We hear a lot about goals. In
the spiritual community however
goals seem to have a bad
reputation because some think
that having goals either limit
our potential or gets in the way
of some universal divine plan.
The truth about goals is, it
gives us a sense of direction,
something to strive for. The
challenge is most people strive
for illusionary things they seem
are going to make them happy or
complete them.
So what needs to be questioned
is the "intention" behind the
goal. For example, if I am trying
to manifest whatever amount of
dollars I think is going to bring
me happiness, peace of mind,
satisfaction, or fulfillment,
etc., once that amount is
achieved and I am faced with the
painful reality that the changes
I was expecting within myself did
not come to pass, two things
could happen. One, I either
strive for more thinking that the
reason I feel the way I do is
because al though I have reached
my financial goal that amount
must not be enough, or second, I
could end up being frustrated,
miserable and depressed because I
can't figure out why I feel the
way I do even when I have
achieved my goal.
Is that means that we should
not have goals? I would not say
that because I am a firm believer
in having them. I paid a big
price in the early stages of my
life by not having them. By not
having a sense of direction, I
was drifting all over the place,
always barely making ends meet to
the point where my health began
to deteriorate and my life was
almost falling apart.
What I learned however is to
differentiate between goals that
are internally driven as opposed
to goals motivated by external
acquisition. The ones that we
seek externally are almost always
dictated by our ego, our small
self, the part of us that is
never satisfied and can never be
satisfied no matter what we do.
Internally driven goals on the
other hand, these come from a
completely different space. They
are usually aligned with a higher
purpose.
For example, writing my books
is definitely a goal. However,
that goal was inspired by my
life's mission as opposed to
motivated by me trying to become
a well known author and sell
books. It is fine to have
financial goals as long as we
understand that we use those
finances to helps us live the
live we deserve while at the same
times allowing us to fulfill our
mission.
We don't experience
fulfillment as a result of
"having more." We experience
fulfillment by fulfilling our
life's purpose. By expressing our
talents and gifts and by sharing
them with the rest of the world.
So ask yourself; What am I
here for? What is my life's
mission? And make that your goal
or main goal. You will be
directed as to what smaller steps
to take which indeed will become
a smaller goals within the bigger
one. And as long as you are
moving in that direction, watch
the universe bless you with all
the things you need in order to
fulfill your dream(s).
