The Aha's that have the potential to alter life

There's no overstating this.

What we are, our self awareness, builds not just by being tuned into ourselves, but by being as tuned into the messages coming to us from the universe...from everywhere.

To catch those aha's and epiphanies as they happen.

It's a process. The trigger is outside of you. Can we put the hook into it, contextualize it, allow it to talk to us..... The Aha happens. Then to own it.  An aha, once captured, needs articulation and consolidation, else the patterns of the mind and the grind of life can make it go poof again.

It's like a fragile thought, one that's hovering. With the potential to alter life. Is our radar tuned well enough?

This can be about anything....an attitude, a belief, a story you've told yourself, a judgement, or even a creative idea (or a post for me :), anything at all can touch your life...some with the potential to alter it forever.

After all, as is said, life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it (how you perceive it)

I thought this picture said it super cute. When the thought comes, do what it takes to capture it :)


It's a picture of Oliver Sacks, the late well known neurologist and poet, who in his essay on 'creativity and the brain' enthused about, (in two colors, underlined)  'the buzzing, blooming chaos of the mind engaged in creative work...but, contrary to the archetypal myth of the lone genius struck with a sudden Eureka! moment, this chaos doesn’t occur in a vacuum. Rather, it coalesces from a particulate cloud of influences and inspirations without which creativity, that is, birthing of something meaningful that hadn’t exist before, cannot come about'

Tune that radar....trust me....it's so well worth it. And what's more....practice makes perfect fits here as well, you make it practice and it can get into fast track. Enjoy the ride, it's yours after all :)
