Start by asking yourself this first, Dear One:

Do you really need help, or do you simply need to remember just how strong, capable, resilient, and powerful you are?

The reason we are asking is to help you figure out if this is going to be an outside job or an inside job.

It will be much easier for you to find the help you are looking for if you know where it is that you need to begin your search.

So, you don’t know the answer. Now what?

Relish in the fact that you don’t know the answer, Dear One.
Because it is actually a very good thing.

It means that you are not acting from a place of habit, that you are awake, and that your decision will not be determined by an automatic habitual behavior or pattern.

And this is a very good thing, A great thing actually.

• Not having the answer is good
• Not know what to do next is good

Next time this happens to you, try not to sweat it, and try not to “think” about what the answer should be. Try not to turn back to your logical brain to see what habit dictates the answer should be.

• Allow yourself to “feel” for the answer instead
• Allow your feelings, your heart, your intuition to guide you instead

And most importantly, trust that there is a very good reason that your logical, habitual brain did not automatically reply, and is asking you to look elsewhere for the answer,  is giving you the opportunity to give your heart a chance to be heard.

Your marching orders for today, Dear One:

Shine, right where you are.

In what direction are you traveling today, Dear One?  Which way are you headed?

• Are you moving closer to that which you want?
• Are you moving closer to that which you do not want?

Not sure?

Here’s a very simple way for you to figure it out.

Ask yourself this question:

Are you being guided by  your heart, by your hopes, dreams, desires, and a vision of success for yourself as you move through your day, or are your your fears, doubts, uncertainties, and insecurities leading the way?

Your answer will tell you all that you need to know!

Beauty is not something that you see with your eyes. Dear One, it is something that you feel with your heart.

So how do you know if what you are looking at, if what you are seeing is truly beautiful, or if it is simply an illusion, a judgment, a product of your imagination?

Close your eyes.

If it disappears, then you know.

No one has it all figured out, Dear one.

No one.

Not even us.

So let yourself off the hook today and stop trying so hard to be the one to do it.

Remember, Dear One, that regardless of how scared, chaotic, lost, or out of control you feel, that the world feels right now, your center, your home,  is only one slow, deep breath away.

And we are there.

Always.

Do your choices, thoughts, beliefs, and actions reflect your desires, Dear One?

Do they match up?

• If you want more joy in your life, are you making choices, thinking thoughts, maintaining beliefs, and taking actions that make you feel joyful?

• If you want more freedom in your life, are you making choices, thinking thoughts, maintaining beliefs, and taking actions that make you feel free?

• If you want more love, abundance, peace, or beauty in your life, are you making choices, thinking thoughts, maintaining beliefs, and taking actions that make you feel loved, abundant, peaceful and beautiful?

So now do you see, Dear One?

If what you want, is not what you’ve got, there absolutely IS something you can do about it.

There are many things in this world that you can’t control, Dear One.

Thankfully, your thoughts are not one of them.

If the thought that you are thinking right now is not making you feel better, is not bringing you joy,  is not offering you some sense of relief, we want to remind you that it is well within your power to choose another.

Some thoughts can be so overwhelming, so all encompassing, so powerful that it can be easy to forget that you are choosing them.

But make no mistake, Dear One, you are.
