Now is the time to begin creating the day that you want for yourself Dear One. It is the time to get excited about, anticipate, look forward to, and get ready to move towards and embrace all that you want – and for nothing else.

Learning to play the accordion, paint, teach, or split an atom requires practice Dear One.

So does learning how to be more open, bold, tolerant, loving, trusting, and accepting of yourself and others.

Whenever you are practicing something new, regardless of what it is, we want you to know that it is essential that you also remember to practice patience too if you ever hope to achieve any level of success.

Not because we want you to expect or anticipate that whatever it is you learning is going to take a long time to achieve, because it may not.

We want you to practice patience Dear One, because of your tendency to want to punish, judge harshly, or put yourself down when you encounter something new, when you come across something that you have not yet mastered, when you discover that you do not yet already know it all. (i.e. I can’t believe I missed that, how come this is so hard for me, how stupid of me to have not known that, and so on. You get the idea.)

Why does it matter?

Because you can’t judge yourself, be frustrated with yourself, or put yourself down and grow in any positive way at the same time.

• What do you think would happen Dear One, if you trusted your instincts today totally and completely?

• What do you think would happen if you listened to your heart instead of your head, all day long?

• What do you think your world would look like if you believed yourself to be powerful enough to be the creator of it?

There is only one way to know for sure!

Don’t regret any state of disconnection that you may be experiencing Dear One.

Take advantage of it instead.

The experience of reconnecting with your source, with the divine, with others, with yourself, with nature, with all that is, is a sacred one, a powerful one, an empowering one, an exciting, engaging, and joyful one.

Enjoy it!

We have an important question for you today Dear One:

• Do you believe yourself to be a victim of the circumstances of your life or the creator of them?

Take a minute to think about it before you answer, because your reply will pretty much determine the course of the rest of your day, your week, your year, your life.

Make all of your decisions today Dear One, as if someone had your back, as if there was someone standing beside you, holding your hand, encouraging you, supporting you, loving you, believing in you, cheering you on, every step of the way.

Because there is.

Standing in front of a well-stocked refrigerator will not make you any less hungry Dear One.

Sandwiches do not magically make themselves.

Happiness works in much the same way.

If you want some (or more), you’re going to have to reach out (or in) and help yourself.

You are so much stronger, so much wiser, so much more capable than you believe that you are Dear One.

But don’t take our word for it.

Make today the day that you discover it for yourself.
