I just created a group on Facebook that you may be interested in
being a part of.

It’s called, “What do you love to do?” The intention is for
you to share what you are passionate about, it can be a business
that you’re in or would like to get in.

Or it could be a hobby that you love and you’re perfectly happy
for it to remain that way.

Whatever it is, share it anyway as you never know how it may
inspire another person or what opportunities may evolve.

Hope to see you on Facebook,

Neale Donald Walsch is well known for the book, “Conversations with God” – Here’s a great little video that captures a part of that.

We often think that if things aren’t going well for us, to have things change, we have to “do” something different. There’s a saying that goes, “if you want what you’ve never had, then you need to do what you’ve never done”. But the thing is, you can’t create lasting change through action alone.

There’s always one thing that happens before action is taken, and that is “thought”. Whether you are conscious of it or not, you have an idea that leads to you getting up and doing something.

The problem is, without a foundational shift within you, the actions you take will most likely lead to recreating very similar circumstances again.

Let me give an example, lets say that each month you keep aiming to save money but invariably you find that something crops up with you car or your home and you have to spend the saved amount. It seems like there’s no choice but to take the action of getting a second job in order to begin saving.

What we don’t realize is that this action is based on either doubt, fear or worry! When we take actions from this place of powerlessness, the results can never be what you want because your focus is on avoiding what you don’t want!

Let me say this another way, when you take actions in the “hope” that something will turn out well, because you fear or worry that it won’t, then your underlying feelings are shining a light on the things you not wanting. And life has a way of giving us whatever is our dominant focus rather than what we may say we want!

You may notice how people will say, “I just knew things weren’t going work out”, how can they know it? It was their dominant intent.

The thing is, how we feel about something is what we send out in a vibrational sense. To understand this, think about sharks, they sense vibrations in the water and their instinct is to attack and eat something that vibrates fear. It’s for this reason that people that are completely comfortable with sharks can be in the water with them, the shark senses that they are at ease and therefore not something that triggers the attack instinct within them.

You’ve probably heard about the Law of Attraction, this law states that like vibrations are always attracted to each other. So if you focus on something you desire and “feel” anxious or overwhelmed, then don’t take action yet, your dominant vibration will be the anxiousness and overwhelm!

The time to take action is when it feels like a natural, logical step to take, without forces or struggling. Strain, pain and effort don’t come into the equation when you are aligned from within. Success is guaranteed when you are aligned because you realize that the joy of being aligned is the real success, the outcome of it just a nice bonus!

Remember, you can outwardly pretend be a positive person but unless you make small changes so that you feel better within yourself in the moment, the success you desire is likely to stay at bay.

In society, money seems to be considered a necessary “evil” and religions have often used the phrase that “the love of money is the root of all evil”. But why would something inanimate like money be the root of all evil?

It’s got to do with how we as people, transfer our power to this medium of exchange. We’re born with no real understanding of the abundant nature we are and so from the moment we arrive, we gather data to work out how we fit in with this world.

At some point, we work out that having money enables us to experience bigger and better things. And so the innate desire for expansion, desires more money to have that freedom to experience whatever is in the heart to experience.

But then we also gain an understanding that people have done bad things at times to get more money and so we grow up with this conflicted feeling within us.

On the one hand we want more money, but on the other, we may either need to take advantage of others in some way or be seen as a person with lower morals to get it.

This line of thinking is what happens unconsciously from a young age that then shapes the way we feel about money and those that have money as we become adults. But what’s the truth?

1. Money is neutral, it’s neither good or bad

2. People get lost In thinking that money will give them something more than it’s actually designed for (like happiness for example)

3. People then place a higher value on money than the relationships with other people

4. The people close to the ones that are caught up in the money trap then think that money is the issue and that money is what’s causing that person to behave in an evil or uncivil way

5. It’s the thinking and interpretation of money that has led the person to take actions that may be less than compassionate towards other people.

In summary, the purpose of money is to be a mechanism where we can exchange one thing of value for another, in an easy to use form, it’s not to make us happy or otherwise. The accumulation of money can be done in honorable ways or dishonorable ways, it all depends on your beliefs around it.

And finally, rather than the love of money being the root of all evil, I would say that to be ruled by money, or anything else for that matter, is the root of all pain. It’s only when you realize your true nature and that you can have whatever is in your heart to experience in a way where not only you benefit, but everyone involved benefits, can you find the freedom to live a life that is truly joyous.

