What choices would I have if I weren't upset?

16/1/2021

0 Comments

 
What do you do when something goes 'wrong'? Do you think clearly and ask yourself calmly "What's right about this I'm not getting?"  Or do you get upset? 

What happens when you get upset? Does your awareness expand, or contract? Can you see and create more, or less? 

​There is nothing wrong with being upset. Choose it if it's fun for you. 

If you'd prefer to be free of trauma and drama and have greater possibilities, ask "What choices would I have if I weren't upset?" 


What if by living from allowance — where everything is simply an interesting point of view — trauma and drama and upset and intrigue vanished, no one and nothing could control you, and everything in your life got easier? Would that be fun?

What have I misidentified as the answer?

14/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Do you feel anxious or stressed about finding an answer to something you've decided is a problem?

When the thing or person you've decided is the answer doesn't turn out like you'd hoped or dreamt, what do you do?

Do you ask a question, take action, make a choice?

Or d
o you react by spiralling into uncertainty, inaction, depression, rage, blame, shame, guilt, regret or any other distraction? If so, and you'd like to change this reaction ask "What have I misidentified as the answer?"  

Then ask "What's right about this I'm not getting?" There's always something. You just have to ask to see it. ​

What miracle am I that could change this?

12/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Are you amazed at the miracle you be? Or have you decided that you're nothing special or good-for-nothing?

​Whatever your point of view about yourself is, you're not wrong. Remember, your point of view creates your reality. 

So if you're not ecstatically happy with your life and living, and would prefer an amazing, miraculous life, then ask "What miracle am I that could change this?"

What if there was nothing wrong with you? What if you simply needed to change your point of view?

What is the gift of all this?

9/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Had a tough year? Have you had to rearrange your life? Lost a job? Struggled with money? Argued with friends and family? Been isolated or felt alone?

If so, and you'd like to change how you feel about it, ask "What's the gift of all this?"

Maybe you've been gifted time or space to do something you'd wanted to for a while? Perhaps the shake up gifted you a fresh perspective on what you truly desire as your life and living? Have new people who appeared in your life been the gift of friends who finally 'get' you? Did being alone gift you an awareness of your true strength and abilities? What else?

There is always a gift. You just have to turn over all the stones and be willing to see it. ​

What will it take for me to be ease?

8/1/2021

0 Comments

 
What do you do when you're full of energy and ideas, seeking to create wonderful new things? 

Do you stay focused on your target? Or are you distracted by the myriad of things you've decided could go 'wrong' and all the people who you know will try and bring you down?

​Do you experience any 
physical sensations of dis-ease, in your stomach, head, neck, chest, or anywhere else? 

If you sense you're being sucked into the vortex of distraction, ask "What will it take for me to be ease?"  

When you're at ease, you function from elegance: creating the greatest amount with the least effort by following the energy of what's light for you and considering nothing 'wrong,' simply right things you don't yet get. ​

Am I light?

6/1/2021

0 Comments

 
How are you feeling today? Light and breezy? Or heavy and clunky?

What bodily sensation do you prefer? Which bodily state allows you to create everything you'd like? Does one bog you down, or speed you up?

When you are light, remember that whatever is going on in your life is right for you. The exact same situation might not be right for someone else, and they may feel clunky. 

So if feeling light gives you ease and enables you to create your life greater than you could imagine, ask "Am I light?" whenever you're choosing something or taking action. 

If you sense a heaviness, then simply ask a question about what else you could be choosing. ​

What choices do I have now that others don't?

5/1/2021

0 Comments

 
How often are you grateful for things that are showing up in your life? Do you spend much time thinking about what's wrong in the world?

Remember how you get more of what you focus your attention on? So if you'd like an easier, more rewarding and joyful life, shift your focus from limitations to possibilities. 

Rather than focusing on what is 
wrong with the world or what you don't have, be grateful for what you do have that others might not, and ask what contribution you could be. For example, do you have food to eat, clothes to wear, clean water, a place to sleep, energy to warm and cool you, are you literate, do you have access to communications and information, do you have someone to talk to? What other talents and abilities do you have that other people might not have?  

