I Dreamed a Dream

Have you ever had a moment when you felt like you were having an outer body experience? It's as if something happened to you, but it almost doesn't seem real. Afterwards, you stop back to think about it and realize that it is real. Do your thoughts drive you crazy? Are you dizzy? I wouldn't be surprised if you were.

Some days, I feel like I have an outer body experience (figuratively speaking, of course). I often find myself wondering how I think of ideas and develop conceptualizations about the world around me. Recently, I thought about managing all of my priorities without having issues. It was an awesome experience. I had a plethora of energy, was consistently organized, and somehow had time to eat ice cream at the end of each day. Isn't interesting how dreams aren't always symbolic of reality? When I woke up, I was exhausted, lethargic, and was almost overwhelmed.

I've heard many times that dreams and outer body experiences are trying to communicate a message to me. Sometimes, I think it's horse rubbish. Then I think about what's currently happening in my life. I recently started working again while managing all of my extra curricular professional responsibilites and family obligations. In my dreams and outer body experience, it was the exact opposite of how I currently feel. Why did I think of the opposing feeling? Was my mind trying to communicate something else to me?

When I dreamed my dream, it was amazing. I felt like I was on top of the world. Right now, I am trying to manage the intricite details of my day-to-day life. I am not sure what my outer body experience was trying to communicate, but I could speculate what it may be. It may have told me that I need to take some time for myself and relax. What if my body told me that everything will be okay and I just need to readjust to my new schedule?

I will never fully understand what my outer body experience meant, but I do know that it was trying to communicate a message to me. Each time I listen to what my body says, I get the results I seek. What does an outer body experience have to do with becoming a confident, self-sufficient person? The answer is simple: everything! People who are confident have learned to trust themselves. They know to listen to their thoughts when they happen (aka gut instinct). When you trust in yourself, your dreams,and  outer body experiences, you will make decisions that will impact the rest of your life.
