Spiritual Awakening: Striking A Nerve!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Striking A Nerve!!!

When you walk in truth and righteousness sometimes you will strike a nerve with others that may not be as spiritually awakened or as aware as you are. In the ever changing spiritual awakening and growth process you will encounter people who simply do not resonate with your message. It is times when you are taking action that you are bound to strike a nerve. When you strike a nerve the best thing you can do is back off and simply ask GOD to bless the person whose nerve you struck in hopes that they won’t react similarly when the situation arise again. Most of the people I encounter are nice and understanding however there are those who I seem to strike a nerve with as I am passionate about what I do to be a lifter and help others. The truth is that not everyone is ready to be lifted however those that are ready will be presented to you and will be open to receive your message as they become awakened and decide to be on a path to improve their personal, professional, and spiritual life.

When you strike a nerve and someone gets their ire up all you can do is say I am sorry I have seemed to have offended you and simply walk a way because being confrontational is like wrestling a pig in the mud you both get dirty but the pig enjoys it. You may want to help but if the person you are helping is not ready to accept your help then all efforts are futile and it is time to move on.  Remember as I have  written many times before it is not your job to bring people kicking and screaming onto the path it is your job to shine your light bright and to illuminate the world so that when people are ready to get on the path you can be their guide.

Spiritual Awakening: Turning The Page!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Turning The Page!!!

 As I listened to Bob Seger’s Turn The Page I began to think about spiritual growth and how important it is to turn the page and not to hold onto to the past for too long. In the past and up until now I would fret over things and then I would realize that worry holds no purpose for when it is all said and done the only voice that matters is the voice of GOD. Through Studying The Ascended Masters like Jesus I have learned that all we can do is to perform at our highest level in all that we do and glorify GOD. If we do this as we awaken spiritually we move along our spiritual path and will be led to enlightenment.  In our human existence we run into many challenges for our way of doing things is a bit different that what others perceive to normal.  As a spiritual being having a human existence it is important to turn the page and move ahead in our spiritual development realizing that there will always be those who do not understand us and that it is not our job to drag them kicking and screaming onto our path but rather to shine our light that they will want to come along with us willingly.  As I reflect in 2014 I can take solace in knowing that I did what I felt was right in my heart and that I was directed by GOD to make a positive difference in my life and the lives of others.  I came to the realization that though our society judges success by the material things that one has there is more to life than just the materialistic one must have a spiritual compass that allows them to be in tune with their inner divinity. I have  learned that one must have a sense of purpose in order to find success. I have  learned it is not the what you do that matters but the why. I have learned that not everyone will share the level of passion you have and that sometimes people will say they they want to do something but when it actually comes to doing it  they may not come through.
 When I have difficulty in turning the page and moving on I turn to the teachings of spiritual leaders like Don Miguel Ruiz.  The best gift I was given a few years ago was a gift from my mother, The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz.  These teachings have helped me and many others to move positively in the direction of our dreams.

 

the_four_agreements It is when we look at these agreements and implement them that we are able to step into the greatness and accept the prosperity that GOD has for us.

Spiritual Awakening: Out Of The Comfort Zone And Into The Positive Zone!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Out Of The Comfort Zone And Into The Positive Zone!!!

 

 When we step out of our comfort zone and we challenge ourselves we find ourselves expanding personally and professionally.  It is when we find our power and strength that we are able to move courageously forward in the positive direction of our dreams. Today I was set to help with The Most Valuable Protégés Basketball Clinic, www.mvpinc.org. I showed up to the gym early and the AYFL Cheerleading Competition was taking place so I stepped out of my comfort zone and parked away form the gym and walked to the gym. Something told me to grab my collection canister for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life.  I then walked tot he gym and I sought out the announcer so I could make an announcement about collecting donations for Relay For Life. They allowed me to make the announcement and most of the audience was receptive and made donations. I then noticed that a lacrosse tournament was going on so I decided to walk to fields and ask people watching the games for donations. Most were  receptive and donated. I then made my way over the basketball clinic as it was moved to the outdoor courts.  It was by stepping out of my comfort zone and listening to the message of source that I was able to have success.

 I have found by giving a new positive energy to something and coming from a position of gratitude that I achieve success. Look at the  way you are doing things and the results you are getting and if the results are not to your liking  make a shift on how you are doing things and the energy you are bringing to them. The key to getting into the positive zone is to understand the spiritual awakening that you are having and to follow the messages tat you are being given and get into a positive flow.

 How many times do you say you are  doing the best you can instead of stepping out of that comfort zone and pushing yourself to the positive zone.  I recently felt really tired and drained when collecting donations for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. I was a bit discouraged that people weren’t visiting http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg1. I switched the discouragement to gratitude and began to push myself to come from a position of gratitude. It was at that point that I began to have more success with my fundraising.  Now when I feel like giving in and stopping I remember why I am collecting for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life.  As I enter the positive zone GOD provides me with opportunities to fundraise such as today with The AYFL Cheerleading Competition and The Lacrosse Tournament. The messages to allow us to succeed are all around us. It is important to become an action taker and follow the messages. It is when you follow the messages and step out of the comfort zone that you move into the positive zone.

