Drop your goals

Whenever we set goals we insinuate searching for something we haven’t yet. Goal-setting is the strategy of focusing on lack instead of abundance, detesting the beauty of the pathway and each moment’s noteworthiness.

As soon as we set a goal it becomes crystal clear that the pathway itself isn’t 100% in alignment with our Heart’s fulfillment, because any goal comes along with at least a breeze of attachment to Time and discipline. Discipline is defined by potential outcome as the exclusive motivation to keep us on track with the execution of an occupation which is against our Heart’s passion.

Yet goal-setting’s lure to achievement is a farce as well, for once attained, the ego’s everlasting discontent tries its best to distract us from absorbing the splendor of our creation, instead longing for the immediate set of new goals which again tempt us with illusionary satisfaction.

Heart-based work doesn’t require goals, for it is endowed with the unquenchable source of passion capable of creating a Universe of stellar Self-containment that instantly remunerates us with effervescent Joy. A Joy the ego’s illusory enticement will never be able to emulate due to its discontent nature’s relentless lookout for the fly in the ointment.

The ego’s denigration of the present moment’s feeling,
will eventually make for our Heart’s squealing,
Only once we wake from the camouflage with which we’ve been dealing,
inherent Truth becomes appealing:

When we follow our ego’s hankering for the Illusion,
it will entail our Happiness’ exclusion.

So drop your goals.

Much Love and Light,

Alex
