Today What if...

There is so much more to life than meets the eye.

Dare we to dream of a world of peace, personal fulfilment, wealth beyond imagination and all the rest of Utopia?

My personal answer is why not?

We all have dreams. We all have faith in our dreams. However the majority of the time we place all our faith on how dreams cannot be accomplished, with very little time spent with our hearts filled with an expectant awaiting for our deepest wishes to become reality.

At this point I will vary from most sites that I have seen where the individual can list a whole lifetime of struggle, then using their positive thinking, achieved great things.

I would hardly call my life to date a struggle but I cannot also point to any tangible evidence of success in many of the areas of life that I dream of.

However this is where I like to think I can join in with others, many of whom I believe to be convinced of a greater ability as a Human to shape our destiny.

My personal philosophy is that we all think that something extraordinary has to happen in order for things to change – long hours of hard work, a unique new idea or a lottery win! Perhaps many of us feel that we cannot make any worthwhile contribution for advancing the world.

My belief is that this could not be further from the truth. I believe that it is in the everyday, minute-by-minute actions of us all that can completely change the world. In truth I should say my belief is that it is the intention behind these actions.

I would like to invite you to join in some daily, lighthearted observations on how to perhaps view everyday occurrences and emotions in a slightly different way.

What am I offering?

I am offering a free tri-weekly e-zine that will start with contemplation for the day in the form of Today What If… (example.doc).

The contemplations do not follow any particular pattern but I hope that over a period of time they will cover most aspects of our being. Many of them may also appear very simplistic but, as mentioned above, I believe that it is in attention to the small details that our lives can be transformed.

I will follow this with my views on how the change expounded may help to lead towards a more prosperous/ healthy/ happy future. Obviously these are personal and I am sure many may find fault with my logic but my hope is that, even in the questioning, more clarity may come to mind.

Lastly I can refer you on to more polished, seasoned performers who gave me the inspiration to have produced this site in the first place.

My model

I give thanks to Rabbi Hillel for the model that I believe we can all follow to prove that my opening statement can be one of certainty:

Guard your thoughts they lead to words, which lead to actions, which lead to habits, which lead to character, that leads to destiny.

Given this model consider the following:

• Thoughts – respect for all, confidence, abundance
• Words – I acknowledge you with an open heart, I totally believe in my abilities in my chosen field, I appreciate daily the abundance that is all around.
• Actions – Listening to others without preconceptions, total focus with clarity in my occupation, looking for more evidence of total abundance
• Habits – attentive listener, conscientious worker, gratitude
• Character – Good communicator, productive worker, positive outlook
• Destiny – loving environment, personal fulfilment, and abundance.

This is obviously a simple example but I don’t think it is too hard to see that there is a definite thread that runs between the links.

It is also possible to use this chain in reverse so that, for instance, if you have a ‘bad’ habit you can link it back to the initial thoughts that set the pattern. Now it is clear what is a necessary – different thought!! Sounds easy doesn’t it!!!

What am I not offering?

I am not offering any religious or outwardly spiritual standpoints.

As you will probably notice most of the material is addressed to myself and really stands for my personal viewpoints. I have come to these conclusions with the help of material from many religions, personal development teachers etc…

My belief is that I can follow simple procedures to lead myself towards more fulfilment and my total faith that this is the case encouraged me to offer sharing this journey with others.

Challenge

Please read through the following from Marianne Williamson and consider if you think there may be an element of truth?

‘Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate; our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that frightens us most. Who are we not to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? You are a child of God; your playing small does not serve the world. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in all of us.’

I hope the mention of God will not put some off this magnificent challenge.

Is it not true that it is far easier to conform to some basic image or even deliberately set oneself small targets in order to not stick out from the crowd? I certainly know I do!!

Reading this rings a chord that I know, for me, will have to played at some stage. I hope it may lead you to more of everything.

PEACE, ABUNDANCE, LOVE, HAPPINESS, BEAUTY, APPRECIATION, MAGNIFIENCE, PROSPERITY, VIBRANT HEALTH, GOODWILL – I JUST ADDED THESE BECAUSE I LIKE THEM!
