Sometimes when we are feeling as if we are at a crossroads, that we don’t have the knowledge or resources to move forward, we are sending out a very mixed vibration. And that vibe is often a mixture of confusion and a lack of confidence in our own strength and abilities. In fact, in those situations, the feeling of strength can feel like a very long stretch from where we are. 
And, when we understand how the Law of Attraction works and that our emotions are a reflection of our vibration, it’s clear that we can’t jump from feeling powerless and confused to confident and empowered. We may not be able to jump immediately but that does not mean that we can’t get there. And, when faced with what feels like a crossroads or pivotal moment in our lives, we know that we want to be making our decisions and taking action from a higher vibration that will yield the circumstances we want.
When we find ourselves in this place, one of the first things it’s important to realize is that we may be making the situation feel more complicated or overwhelming than it really is. We tend to do that! I sometimes do that! We should let ourselves off the hook a bit for that, as it’s a fairly easy place to arrive when we feel confused and overwhelmed.
One very helpful pact we can make with ourselves is to be aware of how we are feeling often and also to take note when we realize that we are viewing something as difficult and complicated. We can also vow to give ourselves a pat on the back for noticing that we are taking that perspective, which is only causing our issue to actually become big and complicated as we remain in that mindset. 
A helpful mantra that we could all benefit from would be “It’s only as big a deal as I think it is.” We always have the power to shift our perspective, break things down into manageable parts and remind ourselves that the Universe and our team of guides is always working on our behalf.
In fact, when we are Law of Attraction-savvy, we know that the “issue” we are defining as big has already been solved, managed, and turned into what we want rather than what we don’t want. It’s already sitting there in its perfection in our vibrational escrow just waiting for us to raise our vibration to be lined up with it.
So, what’s it going to take to get to that higher vibration where something that we have defined as big and difficult is actually done?
The first step in my repertoire is to remind myself of how powerful I really am. We all tend to forget that fact far too often. We have been endowed with incredible creative power. We embarked on this life adventure to expand and to demonstrate to ourselves that we have the power to be, do or have anything that we want. Why would we want to squander that power?
That acknowledgment should light a small or large fire under you. Wouldn’t it feel ridiculous not to leverage the power of the Universe that is completely available to us? The same energy that creates worlds is within us. We are that energy!
Once that fire ignites it should begin to feel pretty lame to keep feeling sorry for ourselves and overwhelmed by our “issue.” Anyone who has created anything amazing in their lives has ignited that fire, that passion, to move into the vibrational range of their desire.
After going through that process of re-thinking, redefining, and shifting our perspective, inspiration comes knocking at the door. The ideas, the steps, the clarity, the confidence are all beginning to fill the void that was created when we let go of the fear, overwhelm and sense of weakness.
And, this is where we can begin to really enjoy our place in the Universe as a powerful creator. We can sense the power of taking inspired action. Those ideas and solutions weren’t visible to us until we stepped up to feeling our power and confidence.
This is where the concept of being BOLD comes into play. I recently heard that whispered in my ear by someone who apparently knows what they are talking about. I knew that it wasn’t coming from me. The exact words were, “BE BOLD.” Suddenly, everything began to feel a bit different, as in better, and it only grew from there.
I remembered being inspired by a quotation on boldness long ago and realized why it was so inspiring to me then and now.
…the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never have otherwise occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.
Act boldly and unseen forces will come to your aid. Goethe
While this amazingly inspired quotation doesn’t use the words energy, or manifestation, or attraction, it is a powerful declaration of how our intention to use our power, our willingness to make a decision, and our inspiration to take the action that we need to take, is the vibrational mix that can create the magical life we desire. The perfect creative process involves intent, alignment, commitment, and taking the action that is calling us forward.
I hope you are inspired by this to turn something that now feels like an overwhelming challenge with lots of moving parts into your perfect solution. Line up with what you want and take the first step. It’s just the way boldness works. Be bold.
