Word of the Week

I introduced the Word of the Week to help us improve our working knowledge of the English language. Your part if you choose to participate is to be aware of and use each word for the entire week whenever the opportunity presents itself. This way we will all increase our vocabulary and our knowledge of the English language supplying us with a very effective tool to utilize on our road to success.

temerity

te·mer·i·ty /təˈmerəti/ noun

the quality of being confident and unafraid of danger or punishment.

From a poem entitled “It’s No Surprise”

“Eyes exuding sincerity,

understanding, temerity,

is why I love you.”

Overcoming Setbacks Pt I.

I had an interesting conversation the other day about controlling cravings and emotions and why we seem to sabotage ourselves, often just as we reach or come close to reaching our goals. Most often this is caused by chemical imbalances in the body.

As we know NATURE is all about balance. When something is out of balance we seemingly automatically crave foods or habits that bring us back in line. Most women are very familiar with this problem for each month when blood sugar levels drop and serotonin production is low their body will develop cravings for certain foods. Much beyond this though there is a power within us that holds an image of what it has been programmed to believe we are or what we represent and it continually makes corrections to maintain this image should we drift too far off course.

Contained within our Creative Force, (subconscious mind), are the blueprints for whom and what we imagine ourselves to be. Many of these blueprints were programmed while we were young and are actually other people’s ideas of who we are and what we should believe. Most of these blueprints are outdated and no longer serve us but are still running the show unbeknownst to us. These blueprints act like a cybernetic device and when we drift too far off course, (accomplishing our goal), our subconscious says; “Hey this is not who I know me to be. I’d better make some corrections to bring me back on course.” Depending on what your goal is this can be anything from binging to sabotaging a relationship or more debt. Things may seem pretty bleak at this point, for what chance do we have of advancing if we have all these programmed blueprints holding us back?

The good news is we have choice and what has been programmed can be overwritten and deleted. Awareness is the key. Be on the lookout for when these urges rise up and don’t fight them. What we resist persists. We must allow them to surface without dominating us. Talk to them and acknowledge their existence. Thank them for their service in the past but they are no longer required and of no purpose in our life any more. Tell them they no longer have any power over you and it is time for them to leave for they are being replaced by a NEW and BETTER plan. For many I am sure this sounds like a lot of hocus-pocus but I assure you it works.

Several times each day get yourself into a sleepy state when the subconscious is MOST receptive to suggestion and let it know what your goals are. Ask it to reveal any roadblocks, (preprogramming), that need to be removed in order to realize these goals then let go, relax and let your subconscious accomplish your requests.

Part II will be posted Friday.

Purpose

We have but one purpose in life. That is to love and serve one another without judgment advancing life for all.

By tending to the needs of others all our needs will be fulfilled.

Giving is one of the prerequisites to receiving.

I can hear the cries of disagreement now. But, before you click me away as delusional allow me the opportunity to explain.

I am not speaking of self-sacrifice here, allowing others to dominate at the expense of our own desires and what we were designed to accomplish in this phase of our being. No, I am speaking of serving others within our goals and aspirations for this is where we will excel, assisting mankind while realizing fulfillment.

Our challenge this week is to focus on the above passage as we go about our daily interactions with others. Be aware of whether your service is taking you away from your intentions or toward them.

What steps can we take to ensure we are continually serving others within our intentions?
How might this attitude result in a positive influence?

Tough Times

In these supposedly tough economic times it is important to remind ourselves we are the makers of our environment and circumstance both globally and individually. As much as “they” would like us to believe there are fewer resources, lack and limitation, and try to make us focus on the appearance of things rather than the Truth, for those who understand where all things come from and the Laws of this universe, we know it is not so. The Truth being, there is no lack of anything for those who understand the Spiritual Supply, from which the visible comes, is never depleted. Spiritual Supply is with us always and will yield according to our demand on it. It cannot be affected by our ignorant talk of lack and limitation; only we are the ones affected and it is our thought that will determine how we are affected.

