You do realize that you don’t have to be any more deserving or worthy than you are right at this very moment. You only have to make one choice and that one choice is…to be happy. It begins from within and radiates into your world creating more happiness just for you.
Take steps toward happiness. Everyday point out what makes you happy; a smile, coffee, a hug, an unexpected check in the mail, the beautiful blue sky, the air conditioner, the close parking spot, the laugh of a little child, an appreciative look…find it. Look and really feel what that happiness is like. Keep looking and focusing on the joy in your life and what you see in your environment. It is the first step to truly being happy and then…the floodgates open and you will find…you are happy.
When you get into the thought of “You’re wrong and I’m right,” even if it is the truth, you are justifying how you feel. When you justify, you are creating resistance in life. When you resist in one area of your life, it most always creates resistance in other areas of your life. You don’t need to be right in order to feel good about yourself. Stick to your truth and let others figure out what they must without any justifying on your part.
Is it really that important to be right? You see, no matter what, each of us believes that ‘our truth’ IS the truth. Some will see that it is their truth as well OR they will snicker at the thought of your truth being right. How about we allow others to be as they are and we keep rowing our own boat instead of feeling the need to row others boats as well? When you stick to your boat, you decide what direction it will go but when you begin trying to steer others boats, you end up going in circles as you struggle for the control.
Aye, aye Captain! 
No matter how great you are at attracting what you want in your life, you will always have contrast within this physical life experience. Maybe an unpleasant person or possibly a surgical procedure or a visit to the dentist chair. This doesn’t mean that the Law of Attraction isn’t working. This is a world full of contrast. But remember that you don’t have to add to the contrast that is showing in your life. You don’t have to pitch a fit or become frustrated and add to the contrast. Sometimes life takes a wonderful direction through contrast. What you can do is be aware of what is going on and begin changing your own beliefs and reactions to the new way of thought that you are building. And any kind of unpleasantness that may show…just look it square in the eyes, get into the moment, get it done, and then…release it…that’s it. You don’t have to hang on to the feelings or play it over and over again in your mind building all kinds of resentment or blame. That only brings more of the unpleasant experience to you.
Throw yourself into it, get it done, learn what you can from the contrast, and then…let it go. And do your best to experience with a positive feeling heart as well. Send out those positive vibrations my friend! 
When you are all ready to vent, yell, throw a tantrum, have a little fit…just take a nice deep breath and really think about what you will be throwing out into the Universe…just sayin.’
What goes around, comes around…
Did you know that if you don’t like yourself that you will begin to think that others don’t like you no matter what they say? If someone wants to be your friend, you may keep them at an arm’s distance because you may assume they don’t approve of you since you…don’t approve of you. AND if you don’t love yourself then you will begin to wonder if others love you. How you treat ‘you’ is how you treat others as well. So…if you begin to like yourself, you’ll start to like other people. How you feel about you is not only within you. It creates a vibration beyond your own self that reflects through other people. How you think others feel is how you feel about you.
Mind boggling, isn’t it? Everything starts from within when it comes to who we are and what we experience. This is not to say that we are being selfish. We really have a choice how we experience life and it begins from within. If you have trouble liking who you are begin really looking deep within. Know that you are just as wonderful as the next person. You don’t have to have some huge accomplishment to be amazing. You are amazing ALREADY. As you begin to live from within, from that wonderful connection of unconditional love and acceptance of self, your perception of you and life will change to reveal the amazing, beautiful, one of a kind being that is the true you.
Shine my friend…shine.
If you can just make little changes to how you express yourself, you’ll see a difference in your life. Positive thinking is truly a life changer. Instead of saying, “I don’t want to go to that place to eat,” say, “I want to go to that place to eat.” One simple change from negative to positive. See how simple that can be?
Words are just words until you put a feeling vibration into them. When we become aware of the difference in how we express ourselves we are becoming aware of the feeling and thought behind what could be negative. And then we shift it to the positive creating a whole new feeling vibration.
Just do it. Just begin. And if you mess up…start again. It is in the repetition of retraining your mind, to think from a positive perspective, that will eventually be your true state of mind. Anything worth doing takes practice. Make positive thought a habit!
You know that person who made you angry and frustrated? Well, look at it this way. It was like a negative laser point coming out of the sky that just happened to come in the area of where you were, bringing negative vibrations all around the person who created that laser point and you just happened to be there when it happened. If you took that laser point and threw it back, just like they lobbed it at you, you would be participating in the same kind of hurtful energy that they gave to you out of the blue. You have become a part of their vibration and now…created even more of the negative. How about stepping aside and letting that energy fly by the wayside and letting the vibration of negative only affect the person who is sending it out?
