NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO A WILLING HEART

 

You can do anything in this world you want to do,
but you must want to do it badly enough.
You really can have everything you want, if you go after it.
You have to want it.

The first ingredient of success is desire.
Do you know what you want?
Your desire is the planting of your seed.

Your desire for success must be so strong within you
that it's the very breath of your life.
It must be your first thought when you wake in the morning,
and your last thought when you go to bed at night.

You can be whatever you make up your mind to be.
What's in your mind is all that counts.

You will notice that those who speak most of prosperity, have it. Those who speak most of health, have it. Those who speak most of sickness, have it. Those who speak most of poverty, have it. It is Law. It can be no other way... The way you feel is your point of attraction, and so, the Law of Attraction is most understood when you see yourself as a magnet getting more and more of the way you feel. When you feel lonely, you attract more loneliness. When you feel poor, you attract more poverty. When you feel sick, you attract more sickness. When you feel unhappy, you attract more unhappiness. When you feel healthy and vital and alive and prosperous—you attract more of all of those things.

My Day: Sorry if I did not get to visit you. I am running through life at the moment. I had a dentist appointment right in the middle of my sleep time. I was late so luckily she took me. My week has been off kilter so guess I will be affirming some divine timing and order. I had to sleep this morning to be able to get up and go to the dentist. I got my walk on Pete in early and my prayer and meditation. The loan came through for the remodel today and I got a really good Interest rate. I came home and did a little house work. I have a lot of things to do the night few days. I could use some prayers. I have to go to the doctor tomorrow, then I have to work two extra nights this weekend. I have my eye surgery on Monday. So if I don't visit the next few days hope you understand.

What I am grateful for today: I am grateful for the loan. I am grateful for a low interest rate. I am grateful my dental work is almost done. My eye surgery will be all done on Monday. My daughters. My kitty and my home. I am so grateful I will start five nights with Mr. E. next week and not have to work extra. Judi

YOU CAN MAKE SUCCESS HAPPEN

" Fear is an illusion. Make your own reality and step up to any challenge, no matter how great. Unless you fall, you will never gain the strength to stand; keep moving. And if you ever fall, look up, my hand will always be there."
Written in 2008 by Lee B. --- New Jersey

“The world is full of poetry. The air is living with its spirit; and the waves dance to the music of its melodies, and sparkle in its brightness.” — Percival

“Stop the mindless wishing that things would be different. Rather than wasting time and emotional and spiritual energy in explaining why we don’t have what we want, we can start to pursue other ways to get it.” — Greg Anderson

“Act the way you’d like to be and soon you’ll be the way you act.”

 — George W. Crane

You cannot do everything, but you can do something.
Your success is but a determined action away.

Your life will always be what you make of it.
Your thoughts and actions will lead you to success or failure.
So the keys to your success and fortune are in your hands.

Always accept the responsibility for your actions.
Always set a higher standard for yourself.

No one is going to do it for you.
Only you can make it happen.

The basis of your life is absolute freedom, the goal is joy, and the result of that perfect combination is motion forward, or growth. Your goal is to find objects of attention that let your cork raise.

10 Steps To Success - Sound Ways to Boost Success and Creativity

1. Accept Assistance: Get help with some of what you are trying to do, or be willing to let something go when you are overwhelmed. Conquer any fear of you may have of collaboration or asking for help. If you look closely at why you feel you have to do everything yourself, you'll find some kind of fear operating that is keeping beneficial help from reaching you. In fact, during this next 30 days make it a discipline to ask for help at least once a day.

2. Vision It in: Dedicate time daily, to visualizing what you wish to create, and spend time doing some kind of practice or review of what you have done. Commit to doing something every day, but do not set a rigid amount that must be done. One sentence, written well, makes for a more successful day than twenty pages written poorly. In other words, develop a healthy respect for the act of visualization and write it into your schedule as part of your work.

3. Seek Non-Human Assistance: Ask for a totem animal, to help you manifest your dreams and to show you the best way to proceed. Make a list of the skills you need, and announce to Spirit that you would like a "power" animal to teach you. The animal may come in dreamtime or during your daily meditation . It may appear in your life.

4. Avoid Squandering Energies: If you cannot focus on the chosen aspect, let it go and do something else. If blocked, let it go for a while and come back to it later. In the past, this has always been a very hard one for me. The more I wanted something to be working, or completed, the more driven I tended to be. However, years of operating that way have taught me that more productivity can be achieved by shifting attention away from the thing so desperately desired, when feeling urgent or driven. It balances the creative flow. Take a break when you least feel that you can afford to stop.

