Plant Seeds

Oh boy it's Wednesday!

Some people call it hump day. I like to think of Wednesday as the day for inspiring questions. Or planting seeds.

It has been said that the quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask.

So you could ask; how can I take 2 weeks off work and not lose any pay. And the level of thinking will be on that level. Fine thing to think about.

But what about the question being; how can I take a vacation to my favorite place and increase my income by 10%?

Kinda amazing when you think of it huh? Each question is perfectly legitimate, and acceptable, but the second one opens up possibilities of freedom not experienced in the first.

So I like to think of Wednesday as seed planting day. What questions can I start to ask that will pull me forward, that will put me in a kind of development unprecedented.

What can you ask today that will plant a seed for your dreams to become your reality?

A Perfect Day To Start

It's a perfect day to start.

Today I allow room for growth, expansion, and awareness.

Today I am grateful for not only what I have but for what's coming.

I see great things here for me.

A new job offer for more money than I expected.

My marriage is better than ever.

My friends and family are connected.

I write and finish my first best selling book.

I've designed new classes and workshops building networking groups of people willing to support and be supported in their vision, goals and dreams.

Today is the prefect day. This moment is the perfect moment.

Vision and Focus

I had a Great Aunt that was a concert pianist, she 'practiced' her scales on the piano everyday for at least an hour. Then she would begin to really work. She would practice the pieces she was preparing to perform, or challenge herself in playing old pieces. But she was focused on her craft.
I was wondering if we have that kind of focus these days? And can we produce the same results if we don't?
Needless to say my Great Aunt grew up in a time of no TV, or computer or Internet games, so her experience of time was different. But she also grew up in a time of having to work very hard, manual labor was how most people earned their living, and she was an expense for the family being a musician.
So how did she keep focused, and play each day when all around her the pressure to bring in money for the family, and to get married, settle down, stop all this dreaming of being a piano player must have felt insurmountable?
That really is the question each of us must ask each day of ourselves.
Oprah Winfrey has said she asks each night : "Please allow me to provide what you want from me God"
Not just one night a week, every night.
That is a million dollar prayer. A clear focus to provide what is wanted and needed, and you are the vessel through which your vision becomes a reality.
A million dollar prayer will result in a million dollar answer. But like my Aunt it takes practice, persistence, dedication.
I think dedication is something many of us fear. To really dedicate oneself to something, for no apparent reason, or if you will make money at it, just because it fulfills you.
that is true dedication.

Dreaming at Disneyland

"If you can dream it you can do it." Walt Disney

So, yesterday, my husband and I went to Disneyland for some much needed R&R. He has been working 7 days a week 10-12 hour days. I've been under my own stress.

We walked through the park and rode our favorite California Screamin' rollercoaster in California Adventure. the best smoothest rollercoaster ride ever! lol

We found a place in the park in Main Street that had displays on Walt Disney and his dream called "Disneyland"

We were taken step by step on how he dreamed it, how he got his engineers and animators to dream too.

I asked myself: what are my dreams and am I willing to put them to the test of becoming real?

My dreams: to be a public speaker, to write best selling books, to teach all I have learned in the skill of listening, compassion, creating an environment of respect, to love fully and freely, to be a vehicle for spirit to speak through, and to be paid well while doing it.

What is your dream?
