Are Your Actions Resonating with your Vision?

Wings of Change
Recently I have observed an interesting development in my own progress in pursuit of my purpose. My wife and I had thought of building a center, a physical location, to offer our services. After some mentoring and self analysis we realized that, although the services are our hearts' desire, the center was not. At the time we had thought the center was our vision and goal. Now, looking back, I realize that the feelings we had for the center and all what it involved were not exciting us. The idea did not resonate with our vision of helping others.
This got us rethinking about our purpose. Our purpose statement changed only
slightly, as our desire is to teach others and help them release the old
paradigms and live their life's purpose. Now we are getting excited at our new
vision - to bring our services to others wherever it is required without the
restriction of a center. Soon our "center" will be a web portal, backed by our
upcoming book "Wings of Change", where we will offer our various services online
and offline.
So what can we all learn from this? It is important to be in tune with your
purpose. If it doesn't FEEL good then reexamine your motives and plans. Is what
you are doing exciting you? Are your plans resonating with your vision, in that
they excite you just to think of it. That feeling in the stomach is the result
of your intuition and is to be heeded. Does it feel right? Then do it. Maybe it
doesn't feel wrong, as in our case, but if it doesn't lift your level of
expectation then really sit down and analyze it. Is this what you really want to
do? Does it expand your vision?
