Have you ever felt as if you are beating your head against a wall?  You repeatedly try to reach a goal but you never seem to achieve it.  Instead, you are struggling rather than moving forward and achieving your goals with grace and ease.

You are not alone.  Unfortunately, the struggle to move from what we don’t want to what we do want is a fundamental struggle for many individuals.  Believe it or not, it is very common for people to struggle against what they want and to actively limit their good. In order to have what you want, you must be willing to end the struggle and move into action.  Your success is dependent on your ability to reach your goals and achieve them.

 The easiest way to move from “stuck” into action without struggle is to be authentic and in alignment with your authenticity.  Authenticity means that you are connected to your core and that your desires are a true reflection of your inner self and soul.

The Meaning of Alignment 

Alignment means that your entire being is in agreement with the goal you want to achieve.  For example, you come home from work one evening and you are very tired.  But this evening is your workout night.  You sit on the couch and actually have to talk yourself into getting into your gym clothes and heading off to the gym.  What you did in convincing part of yourself to go to the gym when you really wanted to rest on the couch is called alignment.  You got yourself into alignment with the idea and intention of going to the gym no matter how tired a part of you felt. 

To end the struggle and successfully achieve goals, all parts of you must work together for manifestation.  That means all bodies, mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual, must be in agreement concerning a goal.  There can be no doubts, limiting beliefs, or attachments.  The following describes a process you can use to do an authenticity check concerning your goals and bring yourself into alignment with your goals.

Step One - Create a Peaceful, Serene, and Nurturing Space for Yourself

Creating a peaceful and nurturing environment for yourself is crucial when it comes to fostering alignment with your goals. Find a space that brings you a sense of comfort and security, whether it's a cozy corner in your home or a tranquil spot in nature. Take a few moments to settle into this space and embrace the quietude it offers. With a pen and paper within reach, allow yourself to engage in a period of introspection focused on your goal.

In this serene setting, let your thoughts flow freely and delve into the depths of your aspirations. Reflect on your desires, motivations, and the path you envision for yourself. Write down any insights, inspirations, or ideas that arise during this contemplative process. By channeling your thoughts onto paper, you can give them tangible form and better comprehend the intricacies of your intentions.

Step Two - The Authenticity Check

Take a moment to connect with your inner self and genuinely inquire whether the goal you've set is truly appropriate for you to pursue at this particular juncture in your life. Listen closely to the whispers of your intuition and trust the response that arises within you. If it resonates as a resounding "yes," then you can confidently proceed to the next step, knowing that you are aligned with your authentic path.

However, if the answer from within suggests otherwise, view it as an invitation to delve deeper into your soul's desires. By acknowledging this response, you transcend the confines of the ego and tap into the wisdom of your higher self.

Let go of any superficial or ego-driven desires, and open yourself up to discovering a goal that is more in alignment with your soul's purpose. By doing so, you invite a profound transformation where your goals become more genuine, meaningful, and aligned with your innermost aspirations.

Through this process of introspection and soul-searching, you transcend the limitations of the mind and allow the essence of your being to guide you. By heeding the calling of your soul, you embark on a journey of authenticity, where your goals reflect your deepest desires and contribute to your overall growth and fulfillment. Embrace this opportunity to align with your soul's yearnings, and watch as your goals become a true reflection of your authentic self.

Step Three - Alignment

As you continue your journey toward alignment, it's time to establish a connection with each aspect of your being. Remain in your serene and comfortable space, and begin by engaging in a conversation with your mental body. This step will be repeated for each of the bodies—mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional.

Inquire whether your mental body is willing to align itself with your chosen goal. This question aims to uncover any blocks or limitations residing within your mental body that may hinder your progress. If the response is affirmative, move on to the next body without delay.

However, if the answer is no, it's important to engage in a compassionate dialogue with this part of yourself. Initiate a conversation and inquire about the reasons behind its hesitation. Ask open-ended questions, such as why it's unwilling to align with the goal and what it would take to establish that alignment. Often, fear or insecurity underlies this resistance. 

Assure this part that it is taken care of and safe, dispelling any concerns or apprehensions it may hold. Have an open and honest conversation, providing it with the reassurance and support it needs to align with the authentic goal. Once you have gained the willingness of all your bodies, express gratitude for their support in manifesting this authentic goal. Affirm your alignment with the goal and your unwavering intention to bring it to fruition.

By engaging in these dialogues and fostering understanding among your different bodies, you create a unified front that paves the way for the manifestation of your goals.

Remember 

By completing this process, you have created an authentic goal and brought yourself into full alignment with this goal.  You can now move forward without struggle because all blocks have been removed.  Success shall be yours.
