Entertain this for 2013: Napoleon Hill on being born with two envelopes

As Napoleon Hill, the author of Think and Grow Rich, taught about creating wealth he shared his belief which I believe he got from Carnegie. He said that we are all born with 2 envelopes. It’s up to each one of us how we use them.

Contents of envelope one: Taking control of your own mind and direct it to ends of your own choice:

  1. sound health
  2. peace of mind
  3. a  labor of love of your own choice
  4. freedom from fear and worry
  5. a positive mental attitude
  6. material riches of your own choice and quantity

Contents of envelope two: Price one pays for neglecting to take possession of the mind and direct it:

  1. ill health
  2. fear and worry
  3. indecision and doubt
  4. frustration and discouragement
  5. poverty and want
  6. a whole flock of evils-anger, hatred, jealousy, superstition etc….

Let this act as a reminder for even one moment, that we literally only control one thing, and that is which thoughts we focus us.  It’s indeed a full time job. One of my teachers recently said, “Avoid the mental plane at all costs!” Peace of mind is not selfish. Excuse yourself politely from situations where you’d have to engage in too much thought. Truth purifies, untruth complicates. On it goes. You decide.

To keep the conversation going, at least from Napoleon Hill’s pov, have a clear description of your major desire, a circumstance or position which you will accept as your idea of success.

Ask what limitation you have set up in your mind.

Ask what limitation you have let others set up for you.

Finally, what precisely you will do in return for what you ask. This may be work. This may be giving money in a charitable fashion.

I am the vehicle for whatever I call the life force that is in me. To be sure, until an understanding of this is fully realized, I am likely to be in process, and talk process. My knowing is directly proportional to how I demonstrate, create, share or not, this very potential. -It must be a calling- The way I do it, is likely flavored by karmas.

Can’t i just enjoy the ride? I say yes!

Keep Moving

– from thoughts. Go through, under, over, beyond..straighten the hook. Failure is staying in the thought, nothing more, that’s all. We look for results, we think this will mean that. Keep moving. Put everything to rest everyday and lighten the load. Complete- Isn’t this ADHD another label for  visiting, entertaining thoughts, wondering if it should have been done differently causing so much pain, thinking we could have done something differently. Let it go. Loosen the grip, straighten the hook. We “think” we figure things out, figure ourselves out. Problems are created there, and cannot be resolved there. Go beyond- Keep moving.

Oh Oz never did give nothing to the tin man, that he didn’t, didn’t already have. ~America

Creators!

Creative people seem to have more resistances. I was thinking about a pregnant woman, and how clear it is that nature is now in charge. She is not figuring out what she is creating. There can be so much angst and overwhelm on doing our art, or doing anything that is authentic.  Making it a thing, monetizing it. Because who is doing? Aren’t we expressions of the Creative Source anyway?

What is this agency-this energy we sit on? misunderstanding it. The impulses to create then the resistances. The very reason we are here is to create, but if we keep avoiding this power it becomes more frustrated. And we wait for something to clear. We must understand to just do. Don’t dilute, ride it. Make art for its sake. Be the experience, drop the worry, the result. Deny your gifts and you spiral downward. Do what you do with every impulse you have. Let it teach you and show you the way. Let nature deliver. Then this doer is the vehicle. That’s a perspective that tames the beast.

Divine Design- Feng Shui

I don’t know if you know this about me…When you come into my sphere of influence, I begin to see things for you.

It’s not really so woo woo. I do it with “spaces” all the time. I just took care of my friend’s cats and while there, I made some mental notes (I was there for about 10 minutes) on how her home could work, flow, and look beautiful, using what was there, and upon her return shared the details on the phone with her. Mind you, this didn’t come unsolicited as quite a while ago she asked if there was anything I could help her with she wanted to know-regarding decorating. The time just happened to present itself while I was there taking care of Sprout and Myrtle! She tried it all out just yesterday, and it worked and she’s thrilled. So win-win. I can’t really help myself. It’s like a download! She took it heart, and went for it.

Why am I saying this to you? Well, we are not face to face right now, and out of sight out of mind so to speak. As I am putting together this 6 month package- Launch to Lead, like puzzle pieces, I see the mosaic of certain people and energies, and what I want to say is, “If this resonates, at all, please jump in!” There will be something for you.  I’ve been hiding out for a long time, putting my puzzle pieces together! I am not hiding out anymore, and invite you to do the same.

We all have gifts. That’s the point. The thinking mind takes a rest when we spend more time flexing the muscles of what we are divinely designed for.

Divine Design Lab program details here.

This …I promise you!

The instruction is simple. Inner/Outer meet up. Where do you see this for yourself? Take one step toward anything of value and 2 or more steps come your way.

Purpose

I believe the purpose of life is to discover who-what we are. That said, following what has heart , and to take risks therein is a path in just that. Just do it. Don’t quit, that’s the key. You grow.

Build, Risk, Jump

Throwing one’s hat over the fence. Jumping fully into your motivation. Growing your empire. To me, you are that. The empire is you. Sealing the leaks. Validating your innermost calling, motivation. You serve one voice. June 29, 2012 is a 22, The Fool in the cards. That hat over the fence is one more unessential that you don’t need. There’s more room for a gift to reveal itself.

The World

Today is a 21 day, The World in the cards. Please take a moment and celebrate something in your life. Yourself, another, a situation, a new concept…Break the monotony by rejoicing, sharing yourself, even if it is with spirit. We can not go on and on without some acknowledgment. What would it be measured by? How to know contentment?

Meeting Point

At what place are you meeting anything? Are you taking all of yourself there? What I have experienced is when I step fully and sincerely towards a new yoga practice, breathing series, spiritual teaching, and any business practice I am met many times more in return. -I am very disciplined when it comes to yoga practices, getting more so with business. – That’s the meeting point. When you experience that, you realize how halfheartedly you have met things before. Try it with people. You show up strong, purposeful, trustworthy. Bring qualities to every encounter and let other people be who they are. They may truly surprise you and meet you differently. Try, try to meet your life with such sincerity that there is no such thing as regret. Don’t worry about the other. That’s a phantom concept anyway.
