My Dear Friend;
Life has its ebbs and flows; all of life pulses in cycles—youth and old age, poverty and wealth, employment and unemployment, loneliness and love, day and night, rest and activity….
In your life, there will be lull periods right before a storm of activity. If you find yourself in a lull period, idling between active chapters, purposely take time to image the better, more expansive life to come.
Thinking, planning, and imagining are not the same as wasting time. If you cannot imagine a certain life, you cannot have it; every human endeavor is first triggered by imagination and visualization. Even as you engage in your next project, fall asleep each night and wake up each morning imagining in detail what your life to come looks like.
When you haven’t yet constructed your new life, it may seem far- fetched to take the first step towards it. The first step is the hardest to take mostly because of fear and doubt which dissolve willpower. Know that action is a very necessary ingredient of manifesting reality. First you must imagine it, then, you must take the very first step to construct reality out of your imaginings.
Muster all your willpower and courage; look straight ahead, not to the left nor to the right; look straight at the target. Exhale fear and doubt out of your lungs and keep your sight on your heavenly target.
Say to the fearful ego, this may kill you but at least I will die on the path to my cherished life!
Now, go out and make magic!
