Certainty

Posted on by philipdodson

If you are selling certainty, why are you not using the certainty for yourself? If you’re looking to buy it, don’t, there are no shortcuts that others can provide you with that work.

There is only one certainty, this moment.

Live life for this moment, deal with what is now. Have your goals, then focus on them now. If we all concentrate on now, slowly but surely every moment we get more and more momentum and over time we reach our goals. If we focus on the gaols, we are looking into the future instead of doing. It isn’t the outcome, it is this moment in the journey that matters, what we do with it.

If we are looking for a shortcut, it is because we have no faith in our dreams and goals, as we are not prepared to sacrifice and commit to doing it now, we are looking to ‘do it’ in the future, which never happens.

Buying certainty is an excuse, a way of running away and looking for others to do the work.

Now is here, what will we all do in this moment?

Confused

In countries where food is not plentiful, life is more simple, they have less of most things and people often sit in a group of friends or family and perhaps pray or say something to express their gratitude for what they have and what they are about to eat.

In other parts of the world, where food is plentiful and very often wasted, where people often sit alone to eat, the only thing that happens is people take a photo of their food and post it on Instagram for others to like. Then return to their smartphones and eat, not just consuming food but consuming yet more data.

We’re confused in our thinking that having everything equates to happiness. The people who have the least tend to have the most gratitude and joy in life and those that have it all are often unfulfilled.
