Everything is Possible

As I sit down to write this, my heart is exploding open with love and gratitude for the universe. Right now, more than ever before, I'm understanding how believing in yourself, and giving thanks to a higher power creates so. much. opportunity. Faith really does goes a long way. I also have gratitude for surrendering and letting go of expectations. "Faith" and "surrender" might seem like opposites, but they go hand in hand.

Everyday I am downloading clearer visions and stepping into the knowing that my goals and dreams are happening right before my eyes. I am finally accepting that what is for me, is for me, and divine timing is on my side. Accepting our greatness is what brings it to fruition. I won't lie...it's so beautiful, and it's also really fucking scary. What do we do when our dreams start to come true? I mean, most of us go a looooooong time just hoping that someday they will, but not really taking any action steps towards making them a reality. Well, I'm learning that's really all it takes: Simple action steps, and the belief that it can be reality.

Something I'm personally noticing, is that fear begins popping up more as things "fall into place" and sometimes relief, or even joy, pop up when things seem to "fall through." This seems weird right? Like, a little backwards? My theory is that this is because we're not "used" to things "going our way." Especially not so easily. We become comfortable with the way things have been. So, for example, if you've been let down a lot in life, you might feel a little happy when something or someone else does that to you. You may say, "I just want something to go exactly my way for once!" But if it did, would you actually be happy about it? Or would you want to find someway to complain about it?

We all live in society that has trained us to believe that we have to work really hard if we want to be successful, or achieve our goals. That's it's normal and even admirable to be overworked. We're made to believe that the amount of work involved, if we want big wins, will be so massive that we probably won't even be able to do it. Or maybe we just won't want to. That we're not "good enough," or we're "too lazy," just me? But the truth is, that's all mindset. Those are limiting beliefs. Another fear I have (and the collective does too, so maybe you as well) is: "if I get everything I want, it will really suck once it goes away." What? Read that again. So, we're afraid of having our heart broken, therefore many of us choose to never truly love. We're SO afraid of failing, that we never even try. That shit is heartbreaking...That we choose to block our own greatness, for the fear that we might lose it one day. Like, HELLO?! That's so dumb. I'm sorry, but that's downright stupid. I think fear also pops up because we recognize that there are always more action steps to take, and sometimes big goals = big risk. As thankful as I am to our human evolution and brains for wanting to save us from risky things, everyone knows the truth: no risk, no reward. We cannot keep living the way we always have, and expect our lives/world to change. We can't assume that if we just "wait long enough" it will be "our turn." We have to make our turn. Take personal responsibility and action to change our lives. Then have faith and gratitude to the universe (or whatever higher-power resonates with you) for showing up and being on our team. We are so held and completely supported by Source.

With that said, I am just taking the moment to bask in being so thankful to my higher-self and the spiritual guides of the universe. I feel taken care of. Like nothing can stop me. I'm thankful for the many teachers, books, and tools for growth and healing that I've learned that have brought me to this point. There is always more to do, and more layers to un-cover, but right now I am celebrating what I've done thus far. Celebrating our wins is a form of gratitude, and a pretty powerful one. If you're super thankful for every blessing, the universe wants to grant you more. She would much rather give generously to gracious recipients, than recipients who beat themselves up and say, "Well I still want more," or "I can still do better." Applaud yourself! Brag on yourself. Be proud. There is nothing wrong or conceited about it. If it triggers you when other people speak about their success, ask yourself, "why?" Is it because you're actually judging yourself for not being "farther?" Or maybe you're afraid others will feel bad if you're "farther" than them? That's all just ego. Because you are exactly where you are meant to be right now. You can go up, down, or sideways - the choice is yours. One persons "success" does not take away the ability for someone else to achieve as well. If anything, the more you celebrate other people's wins, the more clear it is that we can all do this! Celebrating your own wins will empower others to do the same. There is no "greater" or "less than." Every single person on this planet has unique gifts and talents, something that no one else can do quite like them. If you don't already celebrate yourself and your wins: PLEASE, I'm inviting you right now, to START. Tell yourself "good job," and "I'm proud of you." Accept that all your dreams can come true. You might feel delusional at first, but everything is possible.
