There are times when we must rely on others. Why not accept this help with an open heart and allow yourself to grow?

If you accept help from others gladly, both your relationships and your inner-self will strengthen. Accepting help is not always easy because sometimes we are reluctant to recognise we need it or we kick back at it in anger.

Maybe you need a mentor or someone to point out a new path. My first mentors, Paul & Mary Blackburn, always remain with me as the people who saw what I might become - even though it took me many years to come to the same realisation. Since then, there have been many mentors, each adding layers (or removing layers - whichever way you look at it).

They did not do it to be thanked and I often did not accept with gratitude. But in the end, we both won by creating a better world. I have gratitude beyond measure to them all and they'll probably never know of it.

Now I willingly accept help either when I need it or when it is offered. And I give help with the same ease.

So, in this spirit, gladly accept help when you need it from others. Adopt a mentor if you need to. Helping and being helped builds a community that nourishes our souls.

Today, you can choose to let go of the fear or pride that prevents you from openly accepting help - and really live from love. You'll be the winner.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. Have you opened your heart to accepting help from others?

2. Have you allowed fear or pride to hinder your acceptance of help?

3. How has helping others - and allowing them to help you - strengthened your relationships?
