Do you struggle with not knowing what's going to happen in the future?
Or struggle with the unknown?
Well, today we're going to talk about that.
"How to deal with the unknown?"
So, how to deal with the unknown?
That's something that I think many people struggle with in our world today.
Most people have this desire to be in control.
We want to be in control of our life, we want to be in control of everything around us because
when we feel like we're in control then we have this sense of security or this sense
of safety.
And we have this belief that that everything will be okay.
Well, everything that we do in this life is based on the beliefs that we have.
Because our beliefs create our emotion, our thoughts and beliefs create our emotions.
And our thoughts and beliefs drive our behaviors.
Well, what if our thoughts and beliefs are incorrect.
Is there such thing as having incorrect thoughts and beliefs?
Or is whatever you think and whatever you believe true for you and that's what really
this life is.
That we all kind of have our own reality.
And we all can believe whatever it is that we want to believe.
And then that's true for ourself.
Well, we live in a world that is govern by laws or principles.
There are natural laws that govern the worlds in which we live like the law of gravity.
You know, if I decide to walk off a cliff, I'm not going to float, I'm going to fall.
And so, it doesn't really matter what I believe.
There's a truth there that gravity exist.
And whether I believe it or not, it's going to function and operates.
So, if gravity exist then could it be that there are other laws or principles that govern
the world in which we live?
Well, we know that there are.
There are physical laws that govern all aspects of the world.
But there are also laws that govern things like relationships and happiness and success.
And there are 3 foundational principles that govern everything that we do.
And those 3 foundational principles are accountability which says that you're accountable for your
life.
And you can't give it away to anyone else and nobody can take it from you.
The second is choice.
Which says that "In any circumstance or situation, you have a choice about 3 things."
And these 3 things are...
The 3rd principle which is the principle of control.
So, you only have control over 3 things.
And you have a choice about what you do with those 3 things.
And those 3 things are their conscious thoughts...
So, in any circumstance or situation, you can choose what you want to think about that.
You thoughts create your emotions which means you also choose your emotions.
And then our thoughts and our beliefs drive our behaviors.
So we can control our conscious thoughts, our emotions and our behaviors.
That's it.
Everything else is just influence.
So, think about that in dealing with the unknown.
So, somewhere I must have a belief that says that I can know certain things.
Well, tell me this.
Is there anything in your future that you can know for sure?
I was going to say, I guess we all know that we are going to die.
And that's probably true.
So they say death and taxes, right?
So, there are few things.
But could that change?
I mean could it change to where we didn't have to pay taxes?
Is it possible?
It could.
But everything that's in the future is unknown.
And yet, what happens is...
Think about this in your own life.
You create beliefs about what will happen and then you just accept that's the way that
it's going to be.
And then oftentimes what we do is we base our happiness based on what we think is going
to happen.
So, maybe I am at a place where I have a job and I have a belief that it's a secure job.
And my job pays well.
And so, I have a belief that (1) I have a job that's going to provide security for me
and my family.
And I'm making enough money to cover all of our expenses.
And as a result of that, I feel safe, I feel secure, I feel happy.
But is that belief true?
Is there such a thing as a secure job?
I don't think so.
I mean right now in our country, we've got a situation where the government workers,
the federal government which is a secure job or a lot of people would say that it is.
A lot of them are laid off right now and not working.
So even though jobs that we tend to have a belief that are secure, things could change
in any moment.
And we could lose that job.
What is the solution in of dealing with the unknown because you could move in to a place
where you are fearful and afraid of everything because now you know that nothing is certain.
Well, it's true that nothing is certain.
But there are things that we can have a pretty good idea that are going to be there.
But more important than that, what we have to realize is going back to the principles
or the laws that govern this world in which we live.
We don't control anything outside of ourself.
But we do control us and how we respond.
So, regardless of what happens outside of us.
We get to choose what we think about that, how we feel about it and what we do in response
to that.
So, the solution to feeling secure and safe about maybe the fear that you have concerning
the unknown is to educate yourself and to gain as much knowledge and skill as possible
so that you have a belief in yourself and you abilities that whatever happens, you're
able to take care of yourself to the best of your ability.
Now, one other fear that a lot of people have is part of the unknown is death.
You know, so what's going to happen to me when I die?
Well, you create your own beliefs.
And the truth is you don't know for sure what's going to happen when you die.
And then we can apply that for everything that happens in life.
So let's say that you're given a task that you've never done before but you're not sure
that you can do it.
Or you think that it's going to be hard.
Well, that's...
It's just a belief.
You've never done it before.
So you don't know what it's going to be like.
And again, we can take anything.
So, anything we do, we do for a reason because if we think it's going to give us what we
want.
Why do people get married?
They think that if they get married that their life is going to be better.
You know, why do people go to a job?
Well, they go to a job because they believe that they're going to get paid for going to
the job.
Well, are there people that have ever gone to a job and not got paid?
Are there people that got married thinking that now their life is going to be blessed
and it's turned out that their life is more and happy than it was before they got married.
So we have this beliefs and we think that they're true.
But all they are is beliefs.
Here's the real solution.
All we have is right now.
This is the only thing that we know for sure.
Is what's happening right now in my life.
And the key to not worrying about what's going to happen in the future, again, is understanding
that we don't have control over that.
So I need to work on letting it go.
And I need to really work on just taking advantage of where I am at right now which is in this
present moment and enjoying this present moment.
If we can get in the pattern or the habit of doing that, then regardless of what happens
in the future, it's okay.
Because we're in the mindset of looking for a positive.
Being grateful for what we have.
And as a result of that, every moment can be a happy moment.
Every moment can be a moment filled with love and peace and contentment.
And knowing that whatever happens, it's going to be okay.
Now, this may be a new way of thinking about things for you.
You know, maybe at first thought your'e thinking, "I don't know that I really like this.
You know, because I'd rather hand on to that illusion that I'm in control of things."
Just not true, If you'll turn your conscious brain on to think about that, you'll realize
that and recognize that.
And so, I promise you that it as you will identifying and understanding more of the
principles that govern this world in which we live.
And striving to aligning your beliefs and behaviors in alignment with those principles,
you'll be in a state of love and a state of happiness in your day to day actions and your
day to day circumstances.
Regardless of whatever is happening around you and regardless of what may look like it's
going to happen in the future, the truth is we don't know what's going to happen.
So, staying in the present, enjoy where you're at today and have an amazing life.
