Message From the Universe: Start Looking Into the Future, But Live in the Present

"When you visualize a great dream of yours coming true, what do you imagine?

Do you see yourself jumping up and down, doing the happy dance, looking to the sky, and shrieking, "THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"? Can you feel the skin on your face stretch as you smile from ear to ear, or the palm of your hands sting as you slap more high-fives? Can you feel your fingers dialing your best friend's telephone number?

Yeah, I think you should.

"Very should,"

The Universe"

So what are YOU going to do when you have reached your ultimate goals? Will YOU jump up and down a sofa like Tom Cruise when he expressed his love for Katie Holmes? Or will you just take a breather, look up into the sky, thank the Universe for everything and be grateful for all the great things that are about to happen in your life? Will you scream from the top of your lungs with joy and tears coming out for all the hard work and sacrifice you have made to make all this happen? Whatever you do, you deserve it. Do all of what is suggested, or do whatever you intent to do and tap yourself on the shoulder for a job well done. You should be proud of everything you have done, because not many are about to go through the same path as you. Not many have the courage, the determination, the desire, the will to sacrifice to get to where you are today.

One important thing to mention though. You are now a TARGET. Yes, you are wealthy, powerful, and everyone wants a piece of what you have but weren't willing to risk it when you were in development stage of your idea. They will all knock on your door congratulating you for an amazing job, with the purpose of getting something out of you. It is important to really decide what step to take from this point forward. Wealth can play some crazy games with your mind so do not go and spend all of it at once. Do not buy yourself luxury cars or mansions. Get yourself smart and trustful financial adviser to how you can re-distribute your wealth so it can start making more money for you. Stay living the same way as you used to, so no one will come knocking on your door as you can delay response by saying: I have taxes to pay, will get back to you when all my responsibilities are met. Keep escrow account aside to give to family and friends and charities. The rest, invest it in your business, in a corporation that NO one can touch your funds, and develop a plan to make yourself more successful. Do not let yourself be taken by living the life of the rich and famous, as when that dies down, the people who partied with you will disappear with your wealth. Be smart!

The Key to True Meaning of Success

In life many people believe that success is based on external things like cars, houses, money, and other things that are external but the truth is success is not about anything outside of ones self. Success should be based on ones contribution and impact in and on the Earth. Many of us have believed the hype for so long that we have to show people the things that we do and have in order to receive their approval or validation.

In reality, none of that is needed because who can judge, approve or validate what is within you? Who can tell you if you got it right or not? Who can jump inside of your true vision or dream and say "Yep that's it you did it the exact way it was shown in your vision or dream"? I often tell my clients the one thing no one can high jack is your dreams and visions.

Your dreams and visions are what give you the road map and path to what can be determined as success. Only you can see what is within your visions and dreams so in order to know if you are successful or not you have to ask yourself "Did I birth out what I saw in my dreams and visions?" Many of us have vivid dreams and visions but we are so afraid of trying to begin the journey of birthing because of what could go wrong.

I challenge you to begin the process now because either you are going to live with pain or regret of not doing it or the pain of doing it now. No matter what there will be pain but not all pain is bad. Do you remember the saying "No Pain No Gain?" This is indeed true when we experience pain there is a memory now that is there to remind you of what you made it through and it makes you stronger.

When you go to the gym and work out there is a level of discomfort/pain that is necessary in order for you to know that you worked the muscle group that you had in mind. Sometimes you are sore for a day or two afterwards but you continue to go back to the gym to eventually see the results you had envisioned. So if this is true for the gym and working your physical muscle wouldn't you think it applies to every area?

The answer is yes in order to reach the level of success that you were sent here to make you have to continue to go back to the mental and spiritual gym to see the vision board to determine if you are exercising the right muscle groups to see the results of the vision. It doesn't matter if other people can see the results if you can't because they have no idea what the vision board looks like.

I say this to my students all the time, It doesn't matter what other people say about you but what you say about yourself." Many people look at this saying and associate it with something negative but it applies to the positive words also because you have to learn to affirm yourself and ensure that you are saying the things that you need to hear to yourself.

I challenge you to stop thinking about what could go wrong and think about what could go right if you birth out that vision and dream. When you focus your attention and energy on the vision and dream a flow of frequency and intensity will be there to pull and push you through. I believe when the vision and mission is strong it will pull you and when the attention and passion is there it will push you towards to success.

When this is understood your true success will be awaiting and the level of happiness, joy and peace that we all envision will be there also. There is no need to live beneath your potential and there is no need to live a life where you never get an opportunity to experience the true meaning of success and happiness. This is your birth right so embrace it.

You lack nothing at all! You can to this world to do something great that only you can do. Success was and is built inside of you so dig deep within yourself and pull that greatness out because it is yours.

What's Stopping You From Dreaming Big (By Chris Atley)

This was taken right around the time that my big dream to move to California was born. This was on a family trip to Disneyland & Universal Studios in California when I was 8 years old. At the time I was reading the Sweet Valley High books - remember those?! - where Jessica and Elizabeth lived in Malibu and drove around in a red convertible Fiat!! "THAT sounds amazing", I thought!!!

And so the dream was formed!

Funny enough my Mom found some of my old journals recently, where I had written down what I wanted to do when I grew up. Helping poor people and owning the Humane Society were written down. I was watching a TON of those commercials where the German Sheppard was basically crying, and they went on to tell us how much he'd been abused:(

I remember thinking that I was going to own all of the dogs in the world and live on a huge fenced in lot by the beach in Malibu, where people would have to be interviewed by me to see if they were fit to own a dog!

Some things never change. You can count on me to always let you know what is fair and what is not. I'm working on that...

What is that dream deep inside of you that's pulling at your heart strings? Read today's article below to learn where I landed on my dreams, what tends to get in the way of people making their dreams come true, and that it's absolutely okay to course correct along the way!

What's Stopping you from Dreaming Big?

