What’s Missing In Your Life….The Story of My Dog

I bet you’re wondering what on earth my dog has to do with what’s missing in your life….am I right?

What could an animal have to do with your life? What could an animal you don’t even know have to do with your life?

Grab a cup of tea or coffee and find out…

As some of you may remember, one of my two Siberian huskies died almost 2 years ago.  I was left with Jackie and things have been rough with her (health wise) for the past year…but that will come later.

I had Jackie and Crystal for 9 years before Crystal left us. I was always yelling at them…dead birds in the house – once there was a possum (fortunately I was away and my neighbor got the brunt of that wonderful woman that she is). I had to get bookcases with glass doors so they wouldn’t eat the books. I had to “doggie proof” the house every day when I went to work – put things away or push them away from the edge of the table or counter, close all the doors etc. Don’t get me wrong – I loved them but they were what I considered “typical” huskies – always in trouble.

Well, once Crystal left and it was just Jackie and me, I quickly realized that Jackie was THE PERFECT DOG. I have had dogs all my life and she is the most well behaved and really perfect dog I’ve ever seen. She does NOT get into anything, doesn’t catch things, doesn’t get up on the counter or table, doesn’t eat books etc. AND she follows commands. I was truly amazed…but also felt pretty guilty. Why? Because I had spent all these years yelling at both of them when it was really only Crystal that was being bad, not Jackie. I should have been loving her for being so special.

What had happened is what happens to many of us. We don’t look beyond the surface. We go along with a blind eye to the details or to what’s behind the external appearance. How often have you hear “don’t judge a book by its cover”? That’s the same thing. And I’ll tell you that that has happened to me more than once. I have had people ignore me in furniture stores or house shopping because I was wearing blue jeans or cut off shorts. But then when they find out I wanted to pay cash for the whole enchilada (if I stayed in that store – remember “Pretty Woman” where the lady wouldn’t wait on her and she had all that money to spend), their attitude was different.

So what should you do now? Take a look around you but don’t be in a hurry for once – we move way too fast in this world today. Look at things in your life but then look past the surface. Is there something beneath the surface that you are grateful for or that has more meaning than you think. What’s right there in front of you that you’ve been searching for all your life.  Have you read “Acres of Diamonds“? You should – it’s about a man who wanted to be rich and was searching all over his world for diamonds and sold his land to go search some more. Turns out there were diamonds all over his very own property but he had never looked there.

What riches are you missing out on because you’re not looking?

Once you find those riches, do not neglect them! Pay attention to what you love and find today.

Law of Concsiousness – Part 2

Here’s the second part of The Law of Consciousness – start putting the principles in these two posts into practice today!

see who was the authority in your life. This authority still affects your life today. When you realize you were told things that you don’t choose to believe, then you can use denials and affirmations. That is the Law of Mind Action, which means to deliberately make choices to change your belief system to what you want to believe.

We’re learning to live by choice. We want to live by choice. It’s the job for our soul growth to get back to the Garden of Eden through our own choices. The Garden of Eden is whatever we are and want that will make our lives happy, whole, healthy and complete. That is what we call prosperity and this idea of wholeness we want our lives to be and to become.

Look at the positive side of all of the people, friends and relatives who told you things. We have within us ideas that say, “When you grow up, this is what you can be.”

Whatever our parents were is put into our minds and thoughts. If our parents were in the medical field, we have a tendency to dream of that when we grow up. We want that also. If our parents were teachers, professors or firefighters, that may be what we want.

Our mind as a five-year-old could have geared us toward that simply because we took pride in what our parents were. Now you’ve reached an age where that doesn’t apply to you anymore. You may not want to be a surgeon, nurse, doctor or teacher. Your soul may have come in for some other purpose in life.

We have this purpose deeply ingrained within us. It will cause us to be deeply dissatisfied if we are not on our chosen path. We chose that path before we came into this life experience. Look at your chosen field and say, “Is this what I really want to do, or is this something someone else wanted me to do?”

What is our belief system around what we thought our destiny was meant to be? Frequently we discover that what we thought was our work on planet Earth is not really the work we enjoy doing. Our life presence is different for each of us. Each of us has dreams, goals and ideals that are born with us.

I firmly believe that each of us has a Divine plan. What we have grown with has been a part of that Divine plan. If we had much to overcome as we grew, it gave us strength. Maybe we had a lot of situations growing up that caused us to be strong and determined. That will be very beneficial for what you want to do in your life and how successful you are.

