Be the Architect of Your Life
Today's Affirmation:
I am the architect of my life and my dreams!
R. Buckminster Fuller, or "Bucky Fuller" as he was known to his friends, was an inventor, thinker, and futurist. He was one of those rare visionaries who was able to see clearly beyond "what is" to "what can be".One of my favorite of his many wonderful quotes is, "We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims."It's easy to see the wisdom in a quote like that and equally probable that we gloss over it without realizing the significance of it.We ARE architects of the future. You can easily substitute life, career, relationships, experiences, or potential in place of future. For we are, the architects of it all. We are constantly creating each of these spheres of our existence.The second part of the quote - "not its victims - is also powerful. We sometimes go through our lives acting as though we are passengers on a bus that we have no control over. We develop a mindset that tells us that circumstances and experiences "just happen" to us randomly. Few things could be further from the truth.The fact is - whether we are attentive or inattentive to it - we are driving the bus. It's what we came here to do.Carl Jung had a wonderful quote about this way of looking at events. He said, "When an inner situation is not made conscious it appears outside as fate."The fact that you often create unconsciously rather than consciously does not negate your role as the architect, producer, director - pick your term - of your life. The goal is to bring more and more of that creation into the conscious sphere so that you can drive your life in the directions that make sense for you.So, here is today's task. Think of three opportunities or situations that you want to manifest or more fully manifest in your life. Write them down and place them in strategic places around your life where they will constantly be in front of you. For each situation, list the steps that will help you create that situation in your life. Finally, work consciously this week on ways to bring those circumstances about in your life.Remember you ARE the architect in your life and you certainly are not its victim. Taking ownership will take you far.Follow your bliss. Experience your bliss. Become your bliss.RayRay Davis is the founder of The Affirmation Spot and an advocate for the potential of the human race.
