Summer of Change #16: Get to know intuition


For me this was the hardest part. I didn't trust myself. After years of being told my decisions were always wrong, I believed that about myself.

And I kept saying "I don't know if this is intuition or just my brain spewing off whatever..."

Of course, I realized after a certain amount of time that I was writing myself another self-fulfilling prophecy. "I don't understand intuition" so of course, "I didn't understand intuition."

And then one day, I came across a unique point of view. It said there are two ways to deal with intuition in trying to learn and trust it. The first was to meditate about the idea and ask for a strong lead. And believe me, if you do that, the universe/god/I AM/all that is'ness will give you a definitive lead. The second is to follow the feeling you got. It may turn out to just be a strand, a message you were meant to follow for another reason. Or it may lead you to exactly what you were looking for.

Each person has a different way they feel intuition. Some it may be through words. "Turn left!". Others may feel something in their body. A twinge in their left foot when something is correct, a small headache if they are on the wrong path. Some people may have spiders pay them a visit every time they take the wrong path. (Welcome to my life. I used to hate spiders and now I adore them. They let me know in no uncertain terms if I am on the right path or not. If I am? They aren't anywhere. If I'm not? They appear. I've come to trust them so much that when I see one, I look for where I made the wrong turn, make the switch and thank them. Poof! They're gone.)

So find out what your intuition feels/sounds like. Practice with it. Embrace it. And most of all, once you think you know? Trust it.

The voice is usually pretty quiet. It might be in a book you're reading or a song you've heard. If you are honestly trying to listen, it will find a way to communicate.

Of course, if you are honestly trying to ignore it, it will stop communicating. But then, the things it was trying to tell you tend to get stuck in energy centers in the body. If you don't listen to the body, what happens? Disease, anger, pain...all manner of things you don't want to deal with.

Find your intuition and listen to it.

"Prayer and visualization is talking to the great unknown. Intuition is the great unknown talking back."

Pity Party: Party of one

It is difficult looking into the mirror when I am dealing with having what I have to call a midlife crisis. It took so long to get passed my past. I still struggle with some things, but others I have overcome in a large way. So here I sit - I don't feel 43 for the most part, but the hard thing is - I am.  All the things most people are learning in their early 20s, I am dealing with. Now, that would not be bad if I was 21. But I am not 21. I'm 43. The only single men around me are divorced. Most with children. Great. Just what I wanted. (And yes, that was sarcasm.) Not to mention the fact that I seem to attract men I would never be attracted to, not in a million years. Yeah - definitely putting out the wrong vibration.

Review: Bob Proctor 10-week Intensive Coaching Program

OK, I did it. I completed the Bob Proctor 10-week Intensive Program. And intensive it was!~ This program has its good points and its bad points, all which will be mentioned here. But make no mistake about it - If I had it all to do over again, I would! The Bob Proctor Intensive was a 10-week program that used "You Were Born Rich", one of Bob's programs, as its base. The first four weeks were spent with reading intently, watching the DVDs intently, and listening to CDs of the DVDs intently. The last four weeks were spent working toward a specific goal.

Look for the Light - #positive

Image
You know how they always say it is darkest before the dawn? Well, unfortunately, the same goes for emotions. Sometimes we feel about as low as we can get before we make some sort of breakthrough. So next time things seem overwhelming and you think you are drowning, look for the light. It could be anything. A laugh from a friend, a dog sunning itself, even a pretty flower. Or, it could be getting that book you have been wanting for months. Embrace that light. Hold it tight. Remember it. Take a picture if you need to, so that when the darkness encroaches again, you have a clear beam to make it go away. Look for the light.
