Your very own "Magellan"

Some of you may have a navigational system in your car. I have one in mine. They're pretty amazing, aren't they? No matter where you're headed they give you guidance about how to get there. You make a wrong turn and they're relentless in telling you what to do to get back on track. If you listen and take Magellan's advice, you will definitely get to your destination. I like it!

What you may not realize is that every one of us is equipped with our very own personal Magellan. I call it your Inner Guidance--"IG" for short. Your IG works in your life just like the one in your car. When you know what you want--where you are headed--it gives you very good directions on how to get there.

The directions given by your personal IG aren't about roads, streets, corners, etc. No. The directions have to do with the roadmap of your emotions--your feelings. It's actually pretty simple---very good design. When you feel 'good' you are on the right course toward what you want. When you feel 'bad' you have strayed off course, made a wrong turn, and might even be getting lost. You may be going in the opposite direction from what you want. It's true.

Of course. there are lots of variations of 'feeling good' and 'feeling bad', but you really can keep it just that simple. When you are feeling bad you're veering off the path that would take you to what you want. And all you have to do to correct is to think of something--ANYTHING!--that will make you feel better. Couldn't be easier. Right?

Well, sometimes even the IDEA of thinking of something that will make you feel good seems like an impossibility, doesn't it? So don't reach for bliss.....that may be too far a stretch.....reach for relief. Good old fashioned relief. R-E-L-I-E-F. Just something that feels a little better, that's all. Keep that up and soon you will be right back on the right track.

I'll be writing more about this amazing IG of yours and how to best use it. But for now just remember to ask yourself 'how am I feeling?' and let your IG give you the correction you need to move toward your heart's desire!

Wishing you JOY and LIGHT,
Jan
