Are You Good Enough?

Why is it that we all want to feel good enough and so often we don't feel this way?

Every single person I’ve met who gets truly honest with what is beneath everything they are doing comes to see that their drive is about BEING ENOUGH.

Here is what I have to say to you and to myself: STOP.  You are enough, I am enough.  I am so frikin tired of this story, my story, our story.  We are not wounded beings in our true essence. We are loving beings, children of God, divine beings with infinite potential.

I once received a clear download from Spirit, or as NealeDonald Walsch would say, in a “conversation with God” and it was this: NOTHING (or NO THING) IS REQUIRED OF YOU.

What does this mean?  It means we don’t have to DO anything for love, for worth, for happiness. 

Trust me, a 6 figure salary and a Vice President title doesn’t make you happy.  You don’t feel like you’ve finally made it and that your parents are finally impressed with you, you just get a bit more comfort and more responsibility.  There are ridiculously poor people in other countries that are a lot happier than many of the corporate VPs I know making big 6 figure salaries.

Why?

Well they don’t walk around thinking they need to do something to be happy, to get somewhere, to make it, to prove themselves, and they aren’t caught up in the American dream that accumulation means happiness.  In fact many of them live in tight-knit communities, they are connected, they are spiritual, and they just live their lives in accordance to natural laws.  Why do animals seem so relaxed and happy?  They just are what they are - present in the moment. 

Guess what?  Being present in this moment is the only way I’ve experienced happiness and if you get present and you aren’t happy be with whatever you feel until it clears like the clouds to the sun beneath.

It’s the only way and I’m tired of doing it differently.  There is no GETTING somewhere.  We are here.  God  (aka LOVE) loves me as I am.  I can choose to love me as I am.  No one really gives a cr%p about what I’m doing with my life anyways. I just think they care or think they might love me if I change the world.  It doesn’t matter.  I am not here to save the world.  Neither are you. I am here to love myself and that’s it. It doesn’t matter if anyone else even loves me, yes it feels good but if I don’t love myself well then others’ love won’t even stick. 

We are here to grow in love for ourselves and then the natural byproduct of a full cup/being of love is to share it with others.  It’s that simple and it’s that profound and if it was that easy well there wouldn’t be wars internally or externally. 

All I have to say to you if you are a Type A, a visionary, a do good-er, a driven striver, an over-achiever, a socially conscious entrepreneur that feels the weight of the world on your shoulders: just SLOW DOWN.  You will want to throw a rock at me for saying this because I have wanted to throw them at every mentor and coach that has ever said it to me. But they were right!

It’s time to go within.  Peace starts with me. Happiness is readily available N-O-W.  The secret to having it all is believing that you already do!! If you want to achieve something, get somewhere, or accomplish a mighty project - ask yourself WHY?  If it’s because you love what you are doing and are enjoying the journey then you are on-course and I applaud you.  If you think you need to get someone, somewhere or something to be happy, think again.  There is always a new goal once you get somewhere, always something else on the to-do-list.  Life is what is happening while we plan our future full of the stuff we want.  Your gift is NOW, it’s here, it’s inside.  Stop looking anywhere else for it.  The treasure map has a big blinking light on the spot called your heart. 

You are the gift and so is your life.  Nothing else you get will bring you what you REALLY want or make you any better than you are in this moment.  I promise you this truth and I love you.  Why?  Because I know you suffer like I do, you fear like I do, and you want something in this very moment and think you’ll feel better when you have it.  You are disillusioned like I am and it’s time for us to band together and forgive ourselves for this misunderstanding.

My commitment right now is to believe, with all my strength and all my resources, that I AM ENOUGH. I AM LOVE. I AM DOING THE BEST I CAN.  When I embody this, I will be a magnet to all good because I already reside there and I will be reinforcing the enoughness and goodness in myself and all of you.

I’m on my way.  This is the first stop on the train. Please join me as a fellow traveler in this journey called life on planet Earth!
