It is you who are choosing, in any moment, to be happy or choosing to be sad, or choosing to be angry, or forgiving, or enlightened, or whatever. You are choosing. – Neale Donald Walsch

choice

If we assert control over self we’ll know that our mood is up to us. We choose, consciously or otherwise, it’s us and no one else…

affirmations

Today I AM choosing to be filled with joy. I AM focused on what’s good in my life. I AM visualizing what I’d love to see in my life.

I was told to challenge every spiritual teacher, every world leader to utter the one sentence that no religion, no political party, and no nation on the face of the earth will dare utter: ‘Ours is not a better way, ours is merely another way. – Neale Donald Walsch

truth

What’s the Truth? Which one is the right path? Why do we fight and kill each other?

affirmations

Today I AM led by Spirit. I seek Truth in all events and in every person I meet.

Be happy in anticipation of what’s coming. – Abraham

the future

If we have to think about the future then let’s be happy about all the great things that are headed our way. Otherwise let’s stay fully present in the current eternal moment.

affirmations

Today I AM happy about what’s coming into my life. I can’t wait to enjoy it all. Life is good now and it’s only getting better!

True mastery can be gained by letting things go their own way. – Lao-tse

shine!

Lao-tse, the father of Tao, is pointing to how our lack of reaction to events can help us master them! There are 2 essential ways to react to any event. One is to attach to an event via your thoughts (and emotions), get drawn in and in turn possibly regret our reaction later.

The other is to view the event as an observer, without identifying our personality and history with the event. In this situation we’re observing without manufacturing thoughts about the situation. We’re just being, just listening, just flowing with what’s going on.

That in turn allows us to be the master of that event. We control our reaction to any situation, which means that we control our own happiness! As we do this with every event in life we begin to flow with life, a happy unperturbed camper at all times!

affirmations

Today I AM the master. I don’t attach to events, I just observe them. I can handle any situation. I AM a child of God. All is well!

True masters are those who have chosen to make a life, rather than a living.  – Neale Donald Walsch

master

On what topic do we spend most of our thoughts, daily? The whole idea of material progress was to effect more leisure time so that we could do things and think about things that really matter.

Why hasn’t that happened for most of us? How does one make a life out of all that we do?

• What’s truly most important to us?
• How much are we being rather than doing?

affirmations

Today I AM ruminating on what’s real and lasting. I AM a child of God. I matter and I AM enough. Which is why I use time maturely. I AM a master of my own life.
