When I went first began my spiritual awakening, I started reading Neale Donald Walsch’s Conversations With God: Awaken the Species and Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith’s Life Visioning.

Both raised many questions for me: questions about myself, others, the 3D world, and the very nature of reality.

Most notably, I started examining my thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in ways that my old self never considered.

I began compiling an ongoing list of “what if” questions of the person I wanted to evolve into. Here are the most notable 50.

  1. What if I were to forgo all labels and judgments?
  2. What if I released the need to categorize and classify?
  3. What if I could reframe the world so there is no such thing as good or bad and right and wrong?
  4. What if I never had a preconceived notion about anyone?
  5. What if I upheld the belief that all people belong to the one race, the human race.
  6. What if I could peel away the beliefs and descriptions I’ve taken on about myself based on what my parents, friends, the media, religion, and even science have told me?
  7. What if the Universe is kind, friendly, and always has my back?
  8. What if life were rigged in my favor?
  9. What if I knew in my heart that things will go my way?
  10. What if the Universe responded to my small acts of courage?
  11. What if I hurled myself into the abyss and like Terence Mckenna said discovered it’s a feather bed?
  12. What if I surrendered control of the steering wheel of my life?
  13. What if I let go of all attachments to worldly concerns?
  14. What if I was completely unattached to the outcome of my goals and achievements? My income? My career? The success of this blog post?
  15. What if I was truly unattached to being “great” or seen as an expert?
  16. What if I didn’t require approval, acceptance, recognition, praise and to be seen as impressive?
  17. What if let go of my pride and replaced it with gratitude as my primary mode of operation in the world?
  18. What if I abandoned losing myself in the consumption of things that only serve to cover up feelings of loneliness, anxiety, or other forms of suffering?
  19. What if I abandoned anything that doesn’t challenge my mind, body, or soul and serves no value to my life mission?
  20. What if I threw my phone out the window?
  21. What if I always kept happiness “the main thing”?
  22. What if I literally followed my bliss as Joseph Campbell said and witnessed the Universe open doors for me where there were once walls?
  23. What if I can live happily in the present moment simply by remembering that I already have more than enough to be happy?
  24. What if I did more of what makes me happy?
  25. What if self-love, gratitude, and positive expectancy were the states of being that always ran on auto-pilot?
  26. What if I always upheld the awareness that I have a precious human life?