So next time you're feeling down, ask yourself “What choices do I have right now that others don't?”  Then smile and ask "How did I get so lucky?!"  If you'd like to continue, ask "What choice could I make in these 10 seconds that would make the greatest contribution to me and my communities?" and choose that. Smile and repeat. ​

Am I being a doormat?

4/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Do you find yourself allowing other people to walk all over you? You're in allowance of all their points of view and judgements, smiling, listening, asking questions.

Perhaps you're hoping that one day they might listen back to you, ask you a question or two, and see your point of view?

The 'oneness' of our infinite free will universe includes everything and judges nothing. This includes meanness, gaslighting, belittling, and a vast array of behaviours you may not find enjoyable, but others do. Oneness also includes infinite choice, including your ability to choose what you enjoy. 

​So next time you're not enjoying being walked over by meanness, gaslighting, belittling or any other unpleasant behaviour, ask yourself "Am I being a doormat?" 

If you sense you are, then remember you can simply smile, walk away, and choose something else. ​

What if being wrong was right?

3/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Have you lived most of your life feeling 'wrong'?

No matter what you do, think, or say, do you judge and censure yourself constantly, trying to figure out whether it's right or wrong?

Are you stuck in a loop of defending against and fighting for things, constructing barriers with others to prove something is right or wrong? Do you tie yourself up in knots making yourself wrong for everything?

If you'd like to step out of this loop, start here. First remind yourself that right and wrong are "interesting points of view" and ask yourself "who do these points of view come from?" about any views you seem stuck on. 

When others come to you seeking a fight, say "Yes, you are right..."  and when you notice your barriers coming up, ask yourself "What if being wrong was right?"

What change could you create by acknowledging the diversity of points of view? What if there were freedom in being wrong?

What if I lived like I had nothing to lose?

2/1/2021

0 Comments

 
Do you live an exuberant life? How many things are you afraid of losing? Are you worried that people won't approve?

​What if the only thing you had to lose was your limitation? What could you create then? If you'd like to find out, ask "What if I lived like I had nothing to lose?"

When you ask this and you choose for you, you may find family members, friends, jobs, habits, routines, or any number of things might disappear from your life. 

Rather than considering a loss, consider what you've gained. Space, time, energy and you. So now with your gained, space, time, energy and the real you, what will you create? What will you gain? 

Then again, you may not lose anything. People and things may adore the your newfound exuberance and multiple. ​

What if I made my day?

What's going on that you need to 'make' your day? What if you just 'made it' starting now?

What if you had already 'made it' and you could make some even MORE great stuff? Would you be willing to make more? 

So ask, "What if I made my day? What would be the most fun for me to start making now?" then see what shows up and make that. 

Then make some more of that. Repeat.

What's the value of being nice?

30/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Do you ever find yourself surrounded by meanness or superiority? Maybe you only have one such person in your life, who is constantly tearing you down.

Do you find it easy to stand up for yourself? How willing are you to speak out about what's true for you? Are you always being nice?

If you'd like to change the meanness in your world, or find greater ease in speaking out about what you believe in, ask "What's the value of being nice?"

When did you buy the idea that 'being nice' was desirable above all else, even if it meant suppressing you? What if silence was simply a choice you made when you weren't willing to stand up with courage for what you knew to be true for you? What if you made another choice?

Where have you been unwilling to speak up for what you know, for who you are, and for what is valuable to you? Where do you allow a few or even one voice to dominate you?

Are you willing to see that your voice has value, credence and potency to create change beyond anything you've ever imagined possible?

What if I was crazy good?

29/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Has someone ever called you crazy or suggested that you might be from another planet? How did you respond? Did you smile and think "ah ha...you have no idea...." Or did you automatically go into the wrongness of you, work extra hard to try and fit in, and lock down your 'craziness'? 

