Our words are not always going to be comforting Dear One, because comfortable is not what is always going to serve you best.

(But they will always be supportive, encouraging, optimistic and filled with unconditional love.) 

Joy is not rooted in comfort.  Joy is rooted in movement, in progress, in forward motion, and most importantly, in growth.

Think about your greatest moments of joy Dear One.  Think about where they came from. Did they originate out of comfort, from comfortable circumstances, or from something else?

It is not our job, our goal, or our intention to make you feel comfortable.

It is our honor, our pleasure, our delight to you to help you grow, to learn, to acquire knowledge, to move forward, to make progress and experience as much joy as you possibly can.

And making you feel comfortable has very little to do with that.

Toughing it out, working harder, suffering through, powering on, fighting the good fight, even with a great attitude, will never be as effective in helping you to reach your goals Dear One, as getting happy will.

You are already everything that you need to be Dear One, to be valuable, to be important, to be significant, to matter, to be worthy of love.

There is nothing that you need to fix, do, achieve, or accomplish first.

From our perspective, there is only one thing that you are lacking.

And that is the belief that this is true.

But this is something that can be quickly rectified.

How?

By trusting us, by believing that what we are telling you is the truth.

The only time that what they say, what they think, and what they believe matters Dear One, is when you decide that it does.

You can choose to believe anything that you want Dear One.

Your beliefs are not like the color of your eyes or the length of your pinky toe.

They are not assigned to you, or determined for you, by genetics or some other external force in the universe, like a parent, a teacher, or a book.

(Although we know that sometimes it can feel that way)

They are a very personal choice that you make every single day.

And if yours are causing you to feel anything other than strong, empowered, and  good about yourself, please remember that it is well within your power to change them anytime you would like.

If you are not already doing so Dear One, smile, right now.

If you can’t come up with a reason why you should, smile anyway.

Why?

Because it’s the best and quickest way for you to attract a reason to you.

You are the one in control of the flow Dear One, you are the one deciding the direction that things move in your life, you are the one determining what is moving towards you and what is moving away from you, in any given moment.

Do you want to know how you are doing it?

We’ll give you a hint.

• Joy attracts, anger repels
• Love attracts, hate repels
• Confidence attracts, ego repels
• Compassion attracts, judgment repels
• Faith attracts, fear repels

Get the idea?

It’s all you Dear One.

Do nothing.

It’s the only possible way Dear One.
