We know that we can marshal our power to fulfill our wishes. How to do it? Get clear what we want, work inside till we feel as happy as we will when we have it, relax and let the universe provide. Since we are already feeling good, the time required becomes less important because we already feel good! Review this example. Continue reading

We tune into the journey of our lives more and more and make the “get there” less of a focus. Everything we want is to feel good now, feel better now, following that leads us to a satisfying process of living.
As we employ this “I love the journey” moment to moment, we will flow through the “not preferred” times with more ease. A story from Gwendoline below illustrates the point—a personal injury blip, slowed down so we can notice what she did for herself step by step. Continue reading
