On: What are you supposed to do today?
Your marching orders for today, Dear One:
Shine, right where you are.
On: Navigating your day
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!
On: True Beauty
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.
On: Figuring it all out
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.
On: Being scared
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.
On: What you can do about 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, there absolutely IS something you can do about it.
On: Something you CAN control
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.
On: Who’s responsible for this?
Responsibility begins and end with you, Dear One.
- You are responsible for the company that you keep
- You are responsible for the work that you do
- You are responsible for the choices that you make
- You are responsible for the actions that you take, and don’t take
- You are responsible for your attitude, opinions, beliefs and responses
- You are responsible for deciding what is and what is not acceptable to you
- You are responsible for when you show up, how long you stay, and when you leave
Just something to keep in mind the next time you find yourself looking around for the responsible party.
On: Memories
Memories are not necessarily a true reflection of the events of your past, Dear One. They are more like a picture/a snap shot created in your mind to support a current feeling about an event from your past.
Memories can be beautiful, but they can be damaging as well. Especially when you assign more value or truth to them then you do the present moment.
You can learn from your memories, but be wary of them as well. It is the present moment, the now, that has the greatest influence on how you remember something. Keep this in mind when you attach meaning to an event from long ago. When you do, more often that not, is it simply a way of putting a current feeling into a familiar context.
Be wary of giving too much energy to your memories Dear One, as your recollection of them are really much more about the present then you might think.
On: What is the truth?
The truth, Dear One, your truth is that place from where you allow your thoughts, words, actions and deeds to be dictated from.
- Is your truth fear, uncertainty, insecurity, doubt, or judgment?
- Is your truth confidence, integrity, love, compassion, or humility?
- Is it something else?
The truth is, Dear One, that your truth is what you decide to make it.
