Take personal Responsibility.

Do you want to live or do you want to exist? The world is filled with those who have sacrificed their dreams and desires for a life of victimhood and complacency.  They have concluded on some level that the pain and discomfort of the reactionary life are simpler than the road of responsibility and reward.  Their assumption may be correct. 

The reward of personal responsibility and "right livelihood" is that you can indeed have everything that you want.  There is, however, a cost.  You must be willing to surrender your fears and expectations and sacrifice any beliefs and actions that support victimization. You must accept and acknowledge that your life is your own creation.  You must work to elevate your consciousness and clarity and take responsibility for your thoughts, words, and actions.  Greatness requires a great deal of work. It is not work in the way that we have become accustomed.  It is not task oriented or even income generating (at first).  It requires the discipline of self-examination, acceptance, and soul-searching. It is a road filled with many detours, uncertainties, and ultimately many riches.

The blueprint for success--the success that is aligned with your soul and being--is within you. You already know the way. You have to be willing to get out of the way. What is it that you are not doing? How are you standing in the way? You know the answer; are you willing to admit it? Are you willing to put yourself first and take action TODAY? We can all come up with a host of valid reasons for why it should be tomorrow or perhaps next week.  Do I need to remind you that your life is waiting?

Success or sabotage?  Are you taking responsibility for your success? Do you want it enough to take the necessary action?

Is this going to be an incredible day?  There is a responsibility for any creation; the day is yours for the unfolding.
