monday morning musing: not getting what you want

MUSE UPON THIS:
 

"Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck."

~ His Holiness the Dalai Lama

What if the Universe has a bigger plan than you can even conceive of?  And not getting what you want is a part of that plan...

(Fabulous words from one of my favorite teachers.  It is one of his "18 Rules of LIving" that he released at the turn of the new millenium.  See all of them in today's Feel Good Moment.)

monday morning musing: you really can

MUSE UPON THIS:

You really can...

Nothing inspires me more than stories of people who have overcome amazing odds to succeed.  The Feel Good Moment for this week is one such story.  It helps remind me that, yes, I can do "it" -- whatever "it" is.  I can make changes in my life.  I can heal myself.  I can love freely.  I can forgive the unforgiveable.  I can create miracles.  I can live my dreams.  Oh, and you can, too!

monday morning feel good moment

At 8 minutes, it is a long Feel Good Moment.  
Do yourself a huge favor and at least watch the first 3 minutes.  
It will completely change your day.  (And, you're welcome! :-) )

monday morning musing: letting go of what you are...

 

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S

“When I let go of what I am,
I become what I might be.”
~ Lao Tzu

Do you see yourself as a hard worker?  Someone who is lazy?  An over-eater? An under-achiever?  A perfectionist?  Strong-willed?  Weak-willed?  We all have labels for ourselves -- sometimes they are buried quite deep!  All of these labels limit us, keep us defined in a way that doesn’t allow us to move forward in life.  If you need to label yourself, label yourself as compassionate, loving, flexible, and ready for what life is bringing next!

Feel Good Moment

What fabulous excitement and happiness!  May you feel the same happiness today...

feel good moment: the lost generation

This is amazing!  You must listen to the very end...and feel the hope and inspiration.

 

feel good moment: be your own hero

Joseph Campbell was an amazing man who helped people realize their higher potential.  Here is a trailer for a movie that was done about him.  The trailer is amazing -- I felt so ready to push through a fear simply by watching!  I can't wait to see the movie!  (It has not yet been released in DVD -- I have it saved on my Netflix list already!)

monday morning muisng AND feel good moment: YES, you can!

 

 

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S

 Yes, you can
2012 will be the most amazing year of your life so far!

Todays' musing and feel good moment are one and the same.  Nick has had a previous showing as a Feel Good Moment because he is so amazing.  Let his story propel you into 2012 with excitement, expectation, and a feeling that you CAN do what you want to do. 

For the past four weeks I have been guiding you on a journey to a fabulous new year.  I have challenged your beliefs around not having enough time to do what you want, not feeling like you in control of changing that which needs changing in your life.  I have reminded you to dream and had you choose one thing that you want to be sure is different one year from today.  Are you feeling now like you could make a change?  That you really can do something different in 2012?  Then, it is time to take some action!

Fifth Assignment:

• Write down what you want in the positive.  (In other words, not: "I don't want to be fat." Instead: "I want to be fit and vibrant."  Not: "I don't want to be in debt." Instead: "I want to be financially free.")
• Write it down in your calendar at the beginning of each month. (Use the calendar I created – My Inspirational Year – to have my support all year round!)
• Now, is it something that takes a multitude of action steps (such as find a new job)?  Or is it one step (such as exercise daily)?  If it takes a multitude, write down your next three action steps.  If it is one, write down that one step.
• Finally, when will you do it?  Ummm...what about now?  It doesn’t matter if your one action step takes a few moments or a day, doing one thing within the first 24 hours of setting an intention is a powerful step toward moving toward accomplishing your goals.  Now, be sure to set aside a regular time each day/week/month (whatever is necessary) to keep going!  (Here are some thoughts I wrote awhile ago on finding time to expand whatever it is you want to expand!)

