I"m sitting outside. It's a beautiful day. The birds are chirping, the sun is shining; it's just a beautiful morning. It's a bit chilly but it feels good. I've got my coffee and my notebook and my boys (my dogs Simon and Joey), things are good, really good. I love this new morning routine of getting up early and spending time outside before my day really begins.
It gives me a chance to collect my thoughts, think of what I want to create today, how I want to think and what I want to do. It gives me a deliberate, happy start to my day. I like starting my day deliberately instead of reacting to whatever comes up.
I appreciate my life so much - my body for keeping me healthy, strong and energetic; my home for giving me and the boys a beautiful haven to live out our life experience; the flow of money in my life and the ease I'm now feeling about my finances; being part of a loving and supportive family; the health and well-being of my family and friends; and the inner knowing that I can be, do and have whatever I desire in my life.
Life is good!

I’m feeling a bit tired and run down this morning and I know the reason why. I have been putting off making a phone call that I fear might cause me some stress and so I just haven’t called. Funny, no phone call has been made but I’m still feeling stress; I guess that decision didn't work out to well for me.
Actually I was “waiting” to get to a better feeling place before I made the call but then didn't end up doing anything to get me feeling better about the situation which just caused the stress and fear to continue. Oh, how I love the Law of Attraction, no vibration goes unmatched. You can’t fool the Universe.
It’s time for me to “take out the garbage” that’s causing me to feel fear and stress about making this call. By taking out the garbage I mean putting down on paper everything that I’m afraid might happen. Just the act of putting it on paper feels so good to me because it gets those fearful thoughts out of my mind and out on the paper and from there it becomes easy for me to pivot to better feeling thoughts. When I think good feeling thoughts that bring me a feeling of relief the Universe matches that with more things to feel good about.
I’ll let you know how it turns out.
UPDATE: I got myself to a good feeling place emotionally and then made the call. Initially things were going well until I felt the need to justify my decision. I realized that I didn't get clear about my intention for making the call in the first place and that made it easy for me to be pulled off track. I started to feel some negative emotion so I knew that whatever I was thinking/doing was taking me in the opposite direction of where I wanted to go. I ended the call very politely and said I would call the person back. I knew I needed to take a few minutes and get clear about what I was doing. What was happening in the phone conversation was a perfect match for how I was thinking. I had not really aligned with my decision and the person was just demonstrating that for me. Once I made my decision and lined up with it I called the person back. I stated exactly what I wanted with no hesitation and got it. All is well!

Abraham Daily Quote - May 21, 2009
"You are killing more of each other every day over your quarrels over religion than all other things put together because you cannot even come to an agreement about what you think God says, or wants for you. On one side of the world God wants something different than the other. On one side of the room, in one side of your mind, God want something different than on the other. The power is within you. You are extensions of this powerful Source Energy. You are literally God expressing in this physical body. And so, as you are standing in a thought, or in a word, or in an action that feels good to you as you are standing there -- then you are fully open and allowing all of that Divine Energy to flow through you. And in that moment you are all that you said you would be when you decided to come forth into this body. You are the extension of pure positive energy. You are in your full creative power. You are thriving. You are clear-minded. You are joyful. You are filled with love. You are who you are -- you are allowing that which you really are." - Abraham
Excerpted from the workshop in Syracuse, NY on Saturday, September 30th, 2000
As I reading today's quote these words stood out to me:
"As you are standing in a thought, or in a word, or in an action that feels good to you as you are standing there -- then you are fully open and allowing all of that Divine Energy to flow through you. And in that moment you are all that you said you would be when you decided to come forth into this body."
This quote got me thinking about making deliberate choices to be happy and to feel good. I asked myself the following questions:
Do I really care about feeling good?
Do I purposefully think thoughts that feel good?
Do I make decisions based on how it feels?
If I have things that I feel I must do and I don't feel good about it, do I find ways to line up with my decision to do it and then find ways to feel good about it?
It's all about making a conscious decision to feel good. Feeling good is the key because when we feel good we are in a state of allowing and when we are in a state of allowing, all of our desires flow easily and effortlessly into our experience.
Start thinking good feeling thoughts on purpose and watch your life transform before your eyes.

