Not so fast!
So often we hit a place in life where change is needed because we are not having the success we would like...we get bored...or maybe even have reached a point that we are ready to "Just do it". Is it time to lose a few pounds, get into shape, end a relationship, or perhaps start a new one? Is it about finances or career status? Have your emotions been ruling you? Is your physical tired and in need for a jump start? Well...Im not here to tell you that for $39.99 you can get thin or rich fast. I am not giving you the "guaranteed or your money back" that if you move, or end a relationship it will be the answer to your problems... nope, I am not going to tell you...that if you drink this shake you will lose wieght or if you workout for 30 minutes a day you will look lean and fit! I can't even guarantee that if you take that vacation or save for a rainy day it will make a difference. See, there really is no method to the madness unless your ready to look inside yourself. We are our greatest teacher and can also be our greatest villain. There are alot of quick fixes out there. Goodness infomercials, trainers with meal plans and the latest workouts. Relationship gurus and vacation getaways! Yes they all provide a method to convince you the end result will give you joy and freedom. But does it really? Or are they more plans, guidelines, rules, and guilt if the expected outcome is not gratified?
Take a deep breath and...Exhale- Spend sometime with yourself and remember. Remember what feels right, and peel apart the layers one by one. All that you need is within. Remember what it is you already know. Start with how you feel about what it is your hoping to change. Make a clear definition of what it is that makes you happy and what it is that you desire.
When we feed ourselves with those nutrients the fillers lose thier value. Empty calories are not craved and the added pounds diminish. When we quench our thirst for life the extra cash is not spent on artificial sweeteners. When we we take the time to dream a plan is set into play and intentions water our minds and engage the heart in ways that evoke inspiration, love, and freedom. None of which cost a dime...just time. So please before ya jump in on the next quick fix. Ask yourself why? Take a moment and breath...feel...and truly understand what it is that you desire and what drives those intentions. Listen, and observe your behaviors that follow. A journal is an amazing vessel to release. Your answers will come from one of two places. Fear or Love. Be brave and be honest...the truth will create awareness and that will give you a readiness. Keep it simple... Fear controls us Love sets us free When we do things from a fear base we will always stay idle and under its control. When we come from a loving place we have the open place to grow and be free of all fears.
The choice is your...Take your time. This is your life. Let go...simplify...and be present. Success is not measured by how much money you make, how much you weigh, or even by what titles you have. There is no denying the many creative ways to assist you and support you in your journey. When we create meaningful experiences we open and grow... old patterns break and new ones embark sparking the freedom to be.
Take the time to connect with you...
Be Significant...Just do you! and...Exhale-
