Recently, I received an email from somebody who is building a visionary project, and she mentioned that she feels lonely. She doesn't feel, she cannot see where the support is going to come from, where the kindred spirits are. And she asked me for some advice. Well, if you feel this way as well, then I hope this video will encourage you. I'm going to give you three steps to hopefully give you encouragement, hope and solutions on your journey. The first step is to know that there is an invisible force in your life right now that cares deeply for you, that knows the bigger picture and is always looking for ways to help you. You can call this invisible force God or your higher self or a benevolent universe, but it is looking out for you. And so the first step is to know this and to sincerely ask for help. And however you like to do it, sincerely ask for help. Okay? You can do it through prayer, through meditation, through journaling. And then step two is to take action in the world, observing how that support that you've asked for is in fact coming to you. You assume that it is on its way and that you are simply observing and looking for it. As you go out and reach out to other people, take action in the world to contact other people. Okay? Observe and assume that it's coming to you and just be looking, oh, is this the kindred spirit that I asked for? Is this the support that I asked for? Is this the strength that I asked for? Okay. And then the third step is to, as you contact people, look for a win win solution. In fact, I would say shift your mode of thinking to giving instead of getting. Okay, if you shift to giving as you are contacting others and reaching out to others, of course, giving in a way that also supports your highest vision and values, but it's got to be in support of theirs as well, then I believe you will find success. So think of these three steps, practice them, and let me know how it goes for you. Remember, you have a force that's always looking out for you. You need to sincerely ask for support. You will find it and you will have it. Be well.
