DIY   EVENTS    FEEL BETTER    INSPIRATION    WATCH & LISTEN    ABOUT

The issue in owning your life is really about leaning into what you really think and feel and refrain from dismissing and/or minimizing those gut and heart feelings.

It has been said that prayer is you talking to God, and intuition is God talking to you.  Telepathy is synonymous with intuition, in that it’s sub-atomic interconnectedness.

I’ve been writing and speaking for over 25 years about the thinking technology people must be willing to learn in order to heal their minds, bodies and spirits.

As we learn to interpret this level of energetic communication coming in, we begin to understand why we feel what we feel and know what we know, at times when it doesn’t seem logical.

In learning not to fear energetic communication, but to embrace it and begin to participate with it from an empowered place that says, “I can and will affect this situation powerfully through deciding differently and making a decision into be a peaceful presence.”

Energetic communication begins in our minds, flows to our bodies and is directed by our heart as we learn to listen to its cellular wisdom.

Today’s blog will explain exactly what’s been happening that you cand must take ownership of to get more of what you want and less of what you don’t want!

The Body Electric and Magnetic

Discover magazine featured an article which included a series of brightly colored electronic photographs showing the illuminated flow of electrical activity throughout the entire system of nerves and blood vessels in the human body.

Think about it:  if the heart stops, modern medical practice is to apply an electric jolt to get it started again.  The brain uses electricity to issue its commands from neuron to neuron.

When these signals reach a muscle, they set up a wave of electricity throughout the muscle.

Each cell of the body has a positive and negative charge, so there is constant polarity.

Each cell has a magnetic component.  Which means the body is not only electric, it’s magnetic.  In essence, we are moving electromagnetic fields of living energy.

What this means to our relationships is everything.  When we are getting backlash there’s a reason for it that you can quickly do something about!

Our work on attitudes is never really complete.  But it does become easier to be truthful about what we’ve been believing and holding at the deepest parts of our self, about the people we are having difficulty with.

Setting an intention every morning to be a blessing to others can be enough of a mental and emotional shift to make a tremendous difference in how the day plays out.

An analogy that illustrates this best is to imagine that the energy flow from you is like a signal or wave-length being transmitted from a radio or television station.

Each of us emits very precise signals based on what we believe and think.  Everyone and everything in our environment has the capacity to pick up certain aspects of these signals.

In today’s blog I’m going to show you exactly how, even the most infinitesimal of attitudinal signals, can be getting you the exact opposite of what you want.

Synergy in its sweetest form feels cooperative, collaborative, validating, respectful, considerate, accommodating and productive.  You know the feeling.  It feels good.  It feels like you and every one else is in an easy flow.

On the other hand discord, which is the opposite of synergy, feels discombobulating and disjointed with underlying tone of bias, disapproval, disappointment, limitation, judgment, skepticism, condemnation, superiority, fear, martyr, victim mindset and most certainly can be seen, felt and heard!

How does the energy of synergy happen for you?

Do you see it … hear it … or feel it?

However you experience the energy of synergy is an indicator as to whether you are a predominantly a visual, auditory or kinesthetic learner.

How often do you feel drained after you’ve been with a person who is complaining or negative about things?

In the weeks ahead I will be covering what interconnectedness and I’m excited to share with you that you can be in a field of negativity and no longer need to be drained by it.

Let’s start at the beginning…

Today we will look at what I like to call “user friendly” Quantum Field Theory Interconnectedness and how everybody can relate to what’s really going on!

Sub-Atomic InterConnectedness 
Excerpt from Connecting With Colors: Synergize Your Life Self-Paced Program 

Have you ever been driving along, and get this feeling or sense that somebody is looking at you?  You turn your head and, sure enough, somebody is.

Have you had a thought about somebody, and the phone rings, and it’s them?

Or in a marriage, one person is having an affair, and the partner has a sense of it.

Have you ever met someone who you were instantly very uncomfortable with, for no apparent logical reason.

