I recently was reminded of this dream I had for myself, a goal that would cascade the evolution of creation in my life. It's interesting how when we don't immediately see results of our efforts (those through visualization or action) we get discouraged and let things fall away in our disbelief. I did this with the goal I have. It's really a rather easy goal in the grand scheme of things--it takes little effort, little risk and if it's as easy to create a castle as a button (as Abraham-Hicks say), then it will be mine. Why did I give up on this easy thing? Because when I tried for a couple of months to create it, it didn't manifest. So I'm trying again. And the funny thing is that I keep seeing things that remind me of it--an Oprah episode talked to someone who had achieved this goal, and I just saw something at the supermarket that reminded me of it. It's out there waiting for me to align myself so I can have it. I love that idea.
I heard someone say the other day that they were just ready to hear a piece of advice that had been offered to them countless time and that she had disregarded as many times. One day, she was ready. What's up with that!? I know it's part of the process and journey, but goodness I want to be ready for all those golden nuggets of wisdom that come my way. I have countless books and articles on how to make my life better every second of every day. This student is ready to practice practice practice. I heard an Abe Cd on my drive to the mountains last week that said "Masters want something and believe they can do it." Is it more about beliefs than practice? If that's true, I'm going to live more intentionally and hopefully keep rolling with the breath of inspiration, lighten up when others around me are heavy and keep manifesting what I want rather than the other.
My friend Diane has had a rough couple of years and she told me that she was surprised her friends hadn't abandoned her because of the roller coaster ride. I'm not sure where it came from, but I told her that she had just been busy rearranging her life to position herself for greater happiness. What may seem like poor choices to one person is a move on the chessboard toward happiness for another.
With all that's going on with people, how can we ever assume that we know the outcome of our decisions, particularly the radical ones? Everything is unfolding perfectly, even in the midst of the chaos we cannot see the forest for the trees. The trees still know we are safe, we are well and we are blessed. Remember what ever it is you loved the idea of and set down out of discouragement and disbelief. Maybe this your next step in the evolution of your creation.