 

Here are two ways you can join me to make 2012 fabulous:

• New Year's Resolutions From the Heart: The 40-min podcast with workbook is now available to inspire you on New Year's!  Let me guide you through the three steps to creating an amazing 2012 for yourself! More info and to register. (PLUS, you can add the 9 podcasts of yoga, breathing and visualizations for each of the three steps with two bonus tracks!)
  
• My Inspirational Year:  Ready for the most inspirational year of your life?  Ready to really change what you want and are ready to change?  This program includes a journal in planner format, access to a members-only website, and a monthly enewsletter.  In addition, each month you receive podcasts with meditations, visualizations and yoga sessions, ebooks, and more to help propel you into your new life.  More information and to order: www.AnInspirationalYear.com.

monday morning musing: one year from today

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S

 

What do you want to be able to say about your life on December 19, 2012
that you cannot say now?

Now that you have began to dream about your life and what you really want, what would you like to create for 2012 to get you closer to your Big Dream?  Just so we get this straight, I don't care if you think it is possible or you are capable of it, that comes later.  For now, set your intentions for the year based on what you really want for your life; let the excitement of your Big Dream get you excited about your intentions.  “We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aid, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn.” (Henry David Thoreau)  Let your Big Dream be the dawn; start expecting it!

Fourth Assignment: (Although you probably figured this one out! :-) )  What do you want to be able to say about your life?  Is there something you want to have?  A way you want to be?  Think about it and write it down...Did you know:  You are 200% more likely to achieve a goal if you write it down.  You are 400% more likely to achieve a goal if you tell someone.  SO, I would like to support you in achieving this goal!  Add to the comments on the blog post what it is that you want to have by 12/19/12 between now and next Sunday.  I will randomly pick someone from the comments to receive my Goal Setting From the Heart E-Course.  Come on...you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

• New Year's Resolutions From the Heart: The 40-min podcast with workbook is now available to inspire you on New Year's! More info and to register.

monday morning musing: it is only you

 

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S

It is only you.

It is only you...

• Who can make changes in your life.
• Who can help you feel good.
• Who can let your light shine.
• Who can release all that is holding you back.
• Who can truly truly live your Extraordinary Life.

Are you ready?  Ready to take control?  Ready to no longer use "I don't have time" as an excuse?  Ready to take the reigns of your life?  I invite you to continue exploring the possibilities for 2012 with me as we begin our Great New Year's Day Countdown!  Let me inspire you to make 2012 amazing!

Second Assignment:  What parts of your life feel out of your control?  (By the way, feeling out of control sounds like, "If only...then I would..."  So, "If only my husband wouldn't...then I would be happy."  "If only my job wasn't so...then I would be relaxed."  When you say "If only..." you feel out of control.)  What would it feel like to have those areas in your control?  What would it look like?

Here are three ways you can join me to make 2012 fabulous:

• New Year's Resolutions From the Heart:  Join me on Friday, December 16, 11:30-12:30 for a teleclass (done over the phone) on the three steps for creating resolutions from a deeper, heart-centered place.  (Call is recorded so join even if you cannot make it!) More info and to register.

This week is a long one: 6:55.  It is so powerful!  It was the perfect kickoff to the December countdown to New Year's Day!  Watch it, listen very carefully, then keep reading the musings.  Let me inspire you to do what they talk about in the video.

This one simply felt good to watch!

 

monday morning musing: you need to let go

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S

"'How does one become a butterfly?' she asked pensively.
'You must want to fly so much that you are willing
to give up being a caterpillar.'"
~ Trina Paulus

So, are you ready?  Are you ready to stop playing small?  To move into a life that is truly one of your making?  The one you really want?  While taking a step to becoming a butterfly might be scary, the thought of your life being exactly how it is now five years from today can be even scarier.  Let the excitement fo the butterfly draw you forward...

So, we are getting closer to my favorite time of year -- New Years!  Such a natural time to set new intentions and goals for your life.  Are you ready to play with me this year?  I will be starting the prep for a powerful new years soon...stay tuned!

So, what are you hearing "I can't" around that you are ready to change?
