It’s a New Year, a New Day, a New Way to start right?
Let’s lose weight, let’s make more money, let’s get new homes, cars, careers, boyfriends, even husbands! Yes, it’s all possible! We’re all here to create, to desire, to receive, to dream…and dream BIG!

So how do we start? What’s the best way to make room for all that we deserve?

Vision boards, contracts, deliberate intentions? Yes they’re all good, and there are many ways to stimulate the subconscious mind. But for me, sometimes it’s the simple technique of merely knowing that we are part of a divine plan that works best.

What does this mean? It means that we are innately part of a great rich substance that automatically self corrects. We are hard-wired to win, to be happy, to be provided for. It means that we matter; we deserve; we are great, special, beautiful…and we are doing the best we can. We are enough!

So why aren’t we experiencing the life we were meant to be living?
Hmmm… Tough call. Many writings and teachings tend to imply that if you were only doing more affirmations, or mental exercises, or chants, or prayers….you’d be rolling in it.

So unfair. Although it may be guised as “spiritual text,” I find so many books and articles that mean well but instead fall into the category of conditional thought.

Like “If you become this” or “If you do that,” then you will become greater, better, more perfect, more rich, more thin. Yea, I get it. And they do have a point. There is always room for self improvement.

But what I’ve learned through the many years of guiding others and being guided, touching souls and hearts, and exploring all the other metaphysical, ethereal worlds of bliss and enlightenment, is that we have what it takes to win!

We are perfect right here, right now. We are rich, purposeful, defiant and determined. We are survivors, abusers, addicts and pretenders. We are masters of drama, sabotage, rescue, judgment and blame. We are fatalistic and cruel. We are optimistic and valiant. We can overcome any challenge.

We have what it takes to re-direct ourselves, resurrect, and forgive. It’s up to us. It’s all part of our pre-planned menu. It’s all a choice.

So, while creating your New Year’s goals, visions boards, forgiveness notes, and deliberate intentions, relish who you are right now. Not what you’ve done or accomplished—good or bad—negative or positive—but what you instinctively know who you are meant to be. Relish this awakening and remember your greatness.

Decide to be in each moment, in the present, with delicious surrender and confident abandonment that what you want truly wants you. That you cannot do nor are you supposed to worry about past mistakes or incorrect judgments.

Decide who you want to be, where you want to live, how you want to live, and what you want to do. And what you thought was unattainable will soon become your new reality –just because you decided it to be.

Appreciate the human drama. Each struggle, pain and triumph creates a vivid color on our collective canvas. Refuse mediocrity. Release the need to judge, condemn, or compare yourself to others. Get out of that driving lane which only leads to more conflict and angst.

Give of yourself, openly, thoroughly, consistently, without fame and glory—just do it. Whomever or whatever you give to another-money, time, consideration, is directly connected to your future fortune and bliss! How? Because you are giving out WORTH!

See everyone equal, because they really are, and do not give your power away by going along with gossip, condemnation, humiliation, judgment or entitlement thinking, (these are sure fire ways to block your divine inheritance!)

Be free of ridicule—do not care—and ask to see yourself through "their” eyes regardless of your method of faith or religion. Something greater than ourselves (God, Angels, Spirit, Nature, Universe, Light, etc.) loves us very, very much!

Transcend each and every moment. Forgive, release and let go of any thoughts, ideas, people, or reactions that you do not want to experience. Stay focused and clear on only the possibility of your joy—not the illusive reality someone else has created.

Surrender your painful memories, hurt, frustrations or grudges to whomever you feel comfortable talking and/or praying to.

Remember it’s the intention to be free of destructive blocks that’s important, not the method or conditional thought. “They/He/She” do (does) not care what you call them.

See yourself as “they” do—funny, sad, affectionate, sensitive, creative, hopeful—all emotions are perfect—that’s why you have them.

And trust that your ideas, desires and joys are not only being heard but are being placed in your path, all falling under the category of “Divine Timing!”

Nothing goes wasted—ever—especially the love you have for yourself and others. Forgive yourself for forgetting this.

Your inspired mindset will take you to new places that you never dreamed of—or maybe you have. Either way it’s time to receive all that’s great in the world just because your are part of it.

Hold out your hands, close your eyes, breathe in your light and say,

“Thank You” for these divine gifts. As your hands get heavy (and they will) smile and place these dreams and desires in your heart. Realize this moment is the start of all great things! Today is your day-this is your year! Ask, relish, attract and receive!
