THREE GREAT LEAPS

There are three great consciousness leaps we can take that can dramatically change life. The first happens when we fully realize that the actions of our consciousness -- what we think, feel, believe, desire and intend -- actually create the life results we get.

Until we make this leap in self-understanding and open ourselves to the creative power of our own consciousness, we may often feel that we’re at the mercy of others and/or life’s unpredictable whims.  But once we take this leap, we clear the way to have much greater power. 

The second great consciousness leap happens when we realize that we can change and improve consciousness ... and thereby deliberately use our mind’s creative power to shape better outcomes. 

Until this realization, we may be shaping our life outcomes unconsciously and inadvertently ... not the best way to get the good results we want.  However, with this realization, we become free to deliberately experiment with the elements of consciousness and more consciously choose what we think, feel and believe.  And this allows us to get much better results.

The third great leap happens when realizing that by using our consciousness power not just for ourselves, but for others too, we reach our greatest happiness and fulfillment.

It takes only three great consciousness leaps to have a magnificent life -- one to discover our power, a second to actualize it, and a third to use it best. So GET READY ... GET SET ... and ... TAKE A GREAT LEAP!

Goodness and joy to all, Joseph.

CREATING LASTING LOVE

When we feel a special ‘chemistry’ with someone we may be tempted to believe that we’ve met our soul-mate and fall helplessly in love. But this kind of uncontrollable romantic reaction is unpredictable, and if it happens is unlikely to last.

This is why dating can provoke high anxiety and why many romantic relationships soon struggle or fail, even if they start off with great chemistry -- at any moment a new desire, judgment or turn of events can cool or upset things. As wonderful as it may seem or be, romantic love is usually based on undependable subjective reactions which make it very chancy.

To keep love alive, romantic love needs to grow into a higher and more stable form of love -- a more mature true love.

Mature true love doesn’t arise from subjective chemistry as romantic love does. It’s something at a clear, calm moment of conscious self-possession we choose: to commit, care and give unconditionally to another person. At this level one fully accepts another -- failings and all -- and places their well-being on a par with their own.

So if you’re seeking true and lasting love, don’t look to accidental chemistry ... look to a higher-will capacity. That’s where the power to produce lasting love lies. At a mature consciously willing level, two people not only select and deliberately choose to love each other they make that choice daily, again and again and again, continually growing their feelings of love.  Thus, while romantic love may only be a capricious accident of human nature, true lasting love is a deliberate ongoing creative act of mature human will.

Goodness and joy to all, Joseph.
