I feel the work I do is sacred.
All week long people tell me their greatest desires, hopes, and dreams for their lives. Sometimes they have never told anyone else the thoughts that lie dormant in their hearts. They are often passively waiting for the right conditions and circumstances to present themselves so they may realize these dreams and create a life they truly love.
It takes courage, tenacity and fortitude to create a well-lived life. Most of us are just trying to get by and dodge the next mishap.
Yet, I find deep within the hearts of most people I speak with there is a field of hidden treasures and buried jewels just waiting to be uncovered and paid attention to.
Why is it that we tend to not discuss such things and, in many cases, never allow these dreams to see the light of day?
From what I can see there are lots of reasons we keep this information hidden, sometimes even from ourselves.
We live in a culture that breeds fear, limitation, and lack. There is a survival of the fittest mentality that cultivates a belief that there is not enough abundance to go around and you better be careful or you will lose out and fall short.
The truth is we live in an abundant universe that wants to deliver our dreams to us provided we learn to align with the thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that are congruent with their manifestation. I am not necessarily talking about simplistic law of attraction formulas here that over promise and under deliver.
I am talking about a process of truly aligning with our soul’s purpose and creating from a deep place of connection with one’s true self and higher calling. This differs from letting our socialized thoughts about what our life should look like take the lead.
When we deeply align with our true soul’s purpose, we are accessing the divine blueprint for our life and the reason we chose to come here in this life time. If earth truly is a school for our growth and learning, we all came here to discover our own path and curriculum.
This is tricky business and something we can easily miss by getting side tracked. Given all the distractions in our daily life, how do we stay on track and not miss the true reason we are here?
What I have found is that most of us receive several callings in our life at different times. If we refuse these calls we simply course correct and get the calling later in life albeit a little louder and stronger.
I have seen that by the time someone reaches their late 40’s and early 50’s, most people seem to be getting a very strong urge to live a more authentic, soul-filled life in alignment with their heart’s desires and long-held dreams.
As we age and mature, it seems to become increasing uncomfortable to ignore these deeper urgings and to go unconscious. It is as if a part of us knows that if we don’t listen to this inner voice now, we may leave this lifetime feeling we somehow failed or missed the boat.
So how do we align with these dreams and bring them to fruition?
First we need to listen to our heart. Easier said than done… To do this it is critical to go within, get quiet and enter the stillness where our inner voice resides. From here we can receive the promptings of our soul and connect with our deeper purpose.
Once we do that, the steps to fulfill that purpose begin to be revealed—usually one step at a time. We do not receive the whole map with the journey outlined and a guarantee that all will turn out as desired.
When we begin this journey there can be many obstacles along the way. One of the main obstacles is our subconscious blocks and limiting beliefs that want to keep us stuck in the old familiar patterns that feel safe, yet usually unfulfilling.
It is important to become aware of the limiting thoughts and beliefs and have a tool for dealing with them and releasing them. This is where it can be helpful to have a coach or mentor to guide you along and help you uncover your own blind spots. It can be quite difficult to do this on your own.
What I have seen is that when these blocks are acknowledged and removed, pathways open to align you with your dreams and allow them to come into being. Synchronicities appear with greater frequency and helpful situations and people come to your aid.
Life takes on a magical quality and you are led with more grace and ease.
