“Now Realty” as the Springboard for Growth
Have you ever seen the acrobats on the big trampolines, or the people in the circus on the big bounding nets? And they hit that net and they spring forth into flight. Well, the moment that they hit the net, that is like the platform of your life. But it is the flying through the air that is the main event. We want you to think of your now reality as nothing more than the net that is springing you, but it is the flight through the air that is your life.
So many of you, you hit that net and then you lay on your stomach, and then you wrap your fingers and toes into it, and you put your face tight into it, and you say, I have got to face reality. And we say, you didn not come forth to face reality. You came forth to spring off of reality. You came forth to let the reality be the basis from which you take flight. And that is really what we want you to hear. We want you to be in love with the contrast that produces the desire. And we want you to milk those new desires for everything they are worth.
When you get a new desire, if it is big or if it is small, we want you to fantasize around it and give your attention to it, and take every bit of pleasure you can from the power of your mind knowing that manifestation will follow. But it is not your manifestation that we are here rooting for. It is your moment-to-moment thrill with the power of your flight.”
