Got Any Suggestions for Feel Good Movies / Books / Videos?

Sometimes, when the right this minute “what is”, has all your attention, it can be a bit difficult to shift how you are feeling.

If you continue to focus on the negative aspects of “what is”, what do you think will happen? You will end up with more of the negative you are focusing on.

Like a magnet, you are attracting thoughts, people, events, lifestyles – everything that you are living. And so, as you see things as they are, you attract more of the same; but as you see things as you would like them ot be, you attract them as you would like them to be. This is why the better it gets, the better it gets; or the worse it gets, the worse it gets — people tend to look mostly at what is.

Remember, you live in a Vibrational Universe, and all things are managed by the Law of Attraction. And you get what you think about, whether you want it or not, because whenever you achieve vibrational harmony with something because you are giving it attention, the vibrational essence of it will, in some way, begin to show up in your experience.

You’re always getting a perfect vibrational match to what you predominantly give your attention to. But you’ve got to make the best of it. You’ve got to vibrate slightly different from where you are if you are going to improve where you are. You can’t keep taking score of where your business is or your relationship is, or your body is, without continuing to create it as it is. To make improvement, you’ve got to reach for a different thought.

All Is Well
http://www.abraham-hicks.com

Believe me, I can vouch for Abraham’s take on this! ;) This past two weeks has had the negative aspects I have been focusing on popping up in all different aspects of my life. Yep, I did that! It seems that I am trapped in the negativity quagmire.

Abraham suggests that if you can’t find a better feeling thought to change your focus to something else. Since I am having a hard time working up the emotional guidance scale on the issues in my life, I have to take my attention away from “what is” for temporary relief, which will hopefully move me in a different direction. This is where your help comes in. :)

What movies or books can you recommend that are light hearted, funny or silly?

I would really love to have some side splitting laughs, but while we have a Blockbuster membership, I rarely use it. Let me know what movies or books have had you laughing out loud and I will get my Blockbuster and Library cards warmed up!




Not Allowing The Good

August 28 – Ask and It Is Given – Perpetual Flip Calendar

There is no reason why Well-Being is not pouring into your experience – in precise detail in response to all of the things you have identified that you want – other than the fact that you are in a bad mood, or are angry, or worried about something.

It has been an obnoxiously, long, tedious week for me. The quote above says it all. Angry, bad mood, and worried all at the same time. How easy it is to look at “what is” and get pulled into the whirlpool of emotions that reflect “what is” at the moment. More positive thinking, while what is necessary in order to move forward, is not coming easily these days. So, add frustration to the list of emotions above.

I am looking forward to better days ahead.




The Personal Development List

I have never really considered my blog a personal development blog, but after a bit of contemplation and a good definition by Lorraine Cohen on Lyman’s blog, Creatingabetterlife.net, I decided that perhaps my blog did fit into that category.

Building upon your point that personal development covers so many areas. Developing anything that involves expanding perspective, creating new thought and experience opens doors to possibilities. Because of our uniqueness, we all bring a fresh perspective that, when combined, brings a picture greater than what we might have created alone. And when that picture is all inclusive without judgments or needing to be right, well, it gets pretty cool!

Priscilla Palmer from Personal Development Demands Success decided to put together a list of outstanding personal development bloggers.

She writes:

Personal development is a large topic that includes but is not limited to (law of attraction, goals, time management, physical fitness, education, motivation, inspiration, and social skills). This list should include any blog you feel can benefit us in our growth process.

She tagged Lyman, and Lyman tagged me and I, in turn, am tagging extraordinary bloggers that I feel fit into this category as well. The list on Priscilla’s blog is getting extensive and there are MANY wonderful bloggers listed there. Some I have or do read and many that I have not. I am looking forward to exploring and having my perspective enriched.

On to my picks :)

Oh My! I Married My Mom!

After my little rant last evening, I went to bed and had an ephinany. I married my mom! As I thought about how I was feeling, I felt that these emotions were very familiar to me. A theme in my life really which had a basis of my relationship with my mom. I thought I had all that childhood programming all sorted out, umm, well, I guess not!

First thing this morning, I sent a local EFT practioner, whom I have been emailing, an email which said “Okay, it is definitely time now. When can you fit me in?” It is definitely time to get this childhood issue sorted out because it is making it VERY hard to navigate the here and now in a productive way. I go for my first session on Saturday and I have a good feeling about it all. I think this is the start of me being able to “be happy anyway”.
