I choose.
I am reminded; I get to choose how this present moment will affect me. I have a history of blaming so many outside sources for my misery and my happiness. I have learned that my perception of myself and the world dictates how I feel. My perception of myself can be one of appreciation, acceptance, […]
Opening the mind
I am reminded of the gift of intelligence. When I was young, I held fast to the beliefs of my childhood, until they no longer made sense. As I struggled to release myself from my old programing, I felt fear, anxiety, trepidation, and sadness. As I have moved away from those beliefs with appreciation for […]
Through the difficulties
I am reminded how it was through my difficulties that I became willing to change. Very early in life I learned how my choices would bring pain from others. I never equated that pain to a willingness to change. I also discovered how my behaviors could bring hurt to others. I never equated that hurt […]
Fit to receive
I am reminded how I am in charge of being in the proper condition to receive and utilize God’s power in my life. In my experience, I become fit through identifying, challenging and changing all beliefs which hinder my access to that Power. In order to discover what needed to be changed I needed to […]
Misfortune brings fortune.
I am reminded how every single difficulty I experienced has turned into a wonderful gift. Even the behaviors of others which brought me pain, confusion, sadness, anger, and rage. From these misfortunes I created a limiting belief system which maintained my victim stance. In my journey, I have allowed myself a new perception of these […]
Spot check.
I am reminded how a spot check inventory is very helpful, especially in the throes of an emotional upheaval. I have been practicing the art of stopping, breathing, and resetting when I feel emotionally off balance. My biggest lesson has been to lose my judgement of myself for getting upset in the first place and […]
Unreasonable demands.
I am reminded how this can be the root of most of my disappointments. I have a history of placing unreasonable demands or expectations on others and then blaming them for not meeting my expectations or demands. When I feel envy or jealousy, I am reminded to check myself and to discover what expectation or […]
Currently
I am reminded how the past no longer exists and the future has yet to be created. I must maintain my focus on the current moment. I have spent many years fretting over the past and worrying over the future, yet I had no power to change or influence either of them. The current generous […]
The Now.
I am reminded that I am allowed to live one moment at a time. I get to live in the eternal now. Knowing that the Divine Source Energy which I call God has everything in place for me to enjoy an amazing life, I can live in the moment without worry. With total knowledge that […]
Moving forward.
I am reminded how there were no bad or wrong decisions made in the past year. For when I take the time to view each experience as an observer, I get to find which experiences I preferred and which ones I did not prefer. This is the ultimate way of learning balance. The contrasts needed […]
