Make all of your decisions today, Dear One, as if there was someone standing beside you, holding your hand, encouraging you, supporting you, loving you, adoring you, believing in you, cheering you on every step of the way.
Why?
Because there is.
You have no idea just how big of a support system you’ve got working for you behind the scenes.
Please remember to use them.
Leaping and being pushed are two completely different experiences Dear One.
A friend that encourages you to leap is a good friend indeed.
A friend that pushes you over the edge, with or without your consent, is no friend at all.
When exiting a comfort zone Dear One, you should always do so by choice, by your own free will.
Leaping and being pushed do not both land you in the same place.
Remember that.
Do you believe yourself to be a victim of the circumstances of your life Dear One, 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 month, your year, your life.
You are the author of your life, Dear One.
You are the one writing your own history everyday.
You are the only one who gets to decide what kind of story it will be.
So what kind of history do you want to write for yourself today?
You’ve got complete creative freedom Dear One.
Write yourself well!
Direct your energy consciously Dear One, and it will go where you send it.
You will always pretty much know in what direction it is headed, and it is unlikely that you will ever be completely surprised when it gets there.
(Excited? Yes! Pleased? Absolutely! Overjoyed? Of course! But totally surprised? Probably not.)
But stop paying attention, and hand the reigns over to your unconscious self and let it do the driving, and you can pretty much guarantee that you will always be surprised by where your energy ends up.
If that destination is a good surprise for you, fantastic! That means that your unconscious self is serving you well.
However if the destination is not a good surprise, if you are finding yourself on the receiving end of something that you did not request, that is not desired in any way, shape or form, well then you’ve got some work to do.
But you’ve also got a very useful piece of information in your hands Dear One; a confirmation that you are not paying as close attention as you could be to how you are directing and flowing your energy.
And unlike an unwelcome surprise that has already found its way to your doorstep, that is something that you absolutely can do something about.
Why choose to focus on what is wrong, on what you don’t have, on what you don’t want, or on feeling badly Dear One, when there are so many other more pleasant, pleasing and enjoyable options available to you?
The only way to experience change, Dear One, to get somewhere you have never been before, is to choose to do something you have never done before, to say something you have never said before, to try something you have never tried before, to walk a path you have never walked before, to trust, have faith, be brave, leap.
We know that you know this already.
But we thought that you could use the reminder.
If you want something to be different today, Dear One, do something differently.
You don’t strengthen your heart the same way that you strengthen your biceps, Dear One.
You don’t work it harder to make it stronger.
Reps of repetitive, challenging, difficult, painful emotions are not going to create the desired effect.
The heart thrives on love Dear One, on compassionate, peaceful, trusting, joyful, loving energy.
If you want to get stronger, if you want to strengthen your heart, don’t put your energy into seeking out new ways that will allow you to endure difficult situations, people, emotions and circumstances for longer periods of time.
Seek out new ways that will help you to let go of them instead.
“Today all of my choices will empower me.”
Silly mantra or powerful spell?
There is only one way to find out.
Decide that these words are true for you today, Dear One. Recall them before you make any decision. Keep them front of mind during every interaction. Allow them to influence you, change you, impact your choices – and see what happens.
Words are powerful tools – when you choose to believe they are – when you choose to put power behind them.
Words have the power to build nations and to destroy lives, to spark chaos and inspire greatness.
So just how powerful are your words, Dear One?
We think that today is the perfect day for you to find out.
Don’t you worry about it Dear One, you have most definitely not fallen off course.
How could you?
You are the captain. You are the pilot. You are the one and only designated driver.
You are the creator of your course Dear One. You are the one mapping it out, with every choice that you make, and every action that you take.
Wherever you go, whatever you do, is your course.
If you love it, great! If you don’t, change it.
It is well within your power to do so, at anytime that you would like.
But know that no matter what you do Dear One, you can’t fall off it.
