    Life is a school to the wise man and an enemy to the fool

    What you can’t be with won’t let you be.

    What you resist, persists.

    When you “try” you haven’t extracted the wisdom/learned the lesson from the past.

    Are you good with the idea that today, this is the best it gets? If not, you have inner work to do. Most of
    us look to having a new car, job, boat, more money, clothes, degree to feel successful. While all are
    great the feel good experience usually dwindles and off we go to get another fix. Sort of equates to a
    pail being filled with water and it never gets filled as there is a hole in the bottom of the pail.

    A client shared a really important concept with me today: Either I go within or I go without. Feeling
    good about her self isn’t dependent on external sources. She’s realized true happiness is an inside
     job. Everything else is situational.

    Do you beat up on yourself? Really hard on you, are you perfectionist? Criticize yourself? Do you have
    tendencies to focus on what’s wrong, the negatives in life? Are you listening to an authority figure’s
    voice in the background? Has your own ‘voice’ taken over where they left off?

    When you’re experiencing life suck moments – notice what voices you’re listening to inside your
    head. Are they voices of authority, perhaps of the past? Maybe they are in your current life too. Are
    they negating you? Putting you down, telling you that you’re not enough, worthless, too much trouble,
    not meeting their expectations (you get the gist). You might notice if you’re hearing your own voice
    and listen carefully, is it empowering you, supporting you being a great person or does it sound like
    the other voices?

    By listening to the propaganda (the negating voices/thoughts) and feeling the feelings attached to  
    those events the law of attraction has similar events occurring to you. Look outside of yourself and    
    you can be sure your inner world is a direct reflection. Chaos all around you – perhaps happening to
    you too? You can bet it’s going on internally.

    We attempt to project our ‘issues’ onto others and then focus our attention away from ourselves and   
    on them – a manipulative way of disguising our own ‘issues’ and a great way to distract ourselves
    from doing the internal work.