See if you can tune into what you were wanting to do when you were little. I had the memory of California and the humane society, but I didn't realize I had also said that I wanted to help poor people! I remember saying in grade 6 (so age 11ish), that I wanted to either be a lawyer or a model, but not that part.

Well I definitely believe I'm doing my part to help poor people - I'm going to reframe that into helping people live abundant lives! - but the latter - the dog part - came about in a really interesting way!

And no, I don't own the humane society or all of the dogs in the world!

BUT I did work with a client once who is a K9 trainer who helps medics around the world care for the dogs who are on the job. Think guys jumping out of helicopters and landing on jet skis - she helps those types of handlers! Her training has helped to save countless animals, and as we worked on growing her business she was able to help even more dogs and people. When I was working with her awhile back, the realization set in that I was actually helping to make a difference in dogs' lives. It was a cool realization.

Throughout my childhood, whenever I felt "sad" I would think of going "home", which to me was palm trees, sunshine and the ocean. I'm not sure where this came from, but it was there. Like a knowing.

And being able to manifest something like that - that was such a big dream for me - has truly become my purpose - showing others we absolutely can be, do and have anything in life! We truly are limitless!

So what gets in the way?

Well a couple of things.

I do remember dating someone once and I shared with his parents that I wanted to help animals. I was pretty much shamed because they said there were so many people to help and why would I help animals instead?

Hmmm...

Insert doubt. I pretty much felt like a bad person for wanting to do that.

How often do we listen to other people and then talk ourselves right out of something as a result?

Don't get me wrong, feedback and validation are important, but not when it works against our dreams! Not when it talks us out of going after what lies in our hearts.

Our desires are given to us for a reason. It's how we know what our purpose is.

Most people spend tons of time and money trying to figure out their purpose, but we already have the answer inside of us if we would listen. It's our heart's desires, it's what makes us happy and what brings us joy. All we need to do is follow that and let it the rest unfold.

Which brings me to another reason people don't follow their dreams. They can't see "how" their dreams will happen and so they give up. This is one of the biggest areas to let go of in order to use the law of attraction to manifest our dreams and desires. It's not up to us! Look at the K9 medic story! I never could have dreamt that up in a million years!

Which leads me to it being okay to course correct. Our childhood and adulthood desires might look a little different, and that's okay.

I remember a friend saying to me once that I didn't actually make it to Malibu, but I was close! At least that's how I heard her say it anyway.

If we're being that knit picky we've lost sight of the whole thing. The dream was palm trees and the ocean in California, to which I achieved. I consciously chose which area I wanted to be in after living in California for 4 years. We visited San Diego a few times and absolutely loved it and the more laid-back lifestyle. It's what worked for us (insert also thinking about husbands and kids too - which I definitely didn't have at 8 years old;-)

It's absolutely okay to course correct and adapt your dreams as you go. I never would have thought I would be paid to be a speaker or start a second business in real estate investing when I first started my entrepreneurial efforts!

If we're shown the entire picture all at once it would be wayyy too overwhelming to bring to fruition anyway. But if we keep saying yes, one step at a time, to what brings us joy and what we're interested in, we will always be on track with creating a happy and purposeful life!

We just have to go for it!

xoxo

P.S. I don't know about you, but I have been so tired these last few days. I think something to do with a full moon?? Anyway, as I was sitting down to write this article it felt like pulling teeth. I didn't know how I was going to do it. But as I got started, I was reenergized writing about this topic. I got so excited writing about manifesting our dreams that I got a total energy burst! Another sure sign that we're on track with doing what we love ?

Going Inward

The visionaries who paved the way to where we are now must be commended for their work. They took a dream, a simple dream; they took the time to map out all the different possibilities to set their dream in motion. They stretched their imagination as far as it could go, and it worked out great for them. Sure, there might have been a few dreams that didn't turn out as planned, but in the end, they watched their dreams transform into a life of their own.

Some examples of great visionaries are: Henry Ford, John Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, and Thomas Edison to name a few. You can do exactly what they did by stretching your imagination. The thing about the imagination is, there are no limits, nothing is impossible. It is easy, clear your mind, totally clear it. Think of nothing, just be. Once you do that, you can start to let your mind wander. See what pops up; it can be a word, a phrase, an idea of how you can simplify your life, a new idea, or something that you've always wanted to do. Once you do that, the planning starts. What steps do you have to do to make it come alive? Again, let your imagination flow, the possibilities are endless. Map it out, draw it out, and work continuously to make it happen. You have to keep your dream alive; you created it and it is your responsibility to make it happen.

Our famous frontiersmen and explorers had a dream. They traveled to places no one has gone, they let their imagination go and they had no boundaries. Some of them were: Lewis & Clark, Christopher Columbus, Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, and James Bowie. Our world is so vast that it makes you wonder. Has every stone been unturned to reveal all of its history that lay beneath the soil? Have our footprints touched every inch of our world? You can focus on a part of the world that you want to visit. What is it that draws to you to that place? Have you seen all there is to see?

Risk is the common denominator that all of these people, and so many more that weren't mentioned, have in common. They took risks, they dared to dream, and they watched it become a reality. You can do the same thing. But you have to be willing to let yourself go, to take risks, and to realize that your possibilities are endless. Many people have paved the way for us; they have had struggles along the way and have made many sacrifices for their dream to come true. Now it's your turn. Stretch your imagination and make your dream come true.

We Learn Life Lessons From the People Who Come Into Our Lives (By Gary Wonning)

One of the hot topics in today's culture is bullying.

It can be a real issue for those, especially the young, who are affected by this. It can be a very traumatic experience for those who are victimized.

The only problem is, there are no victims in life, only participants. These so called bullies come into our lives for a reason. All we need to do is to discover the reason we are being taken advantage of, and take appropriate action to resolve the issue to our advantage and improve our lives in the process.

Sometimes the solution is a physical solution and we need to deal with it physically to teach the person a lesson he or she will remember for time immemorial.

