Personal Empowerment - Where Are You Searching For Happiness?

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

Are you giving your power away while searching for happiness?

In today’s world people are actually in pursuit of happiness. There are books being written and there are seminars all over the world being given on the topic of happiness. Many people are currently experiencing a sense of emptiness, and they want to get rid of that sentiment.

One of the conclusions I have come to, as I am observing and studying successful people is that there is a clear difference between pleasurable moments and true inner happiness.

Pleasurable moments can be (more…)

Want To Discover Your Passion? Part 3

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

“The true definition of Success is to be happy and fulfilled.”

The last couple of days we have looked at the question of passion…
#1.    Discover what you want.

#2.    Personify your passion – ask forgiveness for whatever way you have neglected your passion in the past, and move forward.
And today, #3 – Are you making time for your passion or are you letting your passion get distracted? Our culture has often focused on time management in order to get more things done. However there is something a lot more empowering than time management and that is management of your emotions. When I learned the latter my life became more productive and less busy.

If you can  get real honest with yourself and take time to sit and reflect on your pattern of  being and reacting… you will get clues as to how you handle your emotions. The more grounded you can be, and the more you can let go of the emotions that are no longer serving you -  such as feeling overwhelmed, regret, and impatience the more time and energy you will have to spend on your passion.

“The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us along the path to its fulfillment.” Earl NIghtingale (more…)

Discover What Makes For Deeply Felt Happiness?

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Experiencing pleasurable moments and being truly happy are not synonymous in my mind.

There are many times in years gone by, where what I was experiencing at the moment was very pleasurable. I was spending time with people I love - I was outside with the sun shining brightly - I was eating my favorite foods  - I was walking along the beach and so on… You get the picture, as you have had those moments yourself. Yet, years ago, I was not always feeling happy on the inside, during those moments. There were occasions where I felt there was still something missing, though I could not necessarily describe that feeling or label the emotion.

With more observation and greater awareness, I come to see that there are many folks who have a life of pleasure - they are in a good position financially, they spend a lot of time in recreational activities, party a lot with friends, they go out to many events, yet they are not experiencing happiness.

On the other hand I have seen people who are not spending as much time in recreational activities, who are on purpose and doing work they love, who may have devoted their life to a cause that is dear to them. They get a lot done, are acknowledged in their particular field, yet they are not completely happy either.

So what is the secret to this feeling of happiness that we all seek? (more…)

The Winds of Change - Why Do We Resist Change?

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Changing careers, embarking on a new health regime, or thinking about getting into a new relationship can be all things that we desire, yet thinking of change can bring up internal resistance on our part, and we may not be able to explain to ourselves, why. That’s because change is really tied more with how we are Being than what we are Doing.

We are ever expanding growth seeking beings - therefore change calls out to us frequently. Some folks have been able to get to the place where they can embrace change. They now have an attitude of adventure, of fun, and of how can I enhance my life. Whereas others desire new results, yet feel afraid to make a change, and (more…)

Discover How Being Healthy Will Greatly Assist You In Manifesting.

Monday, August 4th, 2008

What vision of health and well being to you hold for yourself?

Thoughts are powerful things and they actually have a great impact on your state of health, and in fact, on all areas of your life. You and only you can control your thoughts.

This may bring you a feeling of relief or it might really annoy you. It depends on what you are currently experiencing in your physical body.

Quantum physics have proven that thoughts are very powerful processes that help you create your life. It is simply logical to state that it is much easier to think positive, life enhancing thoughts, when we are feeling well in our body rather than when we are feeling sick. (more…)

Do You Have A Daily Practice That You Adhere To?

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Will it be the bed that wins or your desired results?

Daily practice are words that could bring up feelings of guilt for not getting something done, boredom, tediousness, rigidity OR they could bring thoughts of success.

Here it is - an early summer morning and I have been up since about 5:15 a.m.- yet getting up this early has not been a constant practice for the last several months. It is not that I do not want to get up - or that the alarm does not go off - simply put - the bed remains extremely inviting - as the cool morning breeze flows gently through the window, and I am wrapped in a soft cotton sheet.

Yet, I know with the constant practice of getting up this early it will free up time (more…)