This unfailing Resource is always ready and willing to give. This is a Law and It has no choice. It will, It must prosper you if you continually focus your thoughts on ideas of plenty, prosperity, health love and joy. These things will begin to manifest themselves in your life. Be sure to be thankful for all you have at this moment and make the best use of it and through right thinking more will be added.

Our failure to meet our demands on life is not a failure of resources for there will never be a lack of resources. It is a failure from within us, a lack of understanding and application of the Law.
No matter what our dilemma the Law can resolve it. We must adjust our thinking to work with the Law.

Work Efficiently not Harder

I am very grateful for the opportunities that await me and I attract through right thinking. It is important for us to understand that it is not hard work which produces opportunity leading to success but right thinking and the doing of things in an efficient manner. There are those who seemingly work very hard but to no avail and others who seem to do very little yet prosper in every way. I know of a person who, in their chosen profession, has the potential to easily make over one million dollars each year. This person works very hard many hours each day yet gets nowhere. This person is scattered, their focus is all over the place chasing opportunity after opportunity but always creating and trying to solve some crisis. This person is totally driven by their external environment and circumstance. To those who function on the competitive plane more opportunity and success would appear to come out of working harder but this is not so. Life is about balance not hours of hard work. We are to do all we can each day in an efficient manner but not try to do a weeks work in one day. No man on his death bed ever wishes he had spent more time on hard work and making money.

It is true awareness is key and opportunity must be acted on when presented. It is important not to worry about or chase missed opportunity for it often means another better opportunity is down the road for those who focus on doing all they can in an efficient manner. There is no lack of opportunity for opportunity is always there and attracted from within by the right thinking of those who operate on the creative plane.

On focus – It is important not to focus in too many directions at one time or we risk doing things in an inefficient manner and the opportunity is lost. Just as the magnifying glass is only efficient in the opportunity of creating fire when totally focused on one point so each of our tasks must be completed before moving to the next. This is not to say you cannot focus on more than one thing each day. Remember life is about balance and it is right to focus on the different aspects of your life each day in its time. This is where awareness is key.

With a Little Faith...

This is a true story about a dog called Faith...read on...picture will come up shortly. After reading the story go to Faith's official website: www.faiththedog.net/

I met this dog in the airport on one of my trips back
East. They were on their way to Chicago for the
Oprah show. He is very friendly and sweet, and
draws huge crowds everywhere he goes. There was
a huge crowd following him as he walked to the
waiting area for the plane we were going to
board, it got my attention because flashes were
going off, I thought it must be a
celebrity

This is 'Faith'

This dog was born on Christmas Eve in the year 2002.
He was born with 3 legs - 2 healthy hind legs
and 1 abnormal front leg which needed to be
amputated. He of course could not walk when he
was born. Even his mother did not want
him.


His first owner also did not think that he could
survive. Therefore, he was thinking of 'putting
him to sleep'.

By this time, his present owner, Jude Stringfellow, met
him and wanted to take care of him.

She is determined to teach and train this dog to walk
by himself. Therefore she named him
'Faith' .

In the beginning, she put Faith on a surfing board
to let him feel the movements. Later she used
peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and reward
for him to stand up and jump around. Even the
other dog at home also helped to encourage him
to walk. Amazingly, only after 6 months, like a
miracle, Faith learned to balance on his 2 hind
legs and jumped to move forward. After further
training in the snow, he now can walk like a
human being.


Faith loves to walk around now. No matter where he
goes, he just attracts all the people around
him.
He is now becoming famous on the international scene.
He has appeared on various newspapers and TV
shows.
There is even one book entitled 'With a little faith'
being published about him. He was even
considered to appear in one of Harry Potter
movies.
His present owner Jude Stringfellew has given up her
teaching post and plans to take him around the
world to preach that even without a perfect
body, one can have a perfect soul'.

