The Mystic's Message

It's totally ok for you to be exactly where you are. 

In this moment, you can't be anywhere else anyway. So you may as well make peace with where you are. 

Because the more you resist it...

...the frustrations

...the not good enough's

...the should's, would's, and could's...

...the more stuck you'll be. 

So put your hand on your heart, close your eyes, and repeat after me. 

"It's totally ok to be exactly where I am." 

Let's be clear, it's not an excuse to opt-out. No. It's permission to…

Who doesn't love happy thoughts? Warm fuzzy feelings invite us into deeper receptivity, and joy is a natural outcome of that receptivity. 

This leads many to believe that if they just train their mind to be more 'positive' then their life will improve. 

But here's the thing...

You don't need to train yourself to be more positive; Love and peace and joy is your natural state. It's just that in a noisy, chaotic world, those parts get often get obscured. 

And then you think, well, I just need t…

It's true. The great ones and holy ones have been saying it for eons...

You're omniscient; all knowing.

Everything you've ever wanted is within you. 

But never forget...

Those same great ones and holy ones had help to come to that realization. They didn't do it in a vacuum. 

The had teachers. They had guides. They had community. 

So don't let the idea that 'all the answers are within you' get you stuck- thinking you have you figure it all our yourself. Because it still counts even if you h…

Somewhere along the way, shame and humility got twisted up. 

As if you have to put yourself down in order to be humble. 

We self-deprecate to show how 'real' we are. And that's only on the outside. On the inside we're our own worst critic. The nagging voice that never quits. 

It's a tool we use to push ourselves to greater achievements. Shame keeps us from getting complacent. 

But what if there were a better way? 

A way to say, "My best is enough; I am enough...

...and I can continue to be…

Enthusiasm is a beautiful thing. But don't let it fool you. 

The bright-eyed and bushy-tailed energy of enthusiasm is easy to come by when things are fresh and new- this is the honeymoon of any endeavor.  

But where does enthusiasm go when challenges arrive on the scene? 

Does it vanish as quickly as it came when the monotonous repetition required for mastery sets in? 

There is a difference between enthusiasm and commitment. You can see it in the eyes if you know what to look for; it's writt…

You're the center of every experience in your life; The star of the show. 

You are the problem AND the solution; the lock and the key. 

There is no external solution to an internal problem- not one that will last anyway. 

This is the secret that hides in plain sight. 

Everyone has heard it, but few pay it any attention. 

Endless mysteries and magic will unfold in your life if you'll only look within. 

The solution to any problem in your life is inside that same problem; inside you. 

Your …

It's a simple question, really. Are you ready? 

REALLY ready? 

Ready to achieve your highest and most important goals? 

Ready for your greatest wishes to come true? 

Ready for a miracle in your life? 

Most people will say, "Yes, of course! I've been waiting!" 

Yet, when things really start moving, they'll put the brakes on. Too much, too soon. Nuh uh. Nope. 

Ask again...

Are you ready? 

REALLY ready? 

Being ready isn't about bracing yourself for the onslaught, and it's not about steeli…

Why do bad things happen to good people? 

I don't know...

...and neither do you. 

Not really, anyway. But that doesn't mean we can't do anything about it. 

Here's what I mean...

If our present moment is just a result of all our past choices, then the best we can do is walk into each moment unencumbered by our past; truly free to chose something beautiful for our lives. 

No more dragging old hurts and resentments around like Santa and his bag of toys. 

Because every moment we drag those wo…

The truth about YOU is that you are already whole and perfect.

You can choose to be in harmony with that truth, or you can choose to be in conflict with that truth.

No matter what you choose, that truth won't change.

You can deny it, and you will still be whole and perfect.
You can feel unworthy of it, and you will still be whole and perfect.
You can reject parts of yourself, and you will still be whole and perfect.

The real question is this...

Do you want to spend the precious time you have …

If you want real change in your life, something needs to shift inside of you...

...but it might not be what you think.

Even though your emotions might be the loudest, scariest, most uncomfortable aspect of a situation, real change is about something deeper. 

Real change happens when you change your decisions. 

Your emotions are your choice. 

Your thoughts are your choice. 

Your actions are a result of your emotions and thoughts, which make them, you guessed it, your choice. 

Every mome…