Do some people define you as crazy for trying to go beyond the bounds of their reality, while others define you as crazy for trying to fit in? Are you trapped in resistance and reaction to what people think? 

What could be possible if you rethought your definitions and stopped assuming that normality was always good, and abnormality was always bad? History repeatedly shows us that people with abnormal minds can solve abnormal problems. What if your 'craziness' was the gift the world required? Would you call that 'good'?

So next time someone's hinting you're a little bit nuts, ask yourself, "What if I was crazy good?"

Is this mine, or somebody else's?

28/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Have you been shopping recently? Was it fun? Or did you get upset because you lost something, like a credit card, wallet or phone? Were you overcharged? Did you miss out on a car park or a bargain? Did your children have a meltdown? Did you leave feeling stressed and penniless?

If your experience was less than joyful, and you'd like to change your shopping (or any other) experience, ask "Is this mine, or someone else's?"

Thoughts, feelings and emotions are transmitted invisibly and soundlessly like WiFi through everyone nearby. So if you're in the middle of a shopping centre filled with overworked, underpaid, stressed, unhappy people on a budget trying to buy a 'festive season,' be aware that you may pick up all their thoughts, feelings and emotions — even if financially you're comfortable and enjoy your work — and walk out feeling unhappy and overspent. 

Even if something does 'go wrong' and you lose something, ask "What's right about this I'm not getting?" and "How does it get any better than this?" smile and keep moving. ​

What games could I play?

25/12/2020

0 Comments

 
How much stress do you normally experience when you spend time with your family, in-laws, or co-workers who are on a different wavelength to you? Have you got relatives who give you a hard time? Maybe you married the favourite cousin and you're 'not good enough'? Do some of them think it's 'fun' to laugh at your views on life? Or perhaps they're just plain mean ELFs who know you're an easy mark?

If you dread family, workplace or other gatherings with people who are not in your zone, try these games and create a difference. 

  • Gratitude Trumps, for when your get togethers are full of robust discussion or outright fighting full of individuals crying out for more attention. This game gifts the ones giving you the hardest time the attention they seek. With gentleness and allowance, say "I'm so grateful that you are in my life. You are such a gift." And smile. 
  • Expand Outwards Reverse Origami, whenever you start to feel you're folding, stapling, mutilating, or contracting yourself to fit into someone else's reality box, or you're gasping in the vacuum because they've sucked all the oxygen out of the room, or you feel pinned beneath the weight of your family/boss' baggage and expectations.
  • ​Nurture You Monopoly, where no matter arrangements your family or workplace has made, you pre-plan a time and place to do something you really enjoy.
  • Interesting Point of View Dominos, for whenever you sense someone is looking to criticise, hurt, insult, or provoke you, smile, nod gently and — without heat — reply "Hmm, really interesting point of view."
  • Snakes and Bring Downers, for when you know the Snakes who always bite you when you least expect it because that's their instinct, and the Bring Downers, who simply get a kick out of making your life hell and bringing you down, will be at the party. When they start giving you hell at the party, smile and acknowledge them for being really great at what they do. How? When they start with the biting and the bringing down — without heat — say "Wow, you're really good at doing that!" When they ask you what you're talking about reply "Whatever you're doing now. What is that?" Then listen with interesting point of view energy. Or walk away, with a nurturing smile to yourself. 

Enjoy the Silly Season. ​

What if I lived my life from the excitement of what could go right?

21/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Do you worry about what might go wrong? Is fear keeping you trapped? Are you anxious for no apparent reason?

Do you feel frozen by these emotions and incapable of happiness? What's the value of operating from worry, anxiety and fear? What if happiness were just a choice?

If you'd like a change, ask "What if I lived my life from the excitement of what could go right, rather than the fear of what could go wrong?"  Perhaps you've misidentified excitement as fear? Or maybe you're distracted by implants that are not really yours? In both cases, acknowledge it and demand change. 

And if you enjoy the news, talkback radio, other mainstream media programs and most people's conversations, consider repeating "interesting point of view" for everything you see, hear or read. 

