Make sure that you really, really want what you think you want

6/12/2019

Thoughts are things and things are thinks. Ever heard this before? We cause our experience through our habitual thinking and feeling. We can control these experiences, because there is infinite Intelligence and boundless Wisdom already contained within us. We are born with this inner knowledge, even though we are not aware of this gift.

However, we must unlock the door and not stand in our own way. We must get in touch with this hidden source of inspiration. We let our wisdom lay dormant because we don’t know that we possess all there is to possess naturally. Once we start contacting this power through deep loving thought and reason, it will lift us up, inspire us, heal us, and guide us. It will show us the way if we’d only listen carefully and act on our instincts.

Therefore, make sure that you really, really want what you think you want. To state it again, your thoughts, feelings, and innermost convictions are what create your reality. So do not think anything but what is in line with your desires. Be clear and focused and most of all, imagine the best and good for all only!

Unkind people

5/29/2019

It took me some time not to react when people were unkind or hurtful. The ones who try to manipulate and control your every action by shutting you down and making you feel less than.

Honestly, I’m still working on some of my week spots, the buttons that seem to be easily pushed. I’m still nurturing the wounds that were afflicted on me a long time ago, or were they? Was it me that allowed it to affect me? Of course.

However, it takes practice not to take others' insensitive comments personally. It also takes deep thought to see the truth that these actions aren’t about me or you, but it is the other’s mistaken sense that makes them lash out and act improper. It’s their pain, their insecurities – so why allow them to touch our hearts?

We must remember, when the people we’re dealing with seem difficult, manipulative, controlling, rude or unpleasant, remember, it’s not about me or you, but it’s about them and their mental distorted pains.

The “higher” thought to hold in mind is, that they are by nature as good and perfect as we are. They, however, have lost their true character just for the time being. We must keep that thought, not as a judgment but with love, and we must not waver. Soon they will either respond to this truth and our loving attitude, or they will move on. We are the cause of everything that befalls us everyday of our lives. We can change our experience. What a freeing thought!

Don’t succumb to emotions

5/22/2019

“Don’t succumb to emotions. Emotions are the wild card that will keep you short of true reason.”

What do I mean by that? When we get emotional about any issue, we tend to react. We take things personally. We are being sensitive and react emotionally instead of stepping back and thinking clearly about the problem at hand. We make rash decisions instead of reasoning calmly and carefully, and then acting responsibly and appropriately.

Once we are fully engulfed in our feelings we no longer think reasonably or rationally. Instead, we blow everything out of proportion. This vortex of negativity and wrong feelings will suck us into a deeper, darker state of mind.

Therefore, let us take a step back and observe before making a crucial decision. Let us think wisely and caringly about what was said and done and only then react in a thoughtful and loving way.

Why do we procrastinate?

5/15/2019

Have you asked yourself this question? We know what needs to be done. We acknowledge the fact that finishing a project would give us the sense of satisfaction or at least we could check it off the list.

Is it that we don't care for the project we are working on? Do we think there is too much to do and we just don't get around to it? Or, are we simply afraid of failure? Why do we see every unaccomplished idea as failure? Could we, instead, realize that these ideas are tests, adventures, or at least steps towards growth? Can we appreciate learning and gaining precious experience in its place?

Since there is no cure (or pill) for procrastination, there is only one remedy. Be a doer not a talker! We must get moving and do the things we said we would do. Not because someone else has expectations of us, but because it will help us to achieve a sense of accomplishment and pride. One by one, we can check the items off the list.

However, remember, we don't have to do something we don't enjoy, there is always a choice. The goals you set for yourself are your goals. You can change them at any time!

Good will return to us…

5/8/2019

What can we do today to make someone’s life a little better? How can we support and nurture a person that might be feeling sad or less than, especially in these uncertain times? How can we help them get back to a more positive outlook?

We can give of our time, love, and support, and we can listen. We can encourage and uplift them enforcing the faith in the Allness of Good, no matter what the appearance. We can spread our goodwill and light into dark corners and bring joy to the weary.

The law of attraction will give back to us in exact proportion. Like a boomerang it will repay our good deeds. Remember: When we do good (with an honest heart and without expectations), good will return to us. Always.

Let us make sure we see only the good…

5/1/2019

We have our own sense of beauty and comfort. We know what we love and adore. We recognize what makes us feel good. We instinctively sense what improves our well-being. Therefore, let us make sure we see only the good and the beautiful in our environment, no matter what the appearance.

