I experienced this a couple of weeks ago…

I was trying to figure out why things in my life appeared to be so out of control and I found myself doubting my ability to create the things I wanted and enjoy them. I realized that in the midst of meeting all the” demands” I had put on my life’s plate I had not been focusing my energy on listening to ME.

There is a great Latin proverb that says “Nosce te ipsum” translated into “Know Thy Self”.

Each of us has in internal guidance system that is available to us in every moment and experience we have. This guidance inspires us with creative ways to express ourselves so that we can live a life we love.

I chose to take several days out of my “busy” schedule for the sole purpose of hearing myself…and guess what took place? I became extremely clear about what was taking place in my life and I was inspired with a creative new business venture that I know will allow me to create greater prosperity.

Focus and clarity are key when you are trying to build the life you want and consciously choosing to listen to your Self will go long way.

Practical Application

Commit at least 15 minutes a day, preferably, when you first wake up to sitting in silence and listening. It’s really that simple. As you move about in your day if you begin to feel “stressed” about a situation you can take several deep breaths and focus on those breaths. Doing this helps you focus your energy inward where all the guidance you need awaits you so that you can know thy Self.

Be Sure

Be Safe,

Believe

Be… cause.

Some asked me about the ‘be cause’ statement and what I meant by it.

Well here’s the short explanation:

You create your reality. You are “at cause” for the “effects” in your life.

So, you have two choices, you can cause negative effects or positive effects.

Every time you are confronted with a situation or decision to make, what you choose will fit into those categories.

Many people think there is a third category, which is remaining neutral. But staying in place is being stagnant. If you think about stagnant water, it’s a place where negative things are allowed to grow and breed. You should always be moving forward.

You want to be in the positive category in everything you do. This may seem like a huge undertaking. That’s because it is.

While it’s easy enough to stay positive when things are going well, when hard balls are flying at you it’s always difficult to be strong and positive. This is where a proper mindset comes into play.

If you have trained yourself to always look for the positive, you will be better able to overcome these hurdles.

Even better is you can be the cause of your own happiness and success. When the world around you seems stagnant, if you have a ‘Be Cause’ mindset, you can use that mindset to manifest new opportunities and experiences that will help you create and enjoy a more positive future.

In order to have the right mindset to be cause in your life, you may need a little self-development boost. I’ve used Plus Kits, and their variety of self-development CD’s which can help you help your brainwaves.

So how does one go about changing his or her mind-set? How can someone harness this incredible power of the human mind in order to better control his or her physical health and strength? The first step is to change your attitude. It all begins with this concept. Once one understands that his or her attitude controls his or her thoughts, he or she can begin to understand the totality of his or her individual make-up and the world that he or she can create for themselves.

In other words, your perspective can change the outcome of any given situation. For example, let’s say someone gets fired from his or her job. On the one hand, a person may perceive this as a disaster. He or she has no income, a reduced livelihood and the potential for financial ruin if he or she allows him or herself to become despondent. This is one potential outcome.

The other side of this coin is to understand that one door closing is another opening up. Getting fired is the opportunity to find a better job. One that pays more and one that is more fulfilling to the individual. Oftentimes, one is stuck at a certain point in his or her life and getting fired from his or her job can be the catalyst for change. The next job he or she gets is a step up and his or her life can be improved dramatically. This is the other potential outcome of getting fired.

So, which of these possibilities is correct? Both and neither. It all depends on the attitude and perception of the person who experiences it. Always keep in mind the concept what you think about, you bring about. Thinking that getting fired is a horrible thing will make it so. Thinking of a firing as an opportunity in life will make it so, as well.

This is not an easy thing to incorporate into one’s life. It takes patience and practice. Try starting out with a simple mental mantra like, “I can do this” or “It is all about how you look at things”. Repeat these phrases and others of a positive affirmation and it will get easier. Think positive and your mind will become conditioned to the fact that things are how you view them. But one must also take action on this knowledge by living these concepts in practice.

If you believe the world is a cesspool of depravity, this is what you will see. Believe the opposite – that the world is a place of goodness and well-meaning people and this will become the reality. Take charge of your mind and attitude and this will lead to whatever your heart desires.

You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I’m telling you why
God is coming to town

He’s making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice
God is coming to town

God sees you when you’re sleeping
God knows when you’re awake
God knows if you’ve been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

Oh! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I’m telling you why
God is coming to town

Obviously these aren’t the lyrics to this well known song…but hang with me for a minute …I’ll explain where I’m going with this:

I think sometimes we can ‘rob’ God of the awesome power that God has…and we do this by ‘humanizing’ God.

We make God ‘in our image’ versus the opposite. We give God our human-like qualities and limitations like jealousy, judgment, and a plethora of other grossly limiting human characteristics – Just like Santa Claus.

One of the very first things I’ve learned in studying the Law Of Attraction is that it seems to break God out of the box (or chimney) we stuff God in. It shows that God is ALL-powerful and has unlimited ability to do any and everything.

You’ll notice I don’t refer to God as “he” or “him” because again…can I really put God in the ‘box’ of gender? I think God is so much larger than “a dude”.

The lyrics, “He’s making a list and checking it twice, Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice…” is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. God, being in the infinite entity of love isn’t sitting somewhere in the sky with a pimped-out laptop computer keeping tally of all the things you do good and bad; then making a ‘judgment’ call about great your rewards or how severe your punishment may be i.e sinning. That’s ridiculous.

What I see, in the plain of the singular energy (God), is that the energy you place out into the Universe is what you get. Because there is only the one source energy – God and we’re all a part of that same energy. We aren’t separate from God (nor each other).

So it’s impossible to look at ‘sinning’ in that way. I think sinning is an act of energy. You put energy out into the Universe and you get that same energy back. It’s just that simple. You do something “bad” like stealing, you’ll get that same energy back. Not necessarily someone stealing from you…but you’ll get back the energy of lack and limitation that stealing comes from. If you do something that helps the community, you’ll get back the energy of sharing, loving and abundance – period.

Everything else is made up constructs to create fear, limitations and control.

Practical Application
Think about how you are seeing God. Are you trying to stuff God into some cramped chimney? If so, you’re totally ripping God off of the awesome power that God really is.

Let’s strive for an ‘inhumane’ God!!
