“Perhaps you have been wandering all your past life, living in the shepherd’s folds in the churches, perhaps never dreaming that you were not a sheep, that you did not belong to that particular shepherd’s fold. Yet you may have had an instinctive feeling that there was something in you which did not respond to the sheep call, that there was a something within you which did not fit your environment, which did not belong to the conditions in which you found yourself. You may have been conscious that there was something in you which never responded to the call which appealed to those about you.

You may have heard the voice that answered your yearning while reading an inspiring book, or while listening to a new philosophy conversation which seemed to open up a new compartment in your nature.

No matter where you hear this call, when yo do hear it something within you will answer the call and you will know that you have been touched to a higher, a finer purpose.

The new philosophy, however, especially appeals to the undiscovered part of us, to those hidden, latent forces within us, which we have not hitherto been able to get hold of. In other words, it appeals to our hitherto unused assets, our plus or surplus life capital. You will find something in people who have embraced it, in people who understand it, which you do not find in others.”

Why Your Goal Doesn’t Matter

30 Days to Living Your Best Life, Success Habits No Comments »

just make a decision

Have a goal. Set an intention. Know the outcome. Desire to be something.

All the same thing.

The goal is not important, but the goal is absolutely necessary. How is this so?

According to Abraham-Hicks, “The reason for desires, goals…for finding those decisions or points of focus, is because they are the life-giving things of the Universe. Without objects of attention, or objects of desire, Life Force does not come through any of us.”

This is why following your bliss is the best course of action for you. The goal matters only insofar that it inspires a movement of energy within you and through you. You are the instrument through which the greater You (God, source, energy, consciousness, whatever you want to call it) expresses itself. The stronger your connection to yourself (by enjoying what you do), — to your source, — the greater your opportunities to do what you will. Picture yourself as a magnet, so the more excited you are about something, the greater will be your attractive force which draws all the people and circumstances you need to you to accomplish that.

The Take-home Message

What moves you? Do that.
