Expect the best

As you experience stages of this journey called 'life,' you always have choices about how to respond to what you imagine is unfolding. Whether you expect the best or fear the worst, the mind invites you to imagine and create scenarios to reinforce your thoughts.

Take a few moments to ask some questions. Notice how you respond to people and events in your current focus of attention. What are the reactions of people in your life inviting you to notice about yourself? How is every event gently nudging you away from what you outgrow and toward what is dear to the heart? Which signs do you hear or ignore?

As you recall more details of your night dreams, notice what they reveal about your waking life. Everything is a message. Which lessons are you invited to recognize? How do you feel about them? What role do perceptions play in shaping your experience? What happens as you sense your current situation is actually a blessing in disguise?

From the moment you focus your thoughts and attention on how everything is serving your greater good, you also transform how and what you allow yourself to see.

"The best things in life are unexpected- because there were no expectations." -Eli Khamarov

Hi Liara .. being able to release worry has made a big difference; and I've just accepted that I have done and am doing the best for my mother - taking 'the pressure' off; this has allowed me to clarify my life and evaluate my plans for the future without the anxiety and worry of not achieving ... I can sort, prepare and be ready as things unfold. So I do expect the best - always have, just occasionally allow uncertainty sweep around - natural to a point, but now I'm even more preparing for the future, but at peace. Cheers Hilary

Hilary, knowing you have a choice about how to think and feel is always very empowering. To let go of expectations allows you to appreciate all that unfolds.
