Today’s the Day, Take the Plunge

Today is the day to stop cruising through your life and grab the wheel. You gotta stop to smell the roses or else what is the point? Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to have complete control and autonomy of your life? Well, I’m telling you it’s possible.

What Better Place Than Here? What Better Time Than Now?

You are the one who decides the path your life will take, whether by conscious choice or by circumstance. Wouldn’t you like to have more of a say in the direction your life is taking?

One of the things I hear most when working with new clients is…

“I’m just waiting for the right time.”

There is never going to be a more “Perfect” time to do anything than the moment you are in. You are in the perfect place to begin your new life.

This doesn’t mean you have to walk into your job & quit today, but it does mean that you should begin looking for a new job if the one you’re in makes you unhappy.

You can begin to change your life for the better right now, just by taking responsibility for your life. You can quit blaming the World, God, life, or whatever else you blame for your status.

I read a quote yesterday by author Michael Brown from his book “The Presence Process” that is really powerful…

“Blame is accusing the mirror for the image it reflects back.”

This is the same as blaming others for your life. For 27 years I blamed my abusers and attackers for ruining my life. I’ll link one of those stories below. Once I realized that I was the one who chose the life I was living, I also realized I was the only one who could change it.

I was able to overcome the events of the above story by changing the way that I think. I used any and every technique I could to change how I thought, like journaling, groups, one-on-one sessions, music, crying, exercise, whatever.

I made the decision that when I began to feel negative thinking or negative thoughts and desires starting to come, I would use, some form of distraction that is positive to counter them.

You can do this too, you can’t act your way into right thinking but you can think yourself into right action.

It is totally up to you where your life goes from here, what’s it gonna be?

Starting the Week Off Right…

Make the most out of your life today

Only you have the power to make it great

No one is going to make your life better for you

Destiny is what you make of it

Answer the cry of longing in your heart

You are the Master of the Universe

So get out there and show it who’s Boss!!!

You are so Strong and Powerful. Start believing in yourself and watch the Amazing things that will unfold before you.

I hope you have a wonderful week Manifesting and Actualizing your life.

As always my Spiritual Warriors, be well…
