regular weekly post will resume next wee. HA
NO post this week due to the christamas Holiday see ya all next week next week and HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS EVERY ONE
So as I sit down to start the post for this week I can't help but tell you I have
had a AMAZING DAY. I One moment of Divine timing after another. It really gives me Hope as I step into the future. Just thought I would say that. So the topic for this week Is the statement. “...What you THINK affects what you SAY…” seems pretty straight forward doesn't it. So Basicly then if I control what I think about. I can Conceivably control what I say RIGHT. Speaking from experience however. IT EASIER SAID THAN DONE. What ya have to realize is that Thoughts have energy. they are a frequency in and of themselves. and they are VERY POWERFUL. either in a positive way…….or a Negative way depending on what your thinking. Think of it this way. We all have an electromagnetic energy field around us all the time. This has been proven by science. We are sending out energy to the world every second of everyday. we will attract like energy to us like a magnet. Largely based on the frequency we are sending out. You have to remember is you are a Co-Creator of your own world your own life. you can choose to partake in the Evil in This World. or you can choose to partake in the Love and Compassion . It is really just that simple. this is where my saying My Moment My choice I CHOOSE LOVE Originally came from. I was trying desperately to have peace in my life, but it wasn't working because I was concentrating on the negative instead of the positive in the world around me. It was only when I began to choose the positive and choose love that I began to have more control over my thoughts. Now I know what you're thinking. Notice I said it was SIMPLE. I Never said it was easy. letting go of the negativity in a world that is ran by FEAR AND GREED is one of the biggest daily challenges we face in our world today. If I allowed myself to be ANGRY. I would be ANGRY EVERY MINUTE OF EVERYDAY. But don’t choose to live that way anymore. I choose to see MY WORLD Differently. I realize that this is a VERY HARD UNDERTAKING AT FIRST…..in time it begins to get easier. I encourage you to use the tools you have to make this process easier. Connect with Spirit On a daily basis. you want to Meditate Great. Pray daily, hourly minutely. that works too. talk to your Spirit Guides no problem. listen to that soft still voice that is Spirit. The key here is to find your way to connect with Spirit on a Daily basis. FIND YOUR CENTER. become Sovereign. what I mean by that is get control over your own life. Find Peace. As you do this you begin to realize WHO YOU ARE and WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT. when then the negativity comes up and as sure as I’m short it will. you will see yourself reacting to it in a whole different way different from what you are used to doing I can honestly tell you that it does get easier over time. The more you choose to think positively the more positive the people around seem to be.I really have to take a moment and thank all my co-workers at the restaurant. I have noticed a really cool trend. Every now and then I will say something about myself that is negative and someone there will hear it and react in a supportive positive way this helps me regain my focus and start to begin to move forward. Two or three times this week I have been reminded in a kind way to stay focused and positive. Kinda Cool if ya asked me. Yes God Listens Yes God help in giving to us in the most unlikely of places too. In the end you have to make the choice to Not take part in the Fear and Negativity around you. make your Energy Field a NO DRAMA ZONE….lol. be like the Bouncer outside your favorite club……..SORRY MAN YOU'RE NOT ON THE LIST There is a great book on this subject called AS A MAN THINKETH written by James Allen. “...Only The wise man , only he whose thoughts are controlled and purified, makes the winds and storms of the souls obey him. Tempest-tossed souls, wherever ye may be under whatsoever conditions ye may live know this in the ocean of life the isles of Blessedness are smiling and the sunny shore of your ideal awaits your coming. KEEP YOUR HAND FIRMLY ON THE HELM OF THOUGHT IN THE BACK OF YOUR SOUL RECLINES A COMMANDING MASTER. HE DOES BUT SLEEP WAKE HIM SELF CONTROL IS STRENGTH. RIGHT THOUGHT IS MASTERY; CALMNESS IS POWER SAY UNTO YOUR HEART PEACE BE STILL ..." These words where written on 1902. and they are just as true now as they were than You can't always control what happens in the world around you. you can However control how you react to it Thank you for coming to my blog LOVE AND LIGHT MICHAEL to edit. I have been thinking about this off in on all week. The Pyramid Of Life. A simple yet profound and powerful tool that helps us realize we are Co-creators of our own world; our reality; our Life. In the coming weeks I am going o speak of this process. The Path from the Unmanifested into the manifested. What starts as an Idea ends up a reality. Before we begin I feel the need to tell you a little bit about my Philosophy about manifesting what we what in our lives. Think of it as a Garden. Lets call it our very own personal Soul Garden. you take an Idea. a Goal A Desire. Something you Want to happen in your Life . this starts very small like a seed. you plant this seed in the garden of your soul. Next you water this seed with lots of love,positive thoughts, positive energy. As this idea begins to grow you protect it. you make sure that no outside forces hinder it in any way. You nurture it. you fertilize it giving it every opportunity that