Do you know that your approval is all that matters?<\/p>\n<p>Do you know that you are a beautiful reflection of all that is good in the world \u2013 all that is magical and amazing?<\/p>\n<p>Do you know that your love has the ability to ignite change and open hearts?<\/p>\n<p>Do you know that your soul is infinite and powerful and so, so connected to everything and everyone?

I do.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>But do you really<i> know<\/i> it? Deep down at your core? Do you really live as though you know it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Does this deep knowing override any feelings of insecurity or inadequacy or unlovability or feeling unworthy? Does it?<\/p>\n<p>Is your life a direct reflection of this deep knowing that you are enough and that you are amazing and that you are worthy and that you are loving and lovable and that you are magical and that you are here for a very important reason?<\/p>\n<p>If it is, that is absolutely wonderful and makes me so happy. It means that you do know \u2013 not just in your mind but also at the soul level. It means that you have taken your responsibility here on this planet seriously. It means that you are taking action and consciously sharing your heart and your gifts with others.<\/p>\n<p>If your life isn\u2019t currently a direct reflection of this deep knowing, it\u2019s okay. Really, it is. Because one of the things that I love most about our time here on Earth is that we have the power to change our life at any moment. If we\u2019re not happy with the way we\u2019re living, we can do something about it. If we aren\u2019t feeling empowered or joyful or that we\u2019re helping enough people, we can do something immediately to shift into living a life that feels more like the life we want to be living.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And I know that you can do this (if you aren\u2019t already). I know that you can live from your heart and in alignment with your soul\u2019s purpose. I know that you can choose to see yourself as a powerful being who is worthy of love and worthy of giving love. I know it.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Do you know it?<\/p>\n<p>I think you do.<\/p>\n<p>And now it\u2019s time to embrace it and share this deep knowing with the world.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve got this.