But most often, it doesn't need to end this way.

On a more subconscious level, the bully is trying to teach us a lesson, once that is discovered, many times we can view that soul as someone who really made our life better by teaching us to become more self reliant, or guide us on a path of greater creativity.

If we go within, many times we will discover talents we never knew we had, sometimes these talents would never be discovered unless we are shunned by others and the only friend we have is ourself and God. Once we do some soul searching we discover many things about ourself we never knew existed.

We all have potential beyond our wildest dreams, but until we are forced to discover them, they go unnoticed. Only when an event outside ourselves creates an environment where we go must go within to find hidden strength, do we discover what we are really capable of accomplishing.

Suppose you have the ability to become a great actor of singer, but because you are shy you never even think you could become what you dream.

By suppressing your dream, you become even more shy by denying what your real character is, the more you talk yourself out of your dream, the more shy and unhappy you become until you are just downright miserable.

You would never get out of this vicious cycle if someone or something didn't come along and rock your boat.

Because, on some level of consciousness, we all create everything we experience, your subconscious mind, or higher self, (what many refer to as our Christ Consciousness) springs into action and begins the search for an answer to make you a better person and enable you to accomplish your life mission.

Here comes the bully, who has volunteered his time to help you. Sooner or later, his actions, or the actions of another soul if he should fail, will wake you to the reality of life, be it this lifetime or the next. It is your choice.

By his actions and yours, you are both evolving into a higher understanding of life.

Many believe the philosophy that we, each and everyone of us create our own reality, but when the going gets tough their belief falters just when it is imperative they stand strong for their beliefs.

This is the time one needs to do some serious contemplative thinking and look within and ask ourselves why we allowed this to happen to us.

When we do we will receive the answer and by owning up to the responsibility of creating our reality, we can overcome this obstacle and go on to lead the life we want and desire.

No one can do this for us, not our parents, family, the government or any one else, it is for us to do and for us alone.

It is only then that we can be proud of what we have overcome, and thank those who have aided us in our journey.

Message From the Universe: You Are Loved by Many!

"I had a dream last night that I was you. Doing all of your favorite things, with all of your favorite people, in all of your favorite places. I also dreamed that I was all of your favorite people.

Do you have any idea of how much each one of them loves you?

I didn't think so,

The Universe"

Imagine the Universe is choosing you as an example among the other 7.1 billion people living in this planet or even the other quadrillions living in parallel universes. I guess the Universe sees you as someone very very very special. You are walking in the right path, even though, at times, you may not feel like you are. You are working day and night, not sure if whatever you do will render the results you expect. The mystery is eating you up inside because of all the uncertainties you are facing every day. You know you have the skills and knowledge, but sometimes, it may not be enough to get to where you want to go. Every morning, you pray and feed your mind with positive thoughts so you can hopefully achieve your goals. You stay focused and not let anyone or anything stops you in your tracks. You have the right mind set to reach your dreams. Stay on this path, because it is the Universe who put you there.

There is NO question that you are being seen as someone with many talents. The Universe knows that and until you realize that by yourself, this is when you will experience hurdles and obstacles along the way. Know that you are capable of everything and if the Universe can see that in you, I am sure you can do the same. Many signs are around you, and it is up to you to open your eyes and understand the reasons as to why they are there. Even though it may seem too good to be true, it is important to NOT search for complicated reasons as to why these signs are there to guide you. Come to realization that they are there to bring you back to the path you were meant to be in and redirect you to where you need to go. Just stop looking for complicated ways to achieve things in life, and learn to simplify it by accepting things the way they are.

Message From the Universe: You've Done It - Bravo!

"I just can't think of anything more important to tell you today than "Congratulations, outstanding, well done!"

You are now, officially, the person you once dreamed you'd become.

It always works, 

The Universe"

You dreamed it, and it all happened. Many of us dream, come up with genius ideas for products, ventures or whatever else. We think about it but unfortunately for many, we stop here. We just think, and some time wait for the best time to bring this idea/dream/intent to reality and it never happens. We look at others follow their dreams and risk it all and succeed. Of course, there are some who do the same and fail and let their failure dictate the rest of their lives. You can't let that happen. If you fail, look at it as a lesson, a lesson to do better, a lesson to grow from this failure and not repeat the same mistakes. Tony Robbins, Zuckerburg, Trump, Besos and all the others who risked it all and jump into the unknown to follow their dreams and became the top 4% richest humans on this planet. They didn't let anything take them away from their ultimate purpose of becoming who they are today. They had that intuition, that desire, that purpose to do what they truly believed in and looked into the future with clarity and loads of determination. This is what a true entrepreneur is. Did they fail? Dammmm yeahhhhh. Many times over but did that deter them from pursuing their goals? Hell NO!

Life will throw you tons of challenges to overcome, obstacles to avoid and everything else that will come towards you and possibly bring you to dementia or/and full blown depression. It will be up to you to fight these urges to let life take over and do whatever it takes to move forward and learn from it. It is inevitable that these negative feelings will sometimes take over and block us from our initial pursuit of success but that can ONLY happen if you allow it. More difficult the challenges are to bring yourself to ultimate success, better it is for you. If it was that easy, you wouldn't feel that accomplished. You would always think that everyone else can do it, so you are not that special. However, when you do overcome what seems to be impossible and come out as a winner, you will change the way you look at things from this point forward and nothing will ever stop you from reaching your ultimate happiness.

Do I Have a Choice?

Do I have a choice?

Man, there's a question that's been bugging me for years. And I know it's been bugging many of you, as well.

It's a question closely related to the matter of confidence. Because confident people have a mindset of abundance, possibilities and proactivity. Whereas non-fident people have a mindset of scarcity, limitations, and re-activity.

Confident people not only see a variety of options to choose from when making choices. So they rarely, if ever, pick the wrong option; and they always find a way back out if they do.

Non-fident people, on the other hand, rarely see many options - if any at all. Therefore, they tend to think of themselves as victims of circumstances.

