Step 17: How Do I Get What I Want

Welcome to step 17 of this 21 step course.

When you act from your unique core, you feel energetic, like a river is moving inside you. Trust that river and trust yourself to immerse completely in its force. Do the things that make you come alive every day of your life. Have the courage to unwrap, explore and experiment with the hidden cache of possibilities within you. Keep connecting with the excitement that brings. Outwardly you may have moulded yourself skillfully, around others' desires. People may like you and inwardly you may not like yourself. Take a deep breath, begin to unwrap false definitions of you, connect with your depths.

Recall past events where there was loss, despair, struggle and regret. Acknowledge your lessons of compassion, kindness, gentleness and humour. On this course, you are consciously cultivating qualities that are lying in deeper waters - acceptance, contentment, persistence and self love. Open your eyes and see your unique mixture of wonderful qualities! Why would you have been made so unique if not to create something with it? There is no one else who has your laugh and there is no one else who has your smile. You are more important to the people in your life than you may ever realise. They are holding the space for your uniqueness to emerge. Your unique self is your contribution to the world. Be, unmistakably unique and thrill yourself to the core.

In a few day in Step 18, we'll be exploring the subtle power of patience.
