Live Life On Your Own Terms:
Fulfill The Purpose Of Your Success By BOB LANCER PART 2 To receive the guidance of your true self, your heart (your emotional space) and mind (your mental space) need to be like still ponds that clearly reflect the heavens. This establishes your consciousness on the necessary foundation of peace for seeing and knowing what it is that is truly yours to do in any given instant. Practice handling all of the day's small upsets and victories with as much natural, relaxed balance, equanimity, poise as possible. This gradually builds your inner mastery for following real wisdom when more severe challenges hit, which they inevitably will. Your body needs to be relaxed, rested, vibrant and healthy for your consciousness to work with its finest attunement possible. Thus, get plenty of rest. Practice remaining physically relaxed and tension free as consistently as possible. Get enough exercise. Eat well. Waste no energy on unnecessary thought, emotion, speech or action. Look for the most efficient ways of doing everything and take the breaks you need to avoid slipping into stress and fatigue. Without a physically healthy, balanced life-style, the inner light and the life that are truly right for begin slipping away. But you do not have to be an absolute master to find and follow the wisdom and understanding that leads you along the path of your true will. That inner light dawns gradually, by degrees. As you follow the light you receive, you naturally find yourself moving in the direction of mental clarity, emotional peace, physical relaxation and vibrant health. With the light comes the power and inspiration to fulfill its guidance. You will be guided to give and guided to withhold from giving, guided to ease up and guided to step up your level of effort, guided to admit and guided to reject, guided to let loose and guided to restrain, guided to allow and guided to refuse, all in just the right measure, as you follow the light of inner wisdom and self-understanding. There is a certain mathematics to the light. Emotions and desire flare with inspirational power when your true self or soul receives the nourishment of its fulfillment. This occurs when you encounter an individual in harmony with your true self, particularly one far advanced in the kind of life and work that mean the most to you. You feel encouraged, determined, excited, fired up, impassioned by the glimmer of the fulfillment of your true, sacred destiny. But, as has been alluded, emotion and desire are like powerful winds that can drive and uproot you from your true way by producing a thick cloud of inner confusion that blinds your inner vision. You need to be stably rooted in the core of your very being so that you can remain steadfast and not lose yourself in the rough seas of unbalanced desire and emotion. Strong emotion and desire generate superficial guidance in the form of deep belief masquerading as truth. They convince you of what you need to do or to have without any connection to, and often in diametric conflict with, your real core-needs for true success and fulfillment.