That is a part of what is buried in your subconscious. If you were told as a child that you were stubborn or hardheaded, it can be a benefit to you in your chosen field of work. In a relationship, being stubborn and hardheaded is not very good. It interferes with the flexibility we need and the dreams and goals we share with our partners. Remember, we have different ideas, dreams and goals to manifest.

There are four things that we have to do:

1. We come into this world to master our physical bodies and have health and harmony of the body.

2. We come into this world to have wonderful relationships.

3. We come into this world to have financial supply.

4. We come into this world to have soul awareness that will give us the pleasures and attitudes that are ours by Divine right.

When we list these things, we realize that everything we do each day is guiding us toward or away from these goals. It makes us more aware of how we can make the changes in our lives. If we determine what is buried in our subconscious, we can look at it and say, “Do I choose to believe that any longer? Is this something I don’t wish to have in my life?”

If I had a relative who died early, it doesn’t mean everybody who came after that person will have the same health problems. We can change that belief. We live according to the God belief within us and according to when our job is finished. When we stay aware, we are more able to go into different kinds of work to do the things we were placed here to do.

We simply need to ask, “Show me the next step of my Divine plan. I’m not finished yet, God. Show me another step. Show me where I’m going. Show me what I’m doing. Show me what is next.”

All of the things in the subconscious will rise up within us to point out the direction we are meant to take and the new ideals, goals and dreams that are possible to do, believe, say and have.

We need to realize that it is the attitude and the feeling of life within us that is this God presence or this Energy. It is this wonderful thing within us that we call the Christ Presence and the spirit of God. It is this Divine Spark that constantly guides and directs us when we get out of the way of our error belief systems and points of view.

Metaphysics is a wonderful place for us to put into effect that which we believe. We can pour energy into our affirmations. We can visualize and claim our good.

If we believe there is a loving energy that will give to us all of the things we choose to have in our lives, then our solutions will be the proper ones.

If we believe in barrier, overcoming and struggle, we need to let go of those ideas. Those are not truth ideas. God does not place barriers in front of us. God places ease, comfort and wonderful solutions in front of us. The ideas, dreams and goals in front of us are placed there for us to have lives of pleasantness, peace and joy. This is your life.

When you remove all barriers and inaccuracies from the subconscious mind, the Law of Consciousness begins to work and attract all of the things your heart desires. It will attract to you health, happiness, harmony, peace of mind, joy, love and all of the good that is yours by Divine Right. You can accept that and love it. Now is the time.

Beyond The Law of Attraction – The Other Laws

Since “The Secret” came out people think that the Law of Attraction is “it” – the only way to make things happen in your life.

Well, that’s just not true. There are many Universal (or Spiritual) Laws.

Today we’ll talk about The Law of Consciousness – part 1.
Law of Consciousness, the first Law we study. It gives you the ideas, knowledge and understanding to help you determine what your life is all about.

As you look back on your life, you can see how the Law of Consciousness plays a part. It helped make things happen that you did not wish to happen, as well as the unexpected, wonderful surprises that occurred.

you have accept that, from the time of the embryo, we hear. Scientific research has explained that, within the soul and brain of the infant, is consciousness. They hear even while in the womb.

It doesn’t start at birth. It begins even before that. From before birth onward, the things you heard, thought and felt created a pattern within you. This includes everything you had explained to you, even from television and radio.

Everything you have heard, thought, felt or read or anything from your senses makes an impact on the subconscious. Your subconscious simply plays back like a computer what you or someone else has put into it.

Maybe you heard as an infant that you look just like a parent. When you grew to be 10 to 15 years old, you discovered that parent had some problems, attitudes, feelings or habits you didn’t want in your life. If it was ingrained in you from birth that you were just like that parent, then you have problems with the same things your parent did.

It’s very easy to remove yourself from these problems when you realize and recognize what they are. Recognition is the greatest key to change.

We have four major areas to master:

1. Our physical body. We have to master health and harmony in our bodies.

2. Relationships. We have to learn to harmonize and be at peace.

3. Money. We have to master our financial assets.

4. Soul awareness. Our soul awareness constantly brings us new information, wisdom and understanding of the activities and the work we came here to do.

We are constantly attracting and manifesting results according to our beliefs. During our earth learning process, we have two ways to master physical results. Both are necessary as we develop toward our total soul potential.

