And…Action!

Continuing on from last week’s post on procrastination, this week is all about finding the best course of action toward your goal. To move toward your desired outcome, it’s definitely important to take consistent action, but have you ever been so singularly focused (eh hem, obsessed) that you end up feeling frustrated when it doesn’t happen despite all of your efforts? Or it takes much longer than you’d like? I know I have.  

Instead of letting go of a goal if it doesn’t happen right away, you may just need to allow a little space and time for it to come in. Think about it, when you clench tightly onto something, it constricts it, and doesn’t allow any wiggle room or freedom of movement. Why should the creation of goals be any different? There needs to be space to allow.

So whatever you are trying to create, take those tangible steps to get you there, but also leave some room for the Universe to respond.

With Love.

Taking action sets forth an energetic shift signaling that one is prepared for change to occur. Now is the time to take action. Understand that oftentimes energetic shifts occur while results may still remain unseen. Do not allow yourself to become overly attached to the end result you are associating with the action, as limiting beliefs can impede full potential of an outcome. By remaining unattached, one allows potential for a greater outcome to unfold than that which has been previously perceived.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: How can we stay motivated to continue working on a goal when the results aren’t unfolding the way we want, or are taking longer than we had anticipated?

A. It is important to avoid seeing the goal as a one-sighted endeavor. A balance of a variety of goals – some profound, some mundane – allows time and space for results to unfold. When all energy and effort is concentrated on a single endeavor at the cost of other endeavors, it is an attempt to control the flow of creation and can lead to frustration when the results are not quickly recognized. Yes, one must take action to create that which one desires, yet it is in the balance of action with allowing that creates space for results to occur.

Q: Ok, I have another question. Don’t we risk the potential of creating lack of focus or a scattered mind if we go after multiple goals at the same time?

A: It is not in pursuing so many goals simultaneously that one cannot maintain focus and move toward completion. It is in allowing a number of goals that meet with the individual’s ability to maintain proper focus and completion. Not all individuals have the same capacity to multi-task and each individual must decide what is appropriate for them. It is not for another to decide or another to judge at what level of achievement one can acquire. And it is not to have so many goals that one cannot complete a task. When each individual allows themselves to work within the frame of their own achievement level, and allows others to do the same, then each individual opens the path to mastering their goals.

Clean Your Plate

Ahhh procrastination, that foggy state of mind where you feel you have limitless tomorrows to get things done, and then suddenly…d’oh! You find yourself overwhelmed or staring down a deadline in a panic. This week is all about moving through the state of procrastination and on to clearing things off your plate that may have been hanging around in the ethers a little too long. I like that this week’s message also speaks of letting go of those things that maybe we shouldn’t have committed to in the first place.

So my challenge to you this week is to examine where you might be lagging on taking action, especially if it’s something that you really want to do. If you have multiple lingering items, then prioritize and focus on the top of the list. That way you won’t overwhelm yourself and well, you know, procrastinate.

Hey ho, let’s go!

With Love.

Focus on completion or release of projects and tasks that have been lingering in procrastination. Doing so prior to setting new intentions will bring a sense of accomplishment and create better focus and attention with future endeavors. 

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: How can we better recognize those things that need to be released instead of completed?

A. It is to release the doing of that which no longer serves your best interests or wellbeing, or that of one who may be dependent on you. If you are finding it difficult to move a project or task toward completion – simply out of avoidance – you may ask yourself what is holding you in a state of procrastination. Many times this occurs out of fear, or complacency, or rebelliousness, or a general lack of belief in one’s abilities. It is important to recognize this so you may push through toward completion. If a task or project is being imposed upon you by another’s belief structure that is not aligned with yours, then it is not in your best interests to continue to move forward with it. You may wish to examine why you allow this individual to hold power over your actions. It is important to remember that each moment of life is a series of choices. Choices made out of a desire for greater happiness and wellbeing for yourself and society as a whole will lead to a more fulfilling life.

Express Yourself

Yes, this blog post is a day late. I have very good reason in that I spent the weekend in preparation of, and then in celebration of my mother’s 80th birthday. This week’s post is short and sweet and speaks of how to release the fear of judgment that can get in the way of fully expressing ourselves.

So go ahead, express yourself! 

With Love.

From Over There: 9.14.14 Weekly Focus

Allow yourself greater freedom of expression. Let yourself be free of fear of judgment. Release preconceived judgment by others to open to greater creative flow and a sense of liberation.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: How can we release the fear of judgment by others to open ourselves to greater freedom of expression?

A. Simply by doing. When one begins to express themselves in ways that move them out of feelings of complacency and comfort, the mind compensates for the acts by broadening the perception of personal ability. The opposite also occurs when one continues to close themselves down through fear. There is a perception of diminished ability. Only by embracing the broadening of abilities through action does one begin to lessen the fear of judgment. This leads to greater self-confidence and awareness in one’s true ability.

Take a Leap

What does taking a leap of faith mean to you? To me it means taking a chance when your gut says “yes” even if you don’t have a clear picture of how things might turn out. It can be a mighty scary thing to do, especially for an overly stubborn, quintuple Capricorn (yes, speaking about myself). While taking a leap without knowing where the net is – or if there even is a net – can definitely take us out of our comfort zone, it can also be very liberating and important for releasing stagnant energy. 

Do you have anything in your life that isn’t working? Or isn’t living up to how you’d like to experience the world? Maybe it’s time to take a chance and make a change, even if the outcome is still a mystery.

1…2…3…JUMP!

With Love.

From Over There: 9.7.14 Weekly Focus

Step outside of convention. Step into the mystery. Push through the constraints of discomfort to expand the potential for growth and greater abundance. Doing so will increase the probability of a happy and more fulfilling life.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

This week’s question:

Q: Can you please speak more on stepping into the mystery? Many of our fears arise from pursuing something when we don’t have a clear picture of the outcome. How do we push through the fear?

A. By understanding that there is no guarantee of a particular outcome. Everything is fluid and ever-changing. Oftentimes, many view the world through the illusion of stability. In reality, nothing is stable, as everything changes with each moment. Understand this and you can embrace the natural process of change. Doing so allows for greater expansiveness in life choices and lessens the fear. It is to have faith in your abilities and trust in your decisions. Oftentimes, a choice is made and fear arises that does not allow for full actualization of a process. It is to move through the fear throughout each step of the process that allows for a more satisfying outcome.

Q: I have another question. Can you speak more about the fear that gets in the way of completing a process?

                                                                                                                            

A: The fear arises out of a lack of belief in one’s abilities, especially when learning new processes. When one lacks trust in their abilities, they may stop taking a desired course of action out of a fear of failure, thus, not completing the actualization of the process. It is in moving through this fear while one is still acclimating to the new process that will keep one on course, leading to greater satisfaction in the outcome of the process.
