VENTURING WITHIN

Opening the door & venturing within means the door will never close again. One step inside is understanding.  Step forward as the wisdom is waiting.
There are many of us who believe or at least question the potential for having lived in previous lifetimes.  Reincarnation is a valid question. Some of us no longer question this concept and live by this concept. 

 

Many privately believe that this is not the first time around on earth and that we have experienced many previous lifetimes.  We also believe that many of those individuals we share our current life experiences have accompanied us previously. They have chosen to return with us to experience and learn life lessons together once again.

 

This is part of what we will call “venturing within”.  We know or at least believe in the possibility that we have experienced many lifetimes prior to this one. If this is the case, who are we really and what are we capable of achieving in this life? 

 

Are we to experience a mundane life experience or are we here to create change or do something that is extraordinary compared to day-to-day survival living? 

 

We may have chosen a mundane life experience in this incarnation.  Perhaps in a previous or several previous incarnations we choose a more action-packed experience and now we just want to relax and not go too deep with experiences.  On the contrary, we may have picked a life where we are the motivator of others, where we hold the torch of knowing to assist others through their journey.  We may have chosen a difficult life, perhaps burdened by health issues, or captivated by the insight of others.  The potential life experience is limitless.

 

If we choose to go deeper and find out through discovery either from the past or by what lies ahead, we will need to go deeper and mediate on this focus.  We will need to ask for advice from deeper sources that have an understanding that much goes on beneath the surface of our lives.  We only have the capability of understanding through human interpretation, but we also have a link to the higher realms which exists instinctively within our perception. 

 

Many understand that we are not alone and have guides through our life’s journey.  Some guides stay with us throughout our life, or so it is believed, while others guides come and go according to our needs and growth. 

 

On a much deeper level, our core self is something well beyond what our human understanding can recognize.  It is much more knowing and will assist us when we listen.  So, when we are feeling lost or disoriented, there is always assistance available. It comes through many different channels.

 

Opening the door and venturing within means the door will never close again. This is the passage to whatever we seek.  One step inside is a giant step towards understanding.  Don’t hesitate at the threshold for long. Step forward as the wisdom is waiting for you.

ACKNOWLEDGE YOU ARE HUMAN

Acknowledge you are human, reaffirm your belief in yourself and step forward trusting. You have the strength and the courage to release and let go.  Asking for assistance is not a weakness, it is strength.
Stress and anxiety if left to run unchecked can develop even further into dis-ease!

 

A better approach would be to deal with the stress in life to eliminate anxiety and therefore future physical illness.  Mental stress will take its toll.

 

It is not self-centred or selfish to care for our own needs.  We cannot fulfil our obligations to those who depend on us if we do not care for our own needs.  We cannot feed our children from an empty cupboard.  We cannot emotionally feed our dependents from an exhausted, anxious heart and mind.

 

Some disease is a direct result of long-term stress. If we have allowed a disease to progress unchecked, we should never hesitate to seek professional assistance for guidance and healing.   By making conscious changes in our lives and with care to heal the disease, we will have the tools we need to heal and grow and continue our life’s journey.  Focus on good health and aligning practice to produce this are key.

 

Acknowledge you are human, reaffirm your belief in yourself and step forward trusting. You have the strength and the courage to release and let go.  Asking for assistance is not a weakness, it is strength.

 

You are stronger than you think and nothing that is presented along life’s road stands in the way unless we allow this or believe this.

WHAT ARE THE POSSIBILITIES?

Today is all you have because only this moment is guaranteed; explore the challenges & the magnificence. Truly live your life. What are the possibilities?
Do you acknowledge the significance of mind control and focus, knowing that positive energies manifest as do negative energies? 

 

Focus, belief structure and expectations are the keys to building on possibilities in your life.  Look for red cars on the road and suddenly you notice more red cars than you did prior to deciding to carry out this focus exercise.

 

Look at or focus on how life seems to have a negative influence, and you will begin to see how challenging and negative life has been.  Prior to focusing your energies on any direction, nothing stands out unless you decide to place your focus somewhere specific.

 

If you truly begin to believe in this concept and start using it to your benefit, life begins to shift.  You still have moments of discomfort, sadness, or anxiety, but as time passes, you will notice a shift in a different direction simply because of your focus.  The challenges that seemed so overwhelming, no longer seem as prevalent and are much more short lived.  You will notice more favorable events although in reality the number may still be the same. Your focus makes you pay attention to the positive outcomes when they take place in your life.  It is about awareness!

 

It takes time to make this shift, but it is never too late to begin. You will still experience challenging lessons, but they won’t seem as overwhelming.  Do not expect a dramatic, immediate change. Be patient and develop good, new habits and the change will follow along. You WILL learn patience because this does not happen overnight. It has taken you a lifetime to get to where you are now. 

 

One thing is for certain, you can’t allow your mind to hinder your progress. It will try!  It may feel as though the mind or thought process is being taken over and wants to regain control.  Remember, you are not your thoughts, you are the one listening to them.  This is not to say that your thoughts are not your own; of course they are! You, however, can decide which ones you wish to focus your attention on and which ones you allow to let go.  Do not own them!

