Mud slinging, and soap opera drama

I am amazed when I listen to the news about the candidates who want to run for president and the news coverage of the drama.

Seems that Hillary wants to sling mud and everyone talks about that. Then they turn sides and say what's wrong with Obama that he doesn't sling mud back? It's seen as weakness that he doesn't play as dirty as Hillary.


We've seen this aspect of politics forever and I am surprised that more of us are not just plain tired of it and demanding cleaner campaigns.


I turn on my TV and scroll through my options to find that most are violent in some manner or the other. People are either screaming at each other blaming them for what's wrong in the relationship, or sharing terrible secrets that shock and awe the audience.


Then there's reality TV where people are pitted against each other in order to win the prize at the end of the show.


Many ask why TV and movies are so violent these days and suggest that it influences our children to act in violent ways.


I suggest that TV and movie reflects the masses. It's because so many people love the drama, that's why they use it for amusement on TV and movie.


When people get to watch the intense emotional drama of others it helps them to forget their own drama. It also gives them a feeling of being part of the “drama tribe”. They can point out that this is normal, it's the way it is. Everyone experiences these same situations.


By immersing ourselves in this intense emotional drama and conflict all day long, we tend to be excited by the problems of others rather than dealing with our own lives and making choices which change our situations.


So many have a problem with the Law of Attraction saying it doesn't work and they don't understand that it's working alright. Just look around you. The more our society focuses on “reality” the more reality of the same genre we get.


All this starts with the individual and then builds up to include more and more people, each adding more drama to the world. Families, groups, states, nations, then the world join hands in creating and sustaining the drama of war, famine, poverty, and disease.


If we take it back down to it's lowest denominator, one person at the time, and change our thinking which changes our feelings, which in turn changes our “reality”, we then make a different type of impact on the world.


Each of us gets to choose the energy we put out to the world and what it attracts back. Are you part of the drama or part of the solution?


I tell my 14 year old daughter and 6 year old grandson when they disagree this very thing. You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution.

We are part of the problem, the drama when we enjoy conflict as entertainment, getting pleasure from the hardships of others. It might make you feel powerful for a few moments.. problem is though it's like an addiction. It takes more and more of it to maintain these false feelings of power and control.


I notice on line that the blogs that generally get the most hits are the ones where emotions are most inflamed. People want to jump right into an argument and add more wood to the fire.


We can continue this rather than joining together to create solutions for our world at our own peril.

If we join together in gratitude and thankfulness, love, harmony and oneness we can and will find new energy sources that don't pollute. We will discover that there really is more than enough of everything for everyone.

We will discover how working together in peace creates more peace.

We can change the world.. but first we must change ourselves.


Blessings,

Donna

Creatures of Habit

For centuries we have been creatures of habit out of necessity. It was important that mankind find a way to do things that worked easily to find food, water and shelter and continue doing it that way in order to survive.


Today it's in our genes, to create habits for ourselves that are repeated without thought.

We get dressed the same way each morning, put on the coffee, grab a bagel and run out the door.


It's amazing to me how easy it is to create a new habit.


Recently I broke my arm and it was really hard the first few weeks to do every day things. I had to stop and think now about how to get dressed, get coffee made and even had to learn to type with one finger of my left hand instead of the way I had done it for years.


After a month of doing things with thought before hand I managed to create new habits.

When the cast came off and I had just a brace I caught myself many times doing things automatically the same way I had done them while the cast was on. It's amazing just how quickly we get in a rut of doing things and just do it that way without any thought whatsoever.


We do the same things with beliefs. Beliefs are thoughts we think over and over until we just accept them as truth/fact and think no more about them. They become a habit.


While this may serve us well in an emergency life or death survival situation, it limits us in every other aspect of our life experiences.


While we are going through our day without any thought at all about what we are thinking and or doing, our mind is racing with thoughts that confuse, conflict and limit us.

This lack of consciousness gives way to constant thinking without awareness.


Lack of awareness keeps us doing and believing things and even creating situations which seem to confirm them, thus we don't stretch out and think or try something new.


After the cast was off my arm actually hurt when I stretched it out. It had stayed in one position for so long that it forgot how wonderful and easy it was to be at full length. I had to work with it many times a days slowly reaching forward and reminding it of it's full glory. The muscles had also gotten smaller, the skin had begun to shed and peel.


With renewed energy I worked the muscles in the arm to restore it to fullness and it worked with me to change.


Habits are easy to change and pretty quick too. The trick is realizing that you are living by habit, sort of like a robot without thought, or reason other than you've always done it that way.


Today do something in a different way. Think about what you are doing and why. Be open to the experiences of your day rather than just moving through them unconsciously. Throw open the doors and windows of your life and be aware of your life, your thoughts and your actions.


By asking yourself what am I doing and why am I doing it this way your give yourself pause to actually be present with each moment of your life experience.


Being present, being aware opens new doors and opportunities to create change and well being.


Today be aware of each step, each action and listen to your thoughts. They may need an overhaul too.


You can easily change from habit to awareness just by choosing to do so.


Make it a great day.

You Have the Power

You have the power


What if I were to tell you that you have the power right now to change how you feel?


That no matter what is going on in your life, no matter how unpleasant and unwanted your present circumstance might be, you DO have the power to not only change how you feel, but to change what is going on.


I know, I know, you're thinking that I just don't understand this hard place you are in right now. You have a right to feel angry, frustrated, discouraged.. and you are correct. You do have the right to feel bad, but as Abraham says, “why would you want to exercise that right”?


What if I were to tell you that what you are experiencing right now is mostly due to how you have been thinking and feeling for years and years?


Your thoughts and feelings work like a giant magnet attracting more of the same energy, experiences into your life over and over again.


As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.


Even the writers of the Bible knew the principles of co creating. You reap what you sow.

