Azure Dawn: Live, Love and Laugh.

LET GO, LET IN, LET SPIRIT! Get YOURSELF together!

I want to keep the high hopes and momentum going by talking with you about your plans for 2008.

I want you to think of what you want, I want you to think of ways to obtain those things and reach those goals and then I want you to be proactive and have faith. You can do this, believe in yourself. Make realistic goals and don't give up.

LETTING IN: Let inside of you, the faith to believe that you CAN achieve your goals. If you want to lose 30 lbs by the summertime, not only is that do-able, you could even exceed your target weight loss. If you want to find a new relationship, start cleaning out your own spiritual closet- and watch and see what happens. You have to LET IN good things. We have to be careful about what we let into our minds, bodies and spirits.

If you listen to garbage, you will be filled with garbage: negative people (arguing, horrible gossip etc.), negative television (soap operas when our own lives are in shambles ect), negative music (music that insults women, relationships etc.), websites and negative books. I am not saying stop watching the news and listening to 'adult' music etc. There is nothing wrong with playing a video game that may have some violent elements or reading a great Stephen book. The problem comes in when that is the majority of what our lives are filled with. What I am saying is do not over-do it. We are influenced and absorb the things in our environment. Do not allow your 'diet' to be only the news, people harming other people etc. (in movies etc.)

HERE IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE: Have you ever noticed that if you are on the train, bus or driving to work, if you are listening to music that is loud, has a dance beat etc. that when you get to work, you seem more amped? You feel more motivated? What about when you are in the shower or tub? You may have some smooth 70s, neosoul, jazz or classical music playing and you are about to fall asleep in there because you are so relaxed. It is because that music has not only set your mood- it has soaked itself into your Subconscious and 'programmed' you to have certain responses. If you have been arguing with someone all morning at work or home- that is your 'music' for the day and chances are very high, the rest of your day you will be angry, anxious or depressed until you turn on some new 'soul music'. You have to LET IN GOODNESS to HEAL the "bad music' you heard earlier in the day. This is why aromatherapy, yoga etc. are so popular now. Every day, living in this hustle and bustle country, we are stressed out. Our jobs, our families, our love lives, our finances are relationship with our Creator is impaired. We become impaired and spiritually handicapped and don't realize it. Then, when you add negativity from outside sources to that, you have polluted yourself.

We feel tired, not realizing that our emotional, mental, physical and spiritual bank accounts are on E. We are only running on fumes. So LET IN goodness. The more GOODNESS you let in, the better you can handle stress.

Exercise, try to eat right, do not engage in drama or damaging gossip, cut off and destroy relationships with people, places and things that are sucking your energy. This could be an addiction to drugs or a person that continuously compromises the trust of your relationship. Life is too short! I can not stress that enough. None of us are promised tomorrow. I personally, have no desire to spend my last day on earth, which could be today, Lord forbid, fighting, arguing and crying.

LETTING SPIRIT: After you open your door to LET GO, so that flow can be fluid,  and you LET IN so that you can be prepared to receive new blessings, then you need to LET SPIRIT. Once you have CLEANED up yourself, you can invite SPIRIT OVER for a chat. It is like a guest. You wouldn't invite a very important guest to your home without cleaning it up first would you?

 I am a very neat and tidy person for the most part- but we all HAVE something that needs to be gotten up before someone comes over, or cleaned. That is human nature but I am speaking figuratively. I am talking about your housekeeping on the INSIDE of you. Your Spirit is like the Celebrity of the universe! It is your's! It is a big deal! It's a star, you are a star! It needs red carpet treatment.Once you let that Spirit come in, then you will allow the universe to work it's magic. ASK FOR IT AND BELIEVE YOU WILL RECEIVE IT! However, you slow this process down if your place isn't clean and open for business. It is like asking someone to come in your house and help you with a project. If you have things all over the floor, counter, the laundry piled up, toys and clothes all over the place, old food laying about- how in the world will they be able to get in there, get in there real good, if they have no room to work?! And more importantly, WHY would you ask for something when there is no room for it to be placed anywhere once you receive it because you have too much clutter and mess?!

