Making the decision to dream big can be a scary endeavor for many people, and yet it’s the exercise that leads us to living a life we absolutely love.
What if we gave ourselves permission to dream beyond our current reality? Where could these thoughts take us?
Taking these three steps can help you begin building your dream life.
Step 1: Honor your discontent
Discontent is an important signal from our soul that something bigger is seeking to emerge through us. Give yourself permission to enter and explore the realm of your deep desires.
Harness this discontent by letting the dream begin to live in your mind and heart as a true possibility. Notice your body and your emotions. Does the feeling of desire heighten and your sense of aliveness? An expanded feeling of aliveness is an important indicator that you are on the right path.
Step 2: Practice repeating “Up until now…”
Think of your words as a command to the Universe. When you say things like “Its just so hard to…or “Its a struggle…” or “I can’t do that because…” To interrupt this energetic pattern say “up until now…” This will keep thoughts of your past experience from limiting your possible futures.
If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get the results you’ve always gotten. Pause for a moment. You’ll hear the old chatter that dictates every reason for not taking a risk. Listen, then pause. All these negative experiences and disappointments may have been true in the past. Now is the time to shrug them off.
Depok Chopra suggests to not take the negative chatter and thoughts as your own they are the mass consciousness and to practice deleting them and replacing with a life giving solution or thought.
Your history does not determine your destiny. All your disappointments and regrets belong to a time that is ending at this moment. In the next moment, let out your yearnings in a first roar of awakening. This is a roar of triumph.
Step 3: Consciously co-create with the Infinite Universe, Spirit, God. Whatever higher power you are connected to and the impossible becomes possible.
Co-creation means you partner with Spirit to build the greatest life you can live. When you recognize yourself as a co-creator, you ask for guidance and break through the self-imposed barriers that have stood between yourself and your desires.
“Live life as if everything is rigged in your favor.” ~Rumi
Begin each new day thanking the Universe and concentrating on a desire of yours that you previously believed was out of reach. Just for that day, act as if what you wanted was possible. Then see what transforms.
Here’s to your BEST LIFE!
