One Dad I know uses what I call Post-It® Note therapy on his children. He leaves sticky Post-It Notes everywhere ...in their lunch box, inside their shoes, on top of their sandwich before he wraps it up. He once went into his daughter's room, looking for his hammer, and on the back of her bedroom door were every Post-It Note he'd ever given her - over 250 in all with simple messages like 'Great job'...'I love you'...or 'You're special to me.' Do you think that girl knew, without a doubt, that her Dad valued her and loved her?
If What you re doing now was enough to get what you want, you'd already have it.
The principles always work if you work the principles.
One needs to have some sense of purpose. Next, you need to have a vision that grows out of that purpose.
I consider myself to be an inverse paranoid. I always operate as if everything is part of a universal plot to enhance my well-being.
I teach that people should watch less TV. I don't care what else they're doing! The average American's watching anywhere from three to six hours a day. If you watch six hours of TV a day, that's 15 years of your life!
If you really stop resisting someone or stop judging them or stop being afraid of them or stop imagining they're going to do something negative they haven't done yet, it changes the energetic field, it changes the relationship, and that person - not always, but often - will shift their behavior because of what you've done.
What others think about you is none of your business.
There's so much information on the internet. But people don't need more information, they need 'aha moments,' they need awareness, they need things that actually shift and change them.
My life purpose is to inspire and empower people and organizations to live their highest vision in a context of love and joy and in harmony with the highest good of all concerned.
One of the things I tell people in my seminars is to hang out with positive, nurturing people. You become like who you hang out with.
Everything you think, say, and do needs to become intentional and aligned with your purpose, your values, and your goals.
I don't blame or complain about things like the economy, the government, taxes, employees, gas prices, or any of the external things that I don't have control over. The only thing I have control over is my response to these things.
When you have inspired thought, you have to trust it and you have to act on it.
