As you pursue your goals and dreams, you find along the way haters that will try to do whatever they can to kill them. Jealously, hatred and out right lies come spewing out of their mouths; because they hate the fact that you are doing anything important at all. Some have the nerve to tell you ‘well meaning’ of course, that no ones done it, so why should you. “What makes you so special?’ some might say. Then there are those who just try to do everything from distracting you (‘come on lets party’) to trying to ruin your reputation. All of this wasted energy on their part; but it doesn’t have to be on yours by retaliating. I know some of you want to snatch some haters and give them the business, others want to sue, then there are those who take the high road like yourself by creating a great life. The last option is the best one!

No matter what you do to better your life, some one or some ones will definitely not like it. It reminds them of what they could be doing and don’t do. Just running their mouths (talking loud and saying nothing!).  I know a lot of you get frustrated with those people but taking the high road by creating a great life makes you feel good. Never mind getting back at them; it just makes perfect sense. Why set yourself up for karma? (and trust me, it can be a Beeotch!).  Living well opens doors to prosperity that will not only benefit you, but the ones close to you. Others who are serious will see your light and want to know how you did it and want to do it too.

Why be vengeful of those whose negativity is bringing them down already?  Keep it moving, bless and release them, then keep on keeping on. It will amaze you.

YES! Living Well IS The Best Revenge!

from Tyler Perry’s play ‘Madea Goes To Jail’

It is very important to pay attention to our lives and what is going on around us. No, we don’t have to watch every iota of the news or get all the gossip, but by being conscious. What is being conscious? According  dictionary, conscious is ‘aware of what one is doing’. Simple enough but how many folks actually do that? How many folks truly question the decisions made in their lives? You’d be surprised!

Case in point,  lets say you go out on several dates with someone you really like. All seems to be going well, then you notice certain behaviors your date displays that don’t work for you. Like being rude to the waitstaff when at dinner, cussing at the traffic or feeling entitled to cutting the line at a movie premiere. Your gut is screaming….JERK ALERT, yet you rationalize it all by saying people can have bad days at times. Does it have to happen ALL the time? You grin and bear it….until next time when he snaps at you for a dress you adore and he says its crap. You bought it at Nordstrom’s and they carry quality mind you. You feel like showing him the door, but you figure it’ll smooth over. Really?

Most folks reading this would be cussing out loud because they feel justified and they’re right. It is said that a person shows you who they are; it is up to us to pay attention. That jerk would have been showed the door, be asked to eliminate my phone number from his contact list AND to walk on the other side of the street when he sees me. I’m exaggerating a bit, but you get my point. Never make someone your priority, while they make you their option. A wonderful point to live by as you live consciously.

One more example before I close deals with gossip. Elders say that the dog who brings the bone will carry it. This means that one who gossips with you will gossip about you. You are at your work and the busy body of the company tells you something about a boss who is having an affair. You listen and want to join in. Do you? Most would because it sounds juicy; you on the other hand shut up. Why? You know she’s the busy body and tells everything she knows, so why add more fuel to the inferno? If you do, she’ll relay what you said to others while leaving out what she said. Since you are fully aware of this, you continue to hold your tongue then change the subject. She moves on to her next victim as you live consciously.

These are just small examples, yet it encompasses the total package of our lives; from what we eat, wear, listen to and believe in. It’s all choice really, so how will you live consciously?

Before your problems can be resolved, there must be a mental and emotional housecleaning. The use of denial, or the “no” power of the mind, is offered you for that purpose.

A businesswoman had had a house for rent for months. Needing the rental income to help put her children through college, she diligently made affirmation upon affirmation for its rental. Nothing happened. Upon learning of the “no” power of the mind, she realized why her affirmations had not worked– they had not cleared her mind of fearful anxiety. Thereafter, when the subject of this unrelated house popped into her mid, she would say to herself, “No, no, no. There is nothing to fear. The perfect tenants now appear and rent this house.” Though months of affirmations had rendered no results, withing three days of her use of denial, the house was rented!

