Why are they doing these things? What does it mean to us? It gives us an excuse to talk about it and think about them, but does that really serve us to think on all these things? Why do we need the stories that we make up in order to fill the spaces in our lives we don\u2019t know anything about? And most importantly are these stories real and do they really matter?<\/p>\n<p>What matters is that you move your focus away from your partner and all the \u2018What if&#8217;s\u2019 and simply focus on the \u2018What is\u2019. What is happening in your life now? What is right in front of you? What is it that you are working on now? What is inspiring you in life now? The \u2018what if&#8217;s\u2019 don&#8217;t matter.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018What if vs what is\u2019 is applicable to all things that matter in our lives. It doesn\u2019t just have to be your partner: It can be a job loss. It can be any pending decision for your career, for you health for a competition. It is anything that you are or have worked at to create, any project, any relationship, any dream. Keep your focus on the \u2018what is\u2019 because all the stories of what if\u2019s often don\u2019t serve us. It reminds me of the old Cherokee wisdom story of the two wolves that rage within us. When asked upon which wolf wins, the good or the bad, we learn it is the one that we feed. What we give our energy too we feed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/extropygold.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/04\/2wolves.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/extropygold.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/04\/2wolves.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Two wolves within - A Cherokee Wisdom Story\" width=\"560\" height=\"357\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.theextropist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/2wolves.jpeg 640w, http:\/\/www.theextropist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/2wolves-300x191.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>All those thoughts you have about the \u2018what if\u2019s\u2019\u2026 they don\u2019t exist except in your mind and imagination. People think every thought is real, well they aren&#8217;t! They are seeds of change. They are moments of creation that you can latch onto or choose to focus on something else that better serves what you really want. What you really want to create.<\/p>\n<p>It is the emotion and action that we give those thoughts, which materializes one thought over another. If I am sitting here hungry but I want to finish this piece of writing. I will think to myself, \u201cI want to go get food\u201d but I also think \u201cI want to finish this piece while I am in the flow\u201d. Both thoughts are there but which do I choose to give my energy to, I choose the one that best serves me. Which thought do I feed to give energy to? In this situation, it is finishing the piece. So that\u2019s what I choose for my reality by giving emotion and excitement for the finished piece of writing that lies before me. And in doing so, now I will not need to think on food until after I have finished this piece because my emotion and action has allowed me to give solely to this piece of writing.<\/p>\n<p>So acknowledge that you are having a thought but is it a \u2018what if\u2019 or a \u2018what is\u2019? Your power of creation lies in the &#8216;what is&#8217;. Your actions are more clear and directed when you focus on the \u2018what is\u2019. You are more motivated to create the \u2018what is\u2019. You are less overwhelmed by the singular \u2018what is\u2019 than the multitude of \u2018what if\u2019s\u2019.  Get present and focus on your \u2018what is\u2019 and your journey will be a lot smoother and you will create a lot easier and a lot faster.<\/p>\n<p>[youtube=http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=s1Mb9tsnYLU]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we end with someone in our lives we often worry about what they are doing?