If you have ever planted a garden or a plant you saw that you don't get corn from a rose bush, you get roses from a rose bush and corn from a corn plant.

One plant also bursts forth with many roses or kernels of corn, you get more than you first sowed.


This is the natural order of growth. When we apply this to our thoughts we realize that thoughts bring forth a harvest of feelings in line with our thoughts. These feelings then bring forth a harvest of experience in line with the feelings.


Now for the exciting part, when you choose our thoughts in line with what and how you wish to feel, you set in motion the manifesting magnet to attract more of the same energy.


This always works, all the time, every time. You can't get around it. So, work with the principles

yo co create what it is that you really wish to experience.


I know that sometimes it feels really hard to shift emotions. Things just are not the way you want them to be. Ok, that's what you are experiencing right now. It's proof that the Law of Attraction is at work in your life. Use this as you inspiration to experiment with different thoughts and feelings.


What can you think differently so that you can change your feelings even a little bit.?


Perhaps you can find one thought that feels better? The exciting thing is once you find that first thought that feels better another better feeling thought comes more easily to you. Stay with that one a bit and an even better feeling thought comes your way.


See where I'm gong with this?


Just like one bad feeling thought gives way to an even worse feeling thought and state of mind.. good feeling thoughts grow and bloom, bringing a harvest of good feeling emotions which in turn bring about experiences in line with what you are thinking and feeling.


Play with it and enjoy the power that is yours to change how you feel and what you experience by choosing thoughts that feel good.


You'll soon see that you are indeed a powerful creator and you will smile.



Love yourself well,
Donna

What Are You Looking At?

What are you looking at?


I have a cat living with me who really inspired me this morning.

When I woke up he came at once to me meowing telling me he was out of food. Sure enough his food bowl was empty.

Funny thing though is that a forty pound bag of food was sitting a little bit away from his dish.


Sasha the cat wasn't interested in the bag of food, nor was he trusting me to put food in his dish and being patient about it. He saw that his bowl was empty and was upset about it.


My reminding him that I always feed him and he has never been without food didn't seem to make sense to him. All he knew was that he was out of food.

His focus was totally on what he didn't have, not faith in me to deliver food or the big bag of food sitting in the floor.


How often do we do the same thing? We are so focused on what we don't have, on what is not the way that we want it right now, that we don't stop to realize all the blessings that are right in front of us.


By placing all our attention on what is not the way we want it, we don't have much space in our conscious thoughts and or emotions for inspiration and divine action.


While we sit beside an empty bowl meowing over it being empty all our energy is used in complaining and being afraid rather than trusting in the goodness of LIFE and a full bag of food.


This last month I have dealt with a broken arm from falling off a fast moving horse. The first few days I was tempted to think in terms of what I couldn't do now that my arm is in a great big cast. Typing is more challenging and creating jewelry with one hand isn't easy. I have had to find new ways to do everyday things from getting dressed to cooking food.


While it has been challenging my focus has been on what I can do rather than on what I can not do. Rather than so much typing I started a video and audio blog. These are great fun and something I have been wanting to do.


I have helped my youngest daughter learn how to cook some of our favorite meals and we have worked together to clean the house. She has even learned how to ship customers purchases, getting her more involved in our internet based business.


I have also used this time to catch up on some of my reading and be more aware of my thoughts and emotions.


The principles of Law of Attraction teach us that our thoughts give way to emotions, emotions are like magnets drawing more of similar energy into our lives. What you pay attention to with your thoughts become your emotions which in turn is your attractor factor. This is what you ask for more of with your energy vibrations.


Knowing that we attract based on being vibrationally in line with experiences, and things, it makes sense that we pay attention to what we are looking at.


If your are presently experiencing situations that are not pleasant to you, use these as contrast to help you define what it is that you really do want.


If presently you don't want to continue in poverty, no relationship, or unfulfilling job... this is your point of inspiration.


Write down what you don't want. Be honest about it.

I don't want to be poor.

I don't want to be in a relationship where I don't feel loved and honored.

I don't want to work a job that isn't fulfilling.


From this point you are clear about what you don't want. You have a living example of it right now.

Jump over to giving details about what you do want, be clear, be honest.


I enjoy having money to live in a wonderful, safe and comfortable home.


I enjoy having money to eat out, gift my family, friends and charities.


I enjoy relationships based on love, respect, honor and good times. I am a wonderful friend and enjoy wonderful friends.


I enjoy a job that allows me to share my joy with the world, inspiring others to joy and fulfillment.

I enjoy following my passion and inspiration.


I love what Echart Tolle says about it, Accept where you are right now. If you are stuck in the mud, struggling only gets you covered in more mud. Accept the Right Now of your life and allow inspiration to come to you. You will be delightfully amazed at how easily life changes when you change what you are looking at.

Are you dreaming big enough? Goals and intentions


This morning I got this from Tut, The Universe,

"Through the night comes the light that brings the day.

Through your mind goes the thought that forms the clay.

And every single chance I get, Donna, in every single way I know, I'm pressing out all that I have to you in exactly the amounts you've imagined."

It got me thinking. How big are my dreams? Do I put a ceiling on them or do I go for the gold?

I have read about and seen movies showing that people who are "winners" thought like winners.

No matter how many times they failed, they always saw themselves as winning it big.

When athletes are training they not only practice in real time by running, hitting the ball, etc, they also practice it over and over again in their imagaination.

Science shows that the body doesn't know the difference between really doing something and imagining doing it. The body and mind react the same way.

When you see your dreams, are they of you always winning? Are you there in your dreams interacting? Do you feel and smell and touch your dream in your mind?

How big is your dream? Are you really going for the gold or are you holding onto limits?

Law of Attraction brings to us in proportion to our beliefs and expectations. Are you expecting big enough or are your beliefs in lack keeping you to just getting by?

