Happy Now
Year, Friends!
Yes, you
read that right. I wrote Happy
"Now" Year instead of Happy "New" Year. It’s not a typo. It's just my way of
reminding you about the important part that the present moment plays in the
manifestation process.
As I
frequently mention, fulfilling your heart’s desires effortlessly depends upon
your ability to recognize and follow divine guidance. But that guidance only
comes to you in “the now”—through what you are intuitively feeling now, through what others are telling you
now, and through the signs and
synchronicities that you are noticing now.
That
doesn’t mean that there isn’t value in spending some time visualizing what you
want to have, do, or be in the coming year. In fact, that’s important. Focusing
on a destination is what sets the whole flow in motion in the first place. But after that, you must return your
attention to the present moment, so you can sense the next right step that the
divine flow is directing you to take.
It’s sort
of a back-and-forth thing: You visualize your goal, then return your awareness
to the present moment. You picture your
dream, then come back to the here and now. If you are continually focused on the future—continually daydreaming about
where you are headed—you may miss the
very step that is leading you there.
To live
life in the divine flow, you must let go of your projections into the future—as
well as your reflections on the past—so you can be present for the doors that
are being divinely opened for you right here, and right now.
Do you
have a particular desire that you would like to fulfill in 2013? A goal that you would like to accomplish? A
dream that you would like to realize?
You do? Terrific! Then tell the
Universe exactly what it is you would like to achieve this year, and pay keen
attention to what starts to show up in your life.
But
please remember this: Although having desires and pursuing desires is an
inescapable part of your innately creative nature, you never have to fulfill a
desire in order to be happy; you never have to accomplish a goal in order to be
happy; and you never have to realize a dream in order to be happy. Remember
that real happiness—true,
long-lasting happiness—only comes from accepting and appreciating the current moment for whatever it is offering you . . . and from opening up your heart
and being the love that you are in that moment. That, my friends, is the real
key to having a happy new year—from the first day of the year to the very last.
