Steps on the Path to Wisdom

I want to encourage you all to believe that even though these times seem to be confusing, upsetting and it seems like at moments that we’re all taking a giant step backwards that in fact it’s going to lead to something that will resolve global conflict as it has been known in the past.

These times call for solutions by wise people and you can be one of them. To begin with, try to make an effort to practice the feeling of optimism, if you don’t naturally feel that way, every day for at least 1 minute. It can be any time of day and the feeling needs to be accompanied by thoughts of optimism as well - not just a physical feeling exclusively while you are worrying about other things - see. It has to be a full commitment to at least 1 minute every day.

It will of course improve your life and eventually you’ll notice things around you seem to get better as well. 

Also for those of you who want something to say, this is what I recommend you say, first of course asking for all the most benevolent energies for you. 

Then say, “I request that my world in which I live become better, more pleasant and easier in the most benevolent way for me now. Resulting in the most benevolent outcome.” 

Now the reason we say it like that is because, yes it’s a request for yourself* but it also effects the world around you - alright. Goodlife

Predictions: The End Of The World As You Have Known It

The end of the world insofar as struggle, pain, violence and all the rest is at hand. It has already begun but it does not mean that it is the end. It means that overlapping that end which has also already begun is a new world that will be more about benevolence, kindness, acknowledgement, appreciation, respect and understanding and yes - love.

This new world has already begun and is already influencing people and places. It's just not as loud, so to speak, as the old world's ways but over time you will see that it becomes more noticeable and develops into a place that you would want to be. So, let it be and know that the best is yet to come.

2011 Predictions: Choose

2011 is going to be a year of choice. The most major choice insofar as your spiritual self, your feeling self and impacting your physical self will be presented in this video. I think that you will be able to handle the choice fine but will you be able to live with it? I believe you will.

A Valuable Service

This is a time now when we are faced with choices. We can assume this or gravitate to that. We can accept this or resign ourselves to that. We can welcome this or we can be depressed by that.

There is something I've been doing for awhile and it requires an effort on my part given the facts of the world as they are presented to us not only by our observations at times but frequently by the news reports that are so prevalent in our society - and that thing is that I've been practicing optimism.

I've mentioned that here before several times but I'm mentioning it again today because it is sometimes feeling like a uphill struggle. Oh, gotta be optimistic - you understand.

It's not always easy but there's a reason. Do you know that it is in the nature of being cheerful that things will be attracted, you see. It functions like a magnet. It is possible to attract good things to happen for you.

Also there is another factor of it and that is that it automatically puts you into service where you are providing good things for others. Oh granted you'll meet the person from time to time who might make fun or a joke out of the fact that you're cheerful when there is plenty of reasons not to be but you'll also meet many people who will be uplifted and cheered by the fact that they met someone who's cheerful.

Now I know you've had the experience of meeting someone who's cheerful and it does tend to leave you with a good feeling even if at first you don't feel comfortable with it because it is out of the ordinary these days but once upon a time it wasn't so out of the ordinary. It was in fact so ordinary that people took it for granted.

So, I'd like you to practice on it and I promise I won't keep bangin away at you about optimism. I've just found that at times it improves the quality of my life and I receive the personal satisfaction of having improved the quality of other people's lives by being optimistic.

Give it a try and see if it is of value to you and others and remember it isn't always necessary to be optimistic every moment ;-) I know I find that to be difficult too but give it a try and see if you can be optimistic sometimes.

Goodlife.
