Four Steps to Succeed Here and Now
by Doug Nielson “The greatest day of your life is the day that you decide that your life is your own, that ultimately you are at the helm. This awesome journey called life is yours, and you are responsible for the quality of it. Saying yes to this Provident journey is the most important yes you can give. Rising above and being worthy of your challenges is the greatest honor that can be bestowed. This is life. Live each moment with dignity here and now!” >Take life by the helm! This is the #1 principle of happiness, success and fulfillment! Being at the helm is largely a matter of perception. If you perceive you are at the helm of your life, you are and vice versa. You are about as happy or miserable as you choose, so choose wisely. As you consistently practice directing your mind to Take the Helm, you will create a life that you absolutely love--a life in which you will become Unstoppable! The majority of people think that they are in control of their lives, when in reality the opposite is true. Unfortunately, most people live day in and day out as puppets of their environment, circumstances and other people. They are living a life full of fear and reaction. Simply they are living a life of self imposed slavery. Key indicators you are not at the helm:
Key indicators that you are at the helm:
The only time you can be at the helm is NOW--this very moment. Your control in life is in the present. The average person “lives” in the present moment less then 10-20% of the time. The vast majority of a persons’ life is spent in the future or past where they have no control! This leaves them feeling powerless and robs them of this moment. They live with feelings of anxiety or numbness. There comes a time in your life when you must force yourself to stop focusing on the trivial and entertain the significant! Are you focused on the trivial (things you can’t control)? The trivial is found in a) future worries, b) past regrets, c) situations that you can’t control but try to anyway. Awareness is the key to living in the present. Are you aware of how fulfilled you are in life? On a scale from 1-10 (with 10 being fulfilled), where are you? Are you connected to the people you love the most in your life? Are you connected with God or a Higher Power? Are you passionate about your job? If there is room for improvement, this article is for you! Four steps to take life by the helm: Below are four steps to help you take the helm anytime, anywhere. These four steps are keys for gaining control of your life or Taking Life by the Helm! I hope this will help you on your path to live an absolutely amazing life!
More to consider Ultimately being at the helm is a neurological state of mind (an extremely positive and powerful emotion) that leads you to make better choices and leads you to courageous actions! When you face a challenging situation how do you want to handled it--at the helm or not? You are not on this earth to fail, to stir the turd, to feel like a victim, or feel inadequate. As depicted in the Wizard of Oz, you have what you need to succeed. Just like the seed has everything within that it needs to reach its destiny, you have everything within that you need to fulfill your purpose. You are here to live an amazing life, with a greater spirit of hope and vision. Don’t forget your errand. Ask yourself, “What’s the most important choice I can make right now?” Ask yourself this often and notice the power that comes into your life. Look at the helm of your life. Are there hands trying to steer you off the course you want to take? What hands are on the helm? Are there hands of other people--boss, co-worker, in-law, spouse, or child? It could be fear, discouragement, resentment, jealousy, procrastination etc. Perhaps it’s the environment or circumstances that are controlling you. As children we fought tooth and nail to “Take the Helm”. Often as adults, we find every excuse to give the helm away to anyone else. You can mentally take every other hand off the helm and choose to place your hands there instead. Right now it’s your life. It’s your choice. Don’t give your choice away. No matter what, take life by the helm right now! Ultimately, being at the helm is the perception that you are in control of your life. This is based on the fact that you can do your best to impact your environment and circumstances, but ultimately the only thing you can be in control of is your behavior and your attitude. If the only freedom you have is to choose your attitude, you are still liberated. To be at the helm of your life you must do that which seems impossible! Do it. Thank your challenges for helping you reach for the highest with in you and teaching you that you, not others, are at the helm of your life. Three powerful choices Each day you are faced with countless choices. Learning to make these choices more consistently will help you remain at the helm.