But what exactly IS a choice? Exactly how free IS our will?

Do I have a choice, for example, in what to eat for dinner tonight?

Oh, Hell yes. I have TONS of options. And if I don't stray too much from the theme of normal, human food, my choice isn't gonna make a whole lot of difference.

So that outcome can be based on factors like personal taste (certain dislikes etc.), impulsiveness (sudden cravings), and specific circumstances (the local store is out of rice).

But do we have any genuine control over these factors? We might affect them to a certain degree. We might eat something out of necessity if we're in a hurry. Or because we have nothing else left and can't afford anything 'till payment's due.

We might go to the other end of town just to try that new burger joint. We might eat vegan if we're visiting a vegan couple.

So, are those choices? Or, are they more like actions influenced by inner and outer conditions? Read on as you ponder this.

Another example: Do I have a choice in writing this article or not?

I could not do it. I could just slump on the couch, open a beer and watch House of Cards. Which, admittedly, I do feel like doing. But I also like writing, and I find this topic interesting. So I genuinely DO want to write this article.

Writing not only brings me joy; it makes my wonderful readers come back, and it keeps the search engines happy when done consistently. So I'll do it now, and then have a beer and watch House of Cards later.

That's my priority, then. Based on both urgency and pleasure - the latter both short and long-term.

Does that mean I have less mobility in making a choice like that? Again: Read on.

Last example: Do I have a choice in picking a career?

Oh boy.

We're often told that we can "be anything we want", but the reality is often quite another. A buddy of mine wanted to be a pilot. - A dream that would never come true because of his astigmatism. So he became an engineer, which allowed him to do something with relevant similarities.

So, is that a choice? Or is it rather a decision influenced by inner and outer conditions?

Me, I wanted to be a musician - something I gradually slipped out of due to more reasons than I can or ought to get into here. So I became an entrepreneur, because it has the same elements of freedom and creativity that appealed to me in music.

Again: Is that a choice? Did I actively choose to let the whole music thing just... slide??

And conversely, if someone is fixed on one job or career from the beginning, then gets that job or career and never changes course, is THAT a choice?

If those are both equally valid choices, then how are they not like each other at all??

The counterpoint here is basically the same all along: There are always options, but whatever we end up doing simply depends on a variety of factors.

If we follow this logic to the end, it's impossible not to consider determinism at some point.

So, do I have a choice? Yeah, kind of.

One of the problems here is our idea of free will. And, like I've said before, while we do have a will, it isn't free. It's conditioned.

Part of this problem is that the idea of free will is deeply ingrained in our idea of making choices. Even the word choice, rather than the word act - or, indeed, re-act, - seems to suggest there's more going on than simply a lifelong series of actions.

For the purpose of this article, I'll get back to what I said in the beginning about confident people and the way they think.

See, the more we think in making choices, the more confident we get. And, conversely, the more confident we get, the more options we tend to see, and the better we become at prioritizing.

And for all intents and purposes, that's what we want. Because that's what benefits us.

Do I have a choice? Maybe, maybe not. It's an interesting question, but it's not important.

What's important is being confident in one's thoughts and actions, and acting in accordance with one's values. What's important is making one's decisions on a solid foundation.

And it's more important to make decisions in the first place than to not make them. If we don't decide for ourselves, life itself will just bounce us around at its own convenience.

And with that, I'll conclude this article. Indeed, do I have a choice not to?

Meet a Champion Who Gives New Meaning to Never, Ever, Ever Give Up

There are people in life who amaze you, and then there are people who are so far beyond amazing that there are no words to describe them.

Such a one is 17-year-old Kobey Pritchard from Indianola, Iowa who is a state-level competitive wrestler. He's eying a future NCAA championship-and doing so with only one leg. Yes, you read that correctly, Kobey trains like a fiend to achieve with one leg what many athletes dream of with two. And that's without the benefit of a prosthetic.

Kobey's leg was amputated when he was six due to cancer. When he found the prosthesis uncomfortable, he switched to crutches. Which means he trains--sprints, lifts weights and works out--on crutches.

Why did I choose to introduce you to Kobey? Because he gives new meaning to "never ever ever give up!" I don't care which goal you have in mind, most of us fall down, not on dreaming our dreams, but on keeping-on keeping-on when the going gets tough. Can you imagine the number of challenges, not just physical, but mental and emotional that Kobey has faced as he's worked his way ever closer to his wrestling championship dreams? Yet none of them have deterred him from keeping-on.

So what's the secret? How can you develop a Kobey-like "never give up" attitude?

1. Don't listen to other people's nay-saying.

Whenever you go for a significant goal, there are bound to be people who will say "You can't do that, you're too young/old/short/tall/lazy/etc. (fill in the blank)" or "What makes you think you can do it?" or "You've never managed anything like that before" or any number of other "You can'ts." The one thing you can't do - is listen to them!

2. Hitch your wagon to a star.

Whatever you dream of doing/being, someone else either has done it, possibly in another field, or has come darn close. Someone you can admire, be inspired by, and in a sense, pulled forward by. Look for such people - alive or long gone - to help you remember that whatever it is, you can do it!

3. There's more than one way of doing things.

Kobey has had to develop techniques and skills that are different from the more traditional wrestling holds in order to win despite his missing leg. This is not a "one size fits all" world. There are as many ways of doing things as there are individuals on the planet. Have the courage to go outside the usual ways of approaching your goals whenever you feel stymied by the ways most people have adopted.

You truly can achieve whatever goal it is you have in mind, as long as your passion for that goal fuels you, and your absolute faith in your ability to somehow, some way, accomplish it is unwavering.

A Good Chance In Succeeding

We all want to succeed in life. There might be some people who are better than others but there are certain factors that determine just how successful we will become at reaching a particular goal or dream. We need to take charge of our life and never let anything hinder us.

