Today, I’m here to remind you that no matter how much you feel like you have to perform, conform, produce or achieve in the world…
 
You have a True Self. 

It is sacred and it is golden.

And you have a purpose. 

Your purpose is not necessarily a big-ass one-and-done thing you can do and then take a nap or just… die. 

Your purpose is a verb. A thing you do over and over again, for your whole lifetime.

It’s something you’ve probably been doing—and doing well—since childhood. 

Something that actualizes your inner genius and lights you up, too.

And the only way to discover and align to your purpose is to fulfill your sacred contracts—a long list of things you came here to be, do, have, learn or create in this lifetime… unique spirit and personality that came here to impact the world. 

Lately, I’ve  been approached by a number of smart, successful people who know they aren’t living their Best Lives… and they don’t even know what to do about that, because they’re not even clear on what their highest purpose is. 

Some people, on some days, medicate the pain away. Numbing with consumption: food, alcohol, buying and buying and buying. Binge watching. Narcotizing.

And that’s okay… until it’s not. 

But some people, on some days, decide to get their sh!t together, sit down and wrack their brains trying to figure stuff out. 

They might even hire a coach or a therapist. 

They might even take a personality assessment or start writing a business plan. 

But they feel stymied, stuck and blocked—all that inner gold pent up and piling up within— by their unclarity of what they REALLY want to do.

Here’s the epiphany: 

You will never figure out the meaningful, joyful vision for what’s next in your life sitting in a room, wracking your brain. 

To get clear on what’s next for you, you have to start taking baby steps and bigger leaps.

You have to let everything be an experiment, and stop trying to get it all right or avoid unwanted consequences. 

And then let the natural next steps continue to light up. Let Divine Order and Timing lead the way. 

I know it’s tempting to think you can just sit in a room and put out a meticulous, can’t fail action plan in place before you take Step One.

People hire me to help them create a What’s Next roadmap all the time. 

But very often, that roadmap ends up saying that What’s Next needs to be a season of exploration and experimentation. 

Anything else defies the way life really works. And defies the way Divine Order and Divine Timing unfold, which is always perfect and in your favor. 

Trying to come up with super clear and tightly laid action plans does you the disservice of making total and complete clarity into a false prerequisite for your own joy. 

The truth is that commitment to discovering and living a highly-aligned life IS clarity.

Commitment IS clarity. 

Commitment to hear your Inner Guidance and head it.

Commitment to your own wholeness and joy. 

Commitment to let the Divine Genius within you be RELEASED without further ado. 

Commitment to let shackles on/shackles off be your decision rule on everything from which school your kids go to, to what city you live in, to who you choose as life partner, to what career or business you create.

When you commit to these things, you set your Inner Guidance system GPS to these things: 

Wholeness.

Joy.

Liberation. 

Your Genius.

Expansion. 

She who desires these things and commits to these things, seeks out these things… and finds them. 

If you want to get clear on what’s next for your life, there’s really nothing you need to be figuring out.

If you want to engineer a real breakthrough into your watershed season—think less and feel more. 

Think less and take more action TO EXPLORE your inspired ideas, impulses and instincts, when they speak.

Set down the notion that you have to think your ideas all the way through and set yourself up to successfully execute them before you can take a single step in that direction. 

The truth is that Divine Timing may slow you down so other circumstances in the world can ripen in readiness for you.

The truth is that Divine Order might take you one step toward one idea just so that you can build a skill, meet a person or learn a thing that will take you joyfully and rapidly into a destiny that hasn’t even occurred to you yet.

And it won’t occur to you until you take the step. 

That’s why we talk about letting the steps light up before you. 

So I invite you to set down the notion of action planning and 5-year-planning and productivity and “thinking it through”.

And feel your way into what FEELS like the natural next step. Then take it. 

What feels exciting, expansive, yes a little bit scary and also like a liberating gift you would give yourself? Do that. 

What feels binding, shrinking, constricting? Don’t do that. 

I know it’s tempting to want to sit in a room and sort yourself out before you make any changes to your life or start investing your time or money in a course of action. 

But the truth is, literally 100% of smart, successful people already have a solid-enough idea of what you would LOVE to do with your life to take some step in the direction of getting even clearer.

You already know.

You may have been overruling it and overriding it.

You might have some inner conflicts or roadblocks blocking it. 


But you know. 

You have an inkling. 

I know you do. 

It might be the thing you won’t even let yourself utter because it breaks your brain a little bit.

It’s probably related to the thing that sparks the most fear in your heart, when you think about doing it. 

That’s always a good bread crumb to what you’re here to do.

Tell me what you’re afraid to do, and I’ll tell you what you would LOVE to do. 

Then, just take a tiny, natural next step.

If it’s both terrifying and energizing when you think about it, that’s probably the right step for you to take.  

And feel how that feels. See what you learn. Watch what happens next, as your step sends out sparks to other people, opportunities and principalities that YOU’RE READY. 

That’s how you invite more and more clarity. 

That said: Over the years, I have guided thousands of people into cultivating clarity, removing inner roadblocks, setting powerful intentions and taking powerful action to do their dreams. 

Back in the day, I created the 10 Day Writing Challenge to gently reset your nervous system and guide you into the rituals of clear-minded, intentional self-transformation.
