The Journey of Awareness Toward A Successful Life

Part One

We are all on a journey together.

This is the most amazing journey a human being could take. At the same time, it’s a journey into the center of who we are and a journey into the stars of who we truly are and what we truly can do and how magical our lives can be. In life, we have the most powerful tool placed in our hands, and that’s the power of choice. We have a choice to lead a successful life or to live a life of strife and struggle.

On this journey toward a successful life, we must venture on the journey of awareness. It means you will face challenges—and some will be big challenges.

An abundant life isn’t one without challenges. It means you’re getting ready for bigger things in life. The challenges will get bigger, but don’t let that frighten you. The more aware we become and face the challenges from a more conscious place within ourselves, the challenges don’t harden us, they soften us.

This may be a somewhat difficult concept to grasp, as our minds grapple with an idea that may unfamiliar. What happens is that we begin to embrace ALL of what we are. Our amount of compassion for our own predicament as a human being expands, and at the same time our compassion for all of us also expands. We don’t become hardened, we don’t become bitter, and we definitely don’t stay stuck in negative energy. We open our hearts to become softer. We open our spirit and become softer still. We will sit with it, and it’s almost like its percolating. Awareness can only go in one direction. It can only expand. For those on the journey of awareness, each day become increasingly more aware than when you first walked into the doors of Core Value Training.

This expansion in awareness is linked to energy.

Everything is about energy. Everything IS energy. Once we understand that truth, it means we’ve stepped through that door to a level of awareness where, increasingly, whenever we choose to be out of power or in negative energy, we become increasingly aware we are making it as a choice. When you begin to own that choice is when you begin to own how powerful you are.
