Today's Reading:

Most of us have lived two lives. Most of us have two lives the life we live, and the live life within us between the two stands resistance. 

Have you ever brought home a treadmill and let it gather dust in the attic? Ever quit a diet a course of yoga and meditation practice? Have you ever bailed out on a call to embark upon a spiritual practice, dedicate yourself to a humanitarian calling, commit your life to the service of others? Have you ever wanted to be a mother, a doctor, an advocate for the weak and helpless; to run for office, crusade for the planet, campaign for world, peace, or to preserve the environment? Late at night, have you ever experienced a vision of the person you might become the work you could accomplish the realize being you were meant to be? Are you a writer who doesn't write, a painter who doesn't paint, an entrepreneur who never starts a venture? Then you know what resistance is.

Love and Resistance:

Resistance is directly proportional to love if you're feeling massive resistance, the good news is, it means there's tremendous love there too. If you didn't love the project that is terrifying you, you wouldn't feel anything. The opposite of love isn't hate; it's indifference the more resistance, you experience, the more important your unmanifested art/project/enterprise is to you – and the more gratification you will feel when you finally do it.
