Message From the Universe: Accepting Life As It Comes!

"Struggling and trying to physically manipulate the circumstances of one's life, reveals a misunderstanding of how those circumstances were actually created. And for the focus placed on them during the struggle, it actually serves to keep things from changing.

Acceptance, on the other hand, reveals an understanding that today's circumstances arose from yesterday's focus, encouraging introspection and fueling new thought, actually serving to hasten change.

Yeah, sounds like an SAT question.

Score,

It takes a whole lot of negative thoughts to create a negative outcome. However, when your brain manages around 60,000 thoughts daily, it is hard to really count the nature of your thoughts, either it being positive or negative. It will consume every ounce of energy you possess if you try. Now, instead of focusing on how many thoughts enters your mind, change your focus towards the nature of what you allow entering your subconscious mind. You want to change your focus, and the rest will follow. It is important to always look for new opportunities and if yesterday was miserable, today will change. Keeping these negative feelings can only damage your soul and wouldn't allow you to work on yourself and progress. Every day is a new chapter written in your book of life, and you are the author. Avoid letting negativity enter your mind day after day and allow it to drain your energy. You can't expect changes when you allow these feelings to happen. Fighting against an opponent (life) that is stronger than anyone you can ever imagine is a battle you will lose miserably. You can, however, fight life intelligently. It's not about how hard your hit back, it's about how much you can take from this fight and keep on moving forward. Life is looking to battle weak minded people, that will lay down after the first punch. Stand up and look at life straight in the eyes and say: "I didn't hear any bells. The fight ain't over yet". I agree that it will hurt, and it will be painful and life will keep on hitting. Life is NOT easy, so if things do not work out the way you want, it is NOT anyone's fault except yours. However, life do not feel it's worth the time to keep on hitting on someone who keeps on getting up after every punch. Show what you are made off and the rest of your life will unravel in front of you. Just know that others are dealing with way more difficult challenges than you do.

Despite these challenges you face today or will face tomorrow, you need to learn how to accept certain circumstances that will occur in your life, regardless of how much you tried to avoid them. There is no IF or BUT about it. It is a part of your destiny and it is already written in your book of life. Even though you are the author, some Epilogue have been written by G-d and this is what you will have to face. So instead of arguing about the outcome, start to think about ways to alleviate the magnitude of the ordeal so you can get out of it unscathed. I am not saying that it will be a walk in the park, but it will hurt all through the process. But again, once this phase is completed, start picking up the broken pieces and trash them. Remember that the pain you are experiencing is ONLY temporary, and it will subside after time. Quitting never really subsides as it becomes a part of you and your personality. Quitters never achieve anything, and they blame the whole world about their misfortune. They forget to blame the ONLY person that allowed the quitting to happen: THEMSELVES. If you have a dream, whatever it is, you need to protect it and cultivate it. If you want something, go out there and get it and don't wait for anyone's permission. When you go for your dream, do not be afraid to fail. You can't always win every war, but allowing yourself to learn from these failures is what can make you a better and wiser person. It will never be just about taking action, but also believing that good things will happen in your life and live like it already happen. Looking to be rich? Feel like you already achieve wealth and start looking at new homes and whatever else you desire. Everything starts with thoughts, then belief and finally, ACTION. So what are YOU going to do today?

Living The Life of Your Dreams - Do You Know What They Are? I Sure Hope So (Let's Make Sure)

In a world so full of cynicism and bitterness, it is essential to rise above it. Cynicism is all around us, just turn on the television or open a newspaper and you can not help hearing the commentators, pundits, or news report filled with it. Open your social media accounts and you'll see post after post with complaints and derogatory messages. You are not even safe walking around your community or sitting in a coffee shop because you will run into it all the time. You can not seem to be able to get away from it.

Science is showing us that everything around us is made up of energy. This energy affects us and has a direct influence on our lives. Humans have always been aware of their environment and have sought out environments with certain qualities. Among some of the attributes humans have sought out are safety, physical comfort, and psychological comfort. Maybe you heard growing up to choose your friends carefully as they will reflect upon you. With all these things, the energy you surround yourself with has a way of rubbing off on you.

The energy of cynicism and bitterness is a low-level energy. It is an energy that drags things down. If you wallow in this energy, it is difficult to change and to improve. And you do want your life to improve, don't you?

But, to be able to rise above it you must change your focus from one of bitterness and cynicism to a higher energy level. An easy way to do this is to live the life you were born to live. To do this, you must follow your dreams, but how do you do this, you may ask.

Why should you follow your dreams?

Your dream life is tied into what you love doing. By uncovering what you enjoy doing, you will live a more fulfilling life. Living a more fulfilled life enables your life to flow easier. When your life flows you can accomplish more with less effort.

Living your dreams expresses who you are. You are a person and have a contribution to make to the world. You can only do this by being true to yourself and expressing who you are. When you do this, you reach for greater things. You also become more creative, and this causes you to be happier.

Following your dreams seems more like play than work. You enjoy what you are doing, and because of this, you get lost in what you are doing. This allows you to enjoy yourself and the life you are living.

Being who you are fulfills you in ways nothing else can. When you are expressing yourself to the fullest, you are more secure in who you are. Being more secure frees you up from worry and concern. It enables you to stand in your strength and greatness.

Being true to who you are has you wanting to share with others. When you feel fulfilled yourself, you want to share it with others and help them achieve fulfillment in their own life. By following your dreams, you open up the opportunity for others to do the same, and you encourage them to do so.

How to discover your dream life?

You may be having a difficult time trying to uncover what it is you dream of doing. Many of us feel beaten down by life and have forgotten how to dream. We have forgotten what called us at one time in our life. If you find this to be the case, here are a few ways to help you discover your passion and rediscover your dream life.

