this change is designed to re-frame our attempts at daily connection with the people we meet and spend time with. to go from 'how's it going' to 'what went well today?' we hope that people will create deeper connections with one another.
Here's one of my personal stories about healing my badly twisted, splintered, or broken ankle with EFT: I was reading something as I stepped off a curb last Sunday from taking the new dell laptop into get it fixed. (a whole nother story?!?) My left foot twisted all the way over, and it seemed that the sole of my foot was facing the SKY!?!? Man did I TWIST IT!??!?
I'm coming out: I'm an American Idol fan. I'm guessing that the reason for my fandom may be at the heart of the show's popularity: I would LOVE to get up on stage and open my mouth and have a big, beautiful voice pour out of it.
As things stand, I can at best hope for half that equation (the standing up on stage half). And given that the only thing to pour out would be a fine, even at times kinda nice voice, but nothing special and nothing to hit the high notes with, I don't see myself getting up on stage anytime soon.
I believe in the poswer of positive thinking, the power of now, creative visualization, the power of appreication, and all these things. I've read the books and believe what they say, I'm just sometimes challenged in incorporating them into my daily life. I want to try to do this more and I might even blog about it here... tbc.
First as a driven man seeking the truth and diving into the mysteries of the unseen, while trying to make sense of our social landscape, my mind, emotions, and spirit have experienced more than a decade of conflict, desire, purpose, passion, failure, disappointment, hope, despair, faith, love, and a multitude of others. I feel good about these experiences, and I feel good about who I am, and I feel particularly good about the spiritual wisdom that I have been blessed with and how it seems to magically channel through me in moments of inspiration when I work one-on-one with someone. Discovering the richness of life is to have all of these experiences, to have all these emotions, and to experience conflict and achievement. As I've done this work one-on-one, it has been echoed time and again this past year that people want what I have to offer. As I've tried repeatedly to prepare, as I would normally in any business endeavour, my attempts have come up short. This January 2007 as I shared new conversations and inspiration to new people, their words echoed again the same request. Instead of trying to prepare, I recognized with their feedback, that it is in the moment - In Spirit - INSPIRED. With this realization, the steps have begun and I will show up and I will speak in interactive conversation style to small groups who are seeking the same inspirational insights that have blessed so many of these past conversations. As my audience empowers me with their focused attention, the gift of spirit blesses all of us with exquisite bits that will bring more juice to life. How do I know? So many testimonials from people who have experienced it. And I am grateful to be able to do that which brings me greatest joy. Without an audience, without inspiring and uplifting, without speaking and letting this power find its way into the world, I feel dead, useless, and unfulfilled. It is my calling to inspire and see you bring fulfillment into your life.
"You see, when you're hunting for the glad things, you sort of forget the other kind," says Pollyanna. The optimist. "One who looks on the bright side of things or takes hopeful views." One who anticipates a positive future, who looks for the silver lining. The optimist. Somewhat suspect? Are you shallow? Naive? "You don't seem ter see any trouble bein' glad about everythin'," says Nancy to Pollyanna. Is a Pollyanna glow masking great depths of despair? Can you be trusted? How, given hard realities and the suffering of others, can you maintain this relentlessly hopeful attitude? Don't you read the newspaper?