Edison failed thousands of times before he finally got the light bulb to work. He commented that he now knew thousands of ways not to make a light bulb.

Dreaming big enough and not giving up are key to success. Take time several times each day to dream big allowing it to feel real and see yourself in the stage of fulfilment. The more you dream, the bigger your dream and the more real, the faster it comes your way so you can once again dream.

Climbing over your wall moving beyond limits

Climbing over your walls


Yesterday I went to a park to celebrate the birthday of a wonderful friend in Tae Kwon Do.

We had cake, pizza, chips and drinks.


There was a playground there with a wall for climbing, monkey bars, slides and bars for flipping.



As the children ran out to play I decided to join them. I wanted to see about the wall. I have never understood while people want to climb walls and rocks and wanted to check it out for myself.


As a youngster I would climb, jump, crawl anywhere, anytime. As I got older I began getting a bit wheezy about heights, so it was a challenge to myself to go past my fears and just do.


I began climbing the wall one step, one hand hold at the time. I finally reached the top and stayed there for a few minutes looking around and feeling pretty good about myself.

I slowly descended and when again on the ground held my arms up like Rocky and declared, “oh yea, I came, I saw, I conquered.”.


I went on to slide, and crawl through tubes and play on the monkey bar. This was a delightful experience for me, I felt just like a kid.


I went back to our group and asked several other “adults” to come play with me. One lady came and we went back to the wall. She said she was “afraid of heights” and didn't know if she could climb the wall. I told her I had done it and if I can do it, any one can.

She climbed to the top and then back down again. Another member of our group came over and asked me if I had climbed up and the over and down again on the other side.


No, I replied, I hadn't thought of that, so back up I went climbing to the top and staying there for a few moments to let my stomach settle itself. I swung on leg over and thought, how I'm committed, I have to go over.

I took a few deep breaths and swung the other leg over and began my decent into fame and glory.


I cried out, “I did it, I moved over my fear of heights”.


I was delighted as several adults in the park told me “good job”.


As I walked around people of all adult ages walked over to me and made statements telling me why they couldn't climb the wall, or go down the slide.


They had many different reasons for why they couldn't climb over the wall on the playground.


One lady said she was too old. I said you are never to old to play. She asked my age and when I told her I was 52 she stated that I couldn't be. I laughed and said I knew for a fact that I was cause I been counting birthdays for 52 years.


I realized something yesterday. One, a lot of adults stop playing because they are expected to. Mercy, the playground equipment is really undersized for most of us. I'm lucky to be 5' 2”, I only have to duck a bit or tuck my legs to do most things there.


Two, we don't believe we can any longer. We fill our heads with all the reasons why we can't flip anymore, or do cartwheels and we believe what we tell ourselves. We set up limits and walls and then use these as reasons for never moving past them.


Our reasons range for body aches and pains to being too old, not remembering how, we'll be too sore tomorrow, I don't want to look silly, etc.


The higher we build the walls and the more limits we create, the more likely we are to stop playing.


This is true for every aspect of our lives. Once we begin telling ourself what we can't do and why, the less likely we are to even attempt it.


I read somewhere years ago that the main reason most adults don't try something new is they are afraid of failing and looking silly. They are afraid that they will not be able to do it well on the first attempt. This fear of failing keeps them from even trying.


Today take a look at the walls in your life. One foot, one hand hold at a time climb up and sit at the top a moment. Take a few deeps breaths, then fling your legs over and climb down the other side. Celebrate your victory by doing a cartwheel or two.

Happiness is a Choice

Choose to Be Happy


Everything in life is a choice. No matter what the topic, choice is always there. Most of the time there are many choices about any particular topic that we encounter.


The gift of life is understanding it's all about choice and being aware that our choice creates our experiences.


At every given moment, in every experience choice is always there for you. It's the key to treasure house.


When you get up in the morning you begin making choices based on desires, expectations, beliefs and emotions.

You pick out clothing, decide coffee, tea or juice. You decide what to eat, where, when and how.


You continue making choices as you gear up for the drive to work or start your day of caring for home and family.


Your thoughts are always swirling about in your head, announcing your fears, joys, ambitions, limits, self image and projections of how the day will turn out.


As you become more aware of choices, thoughts, emotions all playing hand in hand in your life you can better pick and choose which ones to run with.


If you really do want to feel good and be happy today, you will choose thoughts, feelings, actions based on feeling good.


As you go through the day making decisions based on how you feel, your choices become much easier.

You choose your conversations wisely, you socialize based on your desired outcome. You shift your actions to be in line with your desires. Choices are seen as you best friend.


In real life how do choices work to our advantage? You already know through your experience how certain choices create certain outcomes. You are now armed with understanding and insight into how your thoughts, beliefs, expectations, feelings and outcome are all linked together.


Say your spouse, child, co worker brings a situation to you that you know already how it most likely will play out based on your experience, you now have the tools to change, shift and create anew.


Rather than choosing to argue, banter, or defend your stand, you take another road. You make your choices now on how you desire to feel throughout the day. Is it more important to you to feel good or be right?


While maintaining the desire of feeling happy today, each choice is made from the point of Being happy. It's a wonderful turn of energy. As you go through each interaction today choose to feel good, to be happy. If you find yourself back in the habit of defending yourself, arguing for your point of view, just shift back over to feeling good. From this vantage point making choices in line with being happy is much easier.


How you feel is not Dependant on what others are doing. Really, it isn't. It only depends on your choices to be happy. When how you feel is number one on your priority list, all else falls into place.

As you focus on being happy today you will being noticing how many other happy people come into your life. You will find the perfect parking space, the house work and office work will get done easily and with little resistance.


Only when we place our happiness in the hands of outside forces do we experience unhappiness. Take back your power to be happy, think happy, feel happy, act happy and happy will surround you all the day long.