A worried mother wrote, “I cannot understand it. For months I have been using affirmations for my daughter and her family, and things have only gotten worse. She has been mentally ill, her psychiatric treatments seem unavailing. Her husband’s job is threatened. The children have all been sick. Recently, a fire occurred in the house. There had been constant confusion and irritation. Why haven’t affirmations helped the situation?”

When this woman learned of the healing power of denial, she realized why. Affirmations make firm. To say affirmations in the midst of inharmony is to “make firm” or say “yes” to the false beliefs that caused that inharmony– THIS ONLY INVITES MORE CONFUSION INTO THE SITUATION! This lady proved it.

As she immediately began to say, “No, no, no” to the troubled appearances, it was like a healing balm that began clearing out the fear, inharmony, confusion. The daughter regained her emotional balance. The son-in-law was led to a better job. The children’s health improved. The insurance company made a settlement on the fire in the home, that made it possible to redecorate the entire house–a desire of long standing fulfilled. Peace gradually came into this family group, after one interested person began to say “no” to the previous difficulties.

You will enjoy using often the “NO” power of the mind to clear out fear, anxiety and confusion– and to open the way for vast improvement in all phases of life.

For this purpose declare often:

“No, no, no! My good cannot be withheld from me. My good cannot be taken from me. By saying ‘No’ to less than the best in life, all blocks to my good are now cleared away. Vast improvement comes quickly in every phase of my life– thanks to the ‘No’ power of the mind.”

I always ask myself the hard questions when deciding what no longer serves me. When I say the hard questions, this means that I go deep within and allow my inner wisdom to guide me.  I like to share these questions with you and I trust that they can help you to decide:

1.)  What in my life has brought me continuous joy?

2.) What in my life has weighed me down?

3.) What in my life that I am clinging to out of familiarity?

4.) Are there any fears surrounding my decision to let go. If so, what?

I am sure you can add to the list. Really get down deep and ask, then take appropriate action with patience.

In my own life, I have had to let people go that were not for my highest good. As I grew in consciousness (mindset), I realized that while these people served me at one point in my life; that now  I’ve  outgrown them. In some instances, it was a challenge to let go because I would have to start from scratch in attracting new friends. As a result the letting go was worth it and I know finding myself healthier and happier. I now have a quality of people in my circle that push me to grow, hold me accountable for my actions and encourage me to be in integrity in all that I do. What blessings!

Letting go for you may not be people, it could be a job, a home, or material things. The Vacuum law of the Universe is there for you all the time. Nature abhors a vacuum and when those things are released, the Universe swoops in and replaces them with better. So any apprehensions you may have you can let go of….literally!

Knowing when to let go can be fun or hard; your choice yet either way at some point it must be done. The results will amaze you!

When deciding on what one wants in life whether it be in the area of health, wealth, happiness or creative self-expression; one must be clear on how it is to be achieved. Many take the route of going to seminars, reading all the motivational materials they can find and/or creating new habits. All this sounds great, yet to achieve these goals it must be done in an orderly fashion.

Most of us seem to be doing everything; it was programmed from day one that we must do, do, do in order to have what you desire. This left most of us more exhausted than ever. It seemed like most of us would never reach our goals and for others, they just gave up all together.

I learned of a formula that would really do the trick in making it easy to meet goals. It’s called, be, do and have. I know most of you will bristle at the fact of the term ‘being’ first. “Aren’t we suppose to be doing to get here from there”, you asks. If  it were that easy, most of us would have been there long ago…

For example, if you want to develop optimal health, you would have to be healthy first. What does this entail? By having it your mind of great health and well-being, changing your thinking in order to change your health status, then the doing comes in by changing your eating habits to healthier, exercising and being around supportive people, THEN you will have the optimal health you desire.

Another example that comes to mind is relationships which seems to be on lots of peoples’ mind these days. It was believed that we must find the right person; yet it did not bring success, only frustration. You must BE the right person in order to attract the right person. Ok, how? Write down the qualities you desire in a mate, get clear and don’t outline (telling the Universe what to do).  By DOING, you develop those qualities in yourselves to attract that mate (the Law of Attraction always works whether it is believed or not); then you will HAVE the right person.

