Where your attention goes your energy goes", I start this text with this phrase that a good friend gave me some time ago as an affirmation about the strength of words, these words came to me in a moment of total limbo, where I was moving forward but fear and uncertainty ate me, for the simple reason that I used to see the worst scenario, because I come from a culture where the belief abounds: think wrong and you will be right. But step by step I have learned to broaden my vision and my beliefs.
The word has power, how you talk to yourself, look at yourself and treat yourself is reflected in your exterior. I am not telling you to be an inveterate optimist but to give more attention to the best scenario, some call it: visualization exercise, others call it a plan, take it as you like. Yes I know it is a tool that has changed a lot in me. I used to be a very fearful, withdrawn person and when my friend gave me that phrase: where your attention goes your energy goes, I got a tour of examples where the scenarios in which my fear, failure and darkness were protagonists had come true.
¿Cuántas veces has estado ahí? - How many times have you been there?
I invite you to remember where the best scenario of your plan was fulfilled because it was the only thing you cultivated. It happened to my friend with the garbage, she told me that she only saw and thought about the garbage in the streets, until she decided to turn her attention to the clean, to help clean up, I will not tell you that the dirt in the street was eliminated but she did see less of it and she is grateful for it every day.
It happens to me with flowers, they are a calming element of thoughts and help in relaxation and inspiration. For more than 10 years I have dedicated myself to photograph them, now I paint them, the thing is that every time I go on a trip or just for a walk in the neighborhood they catch my attention. In fact it is a personal way of telling me: "everything is going to be alright". When we took this trip to the beach there was some uncertainty in me because of a situation that is no longer relevant, so I breathed and gave myself to the road, that's when this flowered set appeared.
It was the wake-up call to be present with the occupation of the moment: enjoying the sea and its surroundings. When I saw that mannequin with the helpful gesture of giving flowers and the word love in big I got total certainty of : "You can't give what you don't have" because in that moment I was receiving all that my soul, mind and heart open every day to give or at least it is the daily effort.
¿Dónde está tu atención? - Where is your attention?
If you are reading me is because you have started a process of healing, liberation and creativity, then I invite you to channel the energy with your attention in the best possible scenario, draw, cut and paste images that help that visualization, just in case, keep in mind that this is something every day, is the constant practice of directing your thoughts, your words and actions, especially those that you give to you. Everything starts from within: a baby, a flower, a smile.
Give yourself all the love you want to receive, speak to yourself as you want to be spoken to, look at yourself as you want to be seen. Imagine yourself as this blossoming figure from head to toe giving your best, nurturing yourself. Dedicate tributes to that element that inspires you, what is it?