So first I looked up the definition, the dictionary defines it as an excessive desire to acquire or possess more than what one needs or deserves, especially with respect to material wealth.

Ok, who decides what is excessive?

Well, someone who sees the world as scarce and feels there’s not enough to go around. In some bizarre way, this person thinks that if we all limit ourselves, then everyone gets taken care of. I don’t think so.

Look at it this way, if I have a big pie and I don’t share it, someone will come along and say I’m greedy. This is because a feeling of insecurity is triggered within them and so to take care of this “poor” feeling, they make me wrong. In their mind, the starving people of the world could be taken care of with my pie! As if my creating stops another from creating!

I know it sounds crazy, but the mind in survival mode doesn’t use logic and when we feel threatened, we’ll look for any reason to justify our position. How many kids are told to finish all their food because there are starving kids in Africa?

The way I see it is that our nature is one of abundance, and if I have a pie, whatever I choose to do with it is a choice that doesn’t stop anyone else from creating his or her own pie also.

The perception of greed exists when we don’t see the abundance that exists all around us and so we feel compelled to condemn another that displays it.

The other side of this is that when we fear not having enough for us, we behave in essentially the same way as what we hate in another.

Greed is an idea that sits on the other side of “fairness”, and most of us are brought up to behave fairly, particularly if you have siblings. The problem is that a lot of us have taken on these ideas of fairness based on things like “you can’t have it all”, or “you can’t have your cake and ear it”! It’s all a lie.

These ideas have been passed down from small limited minds that have experienced oppression and scarcity and have learned to live a shadow of their potential.

The truth is, you don’t have to be fair or greedy, when you get in touch with your essence, you know where you’re standing when you take the actions you do. And you CAN have it all, if that’s what your heart desires. No one can stop you when you are in alignment with YOU.

But all of this is just words without any real meaning when you haven’t found a way to free yourself from the old story, the old conditioned way of thinking that keep you in the illusion of safety.

To free yourself from the story though, requires changing the consciousness that you bring in this moment. And I’ve found that a little help goes a long way here. I highly recommend the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).

The point is, you have the power to live the life you desire, when you are willing to accept responsibility for where you are now. No one has forced you to be where you are, you simply did what you believed was required based on your past conditioning. Without awareness, you have felt as though you had no power, and unconsciously you perpetuated the same circumstances.

Remember, this is not about the “time” or what you do with your time, it’s about bringing awareness to this moment that has you then create the next moment consciously. Your conscious awareness is what has life become brighter, from there your choices open up and you can begin to become the deliberate creator you were born to be.

See if you can become aware of when you say to someone that you don’t have time and notice how that feels within you.

Warmest Regards,

This is the final part of this article and probably the most important thing to get from this post is that as students, we get to choose which direction we want to go in.

What this means is that life (as the teacher), doesn’t impose itself onto us, whenever we’re ready, we get what we need. The sooner we realise that we are the ones that create our reality, the sooner we get to live more joyfully.

The only reason that things may not be going as you would like them to go is because you haven’t yet opened up to new possibilities and life (as the teacher), keeps showing you difficulties so that you look for a new way.

So you see, even when things are not as we like, there are little gems to help us to change direction.

The question is, are you willing to give up that old conditioned part of you?

Much Love,

Henry Ford once said, “Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.”

Why would he say this, when it seems that all we do is think all day long?

It would seem that the thinking Henry is talking about is not the same thinking that we associate with in daily life.

My interpretation is that real thinking requires consciousness with an awareness that understands that thoughts are not fixed, they can be manipulated and directed by us, and therefore we are “free” to choose what we think.

Most of the time in our daily lives though, our mind is simply busy with thoughts of no real value, what we saw on TV, a song we heard, what someone said to you recently or some belief you have about yourself. We’re not consciously choosing these thoughts, it’s just head chatter that enables us to exist in the world in a basic instinct mode.

Examples of thinkers are, Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, Dale Carnegie, Henry Ford and Isaac Newton. Why were they different to most people? Some would say these people were great visionaries but I suspect that they simply understood that they could direct their mind to “think” in such a way that enabled them to see greater possibilities for the future.

The question is, do you really want to reclaim your freedom so that you can have choice?

The mindfulness practices I’ve talking about in previous emails are a great start, and, I know that old conditioning can still get in the way. So if you’d like to be guided in a step-by-step way on how to use your mind to think with consciousness that feels good and will ultimately lead to serious change, check out this link:
