Creating Your Life

I am a firm believer of the power of making your intentions become your reality. I have a strong sense that when you act and believe that your life is going to unfold in a certain direction ... it will.

I have so many personal testimonies that all seem to stem from one central theme. I believed it. And it came true. I haven't had a fairy godmother waving her magic wand, but I've certainly seen a lot of wishes come true.

Unfortunately, my beliefs also came true when I believed that I was unworthy. Trust me. If you believe that you don't deserve something, that is exactly what you will get. I have built relationships on that belief system and they weren't healthy. It's amazing how easy it is to attract someone who will agree with the fact that you are less than you are.

More fortunate for me, is the fact that underneath the insecurities I had self esteem. I would only sink so low, before I started coming up for air. I saved myself before I drowned.

The most amazing thing of all, is the small miracles that unfold on a regular basis. Walking through life with the belief that no matter what life throws your way, you'll find a nugget of gold within the chaos. Something of value to hold onto, no matter what you encounter.

I have set goals for myself at school. I believe that I am attaining them because I think I can. My little family is growing stronger every day. I pictured this day and I'm envisioning a future that builds upon what we have. I have a 'vision' of the person that I want to be and with every step I take, I come a little closer. I have some dreams that I just can't let go of. I believe that they can and will happen. One step at a time (and I can even envision those first steps).

My Second Son is stepping towards a future that he believes will happen. He is starting up his own business. A business that he knows well. A business where he has many contacts who know his work and reputation. He is taking a step forward with the knowledge that he can make this work. He sees the big picture and focuses on it. He made the decision within himself, made an open declaration of where he was headed ... and then he did it. Every move he has made since he made the decision within himself is moving him in the direction he plans to go. I believe he will succeed ... because he believes.

My Firstborn Son is also taking steps towards the future he wants to build. He also has a vision. A dream. His foundation has been recently shaken, so his steps are a little more tentative. But he's taking them. Testing the waters, investigating, thinking and daring to dream again. I believe he will also succeed in attaining his goals. The only thing stopping him is his inner conviction. If he believes in himself and takes every step with the belief that it is a step in the direction he wants to head ... he will get to where he is going.

Acting as if you have already received what you desire is a foundation of 'The Secret'. I have lived 'a life of intent' for quite some time now. The past few years have been a testament to my belief in this way of thinking. I have looked forward. I've believed, envisioned and felt the life that I wanted to live. And I'm living it.

I read this blog: "Ten Years Ago Today" (click on the title to read it) a few days ago and it is yet another testimony to the my belief that 'you get what you believe you deserve' in life.

"If you build it ... they will come" ~ from 'A Field of Dreams'

This echos within my subconscious mind. If you believe ... it will happen. Believe in yourself. You simply can't lose by believing in your own self worth. And it only gets better from there.
