 Greetings!
Are you as free as you want to be? Some people think freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose, as Kris Kristofferson put it.
These folks confuse freedom with loss. So they resist freedom because they believe it will cost them everything they have.
Some people think they can only be happy and free when they're rich.
Every tabloid magazine and celebrity gossip show reveals the rich can be just as trapped by their job, addictions, delusions, or high-maintenance loved ones as anyone else. So what does it take to be truly free?
It happens in the choices you make moment by moment.
In today's articles, we'll look at some of the choices you can make right now for more happiness and freedom today, and in all the days to come.
Enjoy!

A is for Appreciating Yourself
Who Loves You, Baby?
If you want more love, abundance and freedom in the future, appreciate yourself now.
For example:
- Allow yourself to say "no" to stuff you don't want to do. Free yourself from the slavery of trying to please people who control you by withholding approval. This frees up tons of time and energy.
- When you begin or end a project, give yourself a gift. Have it gift-wrapped, if possible, and then unwrap it with the conscious intention of honoring yourself for starting or completing this project. Short on cash? Give yourself the gift of time: take an afternoon off to play, read, sneak off to a matinee... again, with the conscious intention of honoring yourself for starting or finishing the project.
- Before going to sleep each night, ask yourself, "What is one thing I did right today?" Whatever you did right, bless and congratulate yourself for having done it.
Would you like to appreciate yourself now?

B is for Be Here Now
Do You Live in the Past, Present or Future?
 You can find peace and freedom by realizing that whatever happened before, and whatever may happen ... in this moment, you're okay.
The past can never change. There is nothing to be done about it except:
- Forgive all concerned (including you)
- Move on
The future can never be certain. There is nothing to be done about it except:
- Do what you can do today
- Release your attachment to results, since you have no control over them
To stay in the present, you can:
- Soon after you wake up, ask yourself, "What is one thing I can do today that will give me joy?" - and then do it.
- Pause when you finish one task before going on to the next. Say "Pause" out loud to deepen into the moment. Then breathe in and breathe out 3 times.
- Before going to sleep, ask that everything that no longer serves you gets unplugged from you and plugged into Infinite Love. Imagine it's being done while you sleep.
Would you like to see everything you need to see to feel good about who you are and where you are in this moment?

C is for Change Your Routine
Are You in a Rut? 
If you want more freedom in your future, start changing your routine now.
Open up to more love, business, or fun by trying something new, or doing a favorite activity in a new way. For instance:
- Walk or drive to work using a different route. The change of scenery will wake you up and refresh your brain.
- If you have a favorite solo activity, start doing it with a group: join a book club; sign up for a cooking class; volunteer for a local film festival; find a sunset hike near you. Meetup has thousands of listings for local gatherings of people who share your interests.
- If you have a favorite group activity you would never dream of doing alone ... try doing it alone. You'll discover the delights of your own company, which frees you from the slavery of "I could never (fill in the blank) because I can't find anyone to do it with me."
Would you like to be free of all real and imagined limits now?
