The Secret to LIFE ... and LIVING!!!

What is your perspective of life? If life is not filled with joy, presence, and love ... read on!!
Happy October everyone!!
Ah, I love fall … the leaves are changing, the pellet stove is going, the coffee tastes incredibly yummy this cool morning … my heart is joyful …
And, my heart is not joyful for any of the above reasons … it is overflowing with joy because THAT is the state of being I choose (from the inside). And as I have chosen this state, I am at a space of bliss and love for the perspective in which I see the world … the result is my world is seen through filters of joy, presence, and love.
This is an inside – out perspective.
I CHOOSE my state of being, then with that as the filter, I live life … and life comes at me … yet when life is seen through the filters YOU create inside yourself, you are unstoppable in life … really!
Can you think of someone who is most always in a great space. Smiling … laughing … enjoying life. No matter what comes their way, they just handle it … and those are the ones who seem to have all the ‘good’ things come their way … have all the ‘blessings’ bestow upon themselves.
Now, think of someone who never has anything go their way. They have the worst ‘luck’ … everything bad happens to them … and they will tell you about all the misfortune which has been bestowed upon them … and they usually have a crowd of people around them who also seem to consistently be in the same place …
Now, which one are you? Are you a victim of life or are you a master of life.
The first example is someone who chooses to be a winner in life … they create a state of being coming from the inside out (the inside out perspective) … Their victories create more victories … which creates a smile on their face which never seems to end … and they seem to create people just like them to surround themselves with …
The second example is someone who looks to outside circumstances to determine how they get to be in life (the outside-in perspective), and they continue to feed the misfortune with a steady diet of whining, pouting, complaining … and those people find others just like them …
Now, I choose to be empowered in me, which creates an inside out way of being. Those whom I work with develop that ‘muscle’ to shift their perspective in life. The ironic thing about life is that babies live from the inside out … they are just love and that is how they create life! Yet the process of growing up crushes that and creates a space of outside in living. And it takes a bit of unlearning to get you back … to shift the perspective by deep awareness of the stories and the impact these stories have on your ‘created life.’
This week, look at the stories you create in life. Do they create an empowered state of being OR a dis-empowered state of being?
If you are dis-empowered, it might be the time to look at those stories and shift them. And a master coach could definitely be an asset to quickly move you into an inside-out perspective on life.
AND, you may be in an empowered life … awesome!! Keep up the great state of being!!!
So create an amazing week … and thank you for reading this and playing fully in life!!
