Recently I was driving home from a class. It was night time and it was dark outside. It was on of those very quiet nights where you feel like you are the only person on the road. I had the radio off and was just enjoying the peace and quiet. Then I heard the following…

Isn’t it funny how when you drive at night you can only see a short distance in front of you (just a few hundred feet!). You can not see your destination from your starting point. You don’t go…oh I am not getting in that car because I can not see all the way to my destination! NO! You get in the car and you drive. You are fine with the fact that you can only see a few feet in front of you. You don’t even think about it. Yet in life we all “think” we need to see the entire path to our destination! Maybe you need to approach change the same way you do driving at night! Maybe you need to trust and know that you will arrive at your destination without needing to see the entire journey laid out in front of you. Maybe you need to just always be in forward motion being okay with just taking one step at a time and only seeing what you need to see in the moment!

WOW I had honestly never even thought about that but it made perfect sense. How many times have you avoided making a change or moving forward because you couldn’t clearly see how it was all suppose to unfold? BE HONEST….I know I have done that a lot! Yes, I need to make the change but a written guarantee of success and a road map to get there would be nice:)

We have to remember, that contrary to what people think, this life is not about punishment for past sins and learning horrible lessons when you make a bad choice. This life is about having experiences. Some good and some bad but at the end of the day they all advance your souls experience. That is why your soul came down here…to have experiences. Wouldn’t life be so much easier if we all just lived in the moment. If we all had the courage to follow our dreams. Could you imagine just truly letting go and taking that leap of faith?

Everyday I do readings for people who like to negotiate with the Universe (I laugh cause I did it too for many years). Ya know you say things like, YEAPH I will leave my horrible job as soon as the Universe gives me a much better job! Another favorite of mine…..yes I am absolutely miserable in my relationship but I can’t leave until I find someone else. Imagine if you just made the change. Imagine if you just took the “driving at night approach”. It would look like this. Well I am miserable at my job so for now I am just going to find something that will get me out of there. It may not be my dream job but it will be the next step. I will have faith and know I will arrive at my final destination even though right now I can’t see how. I will take it one step at a time! Doesn’t that look better than….ugh I am going to be at this miserable job for the rest of my life because I have no choices and no one is coming and offering me my dream job.

I get so many emails each month from those of you who have followed me through my many sagas and have seen how I have completely changed and transformed my life. I am so grateful and appreciative of each and every one of you who writes. And I tell you all the same thing….it is not about being lucky or blessed…it is simply about feeling deserving of having what you truly desire, having the courage to let go of what is not working and being willing to move forward even when you can only see a few hundred feet ahead of you!
