Trust yourself

 At this time and in this place, trust yourself.

While I was raising my very large family, I received this “wisdom”, that each child brings its own supply.

As I clung to the spiritual meaning behind this, I calmed down.

That allowed me to hear the ideas which I needed and to provide for my children.

At one point, I was having a panic attack in the grocery store.

As I calmed down, I saw a large package of fresh spinach.

I remembered that I always liked  to make a large batch of soup for my family.

As I bought the onions and garlic and bacon, I continued to feel provided for.

I was able to complete the rest of my grocery shopping for the week and to come home and to cook.

This feeling of supply occurred, both during my marriage and when I was a single parent.

Now, it continues to be true for me in retirement.

I am finding more ways to be useful and inspired and paid.

My long-term commitment to listening within is yielding even better results in this day and age.

I am learning to trust myself to be able to learn new skills.

My new skills are connecting me with greater opportunities.

I am able to share my “wisdom”, which inspires other people.

Trust yourself in the step you are in today and in all the others which come to you.

Your ideas come to you for practical action.

They come when you are calm.

This is your greatest resource becuase it connects you to everything else you need.

Loving myself and my work

 I love how it feels doing the work that I love.

It embraces me in a completely different way than even doing work that I am good at.

Being excellent is a wonderful goal for quality work at any time.

Being in a frame of mind where my work is what I love is better even than being excellent.

It has changed the way my day feels.

I am in anticipation all day.

Every single thing that I do brings me back to what I love.

When I fix a meal, I come back to work I love.

When I check the mail, I come back to work I love.

When I run errands, I return to my favorite current project.

The Universe is compelling me to expand.

As I take on new projects, I need to learn new skills.

Since the new projects are inspired by the Universe, I am having another completely different experience learning new skills.

It is easier.

Where I pushed and fretted and worried and got anxious and concerned, when I now find myself in the middle of something I need to learn, I am simply able to do so.

It is definitely diferent.

I find myself relaxing more as things come up which I need to address, fix or even redo.

I am in a diffeerent atmosphere.

I do not criticize myself.

I give myself room to do what needs to be done.

I do not pressure myself.

I am not on anyone else’s timetable.

Even as I put together my current new long-term project, I can see I am learning how to take care of whatever comes up mostly calmly.

It is a new rhythm and a new pace for myself.

This feeling of loving myself as I do my work is a wonderful way to live my life.

In my right place

 

Because I love me, I take the steps to place myself well.

I place myself in a  happy frame of mind.

I know what I love to do and I make sure that I do it.

I respect my body and I feed it in a healthy way.

I move consciously and with intent.

I maintain my flexibility and strength in gentle consistent ways.

I place myself in beautiful surroundings.

I support myself with an uplifting process of thought and art.

I involve myself in good causes for the earth.

I  acknowledge the value of artists and I contribute to them.

I have simple routines of maintainance and cooking.

I converse often with my husband and tell  him I love him.

I elminate anything which would pull  me down.

My attitude and practice are the most important aspect of my life so I guard them particularly.

That is how I live in an uplfiting way.

That is my contribution to society and civilization.

Moving into love

 Although I did not know it at the  time, the decision to discover what I love to do has led me into an amazing new world.

When I am involved in doing  what I love to do, I send  out to the world feelings of love for myself.

Recognizing and honoring what I love to do has made such a difference in how I feel on a daily, even hourly, basis.

I no longer have to reward myself at the end of a long, required project.

I no longer have to put off what I love for weeks, months, even years.

I can do what I love everyday, and all day.

I am creating beauty and calm, peace and harmony all day, everyday.

I am lifting up my own spirits and creating a genuinely happy attitude for myself and for those around me.

I am living in beautiful surroundings which uplift me.

I am learning new skills which expand my offerings.

I am able to connect in a genuine and authentic way, because I am am honoring my own best self.

I treasure the life I am creating for myself instead of just enduring it and doing the best that I can.

When I do the best that I can in my new life, it connects me to right timing and uplfiting action.

I am fulfilling my purpose, instead of someone else’s concept of society and civilization.

I am connecting to my ideals in practical and sustainable ways.

I love feeling fulfilled as I take each new step.

I love that tiny steps add up to big steps.

I love that it is always possible to move ahead when I move into love.