Journal - Get a notebook and just sit and write down your thoughts. The best time to do this is as soon as you wake up in the morning or right before you go to sleep at night, however, you can do it at any time in your day. The important thing is to do it consistently and as close to the same time each day as possible as this will train your mind and open it up to thoughts.

Meditate - Meditation clears the mind and opens you up to hear the quiet voice inside yourself. This voice is directing you to go in the direction of your dreams, so if you can hear it, you will be able to discover what your path should be.

Think back to what you liked doing as a child - Your dream life is usually tied into what you liked doing when you were younger. It is tied into what you dreamed about as you were growing up. Remembering what your childhood dreams were allows you to discover the direction your dreams should take.

Pay attention to how you react to things - By paying attention to how you react to things as an adult, you tap into what makes you tick. Are there certain things that fill your heart with love and joy, or do they make you angry? By examining these reactions, you can tap into what is calling you to action. And action is where your dreams reside.

Try new things - Trying new things opens you up to new possibilities. New possibilities enable you to expand yourself. By becoming aware how you react to these new situations you will be able to uncover things that call to you. In this calling, you discover who you are and what inspires you.

Do you want to transform your life and have all that your heart desires without all the stress and setbacks you're currently experiencing?

To be able to do this, you'll need to get clear on what you want, set goals and achieve them. Go to http://www.lojope.com to find tools, articles, and the support you need.

The quickest way to achieve your goals is not to attempt them by yourself. Even if you don't hire me as your coach, hire a coach, all the high achievers do it. If you don't hire a coach, at least work with a trusted friend as the path doesn't have to be long and arduous, especially if you have someone along for the ride.?

Ways To Make Yourself Feel Happier

Do you find yourself looking at other people and thinking I bet their life is better than mine? Do you see people in a group or with a partner and think I'd like to have their life, they look like they're having so much fun?

How about you choose to be happy now with your Own life just as it is? Wouldn't that be a great feeling, just to be content with how things actually are?

You are unique and can make your own life just how you want it to be, and you choose to be happy. You don't realise how other people could be looking at you and feeling envious of how great they think your life is!

So literally Stop and think about your life and all the positive things in it. Change your focus from others to yourself. Are you a nice person? Helpful, kind, ambitious, excitable, relaxed, motivated, trustworthy and so on? Look at all your attributes which make you You. Then think of all the physical things you have in your life such as family, children, partner, friends, job, money etc.

Even if you don't have as much money as you'd like, or are not in a romantic relationship right now, or have children but they're causing you pain for example, then you can Still be happy and look at the positive side of each situation.

You may be in debt or not have much money, but do you have a roof over your head? Are you warm, dry and clean and still able to buy food to eat?

You may not have a partner right now, so why don't you revel in the fact that you don't have to compromise with anyone and can do what you want when you want?!

Your children may be causing you problems, but why don't you think how lucky you are to be able to have children (a position so many people would do anything to be in) and think of ways to help them rather than battle against them?

These are just a few examples, but it shows you can turn any situation around.

The happier you feel now, the more likely you are to get to where you want to be in the future. If you have goals and a desired life you want to obtain, then you need to be grateful for how your life is now. Sounds a bit like the chicken and the egg, which one comes first?! Even if you don't feel that great about how life is currently, it's not going to get any better if you feel negative. It can only get better if you already feel good!

I hope this article has been of some help and inspiration to you! I'm learning all of this myself and love it because it's made me a happier and more grateful person.

So to summarise and end my article, I'd like to leave you with this short and simple quote "Be Happy Now"!

A Law of Attraction Affirmation for When You Are Overwhelmed or Afraid

What do you do when all you can think of is the problem you need to solve? What do you do when the wheel of your worry seems to be powered by a rabid gerbil of fear? There he goes, running along, churning out more unease and feelings of helplessness. It is time to take back your power and change the direction of the flow.

Sounds great. Now how do you do that?

First, honor how you really feel. Pretending you are not scared does not work. Your body knows and there is no fooling it. You have to work through the fear and anxiety in order to clear it all away.

Admit that you are afraid or worried. Once you do that, understand that feeling something and being it are two different things. In other words, just because you are afraid does not mean that the situation is hopeless or that you cannot be empowered by your feelings.

You always, always have a choice in how you will respond to any situation. That is your super-power and it never goes away. No matter how bad things seem (and that is always a matter of perspective), you have the power to decide what meaning it does or does not have to you. You cannot choose how others feel or act, but you can control what plays in your own head.

Next, read these words aloud. (Or write your own version of an affirmation, whatever helps.) This can allow you to let go of the feeling of need so that you can change your focus to one of gratitude and expectation for a solution. This raises your vibration and can make you feel better too.

"I release my attachment to the outcome. I release my expectations. I release my suffering and allow myself to let go, falling into the arms of the greater truth. I trust the path, even when I am in pain or afraid.

I choose to trust when I am broken and when I am well. I choose to trust when it seems I will not have enough, as much as I do when my cup overflows. I chose in this moment, to focus on gratitude and remember all of the times when things could have gone wrong, but somehow went right instead.

This small situation is but a microcosm of time, space and perspective that will pass. The birds still sing. The fruit still hangs on the vine and the world still turns. Daylight chases shadow and the cosmos continues to expand.

No matter what happens, for me, this is but another lesson. I accept the lesson with a grateful heart and move on, secure in the knowledge that this is but an illusion that will one day fade. When that moment comes, when this mirage is over, I will understand every purpose, every pain and every reason that eludes me now. And so, I let go, trusting that all is and ever will be, well."

Now breathe and put your hand over the area above your heart. Then imagine the happiest memory that you have. No matter what it is, think of something joyful. You can also imagine how you will feel once you have the solution. Hold that thought, those feelings for at least thirty seconds. Really feel it. Rinse and repeat as needed.
