The Ultimate Goal

Hello beautiful souls 💖

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately in regards to my goals. As I grow and evolve, I find it imperative to not only identify my desires, but to set a plan in motion to obtain the things that I desire.

So, I asked myself what my goals are and even what my ultimate goal is. This is what I came up with:

The ultimate goal for me is to feel high without stimulants. To “get high” at will. I’d like to achieve a state of elevation and remain there. Additionally, I want to open and balance my crown Chakra and experience nirvana. For a moment I questioned myself. I wondered if my ultimate goal was perhaps a bit lofty. After some thought I decided that I’d rather live my life trying to obtain it than to prematurely count myself out.

I then formulated a plan to discover and experience my own bliss. I found that the key to nirvana for me is expansion. In order to expand, I must dare to step out of the predictable and the ordinary, and take that leap of faith into the exciting, creative, bold…intoxicating even!

I cannot settle for a dull existence. I will not resign to working a job that I absolutely hate just to pay my bills. Although I know I have to make a living, I will make the time to build the life that I want. The point of this human experience is to bound boldly and fearlessly out of mediocrity and explore the possibilities of life. And then take those possibilities and make them realities.. A reality where I love and live without limits and encourage others to do the same.

My goal is to be worry free- to be fearless. To appreciate life..to be grateful for who I am and what I have.. to spread love, passion, fire…To lose control sometimes and not always go with the safest choice. Not to be irresponsible or wreckless- but to be okay with not knowing how every day will end because somehow I know that life will be beautiful and superb. That is my ultimate goal.

And that is my hope and dream for you as well. For you to achieve your ultimate goal. There is room and time and space for each and every one of us to experience our own nirvana. Complete and utter bliss. We just have to dare to step put of our comfort zones.

I am stepping out. Who’s coming with me? 😉

Until next time beautiful souls 💖

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…đŸ€”

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 💜

Beware of the whirlwind

Ladies! I’m sure you’ve seen it- it’s in the books we read, and the movies and shows we watch are saturated in it: whirlwind romances.

The hardworking, underrated beauty gets stuck in the elevator with her spoiled, rich, handsome, (yet somehow still single) boss and lightning strikes!

Or the witty, feisty, event planner lands a contract for an awesome guy who’s engaged to a total…let’s say ‘witch’, who reveals her true intentions in perfect timing to foil her own agenda and allow this event planning underdog to swoop in and be the answer to all the dreams he never knew he had– and the event planner and Mr. Awesome get married instead.

Days later.

Ladies, you have seen it! And I’m sure you have too fellas- your wife, ex-girlfriend or someone in your life has roped you into watching something with a very similar story line. And you shake your head in disbelief while wondering if your IQ has dropped a few points.

I understand.

But this is what we love to watch.

And I speak for myself when I divulge the reason why: because it’s not real!

The reality of it is, the hardworking, underrated, beauty might get stuck in the elevator with her spoiled, rich boss. True enough.

But in reality; the boss either ignores her completely because they are of two totally different socioeconomic statuses. Or she only thought that lightning struck. They go back to his place where she becomes just another notch on his bedpost. A few months later, she quits or gets fired when she meets his wife or fiancé at the company Christmas party.

You already know what happens to the event planner, don’t you? Nothing. She continues to plan the event because he does in fact marry the witch that’s no good for him. The event planner sulks for a week or two while listening to love songs and imagining what could’ve been. Event planner runs into Mr. Awesome five years later and he is a divorcĂ©e with twice the kids and half the money he had before.

They try to rekindle the flame they once had, but Mr. Awesome now has trust issues and isn’t quite over his ex wife. On top of that, event planner “is really focused on her career right now “.That’s really just lonely woman code for ‘I dated a few jerks and it didn’t work out, so now I’m jaded.’ They have sex a couple of times and secretly blame each other for it not working out.

Who wants to watch that?!

Reality bites enough sometimes. I don’t know about you, but I watch movies and tv to get away from reality a little bit. That is why I watch romantic comedies and the like. I want to see the underdog win.

That is why I say; “beware of the whirlwind.” Because in real life, most people are cautious. They don’t jump into life-long commitments with people they met a week ago. So, if a person tries to “romantic comedy ” you; dig a little. Meet his or her family. Talk to their friends. Don’t “Jessica Fletcher ” them, but be careful.

Because only Fools Rush In. (Another romantic comedy.)

Be blessed, be free, be true to yourself.
