It has been one week since my last day at the university and I still feel great! I can sense, especially today, my internal rhythm shifting from a frantic pace where so much seemed unattainable and beyond my control to a cooler, calmer and collected pace that is deliberate and fully mine to create. I need this new way of moving through life if I am going to exude balance and joy. It is important to me that as my preparation meets new opportunities, I stay centered. Centered in the knowledge that I am already where I want to be. I am writing, I am coaching, I am healing and I am loving. I am slowing down and I am creating. I am expanding and I am envisioning. I am doing yoga in the mornings and I am praying in the evenings. There is no where to get to. There is nothing to accomplish and no one to impress.

The gremlins of the past peak their mischievous heads and wonder, “will he let us come out and play?” Every moment that I have is not yet a self-realized moment. I still struggle with my insecurities, but the struggle is losing its chutzpah.

The first few days after I left the university, I observed myself looking at my emails on my Iphone every five minutes, wondering who would reach out to me next, desiring that I be desired. I sent my first blog to all my friends on Facebook and sat and waited to see who would respond first. I heard from a few people I had not heard from in years who expressed being moved by what I had written. Just a few but I’ll take it!

I am starting to feel so comfortable when speaking about my new life. It just pours out of me. “I want to chronicle the turning points in people’s lives when they went from fear to hope. I want to look at the hero’s journey within the context of this moment in history. I want to study the common characteristics that lead one to a purpose driven life. If 70% of Americans are not happy in their current job, then let’s hear from the 30% that are. What led them to the awareness that the moment is perfect? What series of events brought forth transformation, greater service and a realization of one’s true nature?

When you allow yourself to feel good regardless of your current set of circumstances, a vibratory pulse is sent out that catches the attention of all the forces of nature, who have no choice but to turn in your direction and give you everything you want. Your state of joy is not a dream. It is the only reality. The dream is the illusion that there are limits to who you are and what you can accomplish. In case you are thinking, “sounds great Dennis, but how are you going to replace your university salary?” If I told you that yesterday six more months of income “miraculously’ appeared, would you believe me? As Madonna says at the end of her children’s book The English Roses,” I didn’t make this up.”
