Happy Birthday to Me- Time to Check My Course

Posted in personal growth, Philosophy, tagged "Adventures in Palmistry", "Magick for Pennies: Affordable Metaphysics for Everyone", "The Lands That Lie Between", Catherine, Foresight, Foresight Publications, goals, Happy Birthday, Manifesting Something Better, The Practical Empath- Surviving and Thriving as a Psychic Empath on July 22, 2015| Leave a Comment »

I’m typing here in the wee small hours of my 57th birthday and I’m thinking a lot about goals right now

About goals that I’ve had and ones that I will have

About goals achieved and ones that I’m still working on

About goals that it’s time to let go of and ones that I need to keep on trucking on

And a birthday is a fine time to take stock. To look at what you’ve done, and what you want to do. To set some goals and put other ones aside to make room for them

It’s been another challenging year, but still I’m moving on the path to my dreams. And today, in and amongst all of the festivities, I’m making time to figure out where I am now, and where I’m going next, and what I need to do to get there.

When you sail a boat, 90% of the time the boat will not be heading directly for your destination. You need to tack from side to side, in order to catch the wind in your sails to propel you forwards. You get where you’re going by tacking, but also keeping your eye on your destination and bringing yourself back on course

Life’s kinda like that too. A lot of tacking and then getting back on course

A lot of people kind of drift through life and then wonder “what happened?” I’m finding that the key to accomplishing things I’m glad to have done is to know what I want, set some goals to make that happen, and check in to make sure that I’m still on course

So that’s what I’ll be doing today. Setting my new destination, and bringing myself back on course.

Happy birthday to me and happy my birthday to you as well

Are you on course?

Big Enough Goals, per Proctor(the Monday Inspiration)

“Set a goal to achieve something that is so big, so exhilarating that it excites you and scares you at the same time. It must be a goal that is so appealing, so much in line with your spiritual core, that you can’t get it out of your mind. If you do not get chills when you set a goal, your not setting big enough goals.”

Bob Proctor

We’ve talked about pursuing our dreams and letting our life missions give power to our goals…

We’ve talked about the Dragons of Resistance and how Kaizen can be our friend

We’ve talked about dreaming Big and about feeling like we’re too small to accomplish anything…

We’re on our way!

Now, has anyone besides me noticed that I talk about writing your goals down a lot…?

Well, there’s a reason for that.

There’s been quite a lot of studies on how people succeed or fail, how they achieve their goals or no, on how they accomplish brilliant, impossible amazing things.

People no different than you and me.

And you know one thing they found? They found that writing down what you want to achieve makes a difference in quite a number of ways.

They found that high school students who wrote down goals were more likely to complete school, end up with high paying jobs, and achieve their dreams.
They found that people who wrote down affirmations and posted them around where they saw them frequently (by the bathroom mirror, over the dressing table, on the car dashboard) were more likely to be able to break out of destructive beliefs and changed to more positive beliefs more easily;
They found that people who wrote an affirmation a thousand times were able to more easily clear out a destructive habit and reprogram a better one (ever wonder why your teacher made you write on the board?…)
They found that people who wrote down a list of things that they wanted to do were more likely to accomplish them even if they put the list away and don’t look at it…

Wow…

And all it took was a few moments and a little ink.

Have you thought about writing down what you want to achieve next?…

Making Your Dreams Come True-A Star to Steer By

Posted in Energywork, Living in a Magickal Universe, manifestation, Metaphysical Basics, Philosophy, tagged Energywork, form an intention, goal setting, goals, Life Mission, living in a magickal world, Making your Dreams come true, manifestation, metaphysical, metaphysical theory, practical skills for living in a magickal world on January 17, 2010| Leave a Comment »

So now you’re on your way to making your dreams come true.

But, do you know where you’re going?

Those of you who’ve read my work or heard me talk in the past may be aware that I believe that each and every one of us (yes, you too!) has a mission in life. Something unique that you bring to the Party of Life that no one else can bring.

Finding out your Life Mission puts a new spin on setting goals and making your dreams come true….

You can set goals:

because they’re required by others (need to certify in CPR for a job);
because your body demands them (it’s time to bulk down);
because they’re a unique opportunity (who would have thought that I could learn morris dancing at half price if I sign up now?) ;
because they’re fun (alligator wrestling night at adult education? how can I pass on that?)

But goals set to live your Life Mission are extra special.

Your Life Mission is what you’re here to do. Because of this, things that are part of your mission tend to be more:

fun;
exciting;
juicy;
(fill in your favorite positive adjective here);

That’s not to say that life mission goals are all joy and fairy dust. Many times , you’ll find stages in reaching for your life mission to be hard work or temporarily frustrating.

But the goals that you set for your Life Mission not only move you towards being more perfectly You ( which is a blast) but also tend to feel good/ right in the process…

I’m not saying that all goals need to be about your Life Mission. I think dancing the Carioca or snake charming or learning a new language can be a wonderful thing and make your life better.

I’m just saying that the goals you set with your Life Mission in mind tend to be the ones that make the most difference to you and the world around you…

So, what are you here to do?

We’ll be looking at that more in the future.

Til then

Catherine
