Loose Ends That Tie Themselves

Apple PowerBook G3 Pizmo

I have come to realise that there are no permanent loose ends in life. Whilst tying up any current loose ends always helps gain progress and clarity, recent experience has shown me that faith in the infinite process of life always results in those loose ends resolving themselves.

Since writing my post on The Law Of Attraction I have had a profound shift in my awareness of my everyday life and my way of being;- areas where I hold myself back and those where I progress with ease are becoming more obvious to me and gradually providing me with the tools to acheive the lifestyle I want.

I’ll give you a working example, which has unfolded over the last week. You may have read about my Apple Mac Powerbook "dying" on me, which has left my recording studio crippled. Well, not to be dis-heartened I simply decided to just get back up and running and not worry about the fact that I have a problem to sort out. In the same day that my studio came crashing down around me I had a booking for my music-mixing services, which I haven’t had for a long time.

What I was starting to see was that it was no coincidence my studio had suffered a setback. It was like I was being told that I need to view it in a different way. You see my Mac is not just something I use for fun. It is a part of who I am and what I do. It’s an asset. A very big one and I realise now that I have to make contingency plans for when my assets falter, so I can still be functioning fully in my creativity, which is the ultimate way I am to make a living.

It may be old and out of date compared to what you can get now, but when you hear the quality of what comes out of it you would know what I’m talking about. My music and studio based business is obviously a fundamental part of what I should be doing with my life. The thing I am best at is composing, recording, playing and mixing music. I have always liked the idea of being a producer and I finally realise that I am!

So back on track….. What was I talking about?…. Oh yes loose ends.

So now that I have a concrete idea of what my life and my future looks like, things just start happening. Or rather I am noticing things that are probably always there, but I’m just too switched-off most of the time. So a couple of days later and I receive a cheque for a music track that I had published with a Library music company nearly four years ago.

I always forget about this and I always get reminded when a cheque comes nearly twice a year. This is just one peice of music I created without much thought and it’s still making me money now, being played on Radio and TV in the UK, USA, Canada, France, Spain & Hong Kong. So the thought for the day is this:-

I have been doing what I always wanted to do all this time, only I was too busy wanting to do what I always wanted, to see it

That is the most profound realisation I have had in recent memory. You see it is all too common for us to not realise we are living the dream already because we have painted a picture in our mind’s eye of what it should look like.

 

 

A no-nonsense way to get the results you want so SIMPLE, POWERFUL
and EFFECTIVE you can toss aside all other self-improvement programs

Wow Rob!

Have a great time in Thailand! I shall look forward to hearing how it is and what kind of adventures you experience. I can’t wait until it is my turn for a trip – all this writing about it, really makes the travel bug worse, dont’cha think? :)

I know what you mean Jenn, but during the time I was putting together my travel journal on this site I felt like I was reliving the experience and it made me feel really excited anticipating the next trip.
This next trip is quite a big deal because I am going to make some very concrete plans about my future there and see if I can bring what is required to make those plans work and they are really ambitious plans the way….. quite scary!
