Invent your future

A Thought for the Week

"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now." ~ Unknown

"Decision changes everything." ~ Douglas Verneeren

"The best way to predict your future is to invent it. It's up to you." ~ Frank Maguire

Apologies for being so late this week - I was experiencing severe technical issues!

Hi, Hilda!

With regard to that first quote, that's truly how I've been feeling - in my core - for the past six weeks or so. It's a concept I studied and have known well, but haven't always been able to live. I let myself relax into the idea over Christmas and throughout January, and my GOSH, the results have been fantastic! I feel absolutely content with my life in nearly every way. Things feel effortless, and more magical... And it came from simply accepting that everything that happens is perfect and necessary.

Much love & joy to you!

I truly believe that we are always where we are meant to be at any given time. Whenever anything happens that is unexpected or 'not in the plan' we need to realise that it is as it is meant to be. This gives a feeling of total comfort and removes any stress associated with it immediately :)

Thanks for that quote Ryhen, I really like it!

Megan, I think that's a powerful quote and wish I knew who to attribute it too! I too have been relaxing more into "it's all happening perfectly" mode the last couple of weeks, having been getting a little too caught up in conventional expectations in the run-up to Christmas. I'm so glad to coming back to this space now :-) Much love and joy to you too!!

Amen Beverly, I'm totally with you! In fact, my next post is on that subject - and was inspired by Megan's post! Stay tuned...

Be open to magic and miracles A Thought for the Week photo by Sandy Austen "Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen." ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe "You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It's just a matter of paying attention to this miracle." ~ Paolo Coelho "One way can be learned by starting to see the magic in everything. Sometimes it seems to be hiding but it is always there. The more we can see the magic in...

Rambling through life A comment about rambling on Megan's post about authenticity and redefinition deeply resonated with me. I realised "rambling" is exactly what I've been doing the last few years. And it's been an absolute joy! I know it's not the modern Western way, but I don't have much of a plan for my life! When I was a practicing life coach, I was great at setting myself clear goals - and encouraged clients and friends to do likewise! But whenever I set myself a plan of action, I often found it turning into a mountain of "shoulds". And "shoulds" drain my...
