“Every, time I paint, I throw myself into the water in order to learn how to swim.”   --Édouard Manet

Mornings can sometimes be hard. It’s that delicate time of the day when we routinely become shape-shifters, waking up and exiting the dream world to face the minutia of details that make up the life that we presently call our own.

Sometimes that’s the life we’ve always dreamed of—and sometimes it’s not.

Sometimes it’s the life we once dreamed of—in that “past life” -- before our current self began poking its fragile little wings out of their tightly spun cocoon.

Change is a natural part of life’s evolution —and we can never define ourselves today by who we were yesterday.

So what’s a dreamer to do?

When you dream of flying…

“Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly.”
                                 --- Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Fables and Reflections

Deep down, we all have some lifelong dream living inside of us — whether it’s to launch our own business, write a novel, or be that artist we’ve always thought we’d become.

Sometimes our dreams are so downright wild and crazy that we haven’t ever even told anyone about them. And sometimes we speak of them so often it’s the only thing about us anyone ever knows. But these are the dreams that define us, and resonate with our true and authentic self.

Our beautiful dreams and goals live in our conscious and unconscious mind, access them with Yoga Nidra, “physic sleep yoga”. Take flight and harness them positively whatever time of day or night. Balance on the razor’s edge, the path of sushuma and the awakening of the Kundalini. I say this is the awakening of our Positive Passion™. The awakening of our positive passion™ will prevent us from getting lost in the past and it will keep us attuned to our ever changing present self.

Even if we’re focused on our dreams, unless we stay attuned to our ever changing selves, this disconnect can find us chasing after the--wrong dreams—completely misaligned with what we really want. It can have us giving up, just when we need to push harder, and blindly persisting when we actually should stop.

As we grow and experience life’s wisdom, making big life changes isn’t always easy—even if our vision is crystal clear and our dreams well defined. That’s because before we can reinvent ourselves we have to know who we really are. We have to take stock of our strengths and weaknesses, embrace our passions and be honest about our true desires.

We have to become a Change Artist, and dip our paintbrush into our soul, and use our true spirit to paint the canvas of our lives, as we create a doorway into our minds crossing new dimensions.

The great French Impressionist Édouard Manet once said, “Every, time I paint, I throw myself into the water in order to learn how to swim.”

Reinventing ourselves, like learning how to swim, can be scary-- but the trick is to transform that fear into excitement. Excitement gives birth to vision, vision leads to action, and action builds lasting commitment.

Honest self-evaluation is also required, and the need to reassess ourselves and the realities of what’s really required to achieve the goals and change that we seek.

It’s also important to share our dreams with people who care about us and who we trust the most, because they too will be honest—and this honesty will help shed light on those aspects of ourselves that are sometimes too hard to for us see, and may be holding us back from becoming the person we’d like to be.

Reinventing ourselves isn’t always easy nor is it always smooth. Sometimes we hit resistance. This is when it’s important to stop the forward action, slow down and take stock. Resistance is the time to rest, re-evaluate, re-align, recode, recalibrate™. Resistance comes from struggling with our own limiting beliefs that hold us back and sabotage our efforts to change. The stronger the beliefs, the more unshakeable they often become, but the key is to believe in ourselves, because the first step to becoming someone new is having the belief that we actually can.

We must also learn to forgive ourselves, learn from our mistakes and gracefully move forward. Learn when not to push, and to simply let change happen. All too often we set a goal and then immediately leap into action. It’s okay to take a leap of faith when you know you are in perfect rhythm with the universe. Learning to savor each moment and value the uniqueness of the experience is being in your life and tasting it.

Whatever our age or circumstance, we’re never stuck with who we were in the past. This requires a shift away from thinking in terms of outcomes and to embrace the notion that life is really all about the journey, and there is wisdom knowing when to simply go with the flow and surf the wave of faith.
