Possibilities

What do you believe is possible?? I find that what I want to believe isn't always supported by what I see in the world.? This made me looks at my own thinking patterns and beliefs.? Honestly, it was a little embarrassing!

I have always considered myself to be a glass-half-full type of person.? I am generally able to find something to appreciate regardless of the situation, or so I thought.

Recently, I have been struggling to achieve an aspiration.? I am crystal clear on what I am aiming for and take daily inspired action steps to get me where I want to go.? I found myself staring to doubt my ability and I even began to shrink my vision to something smaller because I could see more clearly how I could go about achieving it.? I just felt like I should be making more headway! ?

Luckily, I came across the concept of "absence of?evidence" before I got too far into shrinking my vision!? Here's the deal.? We cannot know how all of the pieces and parts that need to be in place for us to realize our dreams will actually fall into place.? When I began to doubt the validity of my aspiration, I realized that I was shrinking my view and, in some way. demanding proof that I am on the right path.? In a very cat-like way, I want what I want when I want it.

Perhaps the real work isn't the consistent action steps, although that is extremely important.? It might be that the hardest work is maintaining focus on the path even when we can't see beyond the next step.
