"One person with a belief is equal to the force of 99 who have only interests." -John Stuart Mill, Philosopher, 19th century Writer This past month we have explored information related to the CD “Mind Mint”. You have learned about the power of your thoughts and beliefs, and if you listened to “Mind Mint,” then you have by now, examined the terrain of your mind, recognized the “weeds,” pulled them up, and replaced them with seeds of love, peace, joy and success. The final step is to take action in the physical world. Water the seeds of your new uplifting beliefs and they will sprout into thriving, flowering, lush plants. Ignore them and they will surely die. So it’s up to you to decide what you will give your attention to. Are you going to water the weeds of your mind, the negative repetitive thoughts that create internal distress, or are you going to water and nurture the seeds of love, joy, growth, appreciation? I welcome your questions, comments and/or insults and will be happy to post my response in the “Ask Ellen” section of the web site and I will also answer privately if you prefer. I love hearing your feedback so please share your thoughts and ideas!!
“Need I say to you that the height of the
mountains you climb is only a function of how high you believe you can
climb.” As you become the surveyor of the territory of your mind, make it a daily practice to “walk” through your inner kingdom, and look for new weeds and the return of any previous weeds”... They can be stubborn and hearty and require a keen eye and willingness to pull them OUT… (ouch). You may notice feeling some discomfort when thoughts or behaviors emerge that no longer suit the person you have become. Do not dwell in the suffering; rather notice the experience with an attitude of allowingness. Realize that you are growing, and that growth is not always comfortable at first. We grow accustomed to patterns - like walking a well worn path. It takes some energy to forge a new path, but your view will be fresh and fragrant and filled with adventure! Growth breaks us out of patterns that no longer suit who we are and who we are becoming. Previously unconscious responses, now conscious, cannot be performed robotically. Congratulations on your positive change. There is no turning back now. Keep on walking.
“A musician must make music, an artist must paint,
a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a
man (woman) can be, he(she) must be.” I wish you the best of life… joy, peace abundance, health, prosperity, and mostly love.
