LIFE-MASTERY IN A NUTSHELL

Life-mastery can be achieved following one simple rule -- bring a fully present and loving self to every situation and task ... no matter how difficult or onerous.

This applies to all aspects of daily life -- relating with people; doing your job; maintaining your health, finances and household, as well as when engaging in creative activities.

As simple as this approach seems, it can be very challenging; we may need to change many of our beliefs, ways of thinking and habitual responses and completely recondition ourselves. But whatever is required, the benefits are enormous and well worth it.

If we approach every situation with our most attentive loving self, we can experience life at its best. And, as we increase our capacity to be loving and to be fully present, we can experience ever higher levels of satisfaction and success ... including what some consider divine experiences.

A great sense of wonder, reverence and creative excitement may be experienced anywhere. This means that even a mundane task may not only become pleasant or enjoyable, it can become a very high experience whereby we actually rejoice in it. It also means that all our relationships and activities can provide new opportunities for deep connection and fulfillment ... more than we may now imagine.

This level of living is what I call living in your divine zone. And it’s for anyone who chooses it by focusing on being extra loving and present throughout each day. This is the key commitment that transforms life. But don't take my word for it. Experiment with being more fully focused and loving for a few minutes each day and see what happens.

Goodness and joy to all, Joseph.
