Cycles: Go round and round and round......when they stop nobody knows.....UNTIL TODAY! My work in my life is focused and centered around adjusting and altering my own behavior. Why do I do what I do? Is it possible to change a behavior? Can I really change? or am I set on a path and this is who I am and nothing can really change? I have plenty of evidence that I can show and tell that would back me up to prove to myself that I have changed. Lasting results are great proof. It only takes a simple step to STEP OFF the path on the way to a new result. This first step, the one that takes me into my OLD PATTERN is usually unnoticed because it seems like this one simple step couldnt be the lead in for repeating that same old cycle. My work is to find that first step. Know the first step.....dont take the first step.....take a new step.....get a new result. Journaling backwards. I have learned that one thing does lead to another. And knowing this I can then track my steps backwards to find the origination to results. When I get a result that I dont like, I can draw, map out or journal to track it backwards to find it. This does a couple things 1) I learn by studying myself, how I make decisions. 2) I begin to see how little decisions are the cause to big things. 3) I also learn that I have been blind to think that a decision in one part of my life wont affect other areas of my life 4) That I can change any part of my life for the better if/when I change simple things. Here are a few Ah-Has of my journaling backwards: 1. Look at a tree, look at a seed, visually they are not the same. Yet, one grows up to be the other. Our first original actions(seeds) can affect other actions to happen in our life and it can be difficult to try and match actions to results(tree) because we tend to look for things that look the same. So when you journal backwards....when you get to the seed it may look different then where you started. 2. Because they dont match, the Seed and the Tree, your thoughts may try to discount or discredit your findings. Consider it for a possibility. I must remember that I am discovering things about myself that are hidden or unnoticed. If it doesnt make sense to my current thinking.....maybe its time to ponder on this new finding and see how it relates or connects. The new person attempting to do this may discount it to fast and miss the connection or the relation. Raising my awareness to find origination to my results has given me insight to what it is that I can adjust and change to create better results. I really believe that I am a co-creator to my life. What I think, feel and do dramatically affects the experiences that I go through and the results that I have. I create....time to learn how to plant good seeds....and pull out the weeds.
