It is said jump, and the net will appear.

Sometimes it does, and sometimes you fall flat on your face—but you live.

Finding the courage to take risks is easy when met with positive results. It’s harder to take a chance, fail, and learn how to get back up.

It’s frustrating to adjust and try again.

Again, and again, and again.

This continuous defeat is how people get cynical.

Don’t go there!

It’s not that you made a mistake or shouldn’t have jumped.

It’s that you have a more complex assignment.

The assignment entails overcoming the stuff that comes up amidst failure. An example might be the voice that wants to reinforce your failure story.

The one that says, “Here is proof that I’m not cut out for this, that I’m no good.”

Transforming this voice is your work. Once you see it, you can begin unraveling its narrative.

You can shift from “I’m no good” to “It must make sense. I am learning what I need to learn, and I will figure it out.”

Your purpose is an experiment.

You’re trying things out, seeing what works and what doesn’t. It’s not failure—it’s feedback.

Keep experimenting, keep growing, and keep going.

You control your effort, not the timing, and most certainly not the lessons.

The reason you live your purpose is growth, not success.

When I started in 2015, I thought things would happen fast and that I could just “think and grow rich.”

There is truth to having a supportive mindset, but I found that the real spiritual journey is not about manifesting what you want. It’s about becoming who you are.

In that process, we must un-become everything we are not—that’s the hard part. We have conditioning and past karma to work through.

Living our purpose becomes a vehicle to work through these blockages.

Of course, there are moments of bliss, synchronicity, and magic—but we shouldn’t get trapped in “good vibes only.”

Awakening to purpose is a hero’s journey.

The path of Love will bring up everything that is unloving within you.

Spirit wants to express itself through you. It will find the blocks within and give you the experience to transform them.

Spirit doesn’t want you to be successful—it wants you to be free.

Some people’s assignment involves easy success, and others, failure after failure.

In this way, your purpose becomes the growth that happens as you seek your idea of “success.”

You have a dream for a reason.

The paradox is we accept life's suffering while doing all we can to ease life's suffering.

Your dream is how you bring your way of relieving suffering to the world. Whether through the movie you produce, the book you write, or the students you teach.

You are playing your part in the cosmic dance. When you align with your dreams, you’ll find you aren’t "doing" anything—you are being done.

We must continue trusting, even when we don’t see the results.

I'm reminded of the biblical verse:

"Walk by faith, not by sight."

We must meet God halfway.

We can’t know it will work out before we take the chance. (If it’s certain, it’s not growing you.)

Courage is your companion. Make friends with it.

Keep your faith, even when unsure you’re on the right path. Continue moving with purpose towards your dream.

Leap, and the net will appear. But remember, the net won’t always be comfortable.

Continue taking chances, and continue learning your lessons.

Part of my purpose is to share my experiences and lessons along the way.

I hope they’re helpful to you.
