“Taking responsibility is a huge task… Even if we feel hurt or ashamed by something that happens, we can find peace in the knowledge that somehow it’s helping each of us to fulfill our dreams or direct our soul’s journey. We can look at ourselves and say, “the world is my canvas and I drew this event into my life to teach myself a valuable lesson.” We become accountable for everything that happens. We say to the universe, “I am the source of my own reality.” This is the place of power from which you can alter your life.

Did you catch that last bit? Make note of it. Transformation begins with awareness and the desire for change.
It can be helpful to understand how you might have created what you’re experiencing, but it’s really not necessary. What you most need to do is decide what you want to experience and shift your energy, attention, thoughts, and beliefs into alignment with that. Imagine that new reality and make it your primary focus.
Now, you can’t just think your way there, you have to feel your way there. So let your heart be your guide. When your heart’s in the lead, your thoughts and actions will follow in suit.
Do it now, my friend. Start creating your new reality. You deserve it!
