Live on Purpose!

Have you taken ‘destiny’ into your own hands creating it and living life on purpose or do you find yourself responding to circumstances beyond your control allowing your growth period to take over?

Living life on purpose means taking your life (and growth) into your own hands. It means that YOU get to create and/or re-create your  destiny! It means knowing that whatever comes your way, you are not powerless. You are in total control of how you react and move forward in ANY situation!

Your life and growth are in constant movement that never stops. You can become the effect of it or you can generate energy, purposefully growing and moving toward your goals. There is a clear difference when you do something on purpose, without effort and consciously. Think of it like a run (or walk). You start at point A and want to go to point B. If you are running against a strong wind,  in effort, dreading every step it feels like you are ‘pounding the pavement’ and carrying dead weight. The focus shifts from enjoying the run to just getting through it.

When you decide to run ON PURPOSE instead of just one foot moving after the other unconscious of anything but dead weight, you hold your upper body straight and take each step on purpose with awareness. You become consciously engaged in the process. Those steps taken on purpose, allow you to enjoy the run, go farther, and finish faster. Taking each step on purpose also allows you to change direction at will! Perhaps there’s another path you’d like to explore. A path that is paved by you, not a path created by someone else.

Life is very much the same as going out for a run or walk. You can put one foot in front of the other and move along responding or you can tap into your inner resources, connect with your purpose and take your life and destiny into your own hands. If you are in effort, defining yourself from past experiences, resisting every step, chances are you feel stuck and you’re not enjoying the growth that as spirit you came here to experience this lifetime.

Living life on purpose means waking up and navigating which direction your life goes. It means letting go of the past, expanding your horizons and discovering who you are and what YOU really want for YOU. It means that every step you take is a choice and that you are taking ownership of that choice. When you live your life on purpose, there is no chance only choice. The choices you make and the steps you take in present time are the ones that determine your destiny!

Connect with your inner resources, listen to your internal navigation, discover your purpose, take each step with awareness, change direction if you wish, live your life on purpose and create your destiny!~Shine Your Light Debbie

Judgement, Fear & the Twilight Zone…

The energy of judgement is very prevalent in our society. I’m sure you’ll all agree that being judged by someone else doesn’t feel very good. 

We are judged by our looks, the color of our skin, body type, personality and even our religious beliefs among other things.

Living in Chicago and having the opportunity to watch as our politicians go on trial for corruption is interesting. 

Some are convicted and others, as in a more recent and very public case, are not. What seems to be missing is the actual TRUTH.

The energy of  judgement and being judged by a jury of your peers is something to be aware of even if you are not actually in a courtroom. It is an energy steeped in fear which causes division and limits.

I think most of us, on one level or another, are on trial every day. Much of the time WE put OURSELVES on trial and in doing so try to  “prove it”.

You  prove to your boss or clients you are doing your job, prove  your  love (proving is not expressing 🙂 ), prove to your parents you are doing the right thing  and in many instances, you even have to prove to yourself that you are beautiful and successful.

The ‘prove it’ trial of self judgement is the most energetically ‘charged’ of them all! Do you have judgement about your body? How much money you make? Whether you are good or better than someone else at what you do?

Is your personal jury deadlocked and stuck on a picture that you can’t or shouldn’t do something  because  you’re not good enough or you don’t deserve it? If so, what or whose information are you using to compare or prove it to?

You may be acting as both judge AND jury all in one and I’m just guessing but I’ll bet that YOU are your toughest critic! That being said, it’s worth taking a look at where that judgement comes from.

Take a step back and as a neutral observer notice if your judgements are based on truth or someone else’s picture/information on what it should be according to them?

There is a Twilight Zone episode that illustrates my point. In “Eye of the Beholder”. Janet Tyler is in hospital waiting for the outcome of her latest operation to be revealed. If not successful, she will be forced into a segregated area where others of her kind are kept.

This is a perfect example of how taking on someone else’s information creates fear & judgement. Were the witches on trial and put to death in Salem really witches or was it based on fear, gossip and incorrect information? 

If you feel the need to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt, how about finding what is true for YOU? I can tell you with a great deal of certainty that the way we judge ourselves and others comes from fear, pictures and concepts outside of us.

You can’t stop someone from judging you but you certainly don’t have to take on that judgement and live from it. Journey within and find  neutrality to free yourself from  judgement.  Find the space between the darkness & light to see  truth. ~Shine Your Light Debbie
