Okay, I have to admit the more I receive, the more doubts and self limited beliefs are thrown into the mix. I think it is part of my conditioning. I find it weird how easily I have gotten over things that have scared me for so long then there are things that look like surface issues that I just cant seem to identify.
Anyways, I have been trying to enjoy the process but not being able to see the whole road sometimes gets to me. Well I finally think I got it. I mean the reason to being and working on what you can step by step and really trusting.
Yesterday I went to go do a few things and my niece could feel that I was going somewhere and wanted to join me. I thought oh great she cant walk as far as I want to walk and I want to walk because I want to enjoy the day (intention). Well she looked so cute and I thought if I can believe she will walk she can. Okay so I got a little frustrated that she was walking a little slow, she wanted to pick every flower but I just shifted my thought patterns and started enjoying the day. I even had a few more realizations whilst enjoying the day, found $10 spoke to many friendly people and got everything I set out to do. Sometimes we need to just enjoy where we are in the present to get the full enjoyment of the end result. I was on a complete high from start to finish. It was a really great day

Great post

Learned about this new thing that is "Living in the present"... You did just what "Living in the present" is all about... I wanted to share this with you all. I can't find enough time to frame an article for that. I will do it soon.

Just a brief back ground..
Suppose you want to do something. Instead of thinking about pros and cons of that, just do it. Thats how it all works.
Living in the present is the key to "detachment"

Keep up the good work... You are on the right track...
