Spiritual Awakening: Leave Expectations At The Door!!!<\/h1>\n

Through the spiritual awakening process an important aspect to learn and apply is that of detaching from expectations. \u00a0This lesson was very evident as I decided to put my passion into action and run POINTS FOR THE CURE FOOTBALL EDITION for The NCAA and NFL Games played from 10\/22-10\/28. I thought with all the chatter on Facebook and Twitter about football that this fundraiser for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton would be well received and the donations would start to pour in. I thought how easy, people agree to donate $.25 (25 cents) per point their team scored and then after the game visit http:\/\/main.acsevents.org\/goto\/jdogg2 and make their donation. I asked if their team was not playing that they donate $5 or if their team didn’t score at least 20 points that they would donate $5. I thought in taking action and promoting this concept that people would jump on board and the donations would simply flow in. \u00a0Boy was I mistaken I found out that many who profess to be doing well on social media are sometimes the excuse makers who are putting on a facade. After I got over my initial disappointment I began to meditate and I realized tat those who are going to participate and donate will do so and those meant to be involved will be. As soon as I turned back to my spirituality I realized that whatever money comes in at http:\/\/main.acsevents.org\/goto\/jdogg2 is a blessing. When I stopped focusing on all those who did not participate and started to show gratitude to those who did participate I felt better and realized that one must check the expectations at the door.<\/p>\n

As you check \u00a0the expectations at the door \u00a0you begin to experience more joy as you allow things to flow and accept that not everyone will resonate with your message but the ones who do will support you. In checking our expectations at the door we allow ourselves to be open to receiving the messages that GOD wants us to hear and then we are able to take action and see what comes about. \u00a0In all we do we must change our perspective and be grateful for the chances we had to be of service and value and the lessons that we learned by taking action. I learned that perhaps Facebook and Twitter are not the best places to promote a project like POINTS FOR THE CURE or Fundraisers maybe it is better to go out into the community and share the message directly with the people. \u00a0I often say we never know who we will meet when out in the community and what doors may open. In the spiritual awakening process it is important to get out and share our journey as it might positively impact someone’s life.<\/p>\n

Spiritual Awakening: Tools For Leaving Expectations At The Door!!!<\/h2>\n

The first step is to not expect anything and allow GOD to deliver. I had been volunteering as an announcer with The Lauderhill Broncos, a Pop Warner Football Team, and I never asked to be compensated for my services then one day I showed up and they gave me money as a token of their appreciation, They continued to do this at the games I announced this year. I was doing Shout Outs For The Cure one game and the president of the league gave a $100 donation. When I didn’t expect anything I got everything as I raised $205 for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton that day. \u00a0The key is to detach from expectations.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Books such as these and those available through The Hay House Link on this page and Sources of Wisdom Book 2 are excellent resources to help you detach from expectations. \u00a0The main thing to remember is to apply what you read so that you will enhance your personal and professional life.<\/p>\n

Keeping quotes and reminders about detachment with you will serve you in not expecting anything so that you can be open to receive everything.<\/p>\n
