You are the masterpiece!

Leave a comment

When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece. – John Ruskin

You know what they say, do what you love and the money follows? Well so does a masterpiece! But did you ever think of your self as a masterpiece?

How would you build your life, your skills, your habits, demeanor and legacy?

With love and skill of course!

Love yourself and be patient. Understand what keeps you going, what you like and dislike, habits you want to improve and relationships you want to mend. Skill must be present too. You must know yourself, how to change habits, how to become calmer, more loving etc.

To create a masterpiece that everyone loves, you must view yourself as one and work at it!

When will you be free?

Leave a comment

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action–
Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake. – Rabindranath Tagore

The United States celebrate July 4th as Independence Day!

Personal freedom reigns when you are: Fearless, unaffected by what others think, feel loved, love others, joyous, peaceful, purpose-driven, service-driven, of excellent mind, body and spirit!

The planet deeply desires such individuals to come forth and fertilize the global consciousness that will someday lead to peace and happiness for one and all!

When do you or will you celebrate your Independence Day? When will you answer the call?

Your destiny!

Leave a comment

Destiny is not a matter of chance;

it is a matter of choice.

It is not a thing to be waited for;

it is a thing to be achieved. – William Jennings Bryan

It’s your life and it’s your destiny that you control; by your thoughts, determinations, agreements, affirmations, assumptions, desires, habits and goals!

Let’s talk about agreements today, what are they? They are larger assumptions that you live by. An example might be: ‘My parents divorced when I was a kid, no one really loves me, not even God’. Another one could be: ‘I’ve failed in many of my major endeavors in life, I can’t make a success out of anything’.

Such basic but major assumptions define, to a very large extent, what you will experience in life. We do learn a lot from adversity so are we trying to create a perfect life? God does want us to be happy but s/he also wants us to grow as humans into reliable and mature beings. So in my opinion the focus on the ‘Law of Attraction’ to create an ideal life is a little misplaced. A truly fulfilling life can only be obtained when our life is in lock-step with the Universal Mind, God’s Will. Living with God as our partner is to actually fulfill our destiny.

Ponder that.

Follow your bliss!

Leave a comment

If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in your field of bliss, and they open doors to you. – Joseph Campbell

When you follow your bliss, you are in a joyous state yourself. In that state it’s easy to connect with the life-blood of the Universe and your Life Purpose! When you’re in the zone (or flow) life starts to happen in a synchronistic fashion.

That’s when you know that you’re on to something! Latch on to it and pursue your bliss to a fun, fulfilling and very meaningful life!

Born to succeed!

Leave a comment

Men are born to succeed, not to fail. – Henry David Thoreau

You are already a success, just look around you, inside you, and at the life you’ve already created. Let your successful life guide your future and illuminate your present.

Your present is where you understand and accept the value of all that you’ve already become, it’s a culmination of sorts. It’s a future you had probably desired a long time ago. Recognize it, accept it and now celebrate it!

Celebrate the success that you already are!

Time to soar!

Leave a comment

One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar. – Helen Keller

How often do we detect a desire to go do something big or worthwhile, and how quickly do we shoot it down to return to our ‘comfort zone’? Or how quickly do we let others shoot down such ideas?

Catch yourself when you do that. Notice what comes up when you consciously or not, push your real self’s desires down. What kind of fear is it that stops us from even dreaming our dreams, let alone living them?

As we become more aware of such debilitating thought-habits, we can slowly escape from its clutches. We slowly become whole.

We are made to succeed, we’re made to be joyous and happy, don’t trample your birthright by succumbing to a lesser self!

Banish doubts…

Leave a comment

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt. – Shakespeare

Once we get used to watching where our thoughts spring from next steps can be:

  • Becoming aware of how we get enmeshed in each thought process. When we’re involved in them we’re not being conscious of that activity. When we become aware then that act in itself, helps us distance ourselves from the thought. We notice that we are having these thoughts, we are not the thoughts. This distinction is crucial for our peace of mind.
  • Next notice the quality of these thoughts. Are they the spirit enhancing kind or the opposite? Ferret out thoughts of fear and of doubts. Consciously bring up pleasing thoughts instead or just watch them disappear if you don’t get involved in them and just become aware of them instead.

Both activities above are enhanced by meditation, just 5 minutes twice a day helps! Check out some exercises here. Won’t you do that for yourself?

Banish your doubts, be less fearful and forge ahead!!
