Embrace the Power of Possibility
It feels better—and it’s way more fun!
Too often, we’re discouraged from dreaming big. We’re told it’s audacious, or unrealistic to imagine the most magnificent possible version of our lives. We often accept that our dreams may be too large or too difficult to achieve, and let them go. So as you ponder your coming year, I want to encourage you to indulge in pure, uninhibited possibility.
Move into a dreaming state, beyond the boundaries of doubts and limits. Allow yourself to imagine and be inspired by what’s possible. Envision your life evolving in whatever ways you wish, whether large or small: your health, career, education, relationships, or contribution. And if this is experience is uncomfortable, remember that every great invention started in the imagination of someone who dared to imagine it. Every breakthrough, every discovery, every solution to every problem ever solved came from a place of possibility. So begin dreaming, and get comfortable existing in a place of pure possibility.
Is it just me, or does reading something like that have the ability to instantly improve your mood, too?
This is the power of possibility.
Those are the words of author and mindfulness coach, Tamara Levitt. For those of you into meditation, you may know her from the Calm app.
