Rapid Network

These are times of rapid change in our world. Natural disasters, financial crisis, family stress, death of loved ones and loss of all kinds are among the factors which have pushed us collectively into the type of uncertainty which ultimately leads to transformation. If you are among the many people who are experiencing this rapid change on a personal level, you may have temporarily lost sight of your deepest intentions and heart's desire. What used to be possible may seem impossible now. So how do you get what you truly want in an uncertain and shifting environment? Here are some things I've learned which have helped me navigate my way from the total loss of an old life (yes I have experienced everything but the natural disasters) to a new life which is full of everything I wanted that wasn't possible before.

1. With every loss there is an empty space for a new opportunity. Take charge of keeping the space clear so the new opportunities have a chance to take hold. Examine where negative emotions and thoughts are cluttering the empty space and seek help and support to clear them.

2. When you're in the empty space of loss, re-evaluate what you truly want. Let go of fear which keeps your paralyzed, and grieve what no longer serves you. This initially creates more empty space which can be scary. But remember that this is your space to create what you really want. Embrace it and claim it as your own.

3. As your external environment keeps shifting around you, make your internal environment as steady as possible. Meditate, pray, and use whatever means possible to stay centered and connected to your higher power and the power of your inner being.

4. Let go of how you think your heart's desire should look and tune into how you want it to feel.

5. Establish a keyword which describes the feeling of what you want to create, and measure every thought, action and opportunity against it. If it is not in alignment with the keyword don't pursue it. Your keyword is the anchor or central theme for what you intend to create in your empty space. It is a personal cue to keep you focused, and the magnetic beacon which attracts the elements of your heart's desire.

It is normal to feel fearful and out of control when your outer life gets shaky. You can move beyond the fear to a place of inner power and deep stability which will help you create a new life that was better than the one before. The power is within you. Take charge of it and let it help you create what you truly desire.
