Taking Action for Greater Success
When wrestling with your desire for greater success, the best and most spiritual choice you can make is to take action. Regardless of the outcome at first, action stirs, shakes up, and disturbs your status quo.
Begin your action as an explorer. Let discovery be your guide. Imagine that you are exploring the deep jungle of your Soul. To help you decide what you most need to do, you’ll not likely find it without beginning to move into it. So take the first steps whatever you are called to do, and then look for and see what calls to you.
Always keep a good record of your discoveries so you can build a picture of your internal terrain. Moments are important, but unless you see a larger picture you can become lost among the moments.
Finally, be compassionate with yourself. You’ve done what you’ve done in your life for very good reasons. They just don’t apply anymore. Unraveling them will open the way to create new beliefs, new attitudes and the feelings that correspond to them.
For deep and lasting help, our program “Breaking Through Resistance” is one of the best.

I loved this “Let Discovery Be Your Guide.” This has been such an important part of my life. Out of my whole group of friends that I’ve been around for years, I’m the only one who took what some would call an ‘errant’ path.
What’s happened now though is that because of all the actions I’ve taken, most of them ending up in failure, I have such a large tolerance for discomfort that they may never get to experience. I’ve learned so much about who I am - and now I’m coaching my friends to start growing and taking action too.
Thanks you two for a great post!
