Happpppppy Friday!

Soooooo you should see my Hydrangea Bush! I live in the fog belt and it is flourishing. Must have been that Miracle Grow stuff—and then I have an ah ha moment!

I heard recently— ENERGY GROWS WHERE ENERGY GOES—-

Yup—and here’s my ah ha moment— I realize that whatever I’m putting my energy on is just like putting Miracle Grow on what I’m giving my energy to!!!!

Now–not that this is really a new concept for me– HOWEVER–thinking of it in this way really jolted me—I had this quick movie of my recent life float by and I joyfully saw how that Miracle Grow concept had brought to bloom incredible– and I do mean incredible–successes that I had directed energy and focus to— hooray —-wellllllll—- then—- eweeeeeeeeeee- — I was treated to  a wee little view of that ole Miracle Grow concept growing what I was surely not wanting.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaa —let me reign this in! Soooooo–my energy in a particular area I was working on was going to– focused on— the ABSENCE OF what I was working on bringing in!

Now this strategy was not exactly on my to do list!!

I took a deep breath–ok quite a few deep breaths– and shifted–yesssssssss—to what I intended to bring in– the overwhelming yummy good ENERGY I was feeling was immediate. It happens that fast— indeed we are that powerful!

ENERGY GROWS WHERE ENERGY GOES!!!!!

Soooooo off I go equipped with plenty of Miracle Grow—enthusiastically anticipating the blooms of my redirected energy!

P.S. There is a summertime special on Miracle Grow—get some now!! 🙂

Hello and Happy Friday!

All day long—–you are seduced—–yes—-all —-and I do mean all—-day long——

YIKES—into what —you ask???

I mean really——-I don’t know about you—but if I ‘m being seduced—-I’d  seriously like to know exactly what I am allowing myself to be seduced into!

You have one massive seduction mechanism.

The power of your thoughts—-the suggestions you are giving to your self—-all day long—- seemingly—-so  innocently seduce you into believing them. The thing is—YOU fully allow it to happen—over and over and over.

Now that is one seduction I want to be in charge of!! NO question about that.

Richard Bach says:

“Argue for your limitations and sure enough they’re yours!’

How often do YOU do that? How often do you speak about your limitations?? How often do you convince yourself—and rationalize  that you are not actually really arguing for your limitations—but rather just stating what is??

IS THAT– THEN– WHAT YOU WANT????????

How often are you literally seducing yourself into believing them????

Do you find yourself saying “seemingly” innocuous things such as… I never have, I can’t, I never do, now is not the right time and maybe it will never be the right time, I haven’t done that before, it will be hard, I’m too old, I’m too young, there’s no time for me, I’m not smart enough,  my kids are too young  or too old, I’m always tired at the end of the week/day, this always happens to me, the economy is holding me back,  maybe I’m meant to be alone, finding a good guy/girl is soooooo hard, bad things keep happening to me, it’s just part of getting old or of being young, I never have enough money, I always attract, that is too expensive, I can’t go on vacation now, I’m just not good at……..etc…etc………..Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh…..

Here’s the thing—you can always find people that will agree with you and maybe even form support groups around it…BUT is that what you really really really want?

Do you really want to be in that place of “arguing for your limitations’??????

Open the door today….. invite your limitations to take a friggin flying leap out the door..and ask yourself…

What if that weren’t true?

Be in charge of your own seduction….Mmmmm……isn’t just the very thought of that freeing????

Now— that —IS  something to think about.

HELLO!

What if I told you that there was this cool part of your brain that acts like a heat seeking missile and programs  your  mind to work on your goal whether you realize it or not???

Yes—it is real–and you can very simply and powerfully activate that beautiful part of your brain to go on autopilot and get you what you really really–I mean  REALLLLLY want—- now!

This glorious part of your brain is called the Reticular Activating System. It is very, very ‘real’. I mean—imagine if you could decide on what you wanted and automatically ‘something’ went to work to make sure that you got just that! WOWEEE!!!

Imagine if you didn’t have to consciously look for opportunities, if you didn’t have to think about ‘how’ you were going to do the things you wanted to do, imagine if the opportunities themselves presented themselves to you all by themselves ‘as if by magic’.

Ooooooohhh—Yummy magic—I bet you are thinking right now—–Hey–I’d like some of that magic!

Quick—what do I do?????? Gimme my magic….

First let me say now that this is not science fiction, its science fact. You DO possess the ability to set your unconscious mind on auto pilot to assist you in getting those goals you so deeply desire.

So –what the heck is your RAS (Reticular Activating System)?

Let’s imagine you are at a party and there is a lot of people talking, music playing and general party noise.  You are talking to your friend and the two of you can hear each other just fine. Now … you can hear all of the talking and noise going on around you. The 30 or so people all talking at the same time- however– make for a ‘crowd chatter’ none of which you are paying any particular attention to, or are you? If the music and talking just stopped instantly, would you be able to repeat what everyone in the room had just said? Probably not.  Does that mean you didn’t hear it? Absolutely not!

