What's Good? / What's Bad?

We all have so much information on both sides of this question. “Good / Bad?”, “Naughty / Nice?”, “Happy / Sad?” As children we began seeing things in opposites. Actually, this is our seeing things in duality. Our basic nature is happiness and love. So therefore it is suggested that we are all good and all deserving to be happy. And yet many of us don’t believe this. We’re afraid to have goodness, everything nice, and our always being happy. We have fears, lots of fears about having abundance. So in reality we are pushing abundance away from us.

What is the Cure to Relieving Stress?

Perhaps you’ll agree that absolutely nothing about stress feels good. Stress is basically feelings based on insecurities of not knowing what to do about a particular situation. Stress feels angry, confusing, and sad. Stress also feels anxious, irritating, depressed, and fearful. Sometimes these feelings are felt at the same time making it difficult to concentrate. The amount of stress that we create for ourselves is at times overwhelming. Although it is easy to take a walk and immediately begin to feel better; out of habit, we find it easier to pout, mope, and complain.

***Success Starts Today!

What a terrific way to start the day! There is nothing passive about this statement. It is bold, to the point, and includes a specific timeframe. Actually this phrase sounds like an intention. Let’s face it, the only way we can achieve success or anything else is by making a decision. Deciding to achieve success and being successful is better than playing the basic game of philosophy by asking ourselves the questions of “Who, what, why …? When, where, and how…?” over and over again and each time coming up without an answer.

Enjoying the Holidays!

This year let’s all plan to enjoy ourselves and the holidays. Why not? It’s a decision! A few of the reasons that we don’t enjoy the holidays is simply because we are reliving past holiday experiences. We are going over mental lists of what we previously happened. We are stuck in fear and wanting to change things. If we are holding onto regret we can be certain, it will prevent us from being in the energy of enjoyment. So with that being said, what things can we do to enjoy the holidays? Well let’s begin with a having a great attitude and a positive intention for all that we do.

“Wanting to be Safe”

Perhaps at times you have noticed your heart is racing while watching a movie or listening to a negative conversation. If this is your experience, you can be certain that you may actually be in a state of panic or fear. By regularly listening to the news or watching action-flicks may actually result in our subconsciously conditioning ourselves to experience a feeling of being out of control or unsafe. Just as we are influenced by television or commentary on the radio, imagine young children being in the room.

Moving forward begins with making a decision…

If there is one thing that we would like to change, it would be the notion that we can change something that has occurred in the past. Perhaps you may agree that if something occurred in the past, we can accept what happened and choose to begin moving forward. We can decide to change how we feel about the situation by letting go of wanting to be right. We can decide to change how we respond at a future time in relation to similar situations; although realistically we cannot change the past. In other words, we can’t change what has already occurred.

***What’s On Your Holiday List?

It seems by the time November 1st comes around everything is playing to the tune of “beat the clock.” The end-of-the-year has a lot to do with hustle and bustle. Businesses are trying to make plan so bonuses can be distributed. Retailers are promoting holiday sales by incenting people to shop at 4:00 in the morning in order to get the best savings. Because of the time of year, we may find ourselves getting caught up in this frenzy.

When the love is complete…

“When there are problems, if we would love more, they would disappear. When the love is complete, the problem dissolves immediately!” ~ Lester Levenson When the love is complete, always includes a positive resolution. There is no uncertainty. There is no ambiguity. There are no unresolved issues. Everything is in perfect harmony. We have all experienced this reality and yet often don’t realize that we created the difficulty and also its conclusion. Through our thought processes, we have the ability in any given moment to change our minds and experience a different result.

Would you like to feel good?

Pretty certain, most folks would love to feel good at all times, although many may think it’s not possible to always feel good. Ok, what’s right about feeling good? Feeling good encompasses many things… Perhaps it is working on an incredible project – getting involved – being inspired. Maybe it is a sound, like the evening rain gently caressing the window while you are sleeping. Maybe feeling good is being at your ideal weight or having a certain amount of money. And maybe, feeling good is the way life is meant to be at all times.

Year End Planning

The end of the year is quickly approaching. This is a time when many of us put unrealistic and often unhealthy expectations upon ourselves. If we perceive the year end as hectic, guess what… we get to be right because that is what we are holding in mind. When we are feeling pressured by time we are focusing on what’s wrong instead of enjoying all that we’ve accomplished throughout the year. We may also be focusing on the to-do lists, instead of looking forward to all of the good things that are forthcoming.

***What is the Secret You Have Been Missing?

Have you ever had the impression people know something you don’t? Have you ever had the thought some people have “inside”knowledge? Guess what? They do. The most interesting part about it is the so-called “inside” knowledge is very simple information. We all think in this technological age that information must be complicated, several hundred megabytes, or maybe even a gigabyte or two. Not so. The so-called hidden knowledge, the knowledge only a few seem to get to know, is very simple. Lester Levenson said, it is the simplest of simples.

***What is Stress?

Stress is anything that causes us to feel insecure. For the most part, we think stress is a normal part of life. Stress is actually resistance. Whenever we are struggling with something, we are feeding a part of ourself with negativity. We haven’t fully decided to move forward, to do, or not do something. We are playing a game called “What if this happens?” We are spinning in a web of fear. We are hoping someone will come along and make decisions for us so that we no longer have to deal with our current circumstances or the stress that we are experiencing.
