talks you out of it, the dream that makes you feel like you can fly. That dream is your true desire, and it is connected to Source.
Supporting Your Desires Through Action
Your inner Source-connection can show you your deepest, truest dreams and desires, but it can’ t make them happen for you. You need to do that by changing your beliefs, thoughts, actions, and habits.
We live in a free-will universe, but there are laws that rule how it operates. These laws are neutral; they are neither good nor bad. Everything in our universe is energy. You can attract energies that nurture your desires, fulfill you, expand you, and touch others in positive ways. Or, you can attract energies that work against you, and move you further away from what you really want.
In order to attract the energies that contribute to the fulfillment of your desires, you need to understand what your desires actually are. True desires, which are tied to your greater purpose, your authentic self, and your inner Source, are often different than( or even counter to) the desires of your ego. When you are not in touch with your inner Source, you can end up chasing material possessions or temporary pleasures, believing that they will buy fulfillment. But satisfying these desires won’ t make you happy for more than a moment at a time; in fact, by feeding them, you may find yourself in a never-ending pursuit of“ the next big thing.”
How can you know if your desires are coming from your true self or your ego self? It’ s simple: when a desire emerges, ask yourself:“ Is this desire more about being, or doing? Giving, or getting?” Being and giving are usually soul desires.
Once you are in touch with your true, Source-given desires, look at your beliefs, thoughts, and habits to see if they are moving you closer to, or further away from, those desires. Ask yourself,“ Am I being what I want to attract?” For example: if more money is what you desire, are you currently being a good steward of money? Money is just a tool, after all; what you create with the money you have decides how much more you will attract. If you’ re looking for a great relationship, are you treating yourself with the love you want to receive? If you desire better health, are you truly seeking to nourish yourself from the inside out, or just eating“ right” because someone said you should?

If you want to live with the greatest purpose,
passion, and contentment, your desires have to line up with who you are at a soul level. When you are connected to that energy, you will be unstoppable. Just as Nature fills a seed with everything it needs to grow, your inner Source and true self can fill your desires with everything they need to manifest. When you quiet the voice of ego, and listen instead to the voice of Source, your beliefs will support your thoughts, your thoughts will support your actions, your actions will support your habits, and your habits will create a new reality for you every day. Everything in your life will begin to fall into place with greater ease and joy, because everything you do each day will be in total alignment with your soul’ s desires.
It sounds like a lot, I know. But, chances are, you’ ve experienced this already! Think of a time in your life when everything seemed to be falling into place. You made a good
