Often I have made decisions about what
I would like to be and become in my life, what I would like to
'experience' myself as, and would idealize these concepts and place
them into an alternate dimension in my mind, in some possible future,
where I have already done the necessary steps to make that decision a
reality and begin to lose myself within that fantasy of an alternate
future where I get to live the life of my dreams, and will create
such vivid experiences for myself based only making myself feel happy
or as a way to 'comfort' myself by projecting myself into that
idealized world so that I am able to, for a moment, escape from my
current reality where I see there are points that I am not satisfied
with but have not directed myself effectively to change.
What happens is that this 'idealized'
version of self assumes that I have already done the 'work' of what
it will practically require in order for me to be and become that
idea – that picture – and while I am generating energetic
experiences for myself to feel happy and comfort myself with this
projected future reality in which everything 'works out fine' and I
am the 'ultimate winner', eventually the energy runs out and I am
back HERE, where I have not in fact moved myself within directing
what is currently in my life, and I become disappointed because what
is actually HERE in my reality then seems so far from that alternate future reality that seemed so vivid, so 'real', because I had placed
so much emphasis on the experience of it within me – where I made
that experience 'more than' what is actually here and thus become
disappointed when the illusion ends and I see that I am not yet THERE
in that future dimension, which then seems even 'further away' or
simply 'impossible' because it is in no way based on what is actually
HERE and who I actually am at this very moment, in this very breath,
in the current context of my placement within the world, my
relationships, and my standing within myself.
These future projections of idealized
selves are addictive because they serve as a 'promise' or a momentary
'taste' of the ending of a conflict or the resolution of a particular
challenge in my life that I am currently facing or still trying to
suppress, where 'if only' that alternate future were real, I would
'already' be 'done' with what I am now facing or still suppressing which is causing discomfort, conflict, and friction within my
experience of myself because I see that I am being dishonest with me
and not living my life to the fullest potential possible because I am
holding on to fears and self-created limitations that I have not
forgiven and walked through with actual, practical self-movement.
Thus future projections are actually a
point of self-manipulation where I attempt to 'comfort myself' or
give myself an essentially empty promise of a better 'future' where
everything will be alright, so I do not need to fret or worry or
concern myself with what is currently troubling me in my life, where
I have not given proper direction, and to simply allow whatever is
currently 'not working' in my life to continue since I am able to
just project myself into an alternate dimension and experience myself
as 'happy' and 'complete' and thus ignore and disregard what I
require to do and give direction to within my actual living – not
seeing or realizing that when I participate in such future
projections I in fact diminish my ability to do what is required to
be done and actually trap myself within not walking through the
resistances and fears that are currently keeping me from actually,
practically, living and expressing the life that I would truly want,
where I give up on myself and the potential of what I am able to
accomplish due to fear of failure or fear of rejection or fear that I
cannot in fact manifest my desires because the desire itself is not
based on what is best for all.
Identifying the Aspects of Future
Projections
There are some different aspects of
future projections that I notice as I look at this point and examine
the various starting points that give rise to future projections -
- “Fear of Failure” – Creating future realities in order to compensate and justify not moving myself because I have already made the 'decision' that I 'cannot' or am simply not willing to do what is necessary to be done.
- “Impatience/Lack of Self-Trust” – Creating future projections because I have not developed the necessary discipline and patience to develop the necessary skills and create the necessary conditions to manifest a particular point, thus allowing self to give in to the idea that I am not able to trust myself commit myself to doing what it takes to get something done.
- “Addiction to Instant Experience and Energy” – Creating future projections because I am able to experience 'instantly' the 'result' that I would like for myself, where I am only considering how I would like to experience myself within self-interest and not taking into consideration what it would take for me to really, in fact experience that point in my reality, where the 'reality' is not as exciting or stimulating as what I am able to generate and create within my mind – thus giving in to the addiction of energetic experiences that are able to happen 'instantly'.