When people in your life are determined to share their unhappiness with you, focus again on your thoughts and emotions. At this point you get to choose how and what to think and feel. Take a deep breath and gather your mental images. Get out of the habit of reacting to what others say and do. This is an endless loop. Get into a place of action based on how you want to feel and how you wish to experience your life.


The more you practice filtering all actions through the desire to be happy, the easier it gets and the more filled with joy your life becomes.


Start right now, choose to be happy.

Welcoming Help

Welcoming help


Throughout our lives we encounter many situations which are easier with help.


Thinking that you have to do it all by yourself is a long, hard row to hoe, as my grandmother used to say.


It's a trust issue.


When you don't feel comfortable letting others in your life and allowing their input and help from time to time, you deny yourself many magical miracles and make your life much harder than it has to be.


I like the Feng Shui concept of “helpful people'. These are your relatives, friends etc who are in your life to lift you up and encourage you to greater accomplishments.


In business we are aware that it's really challenging to make it all by ourselves. It's obvious that you need backers, buyers, employees, etc.


In our daily lives we also need a support system. People who tell us straight, encourage us to always aim higher and point out when we are being too closed off to the Universe.


Years ago I had an insight which changed my life. I had built walls around me to keep myself from being hurt. One day I understand that the same walls that prevented pain also kept out helpful, loving people and kept me locked inside the walls of distrust and limits.


I began chipping away at those walls and as people began pouring in and I began running outside the wall to play in other neighborhoods, I began to really grow.


By our nature we avoid pain and hurtful situations, problem is when we wall ourselves off we all avoid all the wonderful experiences as well.


When we open our lives up to others we encourage our own growth and wonderful experiences begin arriving in our lives.


As parents, business people, friends, mates, etc, we all need a hand now and then.


Here's to tearing down the walls and throwing a party for the world.


Happy Creating

Think Your Life Into Being

Think Your Life Into Being


Our mind is filled with racing thoughts every moment of the day. Trying to keep up with them would probably make us crazy.


While we don't want to try to control our many thousands of thoughts, awareness of the type of thoughts is necessary in order to work with the Law of Attraction to create the life of our dreams.


Thoughts attract more like energy, so if you are spending your day thinking about things that make you feel angry, unworthy, unattractive, poor, sick and sad, you are using the Law to attract more of the same.


Ever had one of those days when you got out of bed thinking how you would never get everything done? You felt overwhelmed at the start and had probably gone to bed thinking about all the many things you had to do. As you get up from sleep you stub your toe on the dresser and then realize you are out of toothpaste.


The energy takes a turn as you focus on this FEELING. That's the thing, thoughts become our feelings. Feelings begin their magic by attracting more of what we are thinking, feeling about.


While controlling every thought would be too time consuming a task, choosing our thoughts is easy and fun.


While still in bed begin to go over all the things you are thankful for. Name them out loud and allow yourself to really feel the gratitude.


Next pick out good feeling thoughts for your day. You choose your clothing with foresight, so do the same with your thought wardrobe.


What are you wanting to accomplish today? Choose thoughts that compliment these desires.


Throughout your day monitor what type of thoughts are running through your head. Don't try to control them, just be aware of what you are thinking and made a decision to shift gears when the thoughts don't line up with what you desire to feel and experience today.


As you interact with others be conscious of where your thoughts are going. If they tend to stray towards judgment, criticism, angry and frustration: grab a good feeling thought and stay focused on that until your feelings shift. Do this over and over during your day.


By consciously practicing thought monitoring and picking better feeling thinking you are creating a new habit of thought. This new thought habit will begin transforming your life into more of what you desire. This is a guarantee.


Practice the process of intending throughout your day and you will begin seeing magical transformations in your life.


Intending works like this, you decide ahead of time how you desire to feel and how you wish things to work out. Don't work on every little detail, that's not your job.

Your part is to intend your thoughts and feelings ahead of time.



Set yourself up for good feelings and good outcomes by planning to feel this way ahead of time.

For instance if you have a phone call to make. Decide before you pick up the phone that you will be pleasant, feel good, share this positive outlook with the person on the other end of the phone and the call will have a positive outcome.


With all your interactions with people go through this process of planning ahead, placing your intentions before you begin the activity. You will be so amazed at how easily things work out.


The Law of Attraction always works, every time, for every one and everything.

Your thoughts become feelings.

Feelings become things.

Pick in accordance to your desires.


You are the attracting magnet for your life. Being aware of thoughts and feelings provides a smooth road to the life of your dreams, every time.

Appreciation: Acts of Kindness

The dictionary gives this definition for appreciation: gratitude; thankful recognition.

What power and freedom is in the act of appreciation.
The attitude of deeply feeling grateful for people and conditions in your life opens the floodgate for more of the same.

It also lifts the countenance of all those around you. There was a report done that showed when acts of kindness were done that the giver and the receiver at once felt good: what is even more incredible is that the same thing happened to those who witnessed the act.

Our bodies create a "feel good chemical" when we engage in acts of kindness, receive them or even witness them. This is so powerful that once we really understand the possibilities we can change the world.

Just think for a moment of a world where people are being kind to each other. Think about the chemical affects on each person as they act with kindness, receive kindness and witness kind acts.

This natural high of good feelings would reach further and further affecting more and more people, filling them with a sensation of kindness as well.

Imagine kindness and appreciation catching on and spreading throughout the land.
Just think how powerful this would be. If each of us decided to act with appreciation and offer acts of kindness to all we come in contact with we could in fact change our world.

Simple things like saying Thank you offer appreciation and the energy of feeling good to all you meet.
Telling the people in your life how talented, loving, and how much they mean to you creates an environment where kindness grows.

When you are in the check out line at the store, take a moment to appreciate the person helping you to make your purchases.

