Blog Entry 118 of 121 Unity of Life
All life is connected. To act consistent with this fact we need to see the world differently. This blog provides a forum to share how we see the world as one whole. It's where we challenge ourselves to find common ground solutions from everything from foreign policy, to health care to what's to be done with Hwy 118.

Starting Out

Starting Out

When we start out on a new venture, or a new part of an old venture, we don't really know what personal obstacles we will encounter. It's a bit like entering a foreign land where we don't' know the rules or the landscape.

To gain our footing we need to focus on that which never changes; that which is always present in everything; the basic principles of existence. Focus on the goal with the knowledge that what we focus on grows in our life. Hold the goal in mind and if inspiration comes, act on it. If it doesn't come, keep holding the goal in mind.

You can see why the ability to direct our mind is critical to achieving any outcome. Only by strengthening our ability to consciously direct our attention can we have an increasing ability to make our lives into what we want.

We owe it to ourselves to be discerning in our choice of which road to travel, what goals we have in life, where we will focus our attention and talents. We don't want to end up having gone two steps in a thousand different directions. We want to pick a direction and objective we are deeply committed to; one that we will stick with when the going gets tough; one we will be glad we choose at the end of our life. I've chosen the complete alignment with the truth of who I am as my goal. Thirty years later, I'm very happy with my choice.