In order to have a good chance to succeed, we need to know who we want to be and let go of our present self to be who we envision ourselves; find satisfaction in pursuing our goals; pursue a realistic goal that can improve our lives; think positively and let go of our fear of failing; acknowledge little rewards along the road to success; take responsibility for our actions and outcomes; build a strong support system and strong confidence and not to blame others for our lack of resources or accomplishments in life.

Another good chance in succeeding is to keep on trying. Success has something to do with how we react to our circumstances. It's actually a matter of attitude and principle. In order to be more successful, we must have a deep connection to the things we want to accomplish. We need to seek for something that is emotionally fulfilling like financial stability so we can spend more quality time with our family.

Many people feared to pursue something because of losing out on something else. Sometimes we think negatively when we consider pursuing a goal or dream. Most people think about all the negatives that may come along with that pursuit. Negative thinking is much easier to do than positive thinking, and those negative thoughts put fear in your heart which is detrimental to our success. When we develop our ability to look at things in a different perspective, we can increase your chances of success.

There are also times when people tend to quit before even starting. That is the reason why it is important to set up our goals. Let us focus on things that have short-term rewards. This will allow us to be more patient in reaching our goals. When we Improve this delay factor, improve our chances of success.

When we feel like we can't make something happen, it's easy to put the blame on other people rather than take responsibly for our lack of accomplishments. It's a well-known fact the we cannot control the situations that may arise in our quest, but we can control our actions.

We need also to improve the number of people who support us to increase our chances of succeeding. If we believe that we can do something, we won't mind the distractions that are holding us back and we can make it happen.

If we happen to have no available resources, we need not blame it to someone else because there is always a way to make a goal achievable. For example, seeking out new experience. The wider the range of experiences we pursue, the more we will be exposed to different people, lifestyles and perspectives. Seeking out new experiences means that we're willing to challenge ourselves and want to keep learning about the world around us.

When we have high expectations in life, the more we are disappointed if we cannot achieve them. We need to be open-minded. When we are open to possibilities without necessarily expecting anything immediately or directly in return, amazing things can happen.

We need to treat everyone we meet with respect. Each of them has something to offer. We'll be surprised at how many people are willing to support and follow us if we treat them with respect, regardless of what they've achieved or where they are in their life. To be successful, we all need help. People are dynamic and situations do change. We need not to be judgmental, we need to have friends and build network and linkages.

From time to time, we also need to share what we have. By doing this, we become better and we focus less on our own shortcomings. There's so much for us to appreciate in life even if our road to success has many stumbling blocks.

In fact, our mistakes can lead us to success if we learn from them. People who are willing to take risks inevitably make mistakes but have more chances in succeeding life.

People are often easily discouraged when they encounter difficulties in their pursuit to success. This article somehow provides some recommendations on how improve our chances of succeeding by never quitting.

How Do I Plan for a Successful Future and Life?

Don't plan! Life is too unpredictable, big and precious to be planned!

It is true! Life or success can not be planned and managed though many people may try to convince you that it can be. A way more better approach is to start with yourself and your situation and alternate with mid term and short term goals!

1. Analyze your current strengths and situation:- What can you do well? What you like doing well? How are you placed financially? Look closely at your current status and daily activities and try and write down things that you feel are going to help you build a happy and satisfied life.
2. Dream away:- Write down your long term vision of your life? Do you want to build a business? Do you want to become a millionaire? Do you want to house in the hills? Just let your mind wander and write down whatever comes to your mind. Keep it in the same notebook that you will access regularly.
3. Build A Bridge:- Take a look at the goal notebook and see if there are any short term or mid term goals there. There may not be. Choose goals that can be converted in mid or short term goals. E.g. if you have a goal that says I want to become a millionaire and your current net worth it 30000, you need to have a goal somewhere that says that I want to get my net worth to some more reasonable number in next 5 years.
4. Start from your current situation and build a detailed plan:- Please note that this is not a life plan. This is a short term plan taking you from your current status to your mid term goals. If you want to get your net worth to a certain number, you will have to figure out how you are going to earn that much money. You will have to plan to invest, build side-businesses, passive income etc etc.
5. Execute and track:- This is a very important step. Put your current status and goals in an excel sheet. Update it every month and note down how much closer you are to your goals.
6. Enjoy the process:- Make sure you do not make the whole thing a chore. You will never be successful that way. Add fun elements to the process. Reward yourself big time when you reach the milestones.

Message From the Universe: Trusting Yourself Is Crucial

"Having a dream... Courage.

Visualizing your dream... Persistence.

Physically moving towards your dream... Guts.

Letting go of the "cursed hows"... Wisdom.

The look on your friends faces, when they see you on the red carpet... Priceless.

Yeah, that oughta light a fire -

The Universe"

Sounds like a familiar TV ads with MasterCard right? I guess everything you do or every step you take is getting you closer to reaching your ultimate dream. Having a dream is great, but not knowing how to visualize it can be detrimental to understanding what you are trying to gain with this dream. Let's say you mastered visualization with lots of meditation, it is important to take action and taking the necessary steps to actively reaching your goals. There is, like with anybody else on earth, a little voice inside wondering HOW the hell will this ever be done or achieved. You start questioning yourself, and putting lots of your energy on the negative thoughts instead of the positive ones. You forget that the how's aren't your problems since you've already delegated this task to the Universe. Yes, your read it clearly. The How's isn't your problem, just make sure you continue delegating this task to the force from above. The Universe will abide by your wishes as long as you continue walking on the path to success. Many will think it can't be that easy. Guess what? More you think of it not being easy, and less easy it will get. So why torture yourself this way? What is the point to all that?

