What's
in it for me NOW?
In the past two weeks we have focused on achieving total alignment
with your Source Energy. (By the way, "Source Energy" is another word
for True Self, Higher Self, or Infinite Wisdom; I will use either
True Self or Source Energy.)
This goal may seem philosophical, but you know me by now; I am a
practical, down-to-earth person. Before I buy into an idea, I want to
understand what's in it for me.
So, what does this "alignment with Source" really means? What’s so
wonderful about it? In practical terms it simply means entertaining
the same thoughts as your Source. By contemplating the same notions
as your Source, you will vibrate on the same level. This means that
you experience the same joy and satisfaction as does your True Self.
And I tell you... your True Source feels incredibly fantastic and
alive with the joy of life itself. So, for this reason alone it's
worth doing the work.
But if you also remember “The Secret”, feeling good is core to your
ability to manifest what you truly desire! More importantly, you also
experience a sensation of empowerment - you know you are the creator
of your life experiences. And the more power you feel... guess what?
The more competent you are to change your life! You are placing your
order for your creation and the Universe is answering!
When you find yourself at the bottom of the ladder (see "M-Power"),
feeling powerless, you are sending these helpless vibrations and you
are receiving the proof of what you feel/believe at the moment.
So let's review the thoughts we have been working on in the last
three weeks:
The first thought is:"I love myself." Source entertains what you want
to think and believe is truly so.
The second is: "I am me." (And if you want to work even deeper use:
"This is really me.") By working on your authenticity, you release
the need for masks.
Today we are going to align ourselves with the sense of NOW: The
thought that you need for this lesson is: "I am right here!" You will
notice that as soon as you say that, you will realize how NOT HERE
you are.
Your mind may be thousands of miles away, contemplating the weather
pattern in the Caribbean's... or you may be hours or days or years
ahead.... what will happen to me in 2020? Or you may be stuck in the
past: "Yesterday was a really bad day for me..."
And do you know what? Pain and suffering resides in the past or
future--which are total illusions (but this is another discussion for
another day). If you let yourself really live in the NOW, you will
notice that there is no suffering at all.
Yes, I can hear you say, "But what if I am sick? What if I am broke?"
I want you to understand what being in the NOW really means: It means
that you are not having any thoughts about the next minutes, hours,
or days; therefore, there is no worry. Also, you are not thinking
about the last few minutes, days, months, or years. This means you
have no memory.
Animals and plants are great examples of being in the NOW! They don't
worry and they don't use their memory to predict the future.
So, what IS in it for you?
Well...if you truly take the moment and feel what it feels like
without remembering anything or projecting any thoughts about the
future, you will find PEACE. Deep, satisfying, peace!
I can imagine your frustration is growing by the second as you listen
to this. You are thinking, "How the heck will I be able to reach that
state, and even worse, maintain that state? If I am in the NOW, am I
not denying the truth?”
Well, it all depends on what you want: Do you want to be right and
suffer? Or do you want to feel peace?
Remember when you feel peace, you feel content and well; you are in
alignment with your Source Energy. You have all the power necessary
in order to create a new experience. You can easily let go.
So in summary: you get all you want! And even if it does not manifest
immediately and the universe needs a bit of time to deliver, never
you mind! You have placed your order and the universe is working to
serve it up. You feel at peace NOW!
And isn't it what is really important? Isn't it what you truly want
after all? Don't you want happiness? And happiness cannot be there
without a sense of peace!
You can find peace right now. Anytime!
You don't have to wait until you get what you want! Actually you
can't wait that long because it works the other way:...you will get
what you want once you find peace!
From that state of peace, you can begin new. Your power is NOW! Begin
focusing on your heart's desire.
Have I convinced you that being in the NOW is your doorway to peace?
Isn't it incredibly reassuring that no matter what happens to you in
the moment, when you narrow it down to NOW... there is nothing other
than peace?
I use this experience of NOW whenever I need to feel better.
NOW, let's get practical.
How do you do that?
First, repeat the last two weeks' exercises so that you are more
aligned with your source energy.
Then do this week’s exercise:
You will need an effective belief management technique to do
this exercise.
If you don't know how to manage your beliefs, or if you want to learn
one of the easiest, fastest, and effective way to erase negative beliefs
and install new powerful beliefs, I have designed the Q-Word Method.
(This method is fully explained in my e-book/workbook: M-Power. For more
information go to:
http://www.creationmastery.com/bookstore.com )
Step 1- Say out loud: "I am right here!"
Step 2- Repeat your Q-Word for 30 seconds or so, with the intention
to dissolve anything, thoughts, beliefs, etc. that are getting in the
way of your peace experience.
Step 3- Repeat your positive statement- feel how true it sounds. Keep
repeating steps 1 - 3 until the statement feels TRULY true.
You will feel yourself more present, more alive, in your body, aware
of your surroundings...
Each time you practice, it will be easier and faster for you to be in
the NOW. The process is like cleaning up a very dirty house. First
you have the big Spring cleaning, then you just maintain. It is
faster and easier once the "clean" pattern has been set.
So, go for the Spring cleaning this week... and see you NOW!
Warmly,
Colette Streicher, LMSW
