I find it keeps me alert to whatever messages are meant to come my way. Kathy – I’ve also discovered that when I am less rigid with my goals I am more open to opportunity.

Isn't it wonderful how something comes along just when you need to hear it? I love planning. I also love it when the universe sends me something bigger and better than I had ever planned for! The willingness to let go of my best ideas and plans is a true act of faith for me. I welcome the opportunity to practice..... How thought provoking.

I can always find a hundred reasons not to follow through on many of the ideas I have. The key is to "be impulsive in the direction of positive change". Have to say I agree, David.

I decided this week to see if I can get any folks to give alternative opinions. Thought it might spark something during the hot summer months. Good point about balance indeed. I still have to say (to Brenda's point) that once I leaned more towards action and the present moment I started seeing some fun and exciting changes take place. Thanks Katherine for the post.

There is only so much I can do about the past and the future. I somethimes forget this when it comes to business matters. However, even my business decisions are present moment with an eye on the future. I like the saying, "The past is history, the future is a mystery and today is a gift, that is why they call it the present." Just what I needed to hear! Not sure who wrote the quote? David,

I am impulsive and that can lead to all the wrong actions which is why I think I was often a FAT head. Someone who Felt, Acted, then Thought OMG; and EFT's motto is Feel, Think, Act. Thinking is deciding what to do and even in a room filling with smoke thinking for only a few seconds can save your life. Ahhh, nice, but the middle way is probably better.