it needs to grow and thrive. As it gets even bigger Prune it, cutting away what is nolonger needed or useful. experimenting trying different things to see what might work the best to meet your particular wants and needs. Finally the seed has grown into a tree and you share its fruit with the world. people come from miles around to see and partake of its fruit being nourished and strengthened thereby. This is the process we are going to talk about over the next several weeks. It is my hope that the end result will help you achieve that which you want in your life. You will find that the end result will not only help you. but all those around you that are paying attention. You will heal Yourself and by doing so you will help heal the world. What You Believe Affects What You Think What You Think Affects What You Say What You Say Affects What You Do What you Do Affects Your Character Your Character Affects your Reputation Your Reputation Affects Your Legacy I need to start by saying. I’m not quite sure where this saying came from. That is to say I am not going to take credit for the saying itself, only that God/Spirit has helped me understand it a little bit better. I have read a lot of books. there was a time where I was reading everything I could get my hands on about achieving peace. I thought it was Albert Einstein that said this saying originally but Now I’m not so sure. So for now we will have to give credit for this saying to that famous Author we all know... Anonymous WHAT YOU BELIEVE AFFECTS WHAT YOU THINK. Seems easy enough right. many things start racing through my head. The little engine that could. HIGH HOPES. The silly song my mom would sing to me as a kid. I can hear the words in my head “..Whoops there there goes another rubber tree plant..”But really, stop and think about it. Everything that is in our life today started as a belief; an idea in someone's heart/soul. In time it came to be real in our world. This begs the Question? What Do You Believe? Do you believe You are: Smart or Dumb Rich Or Poor Worthy of Success or Bound to failure feel free to make a list of what you really believe about yourself and your world. After you have made the list go down the items one by one and ask yourself a few simple questions. Is this a positive thing (something that is for my highest and best good) ? Is this a Negative thing ( something that no longer serves my highest and best good and therefore is no longer needed in my life) Next ask Yourself Why do I believe it? Lastly ask yourself How can I change this Believe in order to better myself? All of us have a Belief system that we were taught as a child and this is primarily what we rely on as we navigate our way through the world. The Great thing About God/Spirit. is that every day is a new day and we can put yesterday behind us and move forward in a positive Loving way. In fact you will find that Every Moment is a New Moment and we can change and Grow Every moment of our lives. So lets take a look at that list shall we. Now To be fair I have a list of my own. To ask you to do something that i was not willing to do Myself would be rude. Don’t you agree??? I believe I am Healer I believe I am an Intuitive Tarot reader I believe I get lost easy I believe I am a good server (waiter) So the Positive things should be self evident so Im not going to insult your intelligence. but I am going to say a little about the the obvious negative one and the one that could go either way. I believe I get Lost easy? Is this Positive.? NO does this serve my highest and greatest good ? NO Why do I believe it? When I was a kid we would drive into an area and I would say stuff like “ I remember being here MOM….there is the school right here and the big building over there. Most of the time when I said these things we had NEVER BEEN THERE before. My family would make fun of me for these silly statements which grew into the famous saying. MIKE CAN’T FIND HIS WAY OUT OF A PAPER BAG. Truth be told looking back on the instances now I think I was having DEJAVU’s but could not articulate as a child what I was experiencing ,but, this is just my opinion What can I do to change it? First I believed I would not get lost.I began to study maps of my area. this is gonna sound silly but here in seattle THE WATER (THE OCEAN) IS ALWAYS WEST. I never understood why when someone gives you directions they say turn east here and north at the big tree. but now I understand. In time I began to get the hang of it. Today when in doubt god bless smart phones. I just use my GPS Navigator I Believe I am a good Server(waiter) Is it Positive? Yea Is it Negative? NO Does it serve My highest and greatest good? kinda Why di I believe this and how can I change it? I changed it to I BELIEVE I AM AN EXCEPTIONAL SERVER this was a hard one for me for a while. I left the restaurant business for over fifteen years and went into sales. I was making GREAT MONEY. I thought I had made it. Than the Economy Tanked and I found myself out of work. this brought me back to the restaurant business. although I was grateful to have a job. I felt like I was a failure in a way. HERE I AM AGAIN. When I made a mistake on a ticket I would be really hard on myself.. GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRR Why can't I get this right I would think . I CAN’T DO ANYTHING RIGHT...GGGRRRRRRRRRRRR. and yes those who have worked with me have indeed heard me growl. It was not until I started to see the goodness of my job that it started to turn around for me. Only when I began to truly embrace it and enjoy it did I truely become good Uhm I mean EXCEPTIONAL at it. Even now I do still get stressed out at work, every now and than but, I take