How long will this  BE~DO~HAVE formula take? It depends on you and how clear you are about how you want your life to turn out. Remember, it’s the being within your mind that causes the doing, then the having. Pretty simple, huh?

“As long as your going to be thinking anyway, think big.”
~Donald Trump~

You hear it all the time in personal development seminars; sales meetings at work and even in church…THINK BIG!

Hmm….that all sounds great but HOW does one do that? Is it a matter of thinking about obtaining the biggest toys, more and more money or expanding your personal and professional horizons? Depends.  Depends on what YOU as an individual want in life.

Sure materialistically speaking lots of us want the amazing and wonderful things we see advertised in the media or what our friends and colleagues have. Others want come out of the a shell and expand ourselves, seeing a bigger picture in the world by traveling, doing more to educate ourselves and improve the quality of their lives.  Once you’ve narrowed it down to what it is that you want, then you must take appropriate action.

I myself, like to take thinking big as eating a sandwich one bite at a time. This way, I can savor each moment as I attract what it is that I want. Stretching it as I’d like to call it.  There are others who just go for it, plunging into the pool of life ready to swim for it. Then there are those who seem to want to think big, yet still hold on to those things that keep them stuck; in their comfort zones.

It takes guts to be able to really see a bigger picture for ourselves despite criticisms, old thoughts or just wanting to remain ‘comfortable’. One must ask themselves the hard questions such as:

1.) What have I go to lose if I thought big?

2.) Would it hurt anyone if I did?

3.) What would I learn from this?

4.)  What would I have to give up in order to gain?

These and more questions that happened to come up need to addressed before one  can truly take the action. Talking about thinking big won’t get it, its setting a commitment,being truly passionate about it and yes, being BOLD.

For example, I have become a viewer of the World Cup 2010. Before this, American Football was my game, hands down. Now I have found another type of ‘futbol’ in which is played overseas and boy is it taken seriously! Since I have been watching the games, I find it fun  as well as refreshing. For one, I praised myself for stretching and finding new ways and means of great entertainment. To some, this particular game is considered good ole soccer.  Yet, to have countries far and wide come together every 4 years to play this game is just so cool. I trust to see it in another 4 years.

It doesn’t have to be hard to start thinking big! Of course, one may shake it their boots or have the so-called ‘dark shadow’ of fears loom over them but what is the worse that can happened? You faint, sweat or just don’t do it at all!

Are YOU ready to step out and have the courage think big? Are you ready for the life you’ve always dreamed of?

Are you really?

Attract Wealth – That Which Is Chased Flees

Everybody in the paper chase has the wrong idea. When you chase something it takes flight.

Many run after wealth in a mad dash. Few attract it. The faster you run toward wealth the fleeter of foot it becomes. Don’t scare away wealth. Attract wealth to you.
You Are A Magnet

Your thoughts, feelings, and actions attract or repel whatever you consistently fix your attention on. You were blessed with a conscious mind to choose your thoughts. These thoughts generate feelings, which lead to actions. Your actions determine your results.

Sounds simple but it’s a challenge to put into practice. Humans are reactive creatures. They feel the need to work in order to receive. Few think before acting. They habitually move into hurried action which brings negative results since fear is a destructive emotion. Go-getters often have no idea where they’re going. This uncertainly breeds a fearful mind. You can’t attract wealth with a fearful mind.
Do You Attract Or Repel?

Positive emotions attract. Negative emotions repel. Everything in the Universe is a form of energy which responds to these emotions.

Focus on money. If thinking about money generates negative emotions in your mind you repel money. If you feel great when thinking about money you attract it.

Most people have a bad relationship with money. This is why few attract wealth. Some people gain loads of money by chasing it but they were never wealthy. They usually find their way to an early grave. Competitive minds work so hard to chase down what would have readily come to them if they had an attractive mindset.
No Matter How It Appears To Be It’s All Energy

Attract wealth by thinking about it as a form of energy. The value of this energy is determined by whatever ideas you choose to think about it. Feel great about wealth and you’ll attract it. You’ll feel positive when you release false beliefs concerning wealth.

