1. MANAGE YOURSELF
You can not be a success in life if you don’t first manage your own. This means your health, your finances and your independance. Get into a solid routine, target the weak spots and seek education. Do the things you are afraid to do if they will make you a stronger person.
2. HEAL YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
Relationships are everything. They are a reflection of ourselves. How people treat you, how you treat them, what you say and experience from them all tells a story about you. If a relationship does not have free, flowing unconditional love then it is unhealthy. Identify the block, remove it or move on. We can only control our own thoughts and behaviors. Do your best to be your best and you will attract people into your life of that same quality.
3. GO WITHIN
A routine connection to your inner self gives you deep peace. As the waves of life challenge you, you will always be anchored. Too often the waves of life pull us away from our center. If we make it a habit to practice solitude and deep inner reflection, we will always be able to find that place of peace.
4. PURIFY
The world is a different place today. Too many unskillful humans made too many “deals” from greed and fear. The chemicals are killing us. Almost everything we consume has hormones or chemicals that the body is not designed to work with. The cells mutate or die in response (but not after a long fight). We can help our body, our kidneys, skin and liver clear away debris by improving our habits. We can upgrade what we allow ourselves to be exposed to. I always recommend that if you are new to purifying your life, these 5 things are easy/fast and impactful:
1. Shower filter (it is proven that skin absorbs chemicals into blood)
2. Use a Clear2O Filter or any brand that takes out chlorine (it mutates cells)
3. Every Sunday, buy a bunch of colorful, raw and organic fruits and veggies, cut up, put in containers and mix in all week (do not cook). Raw has electricity (i.e. “life) in them – dead food does not.
4. Change your soap to Kiss My Face Olive Oil bar
5. Stop caffeine, sugar (bread) and make water your favorite beverage
5. LAUGH AND PLAY
There is nothing better for creativity, building relationships and coming up with excellent solutions then playing and enjoying laughter. To be too serious is to be fearful. The “serious” people in life are trying to be in control but joy can only come if you let go of control. The funny thing is that as soon as you let go of control completely – you are finally IN control. The universe always rewards the brave -never the fearful.
6. FORGIVE
The healthiest thing anyone can do is to forgive. This does not mean you still allow behavior that is dishonorable. It means you open your heart to the possibility that the injury inflicted upon you was from another human being (like yourself) perhaps scared, in need of something, mindless or just unaware. Forgiveness sets you free to enjoy the present moment and whatever shows up in it!
7. LOVE AND ACCEPT YOURSELF
You are a unique expression of life. There is nothing about you that is not “good”. We are all learning and growing. Enjoy your own company.
8. BE GRATEFUL
We attract in life the totality of our own thoughts and feelings. The sooner we learn this the faster we are in control of what shows up in our life. As you notice the abundance around you, more comes. As you notice the health you have, more comes. As you notice your own beauty, more comes. As you notice the love around you, move comes. Whatever you are grateful for, whatever you feel love toward – it will grow and expand. Its law.
9. CUT THE FAT AND BUILD THE MUSCLE
Keep your life simple. If you have much clutter in terms of stuff in your life on the physical level, it is often the case that on the metaphysical level there is also clutter – emotional clutter. If you have imbalances on the physcial level, then on the metaphysical level there is sure to be work to be done. Thought ALWAYS preceeds manifestation. It is a universal law. Everything physical is first in the mind.
10. LOVE
Do not give love, BE love. When you are love your eyes only see love. When you are love, you forgive before even injured becasue you feel that its love that is real, not error. When you are love you offer yourself easily and freely to others, you lift people up, you heal their wounds. Most people “give” love because they want to “receive” love. That is not love. That is an exchange. True love can only come when two whole people perceive the goodness and truth of the other. It is not love to be a half person and hope another half person will complete you. That is taking. Love is fullness expanding. Be love and everything that comes into your life will be loving.
