Let it go, focus your attention elsewhere, talk about something else, allow your thoughts to move on, and it will move on from you Dear One.
Hold on to it, remain focused on it, keep talking about it, continue thinking about it, and it will remain with you.
It’s that simple.
Mystery solved!
Life is change Dear One. There is nothing you can do about that.
But there is much you can do to impact/influence the direction of that change.
Up. Down. Left. Right. Backwards. Forwards.
So many choices. So many possibilities.
And the best part is, you get to decide which direction is right for you.
Remember Dear One, that regardless of where it is that you choose to sit, you will always be the designated driver in your own life.
Never mind what you think anyone else would do if they were in your shoes Dear One. Never mind what you think they would say, or how you think they would react, or what you think they would feel — Because the truth is that it will never happen. No one else ever could, ever will, be in your shoes.
You are the only one of you that there is, that there ever will be. This is your life. You are meant to experience it any way that you choose. We hope that this knowledge boosts your confidence in your ability to make the right decisions for yourself. Remember Dear One, you are the only judge on the panel whose opinion counts.
That does not mean that you should not ask others for their help or for their opinions. In fact, we believe that doing so is very often a wise and useful thing for you to do. And we encourage it, whenever you should feel inspired to do so. There is much that you can learn from the perspective, from the experiences of others. There is a great deal of benefit to be gained from seeing the world through someone else’s eyes.
Just don’t forget, that their choices, their experiences, their decisions were just that, theirs. They were right (or wrong) for them. Learn from them, question them, consider them, but when the time comes to choose, to make a decision, your opinion, not theirs, is the only one that matters.
You are the worlds leading expert on you Dear One. When you trust yourself, you have very good judgment.
Use it.
What you believe, what you give your attention to, what you focus on, determines your point of attraction Dear One.
Like attracts like.
If you believe that you live in an abundant, forgiving universe filled with infinite possibilities, you will attract opportunities, situations and people that will confirm and support that belief. If you believe that you live in a limited, unforgiving universe, that is filled with anger, deception and scarcity, you will attract opportunities, situations and people that will confirm and support that belief.
If you are focused on what you lack – you are attracting opportunities to experience more lack.
If you are focused on what hurts – you are attracting opportunities to experience more hurt
If you are focused on joy – you are attracting opportunities to experience more joy
Keeping this in mind Dear One, we would like to ask you 3 questions;
Decide right now what kind of day this is going to be for you Dear One.
Don’t wait and let your boss, your friends, your partner, your kids, the annoyingly loud guy on his cell phone, or all of the other drivers in front of you on the road decide for you.
It is much too much of an important decision for you to leave in someone else’s hands.
It would serve you well to remember Dear One that each day is a gift.
All you need to do to receive your gift, is to trust and open up to your present.
A lack of confidence in yourself is just an excuse Dear One, it is not a good enough reason not to try.
Get positive. Be positive. Find something, anything to be positive about Dear One.
This is the surest thing that you can do for yourself, in any situation, to change your current circumstance for the better.
What contribution are you going to make to the world today Dear One? What are you going to toss into the pot?
You choose with every decision that you make, every word that you speak, every action that you take.
Are you going to contribute to the worlds frustration, fear, anger, selfishness, self-loathing, jealousy, denial, defeat, despair or complacency?
Or are you going to choose to contribute something that everyone, yourself included, might need, enjoy and benefit from a whole lot more, like compassion, bravery, tolerance, laughter, confidence, levity, well, you get the idea?
When choosing what you want your contribution to be today Dear one, choose wisely.
Remember, you live there too.
We want you to know Dear One, that the potential for joy exists for you in every moment. Yes, every single one. That does not mean however that every moment of your life is meant to be joyful.
What it does mean is that that joy is available to you in every moment. Whether or not you choose to access it is totally and completely up to you. It is your choice, your right, your prerogative. You have the ability, the skills, the capacity to do so, right now, if you should choose to. You were born with it. There is nothing new that you need to learn, to embrace, to figure out, to choose joy.
But, we would not like to see you deny yourself the experience of fully embracing every other emotion as well Dear One – sadness, despair, fear, anger, confusion, guilt, resentment, and so on. They all deserve your full attention when they arise for you genuinely out of whatever it is you are experiencing in the moment. Always honor yourself Dear One by honoring your feelings. Grant yourself the freedom to fully experience whatever it is you are feeling in the moment.
And once you have done so, once you have granted yourself that experience of embracing your current emotional state, fully, completely and genuinely, know that joy will always be there for you, will always be available to you, whenever you are ready to return to it.
