Loving Life Is The Secret To Having A Life You Love

If you want to live a life you love, you’ve first got to learn to love the life you’ve got. Many people fear that by loving the life they have, they will somehow be settling for that life or locking themselves into never having anything better or different. If you’re waiting for your life to change before you start loving it, I’m afraid you may have quite a wait. The secret to creating a life you love is to learn to see your life with new eyes — to literally learn to love what already is.

One of the most important elements of the creative process is an attitude of “positive expectancy.” You cannot be “positively expectant” if you are miserable, unhappy, or otherwise discontent with your current situation. This is not only a Universal Law, but just plain old common sense. Let me reiterate: If you are waiting for something to be happy about before you decide to be happy, you are well off the mark. You need happiness in order to create positive change for yourself.

For instance, if you are in debt and worried about it, it may comfort you to know that your situation is not only natural but quite common. What is uncommon is the individual who is able to look past his or her current situation to a place of prosperity and joy; but that is exactly the state of mind and emotion that will help you through your current situation and perhaps inspire an idea that may bring prosperity you have not yet imagined. Likewise, dwelling on illness and discomfort creates stress and weakens the immune system — prolonging any unfortunate condition.

If your spouse is unkind or unfaithful, you can certainly choose to “fight fire with fire;” but that approach has never really worked for anyone. Instead of resorting to despair, anger, or even revenge, try visualizing your ideal situation and meeting the situation with unconditional love. You may be surprised at the results. Your new perspective and attitude may inspire great change in your relationship; or, your new vision may attract more favorable conditions. You may see your partner become the partner of your dreams; or, you may see your partner leave to make room for the ideal person — the person of your dreams.

Perhaps you hate your job. Do you constantly complain about it to yourself and anyone who will listen? Maybe you like your job but don’t like your co-workers. In either case, you might want to consider a change in attitude; change the way you look at your job and your co-workers. Try compassion, understanding, and patience rather than disdain, frustration, and intolerance; I guarantee you’ll experience a change for the better. Your new course will either reveal a pleasant new atmosphere at work, or it will cause things to come to a head — resulting in a departure and new opportunities and circumstances for everyone involved. Change is change; and it is up to you to make change for the better.

History, literature, religion, philosophy, and all cultures are full of reminders that, “this too shall pass,” so “fear not and be of good cheer!” You get what you’re looking for — literally living into your deepest expectations — so “seek and you shall find.” If you’re looking for problems, there will be an endless supply waiting for you; but, if you’re looking for a life you love, you need only learn to love the life you have — and watch it change for the better.