17 Seconds
Could you hold a thought for 17 seconds without contradicting it? I bet you could do it, I bet most of us could do it, especially if we were deliberately intending to hold the thought. But what about a typical day where we aren't intending to feel good or even to feel bad. We just coast through our day and react to whatever happens to come into our experience. How many of us could hold a good feeling thought for 17 seconds without contradicting it in that situation?
Abraham talks about the power of 17 seconds. If any of you are not familiar with Abraham's 17 Seconds process or you might know it as 68 Seconds process I would like to share it with you here.
"If you can hold a thought for 17 seconds without contradicting it, by law of attraction another thought like it will come to you. At precisely the 17 second point, these two thoughts will join one another, they coalesce and when they do there is an energy that is expended, like a combustion point. When these two thoughts join and combust, you can feel a measure of enthusiasm bubbling within you. And in that moment of 17 seconds, these two thoughts that were same become one bigger, more evolved, faster vibrating thought.
If you can stay focused on this subject that you have chosen for another 17 seconds, at the moment that you cross the 34 second mark, that is just two times 17, this now more evolved thought will attract unto it. At the 34 second mark these two more evolved thoughts do the same thing, they coalesce and there is another combustion point. If you keep doing this as you cross the 68 seconds mark, you will have a combustion big enough to affect physical manifestation.
17 seconds doesn't sound like much, but Abraham says most of us start offering contradictory vibrations at about 8 seconds. Most of us don't make it through a whole sentence before we start contradicting the vibration of our desires." I was intrigued with this concept and wanted to see how I would do so I conducted a little experiment with myself.
I noticed that when I was deliberate about feeling good and had a positive intention for my day it was easy to hold a positive thought for way longer than 17 seconds or even 68 seconds without contradicting it. It wasn't that I didn't have any negative thoughts, I did. As I went through my day my thoughts would often drift off to something that wasn't quite so positive and definitely didn't feel good but I was able to redirect my thoughts in a matter of seconds (less than 17) because I was aware of the negative feeling that accompanied the negative thought. From there I found that I could get back to a good feeling vibration with relative ease by choosing a better thought than the one I had just been thinking.
When I had no deliberate intent for my day and just coasted along and allowed myself to react to things instead of pre-paving them it was more difficult to stay uplifted and in a good feeling place. I noticed that I wasn't as aware of the first indications of negative emotion and as a result spent much more of my day feeling uneasy, worried, defensive instead of the way I like to feel which is happy, carefree, abundant and empowered.
I realized that it was much easier for me to hold a negative thought without contradicting it than it was to hold a positive thought. That's why it's so helpful to be deliberate about what you're thinking throughout the day. And that's where the 17 seconds process is so helpful. 17 seconds is not a very long time. It's manageable and it leads you step by step to thoughts that match your desires. And when you are a vibrational match to your desires, your desires must come to you. It's law.
I find this to be a very fun and easy process. I like to set the timer on my cell phone for 68 seconds and then talk out loud about my desires - how I feel, how I look, what my day is like, how I interact with people, etc. I did this a few times during the day today and finally had to shut the timer off because I wanted to keep going after the buzzer went off; it just felt so good to do it. I encourage you to try it and see how it works for you.

My Greatest Joy and Happiness as a Child
Recently I attended a presentation on "Creating Your Own Reality". It was very informative and I learned a great deal but what I found particularly enlightening were the questions that were listed on the presentation handout. I took several days to "be" with the questions, actually I'm still working through them. I like time to "be" with questions because it really gets me thinking and provides such clarity and enlightenment.
One question was about what brought you the greatest joy and happiness at different stages in your life. I loved this question because it got me thinking about my childhood and what brought me the greatest joy. Without a doubt the two biggest things for me were imagining my future and writing. It never occurred to me that the two could go together.
I suppose all children spend time imagining what they will be when they "grow up" and what their life will look like. I was incredibly curious about how I would look and act, where I would live and what I would do for a living, would I be married and have children, etc. I had so much fun letting my imagination soar. In my mind I could be, do, or have anything I wanted. I was still in that wonderful and tender place where I believed that all things were possible.
I also loved to write. Words would flow effortlessly from my mind to the page. All kinds of stories would come to me. I never questioned or doubted what I wrote I would just let it come. When I was seven I even started a family newspaper and would write a story about what was going on with each member of my family. It was so fun and my family was so encouraging and played right along with me. I was writing because it was fun, creative and easy. It was a glimpse of a future possibility for me.
Thinking about this question made me remember the first time someone criticized my writing and how I let that change me. I was still in elementary school but I was just starting to care about what people thought of me. I started to doubt myself and my writing. I started writing less frequently and became very critical of my own work. Writing wasn't fun anymore because I cared too much about what people thought. Soon I stopped writing completely. I didn't stop imagining but where I used to see unlimited possibilities I now saw doubt and limitation. I became very shy and self-conscious as I let other people start dictating what was appropriate for me and what my talent was. That's when life stopped being fun.
It's interesting that now as an adult I have gone back to what brought me the greatest joy as a child - writing and imagining my future. I never intended to go back to writing but through my interest and exploration of the Law of Attraction I have begun to reacquaint myself with that wonderful and tender place where all things are possible. I can't think of any other place I'd rather be!
