Awaken to Purpose.

Are you awake? I am referring to a definition that exceeds "eyes open and conscious." Are you clear as to how this day fits within your goals, dreams and intentions? If you are not awakening to a clear sense of purpose and intention, you are sabotaging the true potential of your life.  It is easy to postpone the "work" until tomorrow but, by doing so, you may be cheating your self out of unexplored joy and miracles.

An assumption of western culture may lead you to believe that the "work" is defined by doing and tasks. The truth is that much of the necessary work is centered on intention and consciousness. A large part of the success equation that is often ignored is who you are in relation to your goals. You are the being through which success will emanate, so your state of being is integral to the level of success that you will achieve.

You have been awarded the privilege of life, full of unlimited potential. If you can point to nothing else at this moment, you can appreciate the fact that you are breathing, sighted and able to read. The day that stands before you is yours to create as you wish. You cannot control the outcomes, but you can command how you spend the day and how you react to the circumstances that unfold. Who do you want to be?

Success or sabotage? Invest your energy as you invest your money; spend where you will get a favorable return.

Is this going to be an incredible day?  How are you going to spend your time to see that it is so?
