Are You Living Your Highest Vision?
Are You living Your Highest Vision For Your life?
A few years ago I made a commitment to myself that changed my life. I decided that despite any pressure I imagine otherwise, I would pursue my highest vision. Whether it seemed crazy, far out, off the wall- I did not care, I only knew that every day I avoided expressing my deepest truths was a day that I died a little bit inside.
So I began a journey into my true self.
I published poetry, articles and a book and I began working one-to-one with clients all over the World seeking guidance, especially those who were at some kind of turning point or experiencing transformation. I felt like someone had pulled a plug out of my third eye. I could intuit things before they happened, and ’see’ myself and others that I worked with in my sessions living their divine life mission effortlessly and with grace and love.
It was exciting, but also kind of scary at first and I would sometimes doubt myself. Over time though I learnt to trust my creativity, my intuition and the wisdom I received and became full of my highest excitement. As more and more things ‘came true’ or aligned, the more faith I had in myself and what I was discovering, especially as synchronistic events and occurrences acted like little sign posts to “keep believing.”
At the time though I had no frame of reference or assurance that I wasn’t just losing the plot (!) I took my inspiration from others who had walked before me and pursued their vision no matter what.
I became fascinated with the so called “eccentrics”, who were creating something from a vision deep inside them that felt true, rather than an external accepted or perceived ‘truth’ or reality. It didn’t make any difference to me if that person was a World famous inventor- for example Thomas Edison, or a little known ‘peaceful warrior’ planting a garden his or her way, for a purpose they could see or feel… Big or small, it inspired me just the same.
One of my favourite places to visit is the wonderful Portmerion in Wales, a true visionary concept made manifest and still delighting
folks and inspiring people just like you and me, who know there is more to life than a 9-5 or a job you hate! It was created by the innovative Welsh architet Clough William-Ellis (1883-1978) to demonstrate how a naturally beautiful place could be developed without spoiling it.
The other place that springs to mind for inspiration is La Sagrada Familia Gaudi’s phenomenal Cathedral dedicated to the Holy Family in Barcelona. I visited some years ago and was so in awe of the fact that the visionary behind the project had died so many years previously but his vision was now being honoured by some of the best architects and builders in the World dedicating their time and energy to completing the project to reflect his highest vision.
A Vision Made Manifest!
No one knows exactly when it will be finished because it’s so unique and complex. Work began in 1883! The fact that this is still being worked on today shows the power of what ahappens when you bring your dreams into reality, by committing to your vision, draw a line in the sand and say “I am doing this…No matter what….I bet my marbles, and I commit!” Then there is no going back, there is no more ‘flakiness’ no more indecision, there is clarity, truth and purpose and that is where the magic begins!
So today i am going to ask you 2 important questions, but I warn you that the answers could change your life forever…
1) What is your highest excitement? What is your true vision for your life, the one that gives you a feeling of awe and makes your heart beat quicker?
2) Are you willing to commit to living, breathing, working, being from the place inside you that not only sees your highest vision, but also wants to co-create it with you?
Once you know, once you make this commitment, and take this ’spiritual promise’ you simply can’t go back, it’s impossible! Even if you try to, turning back will be futile once you have made this oath as you will know in your heart that deep down you have a gift inside you that you want to share. You’ll never want to leave that place inside you once you have found it!
A great way to begin to manifest your vision is to Imagine yourself actually in that future right now – see feel, hear, smell, taste and touch it…as vividly as possible, and then write a ‘brain dump’ of every single thing you can think of that it will take to make it happen… Finally ‘marinade’ in your vision whenever you get the chance. If you dream it, you can live it.
So do one thing that inspires you today, and start working back from your vision!
