Do more than think…Act!

So far we have been discussing things that are mere preparation for the greatness to be experienced in creating the best year ever 2010! Now it’s time to take action….

First thing I’m going to do is call my friend who wanted me to do this Blog and ask her where the heck she is…I want you to do the same thing. (not call her..) call someone who wanted you to start a project and then didn’t show up… ask them to get it going… not why they didn’t do it.. who cares…. just do it!

This really is the best time to change your life, create the life you choose and dream another possibility for yourself… I’d like to hear what you are going to do…

Pass this blog along to your friends and let’s get the word out and create the best year ever 2010!

Super Bowl Wisdom

This isn’t about learning football at all and it’s not about the “weird commercials”… it’s about bringing people together to celebrate. Have you ever noticed “not everyone watches the game”… but it’s on in the background, you catch glimpses of the fantastic play or replay.

I caught glimpses of love! I so enjoyed watching the kids play, the parents multi-converse; all the while keeping their focus on all 10 conversations that were going on simultaneously.

Seeing “celebration” is heart warming and reminds us that we are life and we have so much to celebrate… it’s not about football… it’s about Love…

Freedom…How can you be Free in 2010

One of my greatest gifts has always been the ability to make life look easy. This is a Blessing and a curse some would say.

What most people seem to view as a problem I see as a challenge, or an opportunity to learn and to grow.

I believe in Freedom and that it truly arrives when we surrender and give thanks.

The realization that we would have nothing but for the grace of God has power… and it is in this grace that we have all we ever need and more.

Today I am thankful for every unanswered prayer… imagine your life if all of your prayers were answered…OMG!

The Power of Our Thoughts

When I wake up tomorrow I plan to “talk to myself” all day; I know, I know that really isn’t all that unusual. I’m sure you talk to yourself too and you might even answer yourself. Tomorrow though I’m going to focus my thoughts in the direction that I consciously choose… I believe our words are powerful and they come from our thoughts so it’s time to get a grip on our thoughts and use them to create the best year ever!!!

I will be on a mission to listen to my “self talk”, monitor it and redirect it when it gets a bit sketchy…(negative, doubting, fearful etc…).

I challenge you to do the same! Imagine our world if everyone focused on the power of their thoughts and directing their thoughts to positive, productive outcomes…. ahhhhhh doesn’t it feel good!

A powerfully positive universe filled with uplifting experiences that make all of our dreams come true…And so it is!

New Experiences Open You Up to Possibilities

I had the distinct pleasure of being exposed to a completely new experience and I was reminded of the vibrant feeling that occurs when I in particular stay open and allow myself to “experience” without judgment or control. I like to call it flying at 10,000 feet; the experience of observation and seeing my own life as if I were watching it instead of just living it.

The watching part allowed me to see my own “blocks”, fears, personal judgments and expectations of myself.

I believe we must watch our lives in order to live them fully; and flying at 10,000 feet we catch that glimpse that eludes us at the surface and keeps us stagnant . This years… let’s let no grass grow under our personal growth.

This year I’m going to fly more often at 10,000 feet and keep my eyes wide open!

Soar with me my friends!

How can you change what you’ve made into a habit?

I have answered this question a million times and each time I ask myself if there is a different answer because I’m in the “habit of saying the same thing” LOL! I believe in the core of my being that the only way to change a habit is to “just do it” plain and simple. I get that it’s not that easy and I know that if it were easy everyone would be doing it and the fact is a small percentage of people are willing to do the work necessary to make the shift they say they want.

Tonight I challenge you to grow by making a decision right now to do something that you have been saying you are going to do and have not done!

Give up smoking, stop with sweets, eat healthier, lose weight, stop drinking coffee…whatever it is…decide now to do it! Make this challenge part of you best year ever.

When I say “just do it” I really mean it. You see I know you can implement a plan, set the goal and the intention, you can even talk yourself into it slowly but you won’t do it until you “do it”. Your mind is an amazing tool that you can use to “Decide” and the moment is now, the choice is yours and the benefit is also yours.

