True peace lies only in being oneself. You can be yourself in every single moment you exist. Enjoying what shows up in life and being in the present moment is where we find true power and creativity.
As Mike Dooley says in his new book Infinite Possibilities, life is about fun and growth. If there is something we are doing and it is not for fun or growth, we may want to take a deeper look at it. Are we trying to feel powerful or important…are we trying to prove something…are we trying to get happiness from something outside of us? We cannot “buy” or “get” happiness because happiness is what we naturally are when we have inner peace. When we try to “get” happy from something outside of us, we soon find it does not last. Happiness and inner peace are inside jobs.
Life is an opportunity to have fun, be creative and expand our consciousness.
We take to the grave, clutched to our hands…only what we have given away.
