Goodness you can create

The way forward is to focus on what you can do. Dedicate yourself to the good things that matter most to you.

Self pity is not an effective strategy. Anger, resentment, envy, retribution, none provide any chance of creating value.

Your best option is commitment to a meaningful and significant objective. All kinds of good results become possible when you activate the power of your intention.

It’s beside the point that life has been unfair and unreasonable, and will continue to be. What counts is that you can do something positive with whatever situation confronts you.

It’s great when you receive recognition, encouragement, and affirmation for who you are and what you’re doing. But even in the absence of those, you can make the choice to follow a path every day that you know is right for you.

Give your time and energy to what matters, and act to make the kind of difference you wish to see. Focus on bringing to life to goodness that you are here to create.

Desirable destination

How do you energize yourself in the present? Take action that’s oriented toward improving the future.

How do you sustain that elevated energy level? Continue focusing and acting to create a better future.

Without the vision of a positive future, it’s difficult to get yourself to do anything. But when you’re immersed in the very real possibilities and in bringing them to life, you can develop unstoppable momentum.

You don’t ever have to be stuck where you are. Because you can always be working and living in the service of your vision for the future.

What’s even better is, there’s no limit to what that vision can be. So you’re free to craft the specific vision that’s most compelling to you.

To successfully move forward, first clearly look forward and see all the details of where you most want to go. Create a powerful, desirable destination and you’ll have more than enough of what it takes to get there.

Seek clarity

In realms of confusion much becomes hidden, intentionally and not. Clarity, on the other hand, strips away deception, forcing truth and reason to the forefront.

When your purpose is clear, you make real and rapid progress. When your aims are clear, when your values unambiguous, enduring goodness springs to life.

It can be all too tempting and easy to obscure what you think, and say, and do. But that just keeps you stuck where you are, or worse.

Challenge yourself into clarity. Specifically what do you want, specifically why, to what real, detailed, meaningful end?

Abstractions have their place. Yet you must live and breathe and thrive in the real world, constrained and supported by hard, fast truths.

From yourself, from others, seek clarity, and offer clarity. Break through the noise, the deception, the confusion, and live true to your miraculous reality.
