What Are You Seeking?

In life we grow up wanting things, we hope to attain something more. We see others who have ‘made it’ based on what is put out there and we may want to be that something more. Generally speaking, we all want our lives to be better, maybe we want to be happier, be loved, be more financially independent. We are a species that wants more and that’s ok.

However, how many of us actually make it, how many of us actually can say – “I have succeeded” or “I am happy”. Some of us use the various amount of tools out there from being more focused or practicing the art of meditation or manifesting and the list goes on. Yet we still find ourselves within the same cycle, we still do not get what we want – as the saying goes ‘same shit different day’.

As mentioned, the tools for self development and for change are out there in the thousands and you will find that what is being told is the same albeit being presented in different ways but yet how do we attain that allusive shift? Personally, I think the answer is through RESPONSIBILITY, AWARENESS and DISCIPLINE (RAD method).

How does this work?

The very first step is to take RESPONSIBILITY of your life, stop blaming anyone for whatever that has happened in your life and know that ONLY YOU as an individual can make this change. Once we take that full responsibility we then will start looking internally. ‘We are not here to change the world but to change ourselves, and when we do that, we change OUR world’

AWARENESS is about our daily thoughts, actions/reactions and emotions/feelings. I personally feel being constantly aware is a much better method than mediating say for an hour but then we still are not aware of things. AWARENESS helps us to BE IN THE MOMENT, be aware of your own thoughts – do you produce more negative or positive thoughts, what are you feeling throughout the day, are you aware of what you are saying and how others make you feel etc. When we can master the state of AWARENESS, you are already there.

DISCIPLINE requires us to push ourselves, to break a cycle we are in and to always be CONSISTENT. No matter what change you want to see, you need to DISCIPLINE yourself and to always be CONSISTENT. This is for anything that we want. It can be as simple as waking up just 15 minutes earlier and only you have control over that.

When we can try to implement this RAD method in our lives, we then have a variety of tools to assist us. The tools can only work if you do, Hence, do not fault the messenger if things do not change as the messenger only provides the tools. Ask yourself – what am I doing with these tools, how consistent am I?

The other area is how long does this take?

We all come with various baggage and experience. Hence the time frame is based on that. Let us take an example – ‘I want more money.’

One may ask this for various reasons and would have been manifesting this but this does not produce any results.

Hence, the first question you ask is – Am I taking responsibility for my money? Do I manage my finances responsibly?

What am I thinking or feeling about money or finances on a daily basis? Am I feeling positive or am I stressed.

Be aware of this.

Then be discipline about your thoughts and emotions, be discipline in coming up with a plan.

Now one thing you must be aware about it this – when we all ask for something, we are usually asking for something we do not have hence, when you plant that seed in the soil of your desires, ask yourself what does this soil contain – am I asking for this because I am struggling, because I am constantly broke etc. To change we practice a sense of gratitude or appreciation. You can say anything because the essence of your words carry that element of gratitude and/or appreciation. Then you plant your seed.

For some they will see the growth fast, for others it can take years (I sure know the years part) but we have to try and keep looking at our soil, keep being aware of our thoughts and emotions and it will produce results. Then remember, always be aware – this means – when we say we want more money, it means we already have something, it can even be a dollar so be grateful for that.

You can try the RAD process and you will see the change in some way or the other. The best way is to try it with something small and then it will be easier to work on things you truly want.

And I don’t know if this process would work for your number draw or Toto Draw, lottery or money falling down from the sky. You can try.

Take care everyone and be kind to you and to others.
