Your Thoughts Create Your Reality

Your Thoughts Create Your RealityMind is Powerful

You are living a life – whether it is one of greatness or mediocrity is up to you. Use your mind to create the life you choose.

“What you fill your mind with you fill your life with”
~ Clarence Caldwell

This is a favorite saying of mine. In fact I like it so much that I use it often when talking to people about improving their lives. You may have heard similar statements – but this says it all. I actually had it Trade Marked. Not sure why – but after getting feedback on the efficacy of this quote – It seemed like a good idea at the time
The truth is that none of us own concepts like this so it seems a bit ridiculous that we can actually TM a quote and call it our own.
Nonetheless, With the power that we have to create our own reality it stands to reason that we should care for this gift. Care for it not only by recognizing the power but also by honing it in a way that allows us to use it freely and easily with the greatest amount of effectiveness. If we can really create greatness for our lives – why aren’t we learning everything we can to become masters at doing so? For many years I thought I knew the facts around attracting things into my life by merely thinking of them and holding them in my conscious long enough to imprint them upon my subconscious mind.
I would venture to guess that this is where most people stand in the knowledge of this phenomenon. Why not take it a step further? Hell, why not take it a quantum leap further? If it really works the way we think it does – then why aren’t we teaching this to our kids and in our schools?
For some reason the Western World has put such value on monetary wealth that the true value of life and fulfillment have taken a back seat. Unfortunately, in doing so we have cut ourselves short of the reality that accompanies this powerful gift of manifestation via the mind. Contrary to how we are taught to think, we really don’t have to sacrifice the monetary gains that we have come to covet. The ability to create our reality by manifestation of thought also includes our financial situation or status. For some reason we have adopted the idea that financial freedom only comes from hard work, crime / cheating or simply by luck. The truth that I know personally through life lessons and experience is that wealth can be manifested in your life by changing your thoughts about it. Of course it does not magically appear as a result of thinking about dollar signs, but there is a direct correlation between your attracting the financial abundance and the thoughts and beliefs you have surrounding your relationship with money.
I picked money as an example because I was certain that would hold your attention and help make the point about your mind creating your reality. But know this – The same is true for he other ‘success measures’ we have in our lives (Career, Health and Relationships.)
Apply the right principles, techniques and practices to managing your mind and beliefs and you can produce a great level of success in any area of life that you focus on. The operative instruction here is applying the techniques, and practices – not just merely focusing on the outcome.
In a future article I will explore these effective practices and tools that can be used to manage your mind and beliefs thus creating the world, the life, the existence that you desire.

You are living a life – whether it is one of greatness or mediocrity is up to you. Use your mind to create the life you choose.

Life Coaching Does Not Sit Well With Me.

You may think that since I am a Coach of sorts – that my statement would seem incongruent with my profession. In fact because I am so outspoken about how coaches operate – I get a lot of flack from my peers in the industry. Funny how the ones that are only focused on getting the next client or are not knowledgeable about how to really connect with people while bringing out their gifts have the most to say about some of my comments. I often challenge other coaching methods and techniques. (in a loving way of course) It is possible that I get a little flack because I do so in public – of course not calling anyone out in particular, but clearly I speak often about some of the so called coaching methods used.

Through my coaching practice I have learned very quickly that people are so different that one coaching style or even one method does not fit all. You would think this is obvious and it certainly should be, but the truth is that there are essentially a very small number of methods (with variation) that are used in the coaching industry. This begins to feel very much like the ‘a few sizes fit all’ mentality. But even as we are so different in our physical make up as people – we are even more different and even more complex in our mental and emotional make up. That makes it nearly impossible to try hanging off the rack coaching clothes on all clients. Even with Small, Medium and Large sizes on the rack – many of us need a little tailoring in order to feel comfortable in certain clothes.

Could you imagine the coach of the US Soccer Team trying to coach a prize fighter like Manny Pacquiao or Floyd Mayweather how to win a fight. Foot speed though important in boxing is not as important as hand speed. I’m afraid that either of these two fighters would suffer defeat very soon in their careers if they followed the guidance of the Soccer Coach. Of course this is not realistic – but I think it is just as ludicrous to have a coach for your Life that does not know your life skills, your capacity for change, your beliefs, your fears, and so on.

The potential Life Coach won’t know these things about anyone before taking them on as a client – but if the coach does not get to these issues within a very short time of engaging with the potential client – then they are not worth their weight in fertilizer.

Would love to hear your thoughts…
