Connection

Electricity – Joy – Love
Pulsating through my soul
Pushing forward with one goal
Have fun and know your heart
Live life to the fullest, I’m told
Electricity – Joy – Love
Flowing through my body
I feel it in my legs
I feel it in my heart – I am weightless and floating free
Electricity – Joy – Love
Pulsating through my soul
I have re-connected with my true self and I’m remembering what I was once told.
Music
Music in my soul
Music in my mind
I see the notes
Floating in time
I feel the sound
Fingers floating across ivory keys
Vibrant colors everywhere
Sing to me today
Music in my soul
So deep so loud so real
Music in my soul
My heart sings a song of love
Music in my soul…
Coming from God above.
Beliefs Where Miracles Are Born
What are some of your beliefs about life and those around you? There are many positive (good feeling) and negative (not so good feeling) thoughts which has shaped your beliefs. Some examples might be…”I love being able to do anything that I put my mind to.” ”I feel great when I see the opportunities that are ahead.” “What happened has happened, now to move on as a successful <you fill in the blank>.” “One step forward two steps back.” “My children just don’t listen.” ”Eating this or that will make you fat.” “It takes hard work in order to be successful.” …I think that you get the point!
So what is a belief anyway? A belief is a thought rehearsed over and over in your mind. It is a thought that you had where you looked for proof to determine the results either positive or negative, for you or against you. Many of our beliefs today (both positive and negative) come from what we heard our parents say when we were young. However, there are many who have been told negative things and it didn’t have an affect on their thinking. Many have held on to positive and empowering thoughts in their darkest hour. The more someone said that they “couldn’t do” the more they told themselves that they “would do”.
Let me challenge you today to start creating different beliefs (or give someone else the tools to do so). I’m talking the kinds of beliefs where miracles are born!! Be prepared to work mentally and use your will to put your mind into action because it takes practice, after all some of you have practiced negative thoughts for many years. Start thinking and believing in a more improved situation no matter how small or large and change your life – thought by thought, day by day!
As a positive media companion, I highly recommend Know For Yourself DVD by Polaris Media Group (Copyright 2009, U.S. $24.95 with coupon code 13187) and Change Your Thoughts, Change your Life: Living the Wisdom of the Tao by Wayne Dyer (Copyright 2006, U.S. $16.95; ISBN 978-1-40191-750-0).
Ask
Who am I? You are you.
How did I get here? You asked.
Why? To create.
What shall I be? Whatever you desire.
What is my purpose? Joy!
Who am I? You are you.
How will I know what steps to take? Join Me.
How will I know I have joined You? You will live a life of bliss.
How will I know bliss? You will feel your way there.
In my walk to bliss there is so much pain, sorrow, “wars against….”, poverty, and illness. How will I see my way? Focus not on what you “do not” want and feel your way to truth; for if you give your attention to those things you will become distracted and your belief, faith, and hope will be temporarily compromised.
Who am I? You are you.
And how do I join You? …..Ask

Attitude of Gratitude
In the last week, I focused a lot more on being grateful for everything and also being excited about life in general. Even though I start each day by writing in my gratitude journal (of which I highly recommend), I decided to enlist the assistance of my children to heighten my focus.
Instead of answering the many questions about the traffic etc on the ride to school, I decided to play a game that I called The Gratitude Game. There was only one rule, each person had to state one thing they are grateful for and then it would be the next persons turn.
I went first for example purposes. “I am so happy and grateful for this beautiful sunny morning.” My youngest went next, he said “I’m so happy and grateful for: my sneakers; my new Iron Man backpack; my uniform; my new teacher…” He kept going and going; I could barely interrupt him. He was overflowing with excitement and I could feel his energy! I told him we have to take turns he said “I know mommy, but I’m just so happy and excited!” We all laughed and continued playing for the entire ride. What an awesome experience and what a wonderful day we all had.
So, what are you grateful for?
Go through life with an attitude of gratitude and you will discover a different way of living.
Freedom
It feels exhilarating to have complete and total freedom. Granted the only version of prison that I’ve ever experienced was that of a cubicle while working a 9-5, combined with the limited annual salary and limited thinking. That’s enough to make anyone a little nutty. I have released myself from that bondage by making a powerful and bold decision to take control of my life no matter what. What changed to bring me to that decision? The answer is simply, “How I do things”.
I understand that if any one is to experience the freedom that they desire they have to dig a little deeper than, their why/purpose and goals. Although they play a huge part, it does go a little deeper. Wouldn’t you agree? Here is a quote that I read over a year ago and once I really got it – it changed everything.
“The ownership of money and property comes as a result of doing things in a certain way, and those who do things in this certain way – whether on purpose or accidentally – get rich, while those who do not do things in this certain way – not matter how hard they work or how able they are – remain poor.” –Wallace D. Wattles, The Science of Getting Rich
So if doing things in a certain way is the key to success or in this case freedom, why don’t more people strive for it? After all, it is available to everyone. I could list a dozen or more excuses that I have heard on why people don’t, but for the sake of empowering you, I won’t.
What I would like to do is challenge you to take a long hard look at yourself and ask yourself the following questions: Did I get what I came for? Do I have the level of freedom that I desire? If not, why? Maybe you too need to start the doing of things in a certain way. What is the certain way? Well, that’s another post for another day. For those that are already doing things in a certain way, enjoy your freedom!
To your success and FREEDOM!

The Choices We Make
Every path that you’ve taken in life, you’ve had a choice. I could go through a list of famous people, but let’s take me for example.
I come from a childhood where there was domestic violence in our home. My Mom did the best that she could to keep my younger sister and I sheltered from what was going on. For as long as I can remember, my Dad was verbally and physically abusive to my Mom. He even called me and my younger sister out of our names – a name to horrible for me to ever mention. We saw my Dad hit my Mom, wave a gun in her face, drive a knife in the kitchen cabinet door just missing her face, throw items at her, shove her out of the car, she was told she was stupid, ugly, fat and other horrible things.
There were times where they were happy as a couple, but we never knew what was going to set him off. For a while, my sister and I thought it was us, we must have been the problem. After some years, they finally divorced (thank God) and we had some peace.
Well, at some point in my young life, I was faced with a choice regarding this situation. I could have made a number of choices that would have dramatically changed who I am today. I am proud that I didn’t use past hurts or circumstances dictate my future.
After many years, I have forgiven my Dad and now have a relationship with him. I didn’t feel hatred or resentment to other men prior to my forgiving him, but I knew that if I was to be successful, really successful at anything I would have to forgive. Heck, God has forgiven me for my many sins so what made me so high and mighty that I couldn’t forgive my own father.
My whole point here is to say, we are all faced with choices, some are simple and some very challenging and maybe not so clear. These choices shape our futures forever and it is up to us to take responsibility for our lives. Let the choices that you make throughout your life be choices that you made consciously without using an excuse for doing so. I believe that you can control your future while here on this place called earth because life is about choice; so when making a choice ~ choose deliberately….I do!
Melody Campbell’s Awesome New Project
So today I was interviewed by none other than Melody Campbell, The Small Business Guru. Melody has an awesome new project that she is working on and she can’t wait to share it. I am so excited to share the details of what she’s doing, but it’s not quite ready yet. She will be rolling it out soon, so keep checking back for an updated post. I’ll give you one hint, Twitter is what prompted this exciting new project of hers. So stay tuned! I will post a more detailed blog. But for now I just wanted to share this tid-bit! Yeah!
Enlightening…
This is something that came to me during my meditation. This has never happened to me before and I wrote it by the light of the TV (I was listening to Soundscapes music channel). I am unsure what it means but I am sure that I will find out.
