What if I told you that everything you desire is right in front of you?
We cannot have access to the thing we desire for 2 simple reasons:
1. We make up stories that we do not have it.
2. We close our eyes to seeing it.
Let’s say you wanted to experience a sunny day. You make up a story that your blinds do not open or that you cannot find the key to your front door. Eventually you manage to get over your stories and you open the blinds but now you close your eyes. In both cases, the end result is that you do not see the sun.
The same principle applies for Love.
It is always available to us, but we close our heart to experiencing it. We label love differently – romantic love, motherly love, divine love, brotherly love – Love is one, however perception and reception of it is many. Your ability to receive it or willingness to receive it will determine the love you experience. Any time there is a prefix to the word Love, you are only getting a piece of Love. A slice of pizza is not the pizza. It is only a single piece. Love is the whole, the entirety, the completeness. There is no difference between the way your mother loves you and the way your partner loves you. How you interpret that love is defined by your own stories and filters. Which leaf of a tree is loved more by the tree? You cannot say. Each is loved equally.
Whether it is Love you desire or anything else that you wish to experience, it is all the same. Open your eyes or open you heart, your arms your self to seeing it and receiving it! This brings you to Vision. “Without Vision, the people will perish.”
If I showed you a seed in my hand, what would you say I hold in my hand? To the ordinary person, it’s just a seed, to the extraordinary person with vision, it is a forest. To a business minded person it may be a new furniture store. I am still only holding a seed in my hand, but it’s your vision that transforms it.
What else, today, in this moment is standing literally in front of you that you either do not see or take for face value or see no value. My vision for my work has always been Information-Inspiration-
There are any infinite opportunities that make themselves available to us every minute of every day. But if we are too busy being too busy, or just lack the vision then you will never notice them. Just because you have the gift of sight does mean you have vision.
Trans-form is to change the form. To make it something other than what it is.
To bake a cake you transform flour, butter, salt, egg, milk. To make a success* you transform opportunities, people, resources, ideas, skills, time and energy.
The answer is simple. But the cake isn’t baking itself. Neither does success just show up. Get to it! Get to work. Get going. Begin. Go.
Love,

*Success to me is waking up everyday day with peace in your heart knowing you do what you love and love what you do. It is independent of money. Money will flow as a byproduct of your success. It is not the measure of success.
