"The only way to have and do everything you’ve ever wanted is by first seeing you living as if you already do."
- Nathan Blaszak
When I’m lost, I often throw my hands in the air, take a deep breath and ask the universal force out there to guide me to where I belong, give me strength to make it there, and to protect me from evil.
One night, this is what I did. I got to thinking about how life seemed so much easier before. I used to be able to close my eyes, imagine what I had wanted, and I’d get it. I was always 100% confident in my ability to do this, and somewhere along the way I had lost this special skill.
When you lose the skill to rapidly have and do what you want, it really gets to you – especially when you’ve had it before. Did you do something wrong? Did karma take it away from you? What’s this feeling that I had before?
As I stood there in the moonlight wondering what it was that I had done before, I finally just turned it over to the universe.
Now, when I say universe, I’m talking about that supreme being. I highly doubt we’re the only conscious beings in the universe and there stands a high probability that there are a lot of others out there that know more than we do. They’re more advanced, have better technology, and who knows? Maybe they even control our planet?
I’ve always left the God concept open. The infinite regression question gets boring to me. Who created God? Who created the creator of God? And so on.
Typically, you’ll get some spiritual counselor that’ll come up with a clever way to explain this, but the argument I always give them is “Well then if God just exists, then existence just exists.” They never know what to say to that. After all, if it just exists, then nothing was created? Their argument is that God just exists. Well, great, that must then mean existence has always existed, and just exists.
You follow?
People are twisted in their spirituality. What’s so wrong with the idea that maybe you’re so unique as an individual, everything that you have to offer is good for this world, and if you can tap into your gifts and use them, then you too can have “god like” power?
What’s wrong with the idea that maybe you’re just a part of God because he’s bored just sitting around existing so he split himself into the universe and a continuous stream of conscious beings trying to find their way back to him?
Why aren’t ever any of these questions being asked?
You’re created in his perfect image, you’re powerful. Yes? You’re a part of him. In fact, the two of you are one of the same. And whatever gifts you have that come naturally are your special talents.
I happen to have several gifts. You do. You’re neighbor does. Nobody is superior to anyone else. While I may have an incredible ability to set up people’s futures in any way I see fit (this is one of my gifts), while you may not be able to do the same, perhaps you have an ability to make people smile much more than I ever could.
Stated in another way: someone that is good at the guitar may not be proficient at wrenching a vehicle and performing maintenance on it. You’re brother is. Or somebody else has those abilities is. That’s all there is to it. ,
Nobody is superior.
I always get a kick out of people that try to “model” success. What for? To develop a skill? Sure. If it serves you. What I get a kick out of the most is how people don’t understand that when they just accept what their talents and gifts are, they don’t need to model success simply because they’re already naturally experts at it.
I was able to play my school fight song in the 6th grade the night my dad brought me home my new saxophone. Music by ear comes naturally to me. I don’t need anyone to tell me how to play a song. I listen to it, and replicate it.
This is a gift.
When I open a new piece of software, I can figure out how to use it in a matter of minutes. Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Photoshop, Adobe this, Sony that, I know this stuff. It comes naturally. I don’t have to sit there with a blank dumb look on my face. I know what to do, what to click, how to do it.
This is a gift.
What are yours?
Nobody shows you how to do it, you just naturally can do it. Maybe it’s your energy. Maybe it’s the way you can make peple smile. Maybe it’s how people can confide in you. Maybe it’s about how comfortable you make people feel. Maybe you can acquire more than enough money.
Whatever your gift is, choose to embrace it.
“When you embrace your gifts and figure out a way to profit from it, then you’ll never be in shortage of happiness -- or anything else, either.”
