Believing is Seeing

It is absolutely true that it's not about the destination, it's all about the journey. What I really love about working with the law of attraction (I really love it usually in hindsight, I should mention) is that you really don't need to see very far in front of you. We need to be crystal clear about what it is we want and work to remove the barriers to receiving (see my Inspiration in Action: A Woman's Course in Happiness); we need to release the need to control and/or be attached to the outcome and voila the law of attraction has something to work with. Mainly we need to get out of our own way and enjoy the journey.
I started working on writing a book going on six years ago now. I was fortunate enough to meet several like minded women who were enthusiastic about meeting once a month for almost two years, to explore what are now the principles of my upcoming book Inspiration in Action: A Woman's Guide to Happiness. We brought open minds and open hearts to our monthly gab fests and left excited about our lives. We all learned from each other and we all taught each other something. It was an amazing experience that I cherish.
Once the meetings came to a natural ending, it was up to me to get the book written. I was working full time in a rewarding and demanding job as a television host/producer. I would approach the book when I had  the energy to give and I was practicing the principles, making sure that what I was writing about actually worked.
My plan for the book was to self-publish and do some courses and public speaking about the eight principles that now govern and guide my life. My secret fantasy was to quit my job in a couple of years, when the book was completed and take on the next chapter of my career. I was clear in my imagination about what I wanted and I don't remember telling a soul. I released the dream and carried on.
Nobody could have predicted how the opportunity to leave my job would show up. First there was a fire that destroyed our Newsroom and the television station I worked for was forced to relocate in a building that didn't have room for the production facilities for our program. So my partner and I worked with our editor in a rented edit suite in another part of town and I had a desk at home. Almost two years later, we were brought into the building just a few months before huge change in the company's business model. All staff members were offered a reasonably generous severance package and I accepted.
I am now happily writing and polishing my book, doing public speaking about the principles and in about a month I'll be teaching an eight week Course in Happiness. I'm also doing freelance on camera and voice work. I'm telling you this journey is amazing and I'm not concerned at all about the destination.
