"The antidote for both the under- and overprivileged is . . ."
What everyone on Earth needs to understand before they can change their lives. Inspired by Mike Dooley's book Infinite Possibilities. Plus, a Marianne Williamson quote and more!
Everyone on Earth has different starting points.
Some have better resources, beliefs, home environments, or emotions that vibrate higher on the energy scale.
Others don't have those things and might feel stuck, like there's no hope for life getting better.
Mike Dooley says, "While all people are created equal, the love, guidance, and parenting from which they were born is not."
Regardless of where we find ourselves, there's no limit to who we can become and what we can achieve.
I hope today's post inspires something within.
1. Knowledge (and action) is power
A huge reason people struggle to evolve or change their lives is because of a knowledge gap.
Mike Dooley says anyone can rise above difficult circumstances if they know how.
Similarly, someone born into privilege and blind to the hardships of others can see through that mistake if they know how.
Often, we don't know how.
If we feel stuck or need help, this might be the problem.
Thankfully, knowledge (or perspective) is something we can gain.
Whether that's from within us or outside of us.
Then, when armed with new information or perspective, we need to implement it.
For example, I know how to eat healthy, but if I don't take action to do it, then the knowledge doesn't change my life.
If we learn more about our divine selves but keep thinking the same thoughts and doing the same things, then the revelation doesn't impact us as it could.
There are times, however, when awareness is sufficient.
For example, sometimes, recognizing quickly that we're experiencing a negative thought is enough to create change.
There's no need to journal, meditate, or go to therapy.
If we're determined to create change, we can trust that we'll know what level of action is needed each time.
2. The cure is truth
It doesn't matter how big any of our knowledge gaps are.
There's an antidote that applies to us all. Mike Dooley says:
"The antidote for both the under- and overprivileged–what the world needs most today–is truth: Knowing who we are and why we're here; knowing our power and our responsibilities...the journey to wholeness must begin within each one of us before it can manifest in the world."
This can't be stressed enough.
Everything falls into place if we can learn who we are and why we're here.
I promise you this.
My goal is that at the end of this month, you'll have both of those answers.
Once you do, manifesting, abundance, and joy will be effortless.

Good Quote
“The universe is an infinite opportunity creation machine. In every instant, the possibility of greater possibility is programmed into the nature of things. Love creates the conduit through which new possibility enters our experience, and lovelessness keeps it at bay.”
- Marianne Williamson
Good Question
Move up the ladder to higher vibrations by writing at the top of a blank page:
Do I know who I am and why I'm here? If not, how can I learn?
and see what flows from your pen. No judgment or editing.