You ask for a loving relationship but are you convinced you truly deserve one? Do you know what to do with it once you receive it?Is there room in your life for one? Are you able to accept and embrace a person that truly loves you or are you just in love with the idea of it??? What do you have to offer to someone romantically? Are you DBR? (Damaged Beyond Repair)? Now I personally, believe that everyone is 'fixable' but the key point is that, not everyone wants to be fixed and we can not fix anyone but ourselves. What we can do is help eachother, if someone wants help but the fixing has to come from within that person. They have to have a desire for it. No one is perfect, we all have our shortcomings and flaws but some people are Predators. That means we have no time or room for them in our lives. They are our trash. There is no sense in holding onto trash, even if you've gotten used to it and you love it. Trash creates clutter and causes there to be no room for blessings or real love.

 I am not saying that any human being is trash. We are created by the Supreme so, we can not be literally trash. What I am saying is that their soul can be contaminated and 'trashy'. If that is the case- then you are in trouble if you are dealing with them in any capacity. 'Trashy' people, soulwise, will suck your energy right out of you. I have been through what many of you have been through and then some. I am fully aware of how hard it is to let go of someone that you love dearly even though you know energy wise, they are killing and draining you. I know what it is like to stay in a situation, rather it is a job or whatever, because you don't think you have anywhere else to turn. IF YOU WERE DESIGNED FROM GREATNESS, YOU ALWAYS HAVE SOMEWHERE TO TURN, AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT! GOD DOES NOT LEAVE US HERE ALONE! You are NOT an ISLAND!

LET GO, LET IN, LET SPIRIT.

Now, in January 2008, let's GET TO WORK!

BE BLESSED,

Can a Tiger Change His Stripes?

I have conducted countless readings regarding love and relationships. I can safely say that most psychics are asked relationship questions 75% of the time when we are called for readings. Love is a billion dollar industry (dating sites, clothing shops, perfume/cologne, make-up, and hair-care) That isn't just for us- it is also so we can feel attractive about ourselves but also to our potential or current mate.  Due to innate human longing to be connected with another human being, we do all sorts of things. From the beginning of our development in our mother's womb, we long to be taken care of and to feel warm and comforted. Our mother's body gives us nourishment and once we enter the world,

we are shocked by the bright lights and sounds and simply want someone to assure us that everything will be okay. We cling to mommy. We get familiar with her scent. We know her voice, we even known the exact rhythm of her heartbeat. No one can replace mommy. Dad is great, but at least for those first few weeks, months and sometimes even years, mommy is where it is at because we were inside of her body and she was the first one that ever loved us outside of God.

As we grow up and mature, we begin to see that others are capable of giving and receiving love as well. Others can supply us with a love that mommy can't, romantic puppy love. We enter our teens and sometimes because boy or girl crazy or shyly swoon over a secret crush that takes our breath away. His or her name is written in our notebook, inside our locker and we 'pretend' to be a couple with them even if we may have never spoken to them in our entire lives. Then we grow past this stage and become even more mature and start actually meeting potential mates or getting to know what was originally a 'puppy love' situation develops into a full blown love affair as time passes. We learn about love through observation, our natural emotions, and outside influences. We sift and sort this information and some of it we may not even realize is influencing us. Somewhere along the line though, we had a mental 'model' of what we wanted. We may not have given much thought to it, but we knew when we 'saw' this person or spent time with them, that they matched our prototype. It may not have even been a physical prototype; it could have been a personality one etc. The problems come in when we hold on to a prototype that was possibly created by seeing our parents in an unstable relationship/marriage and soap operas as well as cheesy romance novels. We meet various people and try to 'force' them into the cubby hole we created. Sometimes, they fit part of the way, most of the way or not at all but that is hard to tell at first in the beginning stages of a relationship because everyone has their best foot forward when you first meet them. When have you met someone and on the first date they say,

"Oh, by the way...I've never been faithful to any of the women I dated. I can not keep a job for longer than 30 days. I have a long police record that includes 17 felonies. I have a horrible temper. I am possessive and controlling and on occasion have been tempted to knock a chick's teeth down her throat if she gets mouthy. I am not very good with money, I expect to have 3 home cooked meals a day rather my future girlfriend/wife works or not and my shirts and pants ironed even if I am not working and I am a mama's boy. I'm a great catch though."

