DISCOVER YOUR DESTINY


Everything occurring in your life has been perfectly orchestrated to
inspire your maximum evolution as a human being and bring you into
your true power. Learn from life and allow it to take you where you
are meant to go- it has your highest interests in mind.
The best way to learn is to teach.

Your life is a treasure and you are so much more than you know
We receive life not from what we want but who we are
Courage is not the absence of fear but the willingness to walk through
your fear in pursuit of a goal that is important to you
Your life can be made even better by the things that break your heart
The greatest treasures are the treasures that lie within
Success is important but significance is even better
Have your beautiful things but do not be imprisoned by them. Own them
but do not let them own you. Give the main aim of your life over to
far more important pursuits such as discovery of your highest
potential, giving of yourself to others, and making a difference by
living for something more important than yourself. Success is fine but
significance is the real name of the game.

Things are never as bad as they seem. The situation that causes us
sorrow are the same ones that introduce us to the strength, power and
wisdom we truly are.

Feelings are the doorways into your soul and they must be acknowledged
and then felt to completion. Feelings carry important information and
serve to foster your self-relationship if explored fully.

As your awareness expands, you will become aware of things you
previously could neither see nor understand.

Your life will work much better once you begin to listen to life. Let
it lead you rather than trying to push the river. And trust that where
life carries you is exactly where you are meant to be. Let go of all
your resistance and move into a posture of surrendering to whatever is
unfolding.

It’s hard to believe we live in a world where most people are more
concerned with following the crowd and doing what everyone else is
doing than living their dreams.

One of the greatest regrets a person can ever have is getting to the
end of their lives and realizing they did not do their dreams.
There is but one failure in life and that is the failure to try.
The past is a grave and it makes no sense to spend your life living in
a grave. Every ending represents a new beginning. You cannot move
forward in life if you are stuck looking in the rearview mirror.
Big risks, big life. Small risk, small life.
No one discovers their destiny. Your destiny will discover you – it
will find you, provided you have done the preparation and inner work
required to seize the opportunity when it presents itself.
Spend time to know yourself. Tear down the façade you show the world.
Get to know your deepest and truest values. Get to know your
preferences and priorities.

Someone gave us our fears. We were born fearless
Who you are in this moment is not who you truly are. Rather, it’s
someone you’re become as a result of being in this world.
Every year I live I am more convinced that the waste of life lies in
the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish
prudence that will risk nothing, and which, shirking pain, missed
happiness as well. No one ever yet was poorer in the long run having
once in a lifetime “let out all the length of the reins”
Personal transformation is not a race, sometimes the harder you try to
change, the longer it takes.

Life is like a thriller, half the fun is not knowing what’s going to
happen. Life is so fluid.
Everything’s always changing. The way you think it’s going to unfold
is not the way it’s going to unfold. That’s the fun of the whole
exercise. That’s also the gift. Hold on to your plans and goals with a
loose grip.

Selfless service is the rent I pay for living on this wonderful world
You are here not merely to make a living. You are here in order to
enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer
spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and
you impoverish yourself if you forget that errand.
Just imagine that the purpose of life is your happiness only- then
life becomes a cruel and senseless thing. You have to embrace the
wisdom of humanity. Your intellect and your heart tell you that the
meaning of life is to serve the force that sent you into the world.
The life becomes a joy.

Money is the unintended yet inevitable byproduct of a life spent
helping others get what they want. Money is nothing more than payment
rendered by the universe in return for the value you have added to
others, As you sow, so shall you reap.

Once you connect with some kind of higher purpose and main aim in your
life, there will be a corresponding release of passion and energy in
your life. The secret of generating extraordinary levels of passion in
your life is to discover your larger purpose.

Fix your course to a star and you can navigate any storm.
Do your best – the very best that you know how to do in every
dimension of your life – and then let life do the rest. It’s really a
delicate balance between making it happen and letting it happen.
Once you’ve done your absolute best, let go and trust that whatever
comes is perfectly suited for the growth you need to evolve into your
best self.

When you set big goals and chase big dreams, you are engaging in a
hugely creative act. You are using your imagination and your abilities
to build something wonderful. That’s creativity in action.
We see the world not as it is but as we are.

It is time to come to your senses. You are to live and to learn to
laugh. You are to learn to listen to the cursed radio music of life
and to reverence the spirit behind it and to laugh at its distortions.
So there you are. Nothing more will be asked of you.

