we all are born curious with no exception, 

we learn from the first day 

 

it’s the action we take from our lessons

that defined us.

THE SEVEN PRINCIPLES OF EFFORTLESS ACTION

 

Effortless action is not synonymous with sitting on your chair doing nothing. 

 

Effortless action means creating change without straining to "push the river." Going with the flow. Setting the wheels in motion. Effortless action is setting a goal and paying attention to what needs doing and allow the results to come when and how they come. Effortless action is being willing to do whatever it takes, but not trying to control what you cannot control.

 

The following seven principles are something to review from time to time when making business decisions.

 

1: Act on Passion. Take a stand for what you believe in. Remember your purpose is to contribute the best of who you are at all times. You are in this particular work situation because this is the place where you can fulfil your life purpose for the time being. There is a reason you were led to take this job or create this career.

 

2: Be Discerning. Let your rational mind and intuition work together. Trust first impressions but always check out the facts.

Principle 

 

3: Listen very carefully to unspoken feelings. Flow through on persistent intuitive messages.

 

4: Notice where you lose or gain energy. Notice when you begin to rationalise, justify or blame. You feel something is not right? Take action even though it may take you out of your comfort zone. It's time to discover what you will need to change or release from your life.

 

5: Commit. Do whatever it takes to put you in motion toward doing what your intuition is telling you.

 

6: Assume synchronistic support (or providential help) is coming your way. Coincidences you never expected confirm that you are on the right path, even if their meaning is not crystal clear at the time. Some people say, "If it's supposed to happen, it will."

 

7: Trust the process. Trust that your life is unfolding as it should and that your intuition will lead you in the right direction.
