Are you Following your Bliss Today??

I recently enjoyed a DVD marathon of “Murder She Wrote”, when an episode caught my attention, inspiring me to write this blog post. In the episode "Lines of Excellence", a character explained to Jessica Fletcher the reason why he wanted to become an author. He expressed his desire for Fame and Fortune; her response was "Follow your bliss, and the rest will follow.”. At that point, it made me sit up and pay attention. It made me realize what the Law of Attraction is all about, and how it works. To "follow your bliss" means do the things that make you happy, no matter what it is. When you do the things that make you happy, you radiate a sense of joy, happiness, and love, and in turn, you attract joy happiness and love back into your life, for what you send out to the universe comes back to you. That is why it is so important to send out as much joy, happiness and love whenever and wherever you go. 

It doesn't matter what it is, if it makes you happy, do it. I know “Murder She Wrote” is just fiction, but there are a lot of lessons to be learnt in all aspects of life, fiction and non-fiction alike. Here we have Jessica Fletcher, a high school English teacher from Cabot Cove, Maine, who writes a book shortly after her husband dies. She didn't do it for the fame or the fortune, she did it as a way to pass time. After her nephew, Grady, sends her manuscript to a publishing house, her book gets published and becomes a huge success. That leads to her fame and mostly likely fortune, although we never learn exactly how much money she has made through her books, but judging from the fact that she traveled quite a bit and stayed at very beautiful and expensive hotels and not to mention that her attire went from a spinster school-marm to a fashionista (80's style), she has probably made at least a few bucks. 

So let me ask you now, "What do you do that makes you happy? Do you have a hobby that you enjoy doing? Or maybe you even have a talent for something. Again, it doesn't matter what it is. If you get a sense of joy, happiness and love from what you do, you can turn your hobby or talent into a career and the fame and the fortune will come. Now, I am not saying quit your day job just yet, but if you sincerely have a desire to turn your hobby or talent into a career start, taking the steps you need to take, in order to do the things that allow you to radiate joy, happiness and love. A few things I want to mention though are:

1. Never give up on what you want, no matter what is going on around you, even if all the doors of opportunity are being shut in your face. Keep moving forward. If you stay focused on your dreams and desires and continue to radiate joy, happiness and love, a door will open and the fame and fortune of all kinds (if you so wish it). will flood into your life. Again, you have to do those things that make you happy first so that you can radiate joy, happiness and love.

2. Do not worry about When or How it will happen. When you begin to do this, fear and doubt take over and you lose your sense of joy, happiness and love; because like attracts like, more thoughts of fear and doubt will become dominant in your mind. When you stopping worry about the When’s and the How’s and you focus on everything you truly want in life, as though you already have it, you learn to live in the moment.

When you live in the moment, you do not worry about the past or the future; your focus is on the now and what you have in the now, not what you had in the past or what you want in the future. The funny thing is that when you do this, everything you truly want in life comes into your life much faster, because you’re not focusing on the lack of it and you don't have thoughts of fear or doubt, which are huge road blocks to your dreams and desires. When you live in the moment you radiate joy, happiness and love.

When you do the things that make you happy and you radiate joy, happiness and love, ideas and thoughts are going to start coming to you. These thoughts and ideas are going to help you move forward towards your dreams and desires, so when an idea pops into your mind, do it.

3. I've already said it once, but I want to say it again, “Do Not Give Up!” If you are doing those things that make you happy and that gives you a sense of joy, happiness and love you will succeed, but you cannot give up. There might be things in your life that you need to tweek in order to move forward and if there are Please do it. I know that I have had to; my website, for example. Although I have had the domain for 6 years now I have only just started working on it for the last 4. The way it looked when I first started is completely different from the way it looks now. Over the years, I've added and deleted content, I've rearranged the layout of the pages, and heck, only just a few months ago, I had to recreate my whole website again from scratch. Whereas most people will see this as a defeat, I saw it as a new beginning, a chance to start over. 

Yes, it took me a couple of months to recreate every page on my website, but I saw it as a positive thing; it gave me a chance to fix the things I didn't like about my website and through the law of attraction, I was able to solve a few problems I saw within my website, as well. I do not care if I have to recreate my whole website again every few years, if it improves on what I had before I am going to keep moving forward because I love my website and I love what I do.When I work on my website it truly gives me a sense of joy, happiness and love. It might take me 5-10 more years to make it a success but that is OK.  I do not care; I am not going to give up and neither should you.

