How to get unstuck and live your dreams

We are going to be cutting through the BS. No more dreaming, it's time to live the dream. I know that sounds really cliche, because when people tell you to live your dreams, it can almost lose its meaning, right? But what does it look like to actually truly live our dreams? To actually take action and be in a constant state of flow and growth? It's one thing to dream, and it's a completely different thing to be living, and if you're not careful, you'll dream so vividly that you'll trick yourself into believing that you're taking action when you're not.

Most people convince themselves that they are working towards their dreams, when what they're really doing is delaying their own destiny, delaying their missions, and I don't want that for you. Okay, I want you to not just dream about your dreams, I don't want you to just fantasise about them, I want you to actually live THE DREAM. I want you to wake up every day and know that you are on the train tracks of the life that you truly want.

This blog is only for those who are ready to turn their fantasies into reality but you don't know where to start, this is not going to be for the feint of heart. I'm going to open you up to a whole new way of looking at success and living your dreams.

You know when people tell you that the goal in life is to arrive to the destination by realising that the journey itself is the destination? You know what I'm talking about though right, like you hear it all the time! It's such a common piece of advice and it's incredibly wise, it's phenomenal, actually. I personally couldn't agree with it more, in fact, it's the one of the foundations and principles of actually how I personally live my life, where it is my ultimate standard is to live my life as someone who has is always arriving to the destination aka the present moment. We hear this all the time, but how on earth do actually do that? Great question, I'll be answering it with an analogy. 

I want you to imagine that reality is like being at a central train station, where there are endless train lines. This will represent the quantum field of endless possibilities, how all realities exist simultaneously, where everything happens at once. I want you to imagine that these multiple realities exist and you can choose which train line you are taking. You can choose your destination, but now I want you to see yourself at the crossroads. So, like every city in the world, I presume there's like a big station where, at these big train stations, you can choose from so many different options. Right, you can choose what direction you are going on, okay, and so I want you to imagine someone who is dreaming their life, just simply being a dreamer, fantasising over what they want out of life. As someone who lives at this station, they never really get on a train. It's this constant overwhelmingness of looking at the screen and seeing all the options and constantly thinking, "oooh going there would be nice", "oooh going to a beach town would be nice, oh. But what about the rainforest?". You get me point right? You're obsessed with trying to find the perfect train line, you think about it so much, it almost feels like you're there! This is an analogy for someone who is a dreamer, someone who convinces themselves that they're living the dream, when they are actually in dream limbo- they are trapped in the burden of possibility.

They are so aware of what is possible, that they are not on any train, they permanently hang out at the train station so often. After a while hanging out at the train station feels addictive that you might even get off on it. But if you're not actually on a train, then you're not going anywhere, quantum or not. In fact, you just feel like you see everyone at the train station getting on the train, boarding the train, doing their thing, and you feel like you're behind in a way, right? It starts to look like everyone else seem to have it together because they have chosen a direction or a destination, not realising that the destination isn't the last stop on that train line, the destination is you just being on the train.

When you're on the train, that train is moving, it's not stationary, it's going from each stop over and over again, to different stops, different stations. My point is that you living your dreams isn't about arriving at the last train stop, it's about you being in the train. Read that again. You living your dreams is not you waiting for you to arrive at the end of the train line, it's you getting on the train from right where you're at.  Once you are on the train and you've chosen your path, you've made a decision. That automatically means that it doesn't matter whether you are one stop away, five stops away, twelve stops away, you are on the right track and each station is the same dream at different points of it's evolution.

As in each train stop is simply a different version of your dream, and when you do get to the end of that train line, you were living the dream throughout the whole ride. It's just that when you arrive at that end of that train line, it's time to get off the train, go back into the station and now choose your next path. Either way, you have moved, either way you are living the dream. 

People think that living the dream is when you get to the end of that train track, when you achieve a milestone. No, in fact, when celebrities or successful people do get there, they learn the hard way that when  they have achieved that grand level of fame, success, or money, they actually didn't find that much satisfaction. They learn that the best part was the whole train ride, or worse yet, they achieve a milestone and feel more unfulfilled than ever. It's because some of us choose the "wrong" train line, or struggle our way through to achieve the milestone.

I'm here to tell you that you don't have to get to the end of the train line to be living the dream, that you don't have to suffer your way through each train station, because if you do you'll miss out on true happiness, true joy, true connection, and I don't want that for you. The sooner you accept this, the sooner you can stop being the person dreaming about all the possibilities all day long, trying to find the perfect one, and get on that damn train. If you don't like the train, get off on the next station and switch train lines- that's the journey, baby!

Remember that just like you literally getting on a train, you can't be on two trains at once, even with the quantum reality model, despite multiple realities exist at the same time, you can't experience more than one at one given moment, you can't be a part of three realities at once. You can only ever be in one reality at once. But, can you really rapidly shift from different trains? Absolutely, you can stop at any part of the train journey, get off the train and get into a new one and that's what quantum shifting/quantum leaping. At any moment, you wait for the next stop, you get off and you pick a new destination.

Look, I'm a former dreamer, I was the person who never even got on the train my train tracks, the reality that I was stuck in is was what I call limbo, and it was the equivalent of, in this analogy, just hanging out at the station, tricking myself into believing that I was going after my dreams, when I knew full well that I was operating at 50% of my potential. Why? Because as a troubled kid that was how I survived a difficult life and that served it purpose then, but it became unnecessary when I was safe. I was so used to fantasising that I was scared to actually experience good things in real life. I eventually realised that I was completely holding myself back because I just couldn't decide, and our ability to simply decide and commit, by being okay with  picking the wrong train is how you create radical transformations. But, until you do that, you will always be a dreamer stuck in limbo!

So, I want you to truly realise that you are one decision away from living your dreams. All you have to do is   first admit to yourself that you have been stuck in limbo, because you've been trying to wait for evidence or gain some sort of sign before you can go and do the thing, but all you need to do is decide. Remember that living the dream is not arriving at the end of the train line, it's just getting on the train.
