Everybody has a goal, be it physical, spiritual, or emotional; all of us strive to achieve those goals for ourselves. Undeniably, there are times wherein while we’re on our journey to achieve our goals there’d be provoking feelings, the negative thoughts of what if we don’t actually have any progress. Despite that, we must keep in my mind that whatever we do or how difficult the obstacle we’re currently facing is, we are on the right path, all these things happening to us either prepare us towards our goal or it teaches us a lesson.

We should be present on the “now” and shift our focus on the present rather than thinking of how difficult it is to achieve our goal because it is indeed overwhelming so take life day by day, keep in mind the lessons it teaches us since all these things are steps towards our goal.

Are you gonna take the longer or the shorter way home? Do you show up for yourself? 

In today’s episode, I remind you this: Don’t take shortcuts. Channel that feeling you get whenever you feel like taking shortcuts. The quickest way may be the easier choice to make but it might not be the best one. In fact, it could be leading you in the opposite direction towards realizing your own truth and authenticity.

Do you ever think about how our emotions could be so authentic when we are in a heightened state? As I was pondering about Quantum Physics, I started thinking about how we show our true emotions and our authentic selves when we are in an intensified state such as happiness, depression, loneliness, anger, etc. 

Listen in as I talk about my two cents when it comes to Quantum Field Theory and the topic of emotions.
