Assalam Alaikum,
Can you believe we’re at New Years time again, already?!
Around this time of year, I always like to set goals for the coming year.
In the past, I would typically set around 10 goals in different areas of life, then try to fit them all into my life… and typically give up on all of them after a couple of weeks.
I didn’t realise it, but I had fallen into The Goal Delusion.
The Goal Delusion is the myth that you need to achieve external results and reach your goals in order to be happy, whole & complete.
This is what gets us stressed-out, overwhelmed & often leaves us disappointed by February, regardless of how much effort we put into our Goal-Setting Systems.
It is a manifestation of what I call the “Outside-In” Illusion – the illusion that feelings (like happiness, whole-ness and feeling worthy & successful), can come from somewhere other than Allah, via Thought in the moment.
Since realising this, I experienced an internal shift & 2 really cool things happened for my goal-setting:
#1: I naturally dropped many of the goals that I always thought I ‘should’ go after (but never felt great about).
#2: I became much more aligned with my heart’s truest desires & my pursuit of those real ‘goals’ became completely effortless & their achievement became inevitable.
If you’d like to drop the regular ‘goal-setting’ stuff and get a taste of real, effortless, inner-transformation, I invite you to join me for a short, powerful web-class called:

Effortlessly Transform Your Relationships, Business, Spiritual Life & Mind-Set.
Peace, Love & Blessings.
