Desired and Undesired Habits

<ul><li>Each of the prior 11 gateways lead us to the 12th and final gateway: “Serve Your World.”</li><li>Dan asks us to “Find a form of service that calls to you” that suits our abilities, aptitudes, qualities, and interests.</li><li>Every moment provides us with an opportunity to serve our world.</li></ul>

Serve Your World

<ul><li>Dar Robinson, one of the greatest modern-day daredevils, was terrified with each and every stunt.</li><li>So maybe it's OK for us to be afraid? Yes! And then we need to do what needs to be done.</li><li>Your willingness to face it squarely will determine your fate in the high country of human potential.</li></ul>

Daredevils Are Terrified, Too

Self-worth is not a thing; it is a perception. Just as a gymnast begins a routine with ten points and receives deductions for each mistake, so you began life with a natural, complete sense of worth. (Have you ever met an infant with self-worth issues?) But as you grow, you serve as your own judge, deducting points when you misunderstand the nature of living, and learning-when you forget you are a human-in-training and that making mistakes and having slips of integrity and mediocre moments are a part of life.

Discover Your Worth

<ul><li>Emotions, no matter how painful they are, are not the problem. The problem is dropping out of school or work, putting your family or duties of life on hold until such time as you can work out your emotional issues.</li><li>The heart of accepting your emotions is to do what you need to do despite what you are feeling. Accept and learn from your feelings, but don't let them run your life.</li></ul>

Emotional Meteorology 101

<ul><li>If we are the same awareness shining through a billion separate forms, then all love begins with self-love.</li><li>For the heart to awaken, it cannot exclude a single soul, including yourself. If you do not love yourself, how can you find the space to love others?</li></ul>

Love Begins with You

<ul><li>Only your actions shape your destiny.</li><li>To fulfill the promise of the second gateway, you need to know, and act upon, only three magic words: Just do it.</li><li>The first gateway is “Discover Your Worth.”</li><li>The second is “Reclaim Your Will.”</li><li>It's easy to talk about spiritual ideals, but it means nothing if we don't LIVE our truths.</li></ul>

Everyday Enlightenment: The Twelve Gateways to Personal Growth

<ul><li>If we want to fulfill our divine destiny and live consistent joy, we've gotta Carpe punctum - close the gap between what we think we're capable of doing and what we're actually doing.</li><li>Seize the moment, and live fully.</li></ul>

Carpe Punctum

<ul><li>What you believe about money will determine your effectiveness in acquiring it.</li><li>Money is neutral energy that we can use consciously as a means to circulate our values in the world-receiving energy as we give our gifts to the world and giving money as we consume products and services that support our growth and are resonant with our values.</li></ul>