Make your immediate surrounding a lovely place, with love and kindness as your companions. This is how we can change what’s going on in this world. It takes all of us to create peace on earth; one person at a time.

Let us repeat every day: “I am feeling good. I am feeling strong. I am full of joyous anticipation. I am ready to absorb and experience life to the fullest and I am grateful for this new day that allows me to learn everything about myself and the Allness of Good.”

Our sense of Aging

4/24/2019

The sense of 'aging' is one of the deepest and most ingrained beliefs we carry and one of the most difficult senses to heal and correct. Aging seems real. We can see it, we can feel it – yet, it’s an illusion if you think of your life as an endless, wonderful, unlimited journey.

While we remain on this physical plane or dimension, we must ask ourselves: How can I achieve a more youthful attitude? How can I continue to be the best I can be? How can I contribute to a healthy life? How can I stay active and be a vital part of society?

The truth is, age is nothing but a sense of time passing, a picture of mind maturing, and should be enjoyed and cherished. See yourself as wiser and more complete, strong and advanced, making better choices.

Don't wait until you're sixty, seventy, or eighty to ask about the meaning of life. Ask now and act on it. The application of new, fresh thoughts, a better mental attitude, and a love for life is vital to keep you young at heart. Your mind, spirit, lives forever, it is the important part of you! It is the important part of all of us! Be well!
With Love, ULRIKE

Trying to “fix” others

4/17/2019

My daily routine includes observing my thoughts and feelings, positive or negative, and trying to correct the undesirable, sometimes destructive ones; the thoughts that spin you into the darkness of pessimism. Instead, I am determined to keep my thinking without criticism of myself and others. It’s certainly a daily mental workout!

Cleaning out our mental chambers from wrong thoughts and feelings should keep us busy enough. There is no need to try to “fix” others, even close friends or relatives. Even though our intentions are good and all we want is to be helpful, we must allow them to find their own way, their own path. They will get there in their proper time. Forcing our help upon them will enable them, or hinder them, in their unfoldment. We only can support and love them and must resist the temptation of getting involved in their affairs.

Because the Law of Individuality is always in action, we are only responsible for our own mental house cleaning. Like everything else in life, right thinking (thoughts according to Universal Laws) and positive thinking (thoughts that are full of hope, faith, love, and life) must be practiced and new ideas must be tested by each and every one of us. When applied correctly, the results will be health, wealth, and happiness – and of course this positive, life giving attitude will spread to our loved ones and help them on their journey.

What growth do we encounter through the experience of pain?

4/10/2019

What growth do we encounter through the experience of pain, be it physical or emotional? Can we become grateful for our pains? What do they teach us? Do we see the lesson?

Pain is a signal that we have been on the wrong path, maybe made a mistake, or didn’t take care of our needs. It shows us that we need to make corrections, physically or mentally. The fear associated with pain must be stilled before we can think clearly and reasonably.

Therefore, I ask with all sincerity: May the lesson be revealed to me. May I become stronger, and may I learn from this experience - and then I move on with joyful expectations of better days to come. There is always light coming our way, after a period of darkness. It’s like the dawn following the night…waking up to a new and glorious day.

When fear creeps up, we must remember that all is already good. I pull myself into the NOW and remember that worrying and being afraid never solved any problem.

What we must do, however, is to take a step back and acknowledge the existence of the Allness of Good. Always keep hope alive, look at what’s in front of you and know that you can handle anything, because it’s just a test, ready to be tackled. And let me assure you that one day we will see this truth: There never was anything to fear in the first place. It was already good all along!

Good daily reminder:

3/28/2019

Good daily reminder:
Every problem that we shove under the rug eventually must be cleaned out. I know it seems easier to procrastinate and save it for another day, but problems don’t go away magically. All problems must be solved eventually.

NOW is the time to start our mental house cleaning, and always has been. Why not tackle the challenge immediately? Not addressing the issues only makes them bigger over time. The illusion magnifies and eventually becomes a heavy burden, so why not get started?

Problems aren’t really problems, but lessons. They send us a message and show up because we still have some remanence of wrong thought and attitude.

However, if we purify our thoughts daily, step by step, it will become a habit in no time and all problems will lessen and eventually disappear into their native nothingness. Let us enjoy our ability to make right choices and live by them. Let us clear our mental chambers of all the dusty, outgrown habits. I’m feeling lighter already!
