Did you set goals for this past year? If so, how many of these came to pass? The actual practice of sitting down to map out our goals and desires for the new year offers many benefits – not only on the physical plane but on the metaphysical level as well, for in the process of setting our goals we: 1) gain clarity about what we want, 2) begin to focus energy in that direction, and 3) allow ourselves to let go of energy that we had previously set into motion so that we may make space for new future outcomes. Yet, from an energetic perspective, traditional goal setting also has its drawbacks. 1) If the achievement of our goal requires us to take action steps, it is possible that we will become discouraged at our lack of progress early in the game. This negative energy tends to become self-reinforcing, leading many of us to abandon working towards our goals before February even begins. 2) In traditional goal setting we are encouraged to become very specific. Unfortunately, when we become too narrowly focused on a specific outcome we do not leave any room for our highest good to come to us in a slightly different package. 3) Most significantly, in traditional goal setting we are typically coming from a place of lack as we make lists of our new goals. This focus actually reinforces our experience of a gap between where we are and where we desire to be, which may push the goal even farther away. Universal Laws reminds us that if we are not in vibrational harmony with our goals, no amount of efforting, struggling or striving will draw them to us. Therefore, in addition to traditional goal setting, it is advisable to spend a fair amount of time achieving energetic alignment with the things, people, opportunities and experiences that we would most like to attract in into our life.
