Welcome to Love Notes from Rhonda.
Speaker AAnd how would you define success?
Speaker AWhen you think of your life, you.
Speaker AHow do you define success?
Speaker AIs it that all your needs are met?
Speaker AIs it that you are loved?
Speaker AIs it that you've gotten that raise or that new job?
Speaker AIs it that other people praise you and admire you?
Speaker AIs it that A, B or C?
Speaker AWhat is that thing?
Speaker AHow do you know when you are successful?
Speaker AWell, success in fearless living isn't about things, even though those are nice.
Speaker ASuccess isn't about getting anything because there is no successful life without peace of mind, without liberation of fear, without the inner spiritual certainty that knows that the soul is on the pathway of good.
Speaker AThere is no success without peace of mind, without the liberation from fear, and without the inner spiritual certainty that knows that the soul is on the pathway of good.
Speaker AWhen we want that job, when we want that raise, when we want that love, when we want that admiration, what we are doing is we are attempting to fill the wounds within us.
Speaker AThe false beliefs, the wheel of fear.
Speaker AWe're trying to calm it by giving it candy of the world.
Speaker AThe money, the love, the job, the things.
Speaker ALet's call that candy of the world.
Speaker ABut as you and I both know, that doesn't feed us for very long.
Speaker ASo we have to go out and get more candy, more things.
Speaker ASo I invite you to contemplate what would inner spiritual certainty look like?
Speaker AWhat would peace of mind look like?
Speaker AWhat would liberation from fear look like?
Speaker ABecause you can have all the candy of the external world you want, but unless you have peace of mind, you have nothing.
Speaker ABecause you'll still keep trying to go get more candy.
Speaker ASo peace of mind, liberation from fear.
Speaker ABecause when you go and want those things, when you try to get those things, and again, having ambition and motivation and wanting to express yourself creatively or wanting to share your gifts with the world, go for it.
Speaker AYet, unless it's done from a place of enoughness, unless it's done from a place of.
Speaker AOf peace, unless it's done from knowing that you have everything you need in order to move forward, peace of mind will be denied to you.
Speaker ASo I just invite you to contemplate what is it that you're yearning for, what you're seeking.
Speaker AAnd I dare say if you look underneath that thing that you think you want, that you think you need, underneath is the real thing you want, which is peace, liberation from fear, and the spiritual certainty that knows that your soul is on the pathway of good forever, expanding forever.
Speaker AYou don't be tricked by the candy.
Speaker AGo get the peace.
Speaker AAnd by the way, it already exists within you.
Speaker AUntil next time, be fearless.
Speaker AI love you.
