Don’t wait until everything else is under control Dear One, before you start taking better care of yourself, before you start making yourself a priority, before you start spending your time doing more of what you love.

Those people over there, the ones you are envious of, the happy ones, the rested ones, the ones that are feeling good, enjoying themselves, having a great time doing all of the things that they love to do…. they didn’t wait.

And that, Dear One, is the only difference between them and you.

With power comes great responsibility, Dear One.

But you should know that the opposite is also true.

With responsibility comes great power.

The more you take responsibility for your life—your choices, thoughts, words, actions and reactions—and accept that you are the one responsible for creating, attracting, and allowing every experience that you have, the more powerful you will be.

If you don’t like something the way that it is Dear One, don’t do anything.

That’s right. You heard us correctly.

Don’t try to change it. Don’t try to fix it. Don’t try to fight it, repair it or make it better.

Don’t exert your very valuable energy trying to twist it, turn it, mold it, or fold it into something else, into something new, into something that you want it to be.

Let it be Dear One, just as it is.   Let that which you don’t want be exactly as it is.

Decide to let it go and instead make the choice to start again with a clean slate, with a new mindset.  Decide to exert your energy, your time, your heart and your soul into creating that which you do want instead of changing that which you do not.

Trust us. It will be a much more effective, efficient and pleasurable use of your time.

• You know you don’t have to wait until you are sick to take time to heal Dear One.
• You know you don’t have to wait until you are in trouble to ask for help.
• You know you don’t have to wait until you are lonely or afraid to invite someone to keep you company.
• You know you don’t have to wait until you are perfect to be worthy of love.
• You know you don’t have to wait until the end to decide to begin again.

Don’t you?

Something is coming Dear One.
Something wonderfully unexpected is headed your way.
Something that will delight, excite, and thrill you.
Something that is going to make you very happy, and bring you lot and lots of joy.

Get excited, feel excited, be really excited about it Dear One, because it is almost here!

And once you are there, once you are in that place, once you are in a state of glorious, giddy, delightful anticipation, stay there, until it arrives.

The thought of being overwhelmed Dear One, the anticipation of not being able to handle it all, can actually be more stressful then the stress of doing all that you need to do.

So what can you do to reduce the stress?

Eliminate the anticipation.

• Instead of telling yourself “I can’t”, tell yourself “I can”
• Instead of telling yourself “it’s going to be a nightmare”, tell yourself  “everything is going to work out for the best”
• Instead of telling yourself  “I don’t have all the answers”, tell yourself  “I know all of the answers will come to me”

And believe it.

Life is stressful enough Dear One.

There really is no need for you to add to it.

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, now you know what you can do about it.

What if, in this moment Dear One, you decided to love yourself unconditionally, to nurturer yourself, to honor yourself, to forgive, care for and prioritize yourself, to accept yourself exactly where and as you are, to be a peace?

What if, in this moment, you decided to remember that you are worthy, that you are divine, that the reason that you are here is to have a joyful experience of being alive?

If you did this Dear One, would the next choice that you make, the next answer that you give, the next action that you take, the next words that you speak, the next thought that you think, be any different?

People make mistakes Dear One (yourself included).  It happens.

Berating them for it, making them feel badly about it, attempting to scold or punish them for it, is not going to help, fix, or undo it,  is not going serve anyone or anything in any positive way.

Bitching, complaining, ranting, raving, and acting out, while it may feel good and appropriate in the moment, will not help them or you to turn things around, or improve the situation at all. But, focusing your attention and energy on the desired outcome, on identifying a solution, on making things better, on how to improve things from here,  will.

We thought that you should know Dear One, that regardless of what you have heard, read, or been told in the past, there are no second chances.

And there are no third, or fourth chances either.

There are only opportunities, and choices to be made.

And you will never run out of either.

We promise.

So don’t sweat it!
