If you are anything like me, then you have had a horrid past…
One filled with lack and horrible circumstances that caused a hunger, a desperation for things to change…
You made many vows, when growing up, that your life would be different…
You made inner vows that your children’s lives would be different…
You also internally promised to be the one to save the day for your family, friends etc…
And you got angry with them for not believing that you were strong enough to bring about change…
You wanted and longed for so much and now, as you get older, you feel increasingly desperate for those dreams, those desires that you have building up for years, to come true…
And now the desperation has become tinged with despair…
“Will it ever happen?”
“Will I ever get there?”
Desire and desperation all mixed up inside…
And despair…
A silent, on going feeling that it will never happen for you…
And to stop dreaming…
And settle down into life as it is and give up all hope of things ever changing…
But you are a fighter and so, you keep pushing and pushing AND PUSHING!
And praying and affirming…
But internally, getting more and more desperate and despairing…
Man, so much emotion…
And unfortunately for you, the negative emotion is stronger than the positive…
And so it feels like nothing good is ever coming your way…
I lived like this for a long while…
Finally, Papa got through to me…
I had to let the desperation go…
It was leading to despair and that was leading to me acting as though things were never going to work out…
And so my actions caused rubbish results simply because I was acting on the most pressing and yet, most insidious emotions – DESPAIR and SELF-DOUBT
When those two rule the day, you do things like refuse to advertise your business because deep down, you don’t believe it will work…
You are not consistent in your action taking because you, deep down, don’t believe it will work…
You are not consistently telling anyone how you can help them because you, deep down, don’t believe that you are good enough…
You refuse to invest in learning how to do what needs to be done because you, deep down, don’t trust that ANYTHING can work for you…
You think you have exhausted every avenue though you have not but your despair, desperation and doubt convince you that you have and if you unfortunately have isolated yourself from support, you will not even realise all the things you have yet to try.
And it feels like you are giving it your all and so you are not happy in this moment, AT ALL!
You are ever longing for a moment in the future some time when you can finally be very happy…
You do not see your current blessings…
And you definitely cannot trust that your higher power is your supply, though you may sing about it with all kinds of gusto
STOP!
Just Stop!
I did this – It got me nowhere…
- TRUST
Find a way to trust your Higher Power to be your supply. For Real. Not some fake pretend quoting the words but not living the life. For me, it was something as simple as tithing when I did not have any money to spare. It was a HUGE SIGN for me at that time that I now choose to live in trust that every single good thing that I dream of, is absolutely definitely coming to me and I don’t need to hold on to every dime because money flows to me easily
AND I was taken care of.
All I needed to do was show up and be awesome!
2) GRATITUDE
I had to develop a DELIBERATE gratitude practise – Find things to be grateful for all the time so that I can see that I can be happy now in this moment because actually, things were better than they were when I was younger. There is always something to be thankful for.
3) LET GO
Over and over and over again, I chose to let go of my need and desperation, to step into faith and trust and hope. And also to do the work that I am called to do consistently, for the sake of the work and the help I provide to others, rather than just for the reward.
As a result of my past, I had made a decision to experience lots of money and abundance. Nothing wrong with that in itself but when mixed with desperation, it made me unhappy and unable to see the good that was already in my life because it was never enough.
I had to continually and still continually go back to gratitude to open my eyes to my current good and to realise that even if life stayed as it is now, I will be okay and I will still get to do the work that I have always dreamt of and I had that confidence because I had deliberately designed a life where that was my story.
4) PERSISTENCE / RELENTLESS PURSUIT
Just because I let go of the desperation around my money and purpose goals, did not mean that I was not doing all I could to create them. However, I started to come from a place of peace, rather than fear and worry that I would never get there. I cultivated a quiet certainty that though I did not know when exactly the result would arise, it definitely would as long as I kept working towards it while being happy in each moment.
Hard to do but possible…
I still learn it.
5) DETERMINED DECISION
I also decided that my goals would be created in a very purpose-driven way. I decided that I would design life the way I wanted it, not by the standards of the world. But I would keep the vision inside of me clear and keep creating it.
Yes, I would be multi-passionate and figure out how to bring it all in as I served the people I felt called to. I DECIDED that I would FIGURE IT OUT because my vision really was my permission. I trusted that I could find a way and so I did.
6) THE WORK
I created, communicated, captured, closed EVERY FREAKING DAY even when I was at my lowest points and I felt sure that all was lost. I refused to allow desperation and despair to rule my life. I chose to expand over and over again, doing things that sometimes scared the living daylights out of me like advertising when I was tempted to reduce or completely nix my marketing budget.
I did the work because the truth is, I wanted to do the work. I wanted to help people with my singing, writing, speaking, coaching and I would do it with or without reward. That is what I wanted my life to be about and so, I got excited about the work!
7) CHILDLIKE FAITH
Simply trust.
There is so much to say about this but for now, release that heavy feeling over and over again by focusing on the good in your life. Do the work because you want to serve people. Hold your intention, your goals lightly. DECIDE they will happen but be in peace about it.
Fight for, deliberately design the life you are born to live
Because you want to.
Please remember.
- Your vision is your permission.
- You are capable of your calling.
- You are much more powerful than you realise.
- Yes you can get everything you want.
- You are loved. You are enough. You are worthy. You deserve the very best of everything.
