“Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
This quote is so simple and direct, but at the same time, it is so complex, deep, and accurate.
The most important variable that stands out of this quote is time.
Yes, once you make a decision, the whole universe conspires to make it happen. And if that is true, why do so few of us ever make our dreams come true?
And the answer, you guessed it, is time.
We lack the discipline to take the time to paint a clear image of what we want to become and what we want to have.
And the ones that do have the discipline to paint that accurate picture don’t have the patience to wait for it to manifest into reality.
The universe conspires to make it happen, but we need to give the universe the necessary time to bring it forward.
We decide to be one hundred things every day.
Can you imagine the universe being exhausted and frustrated trying to keep up with everything you want to be from day to day?
A fireman this week. A doctor next month. Teacher in April.
Millionaire in August.
And so on.
Think about it for at least a second.
What do you really want to be?
Write it down clearly. In detail.
And then start walking gently toward it.
The universe will help you get there.
Trust it and trust yourself.
With love, yours truly, Cristian.
