You Can Get Through This

by James Weeks | Apr 2, 2019 | Uncategorized

I was a guest on the radio show, Broken Wings, last week…

This was the third interview since I launched my book in December.
…Broken Wings is hosted by my friend Julie Macdonald; she’s a reverend and spiritual leader on the east coast.

You can download the interview here. (It might take a few minutes to download because it’s a large mp3 file). Here’s the link: Broken Wings Interview.

I was on the show to talk about my book, Meditations Across The King’s River.

One of the first things Julie mentioned is how tough it is to deal with adversity, and how easy it is to forget that facing adversity is part of the challenge of following your purpose.

I talk about this in my book too…

While I think it’s true that the universe will support you as you speak your truth and attempt to live a life of meaning and purpose.

It’s also true that you will face opposition sooner or later. Not everyone will support who you are and what you’re about.

Sometimes the people you think you can count on the most, will let you down. Has this happened to me? Yes, of course. Will it happen to you? Count on it. (But remember that it’s normal).

So how do you get through what you’re going through right now, and stay on track withwhat at you feel called to do or what you promised you would do?

Here’s what works for me…

1. Focus on who you feel called to serve instead of yourself. The mission must be greater than yourself.
2. Take one step at at time and enjoy each step of the journey. You can’t do it all at once.
3. Understand that the people who won’t support you will help you understand and and appreciate who DOES support you.
4. Maintain a daily spiritual practice and eat a sensible diet. You can’t function with a broke down body or a broke down spirit.

Here’s what I want you get as you listen to the interview, Barbara. There’s light at the end of the tunnel. Stay in the game. You can get through this.

Challenges will come and challenges will go. Haters will come and haters will go.

But you can get through this. Now is not the time to give up.
Feel free to write to tell me what you’re going through and I will respond as soon as possible.

Talk soon!
P.S. Don’t forget to download the interview. You’ll find it helpful.
P.S. If you would like a signed copy of my book, email me at james@acrossthekingsriver.com, and let me know if you prefer to purchase a softcover cover or a hard cover.

All my love!

Focus, Faith and Follow-Through

by James Weeks | Apr 2, 2019 | Uncategorized

Three words came to me from my ancestors this morning, and I was told to share them with you.

…Focus, Faith @ Follow Through.

I hope you remember these words. I plan to remember them.

I believe that if you can remember these words on a daily basis for at least 90 days, amazing things can happen for you. There can be a tremendous shift not only in your life but in your lifestyle.

And some things you’re struggling with right now will become distant memories.

You can go from feeling stuck to feeling free…

And from feeling unsure to feeling empowered. And from barely surviving to thriving.

How does this sound to you? What would a more empowered life look like or feel like for you?

Focus, Faith and Follow Through is important to me right now because I’m on an international book tour to promote my book, Meditations Across The King’s River.

However, I’m still doing spiritual consultations for clients, and I’m still working on my film bit by bit.

This month, April, I’ll be doing book signings in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

As I work with clients, sometimes it becomes clear that what’s holding them back is lack of focus. It’s not that they don’t have good ideas; sometime the real issue is that they are chasing too many good ideas.

Here’s the thing. If everything is your focus, then nothing is your focus. Narrow your goals down to one or two things.

And faith? Without faith it’s hard to stay energized, or draw the right resources or people to you. And without faith you’ll give up when you should keep going, even if you’re on the verge of success.

And follow through? Nothing can happen without it.

I hope you can remember these words — focus, faith and follow-through, for at least 90 days, my friend. I don’t know what your aspirations are but I know you deserve better. We all do.

What you envision for your life is possible.

I would love to know what you would like to achieve in the next 90 days. Feel free to write and I will respond as soon as possible.

Until then, may the ancestors continue to guide and protect you.
