Look Out, Not Down 17

Look Out, Not Down

What is your posture right now, at this minute? Are you sitting straight up in your chair, head held high looking out onto your computer screen?

Or are you slumped over, shoulders slouched with your head tilted down, eyes tilted up?

Be honest, there's no prize for the correct answer. You can't move forward if you don't know where you are right now.

In order to illustrate my point, look at your posture when you drive. If you sit slumped over the wheel looking down at the pavement chances are very good that you will crash, you can't see what is up ahead. When you drive, as when you live, you must look out, not down. Back straight, shoulders back, head and chin held high. Hard NOT to "look out" if you physically put yourself into this position. Same with your outlook on life. Focus completely on where you are right now and you have no idea where you are heading. If you look out you can see where you are now as well as where you are going, much better for you and the car!

Don't look down, look out toward your destination.

Namaste.