Have you ever had a sense that your children were doing something they shouldn’t be doing and you feel an urge to check on them and sure enough, they are about to do something that could cause them harm!

Do you have a dog that wakes up from his nap, gets off the couch and goes to the door to wait just moments before a family member arrives home?

The latest research I have for you today explains exactly why we are not getting the results we say we want in relationships when we don’t deal with the cause of the problem first: the labels we put on people, and the attitudes that result.

If you’d like to know what quick tricks you can use to get some sweet synergy going with people you have been totally out of sync with …

The more you understand, the more effective you can be about how you think about people and therefore treat people attitudinally with your thought energy.

Over twenty-five years ago, when I first started developing Continuing Education Programs for Portland State University I needed to find concrete, scientific information that would support what I was intending to share with educators about the importance of Attitudinal Energy as it tied into my signature ReLabeling™ System.

This is as relevant for today’s children as it is for adults who are being labeled “at-risk” because as a culture we are still very unskilled in dealing with the energies going on around us and within the situations our lives have accumulated thus far.

As a society we have grown leaps and bounds in IQ, EQ and SQ these past several decades and yet we still tend to assign blame first and then justify our often hurtful reactions toward what we have observed in another.

In my search to explain in concrete terms what I was doing differently than most, I started to dive into Quantum Mechanics.  This was an area of study I never, ever considered approaching, let alone seeking to understand as a simple farm girl from Nebraska and yet, this is where my journey took me.

I was excited to find that I would be able to share real time observational science to explain what it was that I specifically thought and then did differently which assisted 100% of my students to excel.

My students’ unprecedented success was measurable via Stanford Achievement Test results of an average of 2.5 – 3 years growth – and this was with a 55-65% at-risk population each and every year – simply by my not doing what most other teachers were doing to kids to force round pegs learners to fit in square box teaching and discipline.

I tell you this not to impress you, but to impress upon you that what you think about others really does matter as far as the results you are receiving back!

When the doors of Education were slow in opening for my Academic Success Program I revised it for the Corporate and Business Arenas where I discovered that we are all essentially little kids in big bodies.  The way I worked with students who were at-risk of being lost through the cracks was no different than working with adults who were still struggling to fit in a square box world.  

In today’s blog we begin with the first puzzle piece to getting more of what you want and less of what you don’t want!

Thought Affects Electrons
Excerpt from Connecting With Colors: Synergize Your Life Self-Paced Online Program

Nowhere is the importance of conscious choice in the shaping of outcomes better demonstrated than in the delayed-choice experiment conducted by physicist John Wheeler.

There was a new kind of technology in the 1970’s that allowed scientists to accelerate free electrons to a speed approaching the speed of light.

In it’s simplest terms, in Wheeler’s study, when they would fire the electrons at a screen with two apertures, they were amazed to find that the electrons, which were believed to be particles, would sometimes behave like waves.

Sometimes they would go through the top aperture, and sometimes go through the bottom aperture, and sometimes the electron would change into a light wave and go through both apertures and converge on the other side and become a particle again.

The scientists at first could not figure out how this happened.

Finally after extensive experimentation and deliberation, they began to recognize that what determined the way the electron would behave was the observation, perception and expectation of the experimenter.

When they looked for particles, they found them.

When they looked for waves in the same experiment, they found waves.

What this means is that no matter what you think you get to be right.

What does this mean to you and me and our ability to live, love and work with others synergistically?   Everything!  To find out just how you can apply this to your advantage with anyone and everyone you currently struggle with …

Because of social media, we are all seeing just how much people can hurt themselves and others by what they post.  We are getting to witness one another’s journey from really dark places calling us all – at one point or another – to participate in the complete and total collapse into powerlessness.   We also see people posting uplifting quotes to encourage us all to think differently about the problematic areas of our lives.

Maybe you have contemplated the question, “Why don’t people just pick up a book, buy a program or attend a free webinar to start learning how to think and do things differently?”

