There\u2019s a story of a Zen master who falls off the edge of a cliff. As he falls, he grabs a berry bush sticking out of the cliff wall to keep from falling all the way down. To make matters worse, there’s a hungry tiger that sits at the bottom waiting for him. Knowing that he can’t hang on for much longer, what does the Zen master do? With his last ounce of strength, he picks a berry, puts it in his mouth, and enjoys it. End of story.<\/p>\n

Being Present & How it Can Grow Your Success<\/h2>\n

So what does that mean for us? It means that being present is vital. It means that it\u2019s not the situation that creates your outcomes in life; it\u2019s always your reaction to the situation<\/a><\/span> that will determine your life.<\/p>\n

It’s Not Your Circumstance, It’s You<\/h3>\n

There is a part of you, your higher self, that wants to stay present. It wants to be with what you\u2019re doing and where you\u2019re at in any given moment, no matter what\u2019s happening around you.<\/p>\n

If you feel stuck, or like things aren\u2019t moving or changing fast enough, or whatever negative weight you\u2019re feeling, it\u2019s because you\u2019re not 100%, present with whatever is at your feet, even if it seems crappy.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the problem. You\u2019re thinking, \u201cHarv, you\u2019re not giving me the answer that I want! I want to make a move and feel more satisfied now!\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to tell you something you\u2019re going to hate: If you can\u2019t be happy where you are<\/a><\/span>, you aren\u2019t going to be happy in the next place either. I firmly believe how you do anything is how you do everything.<\/p>\n

While you are in this job\/business you hate, practice enjoying where you\u2019re at now<\/strong>. No matter the specifics of your unhappy situation, find the good in it while being present.<\/p>\nIf you can\u2019t be happy where you are, you aren\u2019t going to be happy in the next place either. <\/a><\/span>Share on X<\/a><\/span>\n

Change Your Mind, Change Your Life<\/h3>\n

I am going to tell you something you\u2019re not going to believe.<\/p>\n

When you can do this, magic is going to happen. Something will unfold and call to you, and another opportunity is going to be standing right in front of you. Now, you can move to it with grace and without fear.<\/p>\n

Why?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s because you\u2019re coming to your life with a positive and enlightened energy instead of a fear-based, negative, contraction-based energy. This negative energy is only going to infect your next location. You probably won\u2019t even see the next opportunity coming with this clouded vision.<\/p>\n

I want you to do something totally counter-intuitive: Act as if you\u2019re going to be at that crappy job for the next 25 years, and you\u2019re not going anywhere.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the area of life we\u2019re talking about that you\u2019re dissatisfied with, find the satisfaction in it. Don\u2019t look for anything outside of it.<\/p>\n

Even if you end up doing this for 30 days, 10 days, or three months, it doesn\u2019t matter; find happiness where you\u2019re at and just be open to the new things that come into your life.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Silver Lining will Serve You<\/h3>\n

The point isn\u2019t that you blindly accept people crossing your boundaries. Nor should you be a doormat in clearly unacceptable, intolerable situations that aren\u2019t safe.<\/p>\n

The point is that the satisfaction we\u2019re all looking for \u2014 from who we want to be, to what we want to do, to what we want to have, isn\u2019t something you can attain.<\/p>\n

Just like your purpose or your calling, you don\u2019t find your calling. Your calling finds you. You\u2019ll know it when you are engrossed in present love<\/a> <\/span>and passion of doing something, and you\u2019re not even thinking about it.<\/p>\n

When the work comes from joy, happiness, passion, and excitement, that\u2019s how you know. It comes from thinking, \u201cI love doing this. When I\u2019m doing this, I\u2019m in my flow.\u201d<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t have to love everything about it. I don\u2019t love all the logistics about all of my workshops, courses, and webinars, but I love being in the moment and speaking with people around the world!<\/p>\n

This is the fruit of being present and finding satisfaction now, even when it seems like there is none to find. This is how true happiness and success find you.<\/p>\n
