PERFECTION

You will reap the fruits of your faith when you least expect it. It will seem like it came all of a sudden, but you and I know that that will not be true.

So hold on and keep pursuing your desired goal. The fact that you have the desire and goal is the very guide that the Universe has set in your heart.

When all forces meet at the intersection of syncronicity we will witness the perfection of the Universe

Are you experiencing challenges and is just basically dealing with thechallenges sending you for a spin? You must remain focused regardlessof what you’re dealing with.

The road to women’s empowerment will involve holding on to two words:

Tenacity:Tough minded persistency non yielding…and tireless effort regardless ofobstacles, opposition and or other’s opinions.

There are so manyobstacles that come before you and hinder you especially during theeconomic times of challenge. You must have tough minded persistency andbecome a woman of tenacity. You must be if you’re going to achieve yourdreams, live an empowered life, be an extraordinary woman leading anextraordinary life. You have to have a non-yielding and tireless effortregardless of obstacles. That’s something I want you to hold on toregardless of obstacles and opposition and we have great oppositionespecially women of faith and/or other’s opinions the opinions ofothers the opinions of the world, the opinions of society where itconcerns our faith. Tenacity, hold on to that.

Another is the word resolve; unwavering committed mindset adhering to a bold decision and strategy.

SoI want you to hold onto those two words as we move on. It takes muchcourage to continue in the midst of crisis. It takes passion, faith andmotivation.

I looked up the word crisis and there are a couple of definitions and they include the following;

Acrucial or decisive point or situation a turning point. A traumatic orstressful change in a person’s life; it’s also a term meaning a testingtime or an emergency event.

What I’d like you to answer is howdo you respond to crisis or what should your response be? If you’regoing to embrace any level of empowerment you’re going to need to havetenacity and there should be a resolve. It’s also important to have theright mindset in order to keep moving forward during the time of crisisduring a testing time. There will be continuous testing times as youmove along your journey towards an empowered life. There’s no questionabout it, you will have testing times as you move up to new levelsthere will be new testing. Build safeguards so you stay focused and youstay along the course that’s been set for you and given the fact I’mtalking about focus in crisis, learn to focus.

One of thehardest things to do in life when an unexpected change orcircumstances, disappointment etc. come your way is to stay focused.You are either experiencing so much pain or you’re so overwhelmed thatthe event tries to take your full attention. So how can you continuealong your path so the goals that you’ve set the action steps you’veset that will lead you to that goal long term, short term? The eventtries to take your full attention. One thing for sure is that therewill be unexpected situations, and that’s just the way it is. There arechanges and disappointments that are sure to come your way. Theessential thing is to learn how to remain focused during these timesand it is a learned state. Losing your focus can immobilize you, bindyou and make you ineffective in your life.

Here’s one thing not to do:



Don’t panic!

Thisis number one here as this may be the natural response by most and thatis to Panic. When I heard the call from my daughter saying “mommy Ican’t see” my first inclination was to panic and then I gave the callto my husband so that I could regroup and reach into my Faith. Panicwill send you spiraling down a staircase of many emotions sending youdeeper and deeper into a mode of gloom and defeat. Below I share otherthings you must do to stay focused that you also must do that will fuelyour ability to resist the panic stage. Unless you make an agreementwith yourself that you will not panic the other keys may not be aseffective in your endeavor to learn skills to help you stay focused in crisis.

Ifyou’d like to know more about how to stay focused in crisis I inviteyou to secure a copy of my special report “How to stay focused incrisis.” I share many more tips and insights in this area. Learn more by clicking here.

The Healthy Woman: Inside and Out

Love is a very vital source of our life. But as women, we are nurturers. We take care of everyone but ourselves. Those few times we dare to do something for ourselves; guilt sets in. We think we're being selfish. We even give ourselves excuses, as though we don't deserve to be pampered and cared for. Not all of us fit into this category some of us have learned the value of looking out for number one first. If you consistently take time for yourself...you GO GIRL! but if you don't read on.Excerpt from Chapter 3 of The Healthy Woman: Inside and OutVisit: http://www.aquariuscreationpublishing.com/portfolio.html

The Healthy Woman: Inside and Out

Becoming the healthy woman inside and out is a process. So where do you start? I believe that as women we should ground ourselves spiritually. When I think about the trials and tribulations that I have been through, I know the one that that kept me going was the Word. So right now, I want to tell you to WORD UP! The word will help you deal with any and all situations."I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (Phil. 4:13) Yes, you can. Believing and trusting that Christ is your energy source can cause a wonderful transformation in your life. Fear will be eliminated, doubt will disappear, discouragement will no longer exist and loneliness will not be a state of mind.Excerpts from Chapter 1 of "The Healthy Woman: Inside and Out"The book is now on sale for 1/2 price.

