Why Worry? Employ the Power of What then?

Why Worry? Employ the Power of What then?

Introduction:

Fear, worry and anxiety over future events is paralyzing. When you’re stuck in the what if? mode you are incapable of moving forward and living your life to the fullest.

We all have moments when we futurize. Thoughts of what if? This sort of thinking is rarely positive. It is always negative and self defeating.

You don’t have to live like that. With the Three R’s you can defeat the negative chatter in your mind and move forward with boldness.

Fear and worry exhaust you and drain your energy, they sap your spiritual strength and offer you nothing in return.

Worry and fear have never helped anyone and never will.

The three R’s to rid yourself of worry thoughts

1. Reduce to the ridiculous – when you’re worrying about the future outcome of a future event you are totally wasting your time and defeating yourself. So here’s the how to rid yourself of this kind of thinking.

Get a pen and pad and write down the fear or worry.

I am afraid I won’t have enough money this month to pay all the bills.

Then write what would happen:

I’d be late on some payments and get a late fee

What then?

Well I’ll be further in debt.

What then?

I might run clear out of money

What then?

I might not be able to pay the rent/mortgage

What then?

I’d have to move

What then?

I’d have to live with my folks

What then?

I’d be embarrassed

What then

Well I guess I’d have to start over.

What then?

Starting over might be a good thing.

See how that works? You simply continue writing what then? until you have no more answers. You’ve just taken all the energy and power out of the negative worry thought.

Remember that fear is really nothing more than

False

Evidence

Appearing

Real.

We can all bear what is going on in our life today; it is the fear of what may happen that is the injustice to ourselves.

2. Release the fear or worry once you have flattened it with the what then? process; you can replace it with positive creative power thoughts.

The only thing you have to fear is the unreal worries and fears of your own mind.

Change you thinking, change your mind and your life will take on new meaning.

The outer picture cannot change until you change your thoughts. It is what you habitually think that creates the pattern of your life. Get rid of fear and worry; instead get to know your higher self. Your true self.

3. Rethink it – Write a goal or an affirmation to take its place. Take four deep breaths, relax and rethink. Detach from the outer world and turn within. Calm the chattering in your mind and listen.

Clear your thinking of weeds let the light of new positive thinking pour in. Plant new seeds of power and confidence.

Fear and worry can’t exist along side courage, confidence and fearlessness. Fear vanishes when faced with these powerful thoughts.

Open yourself to the wonderful power of the Universal mind. Just say no to worry and fear. Listen to the voice within; it will put you in harmony with the Universal Power.

There will come to you a sense of strength and peace. Feel the power and energy.

If you do not already meditate daily, start now. Set aside a few minutes each morning for quiet reading, journal writing and meditation.

Emmett Fox:

“If you have no time for prayer and meditation, you will have lots of time for sickness and trouble”

Summary

There is nothing real about worry and fear. The sooner you learn to deal only with reality, the sooner you’ll live the rich abundant life the Universe intended for you.

Now go forth and worry no more. You are refreshed and vigorous. Your mind will leap forward eagerly to tackle what is in front of you to do. Your creative mind will be freed.

Whenever you think ahead let it be a positive creative picture of what you want in your life, not the negative crippling fears and worries of negativity.

You must become the creator and designer of what you want in your life.

How to Unclog Artist Block

How to Unclog Artist Block

Copyright © 2009 Valery Satterwhite

It’s a devastating thing for an artist to feel they’ve lost their inspiration, to encounter a creative block. But suffering from artist’s block doesn’t mean you’ve lost your artistic ability. Artist block can be overcome.

Invariably it will happen. It’s something that happens to all creative beings and all beings are born to create something. Within each purpose beats a heart that longs to be, do and have in this world. When a creative person suffers from an artist block or has lost their inspiration to create it is a devastating experience. Life energy is seemingly drained and the person is left empty in desperation.

Then fear takes over. Fear that there is no longer purpose in life, no reason for being, no hope for the future. Someone who suffers from artist block will Find Excuses And Reasons (F.E.A.R.) why she cannot possibly create that day or ’should’ give up the dream to pursue some other, inauthentic, vocation. Or, she will despair day in and day out over the inability to create and the lack of inspiration. In this despair she will further drive that which she longs for even further from her reach. It can become an agonizing and soulfully vicious cycle of existence.

“Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.” – Winston Churchill

If your heart literally aches from artist block then know this: your truth is that you are an artist. That’s why your heart aches. You are not expressing who you are at your deepest core. You were born to fully express your artistic potential. Anything short of this achievement will leave you feeling a little less whole, striving to reach for an expansion of your artful communication to the world.

In that moment, the moment you are awash in this truth you have a choice. You can choose to ignore this truth, give up in fear and go find some other life to live; creating someone else’s truth. You can beat yourself up over your lack of inspiration further driving you away from what your heart is calling you to become. Or you can take a deep breath, center yourself in the truth of who you are, and ask your inner being what it wants to express. Then pick up your script, your paint brush, your instrument, your pencil, seat yourself at your computer – place yourself in a position where you can begin whatever it is you wish to create.

“To know how to choose a path with heart is to learn how to follow intuitive felling.” – Jean Shinoda Bolen

If inspiration doesn’t present itself immediately that’s ok. Every bit of inspiration that you long for is already within you. All you have to do is allow it to flow. The more you resist your block the more power and energy you add to this block. Allow yourself to be blocked for the moment and begin anyway. Try a new approach to the character you’re portraying, put some paint on the canvas, write the next line in your book even if the line is “I have no idea what comes next” and then take another step until the expression flows. Allow those first few forward movements to be real stinkers if that’s what needs to get out of the way so your creativity can flow again. Let go of any judgment that what you create has to be good. Sometimes it is the woefully errant advancement that will lead to the opening of your creative resources once again.

Let go. Know that blocks are inevitable and that you have all the power you need within you to fully express your artistic potential. Honor your truth and your will be and act in the direction of your dream. You will live in alignment with your purpose in life following your own inner wisdom, the voice of your intuition, your higher being, your muse.

“There is neither painting, nor sculpture, nor music, nor poetry. The only truth is creation.” – Umberto Boccioni

Combining Law of Attraction with the Emotional Freedom Techniques for Success

Combining Law of Attraction with the Emotional Freedom Techniques for Success

According to the Law of Attraction, you have the ability to manifest your dreams. What you focus on you get more of. If that is true, what are your dreams? Consider your professional goals and what you want for yourself. How big do you dare to go?

As children, we dream BIG.  Remember how the world held so many possibilities for you? You were able to be whoever you wanted to be. As you got older, there were more influences in your life. Some of them were very limiting and narrowed your scope of possibilities. Good or bad, someone else’s beliefs and values were imposed upon you. This happens to all of us.

Consider the messages you received. What did you learn about deserving? Were you good enough? Were your interests supported and heard by others? The messages you received affected your identity and how you saw yourself. For most of us, there is a combination of positive and negative messages which we receive about ourselves and our worth. Some of them become your beliefs and truths.

My goal has been to turn a negative into a positive. Instead of looking at having big dreams of success as being selfish what if you were able to transform that perception? How would things be different for you? .   Once again, think about your childhood dreams and how big they were. Is there something you wanted to do which gets you really excited? Are you doing something you enjoy so much that you would do it for free?

When you are sharing your expertise and passion with others, you are being of service. When you are doing something you love, your clients will respond to your enthusiasm. They will gravitate to you and want a piece of that excitement which you have to offer. Believing you deserve to follow a passion is possible.

Each person has the ability to know they deserve to rekindle those dreams and pursue a profession which inspires you. I have witnessed transformations of this very kind. The secret is to align your inner desires with your actions. When that occurs, you begin tapping into your peak potential.

By clearing the limiting beliefs you will begin to feel a shift and a lightness. You deserve to do work which makes you happy. Beginning to transform one limiting belief at a time is all you need to do. Change can happen.

