Sometimes our true success lies in the small habits we keep and
maintain. It’s these small rituals that can often helps to always find success
wherever we go and in whatever we do. Today I want to share with you one of my
favourite, small rituals.
I love making these whenever I am starting a new project, it helps me
to focus my mind, set my intentions, and to expect and receive success.
These are really great to make whenever you are looking to achieve some
kind of success in your career or in business. Ideally you should make them
just before you start a new project, for example just before you start writing
that new book, start a new business venture or even start to look for a new
job. Make yourself a couple of these while focusing on and visualising yourself
succeeding.
You will need:
Fresh basil leaves
Cinnamon – can be sticks or dried and powdered.
Gold / silver / copper colour thread – which ever signifies abundance
and success the most for you
Wrap the basil leaves around the cinnamon sticks, and tie the thread
around it to keep the basil leaf in place, or if you are using powdered
cinnamon, pour some into the centre of the leaf and wrap the leaf around it,
using the thread to keep it closed, like a small sachet bag.
Then place these somewhere where they can remain safe and dry out
undisturbed, while you work on your project. Though this should also be
somewhere where you can see them frequently, at least once a day, to help you
to remember your goals ahead, and help to keep you focused.
Once you have completed your
project, you should burn these, either in a bonfire or in an incense burner,
preferably on the day of your success (perhaps even as part of your
celebrations) so on the day your book is published and ready to sell, or the
first day in your new job, or the day you launch your brand new business
venture. As you are burning the incense bomb, visualise great successes coming
to you now and in the future, ask your deity for their blessings, but most
importantly express gratitude for your success, and your having achieved your
current goal.
This can really become a powerful little practice, I do it as often as
I need to and whenever I feel I need success on a new project I’m about to
start. Not only is it a powerful act of intention, but it helps me to stay
focused on my goals ahead.
I hope it helps to bring you many great successes too.
