At some point this strange time that we are living through now is going to be over. However long it takes – whatever you believe, whether it takes two months, four, six, twelve of even eighteen months – astonishing, but irrelevant. The point is it WILL BE OVER. There is a choice to ask ourselves right now is how do we want our life to be different on the other side?

Like in any personal situation we go through in our lives, we have a very unique opportunity here to grow. That choice always was, and still is present. Just think of it as one of those life turns, only this one is not happening only to you, it’s happening to everyone around you, to the whole world, in fact.

How do you want you to be different? In what ways can this inspire you to do something you will be happy doing and proud to achieve? How do you imagine the world being after the crisis of such an unprecedented scale and impact?

We have to remain conscious of the fact that the only change that we can effect is within ourselves. We owe this to ourselves and to the creator. We came here, meaning we were born into this life to create, expand, grow. On that hangs the expansion of our oneness, the expansion of all there is. Of course it’s daunting to look at the whole picture. But we don’t have to act to change the big picture, the big picture per se is not our responsibility, but the way we create ourselves, the way we allow our consciousness to evolve, our mind to absorb, and our soul to love – is exactly how the big picture is affected by our choices.

Sometimes the direction is changed for us and we have to understand what is at stake. If there ever was time of awakening, it’s usually in some adversity. And it comes hidden within as a blessing, which is revealed always soon after we accept to grow further, to elevate our mindset and to create a brand new version of ourselves. Yes, every day.

I am here to create something revolutionary, and the clue about it, within this writing, is right underneath the title, as well as inside and between every word and line written. Only, in my case, this crisis didn’t wake me up to action, but merely confirmed and affirmed the path I was already on.

How am I certain that I will succeed in creating this? Because for me, this is the question of sink or swim, or more accurately live or die. There is no single part of me left alive that bought into the mentality that I should work for someone else’s dream, and because I believe that the vision I am given is because I am called to co-create it with the best. The only question I have: is this an interesting read for you? Because finding the answer will help both of us…. And I am here showing up for both of us. I am going to find it, my friend. That’s a promise.

P.S. What’s ahead is suitable only for dragons….

Amazing to realise that huge mindset shifts happen in such a short space of time. That just goes to show why this is necessary and how important it is. Trying to accomplish something from the wrong state is a fruitless exercise, but taking care to give yourself room to breathe, space to create, a challenge to achieve – leads to results. I never completely understood, nor fully appreciated a year long project, and the way you pace yourself, or rather allow the natural pace to unfold. The most crucial element is the mindset and unless its in the right place – the mountain doubles in size and our effort have to be how much more amplified in order to achieve anything? Plus, we are all over the place. But being armed with patience for yourself to get it, and then to start removing, peeling back, erasing, undoing all your beliefs that arent serving you and to start awakening to the fact that all of that is achieved and its only been two weeks. Astonishing. I cant even find the word to describe what a revelation that is. Being gentle with yourself, and understanding fully that patience will help you to stay grounded when you need to dig deep.

The above being the work on mindset, which is still ongoing – while in practical terms Im not sure in how many different ways I can describe the spring cleaning and the cataloguing of items that I no longer need to keep. It doesnt hurt to laugh at oneself, and I do that a lot. In fact, I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Feeling of the day is calm. Even though the wind is blowing strong and I can feel the sails puff up and rise with the wind, I am still able to hold steady on course. Between yesterday and today a little glitch happened – without going too deep into details – but calmness prevailed and washed over me like rain, whispering You are doing fine, all is well, stay in your belief. And I have listened, I have quieted my mind that was unsettled for a brief moment, because each time I caught it going to doubt, I said: No, thats not your thought, thats just because someone said something. But thats OK, they dont have your vision, nor know how determined you are to be your own hero. And I brought it back to smile. And calm!

Alleluia! Tomorrow I am planning to dedicate more hours to the home project, although I will see where inspiration takes me in the morning. There are three possible activities that all have to be done at some point, so I will certainly observe and follow the inner guidance and have fun whatever it is guiding me to do. Stay tuned, my friend.
