Clean up Dear One. There is an abundance of “clutter” around you that quite frankly, you would feel so much better without. There is an excess of uncertainty, restraint, and frustration in your life.  There is too much self pity, self-doubt, fear and need for approval.  It will be much easier for you to create the life that want for yourself when your space is not full of all of the things that you don’t want.

Are you ready let go and be rid of these things?  It is easier to do then you might think.  Here is the trick:  Do nothing.  That’s it.   That’s all.  Do nothing and all of the excesses in your life will fade away, diminish, be gone.

Do nothing to acknowledge them.  Do nothing to feed them.  Do nothing to indulge them or justify them or explain them or rationalize them.  Do not apologize for them.  Do not track how long you have had them.  Do absolutely nothing to, or for them anymore……and they will go away.

As soon as you stop feeding, fueling and acknowledging that which you longer want, that which no longer serves you, it will cease to be.  It is your attention to something that causes it to grow, that gives it energy, that attracts more of it to you.  So instead of giving even the smallest amount of your attention to that which is unwanted, try instead, to give it only to that which is wanted.  And then watch those things begin to take on a place of dominance in your life.

Clean up your thoughts Dear One and you will begin to clean up your life.

When you decide that you want to change Dear One, that you want to let go of old patterns, and all (or at least some) of the things in your life that you know just don’t serve you anymore, try not to look at it as if you are making some dramatic decision that you suddenly have to give up something that love, like, or just have grown accustomed to.

Because we know, just as well as you do, that that can be really, really, really, hard to do.

So instead, trying looking at it from a different perspective –  trying seeing it for what it really is.

And what is that?

Deciding to make an empowered choice to pick something new, something healthy, something powerful that will serve you, heal you, and strengthen you, body, mind, and spirit.

Do that Dear One,  focus on what you will gain from making a change and not on what you will be giving up, and you just might find the whole experience to be far simpler and much more pleasant than you ever imagined it could be.

.

Just how powerful are you Dear one?

Just how much are you capable of?  Just how far can you go?

That is something that only you can decide.

(I know this one is a recent repeat, but I was in need of the reminder.)

Why count your blessings Dear One?

Because when you are counting your blessings you are not counting your challenges, your woes, your heartaches, your disappointments, your fears, your pains, your mistakes, or your losses.

That’s why.

You find what you are looking for Dear One.

Always.

• Are you finding evidence of abundance in your life or are you finding evidence of a lack of abundance?
• Are you finding healing or are you finding evidence of a lack of healing?
• Are you finding love or are you finding evidence of a lack of love?
• Are you finding opportunity or are you finding evidence of a lack of opportunity?

If you are not finding what you are wanting Dear One, try paying closer attention to what it is that you are really looking for.

Remember Dear One, whenever you feel scared, chaotic, lost, or out of control, that your center, your home,  is always only ever one slow, deep breath away.

Fear exists nowhere Dear One, except within your mind.

Does that make it any less real?
Does that make it any less powerful?
Does that make it any less of a limiting or destructive force in your life?

The truth is that yes, it does, if you decide that it does.

What’s your story Dear One?

What is that you believe to be true about yourself, about others, about the world around you, about what’s possible?

If you are not sure, there is an easy way for you to find out.

Stop and take notice.  The people, circumstances and events that surround you are reflecting it back to you, every minute of every day.

You are living your beliefs Dear One, you are living the story you are telling, whether you are conscious of it or not.

If, when you look around, you are not happy with what you see, with what is being reflected back to you, we would like to suggest that before you start exerting a great deal of effort into trying to change what is, that you instead put your effort into telling a different story.  A story that you enjoy, that excites you, that makes you happy.  One filled will beauty, balance, abundance, love, health or whatever else it is that you want more of in your life.

Tell a different story Dear One, change your beliefs, and let the universe do the bulk of the work for you to bring them to life.

Tell a different story and watch as your world transforms around you.

You are limitless by nature Dear One.

You create unnecessary limits for yourself with limiting beliefs, limiting thoughts, and limiting behaviors, actions and feelings.

You tell yourself and the world a story of lack, a story of limits, every time you take an action motivated by insecurity, every time you speak badly or negatively about yourself, every time you curtail your actions because you feel afraid or unworthy.

Remove the limitations from your mind, your thoughts, your speech, your beliefs about what’s possible Dear One and you will remove them from your life.

Try it and see!  What have you got to lose, aside from your limits that is?

Please don’t waste any more of your time Dear One, trying to make the right impression, trying to fit in, trying to be accepted, trying to make them see, like, or love you.

Because no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you plan, no matter how much effort you put into it, no matter how careful you are, you are never going to be able to control what they think of you.

That is not your choice to make.  It is theirs and theirs alone.
