After many years in strategic leadership roles across global institutions—spanning project management, management sciences, and complex systems—I chose early retirement from corporate life to follow a more soul-guided path. I now walk the path of my highest purpose. I am also a mother of two daughters, a widow, and a friendly presence to everyone I meet. I bring my whole self into everything I do. My writing is spiritually inspired, shaped by a lifelong devotion to purposeful service and a journey of conscious, lived experience.

It may be a heavy load but it’s only a burden if we make it so. When we do it out of love of what we can gain from it or/and what others can gain from it, it will lighten us up and raise our vibrations and so the heavy load would not feel like a burden but instead pleasing.

Focus all of your thoughts on maximizing your outcome and detach lovingly from focusing on what others will gain from your action by wishing them well with their blessing for it is meant for them.
Embody this concept in all similar situations and your energies will purify and be at peak strength which will help you to manifest what is meant for you.
From my eBook: Self-Mastery/True Self-Empowerment by Joycelyn Marshall
If we want others to let us be our true selves and allow us to put ourselves first, we too need to allow others to be true to themselves and put themselves first. If we ask of something from another, we owe it to them to take the action that will put themselves first even if it means saying “no” to us. For it is they who are ultimately responsible for their actions regardless of the trigger. If their actions feel like a rejection to you then you’re taking it personally. Direct your love to yourself until you can become balanced again.

You are to yourself what you feel. If you feel worthy, you are worthy; if you feel that you can achieve it, you will achieve it; if you feel accomplished, you are accomplished. For only you know your true feelings, your true desires, your highest aspirations and what will truly fulfill you. You are therefore the most powerful to always make you feel the best about yourself. Always take control of this as these are the energies that you are transmitting to the Universe.
From my eBook: Self-Mastery/True Self-Empowerment by Joycelyn Marshall
There are energies behind our intentions so we need to purify them before we act, before we transmit them so that they can be received at their best.
If we are saying that someone does not deserve what is given to/meant for them with our intentions then we are sending out the energies that we do not deserve what is meant for us. They deserve what is given to/meant for them just as we deserve what is meant for us.

Stop to pat yourself on the back regularly for it is a process.
Stop and love only yourself, regularly, to refuel your energy to give to yourself first and then to others. Don’t forget to pat yourself on the back for doing a good job. Remember, things may not happen overnight for it is a process. Also, allow any person close to you to do the same, if they need to, for they too have to refuel to satisfy their needs first so that they can give to you what you want from them. Be good to both you and them.

Start observing yourself, your intentions behind your actions. Reflect on what you attract back to you by those intentions behind your actions. Try to do something out of pure, beautiful intentions. If it means purifying your instinctive thoughts before acting, then do so. Reflect on the good that you attract back to you. You can confine this to yourself or you can choose to expand your world by extending pure, beautiful actions to someone else outside of you. Your world and what you attract back to you become larger when you choose to extend it beyond yourself…But first, start with observing yourself so that you can become aware of the current world that you are creating for yourself with your actions.
We are both human and spirit so it is also important to be in great spiritual health through purifying our thoughts and acting from our purified thoughts. Purification – that which will place you or anyone in a higher state of being by your action.
From my eBook: Upgrading your life by Joycelyn Marshall
The best gift you can give to yourself and the world is a “happy, fulfilled you”. When you are at that state of being then you are at your most powerful to give to yourself and others with love and pureness.
From my eBook: Self-Mastery/True Self-Empowerment by Joycelyn Marshall
The more you trust the Universe (God) and believe in yourself—the more power you give yourself to act on your dreams; the more powerful energies you put towards achieving your dreams; the less energies are available for fears of any sorts which will only reduce the effect of what you achieve.
Steps to Help You Believe in Yourself
1 Be gloriously flawed. Embrace your weaknesses as part of your beautiful self while working on becoming your true empowered (soul)self. You are here to be authentic and true to yourself.
2. Always take control of how you feel for only you know your true feelings, your true desires, your highest aspirations and what will truly fulfill you. You are therefore the most powerful to always make you feel the best about yourself. Don’t give this power away by caring what others think about you more than what you think about yourself.
3. Always take steps that would align you with your highest aspirations. Ask yourself, “What would I, in my best form, do?”. Then take that action even if you have to push through your immediate fears. This would put you on your highest path and it would make you feel the best about yourself.
The Effect of not Believing in Yourself
When you don’t believe in yourself, you go about life with low self esteem. You avoid situations where you feel that you do not meet up to others’ standards suffocating your true potential, in the process. This makes you go about life feeling unfulfilled on a soul level, always feeling that there should be more out of life.
