“Just being ordinary is in itself an expression of Divinity. The truth of one’s real self can be discovered through the pathways of everyday life. To live with care and kindness is all that is necessary. The rest reveals itself in due time.” – David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D

I read that quote this morning from Hawkins’s book, I: Reality and Subjectivity and it deeply resonated with me. In a world that often celebrates only extraordinary achievements, this quote is a powerful reminder of the beauty and Divinity inherent in our everyday lives. Here are some ways we can embrace our ordinary moments and discover the profound truths they hold.

The Power of Ordinary Moments

Our days are filled with countless ordinary moments, often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of life. Yet, it’s in these moments that we can truly connect with our Divine Selves.

Morning Routines: Think about your morning routine. Whether it’s making a cup of coffee, taking a walk, or simply enjoying a quiet moment before the day begins, these small acts can be sacred. They ground us, set the tone for the day, and connect us to the present moment.

Interactions with Loved Ones: Everyday conversations and simple acts of kindness with those we love are filled with potential for profound connection. A heartfelt conversation, a shared laugh, or a gentle touch can remind us of the love and support that surround us.

Work and Hobbies: Even the most mundane tasks at work or during your hobbies can be fulfilling when approached with mindfulness. Finding flow in your daily activities, recognizing your contributions, and enjoying your interests can bring a deep sense of satisfaction and purpose.

Discovering Your True Self in Everyday Life

Discovering your true self doesn’t require a grand adventure or monumental achievement. It happens in the quiet, consistent moments of daily life.

Mindfulness Practices: Pay attention to the present moment without judgment. Mindfulness can transform ordinary tasks into opportunities for deep connection with yourself and your surroundings.

Gratitude Journaling: Reflect on and appreciate the small joys and lessons of each day. Writing down what you’re grateful for can shift your focus from what’s lacking to what’s abundant in your life.

Self-Reflection: Take time to understand your thoughts, feelings, and actions in ordinary situations. This practice helps you recognize patterns, understand your motivations, and connect with your authentic self.

Living with Care and Kindness

Living with care and kindness towards ourselves and others is a simple yet profound way to express our true selves and connect with the Divine.

Acts of Kindness: Small acts of kindness, like holding the door open, smiling at a stranger, or lending a listening ear, can create ripples of positivity. These gestures remind us of our interconnectedness and the impact we can have on others.

Self-Care: Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding you offer to others. Prioritize your well-being, honor your needs, and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small they may seem.

Trusting the Process

As Hawkins wisely reminds us, “the rest reveals itself in due time.” Patience and trust are essential in the journey of self-discovery and personal growth. Let go of the need for constant progress and embrace the natural unfolding of life.

Understand that every step, no matter how small, is part of your journey. Trust that you are exactly where you need to be and that everything will unfold in its own perfect timing.


Embracing ordinariness, discovering divinity in everyday life, living with care and kindness, and trusting the process are keys to a fulfilling and authentic life. Remember, you are not alone in this journey. Each part of you is valuable and plays a crucial role in your overall well-being.

Take this journey with open curiosity and kindness, and watch as your relationship with life transforms. If you want to dive deeper into this exploration, I invite you to schedule a free, zero-obligation consult.
