The New You Right Now

Take a look at your life, the things you like and the things you don’t like about your current reality.  Do you want to change your entire life?  Sometimes we feel stuck and we just need a little shift in perspective to begin to change our reality into something we are excited to experience.

To do this we need to change something.  If you keep doing the same thing and expecting different results then you are experiencing the definition of

insanity according to Albert Einstein.  So what is it that we need to change?

Often the answer to life’s questions are contained in their opposites.  What I mean by that is you have to shift your focus from what you have always done and look at the opposite action.  If you keep doing what you are doing then you will keep getting what you are getting in life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Changing your thinking will work its way down into changing your life but in order to change your thinking often you have to open your mind to new ideas and concepts that are so far outside of your typical reality that they may seem strange or uncomfortable.  

Being uncomfortable or feeling awkward is often the result of bouncing up against one of the walls of your mental boxes.  We want to grow, expand our awareness, achieve our dreams and become more spiritual but in order to do this we have to redefine and remove our mental boxes.

So as a practice, tell your inner voice to listen to what I am about to say, breathe it in and feel what the idea means.  Pretend for one moment it IS true so that you can experience the impact of this new idea in your life.

The present is not the result of the past, and the future is not the result of the present. 

What does this mean?  Well I am going to allow the channeling of Bashar to shed some light on this before I continue.  Check out this short yet mind blowing explanation about the power you have over your reality right now!

Quotes From a Sioux Indian Chief That Will Make You Question Everything About Our Society

Luther Standing Bear was an Oglala Lakota Sioux Chief who, among a few rare others such as Charles Eastman, Black Elk and Gertrude Bonnin occupied the rift between the way of life of the Indigenous people of the Great Plains before, and during, the arrival and subsequent spread of the European pioneers. Raised in the traditions of his people until the age of eleven, he was then educated at the Carlisle Indian Industrial Boarding School of Pennsylvania, where he learned the english language and way of life. (Though a National Historical Landmark, Carlisle remains a place of controversy in Native circles.)

Like his above mentioned contemporaries, however, his native roots were deep, leaving him in the unique position of being a conduit between cultures. Though his movement through the white man’s world was not without “success” — he had numerous movie roles in Hollywood — his enduring legacy was the protection of the way of life of his people.

By the time of his death he had published 4 books and had become a leader at the forefront of the progressive movement aimed at preserving Native American heritage and sovereignty, coming to be known as a strong voice in the education of the white man as to the Native American way of life. Here, then, are 10 quotes from the great Sioux Indian Chief known as Standing Bear that will be sure to disturb much of what you think you know about “modern” culture.

1) Praise, flattery, exaggerated manners and fine, high-sounding words were no part of Lakota politeness. Excessive manners were put down as insincere, and the constant talker was considered rude and thoughtless. Conversation was never begun at once, or in a hurried manner.

2) Children were taught that true politeness was to be defined in actions rather than in words. They were never allowed to pass between the fire and the older person or a visitor, to speak while others were speaking, or to make fun of a crippled or disfigured person. If a child thoughtlessly tried to do so, a parent, in a quiet voice, immediately set him right.

3) Silence was meaningful with the Lakota, and his granting a space of silence before talking was done in the practice of true politeness and regardful of the rule that ‘thought comes before speech.’…and in the midst of sorrow, sickness, death or misfortune of any kind, and in the presence of the notable and great, silence was the mark of respect… strict observance of this tenet of good behavior was the reason, no doubt, for his being given the false characterization by the white man of being a stoic. He has been judged to be dumb, stupid, indifferent, and unfeeling.

4) We did not think of the great open plains, the beautiful rolling hills, the winding streams with tangled growth, as ‘wild’. Only to the white man was nature a ‘wilderness’ and only to him was it ‘infested’ with ‘wild’ animals and ‘savage’ people. To us it was tame. Earth was bountiful and we were surrounded with the blessings of the Great Mystery.

Change Your Thinking

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.

One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs.

His bed was next to the room’s only window.

The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.

The men talked for hours on end.

They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation..

Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.

As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine this picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by.

Although the other man could not hear the band – he could see it in his mind’s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days, weeks and months passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep.

She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window.