Find a quiet room and ask yourself how you feel about wealth. Be honest. Most have a lot of deeply rooted stuff – negative beliefs – about wealth. Observe, embrace, and release any negative emotion which arises.

Write the limiting beliefs on a piece of paper and burn it. Release them into the Universe. Making negative ideas concrete and letting them go is a powerful practice.

Once you are clear of negative ideas concerning wealth you can can attract wealth with less effort.

Every year, home centers and decorating stores continue to grow and expand. People are as interested as they ever were in their homes. Now more than any time, people understand how important our environments are – from our homes to home offices and our work spaces.

Today we are more attuned to the way our spaces affect our effectiveness and ability to work, play and live more happily and efficiently – and prosperously. There is a demand for feng shui and the people who practice it judging by all the calls and email I receive inquiring about consultants and how to locate a qualified consultant. There is an opportunity to capitalize on this awareness, too.

If you’ve thought about working as a feng shui consultant, what’s holding you back? The main difference between consultants who make money and those who don’t is usually two things: certification and application.

Those consultants who are certified and gone through training will do much better because they are more skilled, and usually, better at relaying feng shui concepts to their customers. The consultants who apply themselves are also the ones most likely to be successful at this business – or any business for that matter. They’ll join business clubs, network with complimentary services such as architects, pool companies, interior designers and they’ll put up a website. And, they’ll come up with a way to differentiate themselves.

Here’s the 10 truths about working as a feng shui consultant.

1. It’s not important that you speak Chinese or know Chinese culture.

What’s important is that you know feng shui. Having a few feng shui terms in your working lexicon is a help, but not necessary. In fact, the less you speak in feng shui jargon, the more your clients will appreciate you. If you like, though, it’s easy to learn about Chinese culture by visiting museums and Chinese cultural exhibits. Even a local Chinatown or Buddhist temple can be a way to learn more about Asian cultures.

2. Practical, down-to-earth people are the most sought-after consultants.

Feng shui has been very popular for the past twenty years. One of the top complaints about consultants, though, is that they can appear too “airy fairy.” The more practical and down-to-earth you are, the more clients you’ll have and the more repeat business you’ll get. People appreciate it when you speak plainly and simply, without a lot of feng shui terms and New Age mysticism. If that’s how you prefer to practice feng shui, though, you’ll probably find those kinds of clients who appreciate that kind of style will be drawn to you.

3. Feng shui consultants are in demand right now.
It’s true. Consultants are in demand across the country. I live in South Texas and I have had calls from all over the state of Texas with offers of consultant jobs. Of course, some areas, like California, the East Coast, and Hawaii probably have the highest demand, but consultants are also sought after in Las Vegas, large metropolitan areas such as Miami, Houston, and Denver. Even in the very remote area where I live, I am often amazed at the people who find me and want a feng shui consultation. My largest and longest client resulted in a phone call from a hospital and school construction firm based in Corpus Christi, Texas!

4. Caring, helpful people make the best consultants.
I’ve found that most good feng shui consultants are those who are sensitive, caring people. It’s important that you want to help others because as a consultant you’ll often be called to come to someone’s house when they have a problem. You’ll receive calls because someone is ill, they are losing money, or their marriage is in trouble. Not always, though. Sometimes you get called because the homeowner wants things in his or her home to be right and for life to be even better. Most of the time, though, you’re called because there’s a problem. That’s why it’s important that you are a caring person. The fact that you are drawn to feng shui is a good indicator of your sensitivity. Confidentiality is another critical factor. You’ll hear personal details that makes your confidence a must.

5. You can make good money as a feng shui consultant.

If you’re a certified feng shui consultant, you can easily ask for $250 an hour for an in-person consultation or about $500 for a two-hour consultation. If you just have two clients per week that adds up to $4000 per month.

Plus, you get the tax advantages of being in business, allowing you to write off mileage and any costs incurred getting to and from your appointments. You can also charge by the square foot of the space if you are involved in a large commercial project, for example. A fee of fifty cents per square foot would net you $2,000 on a 4,000 square foot office building assessment.

