It really is okay to not take it all so seriously, Dear One – whatever it is – even the really, big, seriously important, significant, or scary stuff.

We say this to you not to disregard, disrespect, trivialize, dismiss or belittle whatever very difficult, important or challenging situation, circumstance or event you might be dealing with at the moment.

We say this to you to help you to remember that you can choose to approach it, deal with it, and move past it with ease, grace, joy, confidence and maybe even a little bit of levity, just as easily as you can with intensity, struggle, stress, drama, fear, and doubt.

When you create peacefully, Dear One, you are creating peace, you are attracting peacefulness to you, you are in the process of manifesting peaceful people, events, and circumstances into your life.

When you create from a place of stress, from a place of agitation, desperation, pessimism or fear, you are engaging in the process of manifesting into your life people, events, and circumstances that will bring you more of the same.

Create consciously Dear One, create with love, with excitement, with confidence and hope, and guess what it is that you are going to get more of as a result?

Creation is not just about creating, Dear One; it is not just about the actions that you take to get something done.

There is so much more to it than that.

How you feel while you are doing it matters, so pay attention.

When you think you’ve reached the end of the road, Dear One, when you think that you’ve tried everything, when it looks like you’ve run out of options, and you’ve got nowhere else to turn, remember this:

You’ve always got at least one more choice to make.

Hiding, shutting down, running away, giving up, playing it safe, or acting out, is not going to protect you, Dear One, is not going to lessen the pain, frustration, confusion, discomfort, or lack of abundance in your life, is not going to make it better, or help you in any positive way.

But opening your heart, your mind,  your eyes, and your mouth will.

Instead of closing yourself off, open up wide Dear One, wider than you ever have before and let in the light, make room for something new, create a space for something different, for a new possibility, for a new outcome, a better outcome.

Listen to what we are telling you, Dear One.

It is the safest, quickest, most effective, efficient, and pleasurable way out of any undesired state or situation there is.

There are few things in this world that are worse for you, Dear One, that hold more potential for disaster, than moving forward in fear, than doing something that you truly don’t believe that you are capable of doing, than doing something that you are afraid to do, that you don’t want to do, that you believe is going to harm you.

And accepting your fears as reality, allowing them to define you, to restrict you, to tie you up and chain you down to one place, to one mindset, to one set of limiting beliefs, for the rest of your natural born life, is one of them.

In that moment when you realize that you’ve made a mistake, Dear One, taken a misstep, made a miscalculation, or a misjudgment, it is not the right time to be hard on yourself.

While it may feel like the most appropriate response, we can assure that it will not serve you one bit in turning things around.

Don’t’ wonder if it’s all going to be okay in the end.

Know that it will be.

Why?

Because it’s true.

And because believing it will feel a whole lot better than not believing it while you are in the process of getting there.

Trust yourself,Dear One. Trust your heart.  Always.

We know that sometimes that can be a difficult thing for you to do, especially when you feel as though you have sufficient evidence proving that doing so in the past has gotten you into trouble, has steered you in the wrong direction.

But what if we told you, that it just wasn’t true.  What if we told you that all of those experiences that you have had trusting your heart, the ones that did not work out the way that you wanted them to, the way that you thought they would, had in fact turned out exactly the way that you needed them to.

What if we told you that?

Your heart always, always, always knows, Dear One.

Trusting it will always, always, always serve you better than not trusting it ever will.

No one can tell you what you are worth, Dear One.

It just doesn’t work that way. You have to tell them.

And you do, everyday.

You tell them with every choice that you make, with every word that you speak,  and with every action that you take.

Which statement do you think best reflects your beliefs about happiness, Dear One?

• My happiness is dependent on a certain person or people doing certain things, at certain times, in certain ways, with a certain attitude.

• My happiness is dependent on certain events, circumstances, objects or opportunities being available to me when I want or need them to be.

• My happiness is totally and completely dependent on me, and on my certainty, above all else.

We just thought this was something that you might want to know about yourself.
