Most of us maintain goals or a purpose in life. We believe we’re participating in the game of life. We anticipate that if we stick to our plan, we will achieve our goals. Sometimes events occur that we cannot anticipate like being fired from our job, getting divorced or not being able to make our bills each month. The game we’re playing isn’t always fun, and at times of adversity we look to a Higher Power to bring it back to being fun.

It is not the job of our Higher Power to make us happy; however, it is the likely job of our Higher Power to get us through our difficult times. Our Higher Power is always there to guide us, not to create miracles.

We are created by our Higher Power, connected to our Higher Power and connected to everyone else. Each time we act, speak or decide upon an action, our actions affect all others in the universe with our energy. Our Higher Power is there to guide us…to put us “on track” when we’re lost. We talk to our Higher Power through our energies of happiness, despair, fear, etc.

Everything living and dead is composed of energy. It can be argued that the attractions of energies in the universe account for everything from everyday coincidences in life to the rise and fall of the stock market.

When we’re feeling despair and losing at the game of life, we need to talk with our Higher Power and ask for a winning strategy. Eventually, ideas will come to you. It is at this time, that you must act with forceful energy to get “through” despair and back on track to winning. Have you trained for a marathon or other sporting event? Do you work out at a gym to get into shape? Ever feel like you’re not going to realize your goal? It’s at precisely this time that we’re losing the game. It is at this time, that our Higher Power shows us a path that we need to follow.

That is the time to change our game strategy and increase our energy…then we will encounter situations and people that we previously didn’t expect. Why? Because we’re changing our levels and paths of energies; when you don’t feel like doing that last workout at the gym or run when you don’t feel like it… that you break through to another level of fitness. You can break through to another level of “game fitness” also. When we change our actions and energies, we attract different situations to us. Just when we’re losing the game, we can readjust our strategy and win.

People with high amounts of energy attract more opportunities to themselves than people with low energy. People with high levels of energy seem to be more successful. Think of the president or CEO of your company or the mayor of your city. What kind of personality and energy do they possess? I bet that they don’t sit around and complain of being bored or depressed. They probably don’t shy away from others. They take action! They’re proactive. People that possess a lot of energy don’t wait for success to come to them; they pursue it with perseverance, determination and fortitude. They decide what they want and go after it; they don’t settle for what comes to them.
