The Power of Determination

 Instead of worrying about what the future will bring, put your whole heart into everything you do. 

Have you been feeling exhausted and overwhelmed? I sure have. I've been contemplating the 9th Gene Key, which is the Gene Key of the week, to explore the reasoning behind these patterns. You can listen to Richard Rudd's transformative free audio on the 9th Gene Key HERE through December 3rd. This Gene Key is all about the path of determination to transform inertia into invincibility. 

What I love about this Gene Key is that it's translation is known as "The Taming Power of the Small." So what does that mean? Inertia refers to a sort of paralysis we face when we feel overwhelmed by the path ahead. Instead of viewing our journey as an adventure, we see it as a mountainous trek that feels impossible to climb. Can you relate?

I love how the Gene Keys come alive in our lives through our contemplation. As a single mother of an energetic toddler and an entrepreneur, some days feel magical and exciting. At other times, I wonder if I'll ever find my sanity again! Life can feel like that at times. We may get bogged down by the endless to-do lists and tasks that we don't have the time or space for and suddenly it's like all the energy has been zapped out of us. Instead of feeling joyful and ready to take on the world, we go into victim mode and get stuck in complaining about what's not here yet and wonder how we will ever be able to accomplish it all. 

This has been a challenging week both collectively and individually. I've been noticing myself feeling down and losing my focus. All I could see yesterday was a mile long list of things to take care of and a little girl that wanted all of my time. I witnessed myself shutting down and feeling the weight of worry and fear. Then I tried a different approach. I put my computer down and sat on the floor to play with my daughter. I became present and focused on her and pretty soon there was no more room left for idle thoughts. Later on, I returned to my list of things to tackle and found one solution at a time. I even got a chance to rest. 

Life is made up of a series of moments. We have a choice to use those moments for magic or fill them up with fear. Instead of worrying about what the future will bring, put your whole heart into everything you do. Make every action matter, no matter how small. Make your meals with love. Drive with love. Pay your bills with love. Clean your house with love and work with love. 

I get it, sometimes breaking out of our cycle of fatigue can feel daunting. But remember, all you have to do is take it one step at a time. Taming the small is a practice of intentional action that will transforms every ordinary step into an opportunity for mastery. Before you know it, those difficult beginnings will pave the way to greater ease, flow and prosperity.

The power of determination is all about making the choice to live with vision. What is your higher purpose? What is your higher ideal for life? Contemplate on these questions and ask how your life can become a prayerful embodiment of purpose in everything you do. When you follow your heart, the momentum of the whole universe will get behind you. 

"So whatever your difficulties in life, bring your attention and determination into the small everyday local details and make your changes there. That’s the foundation of magic, the transmutation of the small."

— Richard Rudd 

You don't have to do it all today. You just have to put all of you into this moment now. The small changes will add up to big blessings and before you know it, you will have arrived.
