Why Focus on "The Gold?"

Funny - or not - I write this as I check the news on our nation's latest apparent cleansing - this time of our banks, in addition to our land.

As I catch the news, I hear a U.S. Senator expressing the enormous importance of Congress working together to expeditiously process a piece of Legislation necessary by next week, to save us... As I witness our state of affairs, in preparation for writing this piece, I know that this Senator's call to putting aside partisanship in order to take care of us all, is an amazing example of the power we hold - as a whole - to look beyond the polarity of our differences, and come into greater ease, through unity for our overall greater good.

Turning this to the personal level, it is true that we always have the option to get upset at the way things are going, complain and be frustrated - or not. I can attest to my own experience of that very thing, just earlier today in fact. And yet, as the master of growing-gold that I am - I always know down to my core that I must focus on "The Gold" for the immense power and importance that our very focus, holds!

"Gold" is the precious metal not only in ore, but truly, in our invisible world - the world of our emotions, friendships, business partners, decisions and much more. Gold is the spark, the light, the creative force in its purest sense really - and Gold makes itself known, all the time, when we focus on seeing it.

The light of a sparkling smile - the beauty of a flower - the power of love in our chest when greeting a person we care for. Gold is happening all around us, all the time... and I propose, that when we focus on "The Gold," we actually help it grow. It shows up more when we put our attention to it... It shows up in bigger ways, in solutions to new problems, in the ease of a relationship, in joint ventures with new business associates. Gold is everywhere - all around us - and when we focus on it, we give it more power, and in truth, it really grows because it magnetizes more Gold.

So today I propose - to myself - and to you - that we focus our sights on the Gold all around us. That even if only a brief moment - hopefully much more - we try it and see what happens, when we collectively give attention to the positive potential for things in our world. And in particular, at this moment of need for our country, that we collectively focus attention on the positive potential of our Lawmakers' efforts this coming week - of our Presidential Election this month - for unearthing new positive solutions - new Gold - as we help them by collectively coming together in our attention and focus, to know that this (storm) too shall pass... and we together have the power - to grow more Gold. To focus our attention on the Gold in our presence, in each moment, knowing that our power is enormous - as we unite our collective creative potential - that we can prevail in supporting our Lawmakers to successfully reach across polarity to collectively grow more positive Gold for us all as they create positive solutions, and find resolve.

What a time to speak of Gold? As our financial markets falter... Perhaps it is time that our immense natural resource of inner Gold - that which is available inside us all individually and collectively - find its way to the forefront of our boardrooms, town halls, families, small businesses and Congress too - as we give more attention - more power - to truly growing-gold!

I'm holding the vision that this latest storm of cleansing - not of the land but of our very financial institutions - will be swift, without undue harm, and that all things come clean, as we grow toward greater goodness for the world we are destined to become - as greater balance and harmony find their way into our lives.
