This quote sends a clear and loud message: To think positively. The secret is to embrace this idea seriously because every thought you think is a cause and every condition is an effect.  You think positive thoughts (cause), you create positive results (effect)

Your thoughts are creating your reality. The best way to create a  lasting shifting of your paradigms is by paying attention to your habitual way of thinking and if you notice any negativity, shift it right away, to a positive thought. Joseph Murphy, the author of “The Power of your subconscious Mind, says, “never finish a negative statement. Reverse it immediately and wonders will happen in your life. He adds, “think good, and good follows. Think evil, and evil follows. You are what you think all day long.”

What is important to understand is that your habitual way of thinking came from your childhood. However, you can shift your negative childhood programming by paying attention and making the effort to renew your mind to transform your life.  Your progress will be determined by your willingness to be disciplined so you don’t accept, any longer, old negative ways of thinking.

How do you form the habit of thinking positively?

1. Monitor your emotions. They are telling you if you are sending the right vibration. It is impossible to feel happy and at the same time be thinking negatively. As you spot yourself in a negative state of mind, make the effort right away to shift it.

2. Reframe any negative stories, first in your mind and then through the spoken language. Any time you say anything negative repeat “cancel, clear” and then create an affirmation.

3. Be in a constant state of gratitude. Always see the glass half-full, looking for the positive side of each experience.

I am starting a powerful 12-week Tele Seminar series “Renew Your Mind to Prosper”, which will guide you on the path to universal principles that once understood and applied, the natural consequence is a happy, harmonious, and prosperous life.

Affirm: I renew my mind to transform my life

“When you embrace God’s calling in your life you become the witness of miracles.”

This quote came to me as an inspiration because of all the innumerable miracles that I have witnessed as a result of the work I do as a coach and trainer to help people to maximize their full potential. Also, working with our Glorious Being Center’s project in Ghana, I have experienced the synchronicity of events every day. I feel like there is an invisible hand arranging everything for us.

One of those amazing miracles happened last year when I was at a Panera Bread getting ready for a meeting to discuss the self-sustaining housing options for the children that we are helping in Ghana, Africa. Right before the meeting started someone whom I had seen before at a networking meeting, came to me and asked if she could join our meeting.

She explained that she was supposed to meet someone but the person did not show up. I said to her you are most welcome to sit with us, but I want to warn you that by the time we finish our meeting you might have become a volunteer of our organization. She laughed and she said OK. For two hours she listened to the details of our project and was very impressed with our initiative. As she was about to get up to leave, she handed me her business card. As soon as I read I read Sabrina Fajardo, Graphic Designer, my eyes open up and I told her that we were in an immediate need for someone to help us with a trifold that we wanted to put together for our project in Ghana. She said she was happy to help and the rest is history because up to this date she is the person who, as a volunteer, takes care of all the marketing material for Glorious Being Center. We are so fortunate and feel deep gratitude to have Sabrina as part of our team. She is a genius when it comes to graphic design and we love her work. (www.tlzdesigngroup.com)

This is just one of the so many miracles that we have witnessed with our project in Ghana. I always say that the universe conspires in our favor to have what we want. The secret is that we have to believe in miracles and expect them. We started our project in Ghana last year and it is abolutely amazing that I will be traveling to Ghana at the end of this month. I am deeply grateful for this miracle.

I invite you to give yourself permission to open your heart to ask for what you want and to receive your miracles. It does not matter how big your desires are. Your Higher Power does not have limitations in helping you manifest your miracles. All it wants is for you to have faith.

Here are some steps on how you can open your heart to miracles:

1. Ask

Feel worthy of asking for anything you want and place “your order” with your Higher Power with determination and excitement.

2. Believe

Set up the intention in your heart that it is already yours because your Higher Power always wants to give you what you want. This is the step where you let go and let God.

3. Receive

Have a sense of expectancy and feel the joy of knowing that what you have asked for is on its way to you. Imagine how you feel as you receive it.

I’d like to share a quote that I received one day that I asked for a sign about our project in Ghana and that has served me as a reminder of the infinite possibilities that are in store for us: “Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.” St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the ecology.

Affirm: I open my heart to miracles!

“Seek not to change the world, but choose to change your mind about the world. What you see reflects your thinking. And your thinking but reflects your choice of what you want to see.”From A Course In Miracles 

I love this quote because it invites us to carefully choose the thoughts we have about our world. My experience has told me that when I choose to see my world as a friendly place instead of hostile, by the law of attraction, I attract people, places and experiences that are kind. And when I attract people whom are not so nice, it is an invitation to not become like them but instead to show them how real kindness and compassion looks like.

