Welcome

I was persuaded this morning to write today about a situation that I recently experienced. Surprise to many, everything isn’t always sunshine and smiles in this positive world I am creating; There are events (apparently), that take place that may be perceived as unpleasant and even hurtful. I experienced just that a few days ago and with all of my practice on perception and energy, my world was still rocked. Since then, I have been dealing with and trying to manipulate the thoughts presenting themselves as “surprised betrayal”.

I am sharing my experience because I have learned to trust that there is meaning in every single moment of every single day of our lives. I have learned that our world is what we create it to be; that we can hold on to and feel about things however we choose to. This philosophy was put to the test as I tried to disconnect from the hurtful words echoing in my mind and stinging my heart. It felt as if I was hit with a blast of sudden and negatively charge energy. Like a powerful and painful wave… and it took me down.

Two days later, I couldn’t get out of bed because I didn’t know what to do. I felt that everything was shook up. Nothing was clear through all of the hurt and sadness I felt. Normally, I do not get out of bed without a plan for the day- I start by giving thanks, review my plans, write down any ideas to explore and then proceed. But I couldn’t because of the feelings that had surfaced. I seemed to be attached to them even though I didn’t want to be. It was as if I was experiencing a trauma to my soul, my insides were wounded and everything inside was exposed and it was painful. I chose to heal my wound by treating the cause, but what was it exactly?

The things echoing in my mind led me to question what I am doing with my life. I questioned whether I should give up or continue on this path. Perhaps I should conform to the expectations put on me and forgo what I have decided my whole life’s purpose is. My heart hurt and I couldn’t think clearly. Nothing felt right. Nothing felt good.

Eventually, as I realized that nothing felt good, I knew something didn’t match up… my mind said I was not good enough to continue but everything in me knew that there is not another option for me. That disconnect allowed me search the root of the issue or the origin of that thought… the cause of the wound.

Before I began practicing and teaching positive self-talk and hypnosis and coaching and speaking, before I began living life from a positive point of view, I questioned and thought long and hard about how I wanted to live. I knew I would have to overcome many obstacles myself, I changed much of the negative self talk and self-belief I carried about myself and the world around me. This recent event brought me right back to those questions. I questioned my greatness. I questioned my path.

Once I became aware of this I immediately knew the “treatment”. I had to let it go.

Before I went to sleep last night I gave thanks for this event, acknowledging that the most painful events provide an equally extreme greatness. That something good comes out of all things. What determines the distance between where you are and where you want to be is directly related to the actions you take in between. In my experience, the worse the storm the greater the rainbow. I decided to trust. I decided to be grateful. I decided to give it up to my higher power and just be silent. I put on my stress relief CD and I went to sleep.

I am out of bed writing this with a fever- a fire burning brighter in me than ever before. The rainbow I am experiencing today supersedes any pain I felt only hours before. I needed to share this as an example of the real power of our minds. I needed to go through the process with you and let you know that I do understand pain and suffering. I needed to share with you that I also know how to get to the other side of that very quickly and effectively.

Thank you for reading this. Thank you for the strength you provide for me. Now if you’ll excuse me I have some greatness to attend to… see you soon. Much Love.

It's not always sunny, or is it?
