Transforming “what if”

I am subscribed to the succinct and very inspiring Higher Awareness.com daily newsletter (more like a museletter!). It’s full of gems and worth the read.

Today’s topic was in fact very a-muse-ing: turning the tables on “what ifs” and pondering the more thrilling and positive potential of life.

Here are a few examples that bloomed in my mind upon reading today’s inspirational message:

What if…I were audacious? What would I do differently right now to get to where I want to be?

What if…I were in excellent health? What would I be eating (or doing) right now?

What if…I decided to believe that I am extremely talented and creative, right now, as I am? What meaningful project would I explore in juicy imperfection?

It gives a whole new angle on the usual, fear-provoking what-ifs we tend to unconsciously marinate on.

It’s kind of like a heroic battle where we get to challenge our inner negator by exploring our can-cans, dismissing our can’t-cants, leading to ”bah, so what, I’ll do it anyway!”

Self-transformation homework:

Take 30 seconds to write down a what-if statement that sparks your enthusiasm. Ponder it. Let it sit in your inner sanctuary, marinate and wisen you up.

Enjoy!
