Over the last 5/6 years, I have been deeply involved in this process of gradually letting go of all that hasn’t been working in my life. Piece by piece I have let things go, some of this has been really challenging and some things have been quite small and easy. There is something that has been sitting with me for a few years, one more major thing that feels like it needs letting go for me and that is an aspect of my current work. I have for some time been focusing too much on the negative aspects of this, and knowing that I need to focus more on the positive aspects of what it is I would like to create. I know the Universe loves clarity and I have been giving some mixed messages around what it is I desire right now regarding this topic. So, I am in the process of becoming even more clear around the area of career in my life.
A wonderful friend, Laurie Levine suggested to me today to write my own job description. To write what I truly desire if there was the perfect job advertised for me. As I began it, I realised that I found it a really fun exercise to do, and it also took my mind away from what I am wanting to let go of. It refocused my mind into what I would like to draw into my life and this greatly enhanced my mood.
Focusing on what you do desire, is really helpful in drawing the new into your life. I definitely know this to be true, because I have seen it in so many other areas of my life.
So back to the job description – as I was writing it I realised that I am in fact already on my way there.
Some of my job description desires are blogging/writing on topics that are really close to my heart, like healing from burnout. I also desire to create ebooks and ultimately a book on this topic.
I also have a strong desire to create large online community’s around topics that I love, and this too is happening right here at healing from burnout. Additionally, I would like to help others in this way and build blogging websites or simple websites connected with social media, so that they too can start spreading the message that is close to their heart.
Another thing Laurie reminded me of today was to be grateful for what I already have. I have at times really struggled with this one, especially as over the last few years I have struggled so much physically as I was healing from burnout and trying to do work that felt very draining for me as I was trying to heal my being. I have found it hard to be in a consistent place of gratitude regarding this. I did however, hear another word regarding this which resonated with me, and that was to be at peace with where I was. This came to me via the wonderful work of The Vortex(Abraham-Hicks). Suddenly, this felt so much better for me, it didn’t feel so hard, it felt like it was just being at peace with the journey, and I can still be filled with the knowing that the next steps are already falling into place.
This life is such a journey, and I do know that as we surrender and truly let go of the now and the what is, that it is so much easier to open up to the new and what is next for us.
I am truly grateful for this online community that has grown so rapidly. I am seeing one of my desires come to fruition, something which I feel is one of my reasons for being here on this planet, to help people to heal from burnout and understand it from a spiritual perspective. I certainly didn’t think that my experience would be my message. A few years ago I knew I wanted to start blogging and writing on a spiritual topic, but wasn’t clear on the exact niche, hmmmm, it seems I just had to experience it first!!
When I really get perspective on my life, I see that so much is already falling into place, that there is nothing that needs pushing, that each step is falling into place in the exact right time and that as Louise Hay always states, so profoundly “All is Well”.
And so, I encourage you all to find a place of peace with where you’re at, to practice finding a place of knowing that all is ok with your life. It can be a step by step process to get to this feeling, and doing something that you really enjoy, can be really helpful in taking this knowing deep inside of you.
And how about getting on to your own job description (whether paid or unpaid) and seeing where you’re at with it. Write as if anything in the world was possible for you. You may just surprise yourself at the gems that are already there wanting to emerge.
All my love
Lisa
