What Are You Reflecting?!



 “We attract to ourselves what we hold inside.  Every circumstance, every person, and every situation that we attract and experience is based on what is inside of us…Your life is a reflection of what you hold inside you, and what you hold inside you is always under your control.”

~ Daily Teaching from “the Secret”*



In the past two days, I have discussed the importance of being yourself and releasing the baggage in your life’s journey.  Today we are going in!  Going into ourselves and taking a long hard look at what we reflect and attract.  Think about your circumstances, personal relationships and situations you face.  Are you living a proactive life or a reactive one?  Do you attract the type of people that match your inner convictions and outlook on life?  Is every situation you face a lesson or a setback?  If you met someone that reflected what you have inside you, would you like that person?  The answer to these questions may vary depending on what you are carrying within yourself.  Since our lives are an inner reflection, we could all benefit from some interior design!

  

Do you know someone that lives a negative life full of issues, enemies and drama?  Chances are high that this person generates every bad thing that happens to them through their poor attitude/outlook.  Their lives reflect what they attract and they attract what they reflect.  You may not be the person I am referring to, but we can all relate.  Often times when bad things happen, relationships fail or we are caught in a difficult situation, we tend to blame the world.  Next time you find yourself pointing a finger, put it down and look at yourself.  If you do not like what you see, gain control over what you attract and reflect.  Take responsibility for the vibes you are sending out.  After all, you are the best person to exercise control over your life!

Today’s challenge is to alter what is inside of you to enhance your life’s reflection.  Once you have completed this step, sit back and see what you attract!  Although we cannot predict what will come, we can create a life that draws in positive circumstances, people and situations.  So what are you waiting for?!  Purify your thoughts, eliminate the negative and shine so bright that people will want to bottle it!  Continue to be inspired my loves!  Come back next week for more, I MOTIVATES and bring a friend!

Travel Light! Have A “Carry-On” Life!

“Simplicity is making the journey of this life with just baggage enough.”

~Charles Dudley Warner

Have you ever over packed for a trip?  The effects of this choice can follow you from your house all the way to your destination!  When you pack, it seems like EVERYTHING you own has a purpose and you simply cannot leave it.  Burdened down with your precious belongings, you suffer aches and pains lugging it to the airport.  To add insult to injury, you are hit with baggage fees that cost as much as the trip!  Then the absolute worst observation is at the end of it all.  The part where you realize you only needed a third of the crap you brought with you!  Had you only taken what you needed, you could have saved stress, pain and money.  Life is the same way! 



Nobody Does It Better!

Yesterday was all about creating your outlook; today is about embracing your unique flavor!  From a young age, we are taught to be ourselves, but almost everything in life convinces us otherwise.  Let me ask you a question…How much time have you spent living up to anothers' expectations?  As a matter of fact, take a good look at yourself right now!  Are you wearing an outfit that makes you happy?  Have you accepted your flaws and capitalized on your positive attributes?  Are you doing work that expands on your talents?  We waste copious amounts of time in life trying to be what we are not.  Often sacrificing our own happiness for the temporary—or absent—applause from the world, we can lose sight of who we really are. 

I Have Mine! What Is Yours?!

Everybody has one…everybody needs one!  Funny thing is, you probably never thought about it!  If you haven’t sat down and created one, you probably suffer unnecessary confusion and stress in your life.  So today’s mission is to THINK ABOUT, PRIORITIZE, CREATE and LIVE BY your very own *outlook*!  One of my favorite quotes sparked today’s topic…

“Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”

-Winston Churchill
