Get Out of the Way

  

"We don't feel deserving of life's blessings,

we end up sabotaging ourselves."

Elevated opportunities and options are available, but we don't realize they are meant for us.  We do not believe we could tackle such a gateway leading to support of our dreams and goals. We are so focused on one particular plan, we shut out the possibilities of something greater.  Negative self-talk nips it in the bud.

When I survey my accomplishments with two self-owned businesses, I remember embracing creative ideas with realistic awareness of pitfalls.  I followed my outline marking areas that I couldn't possibly fulfill.  I did not give up however, I asked for help.  In my community I shared my proposal with others and asked in what way could they help.  In prayer I expressed, "If I am really meant to do this, please continue to lead me to what or whom I need."

As I reached out to others, I listened to what they could provide and adjusted my needs accordingly.  Spiritually, I kept my dream flexible to truly be led and not to bull dose myself into rigid thinking.  If we tell ourselves, "I can't!" then we won't.  If we welcome sunshine, weather the rain, and remain grounded we will persevere.  We will be provided with what we need or something better, but we must remain expectant while reaching both outwards and inwards.  The synchronicity of life will blend pieces together if we get out of our own way.