- “Magical Wishing” - Where I do not want to actually work or be diligent and instead 'wait' for life or the universe or some external force to simply give to me what I desire, so that I do not have to face any point of 'failure' or 'rejection' because I have made this future projection 'more important' and more 'valuable' than myself, and prefer to not risk 'messing it up' within lacking self-trust and self-value, which I place into this idea outside of myself that I secretly wish would just 'manifest' for me because I wish an desire for it so badly.
Self-Forgiveness on Future
Projections
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to create
future idealized versions of myself, where I picture and create
experiences of already being the things that I desire and currently
exist in separation from, and project those points out into a future
reality that is not in fact here, so that I am able to comfort and
console myself and have something to 'look forward to' instead of
being HERE with what is actually here in my current reality and
working with what is here to step by step, breath by breath, undo the
patterns and programming that do not assist or support me while
establishing new foundations of self-honesty and self-trust as I walk
myself to a point of self-perfection slowly but surely.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to separate
myself from that which I desire, which I then project outwards into
the future as some goal that is outside of me that must be attained
before I am able to be satisfied with myself, wherein I am constantly
and continuously trying to manifest an 'ideal self' in an 'ideal
future' based on pictures that are constantly changing and shifting
according to the nature of my desires and self-interest as a response
to me not in fact living my life HERE in the fullness and
completeness that is already here, which I am simply not allowing
myself to stand one and equal to/as.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not
see/realize the silliness of beating myself up and doubting myself
and sabotaging myself just because my current reality does not match
up with a reality that I intentionally created as a fantasy in my
mind.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to NOT slow down and consider if it is actually worth the time and energy that I
spend creating future projections, planning for future projections,
trying to manifest those future projections, and putting off that
which requires my direction and attention HERE in my actual daily
living application in the hopes of being able to sort out my current
problems by creating a better 'future' – not seeing or considering
that any 'future' will only be a consequential outflow of who and
what I am and what I am accepting and allowing within myself HERE, in
this very moment of breath, and if I am not HERE directing what is
HERE, then any future that may result will be one that is
mis-directed because I did not take the time and opportunity to
direct myself and missed the chance to direct me.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe
that I will only be happy, only be content, only be satisfied with
myself if I am able to be and become the pictures that I create in my
mind which are based on desires that I have separated myself from and
to not stop and question WHERE and these desires come from and HOW I
have separated myself from them to such an extent that I have been
willing to put my actual living application HERE in each breath on
hold, as I 'hold my breath' and wait for some ideal future reality to
manifest while my actual life and living goes undirected.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to deny
myself the self-trust and self-will to step by step, breath by
breath, develop and create the best possible version of myself in
this life through patience and walking what requires to be walked
practically and realize that it is in fact possible to change me and
it is in fact possible to live and express me in ways that I have not
allowed myself to before simply due to fear and separation and
allowing myself to exist within the mind instead of living HERE.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to place my
trust within the mind's ability to create fictional realities through
energy as thoughts, feelings, and emotions to generate 'experiences'
within myself that never last and always leave me disappointed
instead of developing Self-Trust within the surety and certainty of
each breath that I take as a commitment and decision to myself – to
honor and restore the stability and completeness of me as LIFE one
breath, one point at a time.
Self-Corrective
Statements/Commitments
I commit myself to, when and as I see/notice myself projecting into
the future and creating a 'better experience' than what I am
currently walking/facing, stop myself and realize that being in that
alternate world will only prolong my process of walking and facing
what is HERE and that the extent to which I am able to effectively
work with and direct what is HERE, is the extent to which I can be
certain that any potential 'future' that will develop from this
present moment will be effective and in alignment with my commitment
to re-establishing me within what is best for all.
