Turning Adversity into Opportunity

Turning Adversity into Opportunity
Have you noticed how the current economic situation has created its own momentum of fear? Stimulus efforts (from individuals, communities or nations) seem virtually ineffective in this sea of constant, negative news feeds.  As a result, the doubts and fears people may already be entertaining tend to get reinforced.

So, what is adversity to the entrepreneur? Once understood, it can be used to inform our goals and visions. Misunderstood, it will feed our excuses and lingering doubts about what we want for our business and our life.

We can choose to see adversity as the challenge for focusing anew and learning from our difficulties. Otherwise, we will find ourselves sagging from the relentless negative reports about global economies, or even buckling under the weight of failures close to home.

Are You Becoming The Entrepreneur You Want To Be?

Are You Becoming The Entrepreneur You Want To Be?Yes? Here’s what you’ll experience:
you are living in your true vision. It fits with the Consciousness of who you really are. You’re continuously shedding your old skin and developing your new personality that’s compatible with this magnificent vision of yours.

Keenly aware that your pains and failures came out of the old personality that held you back, you focus your attention on what you want, with clarity of purpose. You deeply believe the Universe will give it to you, regardless of your present circumstances, skills and knowledge.

As you become your vision, you are unconcerned as to how it will manifest. What’s more, you go about your day to day activities, knowing your evolving Consciousness is leading you to the realization of your vision. And when those momentary lapses of disbelief slip in, you don’t panic or frantically force yourself back into your vision. Instead, you use these moments as an opportunity to re-affirm your Consciousness as being the Creator. And you acknowledge these aberrations as just passing images as you travel towards your destination.

Most importantly, you feel you’ve already arrived. You have no doubt about your journey. And you are ready to live your new life. All-aboard!

My Teacher, Tulshi Sen, author of Ancient Secrets of Success for Today’s World beautifully explains how to achieve this state of being in the first audiocast here, called: Vision Must Fit Consciousness

Now, the ‘mind’ won’t accept this just because we said so, or because we forced a few affirmations its way. No. We must genuinely convince the mind. And it’s impossible to convince the mind with the mind or intellect, no matter how brilliant it may be. It takes a much more profound method to bypass the security guard of the mind to enter your heart directly.

In this second audiocast, Mr. Sen discusses exactly what is needed to manifest our vision, by showing us how to hold a vision. He explains that none of the theories of success will help us here. Only Consciousness can believe that we create something out of nothing by visioning it. To bring our vision into manifestation, we must know and believe that our vision will manifest.

As Entrepreneurs, we need to believe, and not make-believe, that if we hold a vision, it will manifest, no matter what our circumstances are, what others say, or whether it’s been done before or not. If we can conceive, believe and hold the vision, we can manifest it. All the great Masters have said so.

But how can we believe we don’t need anything else? Tulshi Sen shows us three kinds of meditation to help us do this in: Meditation For Manifestation

Entrepreneur, What Do You Really Want?

Entrepreneur, What Do You Really Want?It takes great courage to go for what you really want. And entrepreneurs seem to have plenty of it. Yet despite great intentions, most fall short of the mark.

Intentions can get tainted by what you don’t have or haven’t yet been able to secure. And for many, 2008 has been an extremely challenging year.

It’s no wonder discouragement insidiously seeped into our awareness. And we’ve all had plenty of external economic indicators bombarding us about the hard times ahead. But if we now feel we can’t have what we truly want, we’ve indeed fallen into a dangerous self-deceptive trap.

Getting Out Of Our Self-Imposed Traps

The way out is to go deep inside the core of our being and allow our hearts to speak. Entrepreneurs are courageous, so we can do this. I’m reminded that the word courage comes from the French word ‘coeur’, meaning heart. Courageous people move into the world with, in and through their hearts. We often use the expression, ‘take heart’, in other words, be encouraged.

There’s no better time, than when we find ourselves deeply challenged, to look at what’s really important for our lives and businesses. I can think of no better way to help us search our inner void, where all our treasures are found, than be inspired through the words of Tulshi Sen, author of Ancient Secrets of Success for Today’s World. He shows us how we can embrace the New Year with courage and choose the life of our own design in his audiocast, Tulshi Sen’s New Years Message . Let this be our Year of Transformation.
