You cannot force, coerce and demand change.
Change is a process that unfolds when the individual mind comes into alignment and cooperation with the flow of life, the universe at large. Change is a journey. Change is not linear, meaning do this and that will happen. Change is uncertain and uncertainty gives rise to fear. Change requires vision and strategic planning. Changes requires that we work from the top down (from the mind to the heart) and from the bottom up (from the experience to the cause of the experience) at the same time. Change often creates problems in our environment. Fear not! Problems are our friends! Without problems we cannot learn. Without problems we have no idea of the depth of the change that is required of us. So, as you endeavor to create changes in your life, I offer you, with love, the power, beauty and energy of these seven steps to support you on your journey. For each of you, I have no idea of what will happen. What I do know is that if you complete each step with an open heart and mind, something great will unfold in every aspect of your life. I can hardly wait for your progress reports!
In the meantime,
