Being Right, Being Perfect, Being Wrong! #inspiration #greglouganis #lifepurpose #spiritualadvice #perfectionism

Even a broken clock is right two times a day. The only difference between perfection and having faults is your acceptance of either. The incredible Olympic diver, Greg Louganis, said about his life with his difficult coach (paraphrased): even though every day he forced me toward perfection and humiliated and pushed me to my limits, I would never be the diver I had become. Even still, as I’m sure Greg feels now, perfection didn’t make him happy or complete his soul… His moment of power came when he hit the diving board, got low scores, and bled into the pool drops of his imperfection, which led him to a life that changed the world forever. He came out of the gay closet and shared his incredible story about being HIV positive. His perfection as a diver left people speechless, but his imperfection changed the way the world thinks!

I consider perfection daily. My dad forced our entire family toward perfection. As a result, I worked very hard to be the one to whom he never aimed his fiery darts. So, that meant being flawless daily! I was the perfect son. I never got in trouble, never smoked, drank, always got straight A’s, and said the right things. Even so, things didn’t always go my way. As we all know, perfection is an illusion.

I remember after getting a 4.0 throughout high school, I had a deviated septum operation that took me out of school for three weeks. During that time I had to make up a great deal of schoolwork while I was very sick. As a result, I got two B’s on my report card that term, which made me go from being first in my class to fourth. I was absolutely, utterly devastated. I begged the two teachers to change my grades, to let me do extra credit to change my grades. One teacher acquiesced, the other didn’t. So, as a result, the perfection I worked for my entire high school career, went from number one to number three!

I sat with the feeling of losing what was mine for years. I thought, for too long, if I’m not perfect in every way, I won’t be liked, I’ll lose what’s mine, and I’ll never attract anyone to my life who is worthwhile. So, I spent many years sword fighting with the wind.

The truth is you have to TRUST YOUR HOPES, NOT YOUR FEARS.

As for perfection, if you can’t hide your faults: Paint them chartreuse!

One Simple Step to Get Inspired Daily! #inspiration #lifepurpose #destiny #meditation

A friend asked me how I get inspired to write so many books. Without much hesitation, I said, “From my meditations.” He looked at me quizzically, because he didn’t understand how sitting quietly could inspire anyone. He said, “When I meditate, I spend most of my time trying to quiet the thousands of thoughts that keep trying to bother me. So, I guess, I’m not really meditating, right?”

I’m not one to tell anyone he is not meditating correctly. If someone even takes a moment from her day to sit quietly and breathe, she is one step closer to Nirvana and, also, mental clarity and, yes, inspiration too. I look at meditation as a time to recharge my mental and spiritual battery. If I don’t get my one or two hours of meditation in the mornings, I’m not as inspired, compassionate, or even happy for the remainder of the day.

I think of meditation as a time that spirit downloads information, thoughts, ideas, and direction into my mind. I don’t have to be adept at it for this to happen. I simply have to show up and take the time—DAILY. You don’t have to believe that your cell phone is going to download or upload information to the computer when you hardwire it. But, the devices share the appropriate information, anyway, no matter what your belief. All the transfer of information took was your trust that you had to plug the wire from the phone into the computer daily to make the transfer.

Alas, as a result, what happens during your day, even without you understanding or computing that data has been received, the energy of Spirit submerges into your mind and begins to decode itself.

You may notice small signs or affirmations of information during your day. You may see a bird that was present in your meditation or a colorful ship. Because spirit and mind work in symbols, you may not get the significance of what you envisioned during the meditation. As I tell my clients, try not to use your deductive mind to unravel your meditation, because that will take you out of the dream and into your awakened mind. For me, it’s like watching Tele Mundo for two hours. I can sit in front of the television for a long time not understanding a word of the Spanish dialogue. But, eventually, I get some of the symbols and the intent of what I see before me. The more I watch it, the easier it is to begin to understand, even if I’ve never taken a Spanish lesson in my life.

Our human minds have a way of processing spiritual data that is beyond our understanding. This is faith. However, you will never understand how completely inspired and empowered you can be by the time you invest in meditation, unless you let this information into your mind and life.
