From feeling to realization; from realization to reality.

Wednesday, June 15, 2022

Before you fully realize what needs to change in your life, a feeling may brew for a while. The key is to pay attention to what doesn’t feel right any longer. For example, you may begin to realize that you need to change your diet, or exercise habits because you don’t feel well. Or you may begin to realize that a relationship you’re in isn’t working because you don’t feel the spark any longer. Or you may begin to realize that your career is at a dead end, and you don’t feel its appeal any longer. Or you may feel it’s time to change yourself because you feel stuck. When it’s time to change, you’ll feel it before you know it. The key is to listen to it.

A realization is a confirming, inner revelation. Your inner voice is the most reliable source of information that you have. It’s either telling you to change, or that your circumstance needs to change. Spend time with it to know which it is, and to what extent you have control over the emerging changes.

Realizations can be confusing, but sometimes things need to change. The key is to keep working positively with your outgoing reality whether it’s within yourself, or in your situation. Listen to the realization for change before you continue down the wrong path. The change you want is on the way, the former things will pass, and the new reality will unfold, but on its own schedule. Don’t get desperate, just change course when it’s time. When the feelings get stronger the realizations will get clearer, and eventually reality will follow. Hang in there and keep your chin up. It just takes time.