5. Release Expectations: Understand that Spirit may have a way of bringing the whole thing together, which your personality self has never even considered. Don't tie the hands of your Higher Self, by insisting on a certain sequence of events. Trust that God will unfold the perfect result. If you can take the position of "interested observer" it will be easier to let God work in your life. Consider how it would be if you tried to fly an airplane from your seat in the middle. How clear would your vision of the entire sky be from that perspective. Better to trust the pilot.

6. Be Willing to Take It One Step at A Time: Get used to not being able to see the next step. It will be revealed when you have done the work needed in the present moment. Jumping ahead is one of the biggest energy drains I can imagine. It's a little like trying to go 100 miles an hour with your foot on the brake. All you'll do is make a stink and burn out your brake pads.

7. Practice Good Will Gestures: Find someone to encourage, lift up, or support. In the reality of the feedback loop, you will receive what you give out, and the support will be there when you need it. You are familiar with the Random Acts of Kindness movement a while back and the more recent Pay It Forward phenomenon. Both are a rekindling of a much older tradition: Do unto others what you you would have them do unto you. These ideas keep reemerging because they represent higher truth. It's an amazing truth that what you do comes back to you, so do something nice for no reason every day for the next 30 days.

8. Use Conscious Speech: Watch how you speak out about what you want to create - choose your words and images carefully. Don't push and don't push your ideas on other people. Share only with those who will support, encourage, and gently challenge weak points, from a position of support.

Your body hears every word you say about your health. Your mind hears every word you say about your abilities and skills. Further more, your cellular memory records everything you think about yourself, whether you speak it out or not. Instead of saying "I'm terrible at public speaking" try "In the past, I've tended to be challenged by public speaking but I am learning to be comfortable sharing my truth and awareness with others." Speaking in this way literally programs your mind to put your challenges where they belong - in the past - and to focus your thinking toward the future in a positive way.

9. Do Something Nourishing for Yourself Every Day: Make a point of it. It doesn't have to be a big thing. A long hot bath is one of my favorite gifts I give myself. Affirm "I am deserving of receiving this vision into reality," to open your channels for receiving more goodness and success. When you stop punishing yourself for work not done or results not achieved, you begin to release the taskmaster that has kept you enslaved to linear time results and projection. Yes, those things are there but they are not the law. They are a guideline and guidelines change. Be willing to enjoy wherever you are, even if it is not where you think you should be or projected you would be by a particular moment in time.

10. End the Day When the Day Ends: Maybe the most important tip of all - Let the day go at the end of the day, without judgment or negative self-talk. Thank yourself for doing your best with the time, release any unfinished business to God and ask for dreamtime teachings, healing and help as you drop away to sleep.

My Day: I took a lot of time visiting on Xanga this morning. I was sleepy without much energy but as the day progressed the energy started coming out of hiding. I cleaned my fridge. I got my new Debbie Meyer green bags in the mail so will let you know how they work as the days go on. Why do my soups keep growing. I know I add leftover meat and veggies. They just grow and grow. I weedeated my back yard. The grass is coming up nicely. Soon it will be able to walked on and my neighbor can trim his tree.

I had a crazy morning. Went grocery shopping for Mr. E. and I left his ATM card in the machine. Then the bank shredded it because I was not him and would not give it back. I could not check out at work as we use the phone to check in and out and the power was down. I called the office to get them to get a new ATM card actually the nurse was pretty nice about it. She said, "We all have days like that."  Then I went to lunch at a chinese restaurant. The waitress did not get me a menu she started feeding her fish. I asked if I could have a menu she said, "The fish are hungry will be with you when they are fed." LOL.

I finally got home. I had a bunch of stuff to do here. So have not been to bed. Now is time for bed. When I get too tired the mornings go like this.

What I am grateful for today. Getting my back yard done. Getting my dishes done. My floors mopped in the bathroom and kitchen. I walked on Pete. I did my prayer and meditation. So it is, all is well, I love you all. Judi

FOLLOW THE PATH OF OTHERS TO SUCCESS

“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.”

“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.”

Andre Gide

“Be faithful to that which exists nowhere but in yourself- and thus make yourself indispensable”

Andre Gide 

 
You can learn from other people to make up for
your lack of experience in any area of life.

Be open and receptive to people around you.
They have things to teach you.
Take advantage of the people that have made the
journey ahead of you.

Try to pick the right role models.
Don't look for people that make you feel good or entertain you.
Look for people that can help you.

Role models are more than people you like and admire.
The key is to look for people that will help
you to be more successful.
You can learn from the mistakes of others.
You can learn different approaches to overcoming challenges.

