If you do not believe you can have it all,

then you get to choose

how much less than all you will have !

 

INVESTIGATE THIS! - PART I 
"Circumstance does not make the man.
Circumstance reveals man to himself."
...........Emerson.
What an awesome thought, huh? I guess that's why;

--some people think the Grand Canyon is no 'big deal'......while some people are inspired.
--some people are confident about what some people shake with insecurity about.
--some people are so productive no matter how 'handicapped' they are.
--some people love to walk in the rain.......while some people sneer at every drop.
--some people find love no matter how 'un-appealing' they may appear.
--some people remain lonely no matter how 'appealing' they may appear.
--some people always see opportunity where some people see 'zilch'.
--some people always prosper....no matter what.
--some people always struggle....no matter what.

--some people are so fulfilled......no matter how little they have.  
--some people always complain and kvetch, no matter how much they have.

It  seems that we are not victims of circumstance, even though, at times, we may behave that way. We behave that way because of a habit, picked up from whom- ever, whenever, of believing we are less than we really are.

The ingredient that is essential for getting the most out of life, regardless of circumstances, regardless how difficult something might appear, regardless of the odds.......is a mind-set that is anchored with a belief that implies;  whatever is essential for you to know for enhancing your life in greater and greater ways, regardless of circumstances, regardless of anything...........YOU HAVE NOW!

Of course, to really believe such an idea, it is necessary to investigate the validity of such an idea. To SELF-discover there is more to you than you were previously led to believe, is the stuff (Energy) that forms a 'new' belief/habit that takes you over, (that's what 'beliefs and habits' do), empowering you beyond your habitual 'finite' conditionig. SELF-discovery IS discovering the 'more-ness' of your SELF that sees past illusions of limitation into the reality of greater  creative possibilities that are not available to a habitual close-minded person.

There is nothing; not the weather, not the economy, not your mother-in-law, not your lousy childhood, not your boss, not the competition, not your rotten EX, not the past, not physical limitations, not the water, not bad luck, not anyone, not anything, that can keep you from your desire for greater joy, success, peace and harmony, except your unawareness that;

whatever is essential for you to know for enhancing your life in greater and greater ways, regardless of circumstances, regardless of anything...................

YOU HAVE NOW!

Of course, to really believe such an idea, it is necessary to investigate the validity....yada, yada, yada.

Happy trails and tidings of great joy,

Harvey

P.S. Thank you for your kind words re: The 11th Commandment newsletter.

THE OPTIMISM HOTLINE

 

Isn't it interesting......of all the unlimited possibilities you can experience during the course of a day, you wind up with......whatever you wind up with?

 

We extract from the limitless possibilities of each day only the quality of experience that resonates with our beliefs that make up our SELF-concept.

 

Someone with beliefs that express a narrow-minded, victim-minded SELF-concept will extract possibilities of a far more limiting nature than someone with beliefs that express an open-minded, confident SELF-concept. That's the way it works. 

Sometimes we may forget that we are not born with our beliefs. We pick up beliefs from others. So, it is with absolute certainty that any belief you have that is the cause to recurring experiences that are less than fulfilling is something you were conned into.......without knowing you were being conned.

You bought into someone else's limiting ideas about life, hook, line, and thinker, believing their limiting ideas to be valid. You were 'conned'. Sucker!

 

The great lesson in life is to ultimately realize that our beliefs decide how we react to 'anything'. That's why, not everyone reacts exactly the same way to the same circumstances. Think about it.

 

Is it possible to believe with great conviction that there is nothing of a fearful or limiting nature you do not have the where-with-all , the Potential, to overcome? Why not?

Here is your assignment:

With a ball point or felt tip pen draw a happy face on the inside of your thumb. Two dots for the eyes and a smile for the mouth. Look at your thumb, and with

as much conviction you can muster, affirm the following:

Today I Will Remember

There's No Answer I Can't Find-

No Matter What The Problem,

It's No Problem For My Mind!!

 

Glance at your thumb during the course of the day.

You will awaken the Potential within your SELF to do its thing.

And that is, to reveal your innate wisdom and creativity in greater ways.

 

Should you decide to accept this assignment,

don't be surprised to find yourself expressing greater

wisdom and creativity in greater and greater ways.

As a matter of fact, you can expect it. Wanna bet?

  Reaffirm the above affirmation when replacing a fading happy face.

 

This assignment is to continue until your next mission.