Now imagine that you are back at the party and the hustle and bustle is going on, you are back chatting to your friend and amongst the 30 or so people talking, someone says YOUR name.  Now.. you heard THAT didn’t you !? …… your ears perk up, you turn your head and you look straight over to where the sound came from, often directly into the eyes of the person who said it. Now how does THAT work !?

Well, your oh so cool RAS is like a filter between your unconscious and your conscious mind. It is a pleasure seeking, and recognition system that works in the background, in your Unconscious mind to identify, recognize, and bring into our conscious awareness anything that is important to us.  Guess what else it looks for? It looks for affirmations, evidence to back up our beliefs and brings them into our awareness as it finds them. That my dear friends— is why goal setting is so important, or rather why EFFECTIVE  CLEAR goal setting is so important!!  It is also why it is so friggin important that we use only empowering language when we communicate with ourselves.

I am really trying to make a critically helpful point here—so listen up. J  Have you ever noticed how if you say you can’t do something you are always right? Conversely—if you say you can do something—you can! Henry Ford said ‘If you think you can or you think you can’t, you are right.

REMEMBER—Your unconscious mind only deals in positives, so it takes the words ‘I can’t’ as instruction to DO the process of can’t, and then your RAS looks for evidence to back up your belief! WHOAAAA!

The same thing is true if you state things in the positive, if you say ‘I can’ then INSTANTLY your RAS sets about looking for evidence to back that up, brings it into your awareness and re-enforces the belief that you ‘CAN’. Can I hear an AMEN HERE??!

Your RAS looks everywhere to find the evidence or pleasurable item it is seeking, including what you have going on internally! Ever heard the phrase ‘Fake it till you make it’??  I prefer to say we create the vision in our mind of how we DO want it—step into it—and then add the magic element of feeling and VOILA–your RAS gets real busy to make it happen!

You see once you have given the suggestion or vision  to your unconscious mind your RAS will go to work to seek pleasure and closure and to ‘prove’ your suggestion to be correct!!

What is your RAS seeking to prove correct for you right now????

Cheers to you!

Hello and happy weekend to you!

EVERYTHING has energy. EVERYTHING is energy.

Think about it. Ice is just water with a certain energy applied to it. Daylight comes as the energy of the sun warms our earth. A guitar being played brings a vibrational sound and energy to those who are around it. A new baby makes everyone feel so good. I could go on and on—I think you get the picture.

You are part of the everything of everything. You have an energy signature that you literally leave everywhere you go. Now– I don’t know about you—but I’m pretty thoughtful about what I put my actual written signature to, because of the meaning and power it has.

Are you equally as careful about your own energy signature????? Do you just randomly deposit positive and clean energy wherever you go? Or do you often sort of leak out a not so positive energy signature, leaving those you just came in contact with feeling like they need to shake off the not so good feelings you just deposited with them???? Whewwwww!

That—is a powerful thought to ponder.

Come on—we all know how friggin good it feels being around some people. I mean there are those people –that for me– just even hearing their voice alone makes me feel good. Yup. Sign me up for more of their energy signatures!

And–then—- there are the people—come on —you know who I am talking about. The ones that sort of envelope you with the drama or dread of the day. Maybe it’s just that sort of mild river of grey misery conversation or just that sort of yucky, sticky  feeling you get when they call or are around you. The thing is—I humbly admit I have been there—leaving my not so sweet or positive energy signature  lying around. Ohhh yuck.

BUT hold on—-

Here is the GOOD news. Just like you can melt an ice cube by applying energy—or mash a potato into some yummy creamy mashed potatoes–you can change YOUR energy signature—just like that. There is only one person that can do it. It is you. For years I was a believer in the old story—if “they” would change– then my energy will feel better. Blahhh blahh blahhh. THEY will never change. Sure–maybe it is time to exit stage right, so to speak—and move on—however—-it is ALL—I mean ALL –up to you.

Let me say a word about emotion here. I know as human beings that our emotions play a HUGE part in our energy signature from day to day or sometimes from minute to minute.

Pay attention here—this is so cool to understand. Emotion is actually energy in motion. WHOAAAA!!! Yessiree–it is actually meant to MOVE. It wants to move. It does not want to stick around. The thing is–that we so often invite it to stick around. Better yet—we stuff it –cause it doesn’t feel good! UGH! by doing that –we actually clog up our whole energetic system.

Hellllllo—can we have an energy plumber here??!!

Here’s what to do—feel it. Yes–the all of it. Breathe through it…..then breathe again. Feel it–but do NOT become it. I have used the balloon analogy before. It’s an easy one. Imagine that the current emotion is like a balloon with a string on it—just see it passing by–and floating awaaaaaaaaay—do NOT tie the friggin string around your finger!!! Quit it!

Let the emotion move—-as it is designed to—then voila— you now have an oh so lovely energy signature begging to leave its initials all over the place!

WOWWWWEEE—-look at all those balloons floating away!!

WOOHOOO FOR YOU!!

Hello—

I have one simple powerful thought for you today—

Our job is to constantly uncover who we reallllllllllllly are—just like Michelangelo simply chipped away at the excess stone to reveal the already in existence beautiful sculpture——YOU are magnificent—-go on and shine–big time!!

Think about it—-ask yourself—-Who am I covering up?????
