The big question is, "How, how do I turn myself around.?" Here is a very excellent article I found that is very helpful.  Please check it out. The Habit Change Cheatsheet : 29 Ways to Successfully Ingrain a Behavior This is from the article, "The simple steps of habit change : 1. Write down your plan . 2. Identify your triggers and replacement habits . 3. Focus on doing the replacement habits every single time the triggers happen, for about 30 days." Everything I found on the Internet seems to agree with these three steps so there must be merit in this.  Breaking strongholds in your life is not an easy task.  First you need to make up your mind that you want to make the effort to break the habit.  It is all about choice after all.  Habits are comfortable repeated actions that we consider our norm.  We all create habits, either good or bad.  Its the bad ones that should get attention if we really want things to change.  Einstein says th...

   Is life just a dress rehearsal where the performers work out every detail of the performance?  Shakespeare said,  " All the   worlds   a stage and all the  men and women  merely players". .. so the world's   a stage and we actors   in it.  So what are you acting out?   How is your play going?  Is your performance what you desired for your life?  Behaviors become habits and habits become values.  A repeated action creates a habit.  Are your habits positive?   The official definition of a habit is: a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that is hard to give up: "this can develop into a bad habit" synonyms: accustomed to · used to · given to · want to · inclined to    Small repeated actions done enough times, especially when done on a daily basis will end up as a habit, something you are accustomed to, used to or inclined to perform.   Do you rememb...

Love is one of the few things in life that gets greater the more you give it away.  In fact, without love there just is no life. If you live your life in a constant state of anger, greed, self-indulgence then you are not really living.  In truth, everyone needs a little love, a random act of kindness, a tender thought.  Each of God's creations have one thing in common.  All things were created by God, Divine Mind.  Being that God IS Love, then all things were created through Love.  We therefore all have the spirit of God within us and that is comprised of love.  Loving is then a natural state of being and something that needs to be shared.   It does not matter if you say something to someone but as you pass by another person you can always send them a silent message, a blessing of love straight from your heart to theirs.  Love is a high vibration and as you send it out you are sending out a strong vibration that will make a dif...

Ever feel like the walls are closing in on you?  Ever get in a place in your life where you feel trapped by your situation?  After taking this thought into meditation, this is the answer I was given.  It really helps me.  See what you think. In the meditation I asked what to do to get out of a situation where I felt trapped.  This is the image I saw.  In the image there was a room and the walls were slowly closing in on all sides making the space of the room smaller and smaller.  Panic set in.  A feeling of desperation took over.  I thought, I must escape before I am consumed by the room!  Problems, bad habits, bills flooding in, insurmountable amounts of work that need to be done or any number of things that happen in life can make you feel like this guy.  Everyone knows the saying, "God does not give you more than you can handle!"  Okay, so how does one escape from the things that would entrap you in life? In ...

Louise Hay says, "I am Love, I am Energy,  I am a shining Light!"  Dr. Wayne Dyer says,"By placing new I AMs into my imagination, my future dream is a present fact." SIMPLE TRUTH:   GOD IS...therefore, I AM  God is within the center of my being and I am His image and likeness here in this earthly experience solely to express as the God that is within.  God is Life, Truth, Love, Spirit, Principle and Wisdom.  I as a child of God, a product of Divine Creation set in motion the qualities of God within.  Therefore I am Life, I am Truth, I am Love, I am Principle and I am Wisdom.  When I recognize who and what is the truth of my being, my true self, I am these things in action. There is nothing more powerful than when you can say with confidence, I AM.  Any declaration that begins with "I am" is instantly something you possess.  It is not something that you think you want, or desire, or think you need, or think you should...

  Blessings are all around  you.  The trick is to be able to or take the time to recognize them.  Seeing life as a vessel filled with unlimited blessings puts your thoughts into a higher place where it is much easier to recognize and acknowledge the many blessings that come your way each and every day. "God has infinite resources with which to bless mankind." (By Mary Baker Eddy)  The more you talk about your blessings the more your mind and heart are filled with gratitude.  The more this happens the more blessings you attract to your life.   It is said that happiness is illusive.  Actually, it is not but it seems to be that way because it is not something you can force.  Happiness is defined as a state of well-being and contentment. It is more of a realization than an action.  Just take a moment to reflect on your blessings and see if happiness doesn't sweep over you.   Blessings are not something that you ...