The Healthy Woman: Inside and Out

My mother and father would say, “What goes on in the house stays in the house.” Maybe your parents told you the same thing. So therefore, we grow up and become stingy. We don’t want to share. We say things like, “I don’t want anyone to know my business.” What business? Your business is somebody business because somebody has gone through you have been through. I recall having a conversation with a friend who said “Women should never go buy a car or furniture without a man.” Now for me that was some illogical thinking. With those beliefs and others we begin to lose sight of what is inside speaking to us and learn to listen to those individuals who believe they know what’s right for us. Let’s put them away forever and begin to listen to that inner spirit, that God spirit that says, “Whatever we want, need, or desire can be obtained.” Why? Because our Daddy, (yes, I like to call him Daddy) said so.The Bible talks about having FAITH as a small as a mustard seed and being able to say to a mountain move and it shall be moved. (Mat. 17:20). That’s some strong Faith. Well, I am here to tell you mothers, daughters, and sisterfriends, inside of you lives that same kind of faith. The minute you bring it to the surface, change will take place.Change takes place when you get sick and tired of being sick and tired. It takes place when you get tired of doing the same thing day in and day out. It takes place when you get tired of those temporary fixes. It takes place when your emotional bank balance becomes overdrawn. It takes place when you have grounded yourself spiritually and began having FAITH. Faith knows that whatever you ask for it shall be given to you. That’s called unshakeable, without doubts faith. This kind of faith happens to The Healthy Woman: Inside and Out.for more: http://www.aquariuscreationpublishing.com/portfolio.html

A Prescription for What Ails Sisters

Sisters, if you are stressed out, your self-confidence has taken a vacation and you are not where you want to be in life, just remember that our lives are a series of ebbs and flows. We, as Black women, must continue to do 3 things:1. Believe that we are worth "it" whatever "it" is for you. "It" could be a successful business, successful romantic relationship, our dream home, our dream career, good health, more money than we know what to do with - the list is endless.2. Stop being afraid or too proud to ask for help. All you have to do is ask. More people will say "yes" than those who will say "no." Those who say "no" are not meant to be a part of your success.3. Stop worrying. Ten years ago I heard author Iyanla Vanzant speak in Atlanta and I took shorthand (yea, I'm that old) notes during her talk; still have the notes and you know what she said about worrying? Do you remember as a kid in school when they told us in case our clothes catch on fire, we are to stop, drop, and roll? Well, whatever is worrying you (which manifests itself as low self-confidence) stop worrying, drop trying to figure it out or work it out and roll it into God's hands.This is Dr. Carmin's prescription for what ails me and my sisters.Carmin Wharton is a home-based business expert and the founder of e-BlackWomenNetwork.com, a membership community designed to take businesses owned by women of color from start up to prosperity. Carmin's mission is to help women earn what they're worth and make it big in their home-based business on their own terms.

