All the harmony: Victory is sweetest after tribulations

Summon all your powers of imagination and play back in your mind the toughest situation that you have ever found yourself in.

Focus your entire mind on the full details of how it felt; the physical pain, the emotional pain, the sadness, the gloomy prospects of the future amongst all the other evil and negative emotions that were involved.

Feel like you are re-living that moment and are going exactly through each and every bit of what you went through at that time; how you felt life was no longer worth living; how you felt so vulnerable, helpless and alone.

If you are really focusing your entire mind’s attention onto the experiences you must be now feeling the quickening of your heartbeat, the sweating of your clenched fists and a chill down your spine with your hair probably standing on their ends-the same way you felt on that particular day.

Breathe in deeply and when breathing out, count up to five and feel the tension in your whole body slowly melting away from the top of your head down to the tips of your hands and toes.

Picture yourself sitting at the head of the dinner table tucking at the most sumptuous of your favourite meal, surrounded by a bunch of your warmest buddies and members of your family. Suddenly, someone calls for a toast particularly to you recent victorious escapade. In the midst of this pomp and funfair you are now lost in the sweet memory of this victory.

Focus your mind on this high moment of achievement and glory in your life: the euphoria, the tingling of your skin, the warm breeze on your face, tears of joy, the cheer, the light, the loving applause; every single detail of that moment stands out in your mind and you can not help it but give it your deepest, brightest smile from deep down your heart.  Then, suddenly, you are brought back to the present moment by the cheers and the words, “Here’s to sweet victory.”

Breathe in deeply again and while breathing out count up to five and relax your body even further, retaining the smile. Begin to count all the moments of victory and achievement that you have experienced in your whole life. Those are from when you were a little kid, through pre-school, primary school, high school, college/varsity or which ever post-high school life path you chose, work, career, family and within the community.

Go ahead and have a clear picture of what you desire to be the next series of your victorious moments into the future.

Picture every detail vividly in your mind and stay there for a long moment, arousing the same euphoria, the cheer, the love and the applause. This is where you belong. This is where the power that helped you through all those sad circumstances and experiences has brought you.

Like a muscle that has gone through the pain of vigorous exercise, you have been toughened so much that you are able to handle any situation, problem or challenge. You are able to turn any disadvantage into an advantage and victory.

No matter how dire a situation you might find yourself in, always remember that you have the ability to overcome and achieve beyond all your plans and wishes.

At this moment you are asserting your superiority over your lower self and all the circumstances of the universe. The universe is working with you and for you; this includes all its citizens, both animate and inanimate. You are connected to this powerful stream of success, prosperity and happiness which is pushing you further into the sea of abundance.

As you breathe in and out deeply, count all your blessings and be grateful that you lived through your testimonies. Be grateful for what you are going through now and the great harvest you are stepping into.

Here’s to VICTORY-Smile and be happy. After all, life is a celebration.
