If you do not believe you can have it all,
then you get to choose
how much less than all you will have !
 

 

  
Sing your own song and the music will follow you!
 
 

What State Are You From?

There is a state of awareness whereby you discover that you have been duped, sold a bill of goods, hypnotized.....to believe that your happiness and peace of mind, your personal and professional success and well- being, depended upon someone or something other than your own creative magnificence.
 
There is a state of realization whereby you 'get'.... that needing to have someone in your life for you to feel complete only attracts relationships to keep you needy, keeping you from expressing the completeness you already are. 
There is a state of SELF- completeness whereby you cannot help but experience being  surrounded by totally accepting, totally supportive, totally 'cool' and loving people, without having to compromise one bit, one iota, one inch, one enth, one degree, one hair, one particle, one anything.
 
There is a state of mind whereby you automatically extract from the limitless possibilities that are available to you under any circumstance, ideas and opportunities that enhance your life in greater and greater ways.
 
There is a state of understanding whereby you have absolute clarity that one of the perks for being made in the image and likeness of God is that............. whatever is necessary to bring about greater peace and harmony, abundance where there is lack, you have now, have always had, will always have.  It's a package deal that comes with the territory for just 'being'.
 
The directions for accessing more of your natural state of being is encoded, DNA like, in your invisible essence. To break the code requires only that you remember. Remember what? Remember that  you are a magnificent expression of that which you are made in the image and likeness of.
 
There is no getting away from it, you are made of 100%  pure God. You are not all of God, but God is all of you. Get used to it!
 
Tune in to your magnificence. All else follows. Wanna bet?
 

Happy trails,

"Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you
as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you
as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Circumstances and situations do color life
but you have been given the mind to choose what the color shall be."

THE OPTIMISM HOTLINE

 
Ever notice how some people get pushed out of shape over some inconvenience whereas some do not? Ever notice how, in spite of enormous difficulties, and against all odds, there are those individuals whose inspirational lives are filled with great accomplishments.
 
It certainly demonstrates that circumstances do not determine one's quality of life, even though it may seem that way. Otherwise, everyone would react exactly the same under the same circumstances....and not everyone does. Isn't that interesting?
 
Self-concept, the way you think about your SELF determines how you react to circumstances. Think about
it. A SELF-confident person will see greater life- enhancing opportunities that are invisible to doomers and gloomers, and have dynamite creative ideas that are blocked by habitually narrow-minded fault finders, moaners and groaners.
 
The way you have been trained, conditioned, taught, hypnotized, to think and feel about your SELF (SELF- concept) shades and colors your perceptions of life. And as you have heard many times before; Perception becomes 'reality'.
 
Your SELF-concept causes your experiences of great joy and/or great stress, not circumstances, not good or bad luck, not being at the right place at the right time, or being at the wrong place at the wrong time.
 
To increase the moments of joy, success and satisfaction, requires exposing a narrow-minded view of your SELF as a habit, while realizing your innate ability to extract from the limitless possibilities available to you, under any circumstance, ideas and opportunities that enhance  your life in greater ways.  It's your call. Realizing the truth of your awesome nature is a force so powerful that, sooner rather than later, greater joy prevails.......in all ways.  
Here is your mission:
With a ball point or felt tip pen draw a happy face on the 
inside of your thumb. Two dots for the eyes, a smile for the 
mouth. Look at your thumb and with as much conviction
as you can muster, affirm the following:
I think I'll have today turn out 
stress free and really swell,
 
and just expect the best in life.
I mean really, what the hell!

Glance at your thumb during the course of the day. You will be reminded, once again, that you choose how you will experience life, and that any limiting notion you might have is a ludicrous habit  that no longer holds up to common sense. 

A narrow-minded point of view will be transformed into a more open- minded SELF-concept, causing habits that bring on stress and anxiety to be 'broken'. Sooner rather than later habits that limit you in any way disappear into  the nothingness from whence they came.

Should you accept this assignment, do not be surprised to find your SELF in the midst of greater joy, less stress, and ultimately the total absence of stress, without even trying. As a matter of fact, you can expect it. Wanna bet?

Reinforce the above affirmation every day and as you 
replace a fading happy face on your thumb. This 
assignment is to continue until your next mission.

    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
    Our deepest fear is that we are powerful
    beyond measure.
    It is our light, not our darkness
    that most frightens us.
    We ask ourselves,
    "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
    talented and fabulous?"
    Actually, who are you not be be?
    You are a child of God.
    Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
    There's nothing enlightened about
    shrinking so that other people won't feel
    insecure around you.
    We were born to make manifest the glory
    that is within us.
    It's not just some of us; it's in every one of us.
    And as we let our own light shine,
    we unconsciously give others
    permission to do the same.
    As we are liberated from our own fear,
    our presence automatically liberates others.

    Optimists hang out with other optimists. Pessimists hang out with other pessimists. If you have a bunch of pessimists in your life, or a bunch of optimists, guess what that says about you?

    It's a 'birds of a feather flock together' thing!

     

     

     

    That's a wrap!
