Create Your Own YOUniversity (aka YOU * U)

I discovered this website months ago, and it's so much fun for nurturing my creativity! I think the following course sounds like fun, and if I was not so busy with my network marketing business and the success I'm creating with that, I'd be tempted to take this course... however, maybe this will be perfect for someone who reads this blog, so I wanted to pass it on!

Success, Wealth, Happiness & Health!

Another Resource -- Quantum Selling

I'm tapping into the energy of this concept without yet purchasing the whole course, which is several hundred dollars!

This has been very interesting!

I have read the whole website and listened to several audios there, and have been getting the newsletters about it -- from this, I've gone inside and asked to ALIGN with this knowledge and energy and power, and attempted my own version of the exercises, deduced from picking up bits here and there in the information I've reviewed.

THEN, 2 nights ago, something amazing happened when I received a special email from the creators of the Quantum Selling course!

They had recently held a teleconference call INTENDED ONLY for those students who had PURCHASED the course... however, their email got DELIVERED to many on their other lists who had NOT purchased the course!

As a result, they sent a link for the recording of the call to their WHOLE list, and I listened to it that night, 2 nights ago.

Then, that night before going asleep I was able to perform a more complete attempt at the exercise, just from what I picked up in the bits and pieces discussed on the call, added to what I've already deduced.

Today I had a prospect call me OUT OF THE BLUE about my network marketing business, who saw something I'd written somewhere on a site about the movie "What The Bleep Do We Know" . . . NOW my attention is REALLY captured!

If you want me to forward you the email with the link to the call recording, write to me for it at lk_by_heart@yahoo.com

I'm excited about this!

Afformations -- A new TWIST on an Old Idea....

I've been experimenting with this idea of making AFFIRM-ations into QUESTIONS (AFFORM-ations), as suggested by Noah St. John on this website and in the book he wrote.

I have not personally read the book, but I get his newsletters, have read the website, and I read the reviews of the book at Amazon.com...

I'm trying this as an experiment, and so far I like what's happening for me with this.

So, I wanted to share this idea! Maybe it will resonate with you!

However, I'm not going into a lot of detail about what I'm doing with it personally, because I've learned that talking too much prematurely can deflate energy from our prosperity exercises.

Ask for guidance for how YOU can personally use the information you glean from this resource, whether you read the whole book or not!

From one of my Prosperity Mentors, Marilyn Jenett, on "Relief Efforts"

I cannot more sincerely express my beliefs and thoughts about what has happened, than Marilyn has in her post (below) from her student support email forum on Ryze.com (an online networking community).

I asked Denise to post her message and told her I would encourage my members to act on the information.

A couple of you have written responses but I have not posted them, but know that I do appreciate them. We all feel a great sadness for this event and compassion for the incomprehensible loss, but I feel it is important for students and members of this network to focus on how we can help.

We can help by turning our thoughts to love and prayer to heal and console. Our prayers do reach out to those in need – there is no time or space in spirit, only heartfelt connection. Our prayers of gratitude can also manifest Universal substance in the form of material goods and funds and speed them to their destination.

Instead of using our thoughts and emotions to dwell on the tragedy, let’s all use that vital energy and spiritual power to produce the spiritual substance in every form needed to begin the healing.

It is time to give of your material substance as well. There is no such thing as too little. Release whatever amount is prompted by your heart and intuition. Do you realize that if a million people sent just .50 each, there would be half a million dollars to feed, cloth and medically care for a great number of people. And I know that most of you are able to release much more than that.

I had some thoughts about this event. It is perhaps man's disrespect and inhumanity to man, that creates the stress and unleashes the fury of Mother Earth.

It is a law of physics that like attracts like, and it is not farfetched to think that the negative and violent thoughts, emotions and vibrations that abound on this planet could produce a corresponding physical reaction from our very foundation.

Perhaps if we learn to love and support each other, really love and support each other, our Mother will peacefully support us.

Let's do our part and begin now.

An Aussie Christmas -- what fun!

Hi, I just received a holiday greeting from my business associate in Australia, and he sent this link -- living in Minnesota, myself, I get a pretty traditional Christmas with snow and the whole shebang. I've always known a greater part of the world does not get snow for Christmas, but I've never heard a version of Jingle Bells like THIS one! :o)

"The Believer"

This is from Marion Ryan's newsletter, received today.

Marion's website is http://www.marionryan.com

With thanks to G K Chesterton who wrote this, Sarah Ban Breathnach who quoted it in her book, "Romancing the Ordinary" and Judith Morgan who shared it with the Three Wise Women:

"What has happened to me has been the very reverse of what appears to be the experience of most of my friends. Instead of dwindling to a point, Santa Claus has grown larger and larger in my life until he fills almost the whole if it. It happened in this way.

As a child I was faced with a phenomenon requiring explanation. I hung up at the end of my bed an empty stocking, which in the morning became a full stocking. I had done nothing to produce the things that filled it. I had not worked for them, or made them or helped to make them. I had not even been good - far from it.

And the explanation was that a certain being whom people called Santa Claus was benevolently disposed toward me...

And as I say, I believe it still. I have merely extended the idea. Then I only wondered who put the toys in the stocking; now I wonder who put the stocking by the bed, and the bed in the room, and the room in the house, and the house on the planet, and the great planet in the void.

Once I only thanked Santa Claus for a few dolls and crackers, now I thank him for stars and street faces and wine and the great sea.

Once I thought it delightful and astonishing to find a present so big that it only went halfway into the stocking. Now I am delighted and astonished every morning to find a present so big that it takes two stockings to hold it, and then leaves a great deal outside.

It is the large and preposterous present of myself, as to the origin of which I can offer no suggestion except that Santa Claus gave it to me in a fit of peculiarly fantastic goodwill."


I hope you're enjoying the holiday season, whether Santa Claus is a part of your heritage or not... gratitude is a Universal Gift to oneself and the world!

No matter the name we assign to the Supreme Force we thank for our blessings, it's good to be reminded that -- although we seem so small to ourselves -- we are a part of something so HUGE that sometimes I wish we'd all just stop trying to name it, stop fighting over our definitions of it, and live in our gratitude, enjoying and sharing what's been given to us, knowing we are ALL -- EACH AND EVERY ONE -- an equal part of the Ultimate Creative Force!

Success, Wealth, Happiness & Health!

Energy Follows Awareness

Susan James is another cutting edge prosperity consciousness teacher/mentor. Here is her "Manifest Warp Speed Daily Dose of Energy" for today, it's excellent!

==================== .

©Manifest Warp Speed: (sj)

==================== .

IS The *Application* of The Mechanics of Energy & Spirit to our physical lives, so that we create our life experience on purpose in a way that we choose for it to be, versus picking up the broken pieces of our lives & designing it by default & randomness. (Susan James)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .
For Your Energy Stream....Your Daily Dose of: *Energy!*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .
------------------------------MWS------------------------------------------.
AUDIO Version: http://manifestwarpspeed.blogspot.com
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .

*Energy Follows Awareness.

What does that mean? It means, that whatever we make ourselves aware of, we get more of it. If we are making ourselves aware of debt and how we feel about it, we get more of it. If we make ourselves more aware of financial freedom, and how we feel about it…we get more of it. All of it is an _expression of desire that is answered, and God-Universe/Consciousness/Spirit does not judge our desires. It just sends us more, based on what we continue to make ourselves aware of. (sj)*

(How do we FIX this so that we operate in our favor? We teach ourselves how....that’s how! It is a *skill development*and for most of us, the difference between our dreams coming true or not, as well as our day to day lives running smoothly, instead of being filled with fires to put out! (sj) )
