Do One Thing That Scares You

Just because you are afraid does not mean you are not ready to take the next step toward achieving your goals.  Fear is simply a signal that what you are pursuing is outside of your current comfort zone.  In this case, fear is an automatic response–pointing out that you are approaching the barrier of your “circle of safety.”

Breaking through it is not the difficult part.  The greatest challenge is in continuing toward it in the face of fear, taking action in spite of it.

What elicits fear in you today?

Continue on, courageous souls, and you will understand the power of transforming fear into growth.

“Do one thing every day that scares you.” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

Life as a Spiritual Path

by Mindie Kniss

Life is a spiritual path.  You may have heard people describing how they began their spiritual path, or found a spiritual path, but in reality, they’ve been on that path all along.

You cannot be on any other path except that of spirit, for, as Pierre Teilhard de Chardin noted, “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.”

Who is more spiritual?  A devoted monk or a successful businesswoman?  A member of the clergy or a wilderness teacher?  ”Spiritual” is not something you do, it is something you are.  And we are all spiritual beings, regardless of the occupation in which we work or the belief system we’ve chosen.  We are always on a spiritual path.

Circle of Potential

“Most people live in a very restricted circle of their potential being.  They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness and of their soul’s resources in general.  Much like a man who, out of his whole bodily organism, should get into the habit of using and moving only his little finger.”  ~  William James
