What Comes First?

Leave a comment

If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place. – Eckhart Tolle

me first

What we face in life is mostly our own making. We invite experiences into our lives based on our emotional vibrations and what we need most for our growth. If we want to ‘fix’ something it’s not the situation or other people, it’s us we need to focus on…

seek first…

What if we seek that which God seeks for everyone? This way we not only ‘fix’ self but we do so while being aligned with what divinity seeks for all of us. This results in the highest happiness for us and those around us. It’s literally a universal win-win situation!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM aligned with God’s will!

What’s Our Life Purpose?

Leave a comment

The sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.  – Carl Jung

life purpose?

When we’re floundering in life and don’t quite know where we’re headed, what we’re really looking to find is our life purpose. We do have a fairly specific life purpose and can work towards discovering it if we so choose. However we also have a very basic life purpose…

bring joy

Our purpose is to bring joy to others. We may do this as spouses, as kids, as parents and as friends. We can also do so as citizens of this planet. If we simply hold this purpose high in our daily consciousness, we’re guaranteed a supremely happy life. What else is there?

How Action Opens Up Possibilities…

Leave a comment

The possibilities are numerous once we decide to act and not react. – George Bernard Shaw

decisions & action

When we decide to do something we’ve decided to move forward. We’ve resolved that we can’t stay stuck and that to move is to truly live! What is change except the movement of things, ideas and time itself? We’ve decided to embrace change when we act!

action

3rd Basic Technique in Analyzing Worry: Once a decision is reached, act!!

As we act and start moving, innumerable possibilities begin to open up to us. It’s like plunging a hand into a giant piggy bank and grabbing what we can. The universe is abundant and we’re poor only if we don’t jump in!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM going to act!

Why We Must Act!

Leave a comment

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. – Dale Carnegie

procrastinating into negativity

When we procrastinate what we’re really doing is gathering more reasons to explain why we suck or why our life’s not going anywhere! We’re allowing ourselves to sink into a dark place. We must become aware of what we’re thinking and what we’re doing!

action builds courage

The rest of our life begins today! What would we do if we were getting a brand new opportunity? We are! Let’s take that first step and resolve to take another small one tomorrow… That’ll do it! We’ll build confidence and feel accomplished. As we feel better we’ll be happier! Now was that our goal to begin with?

Daily Affirmation: Today I ACT!

How To Love Anyone…

Leave a comment

Human things must be known in order to be loved, but divine things must be loved in order to be known.  – The Urantia Papers

know first, then love

To know someone is to love them. The more we know of them, what shaped them, their worries and desires, the more we can eventually love them.

love first, then know

Works the other way around with God. We must first believe that God exists, that’s faith. As we acknowledge her existence, we can begin to contemplate her attributes, her omnipresence and omnipotence for example. As we recognize her handiwork around us and in others we slowly get to know God and she increasingly reveals herself…

How To Banish Worries (series)

Leave a comment

If you can’t sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It’s the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep. – Dale Carnegie

worry

Let’s watch self and our tendency to manufacture thoughts about what can go wrong. We misuse our creativity when we dwell on the negative. Did we know that our brain is wired for positivity and optimism? Let’s support our own biology and be happier!

life principles

2nd Basic Technique in Analyzing Worry: Weigh all the facts — then come to a decision.

Decisions are the life-blood of this spiritual universe. Let’s make a decision and allow the universe to support us in our creative endeavors. That’s why we’re here on this planet, to do stuff, to actualize, to create!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM a master decision maker!
