Wonders and miracles and how things change

My angel investors did not appear until after I let some things, people and behaviors go. Such is the Law of Attraction and its corollary, the Rule of Release.

The people who I am now attracting into my life are so much different than the ones who are falling away from me. It's obvious to one and all that I am living a more purposeful life, and those who are not on that now changed wavelength are uncomfortable, feel repelled, and no longer hold the same allure as once they did.

In order for the Law of Attraction to work effectively in my life, I must continually be willing and able to release that which does not serve or honor my highest being.

Now that's some serious work.

What I'm noticing about releasing things, situations and people is how much less psychodrama there is when I do it from a place of Purpose. When I am in alignment with my Life Purpose, the transitions are less jarring. I do not mean that it's always easy, it's just gotten simpler.

Let me digress for a moment or three about the difference between simple and easy.

So many times in our lives we are faced with a simple choice, the answer for which should be (and usually is) obvious. When pondering that choice all sorts of thoughts creep in, and our desire for comfort and our reliance on the familiar override what we know in our best Self to be the best decision. We then choose easy over simple.

The simple thing is usually the best course of action. Not the easiest, but the best. We humans like to compli-damn-cate every god blessed thing, pretty much. Thus does simple become daunting. When we are faced with getting outside our comfort zone, of dancing out there on our growth edge, we lose our nerve. We don't see the net because we're supposed to jump with both feet into our own Purposeful life. And because we cannot see the net, we do not jump.

Only after you jump does the net appear.

It is only when we dive headlong into our higest aspirations that the Universe gets the message that yes, we really DO mean to walk our talk, and the resources seem to magically appear. (CLUE: it's not magic, it's the Law of Attraction)

And that, my friends, is why some eagles have to be pushed. Sometimes the folks around us can see what we cannot, which is that we too can fly. So, the good ones push us.

In order to succeed in life we have to choose people we can rely on to help us get where we're going, and then we have to learn to trust them.

How do we choose? It's simple (heh, you knew I wans gonna say that, huh?). For the best results, choose allies who you know in your gut have your best interests at heart, whose own life and self you admire, and who already walks their own talk. They don't need to be perfect, they just need to be reliable people of goodwill who are able to hold space or take action as needed. Those are the best pushers.

Sometimes those folks already exist in our lives. Then it becomes necessary to explcitly enroll them as supporters of you and your Life Purpose. This is usually easier than it sounds. Just ask.

Sometimes, there seems to be no one around who you can trust to have your back without interjecting their own agenda for you. The folks around you in your support network are too emotionally close to the action to be objective. Maybe the scope and scale of your challenges and goals are beyond their capacity to embrace.

In those cases, I heartily recommend getting a life coach.

Coaches are great pushers. They don't run the race for you, that's not how it works. A coach's job is to encourage, cajole, kick butt, inspire. A coach sees not just who you are today, but who you are at your core, as the miracle incarnate that you are. Yes, they see your challenges and weaknesses, but far from being daunted by them, they devote themselves to your empowerment.

Coaching is not for the faint of heart. It's not therapy, though you will learn and grow through a coaching alliance in ways you cannot imagine today. Coaching relationships in the real world give to "just folks" what Olympic athletes get from their coaches: expertise, mentoring, clarity, and an unwavering commitment to your Best Self. They have the experience and perspective necessary to push us out of our ruts and into our bliss.

Since we did not incarnate on a planet of over 6 billion people to do everything alone, it then behooves us, one and all, to create relationships of empowerment and possibility with one another. This is a great deal of fun to do, actually.

Seek out wise counsel. Use the resources in your life to help you release what needs to be let go of, and open yourself up to the very real possibility that you could really live the life of your dreams.

Even eagles need to be pushed sometimes. Leap and the net WILL appear.
