Musings On Manifesting with MuseLaura

A Thought: Play to Win

I had an interesting insight yesterday as we were playing cards.  We have fun psyching each other out with, "I feel hot -- I am going to win!"  "Oooo, I have the BEST cards.  There is no way you can beat me."  etc.   We giggle and tease and have fun.  Well, yesterday, I noticed she was out-psyching me.  I was nervous and began playing to minimize my points for when she won.  I was no longer playing to win, but playing to minimize damage. 

How often do you do that, especially in your fear area?  You aren't playing all out with the assumption of triumph, you are holding back, hoping to minimize the damage.

Play to win.  Play to succeed.  Play so you can live up to your fullest capacity.  That's how to live your Extraordinary Life!

Tell God Your Plans!

“God laughs hardest when you tell Him your plans.”

I have heard that quote so many times and never really understood it. What does that mean? God laughs when you get excited about something? Really? If you don’t believe in God and just see the Universe as responding to the thoughts you put out there, the quote still doesn’t make sense! I had to find out who gave us that toxic little gem – John Lennon. Now, with all due respect to all the Beetles fans out there, I tend to look to higher sources for my Truths, especially if the idea is going to affect my dreams.

A Thought: Blame vs. Responsibility

We need to take responsibility for all in our life. It is not blame. Blame involves shame and negativity and responsibility indicates spiritual maturity. With responsibility, you can look at your situation and say, “Hmmm…I created this situation. What am I suppose to learn from it? What is the belief behind it? What is the fear? How can I feel love here?” With blame all we feel is judgment and shame. With judgment we further block the flow of energy.  When we take responsiblity, we move forward stronger and wiser.  Which do you want to choose?

A Thought: Change is Exciting

These Things Will Change {49/365}
Originally uploaded by They.Call.Me.Doodlebug.

Why haven’t you made changes in your life? Scary isn’t it? Or maybe you feel you aren’t in control of your life? What if I had a new perspective on making changes and the fear around it...what if change could be exciting, exhilarating even? Would that be exciting for you? You see, I believe unconscious change is scary, but conscious change, with the express purpose of stepping into the life that represents who you really are, is thrilling. Plus, when you make changes from a deeper place, a place of inspiration because you know the changes will take you into more satisfaction, joy, and contentment in your life, the steps will be exciting.
