This Week's Topic: The if in Your Life Dear Friend, "The way to activate the seeds of your creation is by making choices about the results you want to create. When you make a choice, you activate vast human energies and resources, which otherwise go untapped." ~Robert Fritz This week I want to turn our focus to the choices in your life. L - if - e. The if in life represents the choices we make to create the life we want. Often part of reaching new goals requires us to make new decisions about our life. We must let go of past habits and create new ones. This requires an intentionality and deliberate choice on our part. This is also one of the blessings of life that we have a choice and that our lives can be shaped by our choices. In order to take ownership for our life we must also recognize that each choice we make, even when we fail to make a choice is also our responsibility. This week I want you to think about every if in your life as a choice...a choice to follow a dream, to hear your heart, to listen to your inner-voice, to follow through on your goals, or even to risk failure by taking a chance. Each choice we face helps to shape us and serves to mold our life. Remember, it takes courage to powerfully choose your path. Make It Happen Review the goals you set forth in week 1. Are you working towards these goals already? If so - you've chosen. If not - you've also chosen. If you aren't working towards your 2010 goals review your goals and ensure they are authentic and inspiring. Consider that if you haven't begun to work on your 2010 goals maybe they aren't the right goals for you? By facing the if in life you powerfully choose to embrace your magnificence. When you tap into the power of your choices you connect with your ability to create the life you desire. May you be blessed for you are a blessing!
