Let Go of the How
by Story Waters
When calling your dream into reality, do not presume to know how it will come. Many of your dreams may initially appear to be impossible. If you give into this belief, then they will be impossible for the duration of that belief. Realize that not knowing how it will happen is a limit of your comprehension and not a limit of the power of the Universe. You do not need to know how your dream will be possible for it to be possible. You must simply believe that it is possible. In this way, learn not to limit the creational powers of your spirit.
By thinking you must know the ‘how’, you develop the belief that your dream could only come to you in a certain way. To believe this is to severely limit the options by which your spirit can deliver your dream into realization. Focus on your dream and feel it into being, without attachment to how it manifests. Through imagination, experience the joyous feeling of living your dream, with total belief that you can live it, and you will draw it to you.
Realize that simply thinking it will happen will not make it happen. You must feel it with all your being and that means surrender, the facing of fear, and the letting go of the limiting beliefs in which you have cloaked your identity. Start with what you can believe, what you can accept, and work outwards. In this way, you will come to realize how much it has only ever been you that has hindered the manifestation of your dream. The conditions of your reality are only ever the manifestation, and not the cause, of the state of realization of your dream. This is the taking of responsibility for yourself. Have the courage to face the cynic and pessimist in yourself; that voice which you tend to call the realist. Know that it is the idea of being a ‘realist’ that has taken away your hope, out of the fear that having hope will hurt you. For many, this may mean facing their own judgment of what they perceive as naivety.
Dream with the heart of an infant; a child that has not yet been taught by society how to limit its options. Remember the state of being where you once dwelt; where anything was possible. Know that anything is possible.
