One of the essential qualities of your personal spirituality, or your Soul print, is giving yourself permission to be unique and different. Ask yourself: - What inspires you?
- What motivates you?
- What is it that you feel the most passionate and driven by?
Sometimes you will find that the place where you feel uncomfortable, awkward, weird, anxious and/or nervous, is the place where you may need to be in order to fully express your true self. The discomfort is only an outer layer that has developed by the conditioning that you have been through in your life.All of which bring us to your true essence. Whatever your spiritual beliefs may be, you were born in the image of the Divine. In other words, you were put here for a very distinct purpose, to serve humankind and to live in your utmost greatness. The best way for you to fulfill this, and to be therefore more fulfilled, is to find the path of passion, purpose and your natural gifts and talents. When you are able to live in your gifts, talents, purpose and passion you will find your calling in life in that same place. This is your Highest Self. Your Highest Self is spirit-driven through your personal truth. Your smaller self, on the other hand, is ego-driven and is based much more out of fear and desperation. This ego-driven smaller self is easy to recognize in that you will spend a lot more time trying to be right than being real. Furthermore, when you are in your Highest Self, you will be always looking to discover what is new. The ego-driven life, on the other hand, tends to live in the predicting the past and forgetting the future mode. What this means is that there is a tendency of believing that the past will always repeat itself in the future and henceforth, does not allow for any change. So the ego tries to compensate by being something more than it really is. I have heard people refer to this as trying to drive your car by steering your rear-view mirror. You will be stuck looking at only what is behind you (the past) and run into or have accidents with what is in front of you (the future). I like to call this "living accidently". The bottom line is that you dont get anywhere in a hurry. It would be highly advantageous for you to practice daily activities that activate your Highest Self. This may include meditation, exercise, music, dancing, journaling, running, walks in nature, talks with others, or any of a number of other activities. It is essential that you find these spiritual waterholes so that you can refresh yourself and get refueled. By allowing yourself to live in your highest and truest spiritual self, you will find yourself much more connected to your intuition, or your "inner eyes", as well as having more serendipitous syncretistic occurrences. These serendipitous syncretistic occurrences, which some people call coincidences, happen in any number of ways and they are all reminders to you that you are on the path of where you need to be and where you are going to. You may also find yourself being more "lucky" but this is merely an increase in your awareness. When you are more aware, you are much more likely to prepare and be ready for opportunity. When opportunity and preparation are both in a state of awareness, you are increasing your luck factor. In-spire means to give direct the spirit inward, henceforth, feeding your inner self, or your Soul. When you feed your soul, cast out old unhealthy and dysfunctional beliefs, and live according to your purpose and vision you are creating an inner union with yourself that will guide and protect you through out your lifetime. |
