2.6 billion chances

Posted on by philipdodson

Every unfolding moment, this second, is a new opportunity to do something different, if we feel we want to. If we are stuck, we can change it.

Over the course of a typical life, that is 2.6 billion opportunities to change something. Yet we feel ‘I’ve blown it, there’s no second chances!’…insane, eh?

Never stay stuck, ignore the fear of the mind, which we alone create if we choose to, and just start something new…now. Now is where everything happens and it is the eternal never ending present moment, the moment that our real life plays out and not in the endless thoughts of our mind and its fears.

Endless fresh starts

There is always another moment to fix anything, to change anything, to do something again…there is this moment, and then immediately following it, there is the next moment.

This moment now is not determined by what happened in previous moments, like a minute ago, or week ago or ten years ago. It is only our choice to attach ourselves to our thoughts related to memories of the past. The past is a memory and it is up to us if we choose to listen to our thoughts about that memory.

Now is a fresh start, followed by another and another…it’s endless. We are never stuck only by our thoughts if we choose.
