Making It Clear

12 Oct

Life is complex and since we can’t read the future, we never know what’s coming next. When we’re making our decisions, we may base them on the current circumstances, or where we believe they’ll take us, or a thousand other reasons. If we are unsure about the future, or afraid of something happening that upsets our lives we may choose what looks like the safest option. Everyone wants to be safe, but there will always be more than one possibility, and if we only look at the easiest or most comfortable road, we may not make the best decisions. There is risk in everything, and even if we do all we can to prevent problems, they will still arise. Making decisions based only on protecting ourselves may not take us where we most want to go. Before we decide, we can take a moment to think about our reasons for the choice we’re making. By clarifying why we’re going one way or another, we will understand what our real goal is. Do we really want to head toward that destination, or are we only going that way because we know the road and it’s easy to travel? By being honest with ourselves, we’ll be able to decide what we really want and then proceed with confidence. We can go through our lives just doing the next thing without thinking, and following along whatever paved road is in front of us, and we will end up somewhere.  But if we want the lives we desire most, we must decide on each goal, and then move forward to reach it. Everything is possible and we are certainly capable of achieving anything we desire. We are brave enough and wise enough to reach any destination, and with clarity and determination, nothing can keep us from success. 

Change is constant and nothing is permanent. The road ahead may be clear when we begin a journey, but we can’t see beyond the next turn. We may face detours and roadblocks that snag our progress and prevent us from moving forward. Complications will undoubtedly come, and issues will arise. People may get in our way and the sky may darken. No matter what goes wrong, there will always be a way out and another road to take. With patience and clarity, we can untangle any problem, and continue forward.

If we’re headed toward a destination and our situation changes, we may decide we want something different. We don’t have to continue on the same road if our desires have changed. We can take everything we’ve learned so far with us and go in another direction. Every experience has value and nothing is wasted. We know who we are and what we want, and by keeping our eyes focused ahead, we can go where we want, and achieve any goal.

Today think about what you really want. You never have to stay in the same place and every option is possible. Decide where you want to go and how you want to proceed, and then take the first step. You are amazing and more powerful than you realize. Nothing is too difficult for you to manage, and every dream is possible. Trust yourself and be confident. The whole world is there for you and you will succeed.

Beyond the Limit

11 Jul

“The sky is falling! The sky is falling!”  Chicken Little

We may face times when we’re in situations that are so difficult we feel pushed up against our ability to cope.  We may struggle to understand what’s going on and what is required for us to solve the problem may be more than we think we can manage or tolerate.  Serious, complicated and intensely painful issues are not easy to navigate.  Everyone has an idea of what their limits are for things that go wrong.  Terrible and unexpected things may happen and we may believe we can never survive.  We may suffer greatly but no matter what comes, no matter how horrible and devastating it may be, we will always have everything we need to overcome it.  Our personal limits can be stretched and moved out of the way and we can find resolution to anything we must face.  We have deeper reserves of strength and resilience than we may recognize and we discover them when everything goes wrong and we are left with nothing but our own resources to find the way through.  Turmoil and trouble may be unpleasant but they open the gates to greater understanding and personal growth.  While we’re walking through the fire we learn about ourselves and understand more about life.  At the end of the trial we will be stronger and wiser and will carry everything we’ve learned forward with us.  Trouble comes to us all.  Recognizing and accepting that we’ll always find our way will give us greater confidence and calm as we travel through our lives.

Life is filled with change but there are some things we can always count on.  The sky will never fall, the sun will come up, and whatever we’re going through today will change.  The changes that come aren’t always what we want and there will be times we won’t be able to alter a situation we don’t like.  We may have to change direction when we don’t want to, or accept a decision we find disagreeable.  When the road we’re on turns we can be flexible enough to bend and find a new way forward.  Even during times of disappointment and duress, happiness is possible.  We are always in control of our lives and can change anything to find our way.

We always have control over how we manage our lives and what we do.  When things go wrong and we’re lost we don’t have to sit down and give up.  There will always be options available that allow us to continue moving ahead.  Being open to new ideas and different possibilities will help us create a new plan and reach our objectives.  We are strong and powerful and nothing is too difficult to manage or too complex to solve.  We can be confident in times of trouble and courageous moving forward.  Our destinations will always be there waiting and we will find our way to them.

Today if you’re facing an extremely difficult problem and feel pushed against the wall unable to think, trust your instincts and be strong.  You have reserves ready within you to get you through.  There isn’t anything you can’t conquer.  Be courageous and have confidence.  All the answers are there and you will find them.  Take another step.
