The Affirmative Thought below titled Peace and Balance was my

advice to Ann this morning as she works her way through some

major issues on the job, trying to find some resolution to a difficult

work environment. If your life is anything but peaceful, then you

may need to adopt the attitude of peace and balance;  bringing

the peace to your life proactively. It takes a bit of mind control

wrapped in a belief that you can affect  the change you desire.

That is t0 inspire the change you desire. 

 

        PEACE AND BALANCE

Today seek peace and balance –

allowing yourself to set the

pace and approach each issue

with a solution in mind – knowing

all is well and as it should be –

all things are in their proper place.

 

Today seek peace and balance –

allowing your mind to turn- off

the “what if’s”, the “look out for”,

the “why this”, and replace it

with a serenity of knowing

you are on the perfect path –

moving in the right direction –

clear on your final destination.

 

Today seek peace and balance –

as you reconnect with your

divine support knowing this team –

God’s Team – is always with you

preparing the way.

                THE  SONG OF YOUR HEART

 

Listen to the song of your heart –

            play through your every breath –

your every movement with its

            intoxicating melody of joy and

wonder – its harmony composed

            of all the perfection of your soul’s

desire for authentic life.

 

Listen to the song of your heart –

            hum it, sing it, dance to it, rejoice

with it like a dervish in mid ecstasy –

            pound it out with your hands and

feet until the beat and rhythm

            resonates and vibrates you

with the thrill of living –

            with the God within you.

 

Listen to the song of your heart –

            don’t  be shy,  instead let it

play loudly and boldly through you –

            let it entertain all existence

with its magnificence.

If you are like me,  you are constantly checking

off your mental to-do list and assessing your

progress. But how often do you really take a

moment for self-recognition, reflecting on all

you have accomplished and the mountain

you have already scaled - pausing to look around 

and enjoy the view from this new vantage point.

 

As I mentioned in earlier posts, from time to time

I rummage through the hundreds of Affirmative

Thoughts I have not had an opportunity to publish

and pick one at random.   I randomly picked

the Affirmative Thought below titled Enjoy The View, 

which  reminds us all of the importance of taking

yourself aside, patting your own back and saying

"great job kidd0" for all you do for you, those 

you love, and the world.

 

ENJOY THE VIEW  

 

Today recognize yourself – all you are

and all you do – know you have

accomplished wonders –

scaled mountains through rough terrain

to reach this summit of your life.

Take account and enjoy the view.

 

Today confirm and affirm you are

on the right path – making the right

decisions to move towards your dreams –

ready, willing, and able to continue

your success.

 

Today be proud of who you are

and who you have become – loving,

kind, purposeful, and authentic –

strong and powerful living with

clarity and faith – creating your

greater good.

 

Today. say thank you to yourself!

 

WITH LOVE, G.

There are times when you need to take life by the horns and make

it work for you, to do your bidding, and not passively wait or hope

it all works out. I am a believer in meditating, affirming, envisioning,

and praying but then getting up and doing my part to make it 

happen. This could all stem from my early experience  facilitating

assertiveness training workshops, but part of any  successful change,

transition, or implementation is taking control - setting the agenda

and achieving what needs to be achieved.

 

I wrote the Affirmative Thought  below for Ann this morning who is

dealing with issues at work as she prepares to take that leap of faith

towards her dream. No matter what we do it comes to a time when

we need to take the lead in our own lives. I hope this note helps us all

when we should dust ourselves off, wrap up our reflection and

ensure the world bends our way.

  

          MAKE THE WORLD BEND

 

Today make the world bend to your rules,

your preferences, your expectations

as you clearly define your intentions and

unswayed by the opinions of others  - go

on to make these intentions a reality.

 

Today make the world bend to your will –

ensuring you have the time and resources

needed to be totally successful and capable

of achieving your desired results,

following your timetable, and do it all

with ease and the lack of stress.

 

Today make the world bend to your mind,

to your imagination, to your vision as you

turn chaos and confusion into a vehicle

for renewal, rebirth, and achievement.

 

Today take control!

Life is always so much easier when you are living your life

on purpose.  The phrase "on purpose" takes me back to

my childhood growing up in Philadelphia when kids could

play freely on the streets, and often when you did something 

considered mean or annoying the offended would yell out -

"you did that on purpose." I am adapting the phrase  in this

context to refer to living a purposeful authentic life - living

your purpose - on purpose and with purpose. That is, living

the life  that will fulfill your spiritual nature -  your divine

calling -  and doing it intentionally. This purposeful

existence is often referred to as following "your dream."

It took me over three years to recognize, accept, and actually 

go on to live my purpose.  Honestly, it was not always pleasant

as my divine self or soul literally pushed me towards the cliff

so I would finally take the leap of faith. It was the greatest gift

I have ever given myself.

 

Ann is struggling with her purpose, and in her anguish I get to

revisit my transition. I wrote this note below titled Your Dream

for her,  to hopefully ease her way towards that cliff. May it assist

all those who are preparing to take the leap.

