How Often Do You Just Trust?


This month in the Inspire Your Inner Journey program, we are focusing on trust. A simple word – trust – but sooooo powerful. When is the last time you allowed yourself to just trust, whether it be trusting in the power of the Universe, trusting in yourself or trusting in a loved one?

If you read nothing else, read this: Learning to entrust your concerns and un-sureties into the care of the Universe is one of the most exhilarating and effective steps you can take in your life. Hands down, it is the most important realization I have had.

Think about the comparison between you and the Universe. The amount of knowledge you have can never come close to that of Universal knowledge. The next time you find yourself struggling because you don’t know what decision to make or you can’t imagine how things will work out, hand it over to the Universe. It’s not always for you to figure out! The Universe knows how to make it happen.

Your responsibility is to open yourself up to the signs the Universe sends you. To illustrate this, let’s look at a woman who is struggling to know what to do about her job. She is miserable in her career but can’t imagine what else she would do and she fears making a move that could fail. After learning about trusting the Universe, she hands over this issue to the Universe. The next week, as she is walking to her car, the wind blows a newspaper into her face. She pulls it away, looks at it, and is instantly intrigued with the article on the top page about business coaching. She takes the newspaper home so she can read the article in depth.

In this example, the woman was open. Instead of pulling the newspaper off her face in frustration, she stopped to look at it. The Universe WILL present you with opportunities to find the answers you seek IF you open yourself up.

Journaling Exercise: For our journaling exercise this week, write down an issue, frustration, fear or anxiety that you have been struggling with. Turn it over to the Universe and then note down each day any signs and opportunities that come your way. If you are open, you might very well be pleasantly surprised at what you discover!
