You have to stand before life.
We’ll talk about positioning ourselves. What is positioning? Put yourself in a position. It’s all right. But, I’m talking about standing in front of life. Because when you position yourself, let’s assume, several people here.
If I get right, it ends up pushing everyone a little to the right. If I get to the left, I end up pushing everyone a little to the left. So, what happens when you position yourself? Everything changes around you. I do not know if you’ve ever had a great opportunity to get into a very, very busy driving. The metro too crowded, for example. You get on the subway too crowded, sometimes you get in the place when you see, without realizing it, you’re somewhere else, you know why? Because you have not positioned yourself. And it was cool. People took you.
As people were positioning themselves, you took their place. In front of life this does not work. Before life I need to know what I want. One must choose to decide and position myself so that the rest of the people and circumstances position themselves from where I am. And I do not get going on the wave. Each one gives a push I go more here and I go there, more forward, more behind, I fall to the ground … It is not so. That does not work.
And that’s how most people go through life. Without any positioning, being carried everywhere. The moment you position yourself, everything else around you has to position itself. And that makes your life develop in a completely different way from what has been developing until now, when you do not position yourself for lack of awareness. You may have more or less ability to position yourself.
It may be that I have difficulty, I do not know to say “no”, I do not know to ask or to want, or to wish, or to demand certain things in my life. Can be. But it may be that you have all these facilities and yet, be unconscious, going on everyone’s wave. Then he stands. Know what you want out of life. Determine your limits, put yourself in your place and only then will you create a much cooler, much better, much happier life. And you deserve it, for sure.
