Spiritual Awakening: Becoming Heart Centered!!!<\/h1>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Over the last several years\u00a0 I have had the pleasure of meeting many people who are truly heart centered. These people put others first asking how they can be of service and value to others. They are constantly looking for ways to make the world a better place. When asked for support they are the first to step up. These heart centered people make up less than 5% of the population, however they are the ones who are most successful in their personal and professional life.\u00a0 One of these people is Kristin Planinz, whose email resonated with me and she gave me permission to share it here on this blog. When I first started this blog it was to share with others so as to empower and inspire them to enhance their personal and professional life. Thank you to Kristin Planinz for sharing her insight.<\/p>\n

How to See When You Can’t See<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

True Story #1:<\/b><\/div>\n

Yesterday I was practicing gratitude and I decided to show\u00a0some gratitude by\u00a0doing something nice for my husband (Kyle).\u00a0 So I filled up the car with gas before he left to work.\u00a0 I was\u00a0laughing to myself, thinking of how happy he would be\u00a0when he discovered\u00a0what I did and I anticipated a\u00a0lovely phone call\u00a0just a few minutes after he left.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

I got that phone call, but it wasn’t lovely.\u00a0 As he rushed off to work he didn’t notice the gas gauge and attempted to refuel the tank.\u00a0\u00a0But when the gas refused to fit where it couldn’t,\u00a0it ended up all over\u00a0Kyle instead and he\u00a0got angry!<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

His first impulse was to blame me for his misfortune.\u00a0 Why didn’t I tell him what I had done?\u00a0 He would have experienced gratitude knowing what I had done and gone on his merry way to work, avoiding the whole unpleasant encounter.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

My perspective:\u00a0 why did he not look at his gauge?\u00a0 Why did he set himself up to be rushing so much that he didn’t look at what was right in front of him?\u00a0 How could I have known he wouldn’t see?<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

True Story #2:<\/b><\/div>\n

Last week I put a broken dining room chair out in the trash. I noticed it disappeared before the trash-man came and I wondered who would want a broken chair?\u00a0 My husband had told me he couldn’t fix it.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Today I walked into the dining room\u00a0and Kyle pointed to the table and said, “look.”\u00a0 I looked, but I was clueless.\u00a0 What am I looking at?\u00a0 It wasn’t until\u00a0he\u00a0verbalized, \u00a0“there are four chairs at the table instead of three” that it clicked in my brain what I was supposed to see.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

For a brief moment I couldn’t fathom how it was possible until Kyle once again\u00a0revealed to me\u00a0that\u00a0our neighbor had come over and returned the chair to us fixed.\u00a0 Because I hadn’t seen or heard anything,\u00a0it\u00a0took me a moment to accept this reality.\u00a0 And now I am overjoyed by the\u00a0kindness of my neighbor.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

When was the last time you were pleasantly surprised? <\/b><\/div>\n

Can you remember what it felt like?<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

And when was the last time you were unpleasantly surprised?<\/b><\/div>\n

Can you remember?<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

My gut feeling on this is that there’s a learning opportunity here for us both and it has to do with TRUST and ACTION.\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

In BOTH cases, the action taken came from\u00a0love and with the pure intention to bless us.<\/div>\n

In BOTH cases, both Kyle and I initially failed to see the gift when it was literally right in front of our eyes.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Sometimes when we take action we get the results we expect. And sometimes we do not. But just because we don’t get the results we expect doesn’t mean the action we took was wrong or that we have somehow screwed things up.\u00a0 This is easily seen when you’re doing something nice for somebody, like me filling up the tank\u00a0and my neighbor fixing the chair.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Taking action is the ultimate form of self-trust.\u00a0 <\/b><\/div>\n

When you act on a guided feeling or thought, you demonstrate to yourself and to the Universe that\u00a0you do indeed\u00a0trust your inner guidance and the Divine.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Action always precedes results, and sometimes in the lag time, we wonder if we’re doing the right thing.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

And sometimes in the lag time, the gasoline comes out when it’s supposed to go in, but always\u00a0 there is an opportunity waiting to be embraced.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

When this happens,\u00a0three things are necessary:<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

1.\u00a0 Refrain from moving into “victim energy” –“you should have told me,” “you should have seen.”\u00a0 (We both bantered back and forth with this energy for a little while and it felt like a forced game of Ping-Pong.\u00a0 Not fun!)<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

2.\u00a0 Trust the action you took.\u00a0 Guided action\u00a0is born\u00a0from the highest intentions, just like my neighbor\u00a0fixing the chair for us.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

3.\u00a0 Open your eyes and look for that thing you just can’t yet see.\u00a0 There’s an opportunity and a blessing waiting for you personally, whether it’s a full tank of gas\u00a0or a new chair.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Sometimes we need help to see.\u00a0 And sometimes the blocks must be removed before we can see.\u00a0 Here is wisdom waiting for you to scoop it up and joy\u00a0desiring to be embraced.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

What are you waiting for?<\/div>\n

What\u00a0action will you take today to SEE the opportunity?<\/div>\n
