Time Can Be So Slow

 While the journey of a thousand steps may begin with the first one, it may sometimes feel like your goal is unattainable, the journey not worth making. Time can feel like it is moving so slowly when we are waiting on something that is important to materialize; or a change that simply must be. If you are waiting to take that first step, remember that in the words of Anthony Robbins, "The only impossible journey is the one you never begin."

What has prevented you from venturing out and taking the first step towards something important to you? Many people fail to do it because they simply cannot believe their goal is possible to achieve. Before you begin it is necessary to define your goal, being careful that achieving it does not rely on changing someone else. It is a futile exercise to base your own happiness on your ability to change another person. It is equally futile to imagine that your happiness can be found in anyone else. It is yours; uniquely you.

Where then do you begin a journey to affect lasting change or achieve something important? You narrow it down; condense it to the most basic form. Everything condensed is more powerful. Discard all the 'window dressing' that surrounds your idea, keep it simple.

Abandon all of your ideas about how to accomplish the goal; you are limiting yourself to only what you currently know when you confine all the methods of arrival to methods you already know. If you knew the path to arrive you would have already be there! You are connected to a much more powerful source of information through your super conscious mind or higher self.

The information available through universal consciousness, where it is connected, is vast and rewarding. You accomplish this by simply making the decision that you don't know how but you do accept that a way will be made even if you can't see it. Then let go of determining how you will get there; the right opportunity will arrive.

This poem with an unknown author should become your mantra:

Let Go and Let God

As children bring their broken toys, in tears for us to mend
I brought my broken dreams to God, because He was my friend.
And then, instead of leaving Him in peace, to work alone
I hung around and tried to help, with ways that were my own.
At last I snatched them back and cried, "How could you be so slow?"
"My child, He said, what could I do; you never did let go."

Once you define your goal, believe it can be attained and then stand by for your arrival on this most peculiar journey!
