See time as a temple of God, a doorway, an opportunity for encounter. Time is then sanctified. Instead of trying to control it, we can become fully present to it and move through it into the ever present now.

Birds swim in the air
Fish fly through the sea
We walk through heaven
In God’s mystery
There are clues everywhere

Change your attitude from “willful” to “will flow” and watch what happens. One is full of self and effort and the other is a joyous letting go.

Meditation begins when the effort required to concentrate gives way to a steady flow of attention. The approach to meditation requires some expenditure of energy like an airplane on the runway that builds speeds and energy to the point of lift off. Meditation is above the clouds of thought.

When you realize the distinction between effort and intention you have discovered one of the keys to success. Train yourself to work first in consciousness before springing into action. Establish your goal in mind and open yourself to possibility.
