The Time Is Now!

Now is the plan, plain and simple. No time to waste. Now is a theme that runs deep into most of our lives. If we took this attitude and approached each day as if there was no time to waste, our lives would probably be very different. And since the macro mirrors the micro, our relationships, our communities, our government, and our world would be very different. I am not suggesting here that we become obsessive compulsive, workaholics, eliminate our still time or taking care of ourselves, or not be present. What I am saying is it's time to stop the excuses, stop the languaging we use on ourselves, like, I will do this when this or that happens. The present moment is all we have. There are no other guarantees! What is important to you? If you are not engaging yourself in what is important to you then stop and reassess the way you live your life. Prioritize what is important, or what you need to do to participate in what is important to you. I can feel the resistance already. If you are resisting then take a look at what you are resisting. Observe your rationalizations, and decide if you'd rather be right in justification or happy. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting each time a different result. Are you playing the DVD Groundhog Day in your own mind? Let me tell you this from my own experience and that of my patients, there will always be something! It's the nature of the ego and our defenses. The stuff doesn't just clear itself out and leave a block of space for us to live our passions. We have to clear the space ourselves. Nobody will do it for us. There is no magic formula. However, there is "The Secret." There is great stuff from James Ray International (www.jamesray.com). There is "The Way Of Mastery" (www.shantichristo.com). There is "Empowerment: The Art Of Creating Your Life As You Want It" by David Gershon & Gail Straub and "The Attractor Factor" by Joe Vitale. Which do you want first, the good news or the bad news? Okay here's the good news. All of these resources can radically change your life and start you on the road to happiness and abundance in all areas of your life. Now for the bad news. These things do not work by themselves. It requires commitment and doing things in our lives qualitatively different! What is important to you? What are you prioritizing right now as we speak? This is not to feel guilty or shameful, but to just observe and get clear on what is. People that are successful in all areas of their lives do things differently than the general population. They don't do more of "it", they experience thinking, feeling, and taking action qualitatively differently than most of us. That's why I'm listening to them and applying these principles in my life. The time is now! Take responsibility for your own life. Model that to others. If you do it will inspire them to change. It also is what motivates the world to change. So whatever you are unhappy about, think about what makes you happy and start moving towards it. Remember, all you have is now. You may be surprised how special and sacred the now is when you experience it. So, what ever your passion is in life, whatever it is you want to change, now is the time! You may be surprised how much wasted time can be cut out of your life and freed up to move toward the things you love. Remember, this is not about doing more and more, and making list after list, and getting more tasks done. This is about taking committed action and tapping into your greatness. This is about being the Gods and Goddesses that we all are. This is about allowing our light to shine brightly. This is about letting go of old beliefs and ways of doing things and experiencing something totally different. The ironic part about all of this is that when you start being in your greatness and follow your heart, you might just get a lot more done with a fraction of the effort. You may also start to have happy attacks and engage in fun, laughter, and passion. Peace can also be a symptom of the happiness bug. It's time to make a difference in yourself. So, I ask you one more time, what is really important to you and what time is it? THE TIME IS NOW!
