How To Avoid Procrastination

Are you like many people who put off what you know you should do in your daily life? We all delay doing some chores, but if you are finding yourself with more and more undone projects, maybe you are a victim of “procrastination”. This gets to be a really demoralizing situation. If you accept the challenges that life provides, then you are more likely to live many years longer than those who spend their lives stressing about “getting things done” and never making the necessary moves to accomplish what needs doing.

If you are not being challenged in your daily life by your work or your living situation, then maybe it is just fear holding you back and you need to accomplish much more. Fear grips you so that you are not able to accomplish what you desire and so you put it off, making excuses not to accomplish the project. Eventually this can become a habit throughout all your facets of living.

Take these steps immediately:

1. Be organized – Start out small to accomplish the larger goal. Keep it simple one day at a time. Make a project chart for your larger jobs and put the smaller projects on your daily chart. Organize your day with a “TO DO LIST” and put the items down as rapidly as possible and do not worry about what order until the page is filled up. Then go back and rank what is most important . This way you can let the other items fall below what is most important and you can get to them later. What you do not get done one day can be added to the next day’s list. I know this can be a hard habit to get into, but once you do it for a week or two, you will find it will be hard to get to sleep without your list made for the next day.

2. Divide Major Projects – If a project seems overwhelming,divide your major project into little pieces. It is all a matter of doing little bits of associated action and keep moving to the final goal.

3. Just get started – When you find yourself making excuses and putting things off, then you know that you are letting yourself go down the road to being a prisoner of procrastination. Just do not let yourself provide excuses. Start with your easiest task and proceed from there. You will have a greater sense of accomplishment when you make small insteps to the greater project than if you do nothing at all.

4. Outside help – Enlist outside help if you find it necessary to finish a project. There is nothing wrong with having help, whether you have to hire outside help or whether you encourage your family members to help on some projects. The idea is to make a goal sheet and keep on the projects you know are needed around your place and pick a start date so everyone knows how to schedule their time to be involved.

5. Reward Yourself – Finally, reward yourself and your crew when you finish a project. Getting a job done has taken a lot of effort, and you need to be good to yourself for fighting the procrastination demon. There is a wonderful feeling which comes over us when we know we have done a good job and can see the fruits of our labor. That is how the world works. As it has been said, this is a kill and eat world. You have to know how to make yourself set goals, work through the human desire to put things off, and finally to feel the sense of accomplishment and reward with completion of a project.

Do not put off having the things you want in life because you procrastinate. Give yourself the satisfaction of accomplishing the things you need and doing them within your goal period.
Remember You are always walking some path, whether you like it or not.

It is now or never – Get up and JUST START! DO IT!

How To Attract Money With The Law Of Attraction

Many people want to know how to get more money. You may have seen the movie “The Secret” and followed the guidelines, but still find yourself wanting more. Did you do something wrong? Are you just not smart enough to “get it”?

Not at all. You see, the movie “The Secret” was only a superficial introduction to the deeper things of the law of attraction. It’s not just thinking positive, visualizing houses, cars and money, and then all of a sudden having it all fall out of the sky. Not at all.

The law of attraction goes deeper than your thoughts, your deepest wishes, and your intentions. It goes to that unconscious level of you that you didn’t know you had. You can catch a glimpse of this when you dream. We’ve all dreamt things that we would not ordinarily do in our every day life. That’s the part that the Universe, God, Superconsciousness or whatever you want to call it responds to.

The key to manifesting more money in your life is to bring all of the different levels of YOU in harmony into one single focus. Now that is a little more complex then just saying affirmations or looking at pictures of fancy cars and houses.

It’s about letting go of deep rooted thoughts such “the rich are getting richer”, “money is the root of all evil”, or that there is something noble or spiritual about being poor and struggling.

Now at first you may think that you don’t believe any of that. Consciously, you may not, but deep down inside it may be a totally different story. That’s where meditation comes into play, and constantly asking yourself how you feel. Here’s a test to show you just how you feel about money.

Can you imagine manifesting an extra $25 by the end of next Friday without having done anything strenous or difficult to get it? How does that feel? Now imagine manifesting an extra $10,000 by the next of next Friday without having done anything strenuous or difficult to get it. Do you feel a difference there? That is called inner resistance.

