Recipe For Manifesting Part.2

Photo credit: Bella Vida by Letty






In my previous blog, "Recipe for Manifesting Your Dreams, Goals and Desires," I pointed out the importance of the energetic footprints of words, thoughts and feeling tone, when it comes to manifesting and creating the life of your dreams.  In that blog, I also touched base on the fact that WE are also responsible for creating what "we don't want" in our lives.

As promised, the discussion today is about creating what we "don't" want in our lives, in an attempt to get you to realize just how powerful your thoughts truly are, and how your thoughts contribute directly to the results you have in your life.

In my webinar series, "Release Your Fears - Reclaim Your Life," I delve deeper in order to get to the heart of the matter in regard to this subject matter. Participants of the this coaching series spend more time here in order to focus on "paying attention to what they are paying attention to."

You see, what most people do not understand is how societal conditioning has played a big role in the current placement of our lives.  We have been conditioned to feel like failures when we make a mistake and/or attempt something that doesn't necessarily go as planned. In this instance, we should use these experiences as a learning lessons, experiencing them fully, absorbing them, and going for them again, but what happens all too often is that many people walk away and give up. 

A sad but blatant example of this is seen in failed relationships today. This experience now almost always equate to never loving again; walk away from love. Failed passions? Walk away from passion.  People walk away from their dreams, believing themselves to be failures, when the reality is quite the opposite.

In essence, our fears and uncertainties crop up, and this is but one example. We become afraid of "losing this love," and low and behold, the relationship is doomed before it ever gets to truly be expressed and experienced.  We have other thoughts too, that create a void in our energetic creative footprints.

When you consider the hardships and obstacles Albert Einstein had to overcome in order to succeed in his lifes' works and ambitions, it should make this discussion enlightening to the point that we will begin to investigate within ourselves if we have abandoned dreams and/or ambitions simply because we failed at an earlier attempt. 

Here are some facts I want this audience to consider: 
  1. Did you know that Albert Einstein failed his University entrance exam and had to reapply a year later?
     
  2. Did you know that he was considered a slow learner as a child?
     
  3. Did you also know that Albert Einstein's greatest breakthroughs came from visual experiments performed in his head, rather than the lab?   
Mr. Einstein's visions included a Universe full of photoelectric cells, television, nuclear power, lasers, space travel, semi-conductors, etc., etc., etc., and I am sure that during his pursuit of these many experiments, he faced any challenges and learning lessons.

The next items on the recipe for creating the life of your dream is "tenacity" and "vision."  After all, you can't create a destination if you do not know where you want to go.

Look at your life and ask yourself, what thoughts have I had that have contributed to the the life I am currently living? Have they been empowering thoughts? Or, have they been self-defeating thoughts?

That's all for today's blog, folks.  Stay tuned for the next recipe card, where we will continue to learn about manifesting the life of your dreams.

Until then, remember the 3 L's: Live, Love and Laugh. These too, are ingredients of the recipe of life!

Coaching for your success!

Full Lotus Moon, by Tara Sutphen

Full Lotus Moon
By Tara Sutphen
The Full Lotus Moon (Chinese) at 11Sagittarius will culminate, June 2, 2015 9:21pm PST/12:21pm EST/0:21am China (Farmers Almanac). 
This Sagittarius Full Moon is all about looking for contentment, no more fragmentation in your environment. Make good choices and settle your mind, settle your stomach. You have been given opportunities to learn, stop allowing trite misconceptions, deception and unloving beings into your personal sphere. You have been given these opportunities many times to alleviate your suffering. It is not a time to carelessly fling what doesn’t serve you aside, only its time to make the necessary boundary. As you now must take a high road and not the low road. The philosophy of an awakened mind is to be mindful, to learn from your mistakes, to not judge harshly, to elevate your vibration of existence. Take time to study new things and to gain expertise. You gain great wisdom through thoughtfulness, always treat others with grace. 
Goodness is when we become conscious of our greater self. When we extend ourselves we become much more in our lives. We all know what bad is…what immoral is…what unhappiness is…so when we ‘cast our will’ to start living an authentic life, we become present to our innate good will – not only to others but to our own self. 
The first step of living an authentic life is using your intuition – Know it, Feel it, See it and Hear it…

Its nice to think we can remove all the masks and rip away The facade as those fakey moments, those moments of inner upset when we squelch who we really are… We want to be accepted as our selfYou are not the only one, many people hold back. Some people don’t allow others to know the real them. That shouldn’t be any of us…time for a real and amazing life. Step it up, the universe is asking us to be brighter and centered.
