Take-a-Moment.

This is your most powerful moment. In this moment, you have the power to exercise the Divine gift that you have been awarded.  If you are able to release your past experience and refrain from focusing on that which you believe is to come, you are awarded the opportunity to awaken to the present moment.  This is the only reality that truly exists, in the now.  Allow yourself to appreciate and accept it, just as it is right now.  Embrace the fact that you are here to experience it.  Breathe it in.  Notice that as you allow appreciation, an inexplicable peace begins to move throughout your body.  

When you hear the voice in your head begin to chatter, realize that your awareness of it means that the voice is not your own.  You are not deciding what you are about to think; yet, you are thinking.  Your ability to separate yourself from your thought frees you from the misconception that you and your thoughts are one. Thoughts often happen, absent invitation or obvious provocation.  Beneath that layer of illusion is your true self, your source of strength, creativity, and power. 

Take a moment (it need not be a long period of time) to stop. In a quiet place, take note of your breathing.  Begin with a deep breath and then allow your breath to steady, returning to its customary rhythm.  Feel the peace that begins to encompass your body.  Your breath is powerful and this level of peace is simply a breath or two away!

Success or sabotage?  If you wish to succeed (not just in goals, but in life), it is imperative that you are fully conscious of the power that is contained within you.

Is this going to be an incredible day?  It is not the day that has the answer. It is you. It has always been you.
