Be Impeccable With Your Word: Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
Don’t Take Anything Personally:Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.
Don’t Make Assumptions:Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
Always Do Your Best:Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.
“Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself. That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much further than people with vastly superior talent.” – Sophia Loren, is an iconic Italian actress.
Seek balance.
Balance emotions with reason.
Combine detachment with doing our part.
Balance giving with receiving.
Alternate work with play, business with personal activities.
Balance tending to our spiritual needs with tending to our other needs.
Juggle responsibilities to others with responsibilities to ourselves.
Balance caring about others with caring about ourselves. Whenever possible, let’s be good to others, but be good to ourselves too.
Some of us have to make up for lost time.
We have an opportunity in this moment to go beyond all the conditioned thoughts of the world, our friends, family and the like and step into a world that WE create from the inside out. We have an opportunity to heal from past wounds – now seeing them for what they truly were – lessons in growth and Grace showing us how to become more of who we really are. We have an opportunity to gain certainty that the future will be better than the past by living our Faith that The Uni-verse is FOR us and never against us. We have an opportunity to shine brightly, which will help to guide out Path as well as help others shine.
None of this can happen without a fundamental shift in our minds – from fear to Love, from blame to gratitude.
In the US – tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Many people from all walks of life – different religions, political beliefs, skin color and financial tiers will all come together for the common purpose of family, community and gratitude. We tend to hyper focus our thoughts on the things we are grateful for this time of year and it’s truly beautiful. But the real beauty, the true Thanksgiving is not about eating turkey, tofurkey and seeing your family for possibly for first time this year. Thanksgiving is something that lives in our hearts.
When we give Thanks for the Giving of our lives, we step out of lack and into abundance. We didn’t create this Uni-verse. We didn’t even create the air that we breathe. How many things around you do you get benefit from that you didn’t have to create for yourself?
If we want to live our dreams, if we want to have real Love in our lives, if we want to get to the end of our lives and have truly LIVED – Gratitude will get us there. Gratitude comes from an internal awareness that you are already whole. It comes from the internal knowing that the more you know, the more you realize that you don’t know – and so we are grateful for ALL experiences in our lives, because they have come to teach us. Being grateful means having the capacity to look around and see abundance – no matter what the minds of humanity proclaim. There is abundant sun, air, water and food for most of us. We – in the Western world – live more abundantly that 2/3 of the planet that live on less than $2/day.
Being grateful means stopping and getting out of your own story and helping someone in need. Nothing brings us joy like being of service to others. And it’s a pattern interrupt that takes us out of the drama of our lives, our story, our problems and puts the focus on others.
Being grateful is the first step towards being truly rich. We can manifest lives of magic if we give the events of our lives an empowering meaning filled with gratitude – today and every day. This is a journey my friend. Let us carry this Holiday spirit that we feel with us through the Holidays and make gratitude a way of life.
Do you have the spiritual power and ability to be grateful for it ALL, every day and carry that with you through your whole walk on this planet? We need you to be as grateful, loving and turned on as possible, because, my friend, THAT is how the world will change!
“Just for today I will not be afraid of anything. If my mind is clouded with nameless dreads, I will track them down and expose their unreality. I will remind myself that God is in charge of me and mine and that I have only to accept the protection and guidance. What happened yesterday need not trouble me today.
This is a brand new shining day and I have it in my power to make it a good one just by the way I think about it and what I do with it.”
I first became aware of the international ‘sign of coercion’ when I saw this picture in 2005…
Here’s the backstory;
“The picture shows that this soldier has been thru Survival School and learned his lessons well. He’s giving the sign of “coercion” with his left hand. These hand signs are taught in survival school to be used by POW’s as a method of posing messages back to our intelligence services who may view the photo or video. This guy was obviously being coerced into shaking hands with Hillary Clinton. It’s ironic how little she knew that he would so inform us about the photo—perhaps because she’s never understood our military to begin with.” Source: Picture of a U.S. soldier shaking hands with Hillary Clinton but not happy about it-Truth!
All of this to explain my current Facebook profile picture. I lost a bet to my son’s girlfriend’s father last year when the Packers lost to the Lions 0-7. He was kind enough to purchase the hat for the picture, so at least it didn’t cost me anything except my pride and a few hundred Facebook friends in Green Bay…
As good as the Lions are playing this season, I think we’ll still end up having the last laugh in February. In the meantime, I’ve got a great hat that actually fits — hard for me to come by — that I can use for mucking the stalls, etc., when I’m working on the farm…
Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
“It’s so easy to look around and notice what’s wrong.
It takes practice to see what’s right.
Many of us have lived around negativity for years. We ye become skilled at labeling what’s wrong with other people, our life, our work, our day, our relationships, ourselves, our conduct, our recovery.
We want to be realistic, and our goal is to identify and accept reality. However, this is often not our intent when we practice negativity. The purpose of negativity is usually annihilation.
Negative thinking empowers the problem. It takes us out of harmony. Negative energy sabotages and destroys. It has a powerful life of its own.
So does positive energy. Each day, we can ask what’s right, what’s good about other people, our life, our work, our day, our relationships, ourselves, our conduct, our recovery.
Positive energy heals, conducts love, and transforms. Choose positive energy.
Today, God help me let go of negativity. Transform my beliefs and thinking, at the core, from negative to positive. Put me in harmony with the good. ” Source; November 19: Positive Energy | Language of Letting Go