Be like a ninja and use your fancy footwork! Duck, jump, and land peacefully on your feet.
How many times do we hang on tight to what we think are the right things? How many times do we turn down what the Universe has given to us because it isn’t exactly how we had envisioned it? How many times has the ‘just right’ someone or something passed you by because you wouldn’t look at the possibilities of a better option that the Universe has supplied? And how many times do we say, “all or nothing’ and lose the true sight of what we really wanted in life?
There are so many possibilities to what you envision and the Universe knows the best creation for you…focus on the essence of what you truly want and leave the rest up to the Universe. The Universe ALWAYS supplies ‘as is or better.’ How about a little trust?
The Universe automatically brings to us what we put out there. It doesn’t react to our desperate pleas…it only reacts to our vibrations of how we are feeling.
Desperate vibrations equal desperate vibration experiences. Calm vibrations equal calm vibration experiences. Not such a hard choice, is it?
Desperately asking the Universe for something to come into our lives only creates a vibration of, “Universe…I’m pleading here! PLEASE!.” This vibration is stating that we ‘may or may not’ get what we want and we are pleading for it to happen creating more of the same vibrations of desperate. Yet when we ask, expect, know, and trust that what we ask for will come about in some way, shape, or form, without the desperate attached, we have now let go and expected that all will be well creating just that.
When transformation happens in life, things fall away that we have depended on. And sometimes we feel as if the world as we know it has come to an end. And you know what? The world as you know it has but this has to happen in order to make room for the next wonderful phase of life. The one you have been asking for…a new beautiful way of life.
When asking for transformation and some big change, it will shake up your perception of life. Many say, “No…things are changing. I didn’t want this. I want it in an easier way than change,” and they go back to their uncomfortably comfortable way of thought. Here’s the thing…if you want life to get better and be all that you want it to be, change is a necessary part of the process of manifestation. By changing, you are creating a vibration that is new into your life. The old vibration wasn’t working for you or you would be happy there and this new vibration ‘blows’ that old way to kingdom come and change has to be a part of the process but…through the change you gain experiences and higher vibrations that you never would have reached just sitting there with your old ways.
And once the change begins and gets under way…oh…Willa Wonka and the Chocolate factory good!
It seems that the human nature is to worry. We worry because we feel that if we don’t worry about all the different ways we could be in danger it may take us by surprise. Hmmm…and you do know what that worry does, right? Creates the foundation for all those worry vibrations to manifest in some way, shape, or form. THEN we say, “We were right, see? I should have worried.” When really you created it through your worry vibration so yeah, you’re right. Does that make you feel better?
OR how about expecting the best and getting the best and if the best doesn’t come still know the best is there…and guess what? The best will come in some way, shape, or form.
But hey! Who am I to tell you what to do? It’s your choice.
Why is it that when you want a particular experience to happen, and you have to go away for the weekend to the relatives, that the experience you have been wanting and visualizing on pops up and presents itself right when you have plans? Aaaahhhh…because you took the expectation of what you wanted away. You dropped your resistance knowing you had to do something else and all the possibilities of how it would work opened up. Your attachment that it just has to happen, the nonstop thinking of it fell away and in that moment created a way as the resistance was down.
Way to go! Hey, I have an idea. How about visualizing what you want and then cut it off at the chase by letting go and letting it happen leaving the resistance on the roadside. Can you imagine how well that could work?
Anytime something new comes into life it almost always feels uncomfortable. We love the comfortable and steadiness of life even if it isn’t really that comfortable. So as we have this wonderful change, that we get passionate about, created through our new way of thinking. We get excited at first but then we come upon a block or two as we feel as if we are being taken out of our comfort zone. That’s when we back pedal and make up reasons why it won’t work. Then we go right back to our old uncomfortably comfortable ways and think that is just how life is.
Hmmm…and then there is the thought and vibration of looking forward to change knowing that change is an indicator things are moving in the direction you want. Stepping into the ‘unknown’ of change can be exciting and something to look forward to even if that change isn’t quite what you expected. You see… sometimes it takes breaking a few eggs to make an omelet.
How about embracing change? You do know that in order for you to have more of what you want in life, change must occur, right? And you do know that in order to create the wants of your life that you will have to have a different vibration and when you create a different vibration change must occur.
Repeat after me, “Change is good, change is good, change is good!”
Why do we mentally hold on to things that hurt? We should take notes from the body. When we pick up a hot cookie sheet we drop it immediately, when we drink something too hot we spit it out, if we pick up an ice cube and it hurts to hold it, we let it fall. You know…holding on hurts, doesn’t it? How about we put all those thoughts that hurt… down.