WE all know that throughout your journey to success, you will come across family and friends who are very afraid of you succeeding. They will do everything in their power to warn you, to advise you, to share their concern about wasting your time and energy on things that will NEVER happen. They will come up with the worst scenarios as potential failure can happen and you may lose EVERYTHING. OK, let's analyze that one for a second. First, why did you allow them to know anything about what you do for them to give you any advice? Are you waiting for their approval for the things you want to do in your life? Do you need their authorization for creating your own future? So how do they know anything about your dreams or goals? No one should know anything except yourself or the people you know you can trust or mentors who are there not to judge you but to encourage you when wanting to reach your dreams. Stay away from the ones who are afraid of their own shadow. Stay far away from them if you can. They are afraid of doing anything positive in their lives but don't want to be left out when YOU succeed. So by the time you do walk the red carpet, look around and enjoy the success. Be ready to get calls from the so called friends who discouraged you to congratulates for an amazing job. The look in their eyes when they read about you on Fortune 500 magazine... PRICELESS!

Message From the Universe: You Are Yourself, Regardless of Others!

"It isn't easy at first but one of the greatest gifts you could ever give someone who makes your heart soar is the freedom to learn their own lessons, at their own pace.

Even trickier is discovering that one of the greatest gifts you could ever give someone who gets on your nerves is the freedom to learn their own lessons, at their own pace.

And perhaps most challenging of all is understanding that one of the greatest gifts you could ever give yourself is the realization that your heart soaring and your nerves fraying have never been dependent upon other people and their lessons.

Tallyho,

The Universe"

Many lives a codependent relationship with others and do whatever it takes to make others happy. We sometimes forget ourselves in the process just to make sure the other person won't get their feelings hurt. We sometimes live our lives to guarantee others happiness, at the expense of our own. We lose ourselves in someone's else dream or goals and that other person grows spiritually while we are left on the back burner. As our energy signature changes, our connection to that person does as well. Besides money problems or infidelity, married couples need to work extremely hard to keep that connection alive, and some couple fail doing so. They don't realize that, unlike the two main reasons for divorce occurs in many couple, when you lose connection with your significant other, you need to address the problem immediately. The good thing is those kind of problems are reversible. Losing connection is temporary, as long as you work on making personal and couple changes. Both have to be involved in the process or all is lost. You can't be the one growing at a regular pace and the other stagnates. Further you grow from that other person, more the disconnect will intensify. Do whatever you need to do to make changes, TOGETHER.

When two people get together, they have the right intention to stay together. No one wants to lose their kids with divorce or an ex that wants revenge because of past marital problems (infidelity or addictions). However, things like that do happen to many couples around the globe. Is there a solution? Definitely. Problems ONLY exist because the solution is already close by. Einstein said: " Problems cannot be solved by the same mind that created them". Pretty profound statement and true. If your mind creates a problem, you will be too consumed to find a solution, and if you do, the solution will never be optimal. Hence, the reason why married couple uses the help of therapist. A third eye perspective is needed in situations like this. To make relationship work, you need to be your own person, never be dependent on ANYONE and learn to accept yourself for who you are. Once you do that, people will learn to do the same for you.

Off Kilter? This Helps You Find Balance No Matter How Life Tilts

Change is constant, and yet, it can feel overwhelming at times. We are each unique in how we approach changes, how we experience transitions, and how we maintain balance.

And it's not just external changes. Our energy influences our balance, too. So, here are 5 tips to enhance your understanding of balance and help you find it.

1. Balance comes from drawing on your full range of energies, not a 50/50 split of work/home activities.

Balance is less about how much time you schedule for each sector of your life than it is about how you approach activities energetically. For example, if you follow up an ambitious, sales-oriented day at work with a game of handball, then engage in home remodeling until bedtime, you are not allowing yourself to relax, reflect and simply be.

Likewise, if you end a day of care-giving by tending to family and grooming your dog, you have no opportunity to challenge yourself in self-directed physical or creative endeavors. Your drive, your receptivity, your originality, and your caring are all distinct energies that complement one another. Their variety adds depth to your life.

2. Balance is about how you use your energy.

Balance entails living in dynamic equilibrium. Learn to recognize the feminine energy and masculine energy that feed your vitality. Observe when you create and dream, and when you take action. Alternating freely between these 2 energies helps you balance and integrate what is essential in your life.

3. Balance is about taking care of yourself.

To balance your life, learn to quiet yourself and identify messages you may be working from. Balance comes from discerning each fear you hold and how it drives your choices from moment to moment. As you become aware of your rhythm, you can pace yourself more successfully. You will sense when outlays of effort need to be followed by something restorative. To live in dynamic equilibrium, learn to accept that you can only be in one energetic place at a time.

4. Balance is activated by aware actions.

Observing yourself and embracing lessons from your intuition (or inner guide) are fundamental balance skills. Attune yourself to the signals your body provides to assess the situation, your environment and your choices. Act from an enlightened, inspired, balanced position.

5. Balance is learning to create harmony with yourself.

Using your time and energy harmoniously will smooth out the wrinkles in your day. You will feel more content and grounded by creating a balanced base for your daily activities. Assess your time choices and motivation by asking questions about how you are using your time in the moment.

• What do you need more or less of to create a balanced base?
• How are you off-center?
• What happens?
• How can you regain your balance in the moment?

I Had A Dream - A Very Pleasant One

I had a dream. It made me visualize the beautiful aspects of life. A bright future with all the negative vibes wiped off. I was the only spectator watching the entire humanity turn into a whirlpool of emotions leading to goodwill, love, care, obedience, and respect. Chivalry was the leading reason and it made women the leading survivors on the planet. Their place was never as strong as it was now and they did not feel the slightest of resentment or cruelty as they did in the past. It was like the golden period of their life. Humans turned into hard workers with brains that lead them to merit their work with combined time for relaxation. They worked effortlessly with enough time to sleep, talk eat and spending time with their loved ones. The scientific inventions took no time to look back and innovation leaped on with a panther's easy grace. The spaceships rocket launchers the space stations telecommunications and satellites were on the go and left no stones unturned in developing the universe. The galaxies retained no big question marks on their existence and the mysterious creatures called aliens were no longer a threat. Instead, they did things that we thought was humanly impossible in seven births. It was the ability, nature and the fantastical elements of the universe that combined and made an amazing contribution in building a new-fangled world.

