We have all been conditioned with a habit that consistently sabotages our lives, and that is thinking about the future, planning ahead, preparing for something on the horizon that is not only unpredictable but completely uncertain, unknowable, because the future does not exist. And when we try to create a future, we are undermining the present moment, which is the only experience that we have. It is the only place that we exist, and it is the seat of our power to create. You've never been in your future; you will never experience your future. And yet, we are programmed to plan ahead, to prepare, to think far in advance with our goals, with our plans. But all of this is born out of fear. It is attempting to create a false sense of safety, a false sense of security. But it, in and of itself, the very thought, the very behavior of looking forward, is a point of weakness. It's a point of insecurity because everything exists here and now. Therefore, everything that you could ever want is right here, right now. The only place that you

exist, and that is the deceptiveness, the insidiousness of that programming, because it has you waiting for a future, hoping for a better tomorrow, which is not coming. You are capable of experiencing whatever you desire right now, in this moment, because you are all of it. You are everything now. There is no one else and no place else, no other time but here and now, as you, where you can be and experience all that you wish to experience. This is the great illusion. This is the grand distraction that the world wishes for you to buy into. It is a limiting belief which keeps you stuck in a program, in a system which is trying to create an artificial life. But you see, the creator that you are lives within synchronicity, within intuition, within that inner guidance which is constantly revealing to you what is in alignment. And it is only for a lack of self-trust that you think you need to look forward to the future, that you need to build up to something, that you need to earn something in time, my friends. You don't need to earn

anything. It is only out of a sense of lacking worth, lacking power, that we create this notion that there is something out there, outside of ourselves, in another time than here and now, where there is anything that we deserve or are capable of experiencing. It is a next level for all of us. It is the game that we all came here to play, to co-create together, to inspire an entirely new way of playing within society, to create an entirely new world, to recognize who we truly are, and to remember that everything is here and now, and that by simply aligning our presence with the present, becoming so in tune with life as it is, that reality reveals to us the abundance and the freedom, the peace, the love, the joy that is always already here. And that is when magic can happen, because this moment, here and now, is pure possibility. And by looking to a future, by planning ahead, we overlook the possibilities that are here and now, and therefore we miss the little nudges, the little

intuitions, the little breadcrumbs which are leading us to a life that is so beyond our imagination, so fulfilling, so beautiful that no planning, no preparing could ever create love. Life is infinitely intelligent, and it is whispering to you inspiration in each moment. But the mind would love to believe that it knows better. The intellect is deceptive; it wishes to create safety where there is none. It wishes to keep you stuck, repeating patterns of the past so that you will not recognize this moment and all that it contains. But that leap of faith into here and now, into the great unknown, the great mystery of your true self, which is all that there is, is all that you could dream of and more. And it will support you and nurture you and guide you in ways that the mind and the intellect cannot plan for. Give yourself that gift; let go, surrender, move with faith and conviction that life has your back, and you will surprise yourself because life will surprise you with the infinite love that you are, the infinite worth.

that you are. That will be reflected all around you.

You’ve been programmed to postpone your life

Thinking about the future undermines the present moment, which is the only place we truly exist.

This habit, driven by fear, creates a false sense of safety and security.

Everything we desire is available to us right now, and the belief in needing to plan for the future is a limiting distraction that keeps us stuck.

Embracing the Present for True Fulfillment

The notion of lacking worth and power leads us to seek fulfillment outside ourselves, but true abundance and joy are found in the present moment.

By aligning with the here and now, we can tap into the infinite possibilities and magic of life.

Letting go of the need for planning and control allows us to fully embrace our true selves and experience the love and worth that life has to offer.

Self-perception significantly influences how individuals are perceived by others.

A positive self-image can lead to a confident demeanor, while a negative self-view may result in insecurity.

This internal reflection is often visible in one's behavior and interactions with others.
