Success in life is not about striving for goals,

but aligning with and tuning into

your Divine Life Plan.

As I see it, if you have doubts, fears or dilemmas about a way forward in your life then here’s a fail-safe way to throw light on the subject. This will lead to clarity as an intuitive nudge that lights up the way forward.

I thought about this last night as I was listening to a close friend sharing his concerns and options with regard to work and life. In the past I would have tried to “give advice” and steer him in a particular direction or ease his inner conflict.

Life and my own experience going from what I call “mess to success” has taught me differently.

Everything I write and teach now starts by clearing the blocks to reconnecting with Source, Soul or Divine Life Plan or Purpose. I have proven for myself and others that once you get clean and clear – miracles follow. And I know that each of us has a unique soul journey of growth and happiness. As long as we feel good in our own skin and aligned with Source, then the challenges merely become a way of triggering what Abraham-Hicks calls “rockets of desire” to expand our life and bring our highest good.

Let me share with you a prayer or declaration which has been a compass in my own life when the way forward seemed dark and murky. It comes from 1940s metaphysical teacher and author Florence Scovel-Shinn from her classic book: “The Game of Life and How to Play it”.

“Infinite Spirit, open the way for the Divine Design of my life to manifest; let the genius within me be released; let me see clearly the perfect plan.”

You could also say this to Source, the Universe, your Higher Power – all names for something bigger than your personality or ego Self.

Once you “say the word” or make the declaration” follow up by giving thanks that it is “already so”. After that, simply expect and await a nudge or insight for the right action or next best action step. It can come from a chance remark, a passage you open randomly in a book or an intuitive flash.
The important thing says Shinn is to “speak the word and then don’t do anything until you get a definite lead”.

The result – you feel good, authentic

and in the flow or swing of

well being and happiness.

Both “sales champion” Tom Hopkins and the best-selling author of Wishcraft Barbara Sher, who I met in New York at a life-changing workshop years ago, say there is no such thing as “laziness” or “procrastination”. Instead it is about … BEING IN CONFLICT WITH YOURSELF.

“Why don’t you want to do what you know you should do? The reason you don’t is that you’re in conflict with yourself,” says Hopkins.

Over the years I have discovered many ways to clean and clear this “stuckness” – and one of the fastest and most effective methods is “tapping” – as in Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) – which I explain more in my book and e-coaching course.

Recently I met Joe Vitale and hearing him talk about “awakening” at the Miracles Weekend in San Diego (2008) led me to experiment more with clearing my inner blocks with the Self I-Dentity Ho’oponopono technique of saying: ‘I ‘m sorry, Please forgive me, I love you, Thank you” – all explained in detail in the book Zero Limits by Joe Vitale and Ihaleakala Hew Len.

The main result is that you move out of the VICTIM mentality, take full responsibility for everything in your life and, best of all, begin to live from inspired action – rather than goal-driven intention setting, which can be great, but sometimes becomes frustrating as you attempt to “row upstream” in pursuit of your dreams.
