If you don't know the target, how can you hit it?

“Be Content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.” -Lao Tzu

Now we’ve let go of the past, and figured out how to feel good all the time, now lets figure out what we are going to create with this new power!

I have said many times that you know, right now in your heart, what you want and what it is you were sent into the world to do. If you feel like you *don’t * really know what you want, keep reading!

Everyone comes into this world with certain lessons to learn and tasks to accomplish, this should be especially obvious to my Brothers and Sisters who believe in reincarnation . The way you know what it is you want / are supposed to accomplish, is it is that still, small voice inside if you that says things like:
“I want to be a singer”, or
“I want to be a painter”, or
“I want to be an actor”, etc. It is the one voice in your head that is *always * positive, and supportive. Usually a much louder voice kicks in to tell you why your dream isn’t possible, why you aren’t good enough, why everyone will laugh at you, etc. etc; but that one little voice will always remain.

Your #1 task in life is to listen to and follow that voice.

 

I explain in the video below how to listen to that voice, but I want to give you a quick overview:
1.Relax. The stress you feel is self imposed, and you have to relax to be able to fully connect with your inner most self. You don’t have to be worried about making mistakes; if you try something and it doesn’t work, you’ll do something else. No big deal.
2.Trust God / The Universe are looking out for you. Know that you have a purpose and a mission here; the way you find it is by following your bliss. God is good, life is good, we are most alive when we are doing what we love the most.
3.Trust yourself. As I said before, you’re already perfect  so you don’t have anything to worry about. You have everything you need, right now at this instant, to start building the life of your dreams. If it wasn’t within your grasp, the desire wouldn’t have been placed in your heart.

I want to give a couple of other questions you can ask yourself to help discover what your bliss is so you can follow it.
If you won the lottery tomorrow, what would you do first?

If you had 3 wishes, what would they be?

If you could own a home anywhere on Earth, where would it be?

If you could have dinner with any 3 people, living, dead, or fictitious, who would they be and why?

The point here is to relax and let your mind wander. Let yourself dream like a child, and for the time being put the how’s out of your mind. The what and especially WHY is what is important; the How is a surprise.

Think of it as a surprise party that God is throwing for you, don’t let your negativity make you miss what He has planned!