Remember you can BE, DO or HAVE anything you truly want in life, if you continue to do those things that allow you to radiate a sense of joy, happiness and love out to the universe and you believe that everything you truly want in life is already yours, they soon will be and Always Remember, the Sunshine Dwells in You.

The Day I Became 20 cents Richer

OK OK your probably asking yourself  20 cents that's it?? how can you become 20 cents  Richer its only  20 cents?? Its not even a dollar. Mind you  its not  so much the amount of money that matters, but how the money came to me, in one of my previous blog posts I talked about how I wanted to test the law of attraction  so I asked the universe for a penny a day, meaning that every time I went for a walk I wanted to  find a penny.

Although to be honest with you "find" is the wrong word to use, as you are suppose to

1. Ask the universe for what you want
2. Believe that you  have already  received what you asked for
3. Receive what you asked the Universe for.

No where in those three steps does it say you you have to go searching , looking or try to find  whatever it is you asked the universe for, this isn't an Easter egg hunt. In step 3 you need to be Willing Ready and Able to Receive what you asked for, in other words you need to let whatever you asked the universe for come to you, you don't have to go running or chasing  after it because  if you do, in a sense it will only keep running away from you. Like when you try to catch your pet whether its a cat a dog a bird, the more you chase after them, the more they will run away from you, but once you stop, and mind you when they are ready they will come to you.

Now I am not saying that when you ask the universe for something you are just suppose to sit there and do nothing on the contrary, what you are suppose to do is  take Action but it has to be Inspired Action meaning that while you are on Step 2 believing that what you asked the universe for is already yours, when  an idea of something to do comes to you  Do It because that is considered Inspired Action like this blog post for example, and that is the only kind of action you ever want to  take for when it is Inspired Action it will draw you closer to what it is you asked the universe for. In this way you are going with the flow letting the river take you where ever it wants to take you instead of trying to paddle up stream trying to force things to happen. What do you think is better ? 1. going with the flow, letting the river take you where it wants to take you or 2. trying to paddle up steam against the current ?? I think letting the river do all the work is a lot better then you putting all your time and energy into paddling up stream. By the way have you ever tried to Paddle up stream? You get very tired very fast, you arms and your whole body for that matter get very sore.

 Over the last few weeks I have realized that after you ask the universe for something  you need to just let it go, do not worry about whens it going to happen or how is it going to happen just let it go, the universe will take care of that for you, its like when you order something from online or from a catalog you put in your order and wait for it to be delivered, you Know it is going to be delivered so you don't keep ordering the same thing over and over again, in fear that the first time you put in your order it did not work, because again you Know that it will be delivered. As you are waiting for it,  you might even be imagining what your going to be doing with it,, and that is what you have  to do when you ask the universe for something Know that what you asked for is yours, its on its way being delivered to you Right Now in this moment. So have fun with it, imagine what your going to be doing with it,  when it is delivered.

To get back to what I was saying earlier  I went for a walk yesterday afternoon, instead of focusing on anything particular I just enjoyed being in the moment , I enjoyed being outside the blue sky, the sun, yes even  the heat, I wasn't focused on the past or the future, I was again just enjoying the moment I was in. As I was walking down the street I looked down  and there laying on the ground was 10 cents so I picked it up, put it in my pocket, and kept walking, to my surprise just a few more feet away was another dime, I was so happy by then I was skipping down the street, OK well maybe not, but it did make me smile, the type of smile where you can not stop smiling you can almost feel it in your chest, in your Heart Chakra.

 It was just proof to me that when you let go of  everything, when you stop trying to force something to happen that is when the magic happen's that is when you attract everything you truly want in life, you still have the attitude of gratitude but at the same time when you let go of everything you have the attitude "If it Happens it Happens if it Doesn't it Doesn't" and the strange thing is that when you do that  you will attract to you everything you truly and want and need in life, when you let go of negativity  you let go of your fears your worries yours doubts all your negative emotions, which cut you off, which  block  you from receiving, those things you asked for. So today when you ask the universe for something,  let it go don't go chasing after it, trying to make something happen, let it come to you, let it happen to you, and  when you are hit with Inspiration go with it, as again it is Inspired Action,  just think when you do this you are one step closer to attracting everything you want in life and Always Remember the Sunshine Dwells in You.

