Let's explore the multiverse of YOU!

Now, I know what you’re thinking, “Multiverse? Isn’t that a sci-fi concept?”

First of all, yes it is.

There’s a reason why this has become so popular recently. Human nature loves the “what ifs” of life and everyone is curious about what could happen if only you had done that other thing.

But forget all that and hear me out.

Each decision you make, each action you take, creates a ripple effect that branches out to the universe, affecting not just your life but also the lives of those around you.

A decision is not only another stone you are placing to build your path, but it’s also a message you are sending out to the world. To the universe, to communicate who you are and who you want to be.

That’s reciprocated throughout your life. It seems spiritual but actually, it’s just a fancy way of explaining basic Cause and Effect theory: There is always a cause to an effect. There is always a consequence for our decisions and actions, good or bad.

Think of it like a cosmic game of dominoes.

You make one decision, and it sets off a chain reaction that affects how your life will unfold. Each decision leads to a different path, creating a unique multiverse that’s entirely yours.

For instance, this morning, I had a choice between having coffee or tea. Seems like a small decision, right? But let’s say I chose tea instead of coffee. Maybe I would have felt more relaxed, which would have changed my mood, my productivity, and my interactions with others. And who knows, maybe that would have put me in the mood to break out of my comfort zone and do that thing that I really wanted to do. Such as writing this!

And that’s just for one single decision.

I mean you get that I’m exaggerating a bit but I’m doing it so you understand that your decisions are actually super important. Even the seemingly small ones, and especially if it’s a decision that gets repeated.

That’s we call habits.

For example, deciding to hit the gym every other day for one year. Well, that cause will also have a consequence. And the consequence will be bigger because you are prolonging it over time.

Going to the gym once is nice but the effect will be very small. But if you do it for a full year, every other day. The results will be massive.

That’s why consistency is probably the most important thing for anything you do in which you want to become good at it.

Each repeated decision or habit creates a new universe, with new possibilities and new opportunities.

And that’s the beauty of it. You have the power to create your own multiverse, to design a life that’s uniquely yours.

If you want to become rich then just chose to create the habit of studying every day how to master money. Once you do that, you are opening yourself up to a new universe, the YOU that is able to become rich because you are actually studying about it and applying it.

Before, you were not on that universe.

You were in some other universe.

The way you enter in these multiple universes that are all there for the taking is just as we discussed.

By making the decisions or habits that will get you there.

And how do you do that?

It starts with self-awareness.

You need to understand your values, your goals, and your purpose.

What do you want to achieve in life? What makes you happy? What are your strengths and weaknesses? What is ideal way of spending your days? Once you have that clarity, you can start making intentional decisions that align with your values and goals.

Another important step is to take action.

It’s not enough to have a vision; you need to take concrete steps to make it a reality. Break down your goals into small, manageable tasks, and work on them consistently.

Remember, each small decision you make brings you closer to your desired outcome. To your desired universe.

And lastly, don’t be afraid to embrace change. Life is unpredictable, and sometimes, the universe throws us a curveball.

But that’s okay.

Each challenge is an opportunity to learn and grow, to discover new paths and possibilities.

And maybe in your great journey through space and time, you will see that you will enter and exit many different multiverses before you actually get to the one that you feel you belong in.

That’s a pretty fun way of thinking about personal development and life.

Maybe, I love believing there are parallel universes because in one of them I might be playing in the NBA, my childhood dream actually!

So, my friends, go forth and create your own multiverse.

Be the explorer of YOUR space and time and design a life that’s uniquely yours, one decision at a time.

And remember, you’re not just creating a life for yourself; you’re also creating a ripple effect that branches out.

By following your genuine and authentic path you will shine a light on others to do so as well. You will give them permission to also do it.

Inspire them and even help them.

That’s a wrap!

Until next time, stay strong, stay wise, stay healthy!