Your Soul Is Trying To Help You Make Money

Your Soul is THE most badass business tool available to you. If you express who you are, at Soul-level, through your services and products, but also the way you market, sell, and structure your business … well, financial success is the happy byproduct. Even if you’re not the world’s greatest marketer, and even if you don’t have oodles of sales training.

Your Soul is actually constantly trying to serve you in making more money! Your Soul did NOT come here to experience being able to pay the bills. You just have to learn how to recognize its attempts to assert itself in your business.

Here are three ways you can learn to recognize how your Soul is already trying to show you your path to financial success in your business:

1. Your Real “Why”

When we set new income goals for ourselves, we often find practical rationalizations for what we want to do with the money. We tell ourselves that we’ll pay off our debts, put money towards the kids’ college funds, and take some nice family vacations. Maybe we even want to upgrade our lifestyle – a nicer home, luxury cars, and someone else to do our laundry.

But behind the reasonable lifestyle goals usually lurks a different “why.” It’s an unreasonable use for money, a quirky, even eccentric desire to express yourself into this reality in a highly unique way.

Your Soul-based “why” probably has nothing to do with what financial planners tell you to do with your income. It has nothing to do with being reasonable, or being practical. But pursuing this “why” will accelerate the amount of income you make like nothing else!

I’ll give you a real-life example.

A friend of mine is a highly successful entrepreneur whose company trains IT professionals in something so geeky, I don’t even fully understand it.

He bought a second home just a few miles from his old one, mainly for its huge yard. And then, over the course of several years, he proceeded to design and build himself a two million dollar pool, including three volcanoes. Yes, the man put volcanoes in his backyard! His pool is a crazy play ground full of hidden bar areas, hot tubs, and slides. There’s even a wine cave and a stage area on top, so that he can host live bands!

There is nothing practical about this pool. Sure, he may end up renting out his backyard for parties. But building this pool was his passion. He just … did it. Guess what happened to his business? That’s right … he’s making more money than ever. He listened to his Soul’s desire for self-expression. And while, reasonably, building two million dollars worth of volcanoes as a backyard playground shouldn’t be lucrative … it was.

Money is a tool for creative self-expression. And if you allow money to express the real YOU, your Soul, the spiritual Being that you are … you will attract more of it!

So pay attention to the slightly crazy, impractical longings that arise, over and over again. Maybe it’s a deep desire to collect cars. Or homes. Or travel the world in a sail boat. Don’t do anything irresponsible, but LISTEN.  Your Soul is trying to help your business grow!

2. Creative Flow

Most of us feel it when we’re doing our “work” – you know, the thing we get paid for, whether that’s creating art or coaching clients, or zipping through someone’s tax return. It’s why we love our work. In fact, it’s most likely that delicious state of creative flow that we feel during our work that made us want to get into business to begin with.

The funny thing is, as soon as get down to the business of business-building, we seem to abandon inspired creativity for “proven” marketing strategies, sales funnels, and other people’s systems. So many entrepreneurs I know dislike marketing and sales. Personally, I think they’re just doing it wrong!

We know we’re aligning to our Soul’s authentic self-expression (which, remember, always results in major cash flow!!) when we feel the same sense of creative flow in our marketing, sales, and administrative endeavors as we do in our actual “work.” Which means none of it feels like work! Effort? Sure. As I’m sitting here, writing these words, I’m engaged in effort. Am I “working?” Some people might think so! But the Truth is that I followed inspiration and when I’m done writing, I’m going to feel pretty darn awesome and energized.

Gratitude Journal Ideas

One amazingly powerful way to become the kind of person who naturally attracts more happiness, better health, deeper relationships and more overall success into their lives, is to be the kind of person who is grateful for everything that is going on in your life RIGHT NOW.

Remember, life is about the JOURNEY not the DESTINATION.

Grateful people are happier, it’s so easy to always be looking for the next goal to achieve, or to say sweeping statements like “I’ll be happy when….”, but it takes a special kind of inspirational person to be grateful for where their life is right NOW… no matter what challenges are occurring.

One of the best ways to train your subconscious mind to vibrate gratefulness on an ongoing basis is to simply spend 3 minutes a day keeping a gratitude journal.

3 minutes a day to personal power and a lifetime of happiness. That’s it, it doesn’t take long, but you’ll be amazed after 60 days or more just how great your life will become, how strongly you’ll vibrate success and happiness, how others will naturally see you as an inspirational kind of person…

…And how you’ll just naturally notice all the good things going on as your subconscious will be looking for them all the time throughout the day.

