As I picked up Kitty on the last day of volleyball tryouts yesterday, she was very quiet. I asked her how she did and all she did was shake her head. “HOW DID YOU DO?” She began to tell me that she didn’t feel her tryouts were that good and because they were scoring everyone on a points system this year, she “just wasn’t sure”.
So, in my newfound “positive” thinking I told her to imagine all of her volleyball games from last year and how she served 10 points in a row to win a game in one of their tournaments! She started smiling – and with that feeling, I told her to tell me that she made the team, and so she did. When we went back to the school after 7 and before she got out of the car, I told her to tell me that she made the team – she looked at me like everything I had been telling her was completely corny, rolled her eyes and said it anyway. She had to wait about 10 minutes before the teams were posted and guess what? She. Made. The. Team!
Ummm Huuuuh! You arrrrrre welcome!
I finished reading The Secret and the Secret is about the Law of Attraction. Basically, every thought we think is put out into the world – positive or negative – and it is exactly – positivity or negativity which comes back to us! It is this book and Notes from the Universe which started the wheels turning in my mind – about EVERYTHING! The other day, I was reading one of my favorite blogs Did I Just Eat That Outloud where the events of her blog post mommy cries really hit me this past Monday – the first day of school. I am watching a movie that catapults to this really awesome and inspiring moment and I just start bawling! I FEEL so happy and good and blessed and yet I can’t quit crying! It was one of those moments where I KNEW I was meant to do, be and have something really great , but the reality and fear of change added to my elation, confusion and tears.
Anyway, these books above have really helped me change my thought process. AND, it will be these books that I will revere over the next few months while I am trying to help my children and I lose weight and discover life’s other possibilities!
As I’ve written before, Building Blocks come in all shapes, sizes, forms, (and now) thoughts – you just have to start at the bottom and work your way up!
My goal this weekend is to start visualizing ALL of the things I WANT in this life and act like I already have them. Tomorrow I will send you and the Universe the list of these “things” that I KNOW I will have in my life!
Do you need to do anything to make your life better, richer, or fuller?
Oh yeah - learning how to (quiet the mind) during meditation is on my to-do list! Oh Man, the things I think about when I'm NOT trying to think!!!! ;-)