Learning what not to do is as important
as learning what to do.

Article: Relationships: The Foundation

These articles are written basically in order. Before you can build your foundation for sharing, you have to know what love is (so start with the Know Thyself. Once you get a grip on where love really exists (within), then you can start to lay a foundation for expressing it with others.

I wrote in the Know Thyself article that love exists within. Unfortunately, most of us do not know this so we have no awareness of the foundation of love (ourselves). You are the foundation of love because you are love. Before we can express our inner love for others, we have to consciously love ourselves, which is the true foundation for a successful relationship with others. One might say it's easy to love yourself if you are love, but it is not. Our core self is universal love, but the perceptions, blocks, and ego that stand in the way are impressive.

When we don't love ourselves we become bitter and pessimistic about the world, which is really just an indictment of ourselves. We project our unhappiness, despair and lack of self-acceptance onto those around us. Whenever someone treats me with hatred, I know it is they that they hate, and not I. I send them as much love and light as I can and hope they can see this one day. People who hate themselves generally use every person other then themselves to blame it on. The world screwed them, God hates them, their mate is bad, or whatever. Ịt is easy to blame the world for this lack of self-love, but it is never accurate.

 The turning point in loving ourselves is when we start to become honest. To take responsibility for how we feel about ourselves. To address the ego state and notice the steady flow of judgments we pass onto others and subsequently ourselves. To know we all have suppressed guilt (for a myriad of reasons), and that as long as we are lying to ourselves about our perceived imperfections that we are not present in the truest sense in this life experience. When we start to accept ourselves, we can then begin to experience wholeness of our life, not just the parts that we're comfortable with. And when we do this, our original innocents is born again. There is no good or bad with our feelings towards self, just an opportunity to experience profound learning.

An example of this dishonesty with self is when someone says to me (or even when I say this to myself), "They made me get angry." The fact is, we chose to get angry. They did nothing but expose something that already existed in us. No one makes us do anything emotionally. The other side of this coin is when we say, "They make me feel love." Again, you still chose what to feel or suppress. Start taking responsibility at the highest level and you'll be self-empowered, another sign of self-love.

So when you attack someone, think about what they did that set you off. What sore spot did they expose? What part of your ego got in the way? For it matters not what is ever said to us, but how we react. Our reaction to what people say and do says something about ourselves, and where we still need to heal within (Can you imagine the Christ or Buddha yelling back at someone and saying They made me do it!?) This does not mean beat yourself up for having "failed" for there is no failure involved here, but instead, look carefully at where you still need to grow. In a way, we should thank the person who has just upset us, for it's a small gift that allows us to see where we still need to heal. A bit of light was just shed for us and for this we should be thankful.

Love yourself, accept yourself during your journey, and know this process is miraculous. In essence, stop judging! Stop judging how you unfold, or how you perceive. Just come from a place of love, and there you will find yourself.

This is a life long process. But you will find that you will grow to love yourself through these concepts and perceptions. The effort towards loving yourself becomes less and less of an "effort" and more and more of a natural state. And when you stumble, you pick yourself back up, observe what just happened (but not judge) and proceed to walk on your path towards self-realization. And eventually, you will be a being who is living the true foundation for a loving relationship with another. For until you learn to love yourself, you will be incapable of loving another in a way that reflects your true essence.

The journey continues...

My Day: My boss finally made a decision and I can work five days with Mr. E. I don't know what days yet but it looks like I do not have to go through all the imagining of what could happen. Today they said that they would try and talk to the other caregivers envolved in this change and it probably would not happen this week but probably next week. I stayed with the prayer of the highest good of all concerned. Thank you to all of you who prayed with me. I am just plain tired today. I was suppose to go to the doctor but reset the appointment for the end of the week. I worked 48 hours on the weekend. So today I need to rest. I still need to mow the lawn but it will have to wait until I am rested.

I applied for the loans to do the remodel. I applied for three and see who will give me the best deal. They said they could have the money to me in the next two to three days. I need to buy a shed and get someone to put it up and move the stuff from the garage to the shed. I also will need someone to put it up. I have those people in place. My daughter is moving down here in the next two weeks. The contractor may not be able to do the work until June or July but it will get done. I found a claw foot tub for the bathroom still trying to find out how much they will want for it. I will know that tomorrow too. Then will have to move that. But it is cool, 6 foot long and deep.  It will depend on the price they want for it.

