Be Smarter

Be Smarter_iStock_000017097256MediumSomewhere along the way, many
people have forgotten that they are
co-creators of their own world. To
say there’s nothing one can do about
one’s circumstances is b.s. illusion.
Even if you shift the way you perceive
something, you’ve already changed it.

“For a long time it had seemed to me that life was
about to begin—real life. But there was always some
obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through
first, some unfinished business, time still to be served,
a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last, it
dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.”
–Alfred D. Souza

    CJ, Your timing is impeccable once again!

    Recently, the Universe has reminded me of this in dramatic fashion. After staring at the canvas of my history for much too long and watching the darker colors bleed through and overshadow the light, I’ve discovered a wonderfully liberating thing–I can put the old canvas aside and begin on a brand new one any time I choose! I have been blessed with everything I could truly ever need: a stable, loving marriage, friends who love and support me unconditionally, my health, the ability to work for myself and the opportunity to help others live a better life. By choosing to let the blessings of my life guide me, the entire world suddenly appears much brighter. And I was the only one who could make that decision and change.

    One of my favorites CJ! We can never be reminded enough that we are creating our own reality and that our “perceptions” are the key to embracing the circumstances we are in. Thank you!