1. Attraction. We attract to us what we are.

2. Manifestation. We mold things from the invisible substance to the visible.

This is where we sometimes become confused. We say we will attract something into our lives. What we really mean is that we want to manifest it. Sometimes we say we will manifest it when we mean we will attract it.

Both are necessary. We want to attract people and situations into our lives. We want to attract results. We also want to manifest a great financial supply and ideas of wisdom and understanding. We want to manifest the ideas and inspiration that allow us the newness and excitement of life.

The Law of Consciousness is the first and most important. We develop, ask and interpret things that we already believe in. We realize there are many we don’t choose to hold onto in our lives. There are many things we believe that we don’t want to believe. There are many things that are in error.

Belief systems are brought into our lives by many different methods. We have what our parents, ministers and teachers have told us. Other people gave us what they believed to be fact and truth.

Facts change according to new understandings and new knowledge. They change according to the power and presence we give these ideas within us.

We have the old ideas and thoughts of diseases that people are supposed to have throughout their lives. There are a certain percentage of people who are supposed to have colds or the flu.

These negative aspects do not have to apply to us. They were given to us at a time when our soul did not know that we were able to evaluate those things and bring them to a different solution for ourselves.

In the Law of Consciousness, we want to look at these attitudes and ideals that no longer apply to us. Find a pencil and paper.

I’d like you to do a discovery. The Law of Consciousness will help you discover what your beliefs are. This is the most important Law in your life.

Many things were given to you at a time when you were not able to discern truth from fiction, fact from fiction or absolute from non-absolute. Today you see with a different viewpoint that puts you in charge of your life. This energy we call “God” can change and transform everything you choose to transform in your life.

With your pencil and paper, I want you to begin a list. We take on the qualities of the people around us. List your relatives, beginning with your parents. Then list your parents’ prominent qualities. If you were raised by someone other than your parents, use their names.

If your mother’s prominent quality was gentleness, put it down. If your father’s prominent quality was generosity, put it down. It is important in how you perceive your own life to be. If your parents’ dominant qualities were abusive, angry or hostile, write those down.

You’ll show yourself how you relate to your parents and children. Your parents’, grandparents’, great-grandparents’ and great-great grandparents’ belief systems, fears, anxieties and religions have all been passed down to you. Even what you like to eat comes from them. Everything comes from what you were born into.

If you’re still having the same experiences you had as a child or are still surrounded by the same kinds of people, those lessons haven’t been learned yet. That is the importance of the Law of Consciousness.

After you list your parents, think of your grandparents, if you knew them well. What were their qualities? Were they the same as your parents? Did you have a grandparent who was angry or hostile or didn’t like to have children around? Were your grandparents loving, kind and happy? Were they wonderful? Did you prefer to be with them? Next list your aunts’, uncles’ and siblings’ qualities.

Find the pattern. If you have 10 people in your life who are very unproductive, what are your chances for success? If you have many relatives who are go-getters, movers and shakers, what is your chance of being successful? Look at both sides, the productive and the unproductive.

Now look at your school friends growing up. What were their qualities? As you grew older, there were things like jealousy and boyfriends or girlfriends. What did you attract in that time and place? Did you attract relatives, friends and schoolmates who were happy, harmonious, loving and kind?

Did you attract angry people? If you’ve had abusive people in your life, are you attracting more abusive people in spite of having said to yourself, “I never again want anybody in my life who treats me this way.”?

When you study the Law of Consciousness, look back on your life to see why you attracted people and situations for your learning experiences. You have to handle them properly so you don’t need to have that experience again.

Once you have listed your relatives’, parents’ and friends’ prominent qualities, you have a pattern of positive and/or negative. Usually you will have both. You’ll have the very positive people who told you as a child, “You can do anything you choose to do. You have to believe in yourself.” You’ll also have people who said, “You’re too little. You can’t do that. You’re not strong enough. You’re too weak. You’re not healthy enough.”

Those things may have been said to you at a time when you were very much open to other people’s opinions. They’ve made your life what it is today.

Think of the quotes you heard. They gave you your ideas of lack and limitations. They told you what you think about money, relationships and the physical body. All of the things you’ve ever been told are important.

A teacher can influence us so strongly in the first and second grade. That is the time we’re open to any authority. Once you discover the ideas you have, especially the negative, you can say, “Which authority person told me I couldn’t, or I was too little? How important a part did that authority person play in my life? Was it someone I knew just a little or someone I was with everyday?”

There’s much, much more….so keep tuning in…,
