Self Life Coaching: Prayers, Hopes and Dreams

Words are energy in motion. They speak directly to the conscious and subconscious mind, which is where we desire the shifts to occur in order to manifest change in our world. Energy always does better when it is reinforced through a larger supply. Enlightenment brings with it that larger supply or a greater degree of light. "Plugging" into that light, so to speak, by focusing our attention, listening to and absorbing the energy that comes through one who is already enlightened and has achieved mastery brings enlightenment and healing. It in effect, will "speed" the progress of those who are less enlightened.

"Thought is Fire; use its concentrated power to consume all obstacles to achievement."
Paramahansa Yogananda

Step Two

Take some time each day to gather all of your deepest desires for yourself and your SELF EMPOWERMENT on this earth and pull them all to the forefront of your mind. Focus on them. Concentrate on them. Really SEE and FEEL them. Yes, bring the physical manifestations to the forefront, but more importantly, bring how you want to FEEL and how you WANT TO LIVE YOUR LIFE, how YOU WANT TO BE to the forefront of your mind.

Ok, let's take all that is in the forefront of your mind and work on a VISION BOARD. You do this by drawing the pictures of what you want or cutting out pictures from a magazine of what you would like to be and you attach them to a poster board or your refrigerator door where you can see it everyday and CONNECT TO THE FEELING AND THE VISUAL OF HAVING IT ALL! Add to it each day.

I am a big believer in the power of the written word. So, sometimes my vision boards are a collage of written words and empowering statements. You can try this as your vision board too. Experiment with different methods and see what works for you. Also, see which place in your environment is the best place for your vision board to "Live". Is it the kitchen? Is it the bathroom mirror? Is it the wall in front of me as I wake up in the morning? Is it the ceiling that I first look at as I open my eyes in the morning?
