You know how it is when you decide to get in a corner of your office or closet and get rid of the clutter? There is way more stuff packed in that little space than you could believe. It can be like that when you aim at reaching your goals and start using tools like The Law of Attraction to get rid of anxiety, depression, anger, stress or other kinds of self-sabotage. There is more junk in the way than maybe you thought.

Self-denial is "the repression or sacrifice of one's own desires". There are other definitions, but that one is what I'm talking about here. It is usually unconscious or disguised as "what's good for me" in some way. You set your sights low on happiness and fulfillment because..."(fill in the blank)".

After setting some goals or just thinking about changing your life direction, all kinds of procrastinating moves suddenly show up. The whole house has to be cleaned - or the garage or the car or the...something has to be done first. Then you will be able to focus your intention on clarifying what you want to do and how you are going to do it.

Sometimes anxiety, depression, confusion, anger, all kinds of limiting emotions, get worse. It is like they are fighting back for their life. And the related physical symptoms want their air-time too. This is a big invitation to procrastinate more.

Here is where you start where you are. Pick one good thing you can do five out of seven days, just to give yourself some space and time to settle down with the idea of everything getting better.

For example, select the busiest time of day for you. Is it in the morning when you get up? If so, get up just fifteen minutes earlier and do something calming. If you have a hot drink regularly, have it, and do nothing else except focus on enjoying it. Do not rehearse the work day, you are not there yet. If you have never meditated, this a good way to start. The lotus position is not needed.

If your hectic time is a lunch break that never feels like a break, set it up differently. Do something different so that you have at least five minutes with nothing to do. Find a quiet spot to check in with yourself. Take a few deep breaths.

When you first start making quiet spots for yourself during the day, you may notice your background noise, the endless stream of thoughts and voices, most of them yours, that runs as though you are in a busy train station. Multiple levels and threads of thought can occur at the same time and it is good to listen to this a little. Your repeating self-denial, self-sabotaging, anxious ideas, or depressing feelings can be viewed for what they are - an automatic re-run of just about everything opposite to what you could focus on to create a new reality for yourself.

Your beam of recognition may initially pump up the volume on this, but then, you take a step back. You are now observing, rather than getting stuck in the middle.

Turning down your automated background noise feels good. Feeling good, in and of itself, attracts good into your life. This factor is almost too simple to grasp. Feeling good is the opposite of all your self-denials, procrastinating moves, anxiety, depression, worries, having to be right, and other complications. Feeling good puts you well on your way to reaching your goals.
