The Holidays Are Almost Here….

by

 Can you believe that Thanksgiving is in less than 2 weeks now and then the even more mad rush toward the New Year.

Are you already telling the same old story? “How will I ever make it through?”, “I don’t have any time to myself”,  “I hate the holidays”, “The holidays are not about spiritual things, it’s all monetary now – they’ve lost their meaning”, etc.  What are some of the stories you’ve told over the years?

This is a perfect time to change your story. Remember that when we tell a story, we’re creating more of the same. And then we wonder why we don’t get what we want. Start by telling a different story – “I really love the holidays”, “I can get through them with total calm and enjoyment”, “I am never pressed for time”, “My family enjoys this spiritual time”, etc.

Try this every day in your life. You’ll hear me talk about telling a different story over and over again because it’s such an important part of our life.

Did you know that you could use a coach to get through the holidays? I’ll be offering a “special” soon for a select group of people to help them get through the holidays. You’ll want to watch the website and your email to take advantage of this offer.

The Law of Attraction at Work in New York..

by

 Well yesterday was the first time I’d spoken with my trainer (Dan) since he went to New York. He was like a little kid at Christmas. He is a very positive man and his fiance is also extremely positive (he describes her as “bubbly” and she’d probably shoot him for using that term but oh well). He talked about how friendly everyone was in New York. For the past year he’d been quizzing me about “would he get mugged”, “what would happen if I look people in the eye and smile at them” etc.  He said that almost everyone smiled back. He also said that every place they went things returned to normal just before they got there. For example, when they would get on the subway, they would hear that another part of the line just opened up or that when they would get somewhere the power would have been restored to such and such a place.

The cutest part was when he was ready to propose. I think he had a certain place in mind but when they got to Central Park he found this fountain and there was a choir singing and he felt it was the perfect place. It went so magically that even people around him got pictures and videos for them to keep.

He was so effusive and it was very obvious that this man and his fiance brought the magic of their energy with them wherever they went. It was amazing to listen to. It’s as if they had a protective and rewarding bubble around them – they only attracted those who matched their attitude and energy. This is really what the Law of Attraction is all about. People who are grumpy don’t want to be around those who are so happy all they can do is smile. And those who are positive and ecstatic with life don’t want to be around those who are grumpy and try to bring others down. Just like oil and vinegar.

What is your energy saying today? What kind of bubble is surrounding you? Who are you attracting into your life?

Make Yourself Happy!

by

 Do you find yourself determining your actions based on what others think (or what you think they are thinking)? Do you pattern your actions around making others happy? Or, at least not having them be unhappy with you? I know this has been an issue for me in my life, especially in the past but even this past weekend when I found out that my trainer, Dan, was going to go to New York to surprise me. I felt crushed that I had made the decision not to go and didn’t consider him. Well, if you look at it closely (which I wasn’t really emotionally able to do at that time) – how on earth could I have considered him since he hadn’t told me he was going. It’s probably just as well (as he’s repeatedly told me) that I didn’t know because then I made my decision from within my heart. Read this quote from Abraham and see what I mean:

It is not your role to make others happy; it is your role to keep yourself in balance. When you pay attention to how you feel and practice self-empowering thoughts that align with who-you-really-are, you will offer an example of thriving that will be of tremendous value to those who have the benefit of observing you.

You cannot get poor enough to help poor people thrive or sick enough to help sick people get well. You only ever uplift from your position of strength and clarity and alignment.

— Abraham

Excerpted from the book “Money and the Law of Attraction: Learning to Attract Health, Wealth and Happiness” # 617

By being in balance and having my emotions balanced it will be easier for me (and you too) to affect others without any effort. People can sense where you’re coming from. They really can sense if you’re in alignment and even if they can’t articulate it, they feel it. And if they can’t put their finger on it, they really do act accordingly. If they sense you’re out of balance/out of alignment, they might steer away from you. If they sense you’re in alignment, they will be drawn to you like a magnet. Your sense of alignment and resultant happiness will attract them to you. And in being attracted they will be positively affected by your positive vibrations.

Remember the second part of the quote – this is priceless. You can feel badly about people who are suffering (they’re poor, ill, lost their homes in Superstorm Sandy or some other natural disaster) but what good will you do them if you become homeless to be “like them”? You can’t help them at all can you? You can’t become ill and have that illness take away some of someone else’s illness. It doesn’t work that way. You do the most good for yourself and others if you are in alignment, in balance, if your vibrations are as high on the emotional scale as possible and you emanate calmness and happiness. That type of  vibration is much more beneficial than feeling as if you should be like them – whatever their circumstances.

What can you do today to raise your vibration? Maybe you’re not happy with the election results – what can you do to rise above that since you can’t influence it now – you did all you could if you voted. Maybe you’re still very sad because of the effects of Superstorm Sandy – what can you do positively (internally and externally) to raise your vibration regarding that situation. It does no good to sit around and feel helpless. If you’re far away and have already donated whatever it is you feel you can, then try raising your vibration thinking of the will and determination of all the people enduring this event AND those helping the people who have had to experience this. Send positive energy to the East Coast. Make it a part of your daily routine to figure out where you are on certain things and see how you can start feeling better about it. Do NOT tell the same story and fall into all the negative conversations at work or the gym or wherever. Your job is to rise above all that negativity.

Remember – make yourself happy first – it is NOT your job to make others happy.

What is it you’re going to change today? And how? Let us know below….

