When I lost it all, I felt powerless. During my darkest hours, I wrote letters to God asking “why?” I received answers in writing. If you have either lost it all, or you are not passionately thrilled with your life, here is how you can turn it all around. It is easy!
If you stop to consider what’s on your mind most of
time, I think you’ll find that your thoughts focus on those areas of your life that you are not happy about.
People who have achieved self-love and who are fulfilling their life’s passion in their work reached joy only by going through a process that was fraught with self-doubt, fear, insecurity, rejection, low self-worth, pain, and hard life lessons.
I compared myself to others who were successful and wondered, “What is wrong with me?” I wondered, “Why is my life like that of a person with a Ph.D. driving a cab?” I would look at women I admired and ask myself, “Why are they successful, fulfilling their dreams in joyful, prosperous careers, while I am struggling?” I questioned myself. I searched within. I wrote letters to God pleading for answers. And I received those answers in writing.
In our universe there is little physical proof about how to achieve manifestation of our dream life. We have been so conditioned to live trusting just our five senses that we ignore strongest sense of all. That sense I will refer to as “instinct.”
You instinctively know your potential. You feel frustrated because you sense there must be a better way. Your feelings and senses are right.
On other hand, you are scared to death of unlimited power and potential you have within. Your past is your comfort zone because it is only way you know. Your unconscious negative thoughts - your complaints, worries, doubts, anxieties, fears, and insecurities - are part of that comfort zone. But your soul, or instinct, knows all you are capable of. Your instinct trusts that you deserve and will receive what your heart truly desires.
So you have a little battle going on inside: self vs. instinct or soul.
Your heart, soul, and instinct say: “Go for it! You can do it. You were born to succeed. You deserve best. If you want to travel to other side of world, you can!” So you then feel inspired or excited. But your self steps in and says, “Are you crazy? How can you travel to other side of world when you don’t have enough money to buy food? Be realistic. You’re a dreamer. This is impossible. Stop fantasizing. Get back to reality.”
Does any of this sound familiar to you? Does your heart tell you one thing and your head another?
Do you feel deep within that you are in this life for a specific purpose, and then does your logic tell you otherwise?
Do you truly believe that one person has ability to fulfill his or her dreams, and you do not? Do you have a talent, gift, or inborn ability in a certain area? I would venture to say answer is yes.
Are you using it? Developing it? Exploring possibilities or experiences you can create in your life because of it? Or, do you avoid that area all together because it is scary to go there?
If you avoid fulfilling your inborn potential, then you avoid your life purpose. You avoid what your heart wants most: your ideal life. This is reason for your frustration, fear, doubt, anxiety, illness, worry, and pain.
I will give you a major indicator as to what is winning in your life: self or soul. If it feels good and right, it is right, and that is your heart and soul winning. That is your true essence coming to surface. When your head jumps in and tells you every reason why what feels so right is logically so wrong, then your self has won and has pulled you back into your old comfort zone. Then you stagnate and, as a result, you feel some form of pain.
The answer to how you create your ideal life is to do what you feel excited about doing. You follow your heart, soul, conscience, and that “still small voice” within that guides you, which is your instinct. You form a picture in your mind of your ideal life, and when you feel excited, you keep reinforcing that excitement with assurance that you can be, do, and have all you picture.
