March – Spring – New Energy (?)

It’s spring ! And with this – it’s the right time to think about …

  • What do you still want to accomplish in this year ?
  • What do you want harvest ?
  • What do you need to SEED to do that ?

Spring is the time of new beginnings – and you can relate that to any part of your life: very private, but also in business.
Spring is also the time of new energy. What’s up with YOUR life energy ? Are you in the right state to do all you want to do ?

What do you really believe in?
That’s not just a headline!

Manifestation and Believes
It IS a question, a question to you. What – do – you – believe – in? Honestly!

Let’s remember the hype around ‘The Secret’ and all connected to it, all the books about the law of attraction, manifestation and creation, all the self named gurus and self growth experts, tons of seminars and workshops and other personal development events. What do you believe from all that? What do you believe from all this content?

Think of the old Wallace Wattles and “the thinking stuff from which all things are made”. Do you actually believe it? Do you believe that there IS this thinking stuff, which moves intelligently according to your thoughts and vibes?

The good and bad thing about all that is, it will be valid – whatever you do believe in, because this is the core of the laws. If you think all this stuff didn’t work for you, you will be right. If you think: ‘It works’, it will be right too. What I want to remind us is that the whole person with all his or her thoughts and vibes is involved in the manifestation process, meaning: even the slightest doubt or fear or no good feeling will be and always is part of our manifestation, like a shadow on to our creation. If you push yourself to positive thinking, but within you there is something nagging against it or just slightest doubts– that’s it. Corresponding vibes will be there – becoming part of the game and the whole thing is messed up. Sometimes it is not even a nagging thought, it can be a strange feeling in your chest or your neck –same effect.

So what can you do? Although the teachings say and examples show that we can get far with our goals, shooting for the stars and landing on the moon. We need to define and reason our goals in a way that we can fully believe in them, the mind and the body need to say ‘yes’ to it. It is better to achieve a believable goal than never touching the 1 Billion Dollars line and running behind it all your life. What one can believe in is actually very depending on the person’s history and current abilities.

Please: I do not say: ‘Go for small goals.’ – Definitely not. I say: ‘Feel and be honest to yourself.’ If you don’t really believe in things and/or have that no good feeling, they will never be part of your reality. And yes, you can practice to ‘feel right’ having big and ambitious goals …

Happy creations and take care …

What could I have been?
How a little story made me think …

Today I read again in one of the most inspiring books I ever read, it’s: “Sum – Tales from the afterlives”. It consists of small little stories about options of afterlives – how it could be, what will happen to us, what will we experience after we have left this world – all done in a very fun way and very inspiring in regard to possible models how this world works, ideas about god, ourselves and concepts about humankind – very broadening views. One of those stories starts like this:

“In the afterlife you are judged not against other people, but against yourself. Specifically, you are judged against what you could have been.”
[David Eagleman, Sum Tales from the afterlives]

Boah, I was reading this while having a good cup of Earl Grey sitting in the sun. Oh, should I sit here? Don’t I have to do  something else? Oh gosh: Who and what could I have been? Booooh, heavy. I actually felt a bit guilty instantly, but on the other hand I was grateful for that hint. Further in the book:

“… the afterworld is much like the present world, but it now includes all the yous that could have been. In an elevator you might meet more successful versions of yourself, perhaps the you that chose to leave your hometown three years earlier … These yous are not really you, they are better than you. They made smarter choices, worked harder, invested the extra effort … They played your cards better.”
[David Eagleman, Sum Tales from the afterlives]

Puuuh, heavy stuff. Did I play my cards best? What >>is<< best? Would it have been better if I would have stayed in the corporate world as an employee? Was would better mean? Was it really best for me to become self employed? Until now, I did not have had any doubts on this, but sometimes it might make sense to question things, which seemed to be (too) obvious – once.

Of course, we cannot change past, but what was best yesterday does not need to be best today. Yes, I could have used certain chances better, for sure, but today is today. I take this hint as a chance to really think how to play my “remaining cards” best. Of course, this will be today’s view and I feel reminded to do that from time to time in very general and do not take any situation including my own creations as given.

Self growth and personal development are high interest topics of mine for years, but sometimes it is so good to get reminded to implement and live in full what the self growth masters I learned from like Anthon Robbins, Brian Tracy and all the other gurus teach.

Take the chance and let it sink in and ask yourself: ‘What could I have been?’ (it’s OK to have a little ‘Grrrh’ in your breast while doing that) and then ‘What can I (still) be? What do I want to be?’
The rocking chair exercise is a good way to ponder on this and set priorities, make decisions and to go on with faith and inner stability.

Happy creations and take care …

PS: The named book is fun to read anyway :-), it’s actually written by a neuroscientist and too good not to include the amazon links :-)
