Can I really have what I want It can be very easy to ‘want’ and ‘desire’ what we think we ‘ought to’ desire. We may even think these are our genuine wants, but what if they are not? What if we are kidding ourselves? Can I really have what I want? Let me give you some examples: ‘I want a successful healing business’ ‘I want to be a bestselling author’…
View PostAre you frustrated by the lack in your life? Are those things you really want just not happening? It’s easy to get attached to a specific outcome to make us happy. We’re surrounded by affluence in the West and encouraged to pin all our hopes and dreams on the outer world. While we might believe that happiness lies within, inwardly many of us may ‘secretly’ hope for circumstances to change…
View PostHow old are you? Are you in your twenties, thirties, forties or beyond? I remember that in my teens and twenties I had big ideas for my life. I saw myself as doing something worthwhile, but I passed over many different routes to who I am and nothing really cemented, nothing sustained. I’m 39 this year. That big 40 is looming. Many people may freak out…
View PostThe ego, the big bad wolf, the thing some spiritual circles try to get rid of, the evil machine that controls us, the thing that starts wars, makes us addicted to outer beauty… yes the ego. But what about the ego that propels us forward, makes changes, puts our name in lights, gets the word out about what we do? What about that ego?Talking with a good friend over a…
View Post*Follow up to Maybe You’re Not A Good Person After writing my last post it dawned on me that I had painted a picture of myself that emphasised the ‘not good’ qualities and none of the positive. I realised that the picture I painted could be misunderstood and understandably so. It took courage to be that real with both myself and with the world outside and so in this…
View PostPoverty brings up so many connotations, starving children in Africa to homeless people on the street in the Western world, yet poor to me is a state of mind. There seem to be so many degrees of feeling poor and what feels like poverty to one person is absolute abundance to another. I know of many people in my life who would be absolutely crushed with my income level…
View PostOver 4 years ago I left my job because I knew that working in retail was no longer for me and I wanted to ‘find myself’ as clichéd as this sounds. With the help of my best friend I learned to live on a small budget and go without the luxuries many people may enjoy in this world. It was a big risk to take, but it was…
View PostThere is that well known saying ‘sometimes things need to get worse before they get better’. As some of you know I have been questioning reality since 1999, writing this blog since 2007 and coming back to what truly matters, being authentic, embracing ‘what is’ and being more deeply present in my world. For the first time in what feels like a decade, I am feeling creatively rich, I am…
View PostSo is visualising a money plant an easy way to manifest wealth? If you type into Google ‘get rich quick’, you will find millions of pages on ways to get rich. From investments, to pyramid schemes, to buying stock and shares and finally to the new craze sweeping the world – ‘The Law Of Attraction’. Some of the Law of Attraction teachers claim that if you get in the zone,…
View PostSince an early age I had a wide range of ideas about what I would like to experience in life, but these never stayed the same, they changed and evolved as I changed. Now in my late thirties, I am surrendering to the fact that a career is not for everybody. A few nights ago I had a long drawn-out dream. I dreamt that to get anywhere in the world…
