You Can Do ANYTHING!

Hello Beautiful Souls 💖

I won’t be before you long- as I’ve heard many men of the cloth say but it was never true. 🤣

I just want to take a few moments to encourage some and remind others of this undisputable fact:

You can do ANYTHING you set your mind to do.

That is an actual fact. Think about that. Understand it. You can literally do anything you set your mind to.. as soon as you take the limits off of yourself. Anything.

Because when you set your mind that means that you are locked in. You are diligent, and you are focused on this thing. You apply time and energy to this thing daily.

And when you do that- the roadblocks crumble.

The obstacles move, and you formulate a way to do that thing in your mind.

And then you go do it. Then, you come back to step one. You focus on something else. Set your mind on it and repeat the process over again.

You can do anything.

So…what are you gonna do?

Feel free to comment and let me know what you plan to do!

Until next time, beautiful souls 💖

Today is Ready!

Hi, it’s Mimi!

I just wanted to take a moment of your time. Lately, I’ve really been impressed to talk about the importance of time. What I want for myself and for you is to make the most out of each day. So the message of today (and every day) is…

Today is Ready.

Today is ready to see what you’ll do with it. It has some great ideas, but you’re in charge. You take the lead.

Everyday we are given is an opportunity to do something we’ve never done or be someone we’ve never been. To grow. To evolve. Every day. Every moment. And you cannot allow anyone to restrict you or hold you to yesterday! You are not your past. You are now.

And it doesn’t matter what your past is, as long as you’ve correctly taken ownership of it, processed it, and are actively moving forward. You are not frozen in time. You are not shackled to your past. You’re not!

The moment you speak up, the moment you decide, the moment you take action- that is the exact moment that you become new. You become present.

And the present is the only time there is! When yesterday ended, so ended the opportunity to change it. It is set and it is done. It’s gone. Whether you let yesterday lift you up, or you chose to bring yesterday down- it is of no consequence because today you can choose to go another direction.

Trying to relive the past only results in a waste of precious resources- your time and energy- and a failed attempt to adjust or recreate a day that has already done its job. The energy was there, the seed was planted, the lesson was made available; or what have you.

Yesterday is finished. Take yesterday’s lessons and move on. Because today is here and today wants to do something else.

Today wants to break generational curses, today wants to introduce you to your twin flame. Or maybe today wants to give you a promotion, a new business idea, or your newly built dream home. But you’re so stuck in the past that you can’t get to it!

You’ve been reliving the day you got fired, cheated on, or divorced for ten years now.

And it’s time to let yesterday go.

It’s time.

Today is ready for you to let yesterday go.

It’s time to let it go.

Let it go.

Much love until next time beautiful souls. Love and Light- Mimi 💜✨

I am/Gratitude Merger

Hi!

Some time ago, a thought occurred to me while doing my affirmations. I don’t know if this is something that you’re already doing: if so, great! But I thought that I’d go ahead and share it because I feel that it’s a more powerful way to affirm and manifest your desires.

I learned while reading; that “I am” affirmations are more powerful as it is also a direct reference to God and the God inside of us.

And then I read The Science of Getting Rich and learned that gratitude brings us into closer relationship with Source (God).

So I thought to myself…🤔

What if I paired the two together? Wouldn’t that make a powerful affirmation even more powerful?!

Yes. Yes; I believe it would! For example: instead of saying “I am wealthy.” Try saying; “I am grateful to be wealthy.” Not only are you affirming wealth, but you’re expressing gratitude as well.

So, I began to blend affirmations with gratitude and sincerely; they resonated with me on a different level!

So much so, that I believe it caused me to manifest a nicer car for myself. I went from “I have a better car.” To “I am grateful for a better car.” (I wasn’t very specific; I just wanted a better car than the one I had.) And guess what?!

I went from this car (with over 250,000 miles on it. It used to be a cab.)

My girl Marie

To this car! (With under 100,000 miles on it.)

My baby Mariah

And while I’m grateful for Marie and always will be; I’m really grateful to have Mariah.

I didn’t tell him that I wanted a new car. I just gratefully affirmed and allowed it to come to me. And he surprised me with this lovely vehicle last night.

So I decided to share with you. I hope that your greatest of dreams come true. Until next time…

Much love. Be blessed. And be free. 💜

Create Your Joy

Today is a great day!

I firmly believe that for myself as well as you. I was doing my morning meditation, and decided to check out this app I just heard about called Shine. In honor of national women’s day, it was featured in the App Store. So I said, why not?

The meditation for me today; referred to as my “Daily Shine”; was titled “Create Your Joy”. This really resonates with me because I’m into positive thinking, gratitude, and creating my reality. So, after I listened to Fearless Soul (I swear by them too!) I dove into my daily shine and…

This daily shine was really helpful! It put into perspective even more how easy it is to create your own bliss. I realized that there were small and/or simple things that bring me joy and by doing those things; I can make a better mood for myself thus, building better thoughts. And as they say- thoughts become things.