So… With that in mind… What are you grateful for? Please enter your thoughts below, I’d like to turn this into a HUGE gratefulness thread full of 1000s of Gratitude Journal Ideas for future people to look at and read and be inspired.

I’m grateful for being able to keep a healthy diet, without worry about where the next meal will come from.

I’m grateful for my family, I’m grateful for having two legs that allow me to travel the world and have seen many great things.

I’m grateful that today as I’m writing this, it’s a nice sunny day outside.

What are you grateful for? Please leave a comment!

The Afterlife Revealed

Three siblings were preparing their departure for school this past Tuesday morning. Their mother, who had always insisted on smothering them with many hugs and kisses, waved goodbye as her three precious children ventured off in their Chevy Aveo with her eldest daughter. The nine year old was always happy and upbeat as she frantically waved good-by to her mother. The thirteen year old furnished his mother with a unique smile that only her son could give, and her eldest daughter, age 23, blew her a kiss as she drove off the driveway with the valuable cargo.

 

Nonchalantly the three of them continued their journey to school while listing to Christian music on the radio. Everything seemed to be going well until, suddenly and out of nowhere, appeared a  Chevy Sudan. The eldest tried to swerve away from the vehicle, but she could not. It was too late! There was nowhere to turn. They were hit head on by the oncoming vehicle.

 

Not long after the accident the mothers phone rang and she received the heart-wrenching news of her children’s fatal accident. He heart  began to race as her knees crumpled to the floor in utter dread, and tears streamed down her face, for she had lost not just one child that day but all three had perished in the accident.

No mother should ever have to endure such devastation. But sadly, I have to report that this story is true and it happened to a sweet woman at our church.

 

I say this not to incite fear but to warn you that death is a real event no matter your age. It strikes the young, the old, the rich, and the poor. And one day death will be knocking at our doorstep, and it may not be something we desire, and quite frankly it can be scary, but it is something we will all be faced with at some point in our lives….

 

The question, then, is what happens when you die? Are we reincarnated, do we become non-existence, do we all get to live in a bliss, or is there really a heaven and a hell?

 

Based of NDE’s (Near Death Experiences) we can gain an insightful picture of the afterlife. The video below dives into this very subject and gives ample proof for what happens in the afterlife…

 

After the video hopefully you have come to the same conclusion I have, and that is heaven and hell do exist and what the Bible says is real! This outweighs any other theory and NDE’s are proving it…

Out Of Body Experiences

Are out-of-body experiences valid?  Or are they just illusory products of glitches in the brain?  Dr. Crookall at the University of Aberdeen has written 9 books on out-of-body cases due to the overwhelming amount of evidence in their favour. A survey of 380 Oxford students showed that 34% had an OBE. A separate survey of 902 adults revealed that 8% have had an OBE. In a study of 44 non-Western societies, only 3 did not hold a belief in OBEs. Another study showed that out of 488 world societies, 89% had at least some tradition regarding OBEs.  So this phenomenon is familiar and lots of people claimed to have experienced it before, but is there any scientific credibility to this phenomenon?

A fascinating experiment was done by Dr. Charles Tart, who was a Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of California. He had also served as a Visiting Professor in East-West Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies, and as an Instructor in Psychiatry at the School of Medicine of the University of Virginia.  A study he published in the Journal of the American Society for Psychical Research may be the most infamous OBE study ever done.

He documented the out-of-body experience of a young woman who was one of his research subjects.  She was in a room with nothing but a bed, a shelf, a clock, and an observation window where Dr. Tart observed from another room.  She also had electrical devices hooked up to her head to detect brain wave activities, which can be seen in the diagram below.

What  makes this particular out-of-body experience remarkable is that she was able to leave her physical body as Dr. Tart watched from the other room and read a 5-digit number of 25132 off of a piece of paper that was on a shelf in the corner of the room.  The number was at a significant distance above the bed so that she would not be able to read the number even if she was standing, and she reported seeing the correct number him upon return to her physical body which remained attached to the bed as she was being watched. EEGs, REMs, and galvanic skin response were all recorded before and during her OBE which indicated a significant alteration in the readings during the time she left her body. Her OBE a good example of “veridical perception” which is where verified events are observed while in an out-of-body state.

