Does This Squirrel Have Something You Lost?

While you watch the video below, ponder this question: here we are on the last day of January and have you consistently moved toward achieving the resolutions you made on January First??? Or did you lose your motivation (which the squirrel in the video demonstrates plenty of!) in the mistaken belief that keeping a resolution only requires will power?

 

What’s wrong with “will power”? Isn’t that what keeps us going toward our goals? Don’t you need will power to quit cigarettes or stay on a diet or keep a commitment to going to the gym regularly, or to be a more loving parent or spouse?

Will power is fine to get you off the ground. But the problem is that it is short-lived. What you really need is to learn how to tap into the massive power of the universal mind and access the true power of your own “Will” rather than the relatively weak “will power” most of us grew up learning how to use.

Be aware that the squirrel in the video did not wander past that yard one day, see the entire “Rube Goldberg” style contraption the humans had erected, hop on board the starting point and make its way easily toward the goal line and the reward. The humans set up one stage at a time, and each time the squirrel got a reward for getting that far. Slowly but surely, over the course of two weeks, the contraption grew and grew, and the clever squirrel raced on to the reward even though it was now further away. Set up incremental rewards for yourself to help yourself stay motivated! Don’t make the mistake of saying to yourself “This is the year I will be successful! No matter what” and then because you have not set up a series of goals to achieve, the dream seems far too difficult and impossible to achieve, so you give up almost right away.

Be-Happier Tip: TALK HAPPY and LIVE YOUR DREAMS

Are you happy? Most people answer “yeah, of course… well, I mean… sort of… I guess.”  If you’re tired of being in the majority (in other words miserable and stressed out most of the time!), shift your attitude right this minute from complaining about life to finding something happy to talk about. That change in attitude will help you vibrate on a much higher — and happier — frequency. It doesn’t even matter if you believe that every organic, inorganic, animal, vegetable or mineral, even dead things, vibrate constantly, and that we live in an energy comprised entirely of vibrating molecules. You don’t have to “believe” in gravity to have it act consistently in your life. It just does, and we all accept that if you toss an apple in the air it is not going to hover over your head unless it’s got a string or wire attached and something is holding it up. We know that because we can experience it easily in our life on a regular basis. But when it comes to our feelings and our state of mind, so many times we end up just feeling like a helpless victim of circumstances. And yet– guess what? — YOU are the one in control of how happy you are. Take a look at this charming and uplifting video clip from the film “South Pacific” — and I dare you to keep frowning!  Note that this is a special soundtrack with the original voice of the older woman, Juanita Hall – in the film her voice was dubbed because at that time, in the 1950s, it was a common practice to bring in a singer to dub the songs even when the actor /actress had a perfectly good singing voice!  That’s why many of the old musicals sound fake and “off” — we recognize that the talking person who bursts into song is suddenly not quite the same voice.  Anyway, enjoy this and leave a comment if you like it.

to your happiness,

Be-Happier Tip: Persist With Your Goals

   “Persistently think you can do what you want to do, and it will not be long before you find yourself actually doing that thing.” ~Raymond Holliwell, “Working with the Law”

Why is “persistence” so important? Isn’t it enough to set your goals and work at them when you can? Most of us lead busy lives, and often people have a full-time job and other commitments that take up the bulk of the day’s waking hours.

Yet, think of this, would you expect a tree to grow tall if it only grew a bit now and then when it felt like it, or wasn’t too busy doing something else? Of course not. The idea is ludicrous, isn’t it? A tree’s entire nature propels it to grow, to take nutrients from the soil, water and air, and to thrive for as long as it can. The tree in the photo was felled recently by a rainstorm in the wake of Irene. The owner cleared the road by chopping the tree into logs, and now the tree will serve another purpose.  Remember that nothing is created or destroyed, all energy just “is” now and forever, and simply changes form.

Learn to take advantage of those small blocks of time that you have each day. Even fifteen minutes a day, if used productively, can add up quickly to many hours devoted to a special goal such as studying a personal growth course, writing a book, sewing a quilt, tending a garden.  Look for ways to “persist” with what you really want to achieve in life, instead of finding excuses why there just isn’t enough time. We all have the same amount of time each day, so it’s a good idea to emulate successful people and use your time well.

Notice how Holliwell phrases that quote I included at the top of this post — CAN… WANT…DOING.   Three steps. Now go ahead and get started.

to your happiness and success,

Be-Happier Tip: turn up the volume!

If you were watching TV and the sound was too low… what would you do? Would you sit there, straining to hear? Or would you grab the remote and turn up the volume?

I’m betting you’d turn it up!

But in our daily lives, we often live at a low “volume” level, accepting low energy or a ho-hum attitude as being “good enough.”

Do you want to remain stressed, unhappy, exhausted, drained and tired out by your life circumstances?

Or do you want to experience bliss, joy, happiness and abundance?

Hmmm. Quite a choice isn’t it? And the thing we often forget is that the results we get are completely determined by the choice we make.

So if you’re experiencing Life at a low volume level, grab your mental remote control and AMP THINGS UP! Don’t just sit there, feeling like a victim or that you don’t have money to do the things you want.