As an educator who has worked with thousands of other people’s children, raised three of my own in a blended family and had troubles focusing and believing myself smart enough to learn as a child, I have an answer to to this question:  the very people who need the help a good book or program could give them often have accepted disabling labels about themselves and do not believe they can focus long enough to learn anything new.

Many people’s problems are so overwhelming that far too many believe that positive change is just going to be too hard.  That’s why I am moved to help as many people as possible learn simple, straightforward steps that are accumulative in bringing better results quickly and easily.  We begin today with getting to the root of where it all begins so we can change it more easily …

UpRoot a Victim Mindset 
Excerpt from Victim No More: Diffusing Bully Behaviors UTrain Program

Some fifty years ago, there was a study that, even though cruel, observed exactly how the psyche remains committed to “that’s just how it is” mindset even though things are becoming very uncomfortable.

The experiment involved frogs.  They dropped a frog into scalding water.  The frog jumped out immediately, and saved its own life by doing so.  You and I would do the same.  If we find ourselves in extreme pain or imminent danger, we will flee immediately.

The next phase of the experiment was to put the frog in a pan with tepid water and place the pan on a burner.  The fire under the pan was turned up ever so slowly, until ultimately it was boiling.  The frog did not jump out and ultimately died.

What this illustrates about changing unproductive behavior is that, lacking a shocking, disruptive event, we tolerate a slow and steady increase of pain.  It is numbing, rather than alarming.

We have possibly learned that we are basically powerless to change “certain” situations and approaches in our lives that are harmful.

It’s the little things that, when repeated over time,
will yield either huge success or debilitating failure and loss.

To change it would be a risk.  This may have something to do with why people have more heart attacks on Mondays than any other time.  It’s about having to go back to that job, where the heat has been turned up gradually over time until it literally kills them to remain there.

The “heat” can be a variety things: a dysfunctional, abusive work place, or the loss of passion and purpose in that particular form of work.

Let’s go a little further. The scientific term for how we experience our world is called “premature cognitive commitments” which is how victim mindsets can be formed.

Last week’s blog we took a look at the importance of time and how if we don’t own it, manage it and take care of it, it can get away from us and rob us of our joy.

There is nothing more time consuming than relationships that are hurtful and harmful which brings up the issue of bullying and victimization.

The good news is that we are seeing and increase in awareness about the subject bullying and victimization with Public Service Announcements – PSA’s – of famous people and wonderful organizations coming out AGAINST bullying these past several years.

It’s a good thing that we are addressing this issue and yet, we must be willing to learn how to understand the psychology of what’s really going on.  We must engage in learning an ever advancing skill set to be effective at diffusing bully behavior while empowering all parties involved to learn how to ask for what they want in a way that gets people more of what they want and less of what they don’t want.

In today’s blog we’re going to take a look at what it really means to be AGAINST something.

Victim Mindset?!

I’m a stickler for language and how it either inflames an already potentially volatile situation OR it soothes it. Being AGAINST is about a FIGHTING and WAR-ING mentality which means we are in fact, making people who use bully behavior to try to control their world,  i.e., THE ENEMY! This is the very thing we must learn how to do differently.

True story: An example of this is high school principal who wrote me, proudly saying that there aren’t any bullies in his school, because he IS the bully (thus, teaching kids exactly how to be bigger bullies as they grow up!) His justification was that his mother was a pushover, so when he got into education he found that ALL of the successful teachers in his nationally renowned inner-city, private, low income school were authoritative, old-school, using the “black parenting style” approach, and that this was the ONLY way to work with “these” kids.

Let’s look at this:  out bully the bully = Bigger Bully

Bully Behavior is seen by most as beyond their control, and to deal with it we must be strong enough to “out-bully the bully.” Either that, or we try to convince ourselves that we didn’t see what we just saw, and we can somehow put our heads in the sand and tell ourselves it’s not our responsibility to step up and make a much needed difference.

PERCEPTION –The  KEY to PEACEFUL INTERACTIONS

Instead of being AGAINST bullying; let’s ask ourselves what we can be FOR?

