Impact

I am an emotional guy. I am more comfortable expressing them than most men are. I feel no shame in being angry, happy, spiritual or any other emotion. I have nothing to hide. Historically, my emotions have had a downward arc. I have been more often neutral to down than in the emotionally up range.

The other day, I was doing the advanced manifestation meditation and I was very clearly told what I am expected to do on a daily basis.

• I am to read up on becoming a life coach and pursue that goal.
• I am to write the MM book and the triangle ritual paper
• I am to do things around the house from cleaning to throwing things out so I can sell this place and move on with my life. 

I am to allot a half hour a day to these tasks. I have interpreted that to mean 1.5 hours a day doing any combination of the above. Immediately, I implemented those instructions. I have been having a blast since because I have done the following:

• Hired a life coach under the theory that if I want to be one, I ought to have gone through the process.
• Hired a writing tutor/editor. I see her biweekly
• I have met the above goals every day since.

My energy levels are through the roof. There is a smile on my face. I even boogie a little walking down the street. The test came this weekend. I received some news that anyone in my position would find sad. In the past, such a thing would have scrambled my emotional cookies. This time, I was sad and a bit hurt. I thought about it for a while and then I thought, isn't there something I need to be doing? Boom! Back to happy mode.

Following your soul has many benefits. This is just one. 

EDIT: I am also supposed to meditate daily.
