Get Clear on Your Life’s Direction
Is it time to rethink your goals?
If you keep going in the route you are heading, where will you end up? “I don’t know” may not be the destination you are seeking.
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”
“That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat.
“I don’t much care where–” said Alice.
“Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,” said the Cat.
“–so long as I get SOMEWHERE,” Alice added as an explanation.
“Oh, you’re sure to do that,” said the Cat, “if you only walk long enough.” — Lewis Carrol, Alice in Wonderland
Each moment of now is an opportunity to consciously decide where to direct our mental and physical energy. Are we going to direct it in the same ways we always have or can we consciously choose to direct towards our intentions and desires?
The above exchange between Alice and the Cat sums up the importance of being aware of the direction we are wanting to go in life. That desired direction determines where we will apply our gift of mental focus.