How much of your worry, fear, and anxiety is you being a highly attuned WiFi device, receiving all the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of everyone around you and busing them as yours? Would you "return to sender with consciousness" please?

How can I out-create me?

18/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Are you distracted by competition? Focused on how to out-smart, out-do, out-strip someone else in your field? 

Perhaps someone is selling an idea they stole from you as theirs and you're trying to figure out how to beat them? Or do you consider that someone else will always be greater than you and at least you should strive to be more like them?

How expansive does competition with someone else feel? When you enter into competition with someone, even if they are the 'leader' in your field, does this create the space for you to be as great as you are? Or does it keep you locked into the limitations of whatever they're willing to, or telling you their willing to create?

Can you truly compete with anyone else? No. How can an apple complete with a nightingale? So if you'd like to step into your life and out of the limited band of competition with others, ask "How can I out-create me, beyond what exists and anything anyone has considered before?"

Are you willing to expand and create your life beyond what others can imagine? It might be a whole lot more fun too. ​

Is this person really my friend?

16/12/2020

0 Comments

 
How often do you get into upsets with friends, or are hurt by the things they say or do? Rarely, a lot, or all the time?

​What is a friend? Someone who enjoys you in total allowance? Someone who acknowledges you just as you are and all the crazy choices you might make, without judgement? Someone who is fun to hang out with and adds to your life, and is grateful to you for adding to theirs. Do you have anyone in your life like that right now? 

Next time you experience upset, hurt, anger, or have some other uncomfortable sensation in relation to a 'friend', ask yourself "Is this person really my friend?"  What's light is right for you, remember.

If you notice your current friends spend most of their time telling you how you're wrong and should change because they 'care about you,' ask them "Would you like to be my friend? Then you need to stop judging me. If not, that's ok. I'll miss you and hope you have a great life." Then smile and walk away knowing you've just created a great space for new friends to walk into. 

And if you do find yourself without friends, start with one: you. Are you willing to be your best friend? What if your energy of space and allowance was the invitation for others like that  to find you and ask to play?

Does this really create happiness for me?

15/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Do you know what makes you happy? How many conclusions do you have about what brings you happiness? One or two? A few hundred? 

What are they? For example, are you working toward something? An exam or job interview you'd like to pass? A girl or boy you'd like to date, marry or have kids with? A computer, TV, car, or house you'd like to buy? A project or cause you're fighting for? Or some sort of mental, emotional, or physical relief you're seeking? Do you consider that when you achieve that target you'll be happy?

Not sure? If you'd like clarity, ask "Does this really create happiness for me?" Then notice how you feel. Light or heavy? What is true for you feels light. So if you sense heaviness, you may have bought the idea from someone else (your family?) their idea of happiness, which might not suit you. 

There's nothing wrong with seeking more in life and being joyful with the results. What if you could be joyful every day of the process too? What might your results look like then?

What's the value of wanting to belong?

11/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Have you ever lamented "I don't belong!" or spent your life trying to fit in with others around you? Has it been easy?

Perhaps you've always know you were different and found it simpler, and more fun, to hang out by yourself, doing your own thing? Did you nevertheless feel a nagging pressure to belong, or believe that you were somehow wrong for not fitting in?

What if there was nothing wrong with not belonging?

Did you know the definition of belong includes: to be the property of, to be part of, and to be suitable for something? Is that what you're looking for? 

If you'd like clarity about this, ask "What's the value of wanting to belong?" Perhaps your inability or non-desire to 'belong' was simply your awareness that you were already, wholly, and suitably the property of something: YOU. 

So what if rather than 'longing to be' something else, you embraced being all of who you are already?

How can I enjoy the heck out if it?

6/12/2020

0 Comments

 
What do you have to do today, that you'd really rather not?

Clean the house? Do the shopping? Visit an unpleasant relative? Wash the car? Attend the weekly staff meeting? Write an essay? Sit an exam? Speak in public? Go to the dentist? Give your family news that you know they'll hate?

