Destiny Awaits
Destiny Awaits
Three Things to Know Before You Go
On the path to our own future, we have the options and chances to change direction, make a turn, change our course or modify the destination. Or we can just stop in our tracks and wait to see what happens next. I suggest we use our free will and nix the waiting game option. Waiting is only fun when we are anticipating something good is about to happen. Like the fox in the Little Prince who totally loved the idea of waiting for his friend and found great joy in the anticipation of seeing him versus not knowing. Ultimately, we can’t know everything and change, of course, is a primary constant of life, but with some foresight, conviction, and a dash of faith we can start to see that proverbial light at the end of the tunnel. Here are a couple of ideas that might help the journey along:
– Look forward. Destiny does not occur in the past tense and neither will the rest of our lives. Dwelling in the past diminishes our view of the future. The past might provide some hints or tools, but it’s still up to us to set the course from here.
– Dream the big dream. Setting off to our future is often the path to what we’ve already witnessed. When we craft our course based on what we believe we can actually accomplish it usually includes a lot of what’s already happened (see above). I’m not planning adverse but why limit ourselves before we even get started.
– Last and certainly not the least: Move toward the dream. Once we lock in we need to move. Take action as if your dream is imminent. If we immerse ourselves in the belief that our dream is actually happening, we create the energy we need, and we invite others to also believe. Recruiting others attracts like-minded believers and the collective energy generated can catapult us to our destiny in high fashion.
May your dreams and the path you choose bring to life that which you seek. And we all must seek until we find. Safe travels.
The Final Thought: When setting our destination be mindful that there may be more than one way to get there. So let those unforeseen ways emerge and rest assured they will provide the wind to our sails that we seek.