 

Give yourself this year to make the change.  Do not give up or give in.  You owe it to yourself to find peace and contentment, to find positivity, wonder and appreciation. 

 

The world around you will continue down its path, although your focus will alter your inner world. The more work you do, the greater the influence and change.  What are the possibilities?

 

Love self and others. Let go of pain, live as though today is all you have (because it is only this moment that is guaranteed), enjoy what life offers and explore the challenges as well as the magnificence.  Learn the lessons. Truly live your life.

WORKING TOWARD A RESOLUTION

Working toward a resolution is working for peace & tranquility but it can be a rough road to travers. Have no regrets; do what you can. Do your best without regret.
It is important to work toward resolution for any issues resulting from conflict. 

 

It is unhealthy emotionally, mentally and physically to leave conflict unresolved. Work towards resolution with anything that stresses us. If you can’t do it for someone else, do it for you.

 

Stepping forward to sort out issues can be a very difficult step to take but it is the most beneficial one in the long run.

 

Perhaps you feel as though the resolution is out of your hands or the past suggests that your efforts will go unnoticed or fall short of what is required. Your hands may seem tied or fear of further conflict may weigh heavy on you.

 

Where do we go from there?

 

Ask yourself if you have really exhausted all efforts, or are you just tired of trying? 

 

Is there something that you are missing?

 

Would outside assistance make a difference?

 

Exhaust all possibilities before you give up on a resolution.

 

There is always a solution even if that answer may be to let go and let be!

 

Working toward a resolution is working toward peace and tranquility but the transition to get there may be a rough road to travers. Have no regrets and do what you can. Whatever the outcome, know you did your best without regret.

FIND RESOLUTION

Are you caught up in doom and gloom? 

 

Do you want to stay where your mind is living (your focus)?

 

Does your attitude create anxiety? Find resolution. Life lessons will happen but your response to them creates the experience.  Do not react; respond intentionally.
Many people have mentioned they feel lost and overwhelmed due to outside sources.  Many are overwhelmed by the current financial environment of uncertainty.

 

Everyone faces hurdles, some obvious, some not so obvious.  Life holds many experiences.

 

We have options available to us to relieve the challenges of everyday life.  All things in life are temporary. Absolutely nothing is permanent. Change is guaranteed.  We must learn to act when we can and accept when change is out of our hands.

 

The most important act we can take is to examine our focus or attitude towards any given event.  We have talked about this many times, but it is so important, we MUST repeat it!  If you are dealing with something causing anxiety and worry, you have to step back and look at it from a clear, unemotional perspective.  What can you change, especially, how can you change your attitude towards this life lesson?

 

It is not an easy task to shift our thoughts and expectations, but we are all capable of making the adjustments necessary to ease the tensions being felt.

 

Shift your focus to the great things in your life, whatever they may be (no matter how big or how small).  Release your focus on what is missing; focus on gratitude.  Don’t ignore the life lesson as the lesson is there to be learned.  If we ignore it, it will only heighten the circumstances as we cannot escape these lessons. We can’t hide our heads in the sand.  We must face the situation head on dealing with it in a constructive manner and not get caught up in believing that it will not go away or that we cannot fix the problem.

 

If we see the positive, we feel the positive.  If we focus on negativity, all we experience is negativity.  It takes work.  We are not suggesting that this will come easy, but refocusing is similar to a muscle.  Keep exercising it and watch is strengthen.  Be persistent.  Do not give up or give in.  Be determined! Dig in your heels! 

 

It has taken years to develop your attitude, it will take effort to change it.  You can do this!

 

Find resolution by looking within first.  Is your attitude your greatest source of anxiety? Life lessons will happen but your response to them creates the experience.  Do not react; respond intentionally.  Practice, practice, practice!

REVIEW LAST YEAR’S ACHIEVEMENTS

Our achievements or lack thereof are based on our personal definition of achievement. To one person, the very act of taking the first step towards a goal is achievement and to another person, achievement is crossing the finish line of their goals.

 

We must prioritize our goals.  You must first ask yourself how important each goal is to you.  How much effort are you willing to put into each goal?

 

It’s important to review last year’s achievements to set yourself up for a new year of success.  Believe in yourself and take that first step.
When we reflect on our achievements, bear in mind their priority to you. A half-hearted effort will achieve a less than perfect outcome.  If you gave it a half-hearted effort, it cannot have been that high on your priority list.

 

If you achieved what you set out to do, congratulations on your effort. It is important to give yourself recognition for your effort.  If you fell short of what you wanted to accomplish, examine why. If it is important, set a new plan for yourself to achieve this goal.  If it is not very important, maybe it’s time to let it go and move on. 

 

Internal dialogue is extremely important. Do not allow yourself to wallow in self-pity if you fall short.  Your approach to life should always be positive but also realistic.  If you fell short, ask yourself what you learned.  If you accomplished what you set out to do, reflect on your plans and efforts used and be proud as you would have had to work hard to make this happen.

