How To Get Everything You Really WantWritten by Alan Allport
Have you ever wanted to have a source of power on tap whenever you needed it so that you could be in control of every life situation? Have you ever wanted a source of power that you could tap into to bring you everything in life you ever wanted?I'm sure you answered yes to both above questions - am I right? Well, if you did, I have some great news for you. You already possess that source of power! What is this source of power? Your mind, or more specifically, subconscious part of it. All of limiting beliefs that prevent you from having life you really are supposed to have come from conscious part of your mind. The subconscious is perfectly willing for you to have anything you desire if you only ask it in right way. The problem for most of us is that we consistently program subconscious negatively and therefore attract to us all of things that we really don't want. To fulfil your true potential what you must get into habit of doing is programming your subconscious positively. Now, there are all kinds of products, systems and software on market designed to allow you to access and program your subconscious right way - you'll find best of them reviewed, discussed and offered for sale at my Inspirational Source Website (see link at bottom of this article). I certainly urge you to check out and experiment with these sources, but let's not get blinded by science or hocus-pocus here. When you strip away all of so-called 'secrets' and 'new discoveries' whereby purveyors of this, often expensive, gadgetry try to convince you that without their wares you won't succeed, what you're left with is a simple, universal process that anyone with a modicum of perseverance can put into practice and achieve any and all results they could possibly want. And, it's your lucky day because I'm going to lay before you this exact, simple process that is at heart of all self-improvement programs that have ever been devised by man - and you don't need any special equipment to put it into practice! So what do you need to do? First of all relax. Relax completely. This is essential. You must try to get away to a quiet place where you won't be disturbed by intrusions or noise. You can sit in a comfortable chair or lie down, whichever feels best for you. Close your eyes and relax. Relax every part of your physical body. A good way to achieve this is to tense up all of main muscle groups one by one and then let go tension. E.g. clench your fist and then open your hand and release tension, then do this with rest of your body, limb by limb.
| | Reflect Upon Your Harvest at ThanksgivingWritten by Susan Dunn, MA, Emotional Intelligence Coach
I don't know about you, but at this time of year I always think of work. It’s harvest time. Because of years I spent in MidWest, I was around people who were harvesting produce, bringing in crop for year. The quirks of nature notwithstanding, they would be reaping what they had sown. The result of their work was visible, and commensurate to amount of effort and care they had put into it. They also had an ending. The crop that had been planted was now being harvested. Then it would all begin again. We do not all have work like this. My musings started first of October this year, as I volunteered a lot of time working at church's pumpkin patch, which raises $50,000 each year for local charities. Most of time I just sold pumpkins, but two Saturdays we unloaded huge trucks of pumpkins hauled in from a Navajo pumpkin farm in another state. We formed a chain of humans and passed pumpkins down line to eventually be arranged on church lawn. On one side of me were 2 parolees doing community service time. They talked about how much better this job was than one they’d done earlier, and how nice it was to be out in sunshine. Both of them expected to be “out” by Christmas. I didn’t ask them what they were “in” for. On other side of me were teenagers from youth choir who complained a lot about how hard it was and had to be reminded to pay attention. I'm sure they couldn't imagine working at anything for 8 hours in a row, especially something so, like, boring, dude. The pumpkins came down line in various sizes and shapes, shiny and wet, some with dirt on them. It was very primal. I wondered if Navajos on other end of process had formed a line to pitch them into truck. And if they took pride in their work. If they even saw marvel of pumpkins any more. One time there was a middle-aged woman standing next to me. “You’re a good worker,” she said. “You don’t complain.” If only she knew how much I was enjoying myself. “I was raised with work ethic,” I said. It’s stood me in good stead. Having been taught that work was work and play was play somehow frees me from “complaining” side and allows me to enjoy work. Most of time anyway. As pumpkins passed by us we noted you couldn't tell how much one would weigh by looking. There were some surprises. It’s density. Such different shapes, too. “Squash” someone would yell and down would come a pumpkin that didn’t know it was a pumpkin. Sometimes nature errs. What is line between “pumpkin” and “squash” anyway? One or other must have been a mutant at some time. How exciting to discover one. There’s no such thing as a mistake, I’m reminded. Twice a "perfect" pumpkin came down line and work slowed as each person paused to admire it. No one reprimanded, "Move it along." We understood our mutual need to appreciate perfection when it comes our way. Once in a lifetime … twice on pumpkin line … life is sweet indeed. We have archetype of perfect pumpkin, and perfect woman, and perfect love affair, and perfect job. (Hope you've had yours!)