Spiritual Awakening: Unleashing Your Inner Don Quixote!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Unleashing Your Inner Don Quixote!!!

 One of my favorite Operas/musicals is Man Of La Mancha. The character, Don Quixote, was fighting windmills. The windmills represented the inner demons that he was facing. As I listened to the music and began to understand the message being deliver I discovered just like Don Quixote many of us are experiencing a spiritual awakening. We are waking up and becoming aware that we have greatness inside of us and that our light is meant to shine bright and thus we are becoming action takers. We are beginning to adopt anthems and thus unleashing our inner Don Quixote and showing others that they can step into their greatness and become who they desire to be. Don Quixote was doubted by many, chastised by others, however he stuck to his mission and taught us about pursuing dreams and being a leader in our personal and professional lives.  In awakening we unleash that inner Don Quixote and we leave all the doubters and naysayers behind as we pursue the purpose that we have discovered. It is when we fully commit to our quest that we begin to understand our calling and thus enhance our personal and professional lives while being of service and value to others. A change occurs when you come alive and embrace the spiritual awakening that you are experiencing. There will be battles that are won and battles that are lost and each one will teach us valuable lessons along our path.

Don Quixote had his loyal servant Sancho to encourage him and move him in the direction of his dreams. Who do you have in your circle that is lifting you? How are you being a lifter?  A strong belief in your self and others will propel you positively along your spiritual path towards enlightenment thus allowing you to experience the joy that comes from being surrounded by encouragers and lifters while also becoming a lifter.

 Many will doubt your dreams and do what they can to discourage you. My advice is do not listen to them and unleash your inner Don Quixote and pursue the dream. To pursue your dream takes courage. There are many stories about those who did not let the naysayers win and pursued their dreams and as a result have found joy, an inner peace, and abundance. Some will say oh they were lucky, others will say oh that can never be me, while others will say if they can do it I can do it.  The journey starts when you are committed to following your dream. It is when you write it down in the form of I will and start to take action steps towards that goal.

Spiritual Awakening: Not An Ending But A New Beginning!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Not An Ending But A New Beginning!!!

December 21, 2012 is where The Mayan Calendar ended and many people marked this as a sign the world was ending.  The reality is that the world was not ending it was taking creating a new beginning as more and more people were becoming action takers and awakening to their true calling. REM’s song featured above tells us of the world ending as we know it as changes are coming and messages are being sent to all of us. It is up to us how we react to the messages of a new beginning.   What messages have you been receiving that you may not have acted upon as you may have been fearful of this new beginning. In many cases what we perceive to be an end is yet a new beginning that will be filled with excitement, wonderment, and opportunities.It may be scary at first as we may not see all the anwswers and all the possibilities, however all will be revealed in due time as everything is in divine order just the way it was meant to be. There will be pain and suffering as the messages are delivered and it is up to us to find the message and reactaccordingly to it. We can look at the negativity or we can choose to look for the positivity as we create a new beginning.

     

Spiritual Awakening: Declaring Your New Beginning

Today say I delare a new beginning where I will cherish my self and love myself so that I can be of service and value to others and watch what begins to appear in your life and how more positive things begin to appear.

Spiritual Awakening: Put A Little Love In Your Heart!!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Put A Little Love in Your Heart!!!!!

 

        

 

Everytime I watch Scrooged with Bill Murray  and the song Put A Little Love In Your Heart plays at the end my heart fills with joy as I reflect on the importance of showing love and make a positive change in the world by being a loving and caring person. The first step to enlightenment is to love yourself and to recveognizr that you are a divine child of GOD. When you look in the mirror and you start to say I am a loving, caring, compassionate person that shows love and shine my light brightly finding success in all I do you begin the process of putting a little love in your heart. By helping others without expectations of return you put a littled love in your heart. By sharing your successes and teaching others to be successful you put a little love in your heart.  One of my favorite songs is Neil Diamonds Turn On Your Heart Light and when you turn on your heart light for the world to see you make the world a better place as you have love in your heart.

Spiritual Awakening: Reaching Out and Impacting Lives

Spiritual Awakening: Reaching Out and Impacting Lives

When I think of celebrities making an impact I think of Bono from U2. I then start to think we can all be like Bono in our own right be it sharing our knowledge with others  or simply sharing a smile or a kind word.

 Bono of U2 delivers a message of hope in the song Beautiful Day. It is when we wake up that we have a choice to make it a beautiful day despite the weather and any trials and tribulations that we may have. By making a conscious decision to reach out and positively impact the lives of others we are positively impacting our own lives.  Bob Burg speakes about being a go-giver is his book  The Go Giver and his book Go Givers Sell More.

    These two books can be great toolsto help you make a positive impact in the lives of others while improving your personal and professional life.

M.J. Ryan’s Book, The Giving Heart has many stories that will inspire you to be a giver and to help you see the value of helping others.

 I encourage you to share your stories about giving and how it has impacted your life. It is when we open up and help others that we see leaps in our personal and professional lives.