As you drive down the road be aware of opportunities to be kind: let someone get in front of you, smile, offer blessings as you go down the road.

I read recently that "to bless means to give it your best energy, your highest thought, your grandest wish. You send a thing good energy when you bless it. This is something physical that you are doing, not merely
conceptual or philosophical."

As you go through your day at home, work, shopping, driving through traffic: remember to appreciate, to be kind, to bless all you come in contact with.

To appreciate you must bless; you must offer your grandest, highest thought of well being and goodness. This is always followed with acts of kindness, which have the power to change the world.

Lift up each person today with your highest thought, see the Divine within each, that spark of love and light that always burns within each created being.

Allow yourself to feel love and move in appreciation and follow with actions of kindness.

When each of us dares to live a life where appreciation and kindness are standard each and every moment of the day, we then, change the world and greater yet: we change ourselves.

You will know when your feelings of appreciation are genuine by the washing of love and positive energy that suddenly flows through you and touches those around you.

Appreciate each moment and each person with acts of kindness and lift the world to the highest place where love and joy reign.

Who Do I Want To Be

Who do I want to be?

Sounds like a silly question, but when you think about it, you must be the person who experiences the life you dream of.

How can you experience abundance unless you are the person experiencing it?

How can you experience health unless you are the healthy person?

An inner shift of self status must take place in order to you to experience outwardly anything.

As long as you are seeing yourself as the person who struggles, who isn’t loved, who is overweight, who is lonely, you will continue to be that person.

Think back to when you were a little child and the world was your oyster.
You believed in all possibilities. You thought you could fly, grow up and be superman or cat woman.
You believed in the magic of Santa and the Easter bunny. You knew the magical powers of imagination and you played with it each moment.

How do you go back to that magical knowing?

In order to know a thing you must experience it.

If you wish to experience kindness, be the person who does the act of kindness.

If you wish to be the person who experience love, then be the loving person.

If you wish to be the brave person then step into your fear and be the act of courage.

If you wish to be wealthy and experience abundance, live abundantly.

Be the person today that you wish to be.

Make a choice and Be.

Love and Gratitude,
Donna

Foundation of Beliefs, Core to your LIfe

Foundation of Beliefs, Core to Your Life

What am I made of is a question little children often ask their parents.
We generally answer bones, blood, skin, cells and brain.

At our very core we are the beliefs which we hold onto so tightly.

We are programmed with many beliefs about ourselves; our world, work, GOD, relationships, money and even love from the time we are born.

These core beliefs dictate our lives each and every day. These are the subconscious thoughts that move energy in a steady and constant flow creating and attracting more of the same energy vibration.

You will notice that your life flows in a similar direction, steady and regular. Relationships with people, money, health, all follow a pattern.

This pattern is the result of your inner programming.

When we seek change in our outer world we often fall prey to the illusion that simply changing our words and working harder will produce the desired changes.
Seldom does this happen because our inner program is still running amuck.

To simple apply lip service to a changed outer expression of life brings about frustration and even anger.

We must go deeper if we are to really experience a changed life.

Begin by identifying your core beliefs about life and how life works for you.

Hints are all around you in the form of your experiences.

What is going on in your life right now that is a repeat of all that has happened before?

If you are struggling with bills then examine your beliefs about money; trace them back to the roots.
Do you believe that you must work hard, work more hours to get ahead?
Do you believe that life is hard and a constant struggle?

If you have problems in relationships take a look at your relationships with your parents, siblings and even grandparents.

If you deal with health issues look around for the messages about well being in your past.
Do you feel like you get more attention by being sick? Was someone in your family sick often and you adopted the idea that this is a way to get people’s focus on you?

How do you see yourself?
Who do you believe yourself to Be?

Your self-image controls your thoughts, emotions and actions that in turn continue to attract the same type of experiences over and over again.

Do you see yourself as the person who struggles for abundance, love and acceptance?
Do you see yourself as the person who is successful, love and appreciated?

The answer to these questions opens the window to who you see yourself to be.

Once you have an understanding of the foundation upon which you have built your life you can begin remodeling it and build your life with a truer foundation of thought and expectations.

Begin the process with some word association.

Fill in the blanks.
Life is______________
Love _________________
People_______________
Money______________
In order to be successful _____________________
My family _________________________
My Friends_________________

You get the idea. By going through your cliches about life and relationships you begin to see a clear picture of the beliefs which rule your life.

After you have spent a while doing this go back and ask yourself if this belief actually works to your best interest.
Is this belief moving you towards your goals?

Does this belief foster a kind and loving life experience?


How can you change your core beliefs?

First you must know and accept what your beliefs are. You have to be honest with yourself about the foundation on which you have built your life.

Beliefs are strong and hold on tightly. The ego doesn’t like to let go of old memories, emotions, and expectations.

By being honest about what you believe and why you bring light to your old wounds and begin to see how your expectations are repeated in one experience after another. Your foundation of beliefs proves itself true to you throughout your life.

When you are honest about what you believe and why you can then begin to form new ideas and beliefs.

I prefer ideas, as it’s much easier to change these and update them later. Ideas don’t struggle to stay in power like beliefs do.

Take you beliefs one by one and examine them for workability. If they are aiding you in getting where you want to go in life, then by all means keep them.
However, if you sense that they are limits, then reform them into something that better represents what you desire.

For example, if you identify a belief that life is hard then you can reshape it into “life flows easily and moves me from one positive experience to another”.

From here you can begin expressing a more positive expectation of your life situations. When we see each experience as an opportunity for understanding, growth and renewal of energy, each experience is exciting.

This process will not happen overnight. It took you years of practice to get where you are in your life beliefs and will probably take more than a few weeks to change.
Be patient with yourself.
Be honest about your emotions, beliefs and actions.
You are developing new habits of thoughts.