I commit myself to, when and as I require to plan and make decisions
in relation to my 'future', write out specifically the points to be
considered in terms of what I am currently walking and facing in my
actual reality and to move myself within the necessary actions and
decisions that will in fact align me within what is best for all as
the most effective placement of myself, wherein I do not allow my
decisions to be influenced by desires or fears or future projections,
but rather aligned to practical considerations.
I commit myself to bringing myself back here each and every time I
notice myself projecting into a future projection where I am already
experiencing some form of 'success' or 'completion' that is not in
fact here as me as my actual reality and do not allow myself to
linger or hold on to such projections because I see and realize that
allowing myself to distract myself with such projections and
'waiting' for some kind of miracle to manifest for me my desires
instead of moving and directing myself effectively in each moment and
being my own point of self-creation.
I commit myself to stop projecting myself into alternate future
realities in which I have already accomplished a task or achieved a
certain goal or decision, or make ANY decisions based on such future
projections and instead support myself within facing what is HERE so
that I in fact walk through my points of resistance and fear, and
PROVE to myself beyond any doubt or future projection/expectation of
the mind that I in fact create me and direct my life – thus I do
not require to project myself into an alternate reality/future in an
attempt to 'find' or 'create' myself.
Redefining Words -
“Future Projection”
“Future”
“Projection”
- An estimate or forecast of a future situation or trend based on a study of present ones.
- The presentation of an image on a surface, esp. a movie screen.
Here I see that
when these words are placed together, one can see the design of
projecting into the movie screen of our minds the estimated future
situations or trends based on one's current study of/understanding of
the 'present'.
Herein the
tendency and habit to project and create as the idea of our 'future'
which is always based on what we currently see and understand as our
'present' – where we take what we currently live as knowledge and
information and create our 'future' based on current understanding –
already here we see the fear of simply living and letting go of
knowledge and information – not allowing ourselves to exist as the
simplicity that is always here and always needing to 'hold on to' our
knowledge as our past, our memories, our 'experiences' as though such
experiences are real or valid when even now, in this very breath,
such experiences are not real – not solid – not existent in this
reality other that in our own minds.
Thus 'future
projection' in this context is the act of projecting and attempting
to create as our 'future' and idea or belief of what will happen,
based on the knowledge and information that we are existing as in the
'present' – or rather the 'now of consciousness'.
Sounding Words -
Future Pro-jection – Future
Projected Actions – Actions
that are not actually performed in reality, but rather projected as
moving pictures in the screen of the mind that takes place in the
'future' like a science fiction film.
Redefining the Words “Future
Projection” into a practical understanding -
Future Projections = For-Sure
Projects in Action
A practical
redefinition of the term “Future Projection” would be to consider
instead of projecting our desired actions into the future as pictures
in our minds, which would be us essentially creating 'science
fiction' films about the 'future' to entertain ourselves with, to
rather align our 'future' with certainty instead of 'possible
projections'.
We can do this
within standing AS the point of certainty, where we are 'for-sure'
because we stop participating in any uncertainty or doubt within
ourselves as to what we do and why/how we do it, so that we are sure
that the result of our actions and accumulations will bring about a
solution that is best for all.
In this way, the
projections stop being pictures in the mind – and become PROJECTS
in ACTION – where we are able to practically take on as projects
the various aspects of our lives and of this existence that are not
creating an experience that is best for all, where we can stop
wondering what should be done about the situation and instead move
ourselves practically and place ourselves into and as action to do
what requires to be done, one step at a time as we sort out and
participate in the greatest project that has ever been undertaken
within existence – the establishment of Heaven on Earth.
Thus instead of
allowing self to become trapped in science fiction pictures within
the mind as 'future projections' of what would be 'cool' in some
alternate reality 'future', we place ourselves HERE and bring HERE as
for-sure projects that will in fact result in a world that is best
for all in ways that previously were only considered in science
fiction.
I commit myself to
live as for-sure projects in action that which will bring
about what we have all truly desired within what is best for all and
to stop, forgive, and let go of 'future projections' that only exist
in make-belief.
