HJ: Flow and effortlessness is a result of choosing the path of least resistance.  That doesn’t mean choosing an easy path, per se, but to choose a path that has the least internal FEELING of resistance.  This is your unique path of flow.  Follow the feeling and it will lead you to great places.

A Brief Guide to Effortless Action

By Manal Ghosain | One With Now

Can you remember a time in your life when you got lost in what you were doing? You lost track of time, had no sense of where you were, you were fully immersed in the experience.

When you were done, you felt exhilarated, yet calm. You finished what you were doing without struggle. You didn’t have to force yourself to focus, or to stay in one place. You didn’t even think about it. You were in the zone. It just happened.

HJ: There is but one purpose in this life: to give yourself fully to your dreams with all of your heart.  And of course, to remove all obstacles preventing you from doing so.  Because in all honesty, many times, this is enough.  Throw in a bit of motivation and inspiration and you become unstoppable.

7 Simple (and Surprising) Tips to Help You Realize Your Dreams

By Lisa Esile | Tiny Buddha

“Don’t be pushed by your problems; be led by your dreams.” ~Unknown

It’s tricky sometimes, isn’t it?

Trying to find our place on this planet.

Tapping into our inner desires.

Sometimes we know what we want but not how to get there. Sometimes we know “this isn’t me,” but we have no clue who “me” is. And sometimes we think we’re already there, then something out of the ordinary happens and we realize, this isn’t me at all.

HJ: Change is the universe self-correcting through you towards balance, harmony and joy.  Life is constantly nudging you towards your highest fulfillment and self expression.  And when you remember this truth, even though change might be uncomfortable or difficult in the moment, you always know it’s for your highest good.

10 Ways To Embrace Change: Empower Yourself, Empower our World

By Mona Delfino | Prevent Disease | Sacred Connections

Recently many people have been asking me about how changes can work when they feel lost, or stuck. I say that you really are not lost, or stuck, even though it feels like that! Truthfully, you are in transition and as with any shift, even with diets, we hit a plateau. In the world of internal change, although we can feel that we are without direction, recognizing anything is called an “A-HA” moment.

HJ: What you choose to believe creates your reality and so why not choose optimism?  Why expect negativity and destruction and hardship?  You’re certainly entitled to create that if you’d like and yes many lessons can be learned through suffering, but optimism, when combined with inner healing work always produces the most joyous and nourishing reality.  And so, we present a guide to help you do just that.

Optimism

By Dadi Janki, Peter Vegso, and Kelly Johnson | HCI Books

Sweetness is a virtue that searches for the good in every person and situation.
At its heart is the conviction that there is always something positive to be found.
You simply need the patience to discover it.

HJ: We do not see life as it is — we see life as we are.  And yet most people assume we see the world objectively.  And therein lies a great source of pain and suffering because we are projecting our thoughts and beliefs onto the world around us, believing that this is how the world is, when it is just us playing a game with ourselves.  And so we constantly fool ourselves into believing what we already believe is true, is true.  And we create our reality and then let it control us.  But it doesn’t have to be this way.  When you start seeing life as a reflection of your own heart and mind — when you understand that you read whatever meaning into situations you choose to believe, you can then use ‘reality’ as a tool for self-reflection and growth.  This is one of the most powerful shifts you can make because it switches you from a victim into a powerful creator.  And it is how you shift your reality by shifting yourself.  And in the great article below, Nanice dives into even more detail on this subject.