I would love to lie back and take a bubble bath in this tub. I also looked on Craigs List for a storage shed wow can I ever save on that by getting someone to help me haul it and buying it on Craigs list. I got the bill for my eye surgery and it is not half as much as they quoted will have to call tomorrow and see if the bill is right but wahoo. The faucets for the old tubs like that are expensive but there again Craigs list is the place. Think it is time for another nap. Will try and visit you all soon.

What I am grateful for today: Finding out about the loan. Praying about how to save on the loan. Finding a tub for the bathroom and maybe even a storage shed. Knowing enough to rest today. Being rested tomorrow so I can get the rest of this done. My daughter coming to stay with me. So it is, all is well, I love you all, Judi

FOCUS ON YOUR FUTURE NOT YOUR PAST

"Walk in balance with one foot in your spiritual understanding and one foot in
your physical world of accomplishment."

-- Lynn V. Andrews
"My soul is the bridge between spirit and body and, as such, is a uniter of
opposites. ...Without soul at center, I would either transcend into spirit or
become mired in matter."

-- Marion Woodman 

 Ram Dass talks of how his first spiritual goal was to be rid of his physical
existence. He came to understand, though, that our spirituality lies in bringing
higher consciousness to our world of form. When we can do so, we can delight in
all aspects of creation.

Soul exists in the balance of spirit and matter. For a soulful life, we pay
attention to both, seeing spiritual qualities in material forms. As our
awareness grows, we begin to use consciousness to influence and create form.
It’s through form that our spirit expresses.

Your future is a big adventure.
Prepare for your future don't live in the past.
Savor your good memories,
use any bad ones as lessons in life.

Carve out a niche for yourself in your imagined future.
Think, feel and see yourself as successful.
To achieve any goal in life, you need to project your end result.
Think of the elation, the satisfaction, the joy you'll feel.
Carry these ecstatic feelings with you every day
and they'll bring your desired goals into view.

Sooner or later, you can win if you think you can.
The cards you are dealt in life
are less important than the way you play them.
Everyday you're offered a new deal and new cards.

See this world as a free world, and see everyone in it as trying—through their individual experiences—to find their way back to that calling, back to that Source Energy. And even though there are billions of them going about it in a way that is different than you would choose, there's no right or wrong way. In other words, bless them all, and get on with the only thing you have any power about, which is opening or closing your vortex to your natural state of Well-Being.

Now you can Manifest your Future!
© 2000 June McHardy

    The following affirmation has been part of my life for many years. I don't recall where it came from - but I know that if you read it daily with confidence and faith in the universe you'll be astonished at the results!

'I now release my mind from all concerns. I let my mind go free as I RELAX completely. I am relaxed physically, mentally and emotionally and I'm free of all pressures and tensions. I let go and I let The Universe take over. All resistance is resolved and I'm ready for constructive action.

Today I EXPECT the best of every situation. I recognize no limitations and I expect to be triumphant over every negative condition and situation. I expect to be healthy and I feel the full free flow of life nourishing and building patterns of health in my entire body. I will maintain this perfect health throughout the days of my long life. I expect abundance in all things, prosperity in my business affairs, harmony and love and I expect peace, joy and love in the lives of my loved ones.

Today I RECOGNIZE the presence of God in all things. I know that back of all manifestation is the wholeness and perfection of One Mind. Divine energy flows through me and I draw upon the Infinite Source. I am a part of all things, therefore all things are available to me. The perfect opportunities and projects for me are mine by divine right and are manifesting in my life in their own perfect time.

I'm HAPPY to be alive today. I know who I am, where I'm going and what I'm here to do. I dedicate my talent, ability and efforts to the service of humanity. I find my right place in life, cooperating with the forces of growth and I dedicate myself to helping make the world a better place in which to live.

I INTEND to succeed at everything I undertake. I intend to be in perfect health throughout a long and happy life. I'm emotionally mature, mentally alert and spiritually attuned. I love to serve and I serve wisely and well. I intend to create a prosperous and joyous life for myself and my loved ones and I'm fully ready to tackle each and every opportunity that is presented to me by the universe. I choose those opportunities wisely and well and bring all my God-given intelligence and resources to the job. I intend to live up to every high expectation of myself. I'm a success on every level - as a person, in my work and in my personal relationships.

There is no doubt in my mind. I KNOW that I can go where I want to go, do what I want to do and be what I want to be. I know that all things are working out for the best and that right action is taking place in my plans and projects. The projects that I'm manifesting are exciting, fulfilling and are contributing to my growth and prosperity while at the same time allowing me to enjoy leisure time with my loved ones.

