Did you know that everything we want, is because of how we think it will make us feel? In reality, all we ever want is a feeling. Yep, a feeling!
\nThe reason we don't already feel the way we want to feel, is because of something going on inside our minds. Our well-intended brains tend to hold us back or continue to operate in old default patterns. The good news is that we have the capacity to figure it out.
\nThe 4-part process discussed in this episode:
\n1. have compassion toward yourself (everything we do or don't do, has a positive intention)
\n2. decide what we really want, and what having that will do for us (what feeling are we wanting)
\n3. feel the feeling ahead of time (create an emotional "blueprint")
\n4. practice thinking and feeling how you want to think and feel
\nThis process helps us be "agents" to act, rather than be acted upon. It opens us to possibilities that we didn't even know were available to us. It increases our agency, and it let's us experience more of what we want to experience! So fun!