We can be FOR PEACE Making Skills in our homes, schools and places of work.

We can be FOR CALLING OUT THE GREATNESS in every person we meet.

We can be FOR 2-WAY COMMUNICATION and hanging there with people who see things differently than we do.  We CAN learn the skills that attitudinally, verbally and energetically create the kind of outcomes that we prefer.

There have been two significant studies I’ve found that shed light on how we come AT problematic behaviors rather than build a clear pathway to desired results and goals …

We are in the second month of the new year, let’s continue to set the tone for how we want to enJOY our TIME each and every day.

Do you have adults and/or  children in your life who are currently struggling with TIME?

Have you interpreted a diagnosis of ADD/ADHD as defining  you?  As saying, “this is just who you are” so you are relieved of any responsibility to making your dreams come true?

Has this diagnosis/prognosis/label had an impact on the emotional connection and intimacy you often find yourself wishing you had more of?

Is there entirely too much drama resulting – arguing, fussing and hurtful disconnection – from trying so hard to get people to just get things done in a timely manner?

OR has the implied limitation of the ADD/ADHD label inadvertently become your reason for not getting the results you really want for yourself and/or your loved ones?  If you’re thinking you’d like this to change this year, I know you will like today’s blog.

Got TIME. Want more of it?

I’ve been writing and speaking for over 25 years about the thinking technology people must be willing to learn in order to heal their hearts, minds and spirits.

The Catch-22 is that while my books and programs do in fact transform lives, the people who struggle the most with having received an ADD/ADHD diagnosis – who could be most helped – are afraid, because of past learning experiences, to invest in themselves to do the mental work necessary to create new neurological pathways by simply taking in a little new knowledge each and every day.

You may be asking yourself, “Why would people not want to make the time to learn about the mind improving thinking technology that could improve their entire life experience?”

The reality is that for adults and children receiving ADD/ADHD diagnosis, far too many experience reading and learning as a lot of hard work to sit still for.

I know because I used to experience it as hard and even emotionally painful to force myself to sit still.  I don’t any more because I did the daily work to apply the new thinking technology to heal my mind, heart and spirit which is why I write the books and programs I do.

Recently I’ve discovered there is an even easier way to calm down, get focused and truly enJOY being highly productive regardless of possible side trips into distraction land.  Take a moment to find out what tool I now use …

What if there’s another way to look at our loved ones, family and friends that will dissolve the labels we’ve been carrying around either about ourselves and/or others. Would you want to know?

Ignorance does not lead to bliss.  A shift in POV = Point of View can make all the difference in the world.  Perspective determines how we are deciding to see someone, which instantly impacts how we treat them energetically.

Anyone, anywhere can have focus no matter what they’ve been told about themselves, been labeled and or limited by.  To get yourself focused first requires a decision to show up for your life and own it!

Focus is a skill that can become a habit with practice and control. Without focus, your energy can flow out of you many different ways throughout any given day.

But what happens with one-pointed concentration, i.e., focus?  Your energy goes up, up, up, up.

When we give our energy away without being mindful and discerning, we end up feeling tired and de-energized at the end of the day.

However, when we are focused and productive we feel that wonderful feeling of “job well done” at the end of our day.  It’s a great feeling.

Take a few minutes today to read about what the new science is saying about the Power of Focus in today’s blog.  I think you’ll be glad you did.

FOCUS is just plain Savvy!

It doesn’t matter what age you are, walking into the room focused with confidence and ease about who you are is really sexy.

There have been  – of course – many studies done about the power of a woman’s smile as being the most savvy, engaging thing a woman can do.  (I would venture to say that the same is true of a man’s smile too.)

In one of the studies they found that men were consistently more attracted to a woman’s smile first than anything about her looks.

What does smiling have to do with focus?  Owning your life … that’s what!

What I’ve observed about a human nature in my 25 years of being in business for myself is that it’s impossible to have confidence in what you do with out a very high degree of focus and intention about your purpose and yes, that IS your swagger, your charisma, your in the zone factor …
