I remember going to see a play (as a child living in Jamaica) titled "This is It!" and the song continued to say "This is it! The moment you've been waiting for." How many of us wait for heaven? Believe that based on our karma we plant the seeds for heaven or that other place :)?
Hopefully most of my readers believe in the concept of "heaven on earth." It's not a destination to strive for but present all around me, all the time. I just have to open to accepting that This IS it. I mean, imagine if when I died they said "well, how was the vacation?" And I look back and go - but wait a minute, they told me that was "the work" and this is the place to strive for?
Today, take the concept of The Power of Now to the next level. Don't simply live in the now but celebrate every breath of it as if this is it. This is the moment you've been waiting for. All your hearts desires, all your dreams, your bucket list of 101+ things, all the words you want to share with those you love, all the service you want to give the world, all the ways in which you live your mission. Now go have fun, be happy and celebrate your greatness you amazing angel you!
I love it when something hits me more than once in a short period of time. The concept of "I can" has been such a thing in the past few days. I'll spare you all the magical "coincidences" through which the concept has been hightened in my consciousness but here's what I learnt:
Most of the time I strive to believe: "I know I can." I can concur my fears, my doubts, my "it's impossible" etc. Yes, the "I can" is very powerful and at the heart of my favorite affirmation: "I am that I am."
Then there are times when I don't really believe in the depth of me that "I can." So I don't feel confident in knowing that I can. At times like these I have learnt it pays to fake it! The more I fake it to myself the sooner I'll start to truly believe it. That's the "I think I can."
Try this form of faking it (to yourself) this week and comment on what you learnt about this powerful concept.
