    Resolving competing thoughts

    For more visit www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com  There you'll find a link to reserve a free coaching session, links to my books, blogs and more. With this podcast I'm employing the spiritual tool of acceptance to, at least in part, resolve the apparent conflict between believing the present moment is all that exists, and the past and future are "real".  What I've come away with is I choose when and how I engage in the world of the mind which includes time and differentiation, and when I choose to be at peace experiencing being ONE. I like being able to pick the perspective I engage in at the present moment.  I can choose the dualistic world created by the mind (which includes the mind creating time) or I can choose to be at peace, experiencing all that exists.   I find growing acceptance of the idea that time only exists when my mind chooses to create it.   I can choose when and how to engage with my mind.

    Joy Wisdom and Energy

    For more visit www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com.   There you can reserve a free coaching session, find links to books, blogs and more.  The featured book for this podcasgt is "Creation, the how and the why".  The more we understand how and why we create the greater mastery we have over our life. My life makes sense when I understand, accept and relate to the fact that my will has directed my mind to create experiences where I have maximum joy, wisdom and energy.  This makes perfect sense to me.  I seek out partiipation in activities where I have those experiences.   The joy I have on the tennis court when I hit a great shot keeps me coming back.  I feel myself "light up". The wisdom and energy I experience when I'm coaching is "off the charts". I love writing books that give me and others greater mastery in our life, wisdom. We all have experiences that "float our boat", make life worth living, put us into the flow.  All we need do to recognize what experiences our will has directed our mind to create is to take notice of what we're most motivated to do.  Once we're clear on that, we can make our life more of what we want it to be; have greater mastery of our life.

    Reducing doubt

    For more visit www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com. There you can reserve a time for a free coaching session, find links to my books, blogs and more.  I'm featuring the book, "Believing in Ourself the Masterf Skill".  The more we believe in ourself the less self doubt we have. Trying to eliminate or deny self doubt is a losing proposition.  Accept that there are thoughts of doubt in our mind and we have the ability to choose to act on them or not.  Go back through your life and take note of all we've accomplished inspite of the doubt that existed at that time.  If we achieved our objectives inspite of doubt once, we can do it again.  In fact, if we're honest with ourself, we see that we have repeatedly succeeded in spite of doubt.  The more we remember what we brought to bear to achieve past accomplishments, the more self confidenced we have in our capacity to rise to the current challenges in our life. Through persistence, I've accomplished and created a great deal that I once thought was beyond my ability.  I draw on those experiences to encourage myself to keep working on rising to the current challenges I've created in my life.  Every attempt, even though it may look as though it failed miserably, increased my belief in myself and my determination grew stronger.  My resolve to keep trying grows stronger.

    Thoughts worthy of being adopted

    For more visit www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com. There you can reserve a free coaching session, links to my books, blogs and more. Today I'm featuring my most recent book, "Creation, the how and the why".  It goes into depth about how and why we create our world, including how we can change the world we create in an instant. Just as there were thoughts that the world is flat and the sun revolves around the earth, there are thoughts in our society today that are false.  Just as in the past it was necessary to have a greater acceptance of the truth to move forward, so it is today.  There are truths that will have the same or grater level of acceptane as the earth is round has today.   One thought is "The present instant is the only time that ever exists.  The past and future only exists in our mind in the present moment, in the moment we are thinking about them". The reason the idea "being present" is as popular as it is today is because only in the presdent do we experience love, joy and peace.  They are our true immutable nature. Another thought that will be gaining greater acceptance is "we create the world in the present moment with our mind".  Whenever we change our mind, our world changes instantly.  Whenever we learn something new, our mind and world change instantly. Another thought that will be more widely accepted is that we are all ONE.  Because we are ONE, what we do to anyone, we do to ourself.   I believe these thoughts will gain increasing acceptane because accepting them is accepting the truth.  We need to align with the truth to progress in life personally and as a society. Be an early adopter of truth to grow in your expeience of vitality, love, joy, peace and wisdom.

    Resonate Energy - being vitally alive

    For more visit my website, www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com.  There you can book a free coaching session, find links to my books, podcasts, blogs and more.  Today's featured book is "Healing Ourself, Healing the World".  We are the world, so of course as we heal ourself we heal the world. Everyone wants to experience more of being vitally alive. We seek out relationships, activities, books and more that we anticipate will result in us being more vitally alive.  What creates that experienced is different for everyone, and yet the essence of being vitally alive is the same for all of us. The more vitally alive we are, the more we resonate the experience of being vitally alive in others.  One great example of this is when we enjoy giving a speech, we can be certain the audience is enjoying the speech as well.  The same is true of my podcasts.  The more inspired and uplifted I am, the more the listeners experience being inspired and uplifted. When I talk about and promote win/win thinking I feel vitally alive.  That's why I do that.     Get clear on what supports you in being vitally alive and do that.  You'll inspire others the find and participate in what makes them experience being vitally alive, in the flow.

    Leaning on spiritual principles

    For more visit my website, www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com.  There you can book a free coaching session, find links to my books, blogs and more.   Today's featured book is "Paradox, the road to mastery".  We've created duality in order to experience more of who we are and what we're capable of.  In order to have experiences, we need to have duality.  That duality gives rise to paradox when we see that heads and tails are all part of the same coin. There are times when I've created difficult challenges for myself.  Today is one of those days.  The negative thoughts that give rise to negative emotions are prevalent in my mind today.  I find myself acknowledging that I've created these negative thoughts so I could overcome them by honest acceptance of what is true.  One of my favorite phrases is, "the solution to every problem is a greater acceptance of what is true".  What's true, in my mind at least, is that I've created every problem and challenge in my life and I have the power to resolve or heal every problem in my life.    I desire to be consciously accepting of the love, respect, value and joy that exist within me.  I know with great enough acceptance of these desires, they will be created by my mind in what I experience as the physical world.   I wrote the book, "Utilizing engagement in the physical world as a tool for spititual growth" to shed more light on how our mind creates our world.  I instantly create my desires with my mind when there are no conflicting thoughts.  AND, I have lots of conflicting thoughts to resolve. Big goals bring with them big challenges.  Big challenges require us to bring forth big capabilities within us to rise to those challenges.  For many decades I've wanted to "make the most" of my life.  That's resulted in big challenges, great joy, great sorrow and a rich and vast array of experiences.  Understanding this helps me get through the tough times.

    Building self confidence

    For more visit www.thoughtcoachingbyscott.com. There you can book a free coaching session focused on increasing self confidence.  Also available on the web site are links to my books, blogs and more.  The current featured book is "Believing in ourself the master skill".  Self confidence is believing in ourself. Every achievement increases our self confidence.  We all have achieved some things in our life.  As we reflect on our achievements we see we persisted, we learned from past mistakes, and ultimately we found we have what it takes to accomplish whatever we're committed to.   I've taken on the goal of advancing win/win thinking to the point that it is the dominant thinking in the world.  I'm making progress.  Because I've achieved things that were important to me in the past, it is easier to believe I'll succeed at this as well.