 

In most cases, it’s best to work on yourself first (on your attitude and your own personal belief structures).  You can’t accomplish if you believe from the beginning that you will fail. 

 

Set some goals for yourself for this year.  Make them realistic.  Reach for something that you know is attainable, something that is worthwhile. Believe that you can do this.  Focus on one step at a time. Commit to following through no matter what obstacles you might face. 

 

It’s important to review last year’s achievements and how you got there to set yourself up for a new year of success.  Believe in yourself and take that first step.

SOCIAL CONDITIONING

We are taught throughout our life, but especially at an early age, how to behave.  We learn primarily from our parents or primary care givers and gain more insight as we begin to mature into ourselves, which takes a lifetime.  We learn how to adapt to life’s situations often taught through experience.  We learn how to manage or overcome adversity.  We learn about love and affection, hopefully beginning at an early age with our parents and once we have learned to love ourselves, we learn how to share our love with those around us.

 

Life is a learning tool that we all share. Listen & then contemplate your decisions (eliminating reaction) no matter what your social conditioning.
We become conditioned to react or respond depending on our upbringing and self-study.

 

We can be dictated to by our peers and others.  We may sometimes wonder if we are just puppets interacting the way we should without our consent.  Are we supposed to behave this way or that way, or is this just what we have become accustomed to doing? 

 

We may follow advice but, in many cases, the best advice comes from within, that little voice within which we all hear but not often listen to.

 

We are not suggesting that we fight the advice we are given, but as adults, we should now be in a state of knowing of what is right and wrong. We can make up our own minds without the chatter from others.  Authority figures are not always right, but they are worth listening to if they are teaching from experience.  Many have had years of experience and can guide us in the appropriate direction.  Ultimately, however, the final decision is ours personally.

 

Do we follow along blindly or make our own decisions. If we fall, we can always get back on our feet and learn from the experience.  These are the greatest life lessons.

 

In reality, we walk our own road, follow our own personal path, make our own decisions regardless of what other people have pushed on us. It is always up to us to make that final decision if we have the maturity to stop and question.

 

Life is the learning tool that we all share. We do not walk this road alone, although as mentioned we walk our own road.  We should listen and then contemplate our own decisions (eliminating reaction) no matter what our social conditioning.  Follow your hearts and the advice that echoes within. 

 

Enjoy the passage, learn from life and all its teachings, share your knowledge with those that want to listen and live the life that suits your journey.

LEADERSHIP

A good leader listens before making decisions to ensure the best outcome for all. Their decisions can have profound effects.  What is good leadership?
What makes for good leadership? 

 

Are personality, looks, education, experience, and/or respect important qualities for a leader?

 

The qualities of a leader are varying in importance by each person you ask. Two repeated qualities are “reliability”, and “honesty”. 

 

We need to count on our leaders, in whatever role they play, to provide us with truth and to stand by their commitments under all conditions. 

 

We do not necessarily have to like a leader’s personality although it certainly helps. 

 

In my opinion, any leader should have compassion, be understanding, have patience and listen to advice.  An open mind allows for growth.

 

Are Looks and styles important?  They shouldn’t be.

 

Does a leader need to be respected and admired?  Admiration is not required but respect is crucial.

 

Are there many leaders that fit this criteria? 

 

There are varying levels of leadership. It is hard to generalize an answer. There are those that rise to the top and receive respect which they have earned through their actions.  Those respected leaders have the good of those they lead in mind whatever the leading role may be

.

Are you a leader of a family team, work team, social group, provincial/state, or more? How are your leadership abilities?

 

A good leader listens before making decisions to ensure the best outcome for all involved. Their decisions can have profound effects.  What does good leadership mean to you?

SHIFTING WITH THE WIND

Change is guaranteed.  Growth is a requirement. Resistance creates harder lessons. Keep shifting with the wind of change as required.
The winds of change affect us all.  There are times when we can manipulate the way life is wanting to move us and then there are times when we just have to go with the flow.  One thing is for certain, when the winds of change come, it is time for a shift. 

 

Change can come suddenly or provide us with warnings.  Often, if we are provided with intuitive warning, we can prepare for these changes.  Our current way of life and the familiar routine may no longer suit our soul’s requirements. We may fight the process but over time we recognize that the changes are in fact required.

 

These changes can be internal, external, involve others, or be very personal.  Change can have several different faces, but when it’s time, it’s time! 

 

Do not hold on to the old, outdated ways.  You cannot move forward to the next rung of life if you refuse to let go of the current one you are holding. If you know what must be done, go ahead and do it.  With or without your consent, life will move you in the direction required.  “Allowing” makes that transition much easier and likely much faster.

 

If life is hard right now, know that this too will change. Learn the lesson being taught and allow.

 

Change is guaranteed.  Growth is a requirement. Resistance creates harder lessons. Keep shifting with the wind of change as required.