Louise Hay’s book ‘You Can Heal Your Life’ discusses potential. “I love the visualization of standing at the seashore looking out at the vast ocean and knowing that this ocean is the abundance that is available to me. Look down at your hands and see what sort of container you are holding. Is it a teaspoon, a thimble with a hole in it, a paper cup, a glass, a tumbler, a pitcher, a bucket, a wash tub, or perhaps you have a pipeline connected to this ocean of abundance? Look around you and notice that no matter how many people there are and no matter what kind of container they have, there is plenty for everyone. You cannot rob another, and they cannot rob you. And in no way can you drain the ocean dry. Your container is your consciousness, and it can always be exchanged for a larger container.”

Instead of moving away from a problem, choose to work toward a solution. Turning a negative into a positive. Begin to think about what you deserve. If you could have it all, as you dreamed and knew you deserved, what would that look like?

By continuing to use the tools of manifestation and the Emotional Freedom Techniques, you are moving in the right direction. You are beginning to tap into your true potential. Feel the difference as you begin to free yourself from limiting beliefs. You deserve to do it all and have it all. The only limitations you have are the ones you have continued to place on yourself. Recognize you have the ability to change your thoughts. Make the choice to take action and step into your greatness.

Activity: List one belief which you would like to transform. List all the ways this belief holds you back from taking action to grow your business. If you could change that belief to one leading toward successfully reaching your goal, what would it be? Write it down. List all the steps you could take to reach that goal. Now you are moving in the right direction.

Blogging – What Is It?

Over the past many years people have always asked me what blogging really is. I hope this article can give each of you enough information to get started.

Roger

Blogging – What Is It?

In simple terms, blogging is a terrific way to reach your niche demographic, explore ideas and may even be incorporated with your Internet marketing campaign.

Blogging is a practical way to convey information to fellow bloggers with similar interests, however within a sophisticated informational format.

Initiating a blog is quite easy, and once accomplished you will find it a wonderfully useful marketing tool. In order to begin a blog, you will find a number of free services available. Examples of free blogging services include:

1. Word Press, and, 2. Blogger.

All you need to do in order to create a blog for yourself is fill out a non time consuming online registration form.

The second part of the process is within the setup. This will involve your choosing a theme for your blog site and an appropriate template. Once the set up portion is complete you are ready to make posts to your blog. The minute you have completed making your post, your post is immediately published.

The schedule you set up for your blog posts of course is up to you. Generally, bloggers will post items on a daily basis or the more infrequent blogger will post weekly. Regardless of the time set aside for blogging, it is important you post blogs on a consistent basis. The most successful bloggers will make posts around one central theme; however there are bloggers who make posts on their blogs with regard to several different topics.

Another attribute of the accomplished blogger is that he or she will post information in such a way to encourage comments from fellow bloggers.

Regardless of what your blog entails there are a variety of ways you may make money with your blog.

1. Many bloggers use the Google AdSense program in order to earn extra income. Ads populate your blog relative to your niche. Bloggers earn income when visitors to his or her blog site click on the ads. 2. You can also receive extra compensation by including affiliate links.

The best way to institute the idea of receiving income for links is by creating a special area within your blog especially for the purpose. You inform visitors that you recommend the additional sites found on your blog site. The sites and/or links naturally are relative to the theme of your blog. The recommended links come from other visitors to your site who have a link of which they would like to post.

In order to receive compensation for their link, include a pass-through page to Pay Pal on one of your blog posts. You may entitle your pass-through link: “How to Post your Link on this Site”. Include instructions on how your visitor may post his or her link prior to reaching the Pay Pal payment page. You may provide your customer with two options: a one-time payment or on a subscription basis. The advertiser therefore may select to pay month-to-month or for a longer period of time making payment in one lump sum.

Another option open to you in order to secure on-line revenue is through pay-per-post sites. Essentially once you have your niche blog up and running, you sign up at one of the pay-per-post networks. Within this concept, advertisers contact you if they feel your blog is a good match with their products and/or services. You then write a post on your blog relative to their product and/or services and receive compensation for your efforts.

Within the scope of direct sales the consistent activity of posting to your blog can prove very beneficial to you when addressing your niche audience. It is certainly a way to keep interest levels high with respect to the products and/or services you offer.

Blogging is one of the easier self-publishing options, so why not get started today?
