Awakening Just Keeps Happening

Today I really did it. By the time I’m done writing this blog entry, I will have spent 3 hours on work, only items that work toward our goals financially or business-wise count. First I made a plan of what needed to happen during my work at home time. Then I tried to do the hardest things first. Making phone calls is my hardest thing, but I did make 3 today. Then I did some study & writing, did some email and computer work, and a few other things. Okay so it wasn’t super productive, but I did my best. And I will again. And if I continue putting forth the effort into these projects, I will succeed. Things will start to happen. I do believe that now. So with my faith firmly in place, I go forward.
How does this all apply to awakening? For me to realize that the things I do matter, they can make a difference, just breakthrough and do the hard stuff, do any action, don’t let myself be paralyzed, don’t let myself be distracted, “doing” all of this stuff is huge for me. It’s making me a more present and awake person It’s solidifying for me that movement, action coupled with a faith that the little things will add up and that Divine providence will step in and make things happen that I couldn’t have predicted. This is my awakening. Because awakening just keeps happening if we let it. If we take a look at ourselves and our results, what needs to change? It is always us. We are the only ones that we can affect. Our lives are the way they are because of what we’ve got down and because of what we are still working on. I have found this true in my life. So I will just keep doing something, the best somethings I can come up with, and look forward with anticipation to the beauties that lie ahead. ~Julie