Build gently your new foundation and enjoy each experience and the opportunity for growth it brings.

Power of Love

The Power of Love


I was listening to an audio this morning called, “Zero Limits”.
I have to tell you I was blown away by the information.

There is this guy in Hawaii who heals people without ever seeing them.
He does this by healing within himself what is wrong in the other person or situation.

This is a very simplified explanation, it’s much more and much deeper than this short blog will explain.

What it boils down to is taking full and complete responsibility for everything and everyone who comes into your life.

Whatever it is that you know about, think about, feel about, learn about.. you are responsible for it.

I know this is big.. but it’s also very powerful.

Just think.. if every thought and feeling you have affects not only you, but the whole world.. Wow.. see why I was blown away?

Each and everything that I know about I am responsible for. I also have the power to change it through love.

This is the exciting and fun part.

Put simply you say these four things every time you think, feel or experience anything that is not pleasant or to your liking.

I love you
I’m sorry
Please forgive me
Thank you


I’ve been doing this for about 5 hours and am amazed at the changes in me. I feel so much lighter and filled with joy.

I did it for my home, my children, my business, my friends.

All the Ancient Ones have always taught that every thing is alive and connected. We have forgotten this for the most part.

This teaching empowers and enlightens you to better thinking and state of Being.

Try it for today and see what a difference it makes in your life.

When thinking about a problem, anything that bothers you say out loud to yourself,

I love you
I’m sorry
Please forgive me
Thank you



Love gratitude joy
Donna

I love you
Thank you

Changing your life with joy

Changing your life with joy



Have you ever wondered why it is that so many people just aren’t happy?

Doesn’t it seem strange that so many of us are putting off being happy until something happens?

I listen to people talk and say things like; wow, when I get that new job, car, home, lover, more money, clothes, etc. etc.; I will be so happy.

What’s wrong with being happy right now in this moment?

Why is it that most adults just can’t seem to feel joy without something happening?

It’s like we are addicted to happenings and have forsaken joy for joy’s sake.

I watch little babies and toddlers and am amazed at how joyful they are. For the most part they are in an almost constant state of joy. They smile without reason, and giggle with delight over the light fixture hanging overhead.

Babies remind us of a basic wisdom, joy just in being.

Some people say to me; what do I have to be happy about? After that question they go on to communicate a long list of what is wrong in their lives.

Here is the key difference between those who are joyful and those who are not.

What are you focused on in you life?

Do you fill your day with gratitude for all that you already have rather than moaning over what you don’t have?
Do you go on and on about aches and pains, bills, relationships or lack thereof?

There’s a cycle of unhappiness that we need to break in order to change our lives. You knew long ago how to be happy for happiness sake. You felt the joy of connection to Spirit and all of Creation. You didn’t focus on what you didn’t have; you just basked in the beauty of the moment and the thrill of being alive.

Think back to the days of youth when you passed many hours watching the animal parade in the clouds. You rode your bike for hours in a state of bliss. You built forts with sticks and vines and imagined yourself a knight or Robin Hood.
You listened to music and were swept into a state of joy and oneness by the music.

You can feel this way again by tapping into gratitude for your life.

I just recently took my studio totally apart. I had furniture and boxes spread out over two rooms while I replaced carpet and washed walls.
I spent a week sweating and panting as I moved heavy objects and put down carpet.

During this long and sweaty process I worked 10 hours a day for a week moving out and putting back. I washed each item before replacing it in my studio. I thrilled at finding things that I had forgotten I had and bringing them to the light.

This morning as I came into my studio I was delighted at the new look of my studio. I did a little dance of joy for the ability to physically move all these around. I thanked my mind for it’s creative ability and my body for its strength and power.

Gratitude feels my soul as I enjoy my computer, move about my home, enjoy the feeling of a hug from my daughter. There is so much to be grateful for each moment of each day.
I find that where gratitude goes, joy flows. This flow of gratitude and joy is the creative energy to bring more to feel about.

Knowing that the law of attraction works to attract more of what we are focused on, it only makes sense that we practice being happy.

This is a simple process of shifting gears and changing thoughts. Line your thoughts and statements up with what you do want.

Spend a few moments throughout the day with thought shifter statements. A few of the thought shifter statements that I use are;

I AM so happy and joyful to be alive.

I AM so happy and grateful for this wonderful mind and body that allows me to enjoy touch, taste, sound, and movement.

I AM so happy and grateful for my family and friends and the love we share.

I AM so happy and grateful for my home and utilities.

I AM so happy and grateful for my computer, my internet, my ability to type and share with friends all over the world.

I AM so happy and grateful for Love, prosperity, abundance, joy, laughter, giggles, and all the smiles shared with others.

Taking time and attention to be in the now, this present moment, and saying thank you for all these little things opens us up to bigger blessings.

Don’t put off being happy, go ahead, BE happy right now.

Fill yourself up with joy. Take time each day to focus on all the beauty in your life, and you will find yourself surrounded by more and more beauty.

The act of gratitude opens the floodgate to blessings and joy. You will find that your cup does indeed run over with love.

I AM so happy and grateful for you reading this.

Thank you,

Waiting for your dreams

Waiting for your dreams

So you’ve been reading all about the law of attraction and waiting for it to kick in and change your life, right?

Now you feel stuck and frustrated that it’s not happening for you right?

You got all excited when reading the books and watching the movies and swirled around doing the dance of joy for a few days or weeks.

But today, you feel like it isn’t working and you want to know why.

Do you have your vision board up? Are you taking time throughout the day to read your affirmations? Are you playing in your imagination and putting yourself in the scene of your new life?


Often times we get really excited about the law of attraction and our dreams and run with this powerful energy until we are exhausted and feel disappointed.

