Have you ever listened to somebody define anxiety in precisely the way that would modify it fully?
I'll never forget sitting in class and having my master coach say to everyone, "Now lots of things are going to change in your life, and this can bring up some hysteria, but just think of anxiety as new things going down. "
Woah.
New things occuring? I've never thought of it like that before. When we get down to define anxiety in a firm sense, it's a honest feeling of worry or uneasiness about a situation that truly has a little bit of doubt surrounding it. What could actually happen next? What will the end result be? In a way, anxiety is a fantastic indicator of forward thinking or "row boat thinking," a phrase I have recently coined.
What's the thought behind "row boat thinking?"
Each of us are given a fascinating narrative all thoughout our lives that sounds a lot like this..."I'll be ecstatic when that occurs. It will all turn out when I arrive there. " The problem is, we are rowing toward this island that doesn't exist. We think it's there, but it's one of the best made mirages we have ever experienced. It's sexy. It's beguiling. It is simply enough to keep us grasping and thirsting for more. But there's great danger in this kind of thinking meanging that anxiousness can be our honest indicator that we are basically caught in the activity of doing it in the first place.
Living in the future can have as many negative complications as living in the past. Everyone knows what it is like to need to escape our past, but I am going to venture to say that we must avoid living in the future just as much. We can get stuck in some place, a particularly unsure place, that honestly is beyond our control. Should you set targets and have a grand vision for what you want out of your life? Definitely. But the danger is building the basis of your happiness on such a place.
The one guarantee I am able to make you about this life is that it'll change. You cannot go to the past, the present is changeable at any moment and the future is to be decided.
So what can we do?
That uncertainty...love it. Embrace the hell out of it. The unsure places in your life are opportunities to have nothing short than true magic knock your socks off. Do you truly know what is going to occur? Of course not. Will you try to project as much as is possible? Yes, we've all done that haven't we? But when you start coming back to the present time, over and over again because our minds never stop getting distracted, you get to fully be here. Here is a excellent spot to be. Start actually seeing what is occurring around you rather than hiding and spending a lot of time distracting yourself from everything that is not in this moment.
So all nervousness really is, when it comes down to it, is new things going down. Love that feeling and sit with it. Basically take a little time to really feel the anxiety in your gut and then take a moment to start to comprehend why it's coming up. "In this moment, what is the thing that's happening at this time that is new?" When you attempt to do that, well, things become more fun. But when you stop living in times to come the anxiousness disipates and begins to leave altogether.
It's all about how we define anxiety in the first instance.
