Can Life Be Easier? — You Get What You Focus On
Life can be heaven or hell, it can be a game or it can be incredibly hard work, it can be a ride or a horror show.
Both positive and negative situations, feelings and experiences exist in a near equal amount in our lives, we’re just not always consciously aware of both.
With so many inputs every day our mind has to filter out a vast majority.
Our mind does most of the work without us being aware of it, taking in, identifying, and dealing with most of the inputs that it receives.
It runs every internal process, deals with every outside stimulus, and even has the time to judge what is important enough to be made conscious and what is not, all in less than a second.
It chooses the most important, imminent and consequential things to bring to our conscious awareness and deals with the rest subconsciously.
The problem with this is that it leaves us incredibly unaware of the things happening around us, which does not mean they do not exist.
For example, you were not aware of the fact that the chair you’re sitting on is pressed against your leg, that the shirt you’re wearing is lying on your shoulders or that your tongue cannot find a good spot to fit inside your mouth.
