Breaking Out

Have you had the feeling that your getting closer to your true calling, but just not breaking out? You’re not alone. Many people are feeling a stronger sense of a higher purpose, but can’t make that transition. I’ve developed many of my own personal techniques to help me through different sticking points and would like to share one now with you.

This exercise will work best for those looking to expand into a new world. One that they may know that is calling them, but can’t seem to figure out how to make such a seemingly giant leap.

Close your eyes and let your imagination take over. Picture yourself encapsulated in an egg. Yes, you are about to “hatch” into your future. Create as real an experience for yourself as possible. See the smooth hard shell all around you as you calmly and deliberately pound on the surface with you fist. With an attitude of knowing, punch a hole with your fist right through the brittle opaque shell. As you take your first look of the new world outside, you get an overwhelming feeling of “I did it”! Accomplishment and joy fill your heart. Use this moment to create as real of an experience as you possibly can every day. Before long, you’ll see examples in real life to give gratitude to and have begun your real new world journey. Good luck!

Why let it go, if you love something?

If you love something set it free.  If it comes back to you, it was meant to be.

Why would you let go of something you love?  Because by holding on too tightly, you’re expressing lack.  Your vibrational essence to the Universe is like saying “I’m LUCKY to have this, and I could loose it at any time.  I don’t really deserve this so therefore I will control it”  The Universe’s vibrational match essentially says “You ARE lucky to have that, I’ll see what I can do to try to keep you insecure.  I’ll give you the tug-of-war you requested.”

To truly love something is to let it BE free.  You should never have to let go, because you never held on.  The act of holding on to love is an expression of resistance.  The same type of resistance you would experience anytime you are fighting for something.  Certainly in every battle there is a looser and a winner right?  Well, actually the winner is always the one who didn’t see much of a fight.  The winner knows deep down what the outcome will be.  The looser sees the battle as  win or loose.  The winner knows only win.

If you relax and understand that you have full control of your life through your desires rather than you desperation.

Knowing what it is you want, and expressing that as a desire will always produce results that will serve you.  After that desire is sent out, simply know that everything will take it’s perfect timing to get to you.  The need to force things along will only perpetuate its delay in getting to you.

Once you receive your request (weather or not it is exactly what you had in mind) you must give thanks for it coming in your existence.  As you gain the hang of it, you will know that being thankful for even less then perfect manifestations, give you the power to move forward into better matches from your desires.

Donation Vibration

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you’re approached for a donation?  Seriously stop and answer this question.  For myself I know I was uncomfortable.  I nearly always said no, and never felt right about it.  It was just some type of a routine, without any thought as to why.

There is a direct relationship with our vibrational alignment between giving and receiving.  The more we give from a stand point of plenty and appreciation, the more we emit the vibration of abundance and plenty.  This vibration is mirrored back in our live to match our vibration towards more than enough.

If you want to make more money, then donate more now.  A rule of thumb has always been 10% of your gross towards donations.  Many find this to be a huge amount and find excuses as to why they can’t afford that much.  There in lies the problem, believing you can’t afford it.  This instantly sends out the signal of lack, and lack you shall experience.

Instead I suggest looking at where you want to be financially and donate from the mindset that you already receive that amount.  When you feel as though you have plenty to give, miraculously  your situation reflects that vibration in life.

Past memories holding you Down?

AnchorAh, our past.  If it were not for our memory, the past wouldn’t exist….right?  The older we grow, the more memories we have of the good, bad and the ugly.  I’ve had the pleasure of more good than ugly, but then again, I intentionally forget what I wish not to remember.  How convenient you might be thinking…  Yes, it’s a practice I use to let-go of any anchor memories that might be slowing down my ship.

Our minds do an amazing job at seeking out what we focus our attention on.  The tricky part about this process is that words of negation are excluded from the “search engine” that is our minds.  That is to say, if you think silently and consistently  don’t worry about stress, don’t worry about stress, don’t …The mind processes “worry about stress”.  The “don’t” is a negating word that the mind doesn’t use.  So, in this example our mind will seek out reasons to worry about stress.

Thinking of a past memory (remembering) and projecting a future event (visualizing) are exactly the same to the mind.  As far as the mind is concerned, if you’re dreaming of something you wish to happen, it processes these images the same as though they already happened.  The more you bring them to the forefront of your awareness, the more priority they receive.

So how can all this help deal with past issues?

Understanding the important properties of how the mind functions are key to letting go of haunting past issues, and creating wonderful new experiences.

Let’s use an example of a past public speaking event that went horrifically wrong.  While you were at the microphone  your mouth dried up and you began to sweat profusely.  The nerves got so bad, that half way through your presentation you walked away from the podium crying.  (can you see this happening?)  You now are so fearful of talking to large groups of people, that you passed on a great career opportunity.  This could apply to any number of things that happened in the past, and as a result, keep you from your desires.  Every time you think of your fear, replace the image in the mind with a scenario that worked perfectly.  So in this case,  see the mic as your assistant helping you get your important message out.  The words are flowing effortlessly as you hit your stride broadcasting with confidence.  Everything simply feels right.  Your walking off stage with pride from a well delivered speech.