Allow Good Things Into Your Life

Allow Good Things Into Your LifeBy using positive affirmations, we can build confidence and get what we want out of life.By Charlene M. Proctor, Ph.DEveryone gets off track from time to time – it’s normal and a consequence of living in a complex, stressful world. Attract abundance and maintain a good mental equivalent by raising your vibration. Raising your vibration means giving loving attention, or energy, to what you want. We get faster results by attuning to an idea of what we want and then allowing it to come into our lives, because we are already in a state of thankfulness that it is here. That is another reason we write affirmations in the present moment: there really isn’t any other time in our lives that is important. Live in the now, thank in the now, love in the now, and allow prosperity to happen in the now, knowing it is already present.When we concentrate on the effects of the world, rather than our supply, we lower our vibrational quality, making it much harder to demonstrate what we want. You’ve heard the concept of alignment and finding “center” from many spiritual teachers, achieved by chanting, prayer, meditation, chakra balancing, even martial arts or exercise. Those activities help raise your vibrational quality by helping you to identify or resonate with the true self, so that goodness can manifest. Essentially, you are attuning to your God-force. That is why in affirmations, we focus on the “I am” within us and align our vibrational quality with that of our God/Goddess energy.We do a pretty job of cultivating our own negative programming and often bring to the table a lot of negative assumptions about money and abundance that lower our vibration. You might recognize these.·It was never meant for me to have money.· I’m poor but clean (or good, pure, happy, content).· If I want to lead a spiritual life and be closer to God, it means I must have to give everything up. I’ll be like Christ (or Buddha, Rumi, Mohammed, Mother Teresa) because not having any material wealth means I am purer (or righteous, religious, going to get a better afterlife).· You can live a pure life only without material items.· I don’t want to learn about how money works – I’ll just let ______________do it.· I just want to spend money.· I only care about large sums of money. Why should I pick up a penny off the sidewalk?· It’s not worth my time, so I’ll just do a mediocre (or lousy) job.This shows overall disrespect for your true supply when it’s giving you an opportunity. Choose not to do the job instead!· Prosperity means I have to take something away from someone else.· I can’t enjoy wealth because I feel guilty.· I will never be able to afford that.You are building a “can’t afford” consciousness. You will bring more events and things into your life that you cannot afford.· I can’t imagine having a million dollars – I wouldn’t know what to do with it.· If I had a million dollars, I’d give it all away.·If I become wealthy, why should I be generous? I struggled so long, I’m going to let everyone else know how it feels not to have anything.· People who have money are wealthy snobs.· Being rich is selfish. You can have too much money.· Rich people consume all the world’s natural resources. I love the earth too much to be rich.· Money represents temptation and evil.· I don’t deserve what I really want.· I don’t want this deal not to work out.If you’re constantly worried about lack, you’ll attract it.· I just want to be rich.This one is particularly self-defeating, because you’ll spend your energy on getting the money without any focus on how to do it.You won’t be able to demonstrate the law of being with this type of mental muck. Start affirming that you are a prosperity magnet because you possess the boundless wealth of the universe without exception. Spend time raising your vibration. Say that you attract all good things today, not tomorrow or next week. Love yourself, praise your abilities in the present moment, and build feelings of confidence.· I am a prosperous, intelligent, capable individual who can do anything.· I deserve health, wealth, love, and happiness in my life. I thank the universe for my opportunities.· I pay my bills with love and joy…Come on, you can do this one!· I love that I have the ability to pay this bill, and I rejoice in the goods and services I have received as a result of this bill.· I see the abundance in the universe everywhere I go. I see it in myself.· I am a loving individual, who is part of unlimited creation; therefore, I am unlimited in what I can do.· I am my divine self and I choose to demonstrate my highest good. I prosper everywhere I go because I love life.· I am an open channel to receive my abundance from the universe. I am open to new opportunities.Remain open to the possibility that the universe is infinitely more creative than you in choosing the channel for abundance to flow through. If you outline exactly how you want to receive your good, you are definitely giving the idea some clarity. But be flexible. Devising a mental equivalent to own the winning lottery ticket might be a way to manifest abundance, but you are limiting the avenues by which good can come to you. Likewise, it’s great to visualize opening the front door to discover a huge basketful of money, but it is more likely that the universe will present prosperity through people and opportunities. Be attentive and keep your options open.Maintain high vibrational quality by practicing verbal harmlessness. Always extend loving thoughts to those around us. What you see in others is what you will see in yourself, and you’ll reproduce that vibration in your immediate environment. You are attracting that which you are, or think you are. If you are attuning to the highest vision of your true self, how can you go wrong? There are also two words you need to eradicate from your vocabulary: hate and try. Hate, because you can’t have hate as part of your mindset even if you are talking about the corned beef sandwich you had for lunch. Try, because if you say you will try something, it implies that you aren’t going to do it now, only sometime in the future.Learn to set a mental equivalent of gentleness and generosity and act with poise, grace, loving-kindness, ease, and serenity. You’ll be surprised how little practice you will need until you permanently internalize those peaceful qualities within and find others possessing those qualities who are part of your everyday experience.Practicing verbal harmlessness also applies to what you say about you. Nothing lowers your vibration quicker than self-criticism. Whatever you say about yourself applies to everyone because we’re the same soul substance – and what you see in a mirror is what you will see in every person in your life. If I say I am weak, poor, or broke, I am saying you are too, because we are the same substance. Further, if I say I am stupid, I have just called the Divine stupid – not empowered thinking! By putting yourself down, you are conditioning your mind to believe it, which means you are focusing on lack in yourself. How can the infinite self lack? Become conscious of the spirit within you as your infinite supply. Know that you are composed of perfect soul material. Keep your affirmations in the present tense, be positive, stop using hate and try, stop self-criticism, and know that you are already wonderfully rich.