If these sort of statements were stated from the gate, most women would be gone from that table immediately! We would grab our purse, tell that person Adios and vanish never to be seen again! If people were not putting their best foot forward and not covering the truth about whom they really were, many of us would have been saved a lot of heartache in the dating world.

So now this topic is coming full circle by me jumping to the title: Can a tiger change its stripes? Technically, yes however this is not something we should put all of our stock in or bank on, for a variety of reasons. Relationships are like investments. They take monitoring and some work but they should not be labor. It should not constantly hurt to love your mate. If your mate is a very jealous person and you have prayed, talked with them, suggested counseling etc. and nothing has changed, then you need to understand that it may never change. The only things you can control in this world are your actions and thoughts as well as responses. Everything else is out of your hands! Once you realize this and understand it, you will be less stressed. We do not have control over other people's life, just as no one technically has control over ours. No one can tell you what to think and how to feel- those  belong to you. Even men and women that are incarcerated have freedom of mind. Even men and women in the military that may undergo all sorts of mind games in order to see if they can break, have their own mind though they may appear to all cling to the same thoughts and have no separate identities. This simply isn't true because our dna proves it is not true and never can be. You’re very genetic make-up proves that you are incapable of being totally controlled and forced to be like someone else. It can be that way temporarily, but it can never last because nature always wins. It can never happen- a total complete change unless you really want that and train yourself to be that way. Even identical twins have differences rather an on-looker can see it or not. So with that said, if you change or shift, it will be you doing it and no one else can do it. A Tiger only changes its stripes when it decides it no longer likes the pattern.

You and whatever army will not be able to change that tiger's stripes and any temporary changes that occur under the pressure of your influence, will typically revert back over time. No one stays a changed man or woman if they made that change 100% for someone else. Those changes are temporary only to appease you. People have to change because they WANT to change. A person, who is incapable of being faithful, has to get to the root of the reason why they disrespect themselves and their relationships that way. It is something that is going on with THEM, not their partners. A person that is constantly yelling at their mate has to get to the root of why they become so angry and demonstrative, especially when they notice it never changes anything and actually sometimes makes it worse. It is an issue with THEM, not their partner. Their partner may have said or done something that helped cause the anger, but we CHOOSE our reactions. A person that refuses to support their family and uses excuses to not get a job in order to bring in some income if they are able bodied has to look internally as to why they will not do what they need to do in order to be a responsible adult. It has nothing to do with their partner; it has to come from them and for them. Therefore, you waste a lot of time and energy on people that you are trying to change, if that is your mission. You can foster desire in them to change, but they have to want it even more than YOU DO FOR THEM, for it to happen and stick!

So....don't worry about your Tiger changing his or her stripes, concentrate on changing your own life and making choices that benefit you. Change your own stripes. You didn't paint your partners stripes on them and you can not erase them. Only they can.

God Bless and Be Well

Your not the boss of me!- Taking Control over YOUR Life.

You will free yourself from the cumbersome impossibilities of needing to control the world, your friends, your mate, your children…-The Secret

When someone has the strong desire to control another person, it usually is a direct reflection of that controller’s lack of self control over aspects of their own life. This could be something as small as not able to control their time management to something (not waking up on time for work or working late into the night time and time again) or as large as unable to stop an addictive habit, like cocaine abuse that is physically and spiritually killing them. We have to accept that there are some things in this world, which we can not control. Once we start trying to push, prod, shove and make things happen unnaturally, we interfere with the natural karmic blueprint of the situation which can cause the end results to slow down or be taken off course completely. It is important to be proactive in your life, but it is also important to respect the boundaries of certain situations.

