The Power of Manifestation

I am a creator of my reality. Each of us are creative beings in our own right. It's who we are. It's in our DNA! We begin the manifestation process with our thoughts and birth them into the world with our speech. For those of you that didn't get that the first time. We begin the manifestation process with our thoughts and birth them into the world with our speech. As Mike Dooley says, "Thoughts become things. Choose the good ones." Everything that happens in our life is a result of our thoughts. Notice that I didn't say some things, but everything! Make a declarative statement beginning with "I am". Let Satan know that you mean what you say. You're not playing! I am serious Satan, you have no power over my life!

Boredom is not in my vocabulary!

Anyone who has known me for longer than five minutes will tell you that I don't do boredom. I am vehemently opposed to anything that suggests boredom. If you needed to go somewhere and you had a Lear Jet fueled up in the hanger with a qualified pilot, would you claim that you have no way to get somewhere? Of course not! It would be absurd to suggest that! That's why I believe that it's ludicrous to say that you're bored.

Confidence versus Conceit

Two different words. Are they different or synonymous? Confidence is signified by a healthy respect for ones abilities. Conceit, on the other hand, is being overconfident in ones abilities to the point where they are cocky. Confidence is a product of time. More specifically time and practice. The 10,000 hour rule comes to mind. Conceit requires no such time requirement. In fact, I would posit that there is an inverse relationship between time and conceit. In other words the more time that you invest the more that you realize what you don't know.

Persistence versus Consistency

I have been focused on the consistency thing and how it differs from persistence. Dictionary.com defines Persistence as “the continuance of an effect after its cause is removed.” Which one is more important? Persistence will help you to achieve a goal however if you're not consistent you will revert to old habits shortly after you accomplish it. Consistency, on the other hand, will cause you to continue long after you have reached the goal. Consistency or persistence. Which one do you choose? It's about making a lifestyle change.

Consistency

I have been doing a lot of reading about actions that I take on a daily basis that I can be proud of. The action that I take consistently is touching base with my Contacts on a daily basis. My goal is to touch base with 3-5 people via email, text message or phone. I have been crushing my goal by contacting seven people per day.

Do Something That You Can Be Proud Of.

Often times schoolchildren are rewarded with a gold star for good behavior. This action reinforces the desired outcome and makes a public display of the child's accomplishment.

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like...Reality

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to my loyal blog followers. The question that I ask myself as I ponder my bowl of healthy fiber commonly called oatmeal is during this time of year, when we are supposed to be happy, and many of us sad? I am thinking about wildfires that are burning out of control in northern San Diego County. It's heartbreaking and it helps you put material possessions into perspective. Reality can bite and I mean bite! It can suck! Sometimes you can be bummed. I hesitate to use the word "depressed" because depression is a medical term which conjures up images of being in a medically induced stupor. So for that reason, I will just use the word bummed.
