Aaron Doughty explains how chasing external desires creates a sense of lack. Instead, embody the future version of yourself: in 2017, he imagined the YouTuber he wanted to be, adopted that person's work ethic and skills, and gave himself permission to be them. His circumstances shifted when his identity aligned with his desired reality.
The more we want, want, want, the more we vibrationally lack, lack, lack because we're not actually embodying the energy now. So instead, focus on who you need to become and then simply make the choice to be it, meow. This is exactly what I did back in 2017 when I was working that 9-to-5 job selling women's shoes. I knew I wanted to be on YouTube, so what I did is I imagined the version of Aaron that was already full-time, and I noticed that I had a different work ethic. I was committed. I noticed that I lived by different values than the version of me that was working a 9-to-5 job. I noticed that I learned how to edit videos. I learned how to market or how to create thumbnails for videos. Like I noticed that that version of me was very different. So what I did is I simply decided to become it. And by being that version of me, that's when my external reality began to change. So the inside-out way of transformation is to focus more on who you need to become. Simply give your choice and permission to be that version of you and watch reality change on the external.
