As you walk this journey, you will come up against challenges, difficulties, and times when you want to turn back. Part of this is simply life, although your perspective has a lot to do with your experience. You can always choose to see your challenges, problems as difficulties simply as Situations Which Require Your Attention,…

[Monday Message] Be Great
Every human being has the potential for greatness. Be great. You are a child of God, a spark of the Divine, a co-creator of the Universe. Who are you not to be great? What makes you think you aren’t great? Let’s make sure you are in acceptance of who you are and aren’t suffering from…
[Monday Message] Experiential Learning
Behavioral science has shown that experiential understanding is the best way for us to grasp a concept. Theoretical learning that is not applied is not fully understood. We learn by doing, by experiencing, and by teaching others. We are interactive beings. From Spirit’s point of view, without the third-dimensional experience of being here, we would…
[Monday Message] Feeling Successful
How you define success for yourself? Most people don’t actually know. They know what society tells them is success, what it will take for their friends and family to consider them successful, but they have no idea what will make them feel successful. Which is why so few people feel fulfilled. Something happened at the…
[Monday Message] Moving Through Grief
Each of us grieves things on a daily basis. Grief is a natural reaction to endings. We grieve the end of chapters in our lives as well as the end of volumes. Endings are as inevitable as beginnings. Change is the only constant. It is right and good to mourn what has left. It is…
[Monday Message] Regaining Personal Power
Dale Carnegie once said “Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment.” These are the things that sap our personal power. All three are a form of avoidance of being in the moment. The overarching dilemma of life in today’s world is a disconnect from our power. The imbalance…
[Monday Message] The Habit of Distraction
It is part of the human condition to fall victim to the habit of distraction. It is part of spiritual evolution to guard against that. A Tibetan story tells of a meditation student who, while meditating in his room, believed he saw a spider descending in front of him. Each day the menacing creature returned,…
[Monday Message] Stand for Something
“We are trying to show him not only what we are fighting against, but what we are fighting for. So many of these boys have only a very hazy idea of the real issues of the war. About all they see is ‘going back to the good old days.’ This is a dangerous state. If…
[Monday Message] Breaking through indecision
I talk about the Negative Ego a lot, because it is part of what defines our entire experience on this plane of existence. The Negative Ego generates fear, it creates indecision, it brings up control issues, and it confuses us with the illusion of lack. It all goes back to the chimera that the Divine…
[Monday Message] You Are Responsible to the Greater Good
You are responsible. It is part of your job, as a human being, to be conscious in word and deed. Be conscious of what is going on around you and speak up when injustice happens, while understanding that your value system may not be shared by everyone; honor people’s agency and let them tell you…
[Monday Message] Do Not Sit Idly By
Far too often, we teach children that sitting still is the definition of being good. This translates, in our adult lives, into not interfering when interference is called for. Whether your personal boundaries are being violated or someone is doing something out in the world that is patently wrong, speaking up is the right thing…
[Monday Message] Teamwork
Teamwork is the foundation of everything. The idea of an independent human being is a myth. The very fact that you exist means you had parents, unless you were created in a lab, by a team of scientists. You were not spontaneously manifested into existence by nothing. Except… You kind of were, when you get…
