“How do we nurture the soul? By revering our own life. By treating it as supremely important. By reaching for the best within ourselves. By learning to love it all, not only the joys and the victories, but also the pain and the struggles.”
Nathaniel Branden

“Nourishing the soul is the process of drinking at the life stream, coming back to one’s true self, embracing the whole of one’s experience – good, bad, or ugly; painful or exalted; dull or boring.”
Jon Kabat-Zinn

What we are really doing when we are setting goals is directing our faith. Having directed faith means having a heart-felt specific desire, coupled with a deep and abiding trust in the goodness and generosity of God, and therein lies the magic and power of setting our goals.

It has been said, “where we are tightest, there we need stretching.” The Law of Life is exacting. It provides, with uncanny precision, just the growth that each one needs. To us is given a choice; we can struggle with the problem, railing at Life for sending it, or we can bless the growth that it contains and set about to find the hidden Truth that will unlock the door to the perfect solution. It is like a jig-saw puzzle; once the missing piece is found, the other pieces fall into place. The finished picture emerges.

The first step to be taken in anything we wish to do is to seek divine assistance. To ask God to go with us and work with us, and to enter into such perfect spiritual harmony with God that we can feel His supreme power through and through – that is the first and most important, be it work pertaining to body, mind or soul.
