We have to act as if. We have to act as if because otherwise we won’t know what to do. Our whole lives are formed around daily experiences and those experiences can change.

Acting as if means starting the path. When an opportunity does exist presented itself you are ready to take it.

We have to act as if because we owe it to ourselves. Acting as if gives us the power to bring our lives into action. Otherwise, we are living in reaction.

The life we want does not exist. But having the ability to act as if allows us to bring those thoughts to reality.

What better way is there to live?

Focusing solely on results puts them farther in the future. But if we focus on acting as if, the result has already happened. We bring it to be. There is power in courage and in action. We can cultivate intuition and understand what can be.
