Ever get those moments of inspiration when it’s least expected? Those ideas that pop into your head in the shower or as you’re washing dishes aren’t just daydreams or passing thoughts, they’re signs from the Universe.
Many times we brush these little love notes aside because we get into our heads and talk ourselves out of taking action.
We start thinking about the how, or the why, or the many reasons people would call us crazy for acting on such an impulsive idea. We react out of fear so that we may stay in our comfort zone and remain in a “safe” space where we only allow ourselves to grow so much, that way we don’t ruffle the feathers of the people around us who choose to stay where they’re at.
But what if we did actually take action on some of these nudges from our higher self, the Universe, God, Source, whatever you want to call it?
These drops of wisdom are here for us to take action on. This knowledge is being gifted to us for a reason- it’s part of who we are and what we are meant to experience here on this planet.
However, we have been programmed to ignore it.
Our society and culture (not to mention generations of familial beliefs) have taught us that living big and going for our dreams is frivolous, reckless, and downright dangerous. We are constantly told to “get a good, stable job” and are shown the road of “reality” everyone follows through school, traditions, and the media.
Those who follow their dreams usually fail (to those who don’t realize that failure isn’t really a thing, it’s just a lesson). They are called “dreamers”. They are bombarded by their family and friends to “get their head out of the clouds” and join the ranks of the working class like everyone else.
Basically, other people are so afraid of standing out, bring different, trying something new, and of thinking outside the box, that they project their fears on to those who genuinely want something more for themselves than what “life” seems to have in store.
These are the people who are choosing not to expand. And that’s ok. Not everyone is ready to tap into their highest self and blindly follow the inspiration being given to them.
But for those who do, magic happens.
When we actually go for it and act upon these impulses, we are being guided directly to what we are here for. We are expressing ourselves in the truest form of the divine, who has caught our attention and directed us to see our path more clearly.
These actions become a way for us to live and feel our authenticity. Ever do something that felt amazing before, during, and after you did it? This was you experiencing the oneness of all that is.
Guided action (action you take from hits of inspiration) should always feel good, easy, and effortless. It leaves you feeling a sense of peace and fulfillment, and you radiate pure joy for life. It’s easy to get lost for hours in these types of activities where you forget to eat or you feel like time has stopped altogether.
When you receive this guidance notice where you are and what you’re doing. This is the Universe talking to you, giving you signs about what you are meant to do. If you can act immediately then more steps for you to follow will be revealed and you will be guided down a path of unlimited opportunities.
If you don’t trust it though, and let the moment pass, you may be hit down the road with a blow from the universe that puts you on your path regardless if you want it or not. It doesn’t matter if you’re “ready” to do something you were meant to do, if it’s time then your higher self will let you know.
And you will be shown the steps you need to take.
This can come in the form of a job loss, an accident, meeting someone who gives you a new opportunity, an illness, or even a book falling on your head (that actually happened to a very well-known energy healer who was studying to be an accountant).
The Universe is always conspiring with you to give you what you want in life and to show you your path to your greater purpose. We just don’t always see it.
When you get hits of inspiration, see if you can act on them no matter how crazy they may seem. You never know where it might lead you. You are getting that thought for a reason.
These love notes are just for you because there is only one you in the whole entire world. YOU are here to do things that only YOU can. Isn’t it nice that there’s a force out there guiding you to take those actions that only YOU are meant to take? Wouldn’t it be nice to listen to and follow that guidance so you never have to think about your next step and you can just let it come to you?
Where do you think it might lead you? Who do you think you would be if you followed through with action to your inspiration?
Listen to the messages you are receiving. This is how you become a force in the world.
