Key to happiness - being a Practical Idealist

This is Seth’s recipe for being “Practical Idealist”, someone who is the embodiment of “think globally, act locally”.  

Edgar Cayce spoke of often of having ideals and living them.  In Cayce’s description, ideals guide our life but are not a destination … in the same way that the North Star is used for navigation across the seas, but isn’t the destination.

Every smile, every positive and fulfilling thought and feeling, changes the world.  Have fun lighting up your world and enjoy the ride!

“He feels he has betrayed himself, and he projects the betrayal outward until betrayal is all that he sees in the socio-political world.  Had he begun the work of actualizing his ideas through his own private life, he would not be in such a situation.  The expression of ideals brings about satisfaction, which then of course promotes the further expression of practical idealism.  … When you fulfill your own activities, when you express your personal idealism through acting it out to the best of your ability in your daily life, then you are changing the world for the better.”

(The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events, Session 850)
