Succeeding With Intentions
I just completed the 21-day “Succeeding with Intentions” series on the HOTM meditation app and loved it. I had been using the app for daily meditations and had not realized the course was there, but I found it at the perfect time. I am a land developer, and the market has been terrible for more than a decade, but now it is coming back to life. In the meantime, I have been writing and wanted to switch my career toward being a writer even though I have never made a living as an author. I started the course hoping some magical force would assure me that my books would get published, and my initial intention was to find the best direction for starting my career. But I also had a conflict because some part of me knew this was a fantasy.
By the third meditation, it was apparent my real intention was to make money, that was what I really wanted, and without financial security I could not write. I felt so relieved I could have stopped and been happy, but something in the back of my mind kept me going. The fourth day was ‘Identify and Let Go of Distractions,’ and this showed me the entire question about career paths had been a distraction, I was only using it to avoid the fear I had about making money in the career I have been in for more than thirty years. I was shocked by this realization but also realized I needed confidence, even in something I had done for thirty years.
The next days of the course were all about support and willpower and evaluating progress and all the exact things I needed to succeed and gain financial security. It also became clear that I could still write, there was plenty of time for both, but that I should focus on land development for making money. This is quite obvious now but had been obscure to me for a long time. The course kicked me out of my chronically depressed and negative state, and back into the enthusiasm and confidence I had during my twenties.
The 16th and 17th days meditations are titled ‘Ignite Your Enthusiasm’ and ‘Freedom from Limiting Beliefs’ and were particularly helpful. The class seemed to track my progress, and while I felt complete at the end of each day, the next meditation in the series always moved me further. It was like a beautiful dance that happened throughout the program. By the end of the course, I realized how grateful I am to have the background and experience I gained over the past thirty years, and the confidence to make the money I need. I also realize that my writing is not a distraction but a joy, I honestly can do both things.
My path forward is clear, I am a confident land developer that will make money and write bestselling novels as a joyful hobby. And I will stop distracting myself with every different thing to avoid my fear of failure.
Many thanks,
David Resnick
PS — I have to say the music and guidance are superb, and I intend to do the course again because it is fun.
