Willingness

T hrough the prosperity and spiritual coaching that I am doing I have noticed a common thread in several of my coaching clients.  For the most part they have clarity on what they want to create and experience in life, however for reasons known only to them (or not) they are unwilling to do what is required to bring it about. This might seem like a contradiction, someone has the desire for a specific life experience but they are unwilling to do what would allow them to enjoy that experience.  I believe if we all were to look back on our own lives we would find opportunities that we did not act upon because of our unwillingness, even though we had a strong desire for the experience those opportunities offered.

So consider where you are now within your life experience and how you would like it to unfold from this point forward, consider your willingness to make it happen. That’s right, are you willing to experience all that you desire? Are you willing to do what is necessary to bring it about? Sure you might have the desire which brings about the opportunity however it is our willingness that makes it happen. We all have many experiences in life that we desired but for any number of reasons were unwilling to do what was necessary at the time to create it. Unless we have a willingness to do what is necessary for what we desire it remains unfulfilled potential.

Willingness comes from our depth of passion for life and how we want to experience it. It is about embracing our potential, releasing limiting beliefs and going after all life has to offer. It is an inner knowing, an acceptance of what we are capable of experiencing, an expectation of the experience and then experiencing it.

Willingness contains no reluctance. Everything necessary to bring about the desired experience is done joyfully, even if it makes us uncomfortable.  Some will say the sacrifice involved is too great a price to pay and yet when our passion runs deep enough there is no sacrifice. Far greater value is placed on that which we desire than the perceived sacrifice necessary to bring it about.

And finally, willingness is being available and receptive to our inner guidance, trusting that our true self will never lead us astray. For most this means becoming vulnerable to what we cannot see or touch. It is being open to new ideas, new information and in general a new way of thinking. Willingness is accepting that what we see as truth today might not be tomorrow. It is letting go of what has not, and does not serve us in our desire for richer, more rewarding life experiences to that which does. Willingness in essence is living from imagination (potential) not memory.

We demonstrate willingness by taking appropriate action towards that which we want to experience. It is in this demonstration that amazing things begin to happen. It is when the Universe conspires to make all we desire come to pass.