“Just Do It”

Vision Board Accomplished

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend putting together your “Life Binders” and “Vision Boards”. I know that I was very happy to spend some time in visualization of what this year is for me, my friends and my family. I’m not an “arts/crafts” person but putting a vision board together was quite exciting! I love seeing the possibilities that I can create for my life. I would love to know what other people put on their boards and in their binders. I’ve found that doing a vision board keeps me focused on the intentions that I’ve set for myself. When I start to stray or get a bit uncertain of a direction I glance at my board and I re-remind myself of the “possibilities” and ignite the fire inside of me again.

So now that the board is done I’m putting a meditation schedule together that includes a strong focus on the board for 10 minutes a day 2X a day…I’m a huge believer that if you don’t take the time to schedule certain things into your life you just won’t do them and they certainly won’t manifest in your life if you don’t give them focus and attention.

Take time every day to see the things you really, really, really want… and bring them to yourself through the power of your own intention. Your life is being created for you right now…so guide it!

“Game Plan Weekend”

I’m getting out my scissors, paper, magazines, binders and all of the tools that I will be using to create my “Vision” board and my life binder system. I hope you’ll join me and we can all discuss the lessons we learn in the process. When I create my visualization board I place photo’s, drawings, illustrations and quotations on the board. I put the board where I will see it everyday; two and three times a day. Each morning when I wake up I take a few moments to express my gratitude to my Higher Power, breath in a deep breath to center myself as I deeply feel the items on my board as if they are mine. I imagine myself living the life I choose, having the things I desire and becoming the person I’ve decided to create. A deep breath, gratitude, prayer and implanting positive impressions into my subconscious and conscious mind are the beginning of a day that I create.

Make the decision this weekend to create your Life Binder and your visualization board… then tell us all about it.

“If Only” After Thoughts were our First Thoughts

I often wonder what Life would be if we had the “hindsight” first. I believe with daily meditation, focus and intention we are capable of achieving this in our lives. Our challenge is to accept our own intuitive thoughts with the confidence and the knowing that they are Divinely provided for us, in us and through us from the Highest Power that we believe to be omnipresent in our lives.

It is my direct intention in 2010 to strive for the perfection of and the acceptance of the intuitive messages that I receive. I’m looking forward to eliminating “doubt” where it is not necessary for I have solidified my deeper awareness of the truth I am to know.

Truth, Faith and Intuition let us have this rule 2010 and know that we are now consciously creating in an energy that fully supports our Highest and Best Selves and we are “plugged in” Ready, willing and ready to take the action to achieve all that we know is already ours.

Organizing for Action!

For the past 15 years I’ve started every year with a “life binder” (that’s what I call it). This is my system for setting my intentions and focusing in on what I choose to consciously create for my life in that year. My binder is a large 3 ring colorful binder that I can organize in anyway that I choose. I section off topic areas such as… Spiritual Growth and Development, Educational Accomplishments, Special quotations, Travel Plans, Lessons learned, Family accomplishments, personal accomplishments, financial intentions and positive affirmations. You can add any category to your binder that you choose and throughout the year as you become aware of areas that require more attention in your life you will find yourself adding and even taking away a category or two.

I have found that putting my thoughts and dreams into such a binder they manifest in my life quicker because my intention is clear.

This year as I put my binder together I’m focused on the intention of creating the Best Year Ever 2010!!!!

Some of the questions I’m asking myself so that my brain will engage and wake up my subconscious to respond consciously are: What will I require of myself this year that I’ve not in the past? What am I willing to do this year that I’ve not been willing or conscious enough to do in the past, How will I achieve my intentions faster and quicker than I’m imagining? What can I do to prepare for my successes? Who do I need to meet? Who must meet me? My list goes on… What are your questions? What are you committed to in 2010?