I have unlimited potential! I REALIZE that there is no limit to my achievements and experience. I'm on the pathway to perfection and I'm growing every step of the way as I realize the magnificence of my inner potential. Prosperity and success are realized as I cooperate with the creative process in bringing all good things into my life and the lives of others.

I move SERENELY forward into the adventure of life today. I'm filled with inspiration and enthusiasm and I'm guided and protected by Infinite Intelligence. Today I flex my muscles and put them to work. I make my plans and I follow them through. I take daily small steps trusting that I'm on the right path. My Big Dream is on the horizon and is being manifested in harmony with all of the creative laws of the universe. Together we get things done.

I know that there's a larger PURPOSE for me and I do everything I can to attune my thoughts, feeling and actions to that purpose. I flow with life and I revel in the release of spiritual power flowing through my being as I move steadily along to victory and accomplishment in this PERFECT, JOYOUS, MAGNIFICENT and PROSPEROUS LIFE'

My Day: I was dreaming last night about how to manifest the future I want. I had some great ideas and they stayed in this realm when the dream was over. So right after I get some sleep this morning going to start putting them into action. I did my meditation this morning. I did that at work while I was waiting for the woman to relieve me. I have not done my prayers but I will do them before I go to sleep.

I have a doctor appointment later today. Probably good it was just to get my prescription renewed but I have not been feeling just right. My stomach feels a little upset and has for several days. I have allergies going on that make it impossible for me to even see. So good timing for a tuneup at the doctors.

It is another lovely day here and I hope I feel good enough to mow today. But if not I have until tomorrow evening before I have to go back to work. Right now going to go to bed.

What I am grateful for today: That I had extra work this week so can pay for my dental and eye surgery. I want to feel better so I can go take some pictures this week. The Spring flowers are lovely and I am so grateful for the flowers and trees. I am grateful for my camera. I am grateful for my computer. I am grateful I am going to my doctor today. I am grateful I am abundantly healthy. So it is, all is well, I love you all, Judi

How Do You Think About Money

 "Choosing wealth as a goal requires facing everything about your money bravely,
honestly, with courage -- which is a very, very hard thing for most of us to do.
But it can be done."

-- Suze Orman
"Money is a highly charged subject. And most of the emotions people feel around
it are negative: fear, shame, embarrassment, anger."

-- Jerrold Mundis

Money will buy you a bed, but not a good night's sleep, a house but not a home, a companion but not a friend.

Zig Ziglar

Many of us are afraid of money. With this fear, we avoid dealing honestly and
completely with our financial situation. We only have a vague idea of how much
money we earn and spend, and even how much we owe. By refusing to accept
financial responsibility, we sacrifice our chances for a better life.

YOU DO NOT EXIST FOR YOURSELF

Your success depends on the support of other people.
The only hurdle between you and what you want to be,
is the support of others.

Put yourself in another's place,
and you'll know why they think and do certain things.
You can succeed fastest by helping others to succeed.

Always think in terms of what the other person wants.
You'll get everything in life that you want
if you'll help enough other people get what they want.
Doing things for others always pays dividends.

You're not an isolated island.
You're a piece of the planet, a piece of the universe.
Personal relationships are the fertile soil from which all advancement,
all success, all achievement in real life grows.

When you help someone's boat across a river,
you'll find your own boat has reached the shore too.

I went to get my cell phone fixed because it kept shutting down. I had to wait for them to upgrade it so went to Goodwill. I bought an electric knife, a kitchen scale, and a Vacuum Sealer which was still in the box with a price of $150. on it. Got them all for $20. So now can cook things like roast, turkey, big things and seal them for freezing. I also got a chinese painting that took up the spot in my livingroom where I took down a picture to give my daughter. I got the drum I have been looking for week.  I also bought a goard rattle. I had all kinds of fun making music when I came home. So I really got a haul.

I went out and ate shushi while I was waiting. It was so good. I guess one really love shushi or no.  I went and shopped at an expensive shoe store and got some ideas of what I might want in the shoe department for summer. But I was good and restrained myself I have so many shoes. I am a shoe collector. I went to world market and bought coffee and biscotte

I love love love to go to junk stores. I always find the best stuff. Now will have to buy at least two new cupboards to put all my new small appliances in. lol. Habitat for Humanities here I come.  I came home and cleaned out my shoes and took them to Goodwill. Sent a couple of pairs to my daughter.

What I am grateful for today. All my good finds. Having fun at the junk store. Finally finding my drum and having a gift card from Christmas to buy it.  Not arguing with my daughter. She wants to argue the past few days. I just have not done it. Not walking on Pete today. Too busy and tired. Everyone needs a break now and then. So it is, all is well, I love you all. Judi
