Never close a door on a dream – your dreams are calling you!

Have you been feeling pressured, worried or overwhelmed by responsibilities and financial concerns? There's an old saying: "When the going gets tough, the tough get going".

Here are seven suggestions that if accepted and applied will help you gain control of your focus and time, and open the door to living a more relaxed life:

1. Take a Deep Breathe! It Works!

Rather than listen and hold court on all of the catastrophic predictions being blasted out into the Universe, stop for a moment, and simply be with yourself. Deep Breathe and you will loosen the tension in your joints. Remind yourself several times a day of how good it feels to be calm. If you make time to relax and rest, you will slowly break free from routines that distract and upset you. Relaxing goes hand in hand with turning within for wisdom and guidance. Put on some music! As you deep breathe and relax your body on a daily basis, not only will you calm down, but you will discover inner resources that live within the depths of your being.

2. Stop Looking for a Red Pill!

Instead of looking for a quick financial fix, find ways to release frustrating energy. Re-connect to your self-worth not just your net worth. Now is the time to become creatively responsive - not aggressive. Develop patience, perception and persistence as you learn to walk through a storm with your head held high! Every time you learn something new from a challenging situation, congratulate yourself. Remember, it is helping you to grow into an empowered being.

3. Design a Fabulous Money Blueprint and Transform Your Fears!

Feast your eyes on your inner lighthouse (mental blueprint) until it motivates you to take action towards its realization. Tap into your courage moment by moment and your doubts will dissolve. Encourage yourself to move out of your comfort zone and keep going no matter how bleak the situation appears. Nothing can stop the fulfillment of your dream except an opposing belief.

4. Cultivate Play Dates. Laugh and Have Fun!

There is a line in the play "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" that goes like this. "You have to laugh, especially when things aren't so funny." Laughter is the best medicine. Did you know that children laugh around four hundred times a day? How often do you laugh? The point is that we all need to replenish ourselves. Do you value leisure time or is it a thing of the past in your lifestyle. Recreation helps us surrender all unnecessary pressure and demands that we place on ourselves and those we love. Fun is essential in the maintenance of health. Consider creating some fun time to express your talents and abilities in a hobby, sport or artistic endeavor.

5. Learn to Focus on the Good that You Are Receiving. Experience the Moment. Start Living Now!

Instead of multi-tasking or concentrating on problem after problem or talking about what you are losing, get in touch with the present moment and focus on everything good that you are receiving. Last year while having lunch in Mexico, I had a conversation with a woman that left its mark. She said, "You know Melissa, if you practiced a little every day, I bet you could become a great receiver of the Universe's gifts." That comment has helped me live more in the moment and now I enjoy spending time giving thanks and acknowledging small gifts - an unexpected phone call, hearing good news about a friend or family members recovery, looking up at the sky, smelling a rose, or receiving an unexpected invitation. Right this minute a bird arrived on my window sill and he is chirping and singing his song. I have to stop and laugh. You see it doesn't matter what it is-what matters is that you focus on receiving. Feast your mind on what makes you feel good and give thanks that you are growing into a receptive, empowered receiver of Life's generous gifts.

6. Reach Out to Others.

Take a moment and think of someone who has been there for you. How did it make you feel? Do you consider yourself wealthy in friendship? Are you rich in love, truth principles, humor, good ideas and or forgiveness? Share your compassion with those who are panicking over the world economy and wondering how they are going to cope with change. Let them know you care. I did not say sympathize with them but rather inspire them to shift into a new perspective - regardless of the financial storm. You never want to go down to the level of anyone's problem and vibrate (identify) with it, rather seek to uplift others through creative ideas, kindness and humor. It works. A month ago I received the most beautiful bouquet of flowers with an unsigned note. It brought me joy for days! Be creative. Pick up the phone, plan a pot luck dinner, send a note, flowers, or even an e-card and thank someone for being in your life. The more you give from your heart the more you will receive. Try it. Reach out and let someone know that you care and you will light up the Universe.

7. Set Your Priorities Because You Are Powerful.

Life consists of making decisions and choices. Instead of getting hysterical or rushing with the crowd, stop, breathe, and turn within to your own wonderful imagination.  You must decide what is most important to you. Now may be a good time to set a new course, let go of what needs to be released, navigate through the current up's and downs of world events with hope, or simplify your life and grow spiritually. I know it's not easy to break or make a new habit. But it is possible to achieve it if you have a dream or a desire to expand and grow.

I want you to remind you that you were born to express riches in all aspects of your life. Isn't it time that you became aware of your birthright to live the abundant life? Take time to invest in your most important asset - you. Do this and in time you may discover that the Universe will mirror a wonderful gift right back at you.

If you find yourself in a rut and feeling hopeless in the midst of the financial melt down and you really want to lift yourself up by the bootstraps and get on the road to true prosperity, now is the time to discover the power of your imagination and learn why you are always attracting or repelling the results you seek. Use your imagination wisely and you will become a living magnet to the wealth and success that you seek.

Housed within you is the code to succeed.

Your feelings are worth a fortune. They can link you to a world where all things are possible once your know How to Unleash the Power Within and Attract Money

Never close a door on a dream - your dreams are calling you!

To me, compulsive thinking is when those unwanted or upsetting thoughts go round and round in our heads like a groove that’s stuck in a broken record. It’s a difficult cycle to break because many times we feel we can not control it and the thoughts and ruminations are controlling us.

Let’s not diminish the difficult times, situations and conversations that create these non-stop replays. However, if we want to go on with our lives and enjoy the moment at hand, then we have to take our thoughts into our own hands and work with them.

 I recently interviewed Melissa Zollo imagist, speaker and author of Discover the Power of Imagination and the Art of Intentional Creation.”(www.presentmemory.com)  She talked about how our mental blueprints determine our behavior, what we attract in life and why “our feelings are worth a fortune”.

 Zollo's audio programs are tools that get you to discover that no problem needs to go unsolved, no goal must go unmet, and no desire need remain unfulfilled.

So how do you attract what you want when your feelings are not in line with your desires?

****According to Zollo, focus on the solution.
****Image the outcome until you feel it to be true.
****Do not think about the process rather expand your thoughts and recycle feelings of fear into joy.

So if you need more joy in your life, image the things that bring you joy, feel joy and act from joy. This takes practice.

Physical movement can also move those thoughts away from the stuck groove.  For me, walking on the beach even on the coldest day in my bulky down coat, can lift me out of unwanted thoughts. If the thoughts that are running your brain continue to the point that you feel you need to take a different action, pay attention to that.  Sometimes, those thoughts are important warning messages and not just “looped thinking.”  We need to pay more attention to our intuition and our values.  What does your gut tell you is really right?  Are you self-indulgently replaying old tapes over and over? Or do you have valid points that must be addressed?

For some, medication is an answer to help the brain reprogram itself. For others, it’s a do-it-yourself course in self-discipline and conscious manifestation. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. There are so many wonderful mental health professionals who have the tools to help you.  Some are better with psychiatrists and psychologists.  Others get help from therapists, counselors, social workers, life coaches and alternative therapies.

When compulsive thinking starts to take over, “stand above yourself in your mind’s eye”  and tell yourself that you are in a compulsive mode and that this will pass. Then do mental exercises, listen to healing music, take a soothing bath, or anything else that brings you back to the moment so you can be present.  Staying present keeps you out of the past. Call a friend or make an appointment with your counselor or therapist.  But know in your heart that you will be OK and that this “too shall pass.”
