Replacing Fear with Adventure

You are so quick to place fear upon a situation that you have never encountered. 

You might be starting a new job, or looking for one. You might be meeting someone new or going somewhere you've never been. 

Rather than anticipating the next great disaster in your life, what if you changed your attitude?

Instead of seeing yourself as a potential victim, imagine that you are a great explorer or adventurer.

"What will this new day bring? What will I learn? What profound, life-changing, spiritual truths will I uncover this day?"

Go about each new day and new experience as though you are leaving to go on a vacation trip. 

 

What goes right, will bring you pleasant memories and joy, what goes wrong, will teach you valuable lessons and give you funny anecdotes to tell.

Your human tendency is to fear the unknown. This causes you to fear things such as success, power, money and love.

You try to attract these things while surrounded by your fears and often have less than stellar results.

Visualize yourself as having what you wish for and looking back and remembering that you just had to approach it with a sense of wonder and a dash of daring. 

Know that this vision is very real and waiting for you.

Little Commitments

Changing your life is a complex business. You may find yourself stopping and starting, committing to something new, and then forgetting about it the next day. 

This is in your nature. Routines and constant repetition are what will bring you success. Practicing an instrument or a new song or faithfully visualizing while repeating affirmations takes determination, but it is the best way to get there. 

You resist change because you want this routine. Your current routine, or lack thereof, is comfortable and feels safe, but it is not bringing you that which you desire. Your spirit knows that routine is the key to success, so you tend to fall into routines, even unhealthy ones. Your change will ideally become a new routine. In order to get there, however, you must break with the old one.

It is the most challenging thing you can do, but the doing will change your life. Hopefully in a good way if you are making positive choices. 

It takes several weeks to ingrain a new habit. This is what can be discouraging. That is a long time to be disciplined; to wake up early or turn off your television. It is a long time to spend without your favorite snacks or foods that are tasty, but not healthy.

Give yourself a smaller commitment. Try your new thing for 1 day. Commit to that day and do what you hope will become part of your life. 

When you are done, celebrate. Pat yourself on the back. Then try for two days. If you don’t succeed, relax. Try again another day.

Keep adding more days to the commitment until the new habit has become a part of your life.

Then add another goal and use the same process.

Celebrate your little successes and jump back in and try again when you do not succeed. 

Ask why you do not succeed on some days. They may give you the answer you need to reach your goal.

If you are alive on Earth at this time, you are among the elite of souls. Many on both sides of the veil are pushing for you.

Do not allow small setbacks to deter you. You are here to grow and achieve. Success is your birthright, prosperity is always around you.

Own your divinity, and never give up. Graduation day will be glorious. ~Silas