Children were the apple of their parent's eyes. No one dared to disregard his or her wishes keeping in mind the reason of protection. They were given the best of everything from birth until they reached their middle age. They had an unconditional love for their parents and family and were programmed to enter in the world that way. Bad words or spoiled language was like a dream and they did not even know what hatred meant. All they knew about was to work hard, respect their families have a good life ahead and worship the divine. It was the time where the element of negativity was miles away or was not born. It was an era of a beautiful and unique existence of life

Nature did not weep neither the animals' were afraid to enter our residence. They did not hunt irrationally or gave piercing angry cries that frightened the babies. They bowed their heads when people touched them and gave the necessary help when in trouble. No one was afraid of anyone. Sometimes the aliens from the neighbouring galaxies visited the homes and learnt the new humane ways that were free from malice and rage. Children were amused at their appearance and asked many good questions about their life-style. Some of the space shuttles took kids to the ride of the Milky Way and showed them their beloved star clusters and the exotic creatures floating around.

Abundant trees with an add-on of flora and fauna lead to the absence of disease. There was no sign of illness and the big I of illness was gone from their dictionaries. No mental pressures no hard deadlines or work commitments that before lead to suicidal tendencies. It was like a dread-free dreamland where only happiness persisted. People reached the age where they had to leave from their worldly desires but the griefing was forbidden. It was the beginning of a new birth that leading to a curiosity of its next beautiful formation. People died just to get a better birth

Flowers did not perish nor were they crushed. They willingly popped themselves out from their roots and sat on their favourite spots. They did not die but changed forms according to seasons. Money came with limitations. It only went and stayed in the house where the owner was in its need

As malice was absent nobody even thought about theft or keeping the things in excess than their needs. Speaking of food, it was delicious, healthy, and mouth-watering. Plants were showered with abundant rains so people relished the leafy green vegetables either boiled or had raw. It gave them a healthy glow and a refreshing spirit. These made an add-on in their positivity and work force. An in the pink skin was a regular show. It is a known fact that when your stomach remains clean you will have an awesome day and these people had no trouble in that.

It was a happy aura of sophistication respect and loyalty. Roots of love were giving fruits of faithfulness and integrity. What was not to love? It was going on and on and on.

My eyes flickered open! It was dawn and I woke with a jerk with my alarm ringing rigorously. I opened my eyes and found myself in my apartment in my room where the atmosphere was telling me to get up fast and run for the office. With morbid thoughts, I jumped up from my bed and ran to the reality that beckoned me to melt my very pleasant dream.

We always dream and wish for wonderful things to happen. We have to try for that to be real. Its all on us. We and only We are responsible for making a better future or making it worst for our kids to see. Let us hope for the best and nothing less.

Secrets to Believing in Yourself and Achieving Your Dreams

BELIEVE YOU CAN BE SUCCESSFUL

While it is quite true that every great achievement in life begins with desire, no achievement is however reached without being convinced deep within our hearts that what we desire is achievable.

While we are unconvinced about the feasibility of any dream or whatever we desire, we lack all the power, passion, enthusiasm, perseverance and lots more, to drive that dream or desire on in other to make them a physical reality. We feel weak-kneed, shallow-hearted, empty-brained, bloodless and lifeless whenever we think about that dream. We feel jelly-hearted and end up always procrastinating and procrastinating from time to time. We feel we are not yet ready.

But once we are convinced that dream is feasible, achievable, that is, we believe it is realizable given all the abilities and resources we have and those of others we are going to be networking with in order to bring the dream to life, we suddenly become energetic, passionate, zealous, enthusiastic and heavily loaded right within. The right dose of adrenaline is injected into our blood!.

Our brains receive fresh vitality from our blood vessels it brightens up and prepares a strong foundation on which other roadmaps to our success empire can be laid.

Our mind sharpens up, and opens up to receiving creative impulses that can immensely help us to design and implement the step by step distinctive actions, plots, schemes, contained in our master plan to achieving our specific and definite dreams, goals and pursuits.

To believe is to feel sure or certain that something is true or possible. When you are certain deep down beneath your breaths that your goal, dream, targets are feasible and achievable, then every other thing starts falling into its proper place.

Many people fail in life not because they didn't desire success or riches but because they never really got too convinced deep down their hearts, they never really got to believe, to be certain beyond all doubts that their dreams are feasible, attainable, achievable!

The truth is "all things are possible to him who believes is the moment you truly believe, the invisible mental barriers and blindfold that used to darken your mental eyes and all the gigantic mountains the fear of the unknown has created in your subconscious mind disappear. They start falling down before you as you step forward. They disappear like a mirage as you appear on scene. And soon you realize you are actually unstoppable. Your dreams are actually achievable. And new ideas ways, opportunities unfolds before your very eyes.

To believe in your dream all you have to do is take a second look at your self- you are fearfully and wonderfully created. You are only aware of a small part of what you are capable of in life. Like an iceberg, only a small portion of your total potential is visible. Your mind is an engine room for riches, success and great inventions, creations that are yet to be revealed!. The mind is loaded with unbelievable power-you just have to lean how to put it to use positively, and productively. And you'd be surprised at what eventually becomes of you.

Every great man, every successful and famous person were once 'ordinary' people. They were once ordinary 'unknown' people until they learned how to desire to be great, and as well learned how to unlock the latent powers of the conscious and sub- conscious mind. They were ordinary people like you until they learned how to harness the powers of their minds by believing in their inner God- given abilities, and as well that of others, in other to bring their dreams to life. You too can, if only you BELIEVE!

How Positive Visualization May Bring You Wonderful Fascinations

The power of visualization certainly may bring you much closer to what you want to accomplish in this world. Regardless of how hard we work toward our goals, there is a right-minded and exciting practice we focus our minds to while relaxing at home, and without breaking a sweat.