Think about the first part of the quote of this blog: “You will free yourself…”

Do you know what it feels like to be totally free? Children playing in a sprinkler in their front lawn… Laughing, soaking wet then running to the side walk as they hear the ice cream man approaching.

Freedom to many, is having their own business. Telling themselves when to rise and shine, what their benefits provider will be, when their lunch time and when they need

to ‘return’ to work and having paid vacations if they so choose. Having an ‘in house, free of charge day care’ and having home cooked meals for lunch versus a buffet from the dollar menu then rushing back to the office in a mad dash.

Freedom to most of us, is being able to have control over our own lives. We feel enslaved to our existence if things are happening that are out of our control. Sometimes when that happens, we try to cope with this by inadvertently trying to control others. A prime example is the terrible Supervisor who yells and screams at his employees and watches everything they do in typical micro management style. He doesn’t realize that he is slowing down their productivity because employees in this sort of hostile environment, have a higher turn over rate, they are often late for work or call in sick and their work performance is often lacking. Happy employees make better workers. This is just a fact but some Supervisors need to control others overrules common sense.  If the employee come back from lunch in 31 minutes versus the 30 that he allows, they get written up. He asks them to keep track of everything they do for weekly reviews and he calls them into his office talking to them about a personal call that lasted 3.47 minutes. There are no incentive programs offered, no company parties or activities to foster fellowship and trust and the pay is poor.

This type of Supervisor, most likely, feels out of control in their own life. They are trying to define themselves by being able to control others when in fact, it is only a temporary remedy and keeps them further and further removed from their own happiness. Many times, people that need this sort of control in order to distract themselves from their own lack of control, gravitate towards positions where they are exclusive, work alone and have power to influence someone else. It is an unfortunate cause and effect.  Each act of excessive control they exert is another step backwards towards their own personal freedom. Not being able to control yourself  is a loss of personal freedom. Not being able to control how you respond to others, is another loss of personal freedom.

Doing small things, to administer control and freedom over your life are steps to a brand new, empowered you.

1. Asking for that raise that you know you deserve but have been to shy to ask for. You can be told No, but at least you asked and that lets your boss know that you are wishing to be compensated for your work and that you know that you are an asset to the company.

2. Getting your hair cut for the summer when for the past 10 years, those tresses have never seen a pair of sheers. Some people hide behind clothes, hair, and weight- anything that helps ‘cover’ their spirit up. Not everyone with long hair and that could lose a few lbs is a control freak or hiding, don’t get me wrong- but these are simply common physical disguises humans use in order to distract themselves from their center and their issues that need to be addressed.

3. Deciding that a cheeseburger and coke is not the way to get that 10 lbs off for the summer and opting for a small salad and unsweetened iced tea instead. Making yourself work out while watching your favorite TV. program. You are making choices and setting up ‘NEW’ habits. You are taking CONTROL over YOUR life.

It is YOUR life. No one is going to steer the wheel better than you and your Creator. Take control of yourself.

In each of these cases, you make sacrifices, but you reap rewards. You have empowerment now. The more you do it, the easier it becomes. You gain another slice of freedom and you have less of a need to control and dominate others.

Keep in mind, giving someone constructive criticism or disciplining your children are necessary parts of our relationships though at times unpleasant. I am not talking about the daily maintenance that is needed in our work and personal relationships. I am talking about the person, like the Supervisor example, that seems to live their life through others and get great pleasure out of rules and stipulations that have no rhyme nor reason.

Examples of losing control of self and controlling others:

1. The father or mother that forces their child to participate in a sport or school activity that the child hates, simply so that the parent can brag to others and live their ‘second childhood’ through their offspring.

2. The wife or husband who constantly nags about two crumbs on the counter, from day to night instead of addressing the TRUE reason they are upset. They will never be free as long as they concentrate on the symptoms of their distress in their marriage. It isn’t the crumbs that upsets them as much as it is the fact that they do not feel appreciated by their spouse.

3. The teenager who is a school bully and feels hated by his or her parents. Once at school they can play a new role in which they are coveted and feared. Causing fear, distress and pain is their way of gaining control. When they get home, they have no control and feel oppressed and display self loathing and low self esteem.

