The most important choice you make is what you choose to make important. What are you making more important than your Big Dream? TV? Surfing the internet? Reading trashy magazines? Are these things more important than your Big Dream? You may also find that you need less time than you think… just 10 minutes every day can find you making huge progress on your Big Dream.
To listen to this week’s podcast, click here: Time And Your Big Dream
Homework:
Look at how you can make some time in your busy life to work on your Big Dream every day. Cut out a bit of tv time, stop surfing the internet, cut out non essential time wasters. Take the time for your Big Dream…just a little bit of time…every day.

May all your dreams become reality.

Every Moment is a Choice

How many choice points do you think you have in your life? Do you only see the “big” choice points – this job or that job, this relationship or a single life, buy a house or go to Australia. What would you think if I told you that this moment is a choice point?
And this one?
And this moment right here?
What choices can you make in this moment?
Here’s a couple of ideas:
Do I do the most self-loving thing for myself now or not?
Do I look for the silver lining or not?
Do I do my best in this moment or do I just give in to apathy?
Do I choose to LIVE my life or do I wait for life to start?
Do I choose to raise my energy in this moment and do what I can to feel good or not?
Do I choose to smile or frown in this moment?
So what choices are you making? In every moment, you have the choice to change or not. There is no right or wrong in this by the way – no judgement, no blame. Just choice. So if you were to choose to do the most self-loving thing you could for yourself in this moment, what would happen? I understand that you may be at work and unable to have a long hot bath, but given the constraints you have, what would be the most self-loving thing to do?
How about if you chose to see the silver lining? What might change? Chose to do your best in this moment? Chose to LIVE? Chose to raise your energy? Chose to smile? (maybe even BEAM, chuckle, laugh, guffaw?!) You may choose to do the opposite of all of these – to see the worst, to do your worst, to exist apathetically, to lower your energy (we’re very good at that), to frown…but that’s your choice! So if that’s what you’ve chosen, I hope you’re enjoying it. (Once you get to a certain level of positivity, having a bad day can be fun too!)
What are you choosing in this moment? Let me know – leave a comment.

Choose to be Happy Anyway
August 16, 2011 by Donnaonthebeach

Here’s a choice for you:
You have a flat tyre.
You can either be pissed off and have a flat tyre, or you can be happy and have a flat tyre.
Either way, you still have a flat tyre.
Which will you choose? If you decide to choose to be pissed off, what will you do? For example, you could complain about it, tell yourself how blasted inconvenient it is in every way, pout, cry, you could even stamp your feet.
How about if you decide to be happy? What will you do then? for example, you could look for the funny side, you could smile (or even beam), you could take the opportunity to show your skills at changing tyres, you could call a good friend to help and spend time with them laughing, you could flirt with the guy at the garage, you could experience the kindness of strangers.
Either way, you still had a flat tyre, but one is more fun, more enjoyable, and allows you to be cheerful.
By the way, this applies to other things than flat tyres.

Happy Independence Day!

Isn’t it a wonderful idea to celebrate independence? (Which by the way, I always want to spell indepeDANCE! Like a happy dance, but for freedom. Anyway.) I love the idea of a day off to celebrate being in charge of your own destiny. To my friends and followers in the US, well done you for having such a brilliant reason for a holiday. And to all of us, whether your country is having an Independence Day or not, let’s take this opportunity to celebrate OUR independence. To celebrate our freedom. To celebrate being in charge of our own destiny, master of our own universe.
We have the freedom to do anything we want – we can dress as we wish, speak as we wish, vote as we wish, choose our own path in life. Do you appreciate how wonderful that is? Do you appreciate that we can speak out against tyranny, we can get an education which gives us a better chance in life, we have the freedom to move around, to work where we want to work, listen to the music we want to listen to. In every moment we have the freedom to choose – what we watch on TV, what we read, who we speak to, whether to be grumpy or happy, what to spend our money on, how to spend our time.
Sometimes it may feel like life is closing in around us and we have no choices, no freedom, no independence, but that is never true. No one can ever take away from you your brilliance, your freedom to love, your freedom to think, your freedom to be yourself. How wonderful. I cannot tell you how grateful I am to be independent, free, allowed to choose my life. Woohoo!!!! Happy Independence Day to you – may you always be free to live and love life as you choose.
With love
