In order to change unwanted behavior patterns, it's helpful to become aware of what sets us off so we can practice catching ourselves in the act. The moment you realize the not so great behavior is happening, you can interrupt it by saying something like, "Here I go, it's happening right now." Then step back to watch yourself and make a more impressive choice about how to respond.

| So Thankful for these turkeys... |
 |
| I am so delighted |
 |
| and grateful to be the proud mom of three great boys and their girlfriends |
 |
| in loving and committed relationships |
 |
| an ice skater |
 |
| healthy as an ox |
 |
| clear about my next steps. |

For example:
 |
| Before skiing: I intend to be present in my body & stay grateful for all it does for me. |
Take responsibility for the fact that you created everything in your life via your thoughts.
Beliefs.
Focus.
Actions.
Energy.
You have the power to shift your mindset.
Raise your frequency, and create new things that will serve you better.
Get out of victim mode and into bada** mode, and be diligent about your mindset.

| We all have habitual places where we stop --- a certain threshold where something gets too intimate... |
or too expensive or too close to success for our comfort.
Crossing this threshold is exactly what we need to do to exit our comfort zones and transform our lives, which is why it's so terrifying to us and why our subconscious minds gather all the king's horses and all the king's men to make sure we run away, run away! So...
keep an eye out for the rallying cry to retreat, understand that you have arrived at the magical door to the other side, focus on this truth instead of the desire to get into bed and read books, and break on through to the other side.
is all around us
sometimes receiving it is simply a matter of looking at it differently, or not giving up so easily.

| You must keep your frequency high |
 |
| and your belief in limitless possibility strong to manifest your dream |
 |
| Pay Attention to yourself |
 |
| your awesome |
 |
| adorable, imperfect self & make the conscious effort to give yourself what you need, including all the riches that you desire. |
 |
| Taking a leap of faith is a win/win. |
 |
| I would like to add to all the screaming and yelling about all the importance of staying present in the moment by mentioning a benefit that's rarely discussed and here it is: |
 |
| Overwhelm cannot touch you when you're all wrapped up in the here and now. |
 |
| When you feel frustrated or upset |
 |
| by a person or situation, |
 |
| remember that your reactions are not the truth |
 |
| about the person or the situation, |
 |
| they are just your feeling about them. All you have to do is change your perception, and you are free. |
 |
| My mom used to always say; "Choose to take your life moment by moment and savor it, |
 |
| like pulling bonbons out of a heart-shaped box and popping them into your mouth, one by one." |
Overwhelm exists in the future:
"I have eleven hours alone on this Saturday, Martin has to work all day with the Vault 3 installation, a dog to walk, a cake to pick up at Tullie Bakery for my Mom's birthday, a dog to groom and trim his dew claw, the groceries to buy and all the laundry to do."
Staying present while thoughtfully filling each hour, or while getting the poo bags while thoughtfully cleaning up after the dog, or while smelling the scent in the bakery or while hanging up the clean laundry to dry - each of these moments is its own deal, packed with so much to be grateful for and enjoy.
These little moments have nothing nothing to do with the mountain of madness they get lumped in with. In the overwhelming future, why would I make the choice to do that?
Why not connect with and enjoy your moments on Earth like the great gifts they are?
Everyone's a jerk and everyone is awesome, we're all of it. When we're acting unconsciously and not at our highest level, it's because we're in pain and fear. Everyone is fighting his or her own inner battles. Do not define yourself and other people by our less than impressive behaviors. It's the pain speaking, and you can find compassion for a person in pain. If you want to be free, make the choice to forgive.

| There isn't a frequency quite like the frequency of a giver. |
 |
| It's right up there with the frequency of the lover. |

 |
| Faith helps you give How the Go. |
 |
| You created the life you're presently living by doing what you know how to do. |
 |
| And by being the person you know how to be. |
This may be because you're so busy focusing on what you think the How should look like that you can't see the new, unrecognizable How that the Universe is excitedly wagging in your face.
