At this very moment, your divine self is battling your ego self to determine how you'll experience this day. Your divine self whispers: "This is your greatest moment. Choose love over fear. Step into the light and become the source of love for everyone."
Your ego self whispers: "I'm not good enough or strong enough. Life is unfair. It's not my fault. I'm in too much pain."
Today, in spite of whatever challenges you face, you can gain a new and enlightening perspective by putting on your "divine lens." When you embrace this new perspective, it empowers you to live everyday in alignment with your soul's wisdom.
When you perceive life this way for a few minutes each day, awareness will begin to grow within you until your life is moving forward gracefully, your relationships and career are thriving, and your pain is diminished. This is the gift of your divine lens.
Once you experience the rich benefits and the mind-altering shift of your divine lens, you'll never leave home with it. You'll react differently to every challenging moment as you learn to remove your ego lens and slip on your divinity. It truly changes everything.
The most wonderful thing about being human is our ability to choose. In this earthly realm, we're allowed to experience the perfect combination of destined soul mission and free will -- every moment of our lives.
We each come here with a great soul intention to live up to our greatest potential, line our lives up with our highest self, and do great work that helps others. Yet we also hit bumps in the road; loss, illness, financial challenges, childhood pain and relationship turmoil.
Free will allows us to decide exactly how we'll view each challenge and how we'll use every gift we've brought with us. No one else chooses our viewpoint for us. We are the ones who determine how we view our life story.
We can choose to view this world as only a physical world with random tragedies and meaningless coincidences. Or we can choose to view life through the eyes of our soul.
When we align our ego mind with the wisdom of our soul -- we see things differently. Light pours through us and reveals the hidden beauty of each moment. We see that each challenge was perfectly designed for our highest good before this lifetime began. We understand that the purpose of each bump in the road has been to help us grow and awaken -- which is the reason we incarnated into this physical realm.
Life on earth is a human consciousness experiment that we've all agreed to participate in. We're expanding consciousness into this dense realm; and this evolutionary process has been going on for billions of years.
Today, you can take three simple steps to shift from your ego lens to your divine lens:
1. Take in one deep slow breath; hold for three seconds and exhale.
2. Say: Please help me see my soul's perspective on this moment...
3. Wait three seconds and listen for your divine inner guidance.

HuffPost's GPS for the Soul app is based on two truths about human beings. First: We all have a centered place of wisdom, harmony and balance within us. Second: We're all going to veer away from that place, again and again and again. What we need is a great course-correcting mechanism -- a GPS for the Soul -- to help us find our way back to that centered place, from which everything is possible.
Because no one knows better than you what helps you de-stress and tap into that place of peace inside yourself, it's important for you to create your very own GPS guide -- a personalized collection of whatever helps you course-correct. Email us at GPS@huffingtonpost.com and we'll set you up with your very own HuffPost blogger account to share your guide on the site. If you're already a blogger, we encourage you to upload your personal guide today. We can't wait to see what you have to share.
