live“ in alignment” with your best and most authentic self. In the amazing book, Ask and It is Given by Jerry and Esther Hicks, Abraham explains this internal czompass as your Emotional Guidance Scale( EGS).
Your emotions are always giving you a clue as to whether or not you are“ in alignment” with the YOU that you truly are in any given moment. The Emotional Guidance System has 22 emotions listed on it, ranging from the highest vibration emotions down to the lowest vibration emotions. If you are feeling emotions between Number 1 and Number 8, on the scale, you are in-alignment. If you are feeling emotions between Number 9 and Number 22, you are out of alignment with yourself.
Take a look at the Emotional Guidance Scale. Where are the emotions that you feel most often in a day? That will tell you if you are living your purpose or if you are off-track. Day to day, using the EGS is one of the greatest tools you can have to start to live your life“ in alignment” with your best and most authentic self. When you do, you will feel the difference!
It won’ t be easy. Your fears will want you to go back to your old ways. That’ s where the vulnerability and courage comes in. That’ s why I say“ live as your best and most authentic self, no matter what.” The tough stuff … that’ s the“ what”.
As you live in alignment with your purpose( being your best and most authentic self), your true life journey will unfold before your eyes. That’ s where you will begin to see the things you are meant to DO and the legacy you are meant to leave. That’ s when your calling will find you. I think perhaps many people confuse your“ purpose” with your“ calling”. Your purpose is who you are being. Your calling is what you are doing. And your calling, the things you do, will change as you go through your journey. But each calling, will align with your purpose. Each calling will feel like it“ fits” as the next step in your journey of living your purpose. And each calling will help you grow into an even better and most authentic version of yourself. The only YOU we have. Sometimes, when the opportunities are presented to you for what calling to do next, they will scare the crap out of you. Good. You are on the right path. And that’ s your next step! It’ s supposed to scare the crap out of you.
If your calling( your next step) is not OUTSIDE your comfort zone, then you are playing TOO small, and therefore, not living your purpose.

As you live in alignment with your purpose( being your best and most authentic self), your true life journey will unfold before your eyes.

Your next step should scare you! You should feel completely in-alignment with it and yet scared that you don’ t know how you
