What Does Matter?

The only thing that matters…  – Neale Donald Walsch

what matters?

A lot of what we do on a daily basis may not matter much from an eternal perspective. Does career matter? Does the decision for our next car matter? Does making the right college choice really matter?

soul’s agenda

If we think that there’s much more to life and reality than meets the eye then the ‘agenda’ for our life must be a spiritual one. If we think that God created everything then our perspective has to be more than a material one. If we believe that we live forever then certainly our ‘soul’ must have a lot to say about our life on this planet!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM focused on my soul’s agenda!

How To Truly Be Free…

We are enslaved by anything we do not consciously see. We are freed by conscious perception.  – Vernon Howard

fool self

We fool ourselves. We’re not conscious of our true motives and feelings. Consequently we think we’re a certain way when we’re not. Here’s an example. We show up differently with different folks. We’re a certain way with family and a very different way with a wealthy business tycoon. We may be conscious of this difference but generally not aware of why we do it and while we’re doing it. In everyone’s life there are countless other examples of how we fool self and others.

freedom

As we become more conscious of what we feel deeply versus what we think and then what we actually do, the façade starts to fall. As the façade crumbles we can become free agents in this most amazing experience called Life!

Why Tomorrow Never Comes!

Tomorrow deceives. It never arrives…  – Namaste Now!

when…

When I’m an adult I’ll be so happy. When I can afford my sports car I won’t need anything else. When I have a life partner I’d want no more. When I have my dream job I would have arrived. When I’ve paid off my debts I’ll be done. When I have $5M I’d be stress free. Really? Seriously? Who are we kidding?

now

Tomorrow deceives in another way. When it does arrive it’s still ‘now’. There’s no other experience of time, ever. It’s always now. Which means we have no choice but to make the most of NOW. Let’s be more awake to it…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM.

What Is Most Reliable?

Yesterday is a canceled check; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have-so spend it wisely.  – Kay Lyons

now

This message should be a mantra!

Now is all we have.

Now is all we have.

Now is all we have.

seize it

The total number of breaths we’ll breathe are limited. One day we’ll cease to exist on this planet. Our mortal raiment will disperse back into nature. Our essence will move on but we must make the most of the current moment. Let’s seize it!!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM cashing in on NOW!

Why Our Mental Orientation Matters…

Tell the story you want to live and you will eventually live it.Abraham

problem orientation

We all need to solve problems. But we can’t let problems own us. We shouldn’t so live in our problems that they become our defining mind set. In that shell we continuously analyze a problem and how to solve it. This may not help because we constantly exude ‘problem’ vibrations that become increasingly real for us.

dream it

Instead let’s dream. Let’s become good at spinning a tale that we enjoy now because that’s what will be ‘realized’ in our lives later. What about action? Action must be taken based on what the Universe presents to us. If we won’t act we’ll delay the realization of the story we tell ourselves…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM the author of my own life story!

How To Have a ‘Significant’ Life!

The more significance you give the moment, the more the moment has the opportunity to be significant.  – Meditation Society of Australia

moments

Life is made up of moments. Each breath is precious. We know this; it’s not rocket science. Then why do we fritter away precious moments?

significance

First we must decide on the highest use for the time at our disposal. Time is the most precious commodity. Ask any dying person. We are dying too, except for most of us the process is so slow that we end up not valuing the time we do have. Once we know how to best use our time we may have a shot at bathing each moment with the significance it deserves…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM fully awake to each moment!
