I have been through this course twice now. You would think everything comes easy. I find myself working as hard as ever though and while I am doing the daily sits, reads and everything.
I am struggling, really struggling with my DMP (Definite Major Purpose) this year. Having started multiple projects perhaps biting off more than I should, I find myself struggling to get everything done that needs to happen.
I feel the call. I am responding to it but the effortless flow part just isn’t there yet. For my PPN’s I selected Spiritual Growth and Helping Others. I find myself knowing that in order to help people I need to be in a place I can help them which requires me to be stable and to grow spiritually. I need time.
The reality is I am lacking in financial resources to help (truly help others) without reciprocity and I am so busy working and earning that dollar that I am finding It difficult to achieve those PPN’s. I know it is possible; anything is… I know the universe is abundant and that what I put out will return and I am putting out all the right energy.
I have a great salary job that while it takes a lot of effort I am really enjoying and I am helping guide my whole family through the Master Key program.
Here we have this great program designed for adults and as part of our home schooling are requiring it for our children which takes a lot of extra effort. Some of the readings have some big words that the children struggle with. Shoot, to be honest, I don’t truly know all of them.
Sometimes, on occasion, I use a dictionary to reassure me words mean what I believe they mean. Weaving that into my DMP as part of my purpose helps me to help my family achieve their DMP’s.
I get that it is theirs to accomplish, but as a parent, I have offered to assist in the event they need assistance, like a family trip to the beach to assist my niece who wants to be a marine biologist.
I get that I can’t do the work for them but I can help them in ways only a parent can (and should) for upcoming youngsters. My guide is great, but I have been so busy, communicating with her has been limited at best.
Keeping my commitments and promises, when I have bitten off what feels like too much, are important to me. While it is a real challenge, I feel each week getting easier than the last and I know it is from doing the extra work (finding the time has been a challenge).

I was just notified today I have extra stuff to do Sunday and I have to work a couple extra hours for my new salary job. Now I know that tomorrow is all I have this week to work on assignments for another course I committed to.
I am taking on a lot but I also remember from other years through the MKE that “I Can Be What I Will to Be” and that “I will succeed”. I am scheduling my first zoom call with my guide for tomorrow and will be there whenever she is available. The struggle is “real” but the struggle is worth it!
