Today’s Miracle Moment Is About Becoming the Version of You Who Has Everything…
Have you ever felt like the version of yourself you dream of becoming is always just out of reach?
She’s calmer. More confident. More joyful. More connected to her purpose. She trusts life. She radiates peace. She lives with ease and grace and somehow seems to attract miracles naturally.
And meanwhile…you’re over here trying to become her.
Trying harder. Healing more. Learning more. Waiting for the future version of yourself to finally arrive.
But what if that version of you isn’t actually in the future at all?
What if she’s already within you…waiting to be awakened?
One of my greatest teachers, the legendary philosopher and futurist Dr. Jean Houston, believed exactly that.
Jean recently passed away, and this message is lovingly dedicated to her extraordinary life and wisdom.
Jean was one of the most brilliant and expansive human beings I’ve ever known. She consulted with governments, dignitaries, and the United Nations. She worked in more than 100 countries and spent decades exploring human consciousness and untapped potential. But beyond all her accomplishments, what made Jean unforgettable was the way she saw people.
She saw who they could become.
She often spoke about what she called “the possible human” — the greater self within each of us that longs to emerge.
As Jean beautifully said:
“We all have the extraordinary coded within us, waiting to be released.”
That idea changed my life.
Because most of us are living from only a small fraction of who we truly are.
We move through life from old conditioning, familiar fears, and limited beliefs about what’s possible. We assume our current personality, habits, and circumstances are fixed realities.
But Jean taught that within each of us exists a higher blueprint — a wiser, more loving, more expanded version of ourselves that is quietly waiting for our invitation to emerge.
And one of the keys to accessing that version of ourselves is something many adults have forgotten how to use:
Our imagination.
The Einstein Story That Stayed With Jean Forever
Jean once shared a story with me from when she was just eight years old.
Her class had the chance to meet Albert Einstein. One of the students asked him, “Mr. Einstein, how do we become as smart as you?”
Einstein answered:
“Read fairy tales.”
The children were confused, so another student asked, “How do we become even smarter than you?”
Einstein smiled and replied:
“Read more fairy tales.”
Then young Jean raised her hand and asked, “Mr. Einstein, you’re talking about imagination, aren’t you?”
And Einstein answered:
“Yes. People think I’m good at mathematics, but I’m actually terrible at it. I get other people to do the math. What I have is a wonderful imagination.”
I love that story so much because it reminds us that imagination isn’t childish or frivolous. It’s sacred.
Imagination is how we begin to step beyond our current limitations.
It’s how we rehearse possibility.
It’s how we begin to emotionally and energetically align with a greater version of ourselves before we can physically see evidence of it.
And in times of uncertainty or transition — like the times we’re living in right now — this becomes even more important.
Jean believed that difficult periods in human history actually activate dormant capacities within us. They call us forward. They invite us to become more courageous, more conscious, more compassionate, and more connected to our divine nature.
She had a beautiful word for this deeper calling:
Entelechy.
What Is Your Entelechy?
Entelechy is the dynamic purpose already encoded within a living thing.
The entelechy of an acorn is to become an oak tree.
The entelechy of a caterpillar is to become a butterfly.
And your entelechy is the fullest expression of who you’re here to become.
Not the fearful version of you.
Not the exhausted version of you.
Not the version shaped by disappointment or self-doubt.
But the radiant, wise, loving, fully alive version of you that already exists as possibility.
Jean taught that we can begin activating this higher blueprint by consciously embodying the qualities we most want to awaken.
She would ask two powerful questions:
- What powers do you already have?
- What powers do you need more of?
Maybe you already possess deep intuition, compassion, creativity, or resilience.
And maybe you long for more confidence. More trust. More self-love. More courage.
Jean encouraged us not to wait for these qualities to magically appear someday in the future. Instead, she taught us to begin consciously calling them forth now.
To embody them.
To practice them.
To activate them.
She would often say:
“Don’t bore God by keeping yourself quiet on what you greatly are.”
A Simple Practice to Awaken Your Future Self
One of the most transformative experiences I had with Jean was participating in a process she called the “Coding Process of the Entelechy.”
It was designed to help us connect with the highest version of ourselves — not intellectually, but emotionally and energetically.
The practice is beautifully simple.
Close your eyes.
Place your hands upward as if you are ready to receive.
And imagine your higher self — your optimal blueprint — approaching you with unconditional love and deep recognition.
See this wiser, expanded version of yourself fully believing in you.
Feel yourself supported. Empowered. Activated.
Then bring to mind a miracle or desire you long to experience.
Imagine that this higher version of you already knows the pathways, synchronicities, people, and possibilities available to help bring that miracle into form.
Sit in the feeling of being partnered with something greater.
Because you are.
When practiced consistently, this begins to shift something profound within you.
You stop relating to yourself as broken, lacking, or behind.
And you begin relating to yourself as becoming.
The Life-Changing Wisdom of Helen Keller
Jean also once shared a story about meeting Helen Keller as a young woman.
She asked Helen Keller, who was both deaf and blind, “Why are you so happy?”
Helen Keller laughed and answered:
“My child, it’s because I live each day as if it’s the last. Life in all its moments is so full of glory.”
That perspective stops me every time.
Because joy isn’t always born from perfect circumstances.
Sometimes joy comes from fully receiving life.
Fully inhabiting the miracle of being alive.
Fully opening ourselves to wonder, beauty, connection, and possibility.
Jean believed that human beings are capable of far more love, creativity, intuition, and transformation than we realize.
And honestly?
I believe that too.
The Universe Is Expressing Itself Through You
One of Jean Houston’s final messages that continues to echo in my heart is this:
“You are not a passive observer in the cosmos. The entire universe is expressing itself through you at this very moment.”
Take a breath and really let that in.
You are not separate from life.
You are part of its unfolding.
And the version of you who already embodies greater love, joy, creativity, wisdom, abundance, and purpose may be much closer than you think.
Not someday.
Not years from now.
But right here…quietly waiting for you to say yes.
With love and miracles,
Marci