How about it? Isn’t it time to stop reliving a past or present experience that is ‘hot to the touch?’ How about just putting it down and moving on.
You don’t have to ignore it or bury it deep inside…just put it down and move beyond the wounded feeling. It is your choice whether to hold on to the pain. How about it? Isn’t it time to let it go? It happened, it’s over, learn what you can from the experience and then drop it like a hot potato.
Sounds like a plan to me.
Blame, blame, blame. How about we get rid of the blame? This doesn’t mean you have to agree with someone else’s view or that you have to continually let others walk all over you and agree with everything they have to say. It doesn’t mean that your truth will be any less and it doesn’t mean that you will be giving in. When you are in an experience that feels less than stellar, just take your focus off whatever is creating that vibration of blame. Don’t prove that you are right or try to fix it. All those vibrations of justification, ‘being’ right, or changing an experience or person will do nothing for you. Well…it will do one thing…it will close up that open positive vibration you were creating. Is it really worth it?
The vibration of blame feels low and menacing. It feels so…well…wrong somehow. I gauge my vibrations on how I am feeling and if I am feeling less than positive I know that something needs to be changed and that something is right within me. It always is…you always have the choice.
When you are in the middle of a problem, make sure not to take action while your vibrations feel negative and low. Do your best to find a higher vibration, get your mind off the problem for a while, and then make a choice when you are in a better space. Nothing good comes out of a choice made from a negative vibration.
This doesn’t mean you procrastinate until you are singing, “The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Music….AAAAAAAaaaahhhhhh!” What it means is do the inner work to put yourself in a better feeling vibration before making a decision. You will then be making a choice out of a calm steady flow of vibration instead of a low, down to the ground, heavy vibration.
And then you can sing to your heart’s content…you know what?! Sing anyway!
How about we change it up a little? When you tell yourself, “I can’t be positive,” add two little words…until now. Or, “I’ve never been able to do that!” Two words…until now. When the mind brings up anything that may be scary or fearful to you, all you have to do is add those two little words…until now. What this does is cuts the self sabotage off. Instead of saying all the reasons why you can’t do something because of some past hurt or some kind of resistance say, “Until now.” You will retrain the mind to realize that you can do anything you put your mind to.
I love how this works.
So what if your family has some kind of gypsy curse on it? Doesn’t matter…remember the words, ‘until now.’
Curse be gone! hee hee
So what if once again someone has made you madder than a hornet. Doesn’t matter…remember the words, ‘until now.’ You will then realize it is up to you to change your reaction from within.
Maybe you want to lose a few pounds and you tried and tried but to no avail. You say, “I never can lose weight!” Doesn’t matter what happened before…remember the words, ‘until now.’ You can begin again.
Repeat after me, “Until now, until now, until now.” Now go forth and create!
When you are in a situation that you aren’t necessarily happy with, that is the time to accept the situation and have a glad heart while experiencing it. When you decide to accept, you are at peace while you are doing it. This is how to get beyond something you don’t like…by accepting and having a glad heart and then, and only then, will you move beyond what you don’t like.
It is the focus on the ‘don’t like’ of the experience that creates more of the same. All you have to do is diffuse that bomb by accepting, finding the positive or at least have a glad heart while doing it, and then envision what you truly desire. Letting go of the ‘don’t want’ vibrations doesn’t mean you are doomed to be in the same experience over and over again. When you let go, accept, and feel that glad heart, you will now move on in an easier steady flow to what you envision.
Been there, done that, and it just gets better and better!
Be aware of the life energy that flows within you. That life energy is your inner self. That life energy is the walkway from the vibration of having no form to the vibration of physical form. Everyday do your best to feel the life energy that is within you. Connect to that energy and you will be connecting to the bridge of your desires.
Your life energy is the connection to having the life you envision. It is within your thoughts and imagination that creates a passion of, ‘I would like that…I see that.’ And passion is the energy of creation. Your life energy takes nothing and molds it into something…the bridge from the nothing to creation…
Just like connecting the dots!
When your mind and your spirit align, the true self, the flow of energy within you, will flow steadily and out into the physical world. When your mind and spirit are opposed to one another than that flow becomes stagnant and ‘stuck’ as you try to figure it all out creating resistance. It is when you are able to work together between your spirit and mind that everything begins to fall in place and life becomes even more amazing.
Going with the flow is one of my mantras. This doesn’t mean I ‘bow down’ to any and all experiences. It just means I continually keep a steady flow of positive vibrations going as I experience life. When I keep a positive flow steady…I know that I am connected to the true self of who I am. Any time you feel positive, you are on the right track of creating a physical life through your own true self.