Take time out to take back what is yours. Freedom is a gift from our Creator. When we give in to the temptation to try to rule and dominate over others, we give up a part of our personal freedom in order to impair another’s. That is a lose-lose situation. We impair our freedom with the choices we make over the years, and even the thoughts we have. If you think something often enough, you will believe it. Free your mind and the rest will follow. Stop playing old horrible tapes in your mind of the past traumas. They are enslaving you. Stop telling yourself you will never find a decent job. Stop telling yourself no one could ever fall in love with you. Stop telling yourself that you are a failure. Stop telling yourself to stay with someone that doesn't love you because you don't deserve any better. Stop telling yourself you are not worthy.

Create NEW MENTAL tapes:

I WILL get a job. I TAKE CONTROL over this situation.

I WILL receive true love. I TAKE CONTROL over this situation.

I WILL no longer accept being abused by others. I TAKE CONTROL over this situation.

Otherwise known as affirmations, say them, be convicted and mean it.

God Bless you and may your day and week be filled with abundant blessings.

Give and it will be Given to You.

Give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over...(Luke 6:38)

What is the true act of giving?

Is it giving your time, money and heart in anticipation of receiving something back?

OR

Is it giving of yourself, regardless if the receipient appears thankful, gives in return or expresses appreciation or not?

Giving of yourself, truly, is giving a piece of yourself rather it is your time, your hard earned money, your ear or what have you, REGARDLESS of the outcome. When we give with a pure heart, we get back ten fold. We may not get back from the person we gave to, but we get back from the universe and are blessed for it.

I remember one late Autumn while I was in college. College students are notorious for being broke, and I was no different. I was going to school full time, working part time and doing the typical things a young adult does. I didn't have much money but a friend of mine had fallen down on his luck. I had a ten dollar bill and some change. I went to the University bookstore, bought myself a soda and gave him the rest of the money. Now, 10 dollars was not going to help his situation much, he needed a way back home for Thanksgiving which was approaching in a couple of weeks but the nine dollars in change could at least get him a bite to eat that evening so he could brainstorm ways to see his family. He was on scholarship but his personal needs were not being met from a financial stand point. Before he and I parted for the evening, he told me about a party on campus and urged me to attend.

Later that evening, I found two dollars in change, in the glove compartment of my little beat up light blue Spectrum. I decided I wanted a 'new' tanktop to go with some jeans I had. I was going to that party after all so I went to the local thrift store. I got inside, pushing my cart up and down the aisles looking for a black tank top. Instead, I saw a really cool little beige jacket. I wanted that jacket. It had a 'grunge' feel about it and I knew it would look killer with the jeans I had, a thick belt and some brown clogs. It was $1.75 and they would take an additional 25% off at the register. I snatched the jacket up, pleased with my purchase and dashed home to throw it in the laundry and prepare for my evening.

As I stood in the basement, I checked the pockets of the laundry as I always did, before putting them into the rotating washer that was filling to the brim with hot fragrant water and sloshy suds. I stuck my hand in the pocket of the jacket, and pulled out a bawled up 20 dollar bill.

...Give, and it will be given to you.

Now this is just one of many examples that have happened in my life. Typically, something like this would go unnoticed. Many of us have had this sort of scenario and the magnitude of it sails right past us. It is one of those 'small' Universal laws that yields big time. When you give from the heart, and because you care and love- you may see the results that same day or it may take awhile but there is always a karmic deposit made into your life bank account.

It is important, however, to choose wisely when giving. Ever heard the phrase, "Throwing pearls at swine?" Pigs do not appreciate pearls. It would be a waste to hand a hog a pearl necklace because a pig has no appreciation for such a gift. When there is a person or situation that we have given TOO MUCH of ourselves too, it wears us down. These are the type of situations where we have to say, "Enough is enough."  When we are constantly giving in a relationship, but never receiving care, consideration, time etc. back, then that is a one sided relationship. Giving in a relationship is never 50/50. That is a myth. One person, at any given time will give more than another but believing that you can rely on that person- regardless, is what makes that 'investment' worth while. If you do not feel taken for granted or unappreciated, then by all means, move forward but if you find that you are emotionally bankrupt and have taken out heart-felt loans in order to keep the relationship afloat and your partner has not come close to scratching the surface on his or her emotional nest egg, then some evaluation is in order and some decisions need to be made. It is one thing to give from a pure heart. It is another thing to be taken advantage of or for granted.

