Why You Should Feel Encouraged

The wish itself -- to be a higher person -- comes to you from a higher place
and is received in its inner equivalent within you. This means there's
already an existing connection between the you that you want to be and the
you that you presently are; between the new destiny you would have, and the
fortunes you've known. All you have to do is stay on the royal road that has
brought you up to this very point, for it leads directly to that higher
destiny you seek. And now you're about to begin another leg of your
appointed journey.

There's so much just ahead of you that's new and exciting. But you must
remember that the best views are always the higher ones, whose new heights
take personal effort to achieve. To ensure you'll make steady progress along
this higher way, allow me to instruct and encourage you in two special ways.

First, as you proceed with these new life lessons about winning the higher
life, you may come to certain moments where you have a disquieting feeling
that you don't understand what you're doing or, for that matter, even why
you're doing it! But each time you get ready to throw your hands up in the
air or toss in the towel, do your best to remember the following. For as
strange as this may seem to you as you stand there, feeling oh-so uncertain,
here's the true perspective to be embraced: These are the good times, not
the bad ones! In fact, all along you've been working toward just these
moments.

How can this be possible? Your confusion indicates that you've reached a
real inner threshold; you stand before the possibility of entering into
something genuinely new to you. And this unthinkable place is the same as
the doorway to a new destiny. So take heart!

Second, if you'll simply persist with your journey, you'll pass right
through these times of trial. I guarantee it. Nothing can stop your sincere
inquiry, including those thoughts and feelings telling you that you can't go
any further because you don't understand how to take the next step. Take
that step anyway. Then you'll understand.
