Thoughts aren't secrets

The bubble around our head should be the only thing of concern for us beings. It is the place that you should always be in. Not in a day dreamy kind of way, but in an awareness kind of way.

An excerpt from "As A Man Thinketh" by James Allen (1903): 

"The proof of this truth is in every person, and it therefore admits of easy investigation by systematic introspection and self-analysis. Let a man radically alter his thoughts, and he will be astonished at the rapid transformation it will affect in the material conditions of his life. Men imagine that thought can be kept secret, but it cannot; it rapidly crystallises into habit, and the habit solidifies into circumstance. Bestial thoughts crystallise into habits of drunkenness and sensuality, which solidify into circumstances of destitution and disease; impure thoughts of every kind crystallise into enervating and confusing habits, which solidify into distracting and adverse circumstances: thoughts of fear, doubt, and indecision crystallise into weak, unmanly, and irresolute habits, which solidify into circumstances of failure, indigence, and slavish dependence: lazy thoughts crystallise into habits of uncleanliness and dishonesty, which solidify into circumstances of foulness and beggary: hateful and condemnatory thoughts crystallise into habits of accusation and violence which solidify into circumstances of injury and persecution: selfish thoughts of all kinds crystallise into habits of self-seeking, which solidify into circumstances more or less distressing. On the other hand, beautiful thoughts of all kinds crystallise into habits of grace and kindliness, which solidify into genial and sunny circumstances: pure thoughts crystallise into habits of temperance and self-control, which solidify into circumstances of repose and peace: thoughts of courage, self-reliance, and decision crystallise into manly habits, which solidify into circumstances of success, plenty, and freedom: energetic thoughts crystallise into habits of cleanliness and industry, which solidify into circumstances of pleasantness: gentle and forgiving thoughts crystallise into habits of gentleness, which solidify into protective and preservative circumstances: loving and unselfish thoughts crystallise into habits of self-forgetfulness for others, which solidify into circumstances of sure and abiding prosperity and true riches."

Give it "time"

We have become a society of instant gratification...of man made things. Because we think things can happen just because we want them to, we can be easily frustrated. The realization that God, Creator, Universe, Higher Power, Source Of All That Is, doesn't cater to your every whim can be disappointed.

There is no time limit used by your higher power. If you set a time that you feel is appropriate for something to transpire, you are going to be let down every time. The amount of variables that have to take place for your wishes to be granted are to many for the human mind to decipher. 

The formula for life is simple:
Set an intention.
Action the intention.
Let the intention go.
Stay in the now and let life happen.

Don't go meddling where you shouldn't be meddling. If you are meant to have "it" you will have "it". If you aren't meant to have "it" you wont' have "it". And so goes this fascinating thing we call life. <3

No regrets

We don't take chances because we are fearful. 

Fear isn't real. It's imagined. You can change how you feel about anything at any time. All it takes is awareness. 

When you come to understand that you are the watcher of what goes on in your mind, your life changes for the better. Being the watcher of your mind allows you to keep what you want and toss away anything that isn't working for you.

For example: Let's say you really want to apply for your dream job. But your mind starts telling you all kinds of reasons why you aren't good enough for the dream job. So, out of fear of rejection, you don't apply and live with the "what ifs" until your soul passes on. 

The thing that tripped you up was listening to your mind. Don't do that. It's always going to give you negative thoughts. Be you...the watcher of the voice in your head. Shush the voice and listen to what your soul wants...to what your heart wants. 

​Live a life with no regrets. <3

It's always been you

It is not wimpy to be vulnerable. It actually takes astronomical strength to be vulnerable. I'm not talking about being raw with other beings, I am talking about being raw with yourself.

It's nobody else's business what you do with your life. And I mean nobody else! We like to think that we have to get permission from those who are close to us. Or that we are obligated to run what we want to do by others. You don't. The reason you don't is because there is nobody on this planet who has your best interests at heart. And I mean nobody.

You may think that sounds bitter, but it isn't. It is the truth. Everyone has their own life to get through. They can't be responsible for yours too. That is up to you and you only. Learning to trust yourself IS your life's mission. How well are you doing on your journey so far? <3

I am you and you are me

Accepting that we are all connected to the same energy would save us a whole pile of unnecessary antics.

These separation's that human's have imposed on one another are a lie. We are not categories, we are beings and all beings are the same.

At the core of our being we are love, respect, and tolerance. Unfortunately, we have allowed ourselves to become the opposite of that. 

God, Creator, Universe, Higher Power, Source from all that is, isn't responsible for our mayhem. We are. We did this. And because we did this, we can also undo this. It all starts with acceptance. I am you and you are me. <3

Control what you can

The only thing you have control of in this life is how you react to it. That is it. 

When you have accepted this as truth, life gets a whole lot easier. You begin to understand that your life is as is because you want it that way...good and bad. Your "vibes", frequencies, feelings, energy that you push out to the universe will return to you...good and bad. 

For you to get good, you must feel good.
For you to get bad, you must feel bad.

The only thing you have control of in this life is how you react to it. That is it. <3

Don't give up

The hardest thing I had to learn about how powerful the mind is is to "hang in there". Allowing the universe to make things happen takes a lot of patience. Many of us give up and decide that "it" isn't going to happen and because we give up it never does.

Once you have firmly determined what you are worthy to receive you have to hang on to it with undying faith. How it happens is none of your business. When it happens is none of your business. Your job is to remain persistent in the belief that you are worthy of your abundance....whatever it may be.

Determine it.
Action it.
Leave it alone.

Allow what will be to be, because whatever it is will be the right thing. Trust that to be the truth.

Change is the only constant

When someone says "this is the way we've always done it" says a lot about their comfort level for change. They must be handled with care, as change for them is a scary thing.

Then you have those like me who are constantly saying "have you thought about doing it this way or that way?". We are the thinkers. The ones who are always looking for a better way of doing things. We clash with the "this is the way we've always done it" type people.

My Gramma used to say "when you rest you rust". This can be interpreted in many ways, but I always took it to mean that you shouldn't get too comfortable in your ways. Things will change and you have to be ready to change with them. 

Change is truly the only constant in life. How you accept this truth will determine how rusty you will get. <3

Simple as that

We've been taught to make things a lot more complicated than is necessary. We've been taught that when you make a decision you need to stick with it. We've been taught so many things by other confused beings just like us that we need to let go of.

Your peace of mind is the most important thing you will ever own. If you don't have peace in your mind, you have some work to do to get it there. It isn't an easy journey and is called "work" for a reason. You will have to revisit everything you've ever been taught and determine what is yours to keep and what needs to go.

If you decide to complicate the process by listening to your ego, your journey will be bumpy. If you decide to simplify the process by listening to your soul, your journey will be smooth. You get to decide. It truly is that simple. <3

As I've progressed through my journey to understanding how powerful the mind truly is, I've learned to critique what I am thinking and what I am saying. I've had to do this because what I've thought and said has happened after I was thinking it or saying it. 

If you are a person who hasn't figured out how powerful your mind is, you are most likely struggling through life. The struggle is because you are allowing your mind to run rampant and there is a price to pay for having it do that.

Being unaware of how your thoughts ripple out into the universe brings chaos to one's being. To quiet the chaos requires major work on one's self. Do the work and reap the reward. Don't do the work and life will continue to run you over. I hope you do the work. <3
