Today's
Meditation:
It's
so easy to forget to celebrate ourselves. After all,
there are so many things that we do wrong, that we could
do better, that we could do more effectively. . . . it's
extremely easy to criticize ourselves and our lack of
power in a world that seems to want us to feel powerless,
but the truth of the matter is that we have lots of power,
and we do have the ability to do whatever is necessary to
get done whatever we need to.
But
we do have to be in the right state of mind if we're going
to see that power put to good use. We do have to
make the decision to give ourselves credit for having the
power in the first place, and we do have to celebrate that
power and our abilities. That very celebration,
those very feelings, can be what propel us into a new set
of behaviors, a new way of being, a mindset that keeps us
doing things that are important to us--and doing them
successfully, all the time.
You
do have plenty of power as a human being, as a child of
God, as a living spirit here on this planet with millions
of other living spirits. But that power will lie
latent unless and until you're willing to acknowledge it,
accept it, and celebrate its presence in your life.
It's
always our choice as to which state of mind we prefer to
stay in. Some of our states of mind limit us and
keep us from achieving our full potential. Other
states of mind make celebration of our own power a natural
part of who we are.
