Would you let your life be run by a 4 year old?

Joy-filled greetings!

So what do you think?  Would you let your life be run by a 4 year old?

Believe it or not, in many ways, you already do!  Because every decision you make or don't make, is driven by one or more beliefs that you hold; and most often you formed those beliefs when you were a very young child.

From the very limited capabilities and filters you had as a child, you made lasting interpretations about events that happened in your life. Those lasting interpretations are what beliefs are made of.

For example, a child whose parents regularly praise her for her good behavior could draw the conclusion that her worth is based on how well she behaves or how well she does something, rather than feeling loveable and worthy no matter what. 

It doesn't matter what the parents are actually feeling or intending.  That conclusion could still be made; and it then becomes a life-time belief unless something happens to change it.  Unfortunately, most often, beliefs of this nature are out of our awareness, or, if not, they still seem very true or very difficult to change.


Picture
A belief is simply a judgement or interpretation that you hold as a fixed truth.  When you hold something as true, your mind filters for it, finds it, and therefore you keep "proving" your thinking as a "truth".  Your reality matches what you think and it becomes a self-reinforcing loop.

Your beliefs determine what actions you will/will not take, and how you react to things, as well.  They are the blueprints for what's possible or not possible in your life.  The new scientific field of epigenetics has also discovered that your beliefs actually influence your gene activity!  If a gene is predisposed to a disease, it is more likely to actualize within the environment created by "unhealthy" beliefs - ones that make you feel bad. 

So, beliefs are pretty powerful stuff.  If you have beliefs that support your life in positive ways, they're "keepers"!  But do you think it would be worthwhile to explore and change the ones that don't feel good and that don't empower and enable you to be, do and have what you desire? It IS possible!


NEW POSSIBILITIES CALL TO ACTION:

If you have lingering unfulfilled desires or you struggle emotionally, even with stress, then it's time to do some belief work.  It's time to have an updated, empowered adult run your life, not a confused preschooler!

Don't just settle for your current programming.  You wouldn't settle for physical ailments without trying to heal them, right?  Why settle for thinking patterns that have an even bigger impact, including your financial possibilities, your relationships, your career, your health, and your ability to thrive and really enjoy this life you've been given? 

Life can get better and better; and we've got a program starting April 8th for just that!   If you  participate in our Living on a Higher Vibration: Taking you to the Heights of Creation group coaching program, you'll learn how to become aware of the thinking patterns that don't serve you, and how to change them.


You'll move:
  • from your personal struggles to your personal success and joy
  • from worry and anxiety to peace of mind
  • from life being hard to living with greater ease
  • from scarcity thinking and not having enough, to abundance thinking and prosperity
  • from feeling at the effect of your outer circumstances to being able to deliberately and effectively create and live the extraordinary life you want
  • from feeling like you have no control over your thoughts and emotions and like they run you, to knowing how to creatively use your mind and have full emotional choice
  • from having what you don't want to having what you do want!

In just 10 weeks, you can create a lifetime of positive change and new possibilities for you!   It's time to become the power, freedom, inner-peace, abundance, well-being, love, ease and joy that is your True Self!

Your only cost is this:
Answer this: What do I have to lose (your costs) by doing nothing and staying the same:

And, here is what you'd be investing in:
Answer this: What do I have to gain by changing my small, limiting thinking and beliefs and learning how to manage my emotions – what could that future be like?  What else might open up for me?


Registration will be closing soon, so please check out all of the details here http://www.newpossibilitiescoaching.com/living-on-a-higher-vibration.html, and when you're ready to register, e-mail me at annide@newpossibilitiescoaching.com

What do you do when you get a really bad haircut and have a really bad day?

Joy-filled greetings, and happy March!

I can sincerely say that today.  The other day was another story.  The whole day was a struggle.  I was working on editing our website and the words just wouldn't flow, so it took what seemed like hours to get one page done. And, it didn't save!

Then, later in the afternoon, I went to get my hair cut, and she cut it way too short.  I mean, what 'cha gonna do at that point?  There wasn't even enough hair to fix it.  That evening, each time I passed a mirror, I felt an "ugh".  (Don't worry. That's not me in the picture, and it wasn't that bad. It does capture the feeling, tho'.)

I'm sure you've had days like this before, too.  It happens.  I knew early in the morning that my vibration was a little off, in spite of my meditation.  Yet, I pushed forward anyway, rather than take further steps to improve my state. It seemed "good enough".

Picture
So what can you do in these situations?  As I always say, when you can't control or change your outer world, you can at least change your inner one. Here's how I handled it and what followed:
  • I focused on the positives. At least the highlights came out nice; and with all the discounts I had, I didn't pay much for anything. At least it was only one page I lost, and it probably wasn't that great anyway.  (These thoughts by themselves helped a little bit; but not enough.  I needed to do more.)
  • Distraction worked great!  Good thing I had some good TV shows recorded!  I knew tomorrow would be a new day and a fresh start.
  • Next day, before doing anything else, I set my positive intentions for the day and took time to connect to my higher self until I could feel all the love, acceptance and divine perfection, and knew that I was back into a high vibration.  Funny, I couldn't even remember all the things that seemed so bad the day before!

From there, some different perspectives on my hair showed up for me as I moved on with my day.
  • "It's only hair.  It grows back.  This is temporary.  Life could be much, much worse."
  • Is it really that important?  What's my concern - that people will judge me by my hair?  I think I have way more to offer than that!  I am not my hair.
  • When I thought about significant people that I've admired, respected and loved, LOTS, maybe even most of them, didn't have perfect hair, or bodies.  In fact, they weren't perfect, either.  It's allowed!
Picture
Exercise is always great for shifting energy and moods, and for activating the brain for some creative thinking and writing.  I got on my elliptical machine right after breakfast with some fun music, and soon began to feel even better.  It occurred to me to do a little tweak of my hair style; and when I looked in the mirror I actually thought, "Hey, that's kinda cute!  I look pretty good!" 

Did I look better on the outside because I felt better on the inside?  I certainly think it was more than just that little "tweak" of styling.  Don't you?  There really is no one reality. Perception is everything.

There's my story of the power of changing your thoughts and managing your vibrational energy, or mood. 

The next time something doesn't quite go your way, do something to shift your energy first. It's more difficult to change your thinking while you're still all triggered and in the midst of it.  Meditate, or play music and dance or exercise, do something physical, or distract yourself with a good movie or show -
something that makes you feel good. Then try "tweaking" your thinking.  Challenge your automatic thoughts and try on some different perspectives; and soon you'll be back in the flow again!  (This entire piece flowed from me in like 5 minutes after I got off of the elliptical!) 

I am SO grateful that I have skills for managing my thoughts and emotions and reconnecting to my higher Self.  It's pretty infrequent that I have a "bad day" or mood anymore; but when it happens, I'm able to shift out of it fairly quickly.  My predominant mood is one of happiness and inner peace; and I've manifested a magnificent life full of dreams fulfilled.

Would you like this, too?  If yes, I invite you to participate in our Living on a Higher Vibration: taking you to the heights of creation! 10 week program, starting April 8th.  Those who have participated in the past now have happier, easier lives filled with their
dreams come true, as well. Now it's your turn!