It's the idea of the power of visualization where you instruct your mind like you do dream figures while sleeping. While in this world are we not simply dreaming of life while in life's waiting room, so to speak.

I read an ancient story where the author describes his teacher carefully instructing and reminding him about the fine art of dreaming: "Every time you look at anything in your dreams it changes shapes."

There seems to be a tendency to either merge with the dream figures, which constantly keeps pulling one back into the dream plot, or to move toward wakefulness. There have always been those who are able to maintain a fine balance between wakefulness and sleep.

If this is the case, however, are you able to distinguish between yourself and dream images?

When we dream, think about where our minds must be.

During these moments that a dream takes place, don't we see a world that seems real? Think about those characters and situations that are of your choosing where the idea of the power of visualization is concerned.

Doesn't the dream seem to be totally out of proportion to the world?

Our own fascinations bring us the power of visualization and what we thought was out of reach and change to satisfy the ego which represents the body.

We would not need to have dreams if we didn't see ourselves as needing the ego, and always feeling as though we are under attack by someone or something ready to deprive us.

Our dreams have no concern with what is true, and our conflicting wishes, wants, and needs bring chaos and misunderstanding to what we dream.

A Course in Miracles states, "A concept of the self is made by you."

Waking Everyday Lives

A dream is the best example of the power of visualization and how we form our perceptions-- illusion as a substitute for the truth.

When we wake from our sleep we don't take the dream seriously, because we see that we remain safe in reality. Can we bring the power of visualization to our waking everyday lives?

Dreams are a way of looking at the world and changing it to better suit our egos. We'll always have an ego while in this world, because the body is its home.

The wrong-minded more fearful and negative aspect of ego projects images out of fear, doubt, and guilt that make things seem to be going wrong in our lives.

Power of Visualization

From the ego's more optimistic right-minded thought process, it calms and silences down to open itself to reflection of true reality beyond bodily form, rather than projection of fear, and this is when life seems to be filled with success and bliss.

Dreams are excellent examples both of the ego's inability to completely tolerate true reality and our willingness to change reality on the ego's behalf. Because it is aware it can never experience it, the ego can't tolerate true reality.

Think of how you may use the power of visualization and what your world could be if you more clearly understood that the ego in you is filled with fear, because it is aware that when it fully awakens to true reality the body will be no more.

While the power of visualization may get you to your goals and align your dreams to true reality, your future may not see all of the big things you imagine.

More often than not, the practice of positive visualization leads to a healthy lifestyle.

To a life of your dreams!

Put Aside That Proud Badge of Honor of Being Busy

Ask anyone, "Hey, what you been up to lately?" and I'll guarantee the response will sound something like this, "I'm so busy! I barely have time to breathe!"

Or, maybe this, "There's just not enough hours in the day!"

Of course, it is said in a rush, so as to punctuate the importance of their busyness. To convince those who may listen, that they have a full, accomplished life.

Being busy, these days, is worn as a badge of honor. It is something we have come to be quite proud of and at any opportunity, we readily brag about it to others.

In fact, we have become so enamored with "being busy," we worship it as if it is a religion. We are deeply devoted to our made up generally agreed upon beliefs and practices, and, we observe them as if they contain a moral code which governs all human affairs.

Nothing else is as important than being busy, no matter how stretched or exhausted we may become.

Each day, each moment, without question, we scramble from one thing to the next. We work longer and longer hours. We let things pile up undone, bills unpaid. We often ignore family and friends, giving minimal attention to our loved ones. Our self care has taken a backseat to everything else. And, at the end of a long day, we flop into bed exhausted, only to wake to the same chaotic, over-full, tightly packed schedule the next day.

The insane thing is, we have come to believe, by doing so, we have fulfilled some sort of noble cause.

But, what if being busy is something you are not meant to be proud of? What if busyness is the major reason you do not have what you truly want or desire in life?

What if your money life suffers because of it, even if you make more?

Believe it or not, there is a correlation between your overly busy lifestyle and your unsatisfactory money life. And, when you release some of your busyness, your money picture nicely shifts right along with it.

How is that possible? Here are seven major reasons why...

Reason 1. When you are less busy, you are more present in the moment. You notice opportunities you would otherwise miss. And, you forego those things you used to do (or buy) in haste -- those things that didn't serve you.

Reason 2. When you are less busy, you recognize that motion is not necessarily progress. You then tend to prioritize more effectively and proceed with purpose.

Reason 3. When you are less busy, you notice what are real problems versus those that are not. You expend less energy on putting out fires that weren't actually fires to begin with.

Reason 4. When you are less busy, you take better care of yourself. You get more sleep. You eat better. Your health improves. You hug more.

Reason 5. When you are less busy, you take time to learn something new or gain a new skill -- like simple, money management skills which then you have time to implement.

Reason 6. When you are less busy, you actually have time to think, plan, and do nothing! You allow time to contemplate life (or your naval)... whatever feels good in the moment. You allow it to unfold.

Reason 7. When you are less busy, you remember to dream.

You actually make room for whatever must take place for that dream to come true.

Money does respond to quiet, purposeful moments. Those moments in which you set your intentions. Those moments when your full attention is on what is truly important to you.

Those moments in which you listen for the guidance from your soul which is always calling you to your higher purpose -- That is, if you but take the time to hear the guidance.

If you do, you will then take action that is intentional, purposeful, and mindful, and in line with your purpose. Not busy, over-extended, or stretched which only leads to burnout and dissatisfaction.

And, by the way, there is nothing more dangerous to money than burnout and dissatisfaction. It is, after all, the reason many of you love to shop!

Do you need to take some purposeful steps and yet, you are not clear on what those would be?

Do you wish to have guidance?

Don't go it alone... Let me support you while you zero in on the next best steps to take. There are useful steps you can take, specific to you, to help you along the way.

I'd love to guide and support you. Maybe a single session would do the trick? A one and done -- single, deep dive session to get at the heart of the matter.
