I have taught for years to create a vision of what you want and then “put it out there” in the form of an intention, prayer, or focused thought. I always talked about doing it on an energetic level.
Nowadays there are powerful vehicles you can add to your intention when putting it out there. You’ve heard of them. Vehicles like: Career Builder, Monster, Linked in, Facebook, Craig’s List, Match.com, and countless others. Why not use them? Like ‘em or not- you can’t deny they are powerful. Just don’t attached to and reliant upon them. Use them as a tool to create possibility. Add the power of these networks to carry your intention around the planet.
So why is this news you say? Everybody knows about these sites. It is the way you do it. Use them to create possibility. Let go of your expectations and see what comes back. Say you do not like the town you are in or the job you have, plug some other cites to your career field into Career Builder- just for grins. Two weeks later on Tuesday, you may be sitting at your desk and get a call from a recruiter that has a position you might fit with in Boulder, Colorado. Of course it may or may not work for you. But just the experience of getting the call makes you feel a little less trapped. Maybe the next one will be a situation that could work.
What have you got to lose? I am at the point where I am in several networks just to keep my dreams out there- and possibilities coming in. I forget about them and live my life. And then (seemingly out of nowhere), something comes back to me. It feels like magic. Sometimes I act on it; sometimes I do not.
But it sure is cool that random possibilities keep coming in.

About author:
Michael Hoffman’s passion is guiding people to connect with their natural gifts. He believes that we all have innate gifts that hugely benefit others and the world when we offer them. The purest example of these gifts is the Native American concept of medicine or the gift you offer your people. Michael defines your medicine or gift as the natural effect you have on other people when your heart is open.
Unfortunately, the demands of our current culture to comply and fit in often distract people away from their inherent gifts and the natural expression of their being. Michael believes many of us have forgotten our dreams and what we are about. This sadly results in a loss of purpose, passion, and vitality.
As an innate gift specialist, Michael offers retreats, classes, and individual sessions to allow people to reclaim their natural gifts. These venues allow people to identify, awaken, and offer their gifts. This experiential work incorporates Zen thought, Native American ceremony, rites-of-passage, and releasing limiting belief systems.
Michael also maintains his meta blog to provide knowledge, skills, and awareness for unfolding your natural gifts. He is currently compiling this knowledge and research into a college class and book.
Michael earned his Bachelor of Science in Psychology in 1987 and Master of Social Work in 1996. He is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. In addition to his formal education, Michael studied and apprenticed with a Zen Master and spiritual teacher for 22 years to learn how to guide people to understand themselves. He has worked with people professionally since 1986 as a psychotherapist and teacher.
Michael currently resides in Oceanside, California.