it one table at a time and let life run its course. This is my way to have a positive affect on the world around me. I Love my job and seeing many diferent people each day keeps life unperdictable. Once again I must say I’m a work in progress. Im NOT PERFECT. I just want to enjoy live and be happy and peaceful. sounds like a cliche doesn't it. but If I can do It SO CAN YOU. Now I am going to get a little esoteric on you for a moment. and talk about the concept of believe. WHAT IS BELIEF?????? How can I do It??? Belief it is what you know to be true. NOT What You Think. NOT even what you want. WHAT DO YOU KNOW. Its like the quote from the matrix Movie. DONT THINK THAT YOUR FASTER……. KNOW IT. I’m a Sports guy so let me give you a few sports Analogies. Tiger Woods Believes he can make every putt. Michael Jordan Believed he could make every Shot. Russell Wilson BELIEVES he can play Quarterback. I’m sure the Wright Brothers BELIEVED that could fly. Picasso BELIEVED he could Paint. Mozart BELIEVED he could be an Amazing Composer of GREAT MUSIC.Now look at the work it took to get to their goal they did not just sit on their hands waiting for the world to give it to them. It took working hard and focussing on getting better. There is a saying. “the road to success is paved by failure” I am confident that each of these examples had their share of heartache and failure. but they kept going until they reached their goal. they didn’t give up. BELIEF is this Divine Inner Knowing. you may not know how you are going to accomplish your goal but you somehow know you will. To me Belief and knowing are interchangeable in this instance. it comes from that place deep inside yourself. That place where you and the Universe meet. No person can take it away from you, because its yours and yours alone. WHAT YOU BELIEVE AFFECTS WHAT YOU THINK Put this to the test. Here is my challenge to you this week. make a commitment this week to focus on believing positive things about yourself and the world around you. Do this simple thing. Watch how this will affect what you think in Profound Positive way. As always My hope is that this helps you as much as it helps me. LOVE AND LIGHT MICHAEL OK so here is a Manifestation Update for my life. Those of you who have been coming here since the beginning know that my goal has always been to have an opportunity to do Spiritual Work Full Time. as I’m a Energy Healer/ Tarot Reader First and working at the restuarant second. Truth be told I can see this already happening in my life and I try to make a SINCERE EFFORT TO HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT ON THE WORLD AROUND ME I have always told anyone who is willing to listen of my plans. and sometimes I have probably told too many people. but those who know me know that I have never been very good at keeping my mouth shut. Words have Power. Words do not come back to to you void I believe this. EVEN THE BIBLE Speaks of this. Words carry a vibration to the world. think of them as a Physical manifestation of what is your head or your heart. Now we all know that there is more to it than that. I can say Im going to do this that thus and so. But if I sit and do nothing than that is exactly what will happen NOTHING. we have to put in the work. Practice our Craft. Get better at every opportunity. EMPTY WORDS, words without action are not going to accomplish anything. Even the Bible say FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD. so what does this have to do with my life. WELL AN AMAZING THING HAPPEN. Just recently. One of my roommates has moved out. Leaving and extra bedroom open in our house. I asked my brother and his wife if it was OK for us to turn this room into a Healing Room. Where I can begin to see clients right at the house for REIKI / IET and Tarot readings. They said Yes. so I will now have a chance to step into what I have always wanted to do. I KNOW I KEEP SAYING THIS. I HOPE YOU START TO BELIEVE ME THIS IS REAL. THIS STUFF WORKS. IF I CAN DO IT SO CAN YOU. I truly believe that we as a people have been lied to for thousands of years. We have been controlled and manipulated by the world around us and it is Time TO FIGHT BACK. I am going to say with all certainty that if we knew how powerful we are. Each and Every One of Us. There would Be NO POVERTY AND THERE WOULD BE NO WAR. Sound too good to be true. Look around you I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE SAYING THIS can you hear us. Sages and Prophets have been telling us for thousands of years. Its about time we start to listen This is not the First time I have mentioned this. This is at the very core of Who I am .What I believe. and What I am About. WHAT YOU BELIEVE AFFECTS WHAT YOU THINK. WHAT YOU THINK AFFECT WHAT YOU SAY WHAT YOU SAY AFFECTS WHAT YOU DO WHAT YOU DO AFFECTS YOUR CHARACTER YOUR CHARACTER AFFECTS YOUR REPUTATION YOUR REPUTATION AFFECTS YOUR LEGACY Over the next several week I will be talking about each one of these lines individually. I am being lead by Spirit to write a book and teach a class on this subject. so with your permission you will be my guinea pigs. So I hope that is OK So Yea. I used this to achieve where I am today. and Im just a average guy. trying to help others achieve what they want. Im not here to beat my chest and say I’M SO GREAT In truth we all have the ability inside us to achieve what we want . We all are creatures of Love and Light. We all are Co-Creators of our own world. Come and join me over the next several weeks and I will share my thoughts on this subject. Im calling it The Pyramid Of Life. As always I hope that this helps you as much as it Helps me. and I will see you all next week. LOVE AND LIGHT MICHAEL |