You didn’t wake up this morning in your new home. Your new car isn’t in the garage. You bank account isn’t filled with millions, yet.

This is the most important stage of creation. You are in the germination period. Your field is plowed and planted with wonderful seed. They just haven’t come up yet.

This is the time when you really need to hold on to your vision. Go ahead and feel the way you think you’ll feel when you do have all the things on your vision board.

If our dreams were a garden, we wouldn’t go dig up the seed every few days to check on the progress. We know how devastating this would be.

We wouldn’t stop eating until the harvest came in either. WE would continue to eat and enjoy our daily life while feeling good about the new crop of veggies growing in the garden.

This is the point at which you are right now. You know you’ve planted the seed. You know the seed are good. You know you deserve a good harvest and anticipate the bounty.

Just as you wouldn’t put off eating until the garden came in, don’t put off living your life joyfully while your creations are en route to you.

Think for a moment how you will feel in that new home, car, or job. Ah, that’s good.

Are you living each day with this energy? Are you allowing yourself to enjoy the home you are now in? Are you keeping it as clean and orderly as you plan to keep the new one?

How bout your car? Do you thank it each time you get in and drive it? Are you keeping it up, keeping it clean?

Are you doing your very best at your present job? Are you smiling and laughing while working?

Go ahead and be happy right now. Don’t put off feeling good and enjoying your life waiting for it to “happen”. That’s the quickest way to slow it down.

Get up each morning and feel the joy of the day. Anticipate good things flowing into your life. Can you feel them? Feels good.

Do some weeding while waiting

While waiting for my garden to break the soil and begin the process of making a harvest I do the weeding. I pull out by the roots all the weeds and unwanted grasses. This makes it much easier for the baby plants to grow and be abundant with produce.

Use this time to weed out stray thoughts and beliefs about limits in your life.
While waiting you can sift through your thoughts and feelings and be real picky about what’s going on inside your head.

You might also add some fertilizer during this germination time. Read another really good book about law of attraction. Go watch that movie that really inspired you.

Pile up the good feeling thoughts as though they are mulch in your garden. Mulch keeps the weeds down and the moisture in the soil.

Don’t pull the plants out by the roots and give up. Stay focused on your dreams and goals. Stay grateful, stay happy.

Make the garden, which is your life, sturdy with good thoughts and good feelings.


The most important thing during this time of creation is to live your life. Don’t put off being happy, creative, until “you arrive”. This slows the process of germination.

Live each moment of each day as joyfully as you know you will when your dreams are manifested.


Live it that way right now.

Law of Attraction in Action

Law of Attraction in Action

Do you know what you really, really want? Are you clear on the details or thinking in general terms?

The more specific you are in your goals, the more likely you are to hit them. It’s like an archer aiming at a bull’s eye. Only by looking at the target and aiming for it is he likely to hit it.

This knowing what you really want is the result of passion connecting to your dreams. Do you feel passionate about your desires?

Most people want money, lots of money. What do you want to do with money? When people tell me they really, really want lots and lots of money, I get the image of Scrooge sitting in a vault counting and playing with all the coins. Is this what you want money for?

Do you see where I’m going with this? If you only have a general idea of what you want, you get general results. However if you are specific then your results are more specific.

If money is your goal, take it a step further this week. Sit down and think about what you want to DO with the money. Get specific. Experiment a little bit. Say you found a new dress, computer, etc. that you really want. Hold onto this image and put yourself in the dream. See yourself wearing the dress on a date, to work, twirling around and laughing, having fun.

If it’s a computer you want, then imagine sitting with your fingers on the keyboard typing. Imagine surfing the net with ease and joy.

The point is that the more specific you are about what you wish to attract the easier and faster the attraction manifests.

Write down what you want this week. Be very specific, go into lots of details. Include how you feel with this new treasure in your life. Spend a few minutes several times a day playing with these images in your imagination. Be open to inspiration and opportunities to let the flow of abundance into your life.

Be aware that some action on your part is needed most of the time to attract your desires. The most important action is being clear about what you want and why you want it. You may feel inspired to do other things, be open to all possibilities.

Someone told me the other day that they had everything they needed in their life. They were thankful for all their needs being met and happy with their state of affairs. I thought to myself that while I am very grateful for my life and all the many blessings in it, I still have many expectations.

Don’t close the windows and doors of your life to abundance and joy. There is so much in this world to smile and laugh about. What wonderful adventures will you attract to yourself today?

Be Happy,
Donna DeVane

Looking Ahead

Looking Ahead

The other day my five-year-old grandson was hit in the eye with a stick. It tore his cornea and he required surgery to repair the eye. Throughout the process I keep seeing and thinking of him whole, healed, and happy.

During the process to repair his little eye, we had many turns and twists in the road which I watched with fascination. As I held the picture of the right doctor in my mind a series of events unfolded which amazed me.

A friend called me early the morning after the accident and told me of a show she had watched where a doctor in my hometown had built a robotic eye for a child and restored his sight.

Next my neighbor gave my youngest daughter a card from her doctor who is also her son in law. Guess who this doctor is? You got it; he is the doctor from the TV show.

I called and we got an appointment the next day. Less than 24 hours later my grandson was in surgery having his eye repaired by one of the best eye surgeons in the country.

Hundreds of people joined me in seeing my grandson healed, and his vision restored. The energy was so wonderful; it was like a bubble around his whole little body.

While dealing with what is, we kept our vision on what we really desired and it manifested. There was no way that healing could not come, many of us agreed that this was reality and so it was.

The Law of Attraction works every time, all the time. The Secret is what are we focused on and how do we feel about our focus. During this past week I have surrounded myself with people who are able and willing to look ahead to what we do want.

I am amazed and so grateful today that by Law Of Attraction, we have worked with The Secret to bring about our heart’s desire and my grandson is whole, happy and enjoys seeing this beautiful world.

