Don’t Blame The Reflection

Getting healthier, getting happier, getting rid of chronic illness and how to be rich…
how to have a better life and how to be more satisfied. We have this innate ability to manifest whatever it is that we need to have.

Whether it’s anyone of the things above or whatever your own spin might be on it. It’s right there. It says something about the person themselves when you ask that type of question. It says that you are tired of the way things are and that you want something better. You recognize the fact that you are not living up to your full potential

So know that at least, number 1, you are on the right track if you have asked such a question. YAY…the rest is easy! (I know, you’re saying, “riiiight”)

So with all of these things, keep in mind that these are not the real problems. They are just symptoms of the bigger issue. What we want to do is get down to the core of what is really going on. What is it that is truly holding you back.

There is a short and long answer as to what it is that is at the core of all these other feelings…no, it’s not money! Although that is what a lot of us think. “If only I had this amount of money”, or “If only this job would come through”, or “if only….” And I have to tell you in my experience, your going to “if only” your life away.

What it comes down to is to simplify these things. I think we get into our heads and we make our minds the decision maker in our lives. We buy so much into conformity and what everybody else is doing that it makes it tough to find our own way to health and happiness.

So a lot of times when you look around and you look into your relationships and your look into your financial situation and you gaze at all of these areas in your life and if they are not working you need to reverse the direction of your focus if you will, to the inside not the outside.

Everything is a mirror reflection of what it is that is going on inside of you. That includes the people in your life and how they behave. It’s said that if there is someone in your life that you really resent or that you have a great amount of resistance to, that it is to the same degree that you have that within you. Now you can look the world and blame the reflection all you want, but it is not going to change until you take responsibility for what is happening.

And so what that does for us it allows us to get really focused and say, “So what is happening to me is a creation of my own thoughts and actions.” Your thoughts, your belief system, your attitude towards how you approach things.

What story have you been telling yourself about the reality of your life?

That’s what it all boils down to.

Let’s take a look at some of the things that might be holding you back from that inner reflection.

I can tell you that they are things that only 6.7 billion people on the planet have faced.
Lack of self confidence, lack of self esteem and self love. Self love being one of the strongest.

If you don’t love yourself or even like yourself then you will not be able to manifest the things in life that are good for you or even beneficial to you. If you are thinking that you don’t deserve or you are not worthy, then how could you possibly benefit yourself with all that the universe has to offer?

The place that I started from was to really pay attention to my thoughts. Whatever it is that you put out there, Whatever it is that you are thinking, start to really take a look and say, “How is this affecting me?” is this really the most healthy and best thing that I could be thinking just now?”

Another way you can see what is happening on the inside is to look at who you are surrounding yourself with. Both situations and people. If you have happy, loving and supportive people in your life then you are doing great.

Unfortunately, there are some out there that don’t have the support that they need to be everything they are.

Notice I say, everything they are, and not “what they could be.”

That is one of the other keys. You are already a great soul light. There is absolutely nothing to “get” and nothing to “be’ I believe that we just squash that inside ourselves again because of the various reasons listed above.

Just start saying to yourself, “What am I thinking?” “What am I reflecting?” and that should alter your perception greatly. Will this take care of everything in your life?…Well, maybe not that alone but remember, that even then greatest journey begins with just one step.

Doing The Things You Thought You Couldn’t Do

All of us at one time or another had something which we thought at the time, was beyond us. It could have been something as simple as driving a car or speaking a foreign language. At the time we couldn’t see ourselves doing that activity.

And when we looked at the people who were actually doing these things, for example our parents or others, we admired them. They looked so accomplished, doing that activity, which looked so complicated to you.

Today many of us are doing those very same things. And you know what, it doesn’t feel like any big deal. Why? Because we have gotten used to it, we mastered it.

However, today we all are faced with new challenges, and when we see others who have already mastered those particular challenges we admire them. But we shouldn’t admire them, we should rather be inspired by them and learn from them.

We must remember that there was a time when we couldn’t do certain and how we overcame those particular challenges. The problem with us human beings is that we forget our successes and remember the failures. Somehow we think that, perhaps because the situation is different, we cannot apply the same principles that helped us overcome earlier challenges.

We also seem to think that a different set of principles apply for small things then, say for big things, which isn’t true. It’s just that for big things it may take a bit longer, because of your unbelief but the same principles still apply.

The difference lies in the way we look at and see things.

When we see things as a challenge we lose the awe and the fear we hold for it. Do you know why you overcame earlier difficulties? Because you saw it as a challenge. An opportunity to be taken and you took it.

The situation itself doesn’t change at all. The only thing that changes is one’s perception of a situation, which makes it seem doable. And because it “becomes” doable we go ahead and do it.

So-called difficulties lose their power over us when we look at it differently. Instead it is us who become the one’s wielding the power, because it’s up to us when and how we are going to conquer the situation.

Seneca sums it up well when he says, “It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that they are difficult.”

Life with all of its challenges allow us to grow and become bigger and stronger. When we cower in fear, we remain where we are and the way we are. We never grow, we never discover what could have been. Where we could have gone, what we could have done.

When I look at my life right now, I can hardly believe what I see. The things I’m doing right now, seemed unthinkable just three years ago. I’ve had so many people compliment me on my work and thank me for what I did for them. But all of that would not have been possible had I not changed my focus and confronted my situation.

As Henry Ford said, “One of the greatest discoveries that a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn’t do.” And all it takes is to change one’s focus. To allow yourself to see what you can be.

Is that too hard? I would think not, for if it were I wouldn’t have been able to do it, neither would the thousands of others.

Does Sedona Method Really Work?

The Sedona method claims it is a really simple way to help you to improve your life. But does the Sedona method really work?

Well, as with everything else in life, the answer is yes and no. If you let the Sedona method work for you, the answer is a resounding “Yes”. If you fight against it and refuse to do the very simple exercises involved, then the answer won’t be as positive.

But then, what would be the point in going as far as purchasing the Sedona method and then fighting it? That would be daft.

Especially when it’s so simple.

If you can ask yourself three simple questions, then you can carry out the process involved in the Sedona method.

You can ask the questions out loud (providing no-one nearby will think you’re just going crazy) or in your head.

First, you should identify the feeling that you most want to deal with. It could be anything. I’d suggest starting with something small first, such as that annoying advert you’ve just watched.

Then just ask yourself the three simple questions identified in the Sedona method.

Remember, there are no right or wrong answers. If you want to hold onto the feeling of being annoyed for the next decade, that’s fine. It might seem increasingly silly as you go through the questions again. But it’s an OK answer!

Repeating this on a number of occasions, you’ll find your feeling start to disappear. Maybe not on the first or second question round. But after, say, five or ten repetitions you’ll start to question why the problem ever bugged you in the first place.

It really is that simple. And it really works!

Make using the Sedona method part of your daily routine, a bit like cleaning your teeth, and you’ll start to notice a change for the better in your life.
