DAY 24: Fan mail & Swish'n Swipe

So, guys - for those of you who have actually been following the project, I am sorry I got sidetracked again. I am hoping at some point I will learn to ride these cycle of introversion, spiritual expansion, physical, material expansion and retraction again... Until then, I just 'jump right in!'  :D For Infinite Possibilities  Day 24:  is a cute task - we are to write a letter to ourselves from an admirer of our future self when all our dreams have manifested. This is so much fun - first time I did it I felt awful about it; I couldn't write hardly anything about myself that didn't either feel like a lie or really tasteless self-glorification :D But I did find a few things, I could write focusing on the things I wish to learn for the future - and my present admiration for people that have those skills. And for the things I would do to help others and the world. That being manifested, there would be quite a lot to say thanks for! Baby Step 24  is an important on...

Message from the Tarot - or Music, maybe.

So, friends - do you believe in tarot readings? I don't. That is - I don't, in the same way I don't believe in ghosts or God or angels or healing or telepathy: I don't believe in them, I just experience them. I've been in a long slump. Taking care of my material business and doing my 30 day project, and just stumbling into more and more material issues. (Law of attraction for you, but hey we are materially visiting in a material time and space, so ignoring the physicality of us all, is not really an option, is it. Trust me, I've been there done that - didn't work.) Today, I did some good things for myself on a very spritual level; I met with a new friend and spent some quality time outdoors and in good company. This had a rather sharp backlash - my apprentice got in big trouble during the day, and her strife affected me - so now, at night I just could not sleep at all. So, I snuck into the forum to see if I could find inspiration. And I found it ...

DAY 23: I Have Received! And Afternoons

Day 23 is a great one! For BabySteps we are starting a new group of routines;  Afternoon Routines . These are individual chores that you need in your life, things that might benefit from being taken care of before you put your feet up after your workday. For me it's begin preparing for dinner. Chopping, mixing, marinating etc., so that food is just 20 minutes away or so. For someone else it might be vacuuming,  or doing laundry or the mission for the day, or administrative stuff, 30 minutes office hour... The great thing about routines it that they hardly 'cost' any energy once the routine has been established. So figure out what you never seem to get done, put it in her 5min a day, for example :) Mike Dooley on his side is asking us to  Be Grateful , so it's your basic gratitude list - but only because gratitude for what we have received is an easy way to get into the 'receiving' state of mind - which in turn automatically will give us more. So in the li...

DAY 22: Procrastination & Perfectly Lovely Things To Do

Today is Day 22 - a great magical number!  And my two favorite sages on how to live earth life better, Mike Dooley and Marla Cilley, converge again - but it might not be completely obvious at first glance: Our  Baby Step 22  is about procrastination; the question is 'did you do your control journal yet'? Well, did you? I started mine, as you remember - I have pictures. But I havent put anything in it since...! I think I remember everyting without it. I don't. I want the colors to be right, I want good looking dividerr, I want this and that - and I don't like the fold in the cover plastic.  Ok. So FlyLady states that procrastination comes from perfectionism.  I didn't agree. A huge part of me still resist it, I'm a mess, I'm ok with so-so. Everything is just so-so in my life anyway.  But here is the thing; I don't like it. Most things in my life - I don't like! So, maybe I am a perfectionist after all. A desillusioned pessimist, w...

DAY 21: Playing Make Believe to Receive

So, today is day 21. Hope you guys have picked up a useful thing or two; I also hope you have stuck with the babystep routines listed... Today's task is one I did in the beginning; reading the Q&As. I took it to heart that all the negativity in my mind needed to be 'flywashed' away, with postitive stories and inspirational ideas. After a while of reading, that need subsided - if I'm more positive than the shares, then I think I've graduated :)  But read one or two, only as much as your heart can stay open for - and don't get lost and spend more than 5 minutes reading, either.  Baby Step 21 For Infinite Possibilities our  Day 21  is a challenge, at least for me who tend to be rather private around my dreams. We are to speak of our dreams - as if they had come true - with another person; a friend who also believes and works with thoughts becoming things . Listen to Mike Dooley in the video, and lets find the courage to do it. (Who on earth do I know I coul...

DAY 20: Climbing Mount Washmore & Co

Today's tasks are both easy - and GREAT! The  Baby Step 20  is One Load a day keeps Mount Washmore Away; do one load of laundry every day. This only works if you have your own laundry machine, and to this day I am not as successful with my laundry as I was where I lived when I started FlyLady years back. But there is a something for everyone here - if you do have a laundry machine, start it in the morning, perhaps with delay so it's done just as you get home - and you can hang it to dry or put it in the dryer. And If you don't have laundry for every day of the week, then the following morning you can fold, and put away. If you have more laundry you fold in the evening - I get my kids to help, and we sometimes fold watching a show. Everyone puts their own clothes away. And I make sure I collect laundry everyday; from couches - the floor! - the bathroom - hallway. It's a daily laundry walk :) Mike Dooley asks us to do something far more festive :) We are to make a l...

Experience: Black Soot Visit

Image
Hey - so here is a video on spiritual matters only. It's been a while, been staying mostly with the Start Anew Project, since getting into a groove with that has been not quite as straight forward as I anticipated :) Anyway, here's my account of an experience yesterday, that I will spend some time digesting. As you know, I'm not one to believe in evil or densities other than as a reflection of myself  - so this experience is a little curious to me. Let me know if you have any thoughts.
