Interestingly, what may seem to be going against you might, indirectly, actually be in your favor. And as crazy as that can sound, it happens a lot more often than we realize.
Much in life operates based on requirements, standards, preferences, and priorities. On both conscious and subconscious levels. And is this, precisely, what can keep us from what is not meant for us and ‘redirect’ us to what is. Similarly, there are pulls and pushes in ourselves that can, with or without our consent, sabotage us or take us to success.
Clearly, plenty can get in the way of this magnetism and lead us astray. Fear, conditioning, habits, our own heads and hearts. But the laws remain there, influencing and affecting to at least some extent. So if something just doesn’t seem to ever be right, there’s a chance it’s not for you or it is but it’s not yet the time.
Opportunities abound and we miss many of them while fixating on what we set ourselves on. Yes, some things are just too good to pass up and trying harder is what you should be doing, but that’s something to discern in each occasion rather than always carrying a scarcity mindset that enslaves you to what isn’t welcoming you.
Do your best, but recognize that great opportunities may be available that don’t require you to struggle so much. And don’t immediately discard them due to the assumption that if it comes easy then it isn’t worthwhile. Perhaps you have earned it already so you don’t have to prove yourself anymore for it. It is thus available to you, yet not to others. And it’d be a loss to turn your back on it.
Furthermore, certain paths are not compatible with others. So, the moment you are no longer on one path, others will become accessible to you. You’ve shown you can’t or, by firm decision, won’t walk that one path, so these other paths might do. What's important is to not get stuck believing there’s nowhere to go when that isn’t the case.
What most resonates and is most aligned with who you are, and where and when you are in life, is waiting for you, ready to make it easier and lighter, now more directly working in your favor, not against you. So stop making things unnecessarily difficult and hard for yourself; find those doors that lead you to more for less. And value it.
