Pointing toward purpose
+++++++++++++++++++

Delight in dreaming about what could be. But don’t take permanent refuge in those unfulfilled dreams.

Instead, start working your way to them, little by little. Begin to transform those dreams into your actual reality.

Give yourself credit for everything you’ve already been able to achieve. Then point that process of achievement directly at the dreams you long to reach.

There is great value in moving toward something positive and desirable. Even if you are not fully committed or confident, you can go through the motions, and that has value too.

You are at your best when you are pointing toward a meaningful purpose. That purpose will bring energy, resourcefulness, and determination to the surface.

Go ahead, imagine the future in a positive way, and take a step in the direction of that future. Discover for yourself how a positive vision for the future can improve your experience of life right now.

The things that we would be asking ourselves is, “What proportion of my day am I in vibrational harmony with my desires, which means, how much of my day am I happy, glad, eager, fulfilled, satisfied, complimentary? And what percentage of my day am I ornery, irritated, frustrated, or blaming?” And you don’t have to do 100%, you don’t have to do 90%, you don’t have to do 80%. If you could even get around 55% feeling better, then not feeling so good — you’d have significant movement in what begins to happen in your experience. – Abraham

Let life be
+++++++++++++++++++

Let the little things bring you joy. Let the big things give you inspiration.

Let the challenges make you more determined. Let the problems bring out your skills.

Let your differences with others build a pathway to new understanding. Let your fears show you how to exercise your courage.

Let the noise and confusion teach you to be more focused. Let the annoyances, distractions and interruptions strengthen your patience.

Let the new moments come, let the past go. Let experience show up and teach you its lessons.

Let life be as life will be. And let yourself grow more alive, more capable, more purposeful and effective as a result.

Early start
+++++++++++++++++++

Early morning holds the power of the whole day ahead. Welcome that power, embody it, make use of it.

A good night’s rest has refreshed your senses and transformed yesterday’s challenges into today’s strength. Early morning introduces that new strength to the day’s new opportunities.

Start early with the day, invigorated by the prospect of working through new challenges. As the day brightens, feel your effectiveness grow.

While the day’s possibilities still seem endless, seize firmly upon some of them. This is an ideal time to do what matters, to do what satisfies your desire to make a difference.

Join in eagerly as the world comes to life. Celebrate and appreciate all over again the wonder that stretches out in every direction.

Give yourself the advantage of an early start. Tap into the early morning magic that dances before your eyes.
