We are inundated daily with so many messages, through media and even our relationships with others. Often we do not take the time to filter out what messages truly resonate with us. Many times we are absorbing these messages and applying them to our lives as if we didn't have a choice. It is important to ask ourselves the questions that will hep us clarify why we do the things we do. Why are they are important to us and why we continue going through the motions even when it doesn't align with how we really feel?. Are these our ideas or am I simply maintaining the status quo because of what is expected of me?

In our busy lives sometime chaos ensues and we can find ourselves swept up in it. To be sure that we stay our course we must learn to recognize when we are being distracted from our purpose and our goals. Reminding ourselves to be the change that we want to see in the world by not placing our energy on the chaos around us but to focus it on what we wish to emulate to the world.

Our brain believes what we tell it! In this episode we talk about how the brain does not have a true concept of time because in truth we can revisit a memory or even visit a planned future event in our mind and bring ourselves into feelings and emotions that are created at the time of the event as though we are experiencing it in the now.
When we immerse ourselves in gratitude we are creating the reality of how we perceive the external events that happen in our lives. Coming from this elevated emotion helps us to make better decisions and bring positive change to our lives. By doing this we are setting our own frequency and in doing so we are projecting our energy instead of absorbing the energy of others. We set the precedents for what we experience no matter what kinds of challenges arise.

When we are setting goals we are sometimes oblivious to the changes that we have to make within ourselves in order to get us to a place of being able to go for our dreams and goals. We have to determine what is keeping us from getting into the action phase of our plan. Observing our own behaviors and discovering what it is in within ourselves that prevent us, the habits that we create and maintain that do not serve our higher purpose. This is the precursor to any plan we make. It is through gradual changes we are able to view ourselves as capable of making the necessary changes and our ability to sustain them.

We often stay in serious mode so much of the time wrapped up in our thoughts of responsibilities and daily routines. It is an essential part of our mental health to laugh and embrace those joyful moments.
