Let go of the old and make room for the new

Let go of what you do not want and bring into your life what you do want. In this way you create the reality you desire. Let go of that which no longer serves you and replace it with what you want.

First put your focus on the positive act of releasing, then put your focus on replenishing and revitalizing your energy for what you want to create in your life. You are creating an opportunity for a new life force through the act of releasing. You are enabling yourself to have more energy available for what you want in life when you release that which you no longer need or desire. Let go of the old and make room for the new.

The life changing aspect of this does not come from grand sweeping changes, but incremental daily shifts of awareness that allow you to focus your energy in a desired direction.

Live Your Truth

You have an opportunity to live your truth. Not the agenda that someone else has for you, but your truth.

Before you can live the truth you have to tell the truth. And the first person to whom you must tell the truth is yourself. Maybe it begins as a whisper, a response to that tiny voice inside that nudges you when you are not living your truth. Living your truth begins with telling the truth. Telling the truth in a civilization of deceit is truly a revolutionary act. Committing yourself to telling the truth can change your life, rock your world, and transform who you are.

Teach your children to tell the truth as well. You teach them by modeling the truth, both in word and action. You teach them to tell the truth by validating and encouraging them when they do tell the truth. You teach them by gently requiring them to tell the truth, without a big lecture or dramatic demand. Rather use a firm and gentle voice requiring the truth and most importantly, let them see you tell the truth always.
