You are the Filter of Your Awesome Life

“You’ve got to go with what feels instinctive and true to your heart, and filter out all of the other stuff.”

-Alison Goldfrapp

Just like any filter, you should be able to differentiate between the desired and the undesired; letting the desired into your life and keeping the undesired out. Let the desired in to ensure you life is imbued with passion and awesomeness Keep the undesired out to keep your life void of fear and regret. Filter out your bad habits, that keep you from being who you want to be. Don’t succumb to procrastination or laziness, I mean unless you want to, lol. Just yesterday I spent 4 hours playing FiFA with some friends and I feel great today. If you improve yourself, you will have an easier time living your awesome life, the way you want it to be lived. Improvement is in the eye of the beholder. Filter out the bad people and others who don’t accept you for you. If you are ever afraid to tell a friend you like to do something, they probably aren’t the best friend for you. They will always be a burden on you and your awesome life. Filter out the boring, uninteresting activities, that have no place in your awesome life. If you don’t feel like doing something, don’t do it, as it will only detract from time of another activity that could, very well, be a life changer. Learn how to say “No” to most things, so you can focus on the important things.Filter out the sadness, that keeps you from enjoying the world around you. On the other hand, let happiness in, that one state of mind that helps you enjoy the simplicities, as well as the complexities of life. The empire state of mind, where no-one can hurt you. Let good, like-minded people in, as they will keep you on your desired path. You can talk to them about your ideas and will have no problems having fun with them. Let your hobbies in, as they will ensure your days are full of wonder and something good to look forward to. With hobbies come wonder, which may blossom into something others will want to see you do. It’s the one part of any day where you can be yourself with no worry or complications. Let your hobbies turn into wonder, which in turn becomes dreams.

“A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.”
