Ambition


def:  The desire to be anything other than what I am right now. 


There is no use trying to be what I am not right now because there is no way to do it. All I have is now…and now…and now. All I can ever be is what I am now.

I can either go with it or fight it. And fighting it just injects suffering into my world, which keeps me from fully living into the gift of what is. It diminishes my performance, my awareness, my ability to recognize opportunities, my availability to myself and others - all the things that allow me to grow. 

What will I lose if I work for no other reason, for no other cause, than to connect wholeheartedly with the gift of what is - right now - over and over again?

There is nothing to achieve except my wholehearted presence in this moment, no reward but the joy of experiencing that wholehearted presence.

When I remove ambition from my relationship with life, the world suddenly unfolds to me. Every obstacle vanishes like it never was (because, in reality, it never was).

I see that everything I’m ultimately seeking to be, I already am right now.

I am always this now. Perfectly whole and and completely unique. This is exactly what I should be right now (what’s my alternative?).

When I love what is, I align perfectly with the benevolent flow of the universe and change right on time to exactly what I should be now.

And now.

And now.