While on the topic of giving, it is important to also remember to give to yourself. Give yourself time to heal, time to play, time to rest, time to feel, time to eat, time to reflect, time to work, time to gather with others, time to exercise and time to organize. Make time to give to yourself and to others.

That nine dollars and change was not a lot, but it was all I had at the time and it meant a lot to my friend. Instead of using it to get a bite to eat, he used it to buy a calling card and spoke to his cousin who agreed to pay for an airline ticket for him to come home. His gift to me, was to invite me to a party. My guardian angel's gift to me was to find two dollars in my car. My gift to myself, was to buy a cheap top to attend the party. God's gift to me, was 20 dollars, a little over double what I had given him. I think any financial advisor would tell you I had made a good investment but more importantly, my Spiritual Advisor and Creator showed me it was money well spent. Not because I found money later, but because my friend got to go home and fellowship with his family.

We are all connected.

God Bless!

VISUALIZATION - The breakfast of Champions

VISUALIZATION – Today’s breakfast of CHAMPIONS

“Visualize!!! Rehearse your future. VISUALIZE!!! See it! Feel it!
This is where action begins!” NOW…DO IT!

What is it you want right now?

We can start simpler, what do you want today?

Don’t wish…wishes are not tangible. IMAGINE it to be TRUE.

Let's start small...

“I can see myself having a fantastic, much needed nap today!”



FEEL THE JOY, FEEL YOURSELF GETTING COMFY AND SLEEPY…FEEL YOURSELF NOT FEELING RUSHED. SET AN ALARM SO YOU CAN FULLY RELAX AND ENJOY EVERY SECOND OF IT!

VISUALIZE! Rehearse your future!

“An affirmative thought is 100 times more powerful than a negative one if done with full belief!” – The Secret

“ I WILL have an awesome nap today! It will energize me.” - something so

small can be so significant. Once you see you can make 'small things' happen

with visualization, you will move up the ladder and take on more and more

goals.

Example 2: Today, I am not going to spend over 30 dollars. I will stay within my budget.”

ENVISION your bank account balance not going below less than 30 dollars from the current balance. ENVISION you feeling PROUD of yourself for not buying an expensive lunch and only taking care of necessities. ENVISION yourself NOT going shopping and instead, organizing your closet and putting together a NEW outfit you’ve never worn together before with accessories you rarely wear and then ENVISION receiving compliments from people regarding how you look in it. ENVISION yourself cooking yourself dinner that night instead of eating out. ENVISION yourself staying at home and reading, watching television or having a conversation with an old friend and NOT spending money.
ENVISION yourself taking a walk around the block while you listen to your mp3, ipod or walkman and not SPENDING one dime on that JOY and HAPPINESS! Your body is THANKFUL, your WALLET and BANK ACCOUNT are thankful, YOU are SUCCESSFUL and THANKFUL. You ENVISIONED it and MADE IT happen!
It is yours! It is YOUR successful day. Keep doing this until it becomes your NEW HABIT. Watch your DEBT disappear. Tell yourself, “I am DEBT FREE.” Don’t say,
“ I wish I were debt free…” or, “It will take years for me to be debt free.”
Say, “ I am DEBT FREE.” Say it every day! Believe it!




Sit down, close your eyes and imagine a bank statement that reads:

$0.00 AMOUNT DUE
$0.00 BALANCE

Sit down, and imagine your bank account growing each week!

$3,000.00
$3,200.00
$3,450.00

Make yourself a promise, talk about it like it has already happened and watch miracles.
This will take effort, time and patience, but it WILL work.

ENVISION yourself NOT smoking…

ENVISION yourself NOT worrying…

ENVISION yourself NOT falling back into old destructive habits.

