I Am-The Key To Awakening And Addiction Recovery

I must admit that I missed A New Earth and Eckhart Tolle on web cast last night. I don’t miss Oprah, even though she did a good job. The things that I found in A New Earth, particularly as they apply to addiction recovery, life coaching and transformation, and awakening spiritually are consistent with many of the readings I do.
During the study of A New Earth, it became very clear to me who I am. I am; Keith. This reading explains it well:
”Learn to say I am
We hear a lot about becoming whole. "Become a complete human being." "Start on the pathway to becoming whole." "You won't find romantic love until you know you're complete." Frankly, these kinds of comments often confused me. But then I decided that wholeness relates directly to the process of detaching - letting go.
It's admirable to go after our dreams and know what we want to accomplish. But after we identify what it is we're after, we need to let it go. We need to know in our hearts and souls that we're okay whether we ever get what we're after or not.
Another friend described it this way, "It's the old Zen Buddhist thing," he said. "When you're one with yourself, life becomes magical. You can get whatever you want."
The most powerful and magical words we can say in the language of letting go are these: I am.
Then we step it up one notch by learning to say, I am complete just as I am.
God, help me know the power of the words I am.”
The words are simple, the action required not as simple. Letting go of some problems that occur in life is a challenge at times, yet when resolution of the problem occurs, it is so easy to look back and see how little good worrying did, and how much energy was wasted in the worry.
On a daily basis I work at being at one with myself. Years ago I learned that even with my flaws, I am a product of god who is not perfect but is what god created, I am unique in a positive way, and my purpose in life is to make a positive difference by coaching others.
As I move in to a busy day in front of me, I will turn worrisome issues to the care of my higher power, focus on the moment, remember the success of meditating yesterday and repeat it today.
Most importantly, may I be present in the reality; I Am.
