Goals! Bullsh1t?

I would like to thank the Universe for taking me into this thinking loop as well as Angela for putting me on the spot from our last coaching session, you had me questioning my goals at the end of it all ;-)!

So I am now in this loop of Inspired Action vs Motivated Action. This theme has become rather strong within me so I going on the notion that it needs a space to be expressed. As I was going about my business getting ready to get to work today, this notion of:

"Setting Goals for oneself is such Bullsh1t!!!!!!!!!"

was spinning in my mind!

We live in a society where being goal orientated is the name of the game to success. It is working towards some tangible end point and thus we are motivated to work, push, go beyond our limits to reach this tangible end point. Now for me, it has been an empty experience of late. My promotion, my past relationships, my material achievements, even my obvious weight loss!!!!!

I would be thinking that all that accomplishment would have me smiling and saying YEAH BABY, BRING IT ON! But actually not, I am feeling "Oh well, if I can do this without even much hard work, just imagine what I can accomplish when I actually do!" And then comes the work to motivate for a tangible consequence and so the vicious cycle begins!

So we at this point! Let's start giving a F#$#K and moving towards inspired action! So it demanded further unpacking and when I dig a bit deeper, I come to the following notion!

It is really all about the feeling at the end of the day!

What is it that we want to feel and vibrate with at the end of the day? Because once we tune into that, goals for me is surpassed by livin the dream!

I have found lately, that when I am living and caught up in that feeling of bliss, content, gratitude and love, goals are the furthest thing from my mind and heart. Living the moment, trusting that all is safe and ok, and enjoying what is in front of me is the name of the game. Positive consequence is all a by-product and not even part of the mind & heart equation!

Goals for me at this point are too practical and scream get motivated to get a consequence or avoid a consequence! And yeah, I can believe how good some us have become at it. Our professions, society, media, close relationships, family etc. There is some element that leads us to set goals and motivate ourselves to achieve them!

I am sorry but I am looking for magic and burning on pure passion / love / source energy!!!!!!!!!!! There is a magic, a world of possibilities, no constraints, an open heart and being limitless! That is the space I believe we should be living and operating in, or at least a NORMAL day for me!!!!!!!!!

So for now, my jury is out on that! I know deep down for sure there is a balance between the magic and goals way of livin! Interested to know if there is some input out there on your take of goals vs livin the dream?

I am very interested to hear / read...................................................................

Till next time! Mwah!
