If not You, Who?…If not Now, When?

April 11, 2014 By Anthony Diaz

I had the amazing opportunity to gather with 400 of the most incredible visionaries from around the world for four days last week. To say it was the most life changing experience of my life would be a huge understatement. The lessons I learned were transformational and I came away feeling truly blessed. There was a calling that could not be ignored…a wake-up call…a call to action to live my life with more purpose and meaning although that is what I thought I was living.

Hillel the Elder, Jewish rabbi of Babylonian origin, living at Jerusalem in the time of King Herodis, is the author of the saying “If I am not for myself, who is for me? And when I am for myself, what am ‘I’? And if not now, then when?”. The inner inquiry is profound as a general question for all of to ponder. What is the purpose of life?  Who will be called to live that life with meaning? When will a life of purpose and meaning be lived?
The question “If not you, who?…if not now, when?” rang loud and clear as I connected and went deeper at this gathering. It became not only clear what my purpose was but also what was I waiting for. There was an urgency never there before that grabbed me thrusting me into action. I committed to more integrity in my life and saying no more to any beliefs or obstacles that get in the way of living and speaking my truth. It felt exhilarating to say the least as I began a more definitive and meaningful journey.
Many of my clients recovering from their experience with divorce are confronted with questions of what’s next in their life and how to live with more purpose and meaning.  It’s a scary yet freeing place to be. Although these questions may have never been asked before, being able to start fresh with a clean slate can be quite exciting. The path from divorce need not be painful or be insufferable. There are options and solutions that will help heal the pain and be the guidance to transforming your life to one of purpose and meaning. What I know for sure is you are a magnificent being perfect, whole and complete with all the answers you need. All it takes is that first step and someone to walk right alongside you.

If not You, Who?…If not Now, When?  !n-joy my friends!  Namaste

Are Your Feelings Checked at the Door?

March 28, 2014 By Anthony Diaz

I’m sure all of us are familiar with the cliché about checking our ego at the door. It means before we enter a place of truth or going within to leave anything unlike who we really are behind so as not to interfere with that introspection.

What sometimes happens is that we also leave our feelings at the door as well. In going introspective, this can be vulnerable and quite scary. Part of us wants go deeper and may not understand the power of allowing our feelings to speak its truth…the voice of who we really are. In traveling down that road, its easy to be very heady about it and leave our feelings at the door.

This happens so frequently with those going through and healing from a divorce. It may not have been safe to know our feelings much less trust and feel them. Because of these experiences, going within is not natural and exploring our feelings even more challenging. This is a time to look at who you are and where you are in your life. It is an opportunity to write a new chapter in your book instead of reliving a sequel that didn’t work the first time around.

I invite you to take the next step in moving on from your divorce. All it takes is a willingness to check in on your feelings and not check them at the door. Just being willing to be willing is a huge first step. When you open the door to the next stage of your life, your feelings can come with you and show you the way to have the life you desire and the love you deserve. What you can leave at the door is a way of thinking that no longer serves you…don’t worry…there is no use for these thoughts anymore.
Now go out and live the life you were meant to live!  !n-joy my friends!  Namaste
