What You Do Comes From What You Think

You may believe that you are responsible for what you do,

but not for what you think.

The truth is that you are responsible for what you think,

because it is only at this level

that you can exercise choice.

What you do comes from what you think.

– Marianne Williamson

Wise advice on a Monday morning!  I hope you have a fantastic week!  Make good choices and think before you choose!

Shine On!

It’s All in Your Mind

“It is our mind,

and that alone,

imprisons us or sets us free.”

Dilgo Khyentse Rimpoche

Our minds are precious machines which like computers often only repeat what is put into them.  Whatever story you’ve evolved in your mind, often plays out in your life.  What you concentrate on, appears many times and you may wonder why.  Are you attracting negativity into your life by drawing it with the words, thoughts and actions you choose?  Do you harbor resentments, refuse forgiveness or hold the victim story in your head so powerfully that you continue in a cycle of sadness and ugliness in your life?

Do you long to break free from the prison, the sadness and the negativity?

You can.

That’s the best thing about your mind.  You can change the channel by focusing on the power of positivity!  You can allow your mind to imprison you with the story you have in your head about your life, your past, your list of depressing experiences or you can change the way you look at your life and find the positivity.

So let’s begin today ~ take my hand and let’s change that channel to the one you want to live!

You Are Your Present!

Stand up and walk out of your history. ~ Phil McGraw

I love this quote.  I need to stamp it on my forehead.  I want to shout it from the rooftops.  I want to make it a battle cry.  Imagine for a moment what you could accomplish if you simply stood up and walked out of your history!  Gone would be all the excuses as to why you acted that way, why you thought a certain way, why habits that are so deeply embedded in your psyche are still ingrained thinking that you can’t seem to disassociate from anymore.  Poof!  Abolished, erased and the shackles which held you back would be broken.

And you could begin again.  You could create whatever you truly wish in your life.

You could do, plan and be without fear, failure or anxiety.

So what’s stopping you?  What’s the battle cry in your head that makes your life small?

Let it go!  Drop it by the wayside and take baby steps forward!

You are not your history.  You are your PRESENT!

Shine On!
