Listen up!
Take your advice

The next time you find yourself giving advice to someone listen carefully  to the advice you're giving.

The tale you are hearing from the seeker of your advice is filtered through your life's experience, values and belief system. You really have no idea what is going on with someone else. You can only guess, using your sense of self as your only reference point. 

That doesn't mean there is no value to advice you give someone. There may or may not be. Your advice is based on what is going on in your life for sure and someone else's life maybe......or not at all.

You are really giving advice to yourself, that could use that advice, when you think your advice is meant for someone else. 

It doesn't matter that the specifics of someone's story are not your specifics. It does matter that the certainty with which you are advising a strategy of action for someone........somehow applies to you.

The advice you are so sure is perfect for someone else is your inner wisdom relating to your issues by way of someone else. Your inner wisdom knows ziltch about someone else but knows everything about you.

You're inner wisdom, a.k.a intuition, knows whatever is necessary for you to know for your greater life-enrichment. That's its thing.  Sometimes we ignore our inner-wisdom, aka intuition, only to regret it later. Ever do that?

You might not want to take the advice that you're giving to someone else. Could be too scary or too soon or too difficult for you right now. But hey, it's always there.  Listen up!

Cheers,
Harvey

Have you ever noticed a hidden arrow in the FedEx logo?
 fedex logo hidden message
Check the space between E and x.
Sometimes we don't see what's right in front of our eyes.
Ever happen to you?
Now, once you see the arrow you will never not see it whenever you happen to see a FedEex logo. The arrow will just pop out,  you'll see. You've been hypnotized. Zap!
Warning: Post hypnotic suggestion coming up.
Every time you happen to see a FedEx logo, not only will you also see the hidden arrow, you will be reminded that; there is no place where the pool of infinite possibilities ends and you begin.

ZAP!

A Thank You Note you might want to send
to that most wonderful person in your life;
Dear_________,
I am writing this note to tell you how much you mean to me.
When I am with you the joy and happiness I feel is indescribable.
 
No one, no thing pleasures me with delight like the thought of you.
Love poems and love songs have yet to be written that come close to
describing my excitement just being with you.
You are without a doubt a reflection of the love I must have for myself. It's nice
to know that I am on the right path.
 
My life is greatly enhanced knowing that my greater sense of completeness,
my ideal self-worth, causes wonderful people like you to be my experience.  
 
Yes, my feelings for you come from me, not from you. Get used to it.
 
Love,
--------------
P.S. You surely are someone special for you to be in my life.
 
 

Do you have someone in your life that irritates the heck out of you? Perfect. Here is a note that you might consider sending to that person;

Dear___________,

If you have been wondering why I have been avoiding you, it's because I can't stand the sight of you. 

I want to thank you for being in my life in a way that reminds me how impatient and critically judgmental I must be toward myself. And of course, I have been projecting my irritation about myself on you when it has nothing to do with you.  I'm working on it.

Have you ever thought about something you didn't want to happen
........and it happens? Ech!

Have you ever thought about what you did want to happen
........and it happens? Cool!

Do you suppose if you didn't think about something
you didn't want to happen.....it wouldn't happen?
 
Do you think if you thought, more often, about
something you wanted to happen..........it would happen?

Wadda ya think?
 
Here is your assignment:
With a ball point or felt tipped pen draw a happy face
on the inside of your thumb. Two dots for the eyes, a smile for the mouth.
With as much conviction as you can muster, affirm the following:
I'll just think thoughts I want to happen
when wide awake or while I'm nappin' !

Glance at your thumb during the course of the day.

 It will remind you that you have choices about where

to direct your thoughts. A habit is in the making.

 

Should you accept this assignment, don't be surprised when....well, you'll see.
