Tips and Thoughts

Here are some thoughts and ideas you may find interesting. Thanks for visiting! - Claudette

Learning to listen to your inner voice, the core of your essence requires:

• Checking in with your heart - when you focus on your heart, what does it tell you?
• Noticing your inner critic or sabeteur - what self-limiting beliefs has the inner critic imposed?
• Noticing your body - when your inner critic speaks to you, does your stomach churn? When you feel passionate and alive, where do you feel it in your body?
• Become aware of your belief systems - how does your belief system serve you? Does it allow you to attract what you really want in life? Does it prevent you from attaining your goals?

It is possible for you to attract and create the life that you want. Yes, even the life that seems impossible to have. Anytime you notice yourself saying "that's not possible", write it down. That's a live one: something that you really, truly want.

Notice how you flow energy. Positive energy, feelings and thoughts create positive outcomes. When we focus our energy negatively, we attract negative people, outcomes and circumstances. Like attracts like. What we feel and believe creates our lives.

Write, write, write! Writing connects us to ourselves, exposing us to deeper insights, new knowledge about ourselves, and an opportunity to connect with our innate wisdom. Writing allows to create from the inside out, rather than the outside in.

Be aware of using the words "should" and "realistic". Words like this are indicators that you are stuck in your head, shutting the real you and being the what-is-expected-by-everyone-else you. In his book Taming Your Gremlin, Richard D. Carson writes, "The Real You is a pure life force and is not limited by your concepts and ideas about who you are. It is the real you that is able to experience and enjoy the body in which you dwell, the external physical world in which you live, the thoughts, memories, fantasies your brain creates and stores….the real you is beautiful beyond your most creative fantasy, and allowed to do so it will guide the evolvement of your life in a manner that feels terrific. The real you feels wonderful all of the time; therefore, the more you are able to allow the real you complete freedom, the more you will enjoy yourself."

Passion is our natural life force. It does not live in the realm of black or white, or in isolation. It germinates in creativity, breeds in connection and multiplies in emotional depth.