We have ONE life. Life is SHORT. Take care of your life.
You are the CEO, Manager, Chief Financial Officer, VP of Marketing and Advertising, Office Manager, Receptionist, Accounts Receivable Clerk, HR Director and Janitor of your OWN LIFE. Your LIFE is YOUR company. Are you running it well?Are your employee(s)- that being YOU, happy? Are you excited to get up and go to work in YOUR life? IF NOT, YOU NEED TO HAVE A SELF-MEETING! You need to talk to all the roles in your life, and have them do EXACTLY what they are designed to DO!
No one else can manage your life for you. Only you can.


So LIVE it WELL!

How to Attack Negative Thinking

Hello Seekers and fellow Advisors-

Due to some emails I have received, conversations with friends and family this past weekend, it just reminds me once again that we are all are here to help someone else. Our lives do not just belong to us, afteralll. Who'd uh thunk it?

For any of you going through a hard time, uncertainty, drowning in worry or feeling pressure due to life changing experiences that you have little to no control over and are now allowing negativity to take over, this is for you:


" You can begin feeling whatever you want (even if it's not there)...the universe will correspond to the nature of your song." -This is a Quote from 'the secret'.

What this means is that the universe, rather it is reflecting physically to you what you need or not, it will materialize or answer, in some manifestation eventually. We are energy- we are souls that are made in God's image and we are 'balls of energy'. We are either positive or negative, when we send thoughts, feelings and expressions of ourselves out- they are one or the other.

From thoughts of, "She sure is a pain in the butt..."
to thoughts of, "I can not believe how nice it is outside."

They all 'create' a cause and effect. We are all guilty of negative thoughts and thinking processes. They become a pattern. People that tend to be very pessimistic, worry-warts and constant skeptics are usually attracting just what they 'DON'T BELIEVE'. In other words, those that do not believe in Creator or God per se, have a hard time seeing God or Creator in anything, because their thoughts are not open to receiving the possibility. Those of us that do believe in God, we may think God is in EVERYTHING and even over analyze this. It really depends on your perspective and we as human beings tend to attract whatever it is we believe. Our existence is defined by our beliefs. Once you change your thoughts and beliefs, your existence as you experience it, changes. Thus, your experiences begin to change in order to match your beliefs! Isn't that awesome?!

Some people believe they are destined to be alone forever or 'old maids'.
Thus, years are passing and that is exactly what many are getting. They are manifesting the negativity. This also goes for women or men who say they want a new love life but they are still holding on to someone from the past that is not fulfilling a fraction of their desires. If we believe we can be, get and receive nothing better, then we will continue to get, receive nothing- causing the manifestation.

Haven't you ever noticed that it is easier to attract negativity to you than positivity? Why? because there is a lot more negative energy floating around than positive. Just turn on the evening news- you'll see. The more abundant something is, the more likely your chances of having it if you concentrate on it enough. So, for example, if you have a plate in front of you that has twenty hairy, nasty spiders on it, and one delicious piece of Belgium chocolate, if you are blind folded and hoping and praying you do not pick up the spider, chances are higher you will get the spider because of mere probability and the fact that most people will think you will select the spider due that probability which in turn may feed a lack of confidence in yourself, to beat the odds. Thus, you eat the spider!

Just because something LEANS more away from your favor, does not mean it is unattainable. Once you shift, the situation in your favor, you will see more positive results because you have changed the odds to better suit you.

Have you noticed when you are experiencing road rage, it appears that more idiots are out on the road, more train stops, more aggravation and more construction is all around? There may even be a new toll booth that you didn't realize was there and before you know it, you are cursing like a sailor and your blood pressure is rose to an alarming level.

When you tell yourself though, "If someone cuts me off, if someone is driving very slow or if someone is tail gating me, I am going to be calm and smile." Do you notice that if you have this mind set- not only do you arrive at your destination probably around the same time you would have anyway, but you feel a lot better and your day tends to be get a little better? We attract what we project.

