Defining Success and Failure
Failure is personal and dependent on your expectations. It's important to explore what living a spiritually successful life means to you. Success for one person might constitute failure for another.
Outcome Not Guaranteed
Understanding our expectations around outcome are essential to address early on as they can have a huge impact on our ability manage the challenges that present along the way. If we are clear about our expectations, then it helps us to stay true to our path and not get lost in what others demand or expect.
Facing Fear
Vulnerability can create fear and our fears can quickly derail us. How does facing fear allow us to move forward so that we live divinely inspired and transformative lives?
Being Vulnerable
The spiritual path should probably come with a warning label that would read something like this. "WARNING: Being a spiritual pilgrim often brings forward fears and the shadow aspects of yourself". Are you willing to explore these? How open and vulnerable are you willing to be?
Spiritual Practice
What we pay attention to is what will grow and develop. When we place focused attention on our soul life we begin to notice and experience our soul life more fully. It’s as if the soul looks for an invitation to participate in the everyday. What daily practices nurture the sacred?
Exploring the Sacred
When pilgrimage is approached with intention to connect with the sacred, it alters the energy of the journey. If we seek to find the sacred, we need to understand what it is that is that we find sacred. What is it that you find sacred? Discovering the answers to this question is an important part of the whole experience.
Awakening to the Call
The soul has a way of urging us forward to learn our life’s lessons. Sometimes lessons come in ways we just can’t miss – like when tragedy strikes and we have to grow a part of ourselves to get through it. But sometimes our growth comes from new opportunities, new practices, or new ideas – if we have the courage to explore them. When the opportunity, or just the idea of it, comes knocking at your door, how do you respond?
