Time often seems like the enemy. We feel rushed and there never seems to be enough of it. We “strive” to reach goals and somewhere along the way we cease to feel like a human being and instead feel like a humandoing. Does success have to come at the expense of our well being? Do we always have to be plugged in to work and sacrifice our personal life for our professional life? I say no and invite you to join me in eliminating the belief that says professional success = personal sacrifice. Life does not have to be hard, and success does not require an endless stream of obstacles and sacrifices. Most popular goal setting programs and tools are too structured. They lead to over-scheduling, high stress and a never-ending list of TASKS and HAVE TOs that strip the joy from your journey. When that happens, your spirit will ultimately rebel and that’s when you get into a tug of war between the dreamer and the doer. You feel like a human doing. Planning doesn’t serve us if it makes us feel pressured. On the other hand, overly magnetic or fluid approaches help you create vivid and inspiring dreams and goals, but those goals don’t often materialize. This is because when we disregard structure, we lose the power of focused effort. So, it’s easy to float along getting distracted by the next shiny balloon and never arriving at your desired destination. The way we manage our time ultimately determines whether we live the life we truly want. When we fail to achieve a goal, it’s often the result of either over-planning (too much structure and not enough creativity), or under-planning (great dreams, but not enough support). The system you used simply didn’t address the underlying energetic principles that are playing out. In other words, success requires us to honor both the dreamer and the doer. How do you know if your perception of time is helping you? Simple … when you are in the flow and aligned with Right Action …Time is not an issue. The point is to do what you have to do to enjoy the journey!Because you literally are what you feel. If you feel stressed and over-worked, guess what you’ll keep attracting into your experience? Align with thoughts and feelings that support what you really desire. Whether you want more time to connect with family and friends, or more money, or greater success… pay attention to how you feel. For thoughts of scarcity about time, or anything, means that your focusing on the problem, instead of the solution. If you perceive time as the enemy, you’ll feel pressured and everything will seem harder than it actually is. Your perceptions create your reality and the quality of your life. So choose to do what you love and love what you do within the context of time. That’s when you feel the power of the Universe assisting you! We miss the mark if we focus on the desired outcome at the expense of the present moment. So first and foremost, it’s about enjoying the journey. Feed your spirit by getting aligned with the experiences you want to have, as you pursue your most treasured goals and dreams. Don’t make your personal happiness dependent on the outcome of a goal or dream. When you pay attention to the quality of the experience as you step confidently toward our goals, the desired outcomes will most certainly materialize, faster, minus the stress and obstacles. Dream, Do, and Receive!