Which Switch Are You Operating?

by

 What are you allowing in your life? You do realize you have control over all of what you bring in don’t you?

You have your hand on the switch. You are the allower or the resister. And your emotions tell you which you’re doing right now. It’s easy once you understand the formula: When you feel good, you’re allowing good. When you don’t feel good, you are not allowing good. We didn’t say, when you feel good you are allowing good, and when you feel bad you are allowing bad (although it may translate into your experience in that way). There is only a Source of Well-being—which you are allowing or not.

— Abraham

Excerpted from the workshop in Ashland, OR on Saturday, July 20th, 2002 # 611

 

How are you feeling right now? I am feeling pretty good about my decision to stay home from the NYC Marathon so I am allowing good to come from that. I signed up for a new course (another year long one) yesterday but I gave myself about a week and alot of EFT before making that decision. I didn’t want to just jump in and form an opinion and then “regret” it or “think I made the wrong decision” (again). So, this time (as opposed to the marathon decision) I had more time to examine my emotions and how I felt about it. The few “negative” emotions I had didn’t feel good. So I examined them and they really weren’t what I thought they were. They were  really fear based hiding under something “more acceptable” such as “I don’t have enough time” etc. EFT helped me get into the real cause of the “bad feelings” and once I uncovered them and tapped on them I was able to be “unstuck” and allow the good emotions in and the ease with which the excitement flowed into my “unstuck” drain once again amazed me.

We spend way too much time analyzing things instead of just going with our emotions and figuring out what it is they are telling us. Our goal should simply be to allow good into our lives and cherish it. We need to stop standing on our head and looking at things every which way in order to dissect them. Just go with your feelings and you’ll be right most of the time. Of course, that’s not natural for us but if we practice feeling good and as a result allowing the good in, we’ll be surprised and when we see the results, we’ll want to continue to allow the good feelings in.

Try it, you’ll like it. Partner up with someone to coach you on this. Let them guide you in your allowing good to come into your life.

Who Are Your Cooperative Components?

by

 This quote from Abraham summarizes not only the past 9 months for me, but also the past few days of working with all of you.

My Imagination Attracts All Cooperative Relationships… You have the power to evoke from others the relationships that you desire. But you cannot get to a new-and-improved situation by giving your attention to the current situation. The Universe, and all physical and Non-Physical players in it, is responding to the Vibrations that you are offering; and there is no distinction made between the Vibrations that you offer as you observe, and the Vibrations that you offer as you imagine. . . . If you will simply imagine your life as you want it to be, all cooperative components will be summoned. And even more important, all components that are summoned will cooperate. It is Law. The experience that you have with others is about what you evoke from them.

— Abraham

Excerpted from the book, The Vortex, Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships # 470

It’s really all about Cooperative Relationships. We bring others into our lives to work together. We can bring them in as Cooperative components (meaning they all work together) or Uncooperative (meaning the opposite). Naturally a person wouldn’t intentionally bring them in as uncooperative but by “telling the same old story” they will be bringing in the same character types (even with different faces) as they have been all along.

What I realized in the past several months is that it’s really all about teamwork (Cooperative Components) and I was able to bring them into my existence as soon as I thought about them. When I first started imagining and training for the NYC Marathon a year ago, I was operating from the same place I had been 11 years ago when I really did not have any resources or any type of components to assist me in reaching my desires (many reasons) so I was on my own. But this year I have a much different perspective on life and have grown over the last 11 years and although I was initially “stuck” in the old ways, as I went along, my dream became such a  large, powerful and positive force that I (with help from Kay and EFT) began to take the blinders off and see an entire world of Cooperative Components around me – all there for me to call into my world. And believe you me, I started calling them and bringing them into my inner circle.

I could never have gotten to this point without my TEAM of coaches. Each has their own aspect of my life to address, but you know what? They are all Life Coaches even though that’s not what they are called. Why do I say that? Because they are all an integral part of my life – my life, not just my training. I pulled out all the stops in the last two months and solicited AIRROSTI doctors as an additional force of my team. And if you want a laugh, you can see my AIRROSTI doc, Dr. Jackson in a very funny interview – it put a big smile on my face because I’ve watched her an “Adam” interact and they are just like this interview. But, I digress….

My personal trainer (Dan) and my EFT practitioner (Kay) have been with me the entire year. Without them I would not be where I am today. I have to say that the Internet was a coach too. I found information on my shins and hips on the Internet and that’s why I was able to get through the inevitable injuries from such long training. I had THE most Cooperative Components possible. And there were the other Components too – Abraham-Hicks, Christy Whitman, Dr. Jeanette Cates, my POD group from my coaching class and on and on and on. I listened to Abraham’s teaching every Sunday during my 5-7 hour long runs and I learned more than you can possibly imagine. I was running in the Vortex (another post to come) almost every minute of every run. And you can’t ask for anything better.

So, what Cooperative Components have you drawn into your life? Which ones can you recruit and add to your team? Do you need help thinking around your box (not just outside of it)? Do you have a stable person (or persons) you can go to whenever things are not going as you would like them? What do you think you could accomplish if you did have a coach as a Cooperative Component? Who is your coach? Would you like to reach further toward your goals. Holly reminded me the other day of my primary goal in life – to dedicate a wing of St Jude Children’s Research Hospital to my hero – Suzanne. Thank you for that Holly! Who do you have on your side to bring you back to your path to the Vortex?

Think on these questions and let me know what you think and where you think you really could go if you brought the best possible Cooperative Components into your life…comment below.
