Excuses

Stuck in a bad circumstance? Still in the dark? Sit and contemplate what you want and begin aligning your thoughts with what you want.

If our thoughts are aligned with what we don’t want, then that is all we will attract into our lives. See what you want, feel it in your bones, then act accordingly as it is already on its way. Self-defeating thoughts will continue to irk you into thinking it is not attainable…let go of those thoughts and embrace a new memory of, “I know that things are continuously changing for the better.”

“Anything that stops you or diverts you from reaching your goals and dreams is an excuse!”~Michael Bloxton

The excuses will inevitably creep in, or try too, don’t give in…stay the course and see the world as you see fit. Anytime someone says, “yeah, that sounds great in all, but you don’t know what I am going through.” I inadvertently will ask them, “How’s your practice?” Excuse me? “Yes, how’s your practice? Are you practicing new thought processes, that will align you with what you truly want?” Sadly the response is often the same, “That stuff doesn’t really work.” They are correct whether they believe it does or it does not for that is the memory engrained into their thought process. The formula to success  is the same for all people and any given situation…You have to see it to believe it!

The canvas of life is not meant to be lived in misery, but instead enjoyed to the fullest. Step into the Canvas with a new attitude, “My life is going to be different from this day forward and I am the Master of my fate.” Choose to be happy…I dare you!

Positive Living

While it is true Positive cannot exist without negative, we do not have to remain in negative. Too often we fall victim to the trap of negativity around us and remain in self-pity. Suffering will always exist, but does not mean we have to dwell in negativity. It is as easy as changing our thoughts from negative to positive – similar to that of a light switch. Throw the switch now.

Too often We hear positive messages and immediately think, “yeah if you only knew my situation.” While it is true we do not know what another is experiencing, we can have compassion for them. At the same time they do not know what we are going through. A relative posted on Facebook, “If we threw all of our troubles into a pile and asked to pick a problem from the bucket we surely would pick our own, once viewing the others problems.”

Our perception dictates how we see the world around us. We can choose to see negativity or positivity that surrounds us daily. An example of this is our daily weather report. One network toots rain and gloom for the next few days, while the other boasts sunny and beautiful. Clearly it is one perception versus the other. I often will ask patients for the weather report, engaging in small talk, and depending on the network they watch or even their own perception of how the days will unfold will tell me how their perception of the day will be.

Further, their thoughts can influence my thoughts if I allow them too. If I choose to allow this, I too fall victim to negativity. Choose to listen only to the Positive weather report for that perception or reality we want to live. This is not living in a false belief system, for either way we look at things is correct….I merely choose positive side of things or as Carlos Castaneda discusses “The Active Side of Infinity.”
