To Thyself Be True--Shakespeare

If you are not true to yourself, than who ARE you true to?

The purpose of life is to be happy and to experience all that you can
experience.

Are you happy?

Are you experiencing all that you can experience?

You cannot be happy if you are working everyday on a job that does not
make you happy.

You are NOT being true to yourself.

If I were a betting woman, I would be willing to bet that there is
something, right now, that you are yearning to do. There is something
screaming inside of you that can’t wait to be brought out so that it can
experience joy 24/7. It knows that once it is released, your life will
be wonderful.

But you aren’t listening.

Oh, you hear it. Every once in a while, you entertain it and allow it to
stir something up inside of you, but you quickly extinguish the fire.

You aren’t allowing yourself to be true to you.

By holding back your passions, you are stifling your growth.

Listen--if you are true to yourself and allow your passions to come out
and live your life doing something you are passionate about, you will
find that money will never be an object of desire again--because you
will have it in great abundance.

Why? Because life is to be fun and enjoyed so that you can experience
all that you can experience. You can’t experience much with no money,
now can ya?

How can you experience ALL THAT IS if you don’t have the funds available
to even fill up your gas tank—or better yet, don’t own a car? Where are
you going to go? What are you going to experience? There are some people
who have never been outside of the town that they were born in. How can
you experience ALL THAT IS when you are 25 years old and have never been
out of the town you were born in? You can’t.

What is holding you back?

Why aren’t you allowing your true self to come forward?

9 times out of 10 the reason is -- FEAR.

We allow fear to hold us back in so many ways.

You fear that if you quit your job, you won’t be able to pay your bills.

You fear that if you are true to yourself and do the one thing that you
are most passionate about, you might fail.

You fear that you may never be able to own your dream home.

You fear that you will be alone and lonely.

You fear all kinds of things.

But why are you fearful?

Do you believe in God?

I mean do you REALLY believe in God?

If you believed in God you would know that there is NOTHING to fear.

2 Timothy 1:7 states “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but
of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

Since fear doesn’t come from God, than how is it that you have so much
fear?

Fear is F.E.A.R. or False Evidence Appearing Real.

There is no evidence that if you are true to yourself and live your
passions, that you will be unable to pay your bills. It’s just something
that you have created in your mind. How do you know this to be true?
You’ve never given it a try. It’s false evidence.

If you actually take the time and break down all of the things you fear;
things that are stopping you from being true to yourself, you will see
that it is ALL false evidence.

We have the tendency to create all kinds of negative situations in our
imagination. And because our imaginations are our creating tools, the
fear that we have imagined becomes true. But, if we believe God and
believe his words, than we know that there is nothing to fear-EVER.
Because God is with us at all times and all we need to do is call upon
Him.

ACTION POINT: From this day forward—be true to yourself. I don’t care
what the circumstance may be—be true to yourself. If it is something
that makes you feel uncomfortable, don’t do it. If you have a passion
that is yearning to be released, release it. Do whatever feels good to
your soul. It if feels good to your soul, than it’s the right thing to
do. Because your soul is directly linked to God and God is ALL good.

Now, I’m not telling you to get up from your computer and walk away from
your job. This is NOT what I am saying. What I AM saying is to find your
passion and work on it daily so that there is something you are doing
that is fun and exciting to you. The more you work at it, the more
inspired you will become. And soon, you WILL be able to walk away from
your job and into a career that you are passionate about because you
will be true to yourself.

If you find yourself being confronted by fear, simply face it—don’t back
down. Say to yourself, “God has not given me the spirit of fear—but of
power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Therefore you are NOT real and
do NOT exist.” Say it over and over and over again until you fully
understand it, or until you convince your subconscious mind of it. This
way, when you are confronted with a seemingly fearful situation again,
you will automatically draw on the fact that this is NOT of God and
therefore it does NOT exist.
