“Open your spiritual eyes to the help all around you.”
I had just called in, a few moments late, to a seminar hosted by Heather Madder, and those were the first words I heard her speak. I immediately felt a confirmation that what she was saying was true – that I am not alone, but that there are unseen forces at work helping me.
I am studying to learn about the Internet and how to more effectively market my book and coaching services. I sometimes have thoughts that I am alone, and that it is too difficult, and that I cannot do it. Yet Heather says, “The whole universe exists to support what you want to build,” and tells us that we need to have a clear intention and belief that the answers and help we need will come quickly and easily, and that doors will open to pave our way.
Another thought I have frequently is, “I don’t have time to do all I need to.” Heather teaches that we are constantly scripting our own limitations, and that we need to be aware of thoughts like that, which become ‘programs’ we may be creating in our own lives that are holding us back.
We can change those scripts! I decided tonight as I listened to Heather that my old way of thinking and system of beliefs is not serving me! I am going to take her advice and open my spiritual eyes to the help all around me. I will envision, as she suggested, people all around the world, sitting at computers, making connections to help pave the way for my success. She also suggested there are spiritual beings ready to help us as we request that help.
I believe that. I love the promise in the scriptures:
“I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up.”*
We are not alone!
I believe each of us has something to give to the world. Longfellow said,
“Time is with materials filled;
Our todays and yesterdays
Are the blocks with which we build.”
If we are to build something worthwhile to share with the world, we need to spend our time creating it – and we will need help. And I believe, with Heather, that it is there.
Open your spiritual eyes – and believe – and keep building!

Bill Bartman has overcome incredible odds in his life. Being raised in poverty, coming from a family where no one even graduated from high school, he didn’t have much future.
However, Bill wanted something different than what he was surrounded by. He wanted better. And he worked hard (and worked smart!) and he eventually graduated from law school!
How can someone make such drastic changes?
He had to believe he could do it. If he hadn’t believed he could do it, he would never have taken the first step. The thought, “What’s the use – it will never happen” would have prevented him from making any progress.
On his four-part goal-setting series at iLearningGlobal.com, he encourages us to “Think BIG!” He says we need to dream, and we need to believe those dreams can come true. We need to believe that we are good enough already to become what we want to become, and all it takes now is our belief and effort!
When you’ve endured the loss of a loved one, dreams for the future can seem useless. Why go on, without that person in our life? What’s the use?
I believe that we need our dreams now more than ever. We need something to carry us through the darkness and confusion of grief, and to help us to build a new life and give us something to live for. Our dreams can be one thing that help us move on and find healing.
So I echo Bill Bartman: Think Big! Dare to dream about something you’d like to become or accomplish. Then remember that God sent you to earth with talents and skills – and a mission to accomplish with them. Believe that you CAN do it – and that with His help, you will.
One of my favorite books as a child was The Little Engine that Could. I can remember reading those words over and over: “I think I can, I think I can, I think I can…”
So that will be my mantra from this day forward: “I think I can, I think I can, I think I can!”
Join me – and dream big, and believe!
With belief for the future,
Roslyn
