The Perfect Gift

The only gift is a portion of thyself.Ralph Waldo Emerson

lost in fog

We’re lost in a material fog. One which focuses mostly on our needs. Also one which keeps us inside our heads.

gift yourself

Let’s get out of our heads, drop into our hearts and live through that unfathomable gateway! Now let us put our attention on others. What do they truly need? A true need can only be met by another person, not a thing. Let us be that person to others, let us give of our own selves.

Are you having a daily kind of a day? In other words are a lot of your days similar to one another? Why is that?

Direction creates

The world has the habit of making room for the man whose words and actions show that he knows where he is going.Napoleon Hill

know it or just act

Knowing who you are and where you’re going is a very powerful statement to the Universe. A strong will, a steady mind and a firm decision creates waves and parts the way. Serendipity springs into action and you start to sail into propitious situations. Even acting the part works, try it!

no wrong decision

Know that in the eternal scheme of things there’s no worldly decision you can make that is wrong. If it’s ‘wrong’ according to you and others; then you’ll learn from that action. If it’s ‘right’ then you’ll reap its benefits. So don’t hesitate, decide and act…

Daily Affirmation: Today I am decisive. I will move to create momentum!

The Holodeck Perspective…

What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?Robert Schuller

what?

  • Quit your job? And start living the life of your dreams?
  • Confess love to those you’ve always loved?
  • Never have fear about anything again?
  • Be happy?
  • Travel?

you never do fail

From one standpoint you never do fail, even when you think you do. I call this the Holodeck Perspective. In Star Trek the Holodeck was a large room where the computer created a virtual reality based on your request. The simulation was so real that you could actually forget that you were living that simulation. Life is like that. In an ultimate way, we’re always safe, we feel the pain and the gain right now, but nothing we do on this planet can eternally harm us…

Once we remind ourselves that this is a Holodeck experience (even though our relationships and experiences are real); we need not be afraid of failure; we need not be afraid of anything or anyone!

Daily Affirmation: I am eternally safe today to pursue my dreams. I will handle all that life throws at me.