The constantly negative person at work that is always talking about everyone, never doing his or her work and is a busy body is attracting negativity to herself. You may ignore this person. However, when we participate, we become contaminated. We attract more positivity, more 'light' if we would just say, "I am sorry you are having such a horrible day. Tomorrow could be better, if you give it a chance." Versus us thinking, "Who really gives a crap? You deserve it because you are such a nasty person!" It's okay to be human- I am just giving an example of what we do from day to day and how we never stop to consider or think about, why the same things happen to us over and over. It is a different day, a new set of players, but the same old plot, time and time again. We expect today to be just like yesterday, thus, we more times than not, receive just that- a re-run. I don't know about you, but I want and desire new, exciting and positive episodes to my life.

"You get exactly what you are FEELING."
When you are in a happy mood, it takes a lot more to get you negative than when you are in a bad mood already. For instance, if your husband or best friend is in a horrible mood, but you are in a good mood- you will feel that. You will try to bring him or her up, boost him or her up, but the more resistant he or she is, the more he or she starts to wear you down. We have to keep our distance from negative people, even the ones we love. I am not talking about your best friend or mate that is having a bad day, I am talking about that person that more times than not, is in a rotten mood and hates the world. I am talking about that contaminated person that always has something negative to say no matter what.

NEGATIVITY is contagious.

Let me repeat that...

NEGATIVITY is CONTAGIOUS.

Treat it as such.

Start using this sentence for all of your wants, "I'm so happy and grateful now that..."

1. ...NOW THAT MY BABY IS BORN HEALTHY...
2. ...NOW THAT MY MOTHER AND I'S RELATIONSHIP IS REPAIRED....
3. ...NOW THAT I CAN BE HOME TO CARE FOR MY FAMILY...
4. ...NOW THAT I AM SPIRITUALLY CONNECTED...
5. ...NOW THAT MY HUSBAND/WIFE AND I ARE IN COUNSELING...
6. ...NOW THAT I HAVE A FRESH START IN LIFE...
7. ....NOW THAT I FOUND SOMEONE WHO RESPECTS, CHERISHES AND LOVES ME...


So on, and so fourth.

I know what my calling is in life- And I embrace it. I will continue to fight my patterns of negativity as well. I no longer want to attract people, circumstances and situations into my life that are not good for me- due to my OWN magnetic appeal. That opposites attract theory is bull. Opposites rarely attract and when they do, it is VERY short lived.

If you want a healthy relationship, then YOU have to get YOURSELF together and be healthy, FIRST!

If you want a better job, start doing everything humanly possible to achieve that and start telling yourself and believing, "I AM GOING TO GET WHAT I DESERVE. I do NOT have to be unhappy 40 hours of the week." It really depends on how much we desire it! Things we REALLY want in life, we pursue with gusto. Things we want but believe we will never have, we do not pursue at all or do it with little to no zest.

It is a lot easier to be negative, than to be positive. Negativity doesn't require a lot of work because there is so much of it to choose from and someone or something is always willing to give you more of it. There are so many things wrong or could go wrong in our daily lives. Positivity requires FAITH (which is believing in things unseen), it requires LOVE (loving those people that do not love themselves nor do not love us), it requires PATIENCE (Waiting for the outcome but STILL going on about your LIFE!)
All of that is soooo hard for us! Negativity only requires a thought, and then it is all your's.You own it!

Anything worth having is worth loving, waiting, fighting and believing for and in. If we get things too easy, we do not appreciate them. We should also want, however, things that are POSITIVE and not things that are NEGATIVELY affecting our lives.

I will stop rambling, even though I could continue but I just wanted to lay that on your hearts because some of you are going through such a rough time. We can not control everything, but the things we can control, the things YOU can control, we can be proactive and that takes some discipline, some self honesty and getting to know yourself. There is no one else like you on the earth, that is amazing within itself.

Ask yourself, "What am I here for?"

and after that question, ask yourself, "What type of experience will I paint for myself today?"  Your actions, thoughts, experiences, beliefs and mindset CREATE your day, your week, your month, your year, your life.- So Mote it Be!