Self examination is the first step to personal greatness

1. Living a lie. What things will I not tolerate in my life. The stage
of self betrayal

2. The choice point. Continue to live as you have always been living –
and in doing so, resign yourself to a life of unhappiness and
mediocrity – or step up to your biggest life. The soul would rather
fail at its own life than to succeed at someone else’s. Nothing’s more
important than the bravery to live your life. The stage of releasing
control and breaking your chains.

3. Awareness of wonder and possibility. You see with a new set of
eyes. You see more of the truth than you have ever seen before. You
begin to understand that the world wants you to win and that it is a
place of great abundance, opportunity and majesty. People at their
core are good, it’s because of the hurts that life has visited on them
that they do bad things. The stage of seeing with new eyes.

4. Instruction from masters. Confusion always gives rise to clarity
over time. Beginning of real wisdom The stage of learning, filing and
preparation

5. Transformation and rebirth. Biggest self starts to present itself
on a daily basis and your entire world begins to change The stage of
emptying and refilling

6. The trial. The stage of testing and confirmation

7. The great awakening to self. The stage of fearlessness
On your deathbed, the only person you’ll have to answer is the person
you look at in the mirror every morning. You’d better be true to him.

The 5 daily devotions

1. Devote yourself to rising at A.M. each and every morning. Those who
get up early are those who get the best from life.

2. Devote yourself to setting aside the first 60 minutes of your day
as your HOLY Hour. This is your sacred time to do the inner work
required to help you become your best. Use this period to read from
the wisdom literature, to meditate or pray, to reflect on the state of
your life and the progress of your dreams in your journey, or to think
deeply about what must unfold over the coming hours of the day in
order for you to feel it was a successful one. Performing this ritual
daily will help you to shine brightly in the world and live at your
highest

3. Devote yourself to displaying a standard of care, compassion, and
character well beyond what anyone could ever imagine from you. In
doing so, you will be doing your part to aid in the building of a new
world.

4. Devote yourself to displaying a standard of excellence at work far
higher than anyone would ever expect from you. Abundance and
fulfillment will flow back to you.

5. Devote yourself to being the most loving person you know and
thinking, feeling, and acting as though you are one of the greatest
people on the planet (because you are). Your life will never be the
same and you will bless many lives.
You must surrender all you have known and walk into a new reality.
The purpose of life is all about making the journey home to wholeness,
back to a place of integrity, back to your authentic self – the one
that is fearless, all-knowing, and of boundless love. The purpose of
lofe is to close The Integrity Gap.

By taking personal responsibility for what went on within me and by
getting to know myself and the root causes of my negative reactions, I
could literally minimize recycling in my life.
Most people give up just steps before reaching their goals. Most
people quit only steps away from getting everything they wanted.

Rules for winning trials

1. Remember that life is a series of seasons. Every human being will
have to endure the harshness of a few winters in order to get to the
glory of the best summers. Never forget that winters do not last.

2. Join the Hope Club. Big, beautiful, and seemingly impossible goals
are superb vehicles to keep you inspired as you walk through
adversity. Fix your course to a star and you can navigate any storm.
When you are reaching for great and noble goals that speak to the best
within you, your desire to reach them will pull you through the tough
times that you will encounter along the seeker’s path.

3. Keep in mind, at all times, that we grow the most from our
sufferings. As we go through it, it hurts. But as we move through it,
it also heals. When a jug of water falls to the floor and cracks, what
was hidden within begins to pour out. When life sends you one of its
curves, remember that it has to help crack you open so that all the
love, power and potential that had been slumbering within you can be
poured into the world outside you. And, like a fractured bone, we do
become stronger in the broken places.

4. Failure is a choice. Nothing can stop a man or a woman who simply
refuses to be kept down. The book The GoGetter will be very helpful on
this point. Read it often. Just make a decision from the center of
your heart that, no matter what happens to you, you will keep walking
the authentic path. Doing so will ensue you a life of real success.

5. During tough times, there is a tendency to let go of yourself. As
you encounter adversity, have the discipline to maintain your routine.
Get up early. Do your holy hour. Eat very well. Exercise, Spend time
with nature and make sure you do all you can to keep all four of your
central dimensions – the mind, the body, the emotions, and the spirit
– in fine operating order.

6. Feel your feelings. When you are facing hard times, some people
will tell you to “just think positite thoughts”. Such advice is not
helpful. The key is to strike a balance. Experience the feeling that
arise so you do not end up swallowing them and allowing them to
fester. As the same time, use your intellectual powers to see the
silver lining that every dark cloud brings.

7. Remember that, no matter how hard things get, you are never alone.
