This Week's Reflection

 

In you, right now, is the sure and certain understanding - to the point of knowing - of what is best for you and... the understanding of how best and effortlessly to get there. All you have to do is let it out.

 

As both this week's podcast and video explore and explain, you are a heat-seeking missile and, even though there are times in our lives where we feel we've hit a dead-end, gone off in the wrong direction or been shot down, any and every moment, regardless of how apparently insignigicant of mundane we might think such moments might be, is an opportunity for you to let go and let what's best for you happen.

 

What's best for you happens in the most unexpected and spontaneous ways. If you're not tuned in, you'll miss the spontaneity of it all, you'll miss the action and you'll miss the very essence of your life.

 

I'm not, for one minute, suggesting that, in letting go, that we throw caution to the wind - quite the opposite. Letting go means liberating ourselves from the ideas that we have, first of all, about ourselves and, perhaps, our undeservedness; the ideas that we have about what we want (often a world away from what's best for us); ideas about how we'll get to where we think we want to go and when it will happen.

 

No masterplan! No five-year plan! No plan at all. Let it happen.

 

I recollect a conversation with a client, here in the Alps, many years ago. I asked him to set his mind - fire his heat-seeking missile if you like. He told me that his goal couldn't come to pass within anything less than a five-year period. The following Tuesday he 'phoned me to tell me that it had "just happened".

 

Letting the best "just happen" requires that you let go, dive head-first into the here and now and swim in the wonder of the moment.
