2024 - Week 25 - What I Believe (Replay)
NOTE: IF YOU NOTICED THE BLOOPER, EMAIL ME WITH WHAT I DID AND I'll send you a CARD DECK FOR YOU OR AS A GIFT. (FOR THE 1st three people)
This episode is a replay of Week 51 from 2023, What I BelieveAround this time I start to review my year and check in with what is important to me.
I’m thinking about how I have been spending my time and how I want to spend my time in the future.
Asking questions helps me stay focused. Am I sharing my T.A.G.S. - Talents, Abilities, Gifts, Skills, to the best of my abilities? An important question is - have my beliefs and philosophies changed?
The excerpt that I’m sharing this week from my book/ebook/audiobook, Why Struggle? Life is too short to wear tight shoes, is part of the about this book section. In this part of the book I share my life philosophies.
I hope you enjoy it!
About this Book
It’s been about 23 years since Why Struggle? The book was published.
The initial book was a very important part of my personal and spiritual growth, just as this new endeavor for the e-book and audio book continues to allow me to Learn, Evolve, and Grow (LEG). My personal beliefs and life philosophies are the same, and I’ve added a few more since I’ve lived a lot more life.
My beliefs and life philosophies are:
• Be Loving. Love is the most powerful, healing, transformative power. Being loving is the answer to most situations.
• Be Truthful. I must find my personal truth and what brings me joyand peace.
• Move forward. Everything happens for a reason. Many times I willnever know why specific things happen, I must move forwardanyway.
• Be Forgiving. Learn to forgive myself and others, quickly. There areno mistakes – only learning experiences.
• Be Open. I am a student and teacher in the school of life. Teachersare everywhere, and I must be an open and willing student at alltimes. Usually, when I am the “teacher” I learn way more than Icould ever teach.
• Order is a natural law. Everything happens in divine order.
• Be Calm. Calm and chaos are both mental choices, I can choose differently at any time.
• Be Easy. Life is about timing and FLOW (Feeling Loving Open Willing). I am learning to get out of the way more.
• Be One. We are all interconnected because we are one.
• LEG. My main purpose is to Learn, Evolve, and Grow (LEG) as much as I can. Everything else will fall into place.
• Be Still. Time in silence and having spiritual practices such as meditation, radical forgiveness, journaling and tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique) are essential for my overall well-being.
• Trust my PGS. My Personal Guidance System (PGS) will lead, guide and direct me when I relax and get still enough to hear its directions.
Who knew in 1999 I would be teaching meditation classes and be that lady that might say to you...“I have a message for you.” There is no way on earth I would have had that insight back then. It all started with questions and wanting answers. It all started with wanting to live a better life. It all started with simply not wanting to struggle. Struggling is a choice. Life is what you decide it will be regardless of the emotions you experience. I have learned that taking time to be still helps me get clear and make better choices.
I’ve learned to ask important questions to help me continue to move forward in life. How do I feel right now? Am I struggling right now, if so why? If I am struggling, I remember that struggling is a choice and I ask myself if I really want to take that emotional rollercoaster ride that might be the next step. I’ve learned to BREATHE deeply and often in order to come back to right now. What can I do right now to feel better? Breathe. Maybe listening to a song or playlist or taking a walk can help me have a different feeling. Do I really need to call someone or can I figure things o