However, because many times there is a sense of competition and even fear that people are going to hurt you, we walk on “react or cautious mode”. The challenge with this attitude is that we close our hearts to the possibilities that can open great opportunities for us. This is when we have to instead choose to believe that people are good and that it is OK to trust.  This is when we have to remember that our thoughts are creating our reality and it is up to us to decide what kind of reality we want to create.

I invite you to consciously create your experiences by practicing these simple, yet powerful ideas:

1. See the glass full in every situation. Practice seeing the good aspects of every experience, regardless of how challenging it is. There is always a gift to be unwrapped.

2. Don’t take anything personally. Practice compassion and unconditional love and be willing to forgive. Practice humility. Choose to be happy instead of being right.

3. Be compassionate. Practice compassion especially with those that seem most hostile. They are crying out for love. See them with the “right eye”, the eyes of unconditional love.

I invite you to join me on the journey of what I call “The Global Awakening”, which is an opportunity to consciously make this a kinder world by consistently embracing others with love and compassion.

Affirm: Each day I witness acts of kindness in my world

“There is greatness within you”, are the words of motivational speaker Les Brown that have inspired millions of people all over the world.  I have been fortunate to not only being inspired by these words over and over, but also by the countless extraordinary messages I have heard him deliver in person, radio, TV, audio, and webinars, As one of his Platinum Speakers, directly coached by him, I have being the recipient of deep personal transformation. I can certainly say that he has helped me to recognize and “EMBRACE MY GREATNESS.

Les has the ability to speak directly into your soul, and as a result real transformation takes place instantaneously. He is The Master of Public Speaking. I feel quite honored to not only be part of his Platinum Network of Speakers but also to have met so many amazing professional speakers who have had the courage to say yes to their mission. I have been profoundly touched by their messages and have witnessed greatness in every one of them. This is why I feel a great sense of gratitude, for the realization that fortunately there are many loving inspiring messengers of hope, whose mission is to bring change into our world and who are doing it very successfully.

Les has thought me the power of being humble. He always says that he has not yet delivered his best speech. This is to remind himself of how important it is to keep developing yourself so you get better and better at what you do. He has also thought me another quality of a great leader, which is accessibility. He says that the speaker should always be the same person when s/he is on stage and off stage. His way of conducting himself as a speaker and leading by example, has inspired me deeply and has shown me how to stay focused on the fact that there is a lot to learn and to keep stretching myself to embrace my greatness.

Les also demonstrates his amazing quality of connecting with people heart to heart. He treats people with great respect and truly sees greatness in them. He is always hugging people and connecting with love and compassion. He is quite genuine and approachable. In many occasions he has made positive comments about my smile and in some instances when my smile was not there, he noticed it and encouraged me to make sure I smile while I deliver a speech.

He says, “That’s your connection with the audience.”

I have deep gratitude for all I have learned and received from Les Brown and from every one of his Platinum Speakers. We are a family guided by the inspiration and mastery of a great leader. I have been transformed because of Les Brown’s decision to embrace his own greatness.

Turning now my attention to you, my question is, are you embracing your gifts? Do you see yourself as a winner? Are you embracing your present circumstances with certainty that you have within the answers to overcome any challenges? Are you being a Victor? Are you being grateful for what you have? Are you demonstrating your power of choice by giving the world the gift of your gifts and talents and therefore living your dreams? Are YOU EMBRACING YOUR GREATNESS? The answers to these questions will help you to take an honest inventory of yourself and make any necessary changes.

Life is easier when we make the decision to embrace our gifts and talents because this is when we are in alignment with the reason why we came to earth. The steps below help me every day to consciously do it.  I invite you to consider using them to help you embrace your greatness:

• Let go of Limiting Paradigms: Make the commitment to surrender all limiting beliefs and habits and to replacing them with empowering ones. Some ways to do this is to take time to meditate, to journal about your feelings, or hire a coach. Consciously open your heart to your good
• Be Vigilant of your Thoughts, Words and Actions: Make sure to entertain only thoughts, language and actions that are self-empowering. Use affirmations like “I embrace my Greatness. “
• Visualize yourself already as a winner: Exercise the mussel of imagination. Imagine yourself already being, doing or having what you desire. Remember that reality is what you visualize.
• Trust in the benevolence of the Universe: There is an invisible power that wants you to be, do and have anything you desire. Align with this power by taking time every day to meditate and be in silence so you can hear and feel its guidance.

In the words of Les Brown, “develop a vision of your greatest self that you pursue wholeheartedly with and unstoppable spirit.”
