Do You Believe What You Think?

If you work toward what you dream, the dream can come true. You can achieve success. You can tell others one day about your success story.

It’s a better place to live than in the isolated place where you feel the pain of depression and the frustration of not getting what you want and need.

If you really want something, who knows how it can happen for you. But you have to take some form of action, even if it is only to write down what you desire or hold an earnest conversation with yourself about what you want in your life.

Any plan is better than no plan. Inaccurate plans will later lead to more accurate plans.

Any action is better than no action. Hesitant action will later lead to bold, decisive, effective action.

Nothing happens until something moves. And you have to be the one who makes it move. As you move forward, you can refine your attempts.

In the place of emotional poverty, people think of themselves as failures. They think that the things that they want are not possible for them. The fable of abundance is for other people, but not for them.

Yet is it true?

Do you find yourself believing the story you tell yourself?

In your story, other people are to blame, and the world is uncooperative, and you are too helpless to do anything about it.

In your story, you tried and failed, or someone let you down, or something bizarre happened just before your big break.

Is your story true? Is your interpretation of the flow of events absolutely accurate? How does it make you think and feel when you tell yourself how things could have been or should have been?

How empowered do you feel when everyone involved in your drama, including yourself, must bear the blame for your current suffering?

If you believe what you think, then suffering is inevitable. Do you honestly believe that you are a miserable failure? Is your life really a tale of failure to thrive?

When we question what we believe, we can find a great freedom to experience life in a more wholesome way. Abundance in life is possible.

How To Create A Dream

All of us have a vision of our own possibility. Yet few achieve the success that our heart’s desire.

For us to move closer to our dream of health and wealth and achievement, we first need to move beyond the angst of our memories of past failures. We must move beyond our hesitation and our fears. And we must put behind us the memory of what it was like to walk along the boulevard of broken dreams.

We also must realize that greatness is not easy.

In an inspired moment, we may make enormous progress, but, sooner or later, we come up against the boundary of our world-view, our choice of circumstances, and we do not know how to move beyond it.

The world we live in now is one that we created from what we knew before.

A dream, however, calls for us to expand, to move beyond experience, and even to move beyond our knowledge of how things work.

It is beyond the invisible boundary of the world that we have made that our dream awaits us, beckoning us to step into the unknown.

Dreams test us. They goad and prompt us, but they also test us. How much are we willing to give up for them? How long are we willing to act in the face of discouraging circumstances?

When something new is being created in our reality, we often feel lost and afraid. It takes enormous courage to journey into uncharted terrain.

In addition, there is a lag time between our inner change and the manifestation of the dream, and during that lag time we must live in the midst of old effects. It takes an intense desire and hidden fire to believe in the evidence of things not seen. Too often the evidence of our current environment completely intimidates us…and we surrender to the belief that our current limitations are real and inevitable.

Yet the world that seems so solid is actually elastic.

When our consciousness of what is possible for us changes, then the world, too, shifts away from its familiar moorings and offers us a chance to be more of whom we believe ourselves to be.

If we can hold fast to our goals and take action relentlessly, we will discover a key to success that yields abundance in every area of our lives.

Consider what it will cost us, in the long run, if we turn away from our own promise.

What Will It Cost You?

What will it cost you if you don’t do it?

Everyone has a secret dream that they nourish in their hearts.

Yet many of these dreams never emerge beyond mere wishful thinking.

I’d like to challenge you to consider what will happen if you don’t unwrap your dream and let it fly free in the world.

Perhaps you’re afraid, or comfortably numb, or confused about how to make your dream come true.

So, naturally, you just keep putting it off, letting it become unreal, and letting it slip into the mists of oblivion.

But what will it cost you if you don’t fulfill your dream or make an effort at it?

What will it cost you if you don’t quit that job that you hate, break away from that suffocating relationship, or continue to let your waistline expand and your self-esteem to plummet? What will it cost you if you don’t resolve whatever is heartbreakingly wrong with your world? What will it cost you emotionally, mentally, psychologically, and even physically?

Are you paddling your canoe toward Niagara, waiting for some passing angel to pull you over to the shore before you plunge over the edge?

Often it seems safe not to act.

Yet this is possibly the most dangerous thing that you can do.

Apathy and inertia, routine and conformity, indifference and resistance—these are the weeds slowly devouring the secret treasures buried in the garden of your heart.

How much longer will you tolerate the unlived life, the unmanifested destiny, the discarded hope, the abandoned vision?

Time is passing; your life force is ebbing away. How many more seasons must come and go, before you realize that your life is much more than you’ve been daring to express?

Seize the dream, my friend, before time and tide steal away your life.

What will it cost you, if you don’t decide, don’t act, and don’t manifest your particular vision in the world? How much more pain can you stand before you seize the day? Imagine, alternatively, what it would be like to achieve success!
