Future blessings

What would you like to change about your life? What seems to be stopping you from achieving this?

I’ve just opened my book, The Compass, at random, to find a reading for today’s blog. It opened at 130: See Beyond. Here it is:

SEE BEYOND

WHY?

The future blesses you with hindsight.

CLARITY

What is upsetting or distressing you?

What is the obstacle you see in front of you?

Can you see a way through, or around, this obstacle? Not yet? Then the obstacle will continue to block your path until you do, locking you into your blocked situation. To move ahead, see beyond your current limitation. When you look back from the future, today will look different. Hindsight delivers a clear solution. Where do you want to be? Imagine looking back from there. What do you see?

ALCHEMY PRACTICE

Imagine yourself in the future, beyond the current obstacle, living the life you have been wishing for. Add another ten years, or more if you prefer. How will life be for you then? Write a letter from your happy, fulfilled self in the future, to you at your current age. Describe your life, and express the wisdom and insight you have received during the intervening years. Don’t involve your brain much in this practice: let your gut instinct write this letter.

You’ll be surprised what you learn in foresight-hindsight!
