Igniting Your Desire

Making the decision to dream big can be a scary endeavor for many people, and yet it’s the exercise that leads us to living a life we absolutely love.

What if we gave ourselves permission to dream beyond our current reality? Where could these thoughts take us?

Taking these three steps can help you begin building your dream life.

You know that feeling...that something's off...just not right...things haven't gelled yet...and we tend to think that it's something that we have to FIx.

But what if that's not true? What if you're not broken, and nothing's really 'wrong' per se.

Try this idea on:

Discontent is an important signal from your deeper nature that something bigger is seeking to emerge through you. Give yourself permission to enter and explore the realm of your deep desires.

Spend some time asking yourself (extra credit: journal this!) what this sense of frustration, this sense of 'something's off' is trying to communicate to you. Are you not living your life in a way that your dream might be able to actually get to you? If you're not doing your pushups, you're not going to build those pushup muscles, right?

Now, the trick is to avoid falling into self-criticism, into beating yourself up because the dream hasn't happened yet. The TRICK is to harness this energy- this sense discomfort- by turning your focus towards the dream.

Let the dream begin to live in your mind and heart as a true possibility.

Notice your body and your emotions.

Does the feeling of desire heighten and your sense of aliveness? An expanded feeling of aliveness is an important indicator that you are on the right path.

I know this might sound a little trite...but there's truth to it:

If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get the results you’ve always gotten.

Pause for a moment. You’ll hear the old chatter that dictates every reason for not taking a risk.

Listen, then pause. All these negative experiences and disappointments may have been true in the past. But they don't have to continue to limit you!

Now is the time to toss them off.

Your history does not determine your destiny.

All your disappointments and regrets belong to a time that is ending at this moment.

In the next moment, let out your yearnings in a first roar of awakening. This is a roar of triumph.

Co-creation means you partner with the Energy that has created ALL life to build the greatest life you can live. You're not doing this alone!

When you recognize yourself as a co-creator, you ask for guidance and break through the self-imposed barriers that have stood between yourself and your desires.

Begin each new day thanking the Universe (or your higher self, higher power...nature...the sky...whatever is bigger than you but includes you!) and concentrating on a desire of yours that you previously believed was out of reach. Just for that day, act as if what you wanted was possible.

Then see what transforms.

Here’s to your BEST LIFE! You deserve it!!
