Are you having fun working toward your vision?

I hear so many coaches and mentors these days, insisting that accomplishing your goals is hard work. And, although it may be true that it has been hard in the past, it doesn’t have to be.

Esther and Jerry Hicks are my favorite teachers. When I follow the Abraham-Hicks method for accomplishing my goals, it is easy and fun. Inspiration is such a great way to prepare to take action!

It’s easy (and all too common) to go from feeling desperate and discouraged to thinking about what we should DO. But there is an important missing step when we take action out of desperation.

The way to make the action EASY is to prepare yourself to receive. By this I mean the following:
When you realize you have a situation you don’t want ( feeling lethargic from lack of exercise, for example), the first thing to do is to acknowledge this place you are in. Then, ask yourself how that feels. With that knowledge, you can go on to the important missing step (for most of us). Ask yourself what you want AND why you want it, as well as how you will feel when you get it. Then, allow yourself to feel that, as if it were already accomplished.

With this vital step in place, inspiration will come as to what actions to take.

I feel lazy and tired. (don’t want)
I am unhappy and discouraged with this familiar old place. (feeling)
What I want is to fit exercise into my day, to have it be just a part of who I am and what I do. I want to remember how good it feels to move and to feel excited about all kinds of ways to get my body moving every day. (do want)
I want that because I know that it keeps my head clear and allows me to feel happy and productive. (why )
I can already feel some of that delicious feeling now as I imagine myself clearing the cobwebs away and I feel happy thinking about other times when I have done this. I know I can do this and I am enjoying thinking about how I will increase my energy and stamina. (evolving feelings)
I think I will take a little walk right now. Its raining and it will be fun to feel the drizzle on my face and to watch the clouds changing. (inspiration)

Watch how the inspiration and action flow when you prepare yourself to allow in the changes you are asking for.
