Each of us has our own internal guidance showing us the way through the confusion. We seek approval outside ourselves, and as a result, lose touch of our own likes, dislikes and desires. We often let our actions be directed by the opinions of others. “Nobody can give you wiser advice than yourself.” - Cicero You’re exactly where you need to be, remember?ĩ. As you’re making life changes, it’s more important than ever to be gentle with yourself and not head into fear-land by thinking about all the things you should have and could have done by now. “The highest spiritual practice is self-observation without judgment.” – Swami Kripalu When we have tons of expectations for what should happen in the future and how people should act, we set ourselves up for judgment and disappointment. “Expectation is the mother of all frustration.” – Antonio Banderas Instead, just try taking one step and trust that when you need it, the next step will be revealed. With this mentality, I spent years thinking about doing things, but never actually taking the necessary steps to create the life I dreamed of. I want to see the whole path and know for certain that each decision is "right" before I take action. It's to enjoy each step along the way.” - Wayne DyerĪnytime I feel uncertain about life or want to try something new, my go-to reaction is to immediately try and control everything in an attempt to create some sense of order in my life. “When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. The point is to feel your feelings and express yourself as you forgive, set new directions and move forward.Ħ. For me that’s blogging, mountain biking and creating new yoga classes. Instead, it’s very important to feel your feelings in a constructive way. There’s nothing “spiritual” or “positive” about hiding your feelings. “The object isn’t to make art, it’s to be in that wonderful state which makes art inevitable.” – Robert HenriĪny time I’ve moved homes, started new jobs, ended relationships, joined new activities, or traveled abroad, those feelings of anxiety and doubt seemed to crop up. Focus on how you want to feel in every area of life and then start doing activities that create those desired feelings. When everything seemingly falls apart, it’s more important than ever to get clear on the direction you want to go in as you move forward. “It’s not about 'what can I accomplish?' but 'what do I want to accomplish?' Paradigm shift.” – Brene Brown Start with a simple mantra every morning and night such as, “I am willing to forgive.” You can even take it back a step and start with, “I am willing to be willing to forgive.”Ĥ. Willingness to forgive someone or some situation is all it takes to create healing. Whenever I know deep in my heart I need to do some forgiveness work, I start with willingness. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.” – C. “Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. Miracles are shifts in perception from fear to love.ģ. When we start to use our power instead of giving it away, we’re capable of miracles. This is a major perceptual shift from playing the victim card to owning your personal power. it's just easier if you do.” – Byron Katie Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. We can choose to see the rejection as a positive thing.Ģ. When we're rejected, we have a tendency to go straight for a fearful idea, such as, “I’m not good enough.” But we can just as easily choose the opposite. I find comfort knowing that there’s always more than one way of looking at any situation.