Doesn’t that sound a whole lot better?  It didn’t really happen that way, but who cares.  It’s the feelings associated with that event/person/place that your looking to alter.  At first it may seem like a stretch to change history by simply replacing it with something better.  Your only looking to knock off the sharp edges at the beginning.   Take your time and build upon your new vision by tracking your progress.  Baby steps is key to any overwhelming challenge, along with consistency.  Set up a journal or note pad and celebrate any feelings of progress.  Your taking control and it feels great.

In addition to changing how the memory resonates with our feelings, it is essential to make peace with the problem.  Think of the words surrendering, accepting and allowing as letting go of a rope tied to an anchor.  Do this in your mind.  Very quickly you see the tail end of that rope fade off into the distance along with what ever was holding you back.  You’ll know when you’ve really done this right by letting out a huge sigh of relief.  Do it daily as needed.

Replacing fears and ugly situations with desires of how you wished them to be, will in time, allow you to overcome the past and realize your dreams!

Is Money on your Mind?

Money on mindI always seem to have money thoughts running through my head.  Problem is, usually I’m calculating things I need to buy vs what I have to spend.  If this sounds familiar, read on.

Money, or better described as Currency, is misleading stuff for a couple of reason.  First of all, thinking of your money is an unconscious event for most of us.  We generally keep a running tally between the amount we have vs  how much we will need to pay the bills this month, and how much we’ll be making from paycheck to paycheck.  It may work, but it could be keeping you on a financial treadmill without building anything to put in the bank for yourself.

Money and The Law of Attraction are an interesting pair.  When we focus our attention on something (wanted or unwanted) (conscious or unconscious) we get the essence of that vibration.  The big picture is that when were keeping track of how much is left, in reality were worried there won’t be enough.  Lack has a funny way of hiding in the most innocent act of our mental book keeping.

Breaking this cycle is easy.  Believe it or not bills are your friend.  What does a bill mean to you?  Does it represent someone who wants money from you?  If it does, you might be interested in this exercise.  See every bill as a gift.  Say thank you to the bill when it arrives in the mail.  This bill is for services or goods you already received.  Lets take your cell phone bill.  Now I agree there are several additional charges with tax and all that, but let us look at your usage.   You were billed for something you already were able to enjoy.  That is a new spin on things, eh?  You didn’t have to pay until after you used the air time.  This wouldn’t be the case with a normal pay phone.

We need to check ourselves from time to time and think more about what it is that we’re thankful for.  We miss countless opportunities everyday to give thanks for the things we appreciate in our lives.  The easiest and simplest way that I know is to write for 10 minutes everyday on what I’m grateful for.  It really becomes a challenge to seek new things everyday, but this effort manifests as an unfolding stream of good fortune.

Try this out for a couple of weeks.  Soon you’ll find paying the bills feels good.  Money needn’t be worried about because you know there is plenty, and you’ll see it opportunities of free money everywhere.

Layoff Blues: What to do when you get the news

Unemployment officeAre you, or someone you know going through some tough times from a recent company downsizing?  It seems to be quite popular with employers these days.  The first thing you should know is that your not alone.  At the time of publishing  the unemployment rate is 9.6% according to U.S. bureau of labor statistics.

Holy cow, that’s a lot of people!  Well, if your one of them please keep reading, this could be a blessing in disguise.

There you are quietly trying to look busy in your cubicle when….your supervisor comes by and asks, “can I see you for a minute?”
When all is said and done, you drive home in disbelief  that this was happening to you.  Perhaps you found yourself shouting at the steering wheel “WHY ME?”
The answer to that question may not be obvious, but the truth of the matter is that your probably better off.  Had you had feelings of leaving anyway?  Were you in the process of looking for another job when this occurred?  No matter what the reason, your unemployed and scared.  The big question is, how can you turn this around to your advantage?

First you want to calm down and focus your attention on moving forward.  Blaming yourself will only create a situation that will spiral out of control.  Blaming the company, your boss, management or other employees will also create more heart ache than it  is worth.   You want to get back on your feet, and begin to see a new life for yourself.

If you can, try to be grateful for the job and people you left behind.   This job was there for you when you were hired, and for that give thanks.  I understand this sounds down right crazy at a time like this, but try it.  By genuinely giving thanks, you send out a vibration of appreciation for prosperity.  Even though you no longer are working at your old job, being grateful for it while it was there will help create the next job.  Purge all feelings of anger or resentment as quickly as you can.  Write out all the nasty  feelings your going through, and run it through the shredder.  This might take several days of writing and shredding, but letting go of the old job is the only way to move towards the next.  So, do what needs to be done to make peace with your situation.

