A day hardly goes by in which I don't have a client or student call me despairing over the inability to create her or his heart's desires. "I'm visualizing. I'm letting go. I'm making right choices. I'm trying so hard! What is wrong? What is keeping me from my dream?" they cry. Usually when I hear such despairing words, my suspicions go directly to their application of Principle #2 of Your Heart's Desire: Believe in Your Dream.
You see, most people have no difficult envisioning their dreams, and will do anything to achieve them. But Principle #2 is not about doing. It is about accepting what the Universe will do for you. It is about having enough self-love to believe that what you dream of, dreams of you as well, and that the universe wants you to have such experiences.
If you are stuck in creating your heart's desire in spite of your efforts, then focus your attention on Principle #2, and ask yourself if you honestly believe in your dream. Can your heart open enough to allow the Universe to bring you your desires? Can you believe that what you want is not only possible but it is your spiritual birthright - whether is love, work, health, or friendship?
Sadly enough, many people do not believe this. Instead, through childhood upsets and early life training, they believe they don't deserve anything at all. It is what they've been told. It is what they've learned. And it is what holds them back. One may not be conscious of these sabotaging feelings. These beliefs may be so loathsome and painful that they are carefully hidden behind all that "doing" and go unrecognized.
I usually spot these beliefs by how hard one tries; as if only by some superhuman effort can one deserve any happiness at all. If you are harboring such destructive beliefs, you will remain separate from your heart. Recognize these beliefs for what they are: absolute, complete and life-destroying lies. They are not the truth of you.
The truth is you are spiritual light being, a child of God, sweet and lovable, pure and simple. Embrace it. Inhale it. Remember it. Believe it! And stop trying. You are loved and lovable. You don't have to work for it. It is there for you because of who you are.
If you have lost touch with this truth, take in a slow breath. Do you question your right to air? Of course not. You take in air without effort by virtue of being human. In the same way, receive from the Universe what lies in your heart, by virtue of being divine. So be it! Happy creating!
As An Intuitive
As an intuitive and spiritual teacher, my mission in life has long been to guide people toward creating and experiencing the kind of lives their hearts desire. Lives that are physically grounded, emotionally creative, and intellectually engaging, where one feels loved, listened to, intuitive, inspired, and spiritually fulfilled. I not only believe this kind of life is possible, I actually believe it is our birthright and our Creator's natural plan for us.
Why Pay Attention To Your Intuition?
One thing you will discover when you begin to nurture your intuition, is that what you are truly doing is nurturing you most authentic self, your spirit. Nurturing intuition is actually the art of discovering and honoring who you really are. Being intuitive means looking into your heart and recognizing the genuine self within. It means empowering yourself with the understanding that you are a spiritual being, a royal child of the light, thus keeping you from the darkness and confusion of searching for yourself worth through the approval of others.
Right Versus Wrong
As you begin to tune into the world of energy, there are times when you may experience what appear to be false alarms. For example you may have a worrisome feeling and yet it turns out that everything is just fine. Does that mean that your intuition isn't reliable.