As Dr. Tart concluded: “While the physiological data are limited by dependence on her retrospective report in correlating physiological pattern with the experience, it seems as if her out-of-body experiences occurred in conjunction with a non-dreaming, non-awake brain wave stage characterized by predominant slowed alpha activity from her brain and no activation of the autonomic nervous system. Two incidents occurring in the laboratory provide suggestive evidence that the out of-the-body experiences had parapsychological concomitants.  In summary, this brief study found a fairly clear-cut correlation between several of Miss Z’s reported OOB experiences and a physiological pattern characterized by a flattened EEG with prominent alphoid activity, no REM or skin resistance activity, and normal heart rate”

The #1 Mistake When Using the Law of Attraction

Maybe you can recall the day you found out that Santa wasn’t real.

The magic was gone forever.

But never mind, because here you are, all grown up, and along comes the law of attraction!

You don’t even have to send a note up the chimney any more; the law of attraction will give you whatever you desire just because you imagine it and believe in it.

Now, relax, it’s okay.  I’m not going to burst another bubble… at least not in the way you might think…  

Sure, the law of attraction exists, but it won’t just supply you with all the goodies you can imagine just because you imagine them.

Your imagination is an extremely powerful tool and certainly deserves not to be dismissed as “just your imagination.”  But (as I mentioned in Tuesday’s post) just because you can imagine a Ferrari in your driveway doesn’t mean one’s going to appear.

It’s so easy to believe that the reason the law of attraction hasn’t delivered is because you’re not “an expert visualizer”.  Or that you can’t master the focus required for deep meditation.  Or that you have several negative subconscious beliefs sabotaging your efforts (which, btw is most often the case).

However what I don’t want you to do is to have something to blame – and a reason to give up.  It didn’t work and life goes on.

So let’s start again.  This is the law of attraction, so what are you attracted to?  And what would make you attractive to it?

If you seriously, fervently want to own a Ferrari but you only feel worthy of the beaten up Ford you’ve been patching up for the last ten years, you might notice a mismatch.

Makes sense, right?

So don’t just put up a picture of a Ferrari under a fridge magnet, (or wherever you keep your dream board), start studying the lives, blogs and Facebook pages of Ferrari owners.  How do they carry themselves? 

What was their reaction to something stressful in their lives?

Trust me.  They didn’t get happy and positive after that car showed up!  They were attractive to the opportunities and people which opened up the doorways to Ferrari ownership.

So Model them.

Copy their body language – try it on like a new suit.

It may feel a little awkward to begin with, and that’s a clue.  That’s called “dissonance” and is giving you a sense of the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

Ask yourself what would it take to grow into it, to wear it in until it feels comfortable?

That’s how to use your imagination.

Model the success, the lifestyle, whatever it is you want.  Become the person to whom the change you want to see is attractive.

Child Reveals One Of The Best Kept Secrets

It’s a truly incredible time we live in. Think back to all the amazing revolutions we’ve learned about in history. There’s been some amazing changes that have taken place and the implications of people standing up and doing something different has been huge. After all it led us to where we are today. As destructive and close to extinction as we are, we’ve done some amazing things at the same time and the power of human creativity and love has shown itself.

To hear a young girl speak about facts of our world like Victoria does in the video below is amazing. It not only shows that younger generations simply won’t stand for the current world we live in, but that we can look to people other than the so-called “experts” for creative answers to our current challenges.

Victoria speaks about how our world financial system really works and how it was specifically designed to enslave the population.

Deep Secrets Kept From Us

Most people in the world, young or old, have little idea that our world is so incredibly corrupt and coldly calculated to create an enslaved population.[1] Luckily, this is changing with each passing day as a switch seems to be turning on in people that allows them to see and realize that something isn’t quite right here.

This triggers us to search for answers and with the bevy of information in books, films and on the internet about the true workings of our world, people have the ability to go beyond limited institutions, such as the educational system, to find out what’s really going on. This is likely how Victoria found this information as it’s doubtful she learned it in school.

Check out her powerful message in the video below. Regardless of the fact that the solution she presents may not be complete nor the most advanced, it would undoubtedly be a positive step in the right direction.

Please use this as a tool to pass on to others so they can understand what type of system they really live in.
