Make a commitment this month to gain balance in your life, where the energy that flows out of you is matched by what you receive. Where the people in your life give to you from their heart and treat you with love, respect and consideration. Set your intention for and insist on being with like-minded people who appreciate you for who you are and release those who do not. Then allow yourself to know what it means to feel the peace, joy and clarity that comes with being in balance with your own energy and claim the miracles that are yours for the asking.

Today I recieved an e-mail from
The Marketing Minute
by Marcia Yudkin, Marketing Expert and Mentor
http://www.yudkin.com/markmin.htm
Talk about syncronicity – here is her post
You’ve slaved over your product and your marketing copy – or over a blog post, position paper or proposal.
Your audience – not just one person, but a chorus of four or five – offers a response that’s radically off the mark.
One of two reactions is very common:
* “Ouch!” You withdraw, lick your wounds and sulk.
* “You’re wrong!” A vigorous counterattack ensues.
Hard as this might be, don’t take the feedback as a personal failure or evidence that people are hasty readers, sloppy thinkers or downright stupid.
Instead, communication has failed. Communication has a sender and a receiver. Consider therefore that you are 50 percent responsible for the misfire.
Take a deep breath and turn on your curiosity:
* What did you say or do – or not say or do – that led to that impression?
* What can you change or add to help people receive your message as intended? If it’s too late to modify what went out, learn for next time.
Getting upset or angry about feedback is natural. I’ve been there, too. Transcend that, though, and your marketing gets better and better.
I have been ‘attempting’ to be a content writer on a talent agency’s blog. I got a note earlier this week saying, ‘ The blog posts of ***** agency have a required word range of xxx-xxx words. Both the blog posts you have done are below the minimum range. [communication - I forgot this requirement]
It has also been pointed out that no creativity is being shown in the posts Can you please address these problems in the current and future posts? You can use the previous posts as a guide for style’. [ahh, creativity is definitely in the eye of the beholder - I need to find some]
Thank heavens for Marcia’s e-mail today. I had withdrawn – not to sulk, but feeling not my best. I will move along now and learn from my mistakes.
So often we drop back into our old thoughts / patterns. I was very happy to recieve a cosmic prod.
This morning I opened an e-mail and it contained a quote by Dawna Markova
“I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit.”
I am always impressed with where the Universe leads me in my web searches; how interconnected we all are. I can not wait to go back and search out more about her. Did you know that she wrote ‘Random Acts of Kindness’ and a version for kids? There is a number of books she wrote at http://www.ptpinc.org/store/page6.html
How can we read all these wonderful books and learn all the new and exciting information that is being written and shared at this time? I for one am setting my intent to learn what I can of all the loving information that is being shared and allow it to add a ripeness, a fullness to my life.

A year and a half ago, I re-connected with a lady I had met in a wonderful metaphysical training. She wanted to participate in a program called SHARE (combined purchasing power and volunteerism are the keys to this program). At thanksgiving, I had watched the TV clips about volunteers helping serve food and thought I’d like to do something where I could help others with food (intent). Just a week later Mary called and explained her idea of becoming a host group (synchronicity). What I have noticed is that I now have more food that I ever had expected. (abundance).
For 2 hours of volunteering to help someone else and $20.00 you can receive $45.00 of food. Such a bargain. In addition, joining this group has a trickle down effect. Once we started helping others, all sorts of good things started happening in our lives. What we are wondering is that if helping others has brought such abundance and joy into our lives, why hasn’t it caught on?
Anyone wanting to learn more can go to http://www.sharefoodprogram.org. This program does not have anything to do with your income; everyone is eligible. The only requirement is that you help someone else.
It seems like all levels of my life have been impacted by this one small thing. I started meeting more and more metaphysical people, my life itself seems so much better, and I have adapted to the reality that I am now a retired senior citizen. In other words I am happy, joyful, blessed. No I am not rich (by any means), but I am content and able to manage with what I have. Do not misunderstand what I am saying, I still have bumps in the road – challenges to be dealt with. The difference now is in how I am experiencing everything. I am so thankful for all these changes and I feel that they are the result of reaching out to help others.
