A channeled message from Samuel:
The question asked is, “I want to have a positive impact on the world. What can I do?”
We lovingly say, if you want to change the world, start by changing yourself.
Even if you don’t want to change the world but only the circumstances of your life, begin with yourself. Your personal transformation is the key to every positive experience you wish to have.
Your life on this Earth-plane, where endless discoveries and adventures take place, is deliberately designed to promote evolution and growth. That is a built-in part of your human experience. Even if you do not consciously perceive your ongoing evolution, it is happening.
The difference in what you label as a good or bad experience is your perception of what takes place and the stories you tell yourself. What stories do you prefer to tell? Do you want to keep repeating why everything is a struggle and why you can’t get out of your current circumstances, or would you prefer to reframe the conversation and say that what is going on right now is temporary, and then do whatever you can to change your experience?
Rather than saying, “I can’t do this because…”, try saying, “I will try this.”
We encourage you to shift your focus away from the obstacles in your life to what excites you. It can be the smallest thing; it just needs to excite you. A tiny shift in perspective can cause a massive shift in your energy and vibration. That shift in vibration makes all the difference in transforming your life.
“Why is there so much focus on the self? I want to be an agent of service, to have a positive impact on the community. What is your perspective?”
“You cannot draw water from an empty well.”
How can you be of service or have a positive impact on your community if you are empty inside? How can you bring a smile to someone if you cannot smile for yourself? Lasting impacts and true service happen when the desire to serve comes from within you. The desire to serve is a natural consequence of letting your joy radiate from within, not seeking validation from others. Being your natural, authentic self is more powerful than you realize.
When you are at peace, the world is at peace.
Every change, every positive impact, every act of service begins with you. You cannot do your greatest good if you are at war with yourself.
Follow the calling of your heart. Do what brings you the greatest fulfillment and joy. This is an important step in your personal transformation. Do what you feel inspired to do and let that be enough.
Is there anything else you have to offer or share?
Only this: you are loved beyond measure. You are supported in ways that you are only beginning to understand. All That Is stands with you because you are an expression of All That Is. Trust in this wonderful Truth, and be the radiant, magnificent being that you are.
