Press Release Body = Aside from how difficult it is to say the word, what does being faithless have to do with being successful? Isn\'t it important to HAVE faith?
Absolutely, faith is important.
It is equally important to be able to let go of a previously conceived notion of ourselves, in order to make room for greater abundance.
I first discovered this term, faithless, in Oriah Mountain Dreamer\'s book, \"The Invitation\". In it she says \"Those who can be faithless -- who can bear the responsibility of breaking an agreement with someone when the alternative is to betray themselves -- are trustworthy\". Stand in your own truth.
Let go of your belief in something if it\'s worn out it\'s purpose.
That something can be our relationships with other people. It can be our work up until now. A habit. It can simply be a \'way\' you\'ve always done something.
If we are committed to living in our truth, living an authentic life, inevitably things will change and we will need to break our previously made agreements with ourselves and others. This doesn\'t necessarily mean an ending of relationships. It may however, simply mean a renegotiation. The creation of a new dance.
Joseph Campbell\'s quote explains this beautifully, \"We must be willing to get rid of the life we\'ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.\"
It takes close examination of your life, always keeping your awareness sharp and asking, \"does this serve my higher purpose?\"
So many times, we keep on keeping on, hoping some miracle will occur to change our lives for the better. If nothing appears to be changing, look to see if you have put your faith in a particular way of doing things, rather than faith in your higher purpose.
We get comfortable. We make decisions, we get into the groove and soon the groove can become a rut and we are no longer fresh in our thinking. It becomes a greater challenge to drive out of that rut. It takes extra effort to pick ourselves up out of a deep hole and take another road.
It\'s about keeping fluid, about keeping yourself flexible and willing to change to fuel your higher purpose.
No matter what path you\'ve chosen, you need to remember who you are and discover your purpose in life. Be willing to leave your previously chosen path once you have become aware of being called in another direction.
Being faithless means being open to change, being able to let go of something if it ceases to serve your higher purpose.
Your higher purpose may not change until you feel you have attained it. The path towards that higher purpose could. By all means, remain faithful to your greater cause. Allow yourself to be non committed, faithless, in your path to get there. Blow all the doors open. Do what it takes to discover your truth. Stand firmly within it, and then speak it.
