Are You The Director?

How often do you look at your life as if you were watching a movie? 

What if your life at this moment was a scene in a movie and you are sitting on the couch at home watching it...


Scene: You walk into frame...Are you the main character? The hero? The Villain? What do you bring to the film? 
What are your goals and what would you like to see happen for yourself during this film? 
What is the plot? 
Who is your cast and crew? 
Who supports you and helps you shine? 
What does the set look like? 
What is important enough that it's kept for this scene? 
What needs to be taken out of this scene? 
What would a fantastic ending look like? 
What needs to happen to make this the best film of the year?

Then imagine this: You are also now the director of this film...as the director you can edit this scene to fit your vision. 

As the director you can hire those you know will help your film or let go those who aren't serving your film, your vision. Take stock of your life right now, of this very scene and make important changes if needed. As often as you like. You can script your goals to fruition, making them happen as soon as you allow them to. 

It's exactly the same with your life. The film is a lovely metaphor for your life. You are the Director and also the protagonist and everyone around you is your cast and crew. 

Subconsciously or not, they are there because you want them to be. Some may not be pulling their weight, while others may be inspiring you to the highest point every single day...

Sit down and take a look at how the movie that is your life is playing out. 

(And don't forget the popcorn!)
