"When I think with my mind, I seek answers to my questions. When I feel from my heart, the questions dissolve into answers." ––Beth Johnson

I thought it would be appropriate to share with you a lesson I learned back in 1997 as I was struggling to get my company, Dreams Alive off the ground.

I recall clearly that I would wake up each morning and instead of wishing and hoping that the day would magically turn out better, I would sit and get quiet and ask myself: "What does my intuition tell me is the right way to go today?"

And I would receive a feeling, a vibe - like a hunch. Each morning, my Heart told me, "Keep going with Dream-Minder Paul, keep going..."

Keep in mind, I had drained my 401k account, spent all my life savings, and on some days wondered how I would even afford just lunch! But, something in me told me I was on the right track, I had NEVER felt as passionate about anything as I did about creating and sharing Dream-Minder with people to assist them in re-discovering their own genius and how to FEEL passionate about their Life's Dreams.

As I continued to trust myself that I was on the right track, opportunities would present themselves. These were not large by any means, but they kept me going... they INSPIRED me. As I allowed the Universe to provide me with these opportunities, I began to see results.

I didn't buy into my Ego's attempted anxiety game. Not that I didn't feel any anxiety, just that I listened, and watched, and observed the anxiety. As I did so, the anxiety lessened...

As the Author Paul Williams writes, "Your weaknesses are your strengths. If in fact you could fix everything you don't like about yourself, there'd be nothing left of any value."

We're now in over 75 countries––WAY BEYOND my original Dream––producing more wealth than I used to Dream about. More importantly, I'm able to contribute to causes that I believe in. I always wanted to give back. I'm blessed to have that opportunity as I write this to you. I share this with you from my Heart to inspire you to reach your greatness and not settle for mediocrity...

So, my friend, as you go through your day today, allow your emotional batteries to re-charge, take a walk in Nature and allow yourself to just BE.

Ask yourself, "What do I REALLY need today to feel passionate and ALIVE?"

Use this mini-exercise below to reflect upon what your intuition wants to share with you...

Keep this secret in mind, if it's something material, i.e. money, car, or other objects, it will only pull you away from feeling the way you want to REALLY feel.

The KEY is to get clear on the Essence of what you really want. In other words, what will having what you want REALLY give you?

If you're not clear about the answer, sit quietly, take a deep breath...
just... b - r - e - a - t - h - e and let your mind just relax...

Then ask, "What does my Heart tell me that I really need, to feel passionate and alive? And just listen...Then write down what comes to you.

As Robert Frost once said: "We all sit in a circle and suppose, while the secret sits in the center and know."

You already know... The rest is mere details...

And so it is...
