REACH OUT ...


In order to accomplish something, you need to focus on the positive aspects, not on all the hurdles you may be encountered by, otherwise you'll keep manufacturing more challenges and excuses.  

In order to make it happen, think about the potential, think about the added benefit to your life.

If you want to reach your goals you have to REALLY want them, you must be WILLING to do whatever it takes. 

Your dreams are meant to come true, but only if you're serious about seeing them in LIFE SIZE.

HOW TO STOP COMPLAINING AND START CREATING

In each one of us lays the complainer, the one that always looks for, and therefore finds what's wrong with everything ...

Inveriably, we tend to blame others instead of taking responsibility. 

Look what he did to me .. Why do I deserve this?

But between you and I, how does it help us if we sit all day and complain; they did it to us, they took from us, they're cruel to us .....?

Does it change the situation for the better, in any way?

Not really ..

On the contrary, the more we complain, the worse we feel! 

Well, so what to do with all this free time, we now have on our hands?

What do we do when the urge to feel sorry for ourselves shows up again? 
 
We all know there is no shortage of opportunities for complaints and grievances of various kinds, right?

So what to do instead?

It is a matter of philosophy of life ...

If I believe that the Creator of the world, this Divine energy, created the world for the benefit of the creatures (us among others), then it is not possible that what happens to me is against me!

Maybe that was designed for me, to help me ...

Through what color lenses would I then see my world?

What will happen if I say to myself, well, this is what's happening in my life right now, and now I have the opportunity to make a part of me a little better? 

Complaints will not help me in any way - it just weakens the power of God in me.

When we adapt to the belief that everything that happens, happens for our highest and best good, we empower ourselves to act, change and make ourselves a little better at a time.

That is how the power of the Creator awakens within us  - enabling us to create something new, something that had not been there before.

That's magic!

MAKING CONSCIOUS CHOICES


How to make conscious choices ~

When life throws you a curveball, do you also curl up into a ball? Do you feel like an injustice has been made to effect you? Do you say to yourself "I don't deserve this", or ....

Sometimes we get sidetracked by life circumstances, but if we keep in mind that everything that happens to us, is for our own benefit, we can draw strength from that. 

So, instead of asking "why me", we can ask "that's interesting, what can I learn from that ..." 

Doesn't it make you feel much better inside? 

It feels good because this kind of approach, holds a completely different energy - making a conscious choice empowers you!

This is a perfect example of how we can strengthen ourselves, instead of ending up self destructing. 

By not reacting and being influenced by anything external to us, (which takes training) and taking the time to look within, we can learn a lot about who we are - it is life presenting us with an opportunity to step up, make the necessary "tweaking" to improve.  

Other people are merely a reflection, what we see in them, in a certain aspect, is also who we are.   

Learning about ourselves through the eyes of others is when we truly get to know who we are. 

Consider this: think about someone you keep "bumping heads" with, and instead of seeing everything that is different between you, look for similarities.

You may be surprised by what you find ...

Please share your thoughts.

HOW TO DEAL WITH CHANGE EFFECTIVELY

How to deal with change effectively.

We have all dealt with procrastination when walking towards the unknown.

It is a natural thing to become hesitant or even fearful when approaching something we don't know; simply because we have no way of knowing what will happen next, we have no certainty.

What if we started with imagining the outcome? 

Would we gain more clarity and confidence in what we are hoping to achieve?

Invariably, the answer would be YES. 

You can envision your goal as if you have already achieved it. 

Everything begins with our imagination - it is a powerful tool that can reduce or even eliminate our fear and anxiety. 

Once you know your target, it becomes much easier to begin back tracking and working out what you should be doing next.

You begin with the required steps and figure out the resources available to you: your time, money etc.

The benefit is that you can slowly form a picture in your mind - you see all the pieces that will complete the puzzle you are working on. 

Having clarity on what it is that you need to do, empowers you to take the first step NOW - it propels you to form a well thought out map with specific steps. 

So instead of feeling overwhelmed or even handicapped by the task at hand, prepare yourself using your imagination and get ready to put it into actuality. 

NOW all you need to do is take ACTION.

HOW TO LOVE AS LONG AS YOU LIVE

“The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.” - Benjamin Franklin

Do not just wish to be happy, make it your life's quest.

Do not wait for happiness to happen in the future, act on it here and now.

Do not dwell on the past - be present and enjoy life this moment - it is your life. 

Be with people who elevate you and make you smile.

Take action on things that make you happy.

Look for the positive and focus on the good. 

Love more and contribute more to others. 

Love YOURSELF no matter what ...

How to let go and heal

http://pinterest.com/pin/330099847659269597/

Why should you let go of your pain and resentment?  Wouldn't it be better to replace your hurt with unconditional love and support?  


Sometimes it can sound farfetched. But think about it..   When you hold on to your pain, who suffers?   Mainly, you do! 


And of course you end up tagging along everyone else with you.  And I'm not talking about tagging on Facebook!!  


So, why not resolve whatever it is that is holding you back?   Why not free yourself to be the loving and giving person you truly are?  You know that that's all you really want to do..  


You can never be really happy if you hold on to any negative energy. You cannot be whole. You cannot be truly balanced.  


Why not take this incredible amount of energy and put to work for you instead of against you?  


For example, maybe you could invest sometime in finding what is your true purpose.   


A good place to start, would be to do something that you love to do, and create a way for it to be lucrative for you.   


You see, you always have a choice: you can drown deeper in your misery or you can use your creative innate abilities to work on your behalf.  


Your choice!
