Do you think that you could decide right now, Dear One, that you are going to look for, acknowledge, and speak of, only the best in every person that you interact with today?
It probably won’t be an easy thing for you to do, but we promise you that what you’ll discover on the other side will totally be worth it.
Are you up for the challenge?
Did you know that it takes just as much effort to create a connection to source, Dear One, as it does to lose one?
If you should find yourself in a state of disconnection, please don’t be intimidated or discouraged by the effort that you think it will take to reconnect.
Because the truth is that the only effort that is required is the effort that it takes for you to become aware of your state of disconnection and make up your mind to flip the switch.
Imagine if you can for a minute, Dear One, things exactly as you want them to be.
Imagine having everything that you want, having everything that you need, having every single thing that you desire for yourself, and then some.
Are you doing it? Are you picturing it? Are you imagining what that would look like, feel like, and be like for you to have it all?
Is the thought making you smile? Making you feel good?
Good. Keep doing that!
Contrary to popular opinion, Dear One, action is not necessarily the best remedy for overcoming fear.
We would never ask that of you or encourage you to do so.
Why?
Because you know as well as we do that your beliefs create your reality.
So if not through action, Dear One, then how do we recommend that you overcome your fears?
By changing your beliefs.
And that change can be as simple as moving from a mindset of “ I can’t” to one of “I can”.
And then once you have done so, once you have changed what you believe, then you can practice it, then you can prove it to yourself through action.
They are not the reason you are exhausted, Dear One.
You are. You are exhausting yourself by trying to please them, by choosing to prioritize them and their needs above your own.
They are not the ones to doing this to you. You are doing this all by yourself, to yourself.
And you can choose to stop doing it anytime that you would like.
Sometimes a little turbulence can be the price of admission, Dear One.
When you begin to tread a new path, one that you have never taken before, know that the ground might feel rough, bumpy or uneven to you at first. It may continue to feel that way until you cross over it a couple of times, clear out a path, make an impression, and become familiar with your new surroundings.
Bumps in the road do not mean that you are going the wrong way. They do not mean that you have chosen incorrectly, made a wrong turn or that you need to go back. Sometimes they are just the experiences that come along with going somewhere you have never gone before.
If the road gets bumpy, when you are traveling a path that you felt guided to travel, don’t doubt Dear One, trust, get excited, because the turbulence that you are feeling may very well be the entry point into someplace new. You just may be on the verge of discovering the very thing that you have been searching for, that you have been asking for.
How do you know for sure?
You listen to your heart, you trust your instincts, you have faith in yourself and all that brought you to this point.
And then, if you should feel so inclined, you leap.
What you didn’t do then, Dear One, is and will always be so much less significant than what you are doing now.
You’ve got to make a choice, Dear One. So why not choose the one that makes you happy?
No matter what the question is, why not choose happiness as your answer?
Why not let happiness be your motivation, above all else?
There is no guarantee that when you do, that things are going to work out the way that you want them to, the way that you are expecting them to. But, what is guaranteed, Dear One, is that when happiness is guiding you, you can absolutely trust that whatever the outcome is, it will be moving you in a direction that you want to be headed.
Everyone is a teacher, Dear One.
Everyone around you has something to teach you.
Yes, everyone.
But here is the thing.
The value, the importance, the significance, the impact of the lessons that they have to share with you has practically nothing to do with how good of a teacher they are, and absolutely everything to do with how of good of a student you choose to be.
Yes, you are strong Dear One, and you do not need to pretend not to be to ask for help, or support, or for someone to lend a hand, or just keep you company.
Just because you can handle it on your own doesn’t mean that you have to.
If you don’t feel like doing it alone, exercise that strength of yours Dear One, and ask, just because.
