YOU Dear One, who you are, your authentic self, is the greatest gift that you have to give to the world.

You want to know how you can be of greatest service today?

Be you.

Do you want to know how to eliminate blame from your life, Dear one?

If you take responsibility for it all, there will be no one to blame.

Are you ready for that?

When in doubt Dear One, when you don’t know what to think, feel or do next, gratitude is always a really good place to start.

Say thank you for something, anything, that you can identify in your current reality that is going right, that feels OK, that you can feel grateful for, or appreciation of.  Let your attention fall fully on that which pleases you, on that which holds promise for you, on that which brings you joy, comfort or relief – no matter how big or small,  and allow all that does not, to slip out of your focus for as long as you are able.

And when things that you are not grateful for once again capture your attention, be grateful for your awareness of them and the contrast that they bring and then once again let them go as you allow your attention to return being grateful.

Repeat, as often as necessary.

Before you are able to successfully take any positive action, (which is necessary if you want to generate positive results) you must first be standing in a place where you are able to see things from a positive perspective, where your point of attraction is a positive one.

And we can think of no better or quicker way to get you there, than with gratitude.

Now back to the question at hand Dear One; What next?

Any action taken that is inspired by gratitude will move you in a direction that you want to be headed.

Do you want to know how best to help them when they are hurting Dear One?

Love them.

Just keep loving them.

[NOTE: This is also the best way to help yourself when you are the one hurting.]

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 you didn’t measure up, that you could’t make it work, or that you realized that you were just too far off course to ever get yourself over to the place where you really want to be.

Make now an empowered moment, an powerful moment, a triumphant moment.

Make now the moment that you decided to turn it all around instead.

Yes, you are strong Dear One, and you do not need to pretend not to be to ask for help, or support, or for someone to lend a hand, or just keep you company.

Just because you can handle it on your own doesn’t mean that you have to.

If you don’t feel like doing it alone, exercise that strength of yours Dear One, and ask, just because.

Don’t miss them, Dear One.

Close your eyes, open your heart and connect with them instead.

You can berate yourself for stepping (or falling) off course, Dear One, or congratulate yourself for being conscious enough to recognize it.

But you can’t punish yourself and step back into the flow at the same time.

You’re going to have to choose one or the other.

So, what’s it going to be?

Going back is not an option, Dear One, and standing still will get you nowhere.

So, it looks like your options really are limited after all.

If you are constantly feeling like you don’t measure up Dear One, that you are not rich enough, or tall enough, or smart enough or thin enough, etc., we’ve got a very simple solution for you that will help you to get over it in a heartbeat.

Stop measuring.