Are You Focusing on the "Some Day" or the "Now"

I have a question for anyone and everyone who keeps goal lists. How well did you do this last year?  How many of the things you wrote down on your list did you achieve?  To be honest I did not do so well myself , the things I wrote down on my list for 2012 are pretty much the same things I had written down on last years list, although this year I have a clearer picture of exactly what I want to achieve.

I am not sure exactly why I wasn't able to achieve my goal list for 2011 but I think it may have been  because I was focusing on the "Some Day and wasn't focusing on the "Now" So let me ask you are you focusing on the things you want to achieve as though you have already achieved them? or are you focusing on them as in "Some Day"?

 The Law of Attraction states whatever you put your focus on is attracted to you whether it is negative or positive, the key to attracting everything you truly want in life that is positive  is to act as though you already have it whether its a business a home a relationship a car or even money you have to pretend you already have it, if you focus on it as  "Some Day I will have that business or "Some Day" I will have that car that relationship" it will always be "Some Day" you have to tell yourself I own that business I am in that relationship I own that car.

And again maybe that is where I went wrong with my goal list for 2011 I was focusing on it as "Some Day" rather then in the "Now" So for this year 2012 I have committed myself to acting in the "Now and not the Some Day". I am going to act and pretend I have already achieved everything I wanted to on my goal list, knowing that I can BE DO or HAVE Anything I truly want in life all I have to do is Believe it. So if I can do it so can you and Always Remember the Sunshine Dwells in You...

How Finding a Penny a Day taught me about the Power of the Law of Attraction

I have always loved to go for walks, (maybe the fact that I do not know how to drive has something to do with it) but just getting out of the house getting some fresh air, whenever I am feeling couped up (as I am a homebody) always makes me feel better and it keeps me fit too which is a major plus. So I made a promise to myself to get out of the house and go for a walk everyday no matter what, and to help keep me motivated my cousin and I decide to go for walks together.

Around this same time, I really started to focus on the things I wanted in my life I made a list and started to focus and visualize everyday on how I wanted my life to be. In The Secret a few of the experts recommended that when asking the universe for something to start off small. To test the Law of Attraction I decided that I would ask the universe for a Penny, meaning it was my intention to find a Penny on the ground every time I went for a walk. But as the months went by,  I became more and more discouraged as no matter how hard I tried the Pennies were just not showing up, then it dawned on me I was trying to hard and in the process I was actually preventing the universe from delivering the Pennies to me.

Over the years I have found the best way to find something is to just stop looking for it, it may sound odd but I find that when, looking for something we are generally in a state of stress and when we are stressed we are actually  preventing ourselves from finding it, so whatever it is your looking for STOP do not look for it and you will find it, by the way just so you know this applies to all the area of our life.

After I realized what I was doing wrong I took a more relaxed approach  to it, rather then focusing on the Pennies, and trying to find them I just focused on the moment and enjoyed my walks with my cousin the funny thing about that was once I stopped looking, the Pennies seemed to flow into my life literally, everytime I went for a walk I was finding a Penny, whenever I spotted one on the ground  it made me feel like a child again ( like when I child finds a plain ordinary rock on the ground yet they treasure it like it was gold)

There was even a couple of times on my walk where my cousin was the one to find  the Penny, the first time, he found one he picked it up and gave it to me, which I was not expecting ( but then again the thing to remember is that the Universe always gives you what you put your focus on although it might not come in the way you expect)  the second time he found a Penny, was different as he was not so giving  instead of giving it to me, he placed the Penny in his pocket and kept it. When I sarcastically complained "Hey how come you didn't give it to me?  he just Smiled, and said "This ones mine"  as he Smiled , something told me to look down and as I did there it was a Nice New Shiny Penny, just waiting for me, when I saw it sitting there all I could do was Smile, because in that moment I realized the Power of the Law of Attraction, finding those Pennies just confirmed to me that we can BE DO or Have Anything we want no matter how big or small it is.

Even now to this Day every time I go for a walk I will still find a penny on the ground but instead of picking it up and keeping it I leave it on the ground for someone else as I have let the Pennies go realizing I need to start thinking big and allowing more abundance and wealth to enter my life.

