This Week………. BE EXTRAORDINARY!!
Anthony Robbins once said: “Why live an ordinary life when you can live an extraordinary one?”.
I guess that makes sense to most people.
But I feel most people miss the truth of the suggestion and instead think it means being outrageously successful in whatever work they undertake or unbelievably abundant financially or amazingly fortunate in love or in the ability to travel or indulge their pet fantasies.
Such lives might well be extraordinary.
But I am speaking of something far deeper and richer and fulfilling.
Be extra ordinary.
Super ordinary.
So ordinary that ordinary ‘ordinary’ seems totally extraordinary!!
Right now you may think I’m ready for the looney-bin.
But I’m not.
The multitudes of people who wish, yearn and crave the extraordinary are well ahead of me in the queue.
That’s because the extraordinary – for most people – is seen as a welcome escape from the ordinary.
Yet the truth is the exact opposite.
Instead of being reluctantly ordinary we need to become extra ordinary.
And to do that we have to undertake one momentous act and put aside our ego.
It’s our ego that wants more of what he’s got, she’s getting and they have…..
It’s our ego that says we’re not good enough just as we are.
Why did they win the lottery?
Why did she prefer him?
Why did he get that promotion?
How come they can afford to take ocean cruises?
It’s our ego that says the Divine is unfair and we’re missing out on the really important things of life.
Are we?
Are we missing out on the truly important gifts of life?
Can we hear the birds sing their melody?
Can we watch the sun rise shining golden in the azure sky?
Can we feel the warmth of love’s embrace?
Can we sense the touch of deep friendship?
Can we breathe with gratitude the air?
Can we taste with sweet delight the fruit of the earth?
Can we gaze upon wide vistas that take our breath away?
Can we walk this wonderland?
Can we flow with gratitude for the body we are gifted?
Do we truly recognise the mystery of life itself?
Do we live each day with grateful thanks?
Is the ordinary enough for you?
It seems to be enough for the Divine for that is how you were created.
Ordinary.
So delight in the ordinary so much that you find your everyday joy and fulfilment for the extra ordinary and then there’s a good chance that your life will unfold in extraordinary ways…….
Blessings,
Peace Be Within You!
