10 Actions For An Inspired Life!

10 Actions For An Inspired Life!

1. Wake up on the right side of the bed.  Set your mind immediately upon awakening by choosing a sacred image or thought to focus on while breathing slowly and stretching in bed.


2. Catch negative thinking and immediately say “Cancel that thought” to yourself.  Choose an appropriate alternative thought and state it in your mind and out loud if possible.


3. Look at life hiccups as life lessons.  Ask yourself, “What is it I’m supposed to learn here?


4. Accept distractions.  Stop being so hard on yourself.  Simply acknowledge that you’ve been distracted and refocus on your current project.


5. Celebrate the goodness in those around you.  It seems easy to rehearse negative attributes.  Challenge yourself to see the good qualities of those around you, especially those who challenge you the most.


6. Want to remain calm in tense situations?  Focus on your physiology.  Know exactly how you become upset, what happens in your body and respond immediately with slow breathing and the slow blinking of your eyes to calm the central nervous system.


7. Project fullness of health and high energy – using your visual imagination is great to use here.


8. Have faith in a positive outcome.  Expect it.  Call it to you.


9. Find a mentor.  In a world culture of ‘individualism’ break the rules and find someone to help you grow.  Then turn around and offer this gift to another.


10. If you want to feel more optimistic, choose to surround yourself with those who already live optimism as a way of life.