Learn How Singing and Dancing can Help You Attract Everything You Truly Want in Life

Growing up I always loved to sing and dance, no matter where I was, I usually had a stick in hand pretending it was a microphone or making up dances with my sister, and my cousins, although that usually only last a few minutes as they tended to lose interested rather quickly. I was not the best singer or dancer at the time but it always made me happy and joyful, and the most important thing to always remember is do what makes you happy.

When I first started learning about The Law of Attraction I learnt that its not so much the positive thinking, or the visualizing that acts as a magnet, but a combination of the two, which evokes your emotions and that is the real magnet, your emotions, for whatever you are feeling in the moment whether it is happiness, joy, anger, sadness, you are in fact in the process of radiating that emotion out to the universe like a beacon, and you will attract to you everything that corresponds with that energy. Now what energy you choose to radiate out in any given moment is all up to you.

I realized one day, when we are in a negative mood we have to do whatever we can to quickly shift it to a more positive one and the best way to do that I find is to as Lady Gaga says "Just Dance" I do not care if you can or can not dance just do it. Turn you favourite upbeat song on and dance, jump up and down it does not really matter, just get active with the music, and be silly. If you know the words to the song go a head a sing along, again, I do not care if you can or can not sing, its all about feeling the joy and the happiness within. When you are singing and dancing around how can you not help but feel happiness and joy.

So the next time you start to feel a negative emotion turn your favourite song on and dance, jump around, feel that joy within and radiate it out, and always remember The Sunshine Dwells in You.

Think Big- Your Goal List for 2011

As the New Year has just Arrived now is the time to start thinking about what it is you want to Manifest into your Life for this coming year.  I was talking to a friend the other day about Goals and what it is we both want to achieve for 2011. He told me to start writing down the things in my life  that I wanted to attract, and or achieve he explained,  it can be anything I want, whether it is a house, a relationship, a job etc the only requirement is that it has to be BIG.

As I am a 27 year old man who has always been to afraid to learn how to drive,  I wrote it down as one of my goals for this year. After I wrote it down I realized it was not big enough, through the Law of Attraction, we can BE DO or Have Anything we desire, we have to focus on the thing we want as though we already have it  (to focus on the end result and not the process) I realized that when I wrote down Learn how to Drive I was in fact writing down a process and not an end result.

So instead I erased Learn how to Drive  and I replaced it with  the type of car I would like to own, and even then that was big, I didn't write down just any old car, I wrote down a Red Sports Car (of a certain Make and Model).

So whatever it is in your life that you want to attract and or achieve THINK BIG if it is a relationship you would like to attract do not just write down:

Goal List for 2011

I want a Boyfriend/Girlfriend

Instead write down:

 I want a Relationship with my Soul Mate

Next write down the qualities and characteristics you would like in Your Soulmate. for ex

Very Sweet
Very Kind
Very Loving
Very Gentle
 Honest
Very Spiritual
Very Funny

As you can tell those are a few of the things that I am looking for in someone, as everyone is different not everyone is looking for the same thing, but I would hope that they would be looking for at least a  few of the same characteristics, as who wouldn't want to be with someone sweet loving honest etc, remember with your list you can be as specific as you want.

If your like me and you want to manifest a car, do not just write down any old car write down the exact car    (Make and Model) that you would like to own no matter what the price is. Again don't just write down:

Goal List for 2011


I want a Honda Civic (unless of course that is the car you truly want to own)

Instead write down:

I want to own a Mercedes Benz

If you would like to manifest a new job/career or even if you love your current job right now, again Think Big

When starting your own company do not just think Small Business think Big Business. Visualize every detail about the Business you would like to own, write down the exact number of  employees you would like to have, the products you would like to sell,  the annual income  you would like your business to make  and even write down the number of customers you would like to have.

Goal List for 2011


(Your Business) has over 1000 employees
(Your Business) makes over 1 million Dollars a year in Sales
(Your Business ) has over 500,000 Customers

 If you love your  current job  right now and you want to stay with it you can still Think Big, write down the annual salary you would like to make no matter how much it is. See yourself rising to the top of the Company see every aspect of your life that you want to live.

These are just a few examples of how to write a goal list and at the same time thinking Big and remember what ever it is you truly want in life, Stay focused., no matter what is going on in your life right now , you are the creator  and the author of your life   and your only limited by your mind. And Always Remember the Sunshine Dwells in You...
