Here’s a little inspiration for you if you are worried, anxious, scared, or having a desperately hard time. Or maybe it’s for someone you know.
I’ve heard you say, “I failed.”
I’ve heard you say, “I’m so tired.”
And “I’m so afraid.”
I know it’s hard when you’re exhausted and it feels like you have failed somehow.
And you’re so afraid of ‘what might happen if . . . .’
You have to remember: you have done your best, this whole time. What do you think you ‘should’ have been doing? Or ‘should’ be doing even better?
Pardon me, but that’s bullshit. Those are shame thoughts conditioned into you as you grew up under people telling you what to do all the time.
Hello? Are you an adult now?
You do get to make your own choices! How about if you stopped to ask yourself, ‘what would I like to do, be, or have, right now?’
So what if your inner desire is different from what you were trained to do! That’s YOUR desire, not anyone else’s!
You are a powerful force in this world.
Hold that thought for a moment – don’t flush it away with a swish of your mind.
Think about this: if you were not as strong as you are, you wouldn’t have lasted this long, or done the amazing things you’ve done.
Here’s something to try:
Give yourself 5 minutes each:
• to grieve the past. Absolutely not one minute more.
• to dread what seems to be a scary future. Absolutely not one minute more.
• and, instead of fear, try something different. Five minutes, and more, if you like.
Which would you prefer to hang out with? Grief? Worry? Or creativity?
You get to decide.
Intend to keep your mind open to surprises – they really do come. You have to be alert to see them and act upon them.
Make up your mind!
Tell god – or whatever force you choose to believe in – that you’re willing to do Divine Will, and to hurry the hell up and give you:
1. a really obvious sign as to what to do next,
2. the ability to understand the sign, and
3. the ability to act upon it immediately without stress or strain.
Say to yourself, ‘yes, maybe I have goofed here and there, but I’m a good person, and I deserve good things coming to me, and I accept all the good coming my way, right now!’
(If you are into EFT/tapping, tap as you say those things!)
Life is a journey!
How beautiful are you making it? Or not?
Are you complaining about the bad roads? The stupid things people so? The traffic? The weather?
Stop looking at what’s wrong!
Stop focusing on the potholes in the road, and start looking through the windshield!
Drive your life towards your next chosen destination!
Determine to have more fun, be more open, be more kind, more resilient, and better yet, be more of the real, amazing you than ever before.
And break the Fun Meter as you go!
Remember that I love you!

p.s. And remember that the energy you expend worrying, being anxious and afraid is the SAME ENERGY you could be using to do your Dream, make beautiful things, inspire people, create awesome classes, courses, books, coaching programs, crafts, art, music…. (add your own ________)
I send you moon-fulls of love and luck and great good fortune!