Thoughts Become Things. These three words, like Create Your Joy; are simple yet profound. They unlocked a new way of thinking for me. It made me realize that although unpleasant things may happen in life, that doesn’t make my entire life unpleasant. Yes, pain is painful. But with some positive thinking, that pain can teach a lesson, and maybe even create joy later.

For example: losing my father is the most insanely painful thing that I have experienced in my life so far. But that loss opened my eyes to a lot of things. After I grieved my loss and climbed my way out of depression (it’s a daily process) I began to focus on things that make me feel good. I really dug my heels into the Law of Attraction, meditation, affirmations, and gratitude.

These thought patterns reverberated into my daily life, my relationships, and my outlook on life. I am beginning to focus on my energy and my purpose. I have become a ‘curious seeker of what makes me light up’ (Fearless Soul)

And it feels great!

So, I challenge you to create your own joy. Take some time to think about things that bring you joy. And when circumstances start to go in a direction that doesn’t serve you- stop and reflect for a moment.

Ask yourself: what can I learn from this?

Think about a small thing that brings you joy…and then go do it! If you can’t do it right that second, take a deep breath and visualize yourself doing it.

We are Creators. So…

Create Your Joy!

Be blessed 💜

Gratitude

I’ve been on a journey for the last two months. I’m all about self improvement and being positive, but I had been having a hard time remaining in a positive state…until now. (This is my disclaimer: this journey is not for the faint of heart. ) It isn’t a magic remedy. It does take some work. But I kid you not when I say that this has been the best two months of my life! ‘What is this journey?‘ You ask?? Well, it’s two things that go hand in hand: Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Law of Attraction (LOA) .

To be honest, I heard about the law of attraction several years ago. I’m only exercising it now because; well, quite frankly, I was too skeptical and close-minded to try it. But on my niece’s birthday (also New Year’s Eve) I received a visit that basically changed my life. My cousin, whom I will lovingly refer to as Miss Blue, came over and she was absolutely radiant! Don’t get me wrong; she’s a beautiful person, but there was something different about her. She exuded such a positive energy that I thought to myself; I want what she has! And she, being the person that she is; let me in on her secret. She herself had been on this journey for over a month. She told me that she had been practicing LOA and that it was really quite simple.

I listened intently as she told me how simple it was and that there were YouTube videos all about it. So it doesn’t cost you a dime to try! 🙂

And for the most part, it is simple. When I issued my disclaimer; I simply wanted to make my readers aware that this may not happen for you overnight. There are a few things that you should know.

  1. You must be willing to honestly evaluate yourself.
  2. You have to recondition and reprogram years worth of beliefs.
  3. You have to be consistent!
  4. Life still happens, but you’ll be more prepared for it.
  5. You must have gratitude!!

If you are willing to do and accept those things, then you are already well on your way to greatness.

The first week was touch and go for me. I found myself complaining about random things and then remembering that I wanted something different for my life and going back to gratitude. Gratitude is essential in both NLP and LOA.

After the first week, I began to immerse myself in as much positivity as I could find. I watched YouTube videos – my favorite is “Learn How to Control Your Mind (Use this to Brainwash Yourself)”. It has some really great information in it! I’ve also added motivational content onto my iphone by Fearless Soul. This helps me get my mornings started. I also took a LOA/NLP course on groupon by Sharon Bolt. She had some great insight, and an inspiring story about how the Law of Attraction changed her life.

**Just in case you don’t know, NLP is basically reprogramming your way of thinking and the way you communicate with your brain. LOA is the belief that you attract the things that you think about. So, if you think about having a bad day at work, you will have a bad day at work. However, if you go in to work believing that your day will be great; then your day will be great. That’s the Law of Attraction. I learned while watching my aforementioned favorite LOA/NLP video that our brains are currently programmed to respond and react to memories. This essentially means that we spend each day living in the past. We don’t do certain things because we have a memory of something similar. We accept that we are going to have a bad day at work because we had a bad day yesterday. NLP teaches you to tell your brain something different. Don’t expect a bad day because you’ve had bad days in the past. Each day is new and you can decide what type of day you’ll have! Happiness is a choice.

The cornerstone of this lifestyle is gratitude. Take some time to look around you. There are so many things to be grateful for! My eyes are open to the beauty of this world and how blessed I really am. This is not to say that I will not strive for more- because I definitely will- but I’ve learned that success cannot be acquired without gratitude.

I’m still at the beginning stages of my journey, but it’s authentic. I feel the change on the inside and that’s exactly what I needed. I am evolving from the inside out and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me! Happiness is a choice; and I choose happy. So remember, stay grateful and be great.

Bye for now, beautiful people.