            

              YOUR DREAM

 

Strive to envision your dream

and live it existing high above

the fray of daily existence –

let go to God the anxieties

and turmoil of this fight below –

replacing them with a sense

of pure peace knowing you

have found the way.

 

Strive to envision your dream

and trust that beneath the dust

of the mayhem on the road

you now travel,  it leads by design

to a place of pure unfolding –

your dream realized –

your heaven on earth.

 

Strive to envision your dream

living it now – choosing it now –

refusing to wait or cooperate

with what appears to be

realistic, sensible, or secure –

and with all your heart

and a running start – leap!

Ok, Ann is back at work and her mini vacation has worn off. It is

a busy period in her field and the pressure is on. Her team has

dropped a few balls, the boss is being a pain, and she is struggling

with remembering why she is doing this anyway.  Sound familiar? 

For many of us who have worked under the intense pressure of

our current work-scape with too few resources, tremendous

expectations, and a ever quickening pace this is the norm. How

we learn to live with this pressure will determine the quality of

our lives and our overall ability to prosper. Here is an Affirmative

Thought I wrote for Ann this  morning to provide her with some

spiritual insight into how to approach this level of intensity.

 

 

PATIENCE, POISE, AND PASSION

 

Today approach your life with patience

allowing the world to be as it will be –

accepting that learning is often

necessary before the desired result

is obtained and skills mastered.

 

Today approach your life with poise

remaining balanced and in control

even when you feel angry or

frustrated – knowing that within

every issue there is the answer.

 

Today approach your life with passion

fully engaged in the mission at hand

and the work to be handled –

enjoy the action and the interaction

with others and the universe.

 

Today approach your life with

patience, poise, and passion!

"Do not go gently into that good night," the poet Dylan

Thomas exclaimed in his poem of the same name, - "rage, rage,

against the dying of the light."  There are times that I read the

messages God has provided me and I feel they beseech me to

live with more vigor - to reach beyond my fears and grasp what

is waiting for me to arrive. Let us all not live too gently, let us

take the tools that God has provided and reshape our existence  

for ourselves and all humankind. Here is an Affirmative 

Thought to cheer us on. 

     REACH OUT AND GRASP

 

Today reach out and grasp the life

you want to live – form it –

create it - breathe life into it

boldly stepping out and seizing it –

knowing you have the power

to transform all you now experience

into your perfect life.

 

Today reach out and grasp the

experience you want to live –

refusing to accept less when you

deserve more – ensuring your

only opportunity for life is lived

fully – thriving in creating –

sensing the life of your wildest

imagination – capturing your joy.

 

Today reach out and grasp the life

you have envisioned living –

refusing to allow your own thoughts

or the will of others to stand

in your way – instead spread

your glorious wings and fly!

DEFLATING FEAR - AFFIRMATIVE THOUGHT - DAILY POST ON ENLIGHTENMENT

As I begin writing Chapter Twelve of Finding God On The Train

titled - Overcoming Fear and Doubt Through Belief -  I find

myself back into  the very uncomfortable topic of fear. Much

of what I believe is successful mind control entails managing

our fears.  As  I delve into my meditation guidance, I believe

the message being conveyed is that we are victims of our own

operant conditioning, usually with our egos mixed somewhere

in the fear creation process. If fear is simply a negative

thought that we have allowed to take form,  as I suggest in the

Affirmative Thought below, rather than avoid the subject we

all need to learn how to rectify the situation and eliminate fear

in our lives. Let's all vow to stop feeding our fears today.

 

                  DEFLATING FEARS 

 

Today let us realize that fear is simply

a negative thought allowed to take form

and be charged with strong emotion

until it becomes like a force that

we no longer recognize but feel

compelled to accept as truth.

 

Today let us realize our fears are not

based in reality and our attention

to them in the end is our choice –

our choice to accept and give life

to what we know within is

ungrounded and unfounded but

we continue to feed it through

its cage until it overtakes us and

blocks our right to happiness and

a fully functioning life.

 

Today let us pull our fears out into

the light of day – work to understand

their origin and through our strength

of will and with God’s assistance

deflate them forever.

As I explore the realm of our internal mind control I realize it

is imperative that we remain diligent in feeding ourselves powerful

counter messages. We, you, me, us are all fully capable of making

enormous contributions in our lives and in the world. The only

thing that truly stands in our way is the eroding of our own trust

in ourselves,  others, and God perpetuated by our own negative

thought patterns. Given this is Monday I offer the Affirmative

Thought below titled Trust to start our week off in a positive

direction. 

 

                            TRUST

 

Today trust in the universe to deliver

  what you need to succeed –

to flourish – to obtain success in

your current endeavors as you reach

  out to expand the possibilities and

potential for you and those you love.

 

Today trust in yourself to achieve

  what at times seems unfathomable

and beyond reach – knowing you

are fully prepared to surmount the

  obstacles and flourish in finding

creative solutions – grasping a new

  way to view tasks at hand

and light the way.

 

Today trust in others to step up

  to the plate and do their part to

contribute with enthusiasm and

  dedication ensuring your success

and the success of all.
