Daniel's Insight



Although the following was intended for someone else, I feel compelled to share it. It speaks to belief, faith, and the ability to truly create our own reality. Sometimes we struggle to believe in ourselves and our ability to live our best life because we think we are undeserving. We struggle to give meaning to our own personal dreams and so we settle for only those things that are easily within reach, never fully realizing our own potential.  We can't do that unless we stretch and BELIEVE. I hope it speaks to you, too.

Here is Daniel's insight:

With any kind of a state that feels overwhelming or inescapable, the trick to breaking free from it is just to keep moving. You can't leave it if you remain focused on the negatives in it, whatever the look of things. You have to put your energy, efforts, and concentration into what you want for yourself. That is how you move from one state to another, by thinking and feeling from the state you desire, not the state you are in.

It's not easy if your mood is so centered in the condition you are unhappily experiencing. But if you continue to think and feel from there, that is what will be supported. So, it does take effort to shift to another state, but it can be done by using it as a catalyst to what you really want.

And one needs to have faith, to believe, and assume that you will have the desire you want. Imagining what you want , feeling what it will be like when you receive it, and assuming that you will have it are key to having the life you want for yourself.

The timing of it is up to a higher power. But it will unfold in your life. All your motivations are going to make it happen, helping you shift from one state to another. If you can change your thoughts, you can change your life. Every little effort that is applied multiplies towards reaching your goal.

Just keep moving while imagining, feeling, and living from the dream you have in mind. It will come through application and keeping the dream alive. It doesn't matter what the little steps or jobs toward the dream are. Every step counts and will lead you to your goal as long as you are diligent with keeping your dream alive daily. 

What we desire is there for a reason. It is part of our mission and fulfills our life. So, never give up on the desire. Just keep moving, knowing that it will be there no matter how things may appear to the contrary or what you may have to go through to get there. You have to stay up and keep moving in thought, feeling, and action.

Shift into this new state of realizing your dreams. It can be done. It's the difference between a movie you don't want to see again and a movie that you keep wanting to see, the kind of movie you want your life to be like. Don't think about the timing or how you are going to get there. You will get there. Imagine your dream fulfilled. Play out mental roles from the life of your dreams. See yourself depositing large summed checks into your account. See your friends and family expressing excitement in your personal achievements. Feel the love, the security, the accomplishment.

Don't give up, just keep moving. Don't worry about what you are going to do right now. Just do something, keep moving while keeping your dream alive and knowing it will come. Stand tall. Keep moving. Stay positive. Hold onto the dream. Anytime you feel discouraged, let it go, take a determined step forward with your dream in mind.

Thanks, Daniel