In life there are always undesirable things.
Perhaps one will feel better if one changes the
point of view from another direction.
I hope this message will bring fresh new ways of
thinking to everyone and that everyone can
appreciate and be thankful for each beautiful
day that follows. Faith is the continual
demonstration of the Strength of Life

Believing is Seeing

What are your core beliefs? Where do they come from and why do you accept them as truth?

Spend some time discovering just what your core beliefs are about your circumstance and environment, your core beliefs about people, why you believe what you do about certain situations, programs or institutions. Is it reality or simply your perspective? Is it someone else’s experience you accepted as truth, or something you were taught to be true without question as a child?

Take time to challenge and test your core beliefs. Discover why you believe what you do and test it to see if it holds true or is it merely an opinion, yours or someone else’s. Your core beliefs shape your outer world. Change what you believe about a certain aspect of your life and you will change your results in the physical world. This is the law. Believing is seeing.

Importance of Serving

By design we were created for service. To serve one another, expanding and creating a better quality of life for all. Like a lake we must both receive and give life to flourish. If we live a selfish life taking only for ourselves we become like the Dead Sea which can sustain no life. Water only flows into the Dead Sea, not out. Therefore the Dead Sea is stagnant just as we will become. In order to live we must give. True service is giving without the expectation of receiving.

However, in our universe, by design, it is impossible to give without receiving back in some form.

It is important to ask ourselves each day; in what small way can I be of service today?

Gardening

Our thoughts are the seeds we plant in the garden of our mind and by continually involving ourselves in these thoughts, whether by conversation, reading, entertainment or other means; we are cultivating and nurturing these thoughts. They will be our harvest.

Why is it in our physical world we have no trouble understanding that if we plant carrots we harvest carrots, if plant broccoli we harvest broccoli and if we plant rag weed we harvest rag weed, but in the spirit or mind world we can’t seem to understand that if we plant thoughts of lack and limitation, sickness and depression it is impossible to reap prosperity, good health and abundance? This is a universal law. It plays no favorites and is true for the individual as well as society at large. The quality of our crop will be determined by how well we nurture and care for it whether positive or negative.

It is so important to guard our thoughts becoming aware of our behaviors if we wish to advance our life toward prosperity, love, joy and health.

Spend this week becoming aware of how often you become involved in negative conversation, listening to music containing a negative message, reading negative material and any other activity or environment which dictates negativity. How might we counteract all this pollution not allowing these seeds to take root in our subconscious mind?

In closing, I was stirred to reread The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind in which Dr. Joseph Murphy writes: All your experiences, events, conditions, and acts are produced by your subconscious mind in reaction to your thoughts. Remember, it is not the thing believed in, but the belief in your own mind that brings about the result.

Balance

All of creation is about balance and purpose, action and reaction.

Understanding this, spirit and ego have purpose and were designed to harmonize working together in perfect balance for universal benefit.

Ego is that part of us which is always trying to dominate. It is insatiable, always demanding more, leaving us forever wanting, feeling incomplete.

Spirit is always content realizing all is perfect for the moment in time and that more will be given as we are prepared to receive, leaving us relaxed, happy and fulfilled.

Ego represents the competitive physical world of lack and limitation, win at all cost and bigger is better. It is stressful leading to disease, (dis ease). Contentment and happiness can only be realized temporarily if at all. It is centered on the appearance of things rather than the Truth.

Spirit represents the creative world where it is understood all things will come to us in their perfect time as we are able and prepared to receive them. Spirit focuses on the Truth, that there is no lack of anything. Things only become nonexistent as they are no longer needed. If more is needed it will be created or a better way realized. Spirit never need take from another for he can have his own or something better. There is always a Divine surplus.

The trouble man has had through the centuries and the cause of all abominations is his struggle with ego.

Awareness is the first step we must take to create balance between ego and spirit. Over the next few days become aware of how many times and different ways ego tries to dominate. How might we go about creating balance? When in balance, what purpose does ego serve? What purpose does spirit serve? It is important to know and understand these things.

