If you are looking for your confidence Dear One, look no further.

It is right here, right now, right where you are standing.

– It is not trapped in some moment in the past.
– It is not waiting for you in a moment in the future.

It exists in the only place that it can, in the only place where it has any power, in the present moment.

Be here, now Dear One, and you’ll have access to all that you want, all that you need, and then some.

Our challenge for you today Dear One, is for you NOT to try and change your world.

Our challenge is for you is to make the choice to simply try and change the way you see it.

Succeed and you will discover first hand exactly how it is possible for everything to change in an instant.

Forgive Dear One.

Let it go.

Smile.

And begin again.

Discipline is a mindset Dear One, an attitude, an approach, a guide, a commitment.
It is not a contract, a commandment, an order, a doctrine, or a law that must be followed.

Discipline is flexible, malleable, adaptable,and strong.
It is not hard, rigid, tough, and unforgiving.

Discipline is the boat on water Dear One, not the rope tethering you to the dock.
It is the compass pointing your way, not the points plotted out on a map
It is the sail, and not the anchor.

Practicing discipline should strengthen you, empower you, guide you, help you to feel stronger, freer, more connected and in-synch with the world around you. Not frustrate you, weaken you, and leave you feeling depleted and restricted.

If what you are practicing is not not serving you in all of these positive ways Dear One, there is a very good chance that what you are practicing is not discipline at all, but that you are just being hard on yourself, and that is not the same thing.

It is understandable Dear One, for you to fear change, for you to be frightened, nervous, or hesitant about the idea of moving from what is known to what is unknown.

But what if we told you that by moving forward, and embracing change, you would actually be doing the exact opposite.

What if we told you that by pursuing your passions, trusting your instincts, taking the leap, and letting change in, you would be stepping back into a very familiar place, a place that is more you than any other place could be, a place that is made up of the energy that created you, that you were born into, and have spent all of eternity in.

The truth is Dear One, that more you trust yourself, the more you let go, the more you allow yourself to follow your heart and to change, to move from what is known to what is unknown, the more at home you will feel, the more at home you will be.

Don’t make Now the moment that you gave up Dear One. Don’t make it the moment that you failed, or the moment that it didn’t work either. Don’t make it the moment that you didn’t get it done, that it didn’t happen, that you realized just how far off course you are, or how far away you are from what you want, and where you want to be.

Make Now an empowered moment, an powerful moment, a triumphant moment instead.

Make Now the moment that you turned it all around.

A dark, cloudy day holds just as much potential for you to witness something beautiful Dear One, as a bright, sunny one does.

You have just conditioned yourself to look for it more in one than in the other.

The trick to overcoming this is simple.

Believe us, and start looking for it in both.

Once you do, once you discover for yourself that what we are telling you is true, your experience of darkness will never be the same again.

Think about what motivates your own poor, rash, unkind, thoughtless, fearful, impulsive, or aggressive behavior Dear One.

Is it an intentional desire to hurt, upset, inconvenience, or distress those around you, or is it something else?

Just something to consider before you take their words, actions, or behaviors personally.
