It is strange how we seem to come across the things that we need to hear or see right when we need it. I can’t say that I believe in coincidences, but rather believe certain events coincide with one another when we need them. It is as if a parallel path which was running along side of our current life, which we never noticed, merges with our path exactly when we need it, pointing us in the right direction….if we only stop to pay attention.
As I pondered which direction my life would take last week, I came across some insights which I thought I would share.
I believe if these questioned are answered in a honest and direct way, anyone can clearly see their true path. Whether we are choosing between multiple paths, or whether we have no real direction and have no idea where to go these questions may provide some clarity. Also, if you feel that you are floundering in life and can’t seem to find your way, maybe this will help you find the answers that are already inside….but are often clouded in fear.
I don’t know why these questions had such a profound impact, but that is the reason why I share them now. Maybe someone out there needs this right now.
-If you could do anything, and know that you could not fail, what would it be? Begin to move in that direction, this is likely your calling.
and…
-If you are torn between different paths, is one path a means to other? Which one is the means, and which one is the end? Once we arrive at our answer, we can begin to focus more of our attention on what we want as the ultimate path instead of having energy absorbed by the means.
Often we delude ourselves from our true calling, rationalizing being in a job or career we don’t like, because we tell our self we are working towards something else which we really want to do. This is fine, as long we realize that there comes a point where we must actually step onto the path which we want to be on. Be open, allowing the coinciding (those strange coincidences) events and experiencing in your life to pull you onto the path you know you were meant to walk.
If the path you were meant to walk is not clear, try focusing on the questions above. We all have some dream, but often they are stuffed deep inside and kept their by our own fear of failure.
One final point is that this life is our own. We get to choose how we will evolve personally. We can move back and forth between passions, or we can focus on one. Our passions are our own…they can be anything and we should not be ashamed of them. Our ultimate evolution will come from everyone on this planet pursuing there passions, listening to their intuition and living in the wonder that comes from that.