Want to earn an extra $500 a month? All it takes is one appointment for a two hour consultation. Want an extra $1000? Then add in one more consultation. It doesn’t take much business for the money to add up.

6. You have many opportunities in feng shui besides consulting work.

It’s true. You can work however you like – whether that’s online, as a consultant, or in a retail business. Maybe you want to become a published author – the need is there! If you have a Realtor’s license, you can pair your feng shui skill nicely with real estate! If you like to work online and be at home with your kids, you can take your business online and work as an online consultant doing telephone consultations. If you like organization, consider working as a professional organizer. Having a feng shui background means you can add on feng shui services with your organizational abilities. There’s as many opportunities as you can imagine!

7. Trained feng shui consultants make a lot more money than uncertified consultants.

Training gives you the credentials and the confidence. You can approach clients, confident in your skills and abilities. Furthermore, you can join organizations such as International Feng Shui Guild so your clients will have extra confidence in your abilities. When you don’t have training and certification, it’s hard to work up to the kind of money that helps you establish yourself as a serious professional.

8. People are looking for feng shui consultants all the time.

There is a demand for feng shui consultants and consultations. Every day people search for consultants and practitioners who can help them, who offer information on their websites, or even write online newsletters or e-zines, such as my Red Lotus Letter. Every single day I have new readers who sign up for my newsletter and who call my office inquiring about consultations. The business is out there and people are looking for consultants!

9. The work is always interesting and different.

There is a variety of work to be done in feng shui – from helping someone design a house with good feng shui to helping them place a pool or a fountain. You may have someone who has a sick child and they want you to help them “diagnose” their home or the child’s bedroom. Realtors may call you to ask you why a house hasn’t sold…there’s literally no end to what you will be asked about. And it’s always interesting. You’ll be working a detective, trying to uncover the feng shui mysteries of a space. This makes the job a never-ending supply of homes and situations that will challenge and interest you.

10. You get to help people as a feng shui consultant and set your own schedule.

Working as a feng consultant gives you certain freedoms – like when or where you want to work. This means you have flexibility and options that a standard 9 to 5 job doesn’t offer. You can set the hours you want to work so you can be at home with your children or using your career to supplement your retirement income. Consulting offers more flexibility than other standard jobs so you can pick and choose how and when you want to work!

Subliminal messaging is quite often mis-understood, but it shouldn’t be really – it is not all that mysterious, it actually works in a very simple way In this article we will give a brief overview of subliminal learning and explain how it can be used.

The word “subliminal” itself comes from the Latin words “sub” & “limen”, which literally translate as “below threshold”. All this means is that a subliminal message can be any piece of information which our minds receive below the threshold of our conscious perception.

In other words a subliminal message is anything we receive without knowing.

This can be in any form – from music to audio Probably the fastest way to explain subliminal messaging is by using our every day environment. We have a constant, automatic filter in our minds so that we only consciously process the information we need to deal with there and then.

When walking in the street we notice the traffic around us, when walking on the path we hardly take notice of cars passing just a few feet away. When we are talking to our friends we focus in on this – hearing nothing else… but if we then hear our name called by someone outside our group this information does get in.

Your mind has been filtering through their conversation all along, but only when you hear your name does your mind re-focus..

Can Learning Be Used To Help Me?

YES OF COURSE THEY CAN!

This isn’t just interesting pop psychology.Most commonly subliminals are used in the form of audio and can help you in life – help you to develop confidence, levels of self esteem, boost willpower, develop motivation – the possibilities are almost limitless.

Because we are capable of processing information on a subconscious level.

With subliminal messaging you will receive these positive messages over and over. They steadily will build in your subconscious mind and start making changes to your patterns of behavior, belief systems, and even long held limiting personality traits.

You might still be unsure (many people are before they try it for themselves), if so then you are in luck as http://www.subliminalmp3s.com?alid=18187 will let you download 3 FREE Subliminalmp3s albums as well as their mini course in subliminal programming.
