You may have wondered why your goals or maybe even your New Years resolutions don't seen to end up anywhere! Most people are making one huge mistake when it comes to setting goals, or as we like to say in Magnetic Mind circles, making a true choice. It's this: your goal is coming from a place of reaction to a perceived problem instead of being made as a pure choice based on what you would love to create for no other reason than you would love to see it manifest into reality in your life!
What do I mean? I'll give you an example. If you were struggling financially and decided you have had enough of your current situation you might decide you need more money. Yes, you say, I have decided to make more money! Why? Easy, you say, because I don't have enough and I'm sick of being broke. Ok, fair enough, but have you noticed the focus here? It's on a perceived problem. You may also say that it's true I actually have no money right now. Perhaps, but you are still labelling your current circumstances as a problem that needs fixing, so when you create your goal, it isn't to create something you would love, because you are stating a goal based on your desire to fix a current problem. This is what most people do but this is not creation. It's problem solving.
So where do structures come into this and what are they anyway? Well, at any one time you have an awareness of your current reality. Call this point A. Within point A are all your perceived problems as well. You then decide upon a goal called point B. This is very different from where your life is right now. Because of the reality gap between the two you have naturally created a tension, like a stretched elastic band from points A to B. The tension is the difference between them. The law of structures states that tension seeks resolution. This means either point A, your current reality, will move towards your goal, point B, or more often than not, your current reality begins to overwhelm the goals probability of occurring and point B moves swiftly back to meet point A. Now there is no tension and life can resume as normal, albeit with another shattered dream and more disappointment.
The point here is this. If you focus on a problem this becomes your point B. You can actually keep creating more of what you don't want even if your goals are the opposite because your focus is still on the problem even if your trying to fix it. This is called a problem solving structure. If your goal is simply to create something because you would love to see it happen and not to fix a current problem, you are now in a creative structure. See the diffence? And the outcomes from these two different structures is vastly different as well. You can create results from both but only one result is what you actually want!
