• Don’t wait to be brave
• Don’t wait to be bold
• Don’t wait to be kind
• Don’t wait to be compassionate
• Don’t wait to be adventurous
• Don’t wait to be generous
• Don’t wait to be forgiving

Don’t wait until your days are numbered, before you start making them count Dear One.

Trust us, they all count.  Each and every one.

So, is the game over?

You decide what stays and what goes in your life Dear One.

You and only you.

And you do so with your choices.

You choose what stays by giving your attention to it.

You choose what goes by withdrawing your attention from it.

• Give your attention to your insecurity, and it will stay.
• Give your attention to the pain in your relationship, and it will stay.
• Give your attention to the lack of abundance in your life, and it will stay.
• Give your attention to the shortage of opportunity in your work, and it will stay.
• Give your attention to all of the things that are unwanted in your life, and they will stay.

So Dear One, what do you want to see stay and what do you want to see go today?

The world will change for you Dear One, as soon as you are ready, as soon as you are willing to change the way you look at it, and not a moment before.

When in doubt Dear One, when you don’t know what to think, feel or do next, gratitude is always a really good place to start.

Say thank you for something, anything, that you can identify in your current reality that is going right, that feels OK, that you can feel grateful for, or appreciation of.  Let your attention fall fully on that which pleases you, on that which holds promise for you, on that which brings you joy, comfort or relief – no matter how big or small,  and allow all that does not, to slip out of your focus for as long as you are able.

And when things that you are not grateful for once again capture your attention, be grateful for your awareness of them and the contrast that they bring and then once again let them go as you allow your attention to return being grateful.

Repeat, as often as necessary.

Before you are able to successfully take any positive action, (which is necessary if you want to generate positive results) you must first be standing in a place where you are able to see things from a positive perspective, where your point of attraction is a positive one.

And we can think of no better or quicker way to get you there, than with gratitude.

Now back to the question at hand Dear One; What next?

Any action taken that is inspired by gratitude will move you in a direction that you want to be headed.

To reclaim control of your life Dear One, simply reclaim it, one decision at a time.

Sometimes the answer really can be that simple.

Take note — we’ve said simple, not easy.

Which would you prefer Dear One:

• To live in an abundant universe filled with unlimited resources or one filled with shortages and lack?
• To have an unlimited number of choices available to you in every situation or only one?
• To live in a reality that is fluid, forgiving, changeable and influenced by all those who live in it, or one that is linear, solid and unforgiving, that you are powerless to impact?
• To have limitless power available to you to create, do, be or have anything that you heart desires, or to be a victim of circumstance, capable only of reacting to that which life throws at you?

Choose your answers wisely, because once you do – you must then live with them.

You get to live in the reality that you create for yourself Dear One.

You have to live in the reality that you create for yourself Dear One.

You have two options available to you when dealing with any situation or circumstance Dear One:

• Create more of it by focusing your attention on it
• Create less of it by focusing your attention elsewhere

Any decision that you make on the subject at hand is going to serve to accomplish one of these two outcomes.

So when it comes time to make a choice Dear One, pay attention to where your attention is focused. Ask yourself; is this decision going to serve to create more of what it is I am looking for or less of it.

Sometimes the answer will become clear to you before action is even taken – and sometimes it will not. Sometimes you might have to take the action and see for yourself what direction you begin to move in. If you like it, you can continue on, if you don’t, you can simply make a different choice.

Action is not always required to find your answer Dear One, but choice always is.

Do you want to know how to teach them to love you the way you want to be loved?

Love yourself well Dear One.

Show them how it’s done.

• You are not allowed to be shallow.
• You are not allowed to be cruel.
• You are not allowed to be offended.
• You are not allowed to hate.
• You are not allowed to run away.
• You are not allowed to hold a grudge.
• You are not allowed to tell a lie.

Who made up these rules anyway Dear One?

Was it you?  It was certainly not us.

Not one of these things is true you know.

You are allowed to indulge in each and every one them if you should choose to do so.

But recognize that is a choice Dear One.  And whenever you make a choice, we want you to do so consciously, intentionally, ready too take full responsibility for the impact of that choice on yourself, on others and on the world around you.

What you put out there is what comes back to you Dear One. That is a universal law.

Do, be, or say anything that you would like.  You have our permission.  You are allowed.  But do so with full awareness of the fact that with every choice that you make you are establishing a point of attraction for yourself, you are extending an invitation out to the universe to send you back an energetic match.

So, yes, you are allowed to do anything that you would like Dear One.  But now that you understand the rules, do you still want to?

You are wise Dear One.

Choose to remember that today and act accordingly.