Energy Flows Where Attention Goes

If we spend most of our time focusing on the negative aspects of a relationship or situation, guess what? We get more negativity. This is a universal law and will always hold true. The quickest way to destroy a relationship is too continually focus on what is wrong with it. It is equally true for any situation. It will continue to deteriorate as long as we continue to focus on what’s bad about the situation.

Nothing changes until our focus changes. A situation miraculously improves or solves itself as soon as we find something good about it and begin to focus in that direction. Relationships begin to mend once our focus is on the good points. You may say there are no good points. The universal law of polarity states that for every negative there is an equal or greater positive. Negatives and positives in a relationship are one and the same. They are just at opposite ends of the spectrum. We choose in which direction we wish to proceed by our thought choices and actions.

This being said take some time this week and be aware of where your focus is in your day-to-day relationships and situations. If you wish to improve a relationship or particular situation, seek out some good to focus on and see if it doesn’t make a difference, and not a half hearted effort with the thought that this will never make a difference because if that is what you think that is what you will get. Energy flows where attention goes.

Reaching the Summit

If we expect to reach the pinnacle of our sport or art it is essential to continually assess our thoughts feelings and actions to determine whether or not they match our current blue prints which are responsible for the results we are experiencing at this point in our career. Does the life style we are presently leading contribute 100% toward our goal or is it more like 70% or even less? I would say that if it is less than 90% then the reality is we really are not very serious. It is more wishful thinking and we are not willing to discipline our self, sacrificing certain vices in order to attain what we think would be nice to be, do, or have.

Our bodies are designed to function optimally when provided with the proper nutrients and recovery time. If our current life style does not support this it will be impossible to ever realize our full potential. It is important to realize everything we put into our body and mind either strengthens or weakens it. The body can take an amazing amount of abuse and still perform at a fairly high level but the law states we reap that which we sow. We may even reach the top for a brief period of time but this is a universal law and there is no cheating it. If we practice habits of abuse the body will break down. It will be weakened.

Some fool themselves thinking a few weeks or a month of proper nutrition and training will suffice. This is not so. The body responds best to a consistent systematic quotidian regime containing all the components of training. Our weakest component will determine our degree of success therefore it is important we have a thorough understanding of each component and how to develop them.

Another law, the Law of Receiving is more than willing to deliver all we desire but will only give in proportion to what we are able, through preparation, to receive.

Victory in Defeat

The measure of our loss will be determined by our knowledge gained and implemented.

There is almost always a certain amount of pain and discomfort associated with growth.

In nature we think of birthing, growing pains of the infant and adolescent. In life lessons we think of relationships and loss, whether it be loss of a loved one or defeat in a competition.

When speaking of competition, in Truth there is no winning or losing. If we don’t experience the result we were hoping for it merely means we were ill prepared for our endeavor and there is more to be learned, things added or removed as we hone our skills.

Winning and losing only exists on the ego based competitive plane where winners are exalted, some even in ineffable regard, and losers made to feel inferior.

On the creative plane competition serves to test our skills and advance our interest with an attitude that all will learn and benefit from the experience. “Win or lose,” spirits remain high as knowledge is gained and new goals are implemented, building on what has gone before, removing that which moves us away from our purpose replacing it with that, which moves us toward our purpose. The only loser is he who gains no knowledge from his endeavor and therefore remains unchanged or sinks to lower levels.

There is an inner voice, which knows our worthy intention
Let go of self and heed Its words
For this is the Source of all creation
For those who choose to listen
Releasing in subjection
This inner voice will bring us to perfection
There is no winning, there is no losing
On our path of co-creation
Only lessons learned, knowledge gained
Toward our final destination.

For those who have won the battle this day – be gracious in your victory thanking your opponent for all he has taught you.

For those who have lost this day – maintain dignity-keeping spirits high for you have not lost but gained a wealth of knowledge on which to build. It has been a necessary step in preparation for what lays ahead. Understand there is purpose in “winning and losing.”
