Get going to the better you

Posted on:

“Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself.” – Coco Chanel Until you stand in your truth, and commit to be yourself, you’re a fake.  You know it.  The rest of the world knows it too, or will soon discover.  Life under self-deceit and pretense is unsustainable.  There’s no joy, no sense of true value and self-worth. Being yourself is the beginning of becoming more, living at a higher level.  Be yourself, and get going on the better you.

Abundance and the Power of Positive Thinking

Posted on:

Do you ever catch yourself  feeling pressured by economic fluctuation or rising prices? Such changes can definitely affect much more than just our wallets, they can also undermine our efforts to stay in abundance mode. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push(); Did you know that money is the most emotionally charged inanimate object in existence, and that negative thoughts and feelings about money can easily rob you of your sense of joy and happiness? When we allow money to influence our emotions, we have given our power to an inanimate, lifeless object. This is a trap that can interfere with our ability to live a life of abundance. Abundance and lack, two opposing forces Abundance and lack cannot coexist, one or …

We Are All One: The Law of Interconnection

Posted on:

The spiritual path takes us unequivocally towards several important truths. One of which is that we are all one.This is not a new saying. I’m sure many of you have heard it before. I’m sure many of you have used this phrase, but to really know this from nose to toes is a whole other thing.In a spiritual awakening, someone is thrust into this truth and feels the profoundness of it. However, people rarely abide there completely. So there tends to be a lot of bouncing in and out of that state of awareness. In a spiritual…

Yet another year is near its end, with new years around the corner its time to begin thinking about the year we just lived through. Time for retrospection and self-evaluation. Did we make any changes in our behavior or have we grown mentally, emotionally or even spiritually. What good qualities have we embraced this year and which bad habits or qualities have we let go of. Do not ponder on those things long, what is more important is which qualities are you going to embrace and/or let go of this coming year. Self development and improvement is one of the most…

Surround yourself

“Surround yourself with better people.” Are people attracted to you because you’re better?  Because you’re more disciplined, thoughtful, engaged?   What about in your own space?  Who do you surround yourself with?   Jim Rohn nailed it when he said “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” Consider: In the new year, who should you be spending time with?

The Return of the Ego

Posted on:

I want to start out by re-emphasizing that we'll always have an ego so long as we're in a human body. It is not an inherently bad thing. I define the ego as a lens to process immense amounts of physical, emotional, energetic, and mental information. That lens helps us to decide what is useful and what is not. An itch at the bottom of my foot can be ignored. A sharp stabbing pain means that I should see what I stepped on.However, there are many unconscious layers…

Have you taken enough time to explore and cultivate the music inside?  Have you thought about what was going on when you found yourself in your zone –  in flow – when everything seemed so right, so timeless and effortless?