Smiles,
Donna

Living My Life Like Its Golden

Living my Life, Like its Golden

The other day I was watching some TV when a commercial came on. A lady was singing the theme song for the new show. The words were, “Living my life like’s it golden”. She sang these words several times to a rather catchy tune. I found myself smiling at the idea of living every moment of my life like it’s golden. Actually my life is golden, although I may not live every moment of it that way. I started thinking how would one live each moment as though it were a treasure. I thought about how little children live, so in the moment, full of laughter, joy and adventure, that sometimes I envy them.

I decided to “become as a little child” where my life is concerned. I will laugh more, smile most of the time just because it feels good to do so. I will run barefoot through the grass and the mud and giggle with delight. I will lay on my back and watch the animal parades in the clouds at least several times a week. I will eat my dessert first and if there is still hunger, have the main course.

I will greet the new morning with anticipation of all great things coming to me this day. I expect goodness and joy and it comes through for me time after time. I will set aside my preconceived notions of how people and the world “should be” and will greet each experience with a sense of awe and joy.

I will trust my intuition more and go with the gut feeling into new adventures and possibilities. I will play and then play some more, if there is time at the end of the day and I feel inspired to, I will do a bit of work.
I will trust Source more and let go of trying to control others. I will rejoice in the beauty of life, the song of wonder in a child’s giggle and join in, celebrating my Golden Life.

Living my life like it’s golden,
Donna

Between Asking and Getting

Between Asking and Getting

We have many wants, new cars, homes, money, relationships and love, just to name a few. We don’t run out of things and experiences to want for, to ask for. Wanting and asking are the really easy parts of our creating process. How to actually get what we are wanting is what we all want to know how to do.

Let’s cover some basic steps in working with the Law of Attraction. First we want. Our wants are generally based on a natural need and desire for creature comfort. We all want a comfortable home, trusty car, health, love, food and money.
When we don’t have these things in the quantity or quality that suits us we are aware of our wanting. We say out loud and to anyone who will listen that we want something. Our awareness of lack in our lives gives us opportunity to express a desire for something we do want.

The other day I had a unique experience of understanding the in between time .. that time between asking and getting. I awoke early with pain in my back. Now this made me realize that I really wanted to experience wholeness in my body. I was more aware of my desire for health and a good feeling back as I walked down the steps bent over. I went into the kitchen and took two Advil. My expectation was that the Advil would relieve the pain in my body. I swallowed them down with a cup of coffee and went off to the office to read email. I realized in just ten minutes or so that my back was perfect. I was experiencing perfection in my body.

I didn’t even think about the process of how the Advil worked, I didn’t pester it, checking on it’s progress or directing it’s movement in my body. I didn’t think about it as I sat reading email and smiling, feeling good about my life. At this point I had one of those “AH Ha” moments. I realized that between asking and getting is expecting. I expected the Advil and my body to work together to bring about the condition which I expressed a desire for. I know that my body’s natural state is health, anything other than that is not normal for me.

This place of “knowing” is the between asking and giving part of creating. I know that my body is perfect, right now. Any sign of discomfort is outside what is normal for me. So asking for my body to return to it’s normal state is very believable for me. This principle applies to others acts of creation as well. If I ask for more money, but deep down inside my ‘knowing’, my belief, is that money is hard for me to come by.. then that is what I continue to create.
I read a while back that we don’t get what we ask for, or what we want; rather we get what we expect. If my expectations, my beliefs are on lack, then lack is what I expect and what I attract over and over again.
The key is to identify your beliefs about your health, money, relationships, etc and work on changing these core values, your expectations.

Begin by identifying what you do believe and expect in life. In a notebook begin a page titled “What I believe”.
On the first line write About my body. Now off the top of your head begin to write down the things that come to you. Write quickly, don’t think, just write.
Continue until you feel you have covered your thoughts on your body.
Go to another page and write What I believe about money. Continue this exercise with as many subjects as you can think of. For example you can pages on love, relationships, children, jobs, parents, friends.
Each day go over what you have written and begin a new page with your belief system.

If you wrote on the About my body page that it’s fat, sick, tired, ugly. Then write My body is perfect right now. My body knows how to heal itself and does so constantly. All the cells of my body work in harmony to restore balance and wholeness.

If you wrote that money is hard to come by, there is never enough, etc, then proceed by writing something similar to… There is abundance everywhere. I am always surrounded by abundance. Prosperity and well being are natural for me.

What you are in the process of doing is changing your core beliefs into beliefs that will attract what it is that you really want in your life. This is the fastest and easiest way to create and attract what you really want. If you are not aware of the core beliefs in your life then you will experience frustration and aggravation trying to create something you don’t really believe in. It’s not just a matter of saying positive things and thinking positive things, although these activities will eventually point out to you that you don’t really believe what you are saying, they will not change your expectations.
It’s like wanting to be healthy and telling yourself that your body is created to be perfect… BUT a lot of my family members suffered this same affliction. You cancel out the positive thoughts with the core belief. The core belief is where the power is.

We all have reprogramming to do in our lives. We have adopted many beliefs without even thinking about them since childhood. Some of the all time favorites are
life is hard wow, do we really want life to be hard?
No pain no gain, horrible thought. Why do I want to hurt in order to be successful?
I don’t have a money tree in the backyard. Money doesn’t grow on trees. Tell that to the people with all the big bucks who trade in trees, let’s see paper companies, lumber companies. LOL you get the idea.
Sickness runs in families. Drug companies and doctors really love this one, it keeps them in business.

When we identify our core beliefs we are then able to shift them to beliefs that are more in line with what we really want. Remember, beliefs are your expectations about life and how it works. Your expectations are what you continually attract more of to yourself. By being aware of and working to change your beliefs, you change your expectations and change your life.