You see most people have resistance to money. They don’t know it unconsciously until it’s brought to their attention. They associate one with the other. They think they have to work overtime to get extra money, or win the lottery, or struggle or steal to get that extra money. In truth, the possibilities are infinite, and they can happen where everyone involved can benefit.

This is a mindset that is not easily attained just by reading this article. It is a daily practice of questioning yourself. You also have to make friends with money. Money is an energy, much like you and I. Everything in this Universe is made up of energy. Intelligent energy. Therefore, having a healthy love of money, will attract it to you. That is the basis of the law of attraction. What you show love to, will want to come to you more and more. If you are broke and short on money, be sure to always keep a few coins or a few dollar bills in a sack and during the day count it and hold it. Become thankful for that money and send love to it. It may sound strange to you, since in most parts of the world we are taught that if you are not struggling and if you’re wealthy, that you must be doing something wrong. That’s insane. You were meant to live abundantly. You deserve whatever it is that you want, simply because you want it.

How To Attract A World Class Brilliant Idea

So many of the worlds most wonderful creations started as a brilliant idea.

Now, many of these brilliant ideas were ridiculed at first.
Can you imagine what the bank said to Walt Disney when he went in for funding on a magical wonderland theme park that had never been heard of before?

You have the power to come up with the same brilliance my friend.

How…by starting to ask…
“gee, you mean just ask for a brilliant idea”?

Start today and ask the Universe for brilliant, lovely,
wonderful ideas.

Add the power of “thank you” to the recipe and watch your ideas manifest magically before your eyes.

Here are some examples to get your mind open to the needless possibilities:

*I am thankful I am open to receiving new and powerful ideas.
*I am thankful I am receiving fun, easy, ideas to make more money.
*I am thankful for attracting marvelous ideas to improve my relationships.
*I am thankful a powerful idea can get me out of any sticky situation.
*I am thankful there is a creative, fun, easy solution for every problem in my life and I am open to all ideas to transform my problems.

When the ideas start coming to you, accept them all, write them down, and honor them no matter how small.

I have learned by experience that their truly is a creative solution to every problem.

Gabriella, My angel guide (and the minister of finance)
says that one of the biggest ways people stop good things from
coming is to “poo-poo” an idea or slight increase in abundance
when it starts flowing. Statements like,

‘Oh, that’s just a little dribble”,
Or”Oh, that’s not much improvement”
And the biggest one of all…
“Oh, THAT IS NOT ENOUGH”

It is almost like the Universe is teasing us, giving us a little bit of what we want to see how we align our energy and attitude.

If we “poo-poo” the little bit of improvement,
Believe me dearest hearts, we are not likely to see any more very soon..

I tell my students who take the “End Money Worries for Good”
class to be on the lookout for any improvement no matter how small.

Give your attention enthusiastically, emotionally to anything and it is going to grow.

If you cant’ get excited about just a little bit of improvement, “fake it”.

You can transform your energy by transforming you physical state.

Here are some wonderful, fun, exercises to help you do just that.

First, we need to realize that it is likely the pouty inner child that is throwing a fit about there not being enough.
It can also be the “inner critic” that tells you your ideas are not good enough.

Instead of beating yourself up for having those thoughts, we are going to love and comfort the part of ourselves that feels there is ‘Not enough”.

Get in a relaxed state Breathe deeply…

Tune in to that part of you who feels disappointed and left out, that small inner child who did not get their needs met.
That part of you that has been terrified you would not survive.

In your imagination hold, love and comfort that child.
Tell the child “thank you” for bringing me to this moment

Whisper loving words of comfort assuring them that there is enough and all is well.

Forgive yourself for taking so long to acknowledge this part of you.

Tell the child that all is well and we are home.
Move this feeling into the heart.
Ahhhhhh…

Here are a few more statements to help you accept and love yourself right now.

*I love and accept myself and my pouty Inner Child.
*I choose to allow myself to feel gratitude for every improvement.
*I choose to activate the energy of natural gratitude deep within my being,
*I choose to allow natural enthusiasm to come to me.

*I am excited to accept new ideas and fun easy ways to make my life extraordinary”.
