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.

You are a creator Dear One.

You have come here to create, not to simply comply.

Remember that.

We think that we can all agree Dear One, that beginning each new day by making commitments and taking actions that you knew would harm you, that you knew would end up generating results that you would rather not see come to pass, would be an unwise thing for you to do.

Are we right?

And yet, that is exactly what you are doing when you start your day off with negative expectations.

Before you do anything else today Dear One, stop and do something that makes you smile.

Think a happy thought, dance a jig, tell someone you love them, eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, anything at all will do.

If you can’t do it, if you can’t think of even one thing to do that will make you smile, stop, sit down, and do nothing else until you can.

Trust us Dear One, this will not be a waste of your time.

In fact, it just may be one of the most productive things you do for yourself all day.

Do you want to know what you can do to feel braver Dear One, to be braver?

We’ll tell you.

Being braver does not require that you become physically or emotionally stronger than you already are. It does not require that you become more fearless or aggressive than you already are either. Nor does it require you to take more risks, be more courageous, or be more willing to just-do-it.

All that is required for you to be braver than you already are Dear One, is for you to trust more.

The best way to start getting what you want Dear One, is to stop giving your attention to all of those things that you do not want.

That’s all there is to it!

Do you think that you could decide right now Dear One, that you are going to look for, acknowledge, and speak about only the positive, the promising, the possible, the best in every person that you interact with today?

We know it won’t be easy, but we promise you that what you’ll discover on the other side of doing so will totally be worth it.

Are you up for the challenge?

You and you alone are responsible for your experience on this journey Dear One.

• You are responsible for your feelings.
• You are responsible for your actions.
• You are responsible for your reactions.
• You are responsible for your beliefs.
• You are responsible for your words.

Do you get it?

If we were you, if we were the ones standing in your shoes in this physical reality, we would spend as little time as we possibly could indulging in opportunities that inspired us to feel inferior, offended, disappointed, discouraged, let down, powerless, angry, or unworthy, and instead spend our time indulging in opportunities that encouraged us to feel powerful, worthy, loved, motivated, optimistic, connected, compassionate, generous, joyful, happy, centered, and at ease, as often as we possibly could.

But that’s just us.
