May 27th, 2008WHAT IF….?
Dont’cha just LOVE the game of “what if…?” ???
In the workshop I am currently leading on the topic of “Transforming your FEARS to POWER”, I have included an exercise called the “WHAT IF GAME”.
How often do you find yourself playing this game with yourself?
What if…it rains today? What if…I run out of money? What if…my significant other leaves me? What if…I lose my job? What if…the stock market crashes again? What if…
So how would you plan this game?
In Susan Jeffers book, FEEL THE FEAR and Do It Anyway! she suggests we add an answer to the “what if” questions we all have, most of the time:
If this or that does happen…I CAN HANDLE IT! YES! I CAN HANDLE IT!
How much of that do you believe? If you DON’T believe that you can handle it, what is it that causes you to doubt yourself, your ability for adapting or handling whatever comes along? What is it that you believe about yourself and your abilities that have caused you to doubt your own magnificence as a human being?
I’m here to remind you–and you are here to remind me–that we are each created by our Creator to be magnificent human beings, experiencing joy and love in our lives. We are wired for happiness. We are wired for excellence. We are wired to smile amidst the tears that may fall as we feel sadness. We are wired to be partners in creation every day of our lives.
What if…there was no way you could lose? What if…you were destined for greatness, no matter what? What if…there was nothing but love?