Letting go of your bad feelings is going to be the most difficult thing you might ever do.  I understand.  But if you continue to hold any negative energy in your subconscious, you will likely find yourself wasting your efforts being mad, rather than finding a new career.

Second, take the time to write out what it is that you want to do.  Maybe this layoff came at a perfect time.  Perhaps you can now do something that you WANT to do.  I know money and benefits are probably the only thing driving your job search.  I get the fact that you would like to make the same money or more than you were making.  If that’s the case, money will always control your life.  This is an opportunity to find something you would love doing, but never had the balls to go after.

Believe it or not, happiness is way more important than money.  There are miserable millionaires who wish they could give the money back, if only to be carefree and happy again.   Seeing a layoff as a blessing in disguise will be a strech for many of you reading this, but try it on for size and see if it allows any new career ideas to cross your mind.

NOW is the time to harness the energy your feeling and focus it toward something you were never strong enough to leap into.

I wrote this article to lend my sliver of hope for anyone who might be able to use it.  If you, or someone you know needs a shoulder to lean on, feel free to contact me.  9.6% of Americas need a friend right now.

Thank You

Are you lifting your WEALTH weights?

free_money_muscleCatchy huh?  But if you want true wealth and prosperity, your going to have to feel the burn.  Everyone I know (myself included)  desires more lean muscle mass and a healthier looking body.  But, there is a great mystery as to how to get there.  Sure you could follow the  tried and true method of working out and eating fewer empty calories, but that seems too easy.

Well, the same applies to wealth and wealth consciousness.  Everyone I know (yep, me too) desires more wealth and a healthier portfolio.

So whats up?  In both cases you have to believe you can actually do it.  So confidence is the first step.  Do affirmations, write notes to yourself or even hire a coach to keep you focused and on track.

Once your sure, and I mean certain you’re going to achieve your dream, then step two.   Act from a point of wealth consciousness.  What does this mean?  It means your not cheap!  It means you think “I always have enough money to pay for all the things I desire.”  It means, just like that perfect body needs quality foods, your wealth consciousness needs quality thoughts.

I like to use the gas station as a good example to see where clients thoughts are.  Automotive performance aside, do you buy the cheap gas because you’re saving money?  On a 20 gallon fill up, with premium gas being $0.25 more per gallon, you’d save  $5.00/tankful.  Now, do you think wealthy thinking is concerned with $5.00 per tank?  Apply this example to any purchase that you make.  Do you always go for the cheap because you believe it is saving you money?  Sometimes the less expensive items work just as well as the premium ones, but the reasoning is what differs  the wealth thinker and the poor.

As you begin to understand why cheap thinking produces a cheap lifestyle, you’ll respect money in a new way.  Foolishly wasting money will only make you a fool.  Understand that you are worthy of the finer things in life.  Beautiful cars, boats and vacation homes are created for people.  People just like you.  Why would you think anyone else has more right to wealth and riches?  Start off with small items in the beginning.  Slowly you’ll see the money just comes into your life because you’ll expect these royal treats.  Expand on this concept, and live your desires.

Flex those wealth muscles once and a while and feel the burn.  Adapting a new routine isn’t always easy, but if you keep focused and consistent, you’ll see increasing results.

Thank You? The ultimate tool of success!

66543From an everyday perspective, how many times do you say thank you?  Who thinks about stuff like this?  I do.  From a Law of Attraction perspective, thank you is responsible for generating more things you are grateful for.  Let us explore this in more depth.

For most people WORDS are just WORDS.  They have meaning when spoken, read or heard  but at the end of the day, they were just a form of communication without any real value.  Now for others, who know the principles of the Law of Attraction and the vibration associated with those words, the real value is yet to come.

Where do you think the voice in your head is?  I mean, is it in-your-head, or through-out you?  Again, you may wonder..who cares?  But this is building on a bigger point.  And that is, when you think or speak about or to someone, you are sending out a vibration along with the words that are being heard.

Of all the words you can speak, Thank You is among the top in producing high vibrations.  These high vibrations are a sort of signal to the Universe that you would like more of the same in a very powerful way.  There is good emotion wrapped into these words that carry far beyond the sound of your voice.  Far beyond even, the thoughts in your head.

The simple act of thinking “Thank You” to a green light, or parking space can and will send a signal to the Universe.  In essence, what you are saying is-”I like green lights and parking spaces, keep’em coming”.

The reverse is also true as well….

How often have you seen a penny on the ground and walked right on past it.  In essence, what you are saying is-”NO THANK YOU, I don’t want free MONEY”  But if you take the time to bend down and pick it up, possibly even thinking Thank You, you send out a positive vibration that FREE MONEY is perfectly acceptable by you.

Thank You works on everything, Try it and see.     Thank You for reading my post.

I Had No Idea

These are simply facts. What this means is the world is becoming one. Every corner of the planet wants to know and do more, faster. There is a reason for all this information being exchanged, and we’ll soon figure it out together. We are all here to do more and feel good, so then good is the only logical outcome to these changes. ~Dan
