When you first wake up, when you first open your eyes in the morning Dear One, this is the time to begin creating the day that you want for yourself.

This is the time to anticipate with excitement, be hopeful about, look forward to, and get ready to move towards and embrace all that you want – and for nothing else.

You should know Dear One, that all of your limits have been taught to you.

Every single one.

Every limit that you think that you have, that you believe in, that you perceive to be true for yourself, has been learned.

A friend, a family member, a boss, a mentor, an enemy, a stranger, a book, a movie, a song, an accident, someone, something, somewhere has led you to believe it was true.

But here’s the thing Dear One, it is not.

The truth is that if you had not been taught otherwise, you would know and believe yourself to be that which you really are – which is limitless.

Want to know the best way to help yourself to unlearn any limiting belief Dear One?

Test it.

You are not better than, worse than, taller than, shorter than, smarter, slower, blonder, balder, funnier,  more talented or enlightened than, anyone in any way that matters or holds any true significance, to anyone other than you Dear One.

The contrasts that you perceive in your life everyday have true meaning and value only to you – to help you find/see clearly that which you are wanting more of in your life and that which you are wanting less of.

The more or less, has relevance only to you Dear One,  and is in no way a reflection of your worth, value or significance as an individual, a citizen or as a soul.

You are all of equal value, quality, significance, worth and height in the eyes of spirit.

If you want to know what freedom feels like Dear One, if you want to know what it feels like to be free, to fly — you’ve got to be willing to jump.

There is no other way.

Before you do anything else today Dear One, stop and do something that makes you smile.

Think a happy thought, listen to your favorite song, hug someone you love, eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, anything at all will do.

If you can’t do it, if you can’t think of even one thing to do that will make you smile, stop, sit down, and do nothing else until you can.

Trust us Dear One, this will not be a waste of your time.

In fact, it just may be one of the most productive things you do for yourself all day.

If you want to know what’s wrong with the world Dear One, and your response to the anger is anger, to the outrage is outrage, to the violence is violence, and to the hatred is hatred, you should know that regardless of how good your intentions are, that you need not look any further than yourself to find the answer.

There is no right answer, Dear One.

There is no right place.

There is no right person.

There is no right job.

There is no right choice.

There is only right now.

So, make the most of it!

When you come to the realization that you are in need of help, Dear One, ask for it – from source, from spirit, from an angel, from a friend, from a colleague, from your family, from a stranger.  Just ask.

It doesn’t matter who you ask, or how you ask as much as it matters THAT you ask.

Ask for whatever it is that you need Dear One.  Asking will help you get clear, will help you to figure out what it is you are really in need of.

And as soon as you do, the very moment that you finish asking – start looking for it to show up for you.  Because by the time you are done asking, help will already be on its way.

Just don’t forget to keep an eye out for it, and your heart open to it, and most importantly, accept it when it gets there.

Contrary to popular opinion Dear One, taking action is not necessarily the best remedy for overcoming your fears.

• So you can stop trying to force yourself to do that thing that you are afraid to do.
• You can stop trying to muster up every last bit of courage that you’ve got to “just do it”, when you truly believe that you can’t, or that doing so is going to cause you harm.
• You can stop repeatedly traumatizing yourself as a means of healing.

We would never ask that of you or encourage you to do so.

Why?

Because your beliefs create your reality.

So if not through action then, how do we recommend that you work on overcoming your fears?

By changing your beliefs about what you are afraid of.
And that change can be as simple as shifting from a mindset of “ I can’t” to one of “I can”.

And then once you have done so, once you have put in the work and changed what you believe about the object of your fear, then you can put that believe into action, then you can start to practice it, then you can begin prove it to yourself through action.

You don’t need to change your reality to begin to turn things around, Dear One — just your mind.
