The spiritual practice of zeal means being fully aroused by life. We tap into the divine energy that pulsates within us and around us. We are ready for anything that comes our way, and every moment is a golden gateway to new possibilities.

Start your day with the affirmation "I am vibrantly alive!" Say it enough times so that it sinks into your consciousness and seeps into your body. Whenever your energy feels depleted during the day, repeat the affirmation. In the last hours of the evening, let your "I am vibrantly alive" extend outward to support others through your prayers.

Robert Holden, leader of this weekend’s one day workshop, Success: Intelligence, practices zeal this way. “I notice that when I feel I am on purpose I want for nothing else... I enjoy a vital engagement with life."
