"Recalculating!"

I've been having a lot of fun recently using a GPS system during my travels. Have you seen them? Basically, you type in your destination and this great little system helps you navigate to where you want to go. It will even tell you nearby restaurants, hotels and other points of interest.

There's a computer generated female voice that calls out directions, road names and each turn to make. For me this has been a totally empowering experience-- as I am usually geographically challenged.

But even more importantly, this little system is a very close parallel to our life experience.

Let me explain...

When you know where you want to go (your destination) all you need to do is type it in and the GPS system will guide you there.

If you miss a turn, get off on the wrong road or prefer to go another way for awhile--which happens A LOT with some drivers I know (who shall remain nameless)--the system simply says, "RECALCULATING" and immediately gives you the updated directions based on where you are now.

Because here's the thing-- the GPS system only cares about two specific points: Where you are NOW and where you want to GO. It doesn't care about where you were last year, last month or even 5 minutes ago. It doesn't care about where your friends are, other places you might or might not enjoy going, where you've been in the past or where you might go in the future. It doesn't even care if you mess up and take a wrong turn or get on the wrong road altogether.

All the GPS system cares about is where you are NOW and where you want to GO. And it will ALWAYS give you a route to arrive at your destination as long as you know where you want to go--no matter how many times you mess up or get off track along the way. (Believe me, I know. I hear "recalculating" a lot!)

The great news is-- this is as true in life as it is with a GPS!

It doesn't matter where you were in the past, where your friends are or your family thinks you should be, how many times you get side-tracked, or completely off track and going in the opposite direction-- all you need to be concerned about is where you are TODAY and where you want to BE.

Because THIS MOMENT is your only point of power. Nothing else matters. Even if you've lived poor, sick, unhappy, unhealthy and generally miserable for the last 50 years of your life--everything can turn around FAST by simply being aware of these two very powerful points relativity-- WHERE YOU ARE NOW AND WHERE YOU WANT TO BE.

Your Source, Your Creator is like YOUR PERSONAL GPS system. And if you will simply focus in this moment NOW on exactly where you want to GO (forgetting all the other stuff that means nothing) you will be called along just the right path at just the right time to arrive just where you want to be.

The key, as always, is KNOWING what you want (what you want to have, do and be). If you have a clear destination and you can place your trust in that all-knowing personal GPS system right here waiting to show you the way, you'll find that your life takes on a whole new feel. Success, wealth, health, happiness, fun and great relationships are yours. All you have to do is ASK for it.

And if you mess up along the way?

No problem. Just close your eyes and hear the words, "Recalculating!"... knowing that regardless of where you are there's always a path that will lead you to where you want to be.

Spend a few minutes right now and program in your destination. Get clear on where you're headed and then focus on taking actions, dwelling on thoughts and speaking words each day that lead you closer to achieving that goal.

Forget the past and all the other junk that doesn't deserve even a moment of your attention. Use the PRESENT MOMENT (your point of power) to follow your bliss and you'll soon realize that the journey AND the destination are full of fun surprises and abundance at every turn.

To Living The Good Life,
