Empower yourself to make good decisions
Go for it! Really! This is the perfect time….
What? You’re afraid?
You’re afraid of making the wrong choice and regretting it later?
Hmmm, You are NOT alone.
You’ve been slimed: psychic attack & energy vampires
It’s interesting that this should appear in my life right now (the LoA working wonders!) as I was just having a conversation yesterday about the lack of integrity out there, which led me to share a video I made last year about internet “Trolls.”
This video by Deborah King (author of Truth Heals) is another great take on the toxic person, and the types of psychic attack that may show up because of them.
What do you think? Do you agree with this? Disagree? Think it’s a load of cr@p? Experienced it before? Share your thoughts.
Want to see the video that sparked some conversation on Facebook? “Don’t Feed The Trolls” from January 2010. Watch it here. I also write an entire section about Energy Vampires in my book The Now of Happiness. Learn more or purchase a copy here.
Creating Your Successful New Year’s New You Plan
January 2011 call
It’s a new year, a new decade and we just had a new moon…NOW is the perfect time to sit down and map out how you want your year to go, and how you want yourself to grow!
If you’re like me, you crave having some kind of plan, for everything! You’re probably a tad bit of a perfectionist and you don’t like surprises (you can’t plan surprises).
If that sounds like you, my next Authentic Self Nourishment call will be perfect for you! It’s all about fully understand YOU, how you react to things, how you make decisions, and what you want so that you can design a plan that works for you.
I also have a very special Bonus Expert joining us in a few weeks to teach you how to further understand how you relate to the world, and how it’s affecting your results (see below).
The next Authentic Self Nourishment call (formerly known as “the Premium Membership”) is set for Jan. 24th at 7pm CST. (8pm EST/5pm PST).
Here are some of the things that I’m talking about
(I’m so excited about this call!!!!–note the extra “!”)
- The 4 types of Action Patterns (which one are you?) This will help you to determine how to plan for success, not failure.
- How to play to your strengths to have you ultimate year!
- The 4 Stages of ANY major catalystic shift, and exactly how to take any life circumstance (cancer, job loss, cheating spouse, lottery win) and use it to propel you forward, not sink back into depression!
What’s coming up…
I’m also speaking with Jennifer Sheldon, a well known astrologist and founder of FemCentral, (http://jenniferlshelton.com/) to teach you how to create and read your birth chart.
She did mine a few months ago and I know understand myself and my reactions to things way better. It has helped me to be easier on myself, and not be so hard or judgmental of my own actions.
As a special bonus, I am picking a random name from the Authentic Self Nourishment members and they will get a personal chart reading from her, as she uses it as an example for everyone else.
I know you want to be part of this and these calls are ONLY for Members!
Top 10 Fave Books of 2010
I completely forgot to blog this week, I’ve been wrapped up in getting my book into production and getting my Happiness Movement site up and running!
As 2010 reaches the beginning of the end (can you believe it?) I am thinking about my Top 10′s! This week I decided to share with you my Top 10 Books of the year.
I will likely do lists for Top 10 Books of the Decade, Top 10 Quotes of 2010, and Top 10 Favorite People too, so look for those through this month.
In no particular order, here are the best books that I’ve read in 2010…
- Trust Your Vibes: Secret tools for six-sensory living, Sonia Choquette
FANTASTIC resource for discovering your authentic self and your intuition. This book made me comfortable with reaching out to my own spirit guides and trusting in a higher source of guidance. - Be Happy: Release the power of happiness within you, Robert Holden
I’m currently reading it and finding it slow going because I have to keep stopping to write out quotes and passages! It’s a very “common” sense approach to a topic that many have written about (including myself). - Excuses Begone: How to change life-long, self-defeating habits, Dr. Wayne Dyer
If you find yourself stuck and aren’t sure what to do, Get This Book! This book will force you to get real and get back into your life. Take a No Excuses Approach to 2011…it’s your life! - The Joy Diet: Ten practices for a happier life, Martha Beck
Always necessary in any personal development library, Martha Beck is no-nonsense, sarcastic and funny! I love her. This is NOT a diet book in the traditional sense. It’s 10 steps to living a happier life. (I love the step that involves “treats.”) - Steering by Starlight: Finding your right life, not matter what, Martha Beck
Oh, Martha, how I love you! This is another amazing book. She gives you the courage (and a plan) to leave behind all the Junk that isn’t working and start living a happier, healthier life.
- Supercoach: Ten secrets to transform anyone’s life, Michael Neill
Another “10 Step” book, this one also written in down-to-earth language. Michael has an NLP background and has a way of explaining things that makes you go, “Huh. Why didn’t I think of that?” I love his section on making decisions! - Creating Money: Attracting abundance, Sanaya Roman
I read this in the spring and wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I did. It’s a Law of Attraction book, specifically about wealth and prosperity. It’s full of exercises and positive affirmations. You’ll love this book if you life Louise Hay. - Blink: The power of thinking without thinking, Malcolm Gladwell
Another author I cannot get enough of! (Please write more books Mr. Gladwell!) He takes concepts that seem almost mystical and with real life examples, he breaks them down so the normal person can relate. I love how he wrote a book about intuition, using science and real life to explain it. - You Can Heal Your Life, Louise Hay
I just finished this book and I LOVED IT, even though I resisted reading it for a long time. It’s full of positive affirmations and ways to get over the humps that life throws your way. I highly recommend you buy the DVD/Book set (it’s only a dollar or two more expensive than the books itself and I felt so peaceful and joyous after watching it!) The book also includes her affirmations for physical ailments. I was amazed at how many of my own health “problems” came down to an inner belief about myself. Most of them were right on with what I thought to be true, deep down (but not any more
) - Outliers: The story of success, Malcolm Gladwell
This book was about those who are incredibly successful (he features Bill Gates) and why some succeeded and others didn’t. Again, it’s a fascinating mix of science, real life and the seemingly mystical. It will help you understand what it takes to be successful.
Honourable Mentions to Effortless Success an audio program by Michael Neill and Ask Y our Guides: Connecting to your divine support system by Sonia Choquette.
It was really hard to choose just 10 (or 12), but these are the books that I didn’t abandon half way through AND I constantly found myself quoting them on Facebook, raving about them to my friends and/or using them for reference in my Premium Membership and coaching calls. As you can see, when I like an author I tend to really like them (and obsess, crush on, fall in love with…which makes me their new best friend because I buy ALL their stuff!)
Check them out as you usher in an even more successful 2011!
Even better, check out my book The Now of Happiness: Your Happiness Formula on January 11, 2011! Get on the red-carpet list so you’re the first to receive a copy.
Vulnerability as the Key to Success
I can so relate to this talk!
I used to feel exactly the same way about being vulnerable, but she’s right. You need to be vulnerable to success, in order to be successful. That’s why it is so hard for people to take that first step.
>Take 20 minutes and watch this. It’s worth it.