What makes you go '"Ugh, I'd rather not'" but you know you're going to do it anyway?

If you'd like to create more ease for yourself, ask "How can I enjoy the heck out of it?" Your point of view creates your reality, so if your point of view is "I don't enjoy this" then your are correct. You don't and you won't. There is no possibility it could turn out to be fun after all. 

If your point of view is "What would it take for this to turn out to be more fun than I could ever imagine?" you create an invitation for that to occur. 

To start, carry with you one thing that makes you laugh. A joke. A game. A book. An app. A photo. A wiggle in your walk. What else? Whatever that is, put it in your metaphorical back pocket and pull it out to entertain yourself when things are getting tough. 

After a while you might fing you won't need it. Happiness is just a choice. What do you choose?

What if worry wasn't relevant?

5/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Are you a worrier? What do you worry about? Failing exams, business, relationships, children, money, saving the world? Something else?

When you're worrying do you spend most of the time focused on what you're creating, or are you trying to figure out what other people want from you, and how to deliver it? 

What's the value of worry? Does it contribute to anything? Or does it keep you trapped in reaction and distract you from taking action? Is it an excuse for no-action? How relevant is it to what you're looking to create?

If you'd like to be free to take action and create the life you'd prefer, ask "What if worry wasn't relevant?"

How much of your worry stems from trying to fit in, or to meet other people's expectations? Do you think it's caring? How aware of, or interested in you are other people? A lot, a little or not at all? Would you like to have more fun? Then stop worrying about what other people want from you and start creating your life for you. 

If your life was an adventure of constant creation, would worry exist?

Am I caring? Or care-taking?

4/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Are you a caring person? Can you always see exactly what someone could be doing differently to create an easier and happier life? And do you consider you're willing to do whatever it takes to help them get there?

How often do you see the results you know are possible? Usually, sometimes, or almost never? How easy and joyful is the process for you? 

If you are not seeing the results you'd hoped for, or the process is hard and you'd like to create change for you in the experience, ask "Am I caring? Or care-taking?"

Care-taking is doing whatever the other person tells you to do, because it makes them feel better. This can include listening to stories, hand-holding, and crying in sympathy. 

Caring is empowering a person to create change, whatever that looks like, and can include doing nothing and saying 'no.'

What empowers? Questions, choice, awareness, and contributing only when asked and when you know change is possible.

What if caring was not the good deeds auto-pilot system you thought it was? What if it was simply the willingness to be aware of, an in allowance of other people's choices?

How can I use this to my advantage?

25/11/2020

0 Comments

 
Do you think you have to always put other people first? And if you don't, you're being selfish?

How does that work for you? Are you always taking care of other people's needs, wants, complaints, and cares before yours?

Have you been able to create the life you'd really like? Or are you tired, frustrated, and losing money or your health from helping other people?

If you've been doing everything other people want, thinking that it will help you, and you'd now like a change, start here. 

No matter who or what comes across your path, ask "How can I use this to my advantage?" and take notice. There may be something. There may be nothing. 

The point is to consider — honour — you first. What if by you considering you above all else, you contributed more to others than you could ever imagine? Is that being selfish?

What if paying for things were a joy?

24/11/2020

0 Comments

 
How is your money situation? Flowing nicely? Or do you find it hard to get customers and clients to pay you on time, or ever? Do you find people seem interested in your work, but always seem reluctant to spend money on it?

What are your own points of view about paying for things?

Are you happy to pay on time for the things you love? Or do you consider it a fun challenge to try and get everything for free, or as cheaply as possible? Maybe you even try to avoid paying at all costs, or at least pay as late and as little as possible?

What impact are your points of view about paying having on payments flowing into your own business?

What if by you paying with a generosity of spirit to bring the things you desire into your life, and honouring their creator, you  are generating an invitation for more to flow your way?

If you'd like to find out, ask "What if paying for things I love were a joy?" And the pay on time with a smile.
