Stop Chasing Your Dreams
When you listen within, everything works.
The idea is to set a clear intention for your dreams and goals, and then release that intention and get back to the powerful work of letting the work be the work and letting you be you.
Which is to say:
Stop trying to FORCE success.
Stop trying to make up rules about what you have to do each day, or at all, in order to get there, in order to make it, in order to have enough, in order to BE enough.
And choose to TRUST that your intention once set will come to fruition as and when it’s meant to and that if it doesn’t it’s because it was always about this or something BETTER, something more aligned, something you couldn’t yet see but which is actually completely right, for you.
This doesn’t mean set a goal and then do nothing, be nothing, wait for life to come and hand you success on a silver fucking platter.
It means decide who it is you actually WANT to be, in all areas of your life.
Decide what it is you wish to create, achieve, or otherwise bring into reality.
Do this based on what is ALIGNED, what simply feels right and sure and true for you, even though it may VERY well make no sense or seem flat out ridiculous.
And then trust.
Trust.
TRUST that with your intention set and you now simply showing up each day and being who you need to BE, that it will all work out EXACTLY as it was meant to.
The thing you’ve got to understand is that it always DOES work out exactly as it was meant to. So if right now you feel you aren’t getting a fair lot in life, that it’s too hard, it feels too forced, it’s so STRESSFUL and you have the constant fear of never getting there, never having enough, never BEING enough, then I can tell you with certainty:
You need to stop concerning yourself with what it is you need to DO to break through this stuck and awful space.
And you need to start getting seriously fucking fixated on who it is you need to BE to wake up each day with certainty and self-belief that transcends the day to day ups and downs which life will inevitably throw you, and then to go to bed each night knowing that no matter what did happen, or get done, or what the outcome WAS that you showed up –
And you did a damn fine job of being you.
And so therefore any OUTCOME attained (or not) is just how it was supposed to be because why would you want to achieve or otherwise ‘get’ anything, anything at all, that required you to not be you?
It’s actually a really REALLY fantastic fucking filter:
Think you ‘should’ do something but know it doesn’t feel aligned or fun or just RIGHT? DON’T DO IT because any outcome you DO manage to achieve will certainly NOT be one of true satisfaction or success. It’s not POSSIBLE if it was based on not being you.
On the other hand (and this is truly kickass!!):
Feel called to do something or excited to do something that is completely random, crazy, makes no sense at all and really is NOT necessary or a good use of time? DO IT, because it’s coming from a place of being YOU and that is where true success comes from!
So fucking TRUE.
So straightforward, actually!
So, a question:
What would today look like, if your focus was purely on doing a damn fine job of being you?
Would you make more space for creativity?
Would you make more space to breathe?
Would you push harder, or would you push less?
Would you GO GO GO because the truth is that’s what you love, or would you LET LET go because the truth is that’s what you need?
Would you write?
Would you speak?
Would you let your art out even though it didn’t ‘have’ to be done for business or sensible reasons?
Would you work out today?
Would you indulge in some extra special self-care?
Would you play?
Would you go slower, or faster?
Would you do less, or more?
What would it LOOK like today, if you’d set clear and true and specific intentions for what you wish to create –
And if you fully TRUSTED that your only role now was to show up and be the you who you are called to be?
I believe that these sort of wonderments are THE most powerful we can ask of ourselves, because this – this is where FLOW comes from. And when we’re in flow we create TRUE success, true wealth, and also have the true IMPACT we were brought here to make.
Flow doesn’t mean without struggle or upset. Flow means that you are ON PATH and that your focus is simply staying on path, whether it be smooth or bumpy doesn’t really matter so long as it’s the true PATH.
But as soon as you allow your daily actions to be dictated by what is essentially a lack of trust that you are on path, you step away from being who you actually need to BE … your focus has switched to doing ahead of being … and what may seem like a good idea at the time; because after all you want to make.shit.happen. and FORCE those results, is in fact something that pulls you off your true path –
Out of flow –
And into the wilderness of who the fuck knows what you’re doing, but certainly not YOU.
A reminder:
Once pulled off your true path you generally will NOT jump straight back on. You generally WILL wander around the wilderness grasping frantically at STUFF you think is going to fulfil you or get you somewhere.
And the more of the STUFF you grasp at the further you drift from where YOU were mean to be.
When all the while –
If you just trusted –
And listened within –
You could have been way way WAY down your own path.
Still doing the work.
Still riding out the waves.
But ON FUCKING PATH.
Don’t you want to finally just find your true path, get back to your true path, and stick with it?
Wouldn’t it feel amazing to know that when you PUSH or FIGHT or STRUGGLE it’s part of your true PATH not simply for the sake of it?
Wouldn’t it just make so much more SENSE if all you had to do each day, was show up –
And do a damn fine job of being you?
It’s time to make a choice to trust gorgeous.
It’s time to stop CHASING dreams by trying to FORCE success and tell flow which way down the stream it should go.
You don’t get to choose the path.
But you do get to choose whether or not you will follow it.
Set your intentions.
Get excited and clear and SPECIFIC about them.
Get into ALIGNMENT around who you know you’re meant to be.
And then show up –
Every damn day –
And act accordingly as you let TRUTH show you the way.
