EIGHT LESSONS FOR PEACE, HAPPINESS AND LIFE
( I have had many requests for tutoring but am sorry to say I do not do this as I am still in the process of being tutored. ) Enjoy the Journey... Rod
Lesson 1
What I learned from myself is that you don’t need
any of it to be happy right now and that is probably the
million dollar insight of the day if not of a lifetime, to
realize that right now in this very moment as we live and
breath, as this conversation is taking place, as you are
sitting anywhere and I am here,
we are totally fine. We don’t need anything else to take
place for us to be happy. Happiness, at peace, and so
forth is fundamentally a choice.
Be happy now, choose what you’d like to
experience next, start working towards it. There you go.
Three steps, we’re done.
If the wife did leave or the husband and the
dog died and whatever else happens,
five years perspective will give you a different view of
this moment in reality. So if that five year’s perspective
is available to you five years from now, it’s available to
you right now
“Every adversity carries with it the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit.” Everything that’s
happening in my life is a creation, and I am the person
creating it.
“For any outcome you want there is a certain way
of thinking and acting that will get it for you.”
If you want something in life, you’ve got to consciously
and intentionally get control of your focusing and focus
on it.“ Focusing
your mind on what you want, taking action, looking at
other people who were creating whatever it was that I
wanted to create and, modeling what they were doing,
modeling their way of thinking and acting. No matter how it looks, in some way
or other you’re creating how you feel in every moment
and you’re creating all the situations and people that
you attract or are attracted to. Take 100% responsibility for your life because it
is so incredibly easy to point outside and say, “No, it’s
the president’s fault, it’s the economy’s fault, it’s the
terrorists’ fault, it’s my spouse’s fault, it’s my dog’s fault.
It’s you know, whoever’s fault.” That’s easy to do and
that’s not
reality. That’s the illusion.
“ How can I do this?” When you ask that,
it does something inside your head that generates all kinds
of ideas coming from inside of you. It may be attracting
things psychically to you for all I know. It certainly causes
you to notice things that you overhear or you walk to
a bookstore and the book jumps off the shelf into your
hands, or you know, something.
“What is an easy, effortless, and
healthful way to gain the thing or things I want?”
Let go of my ego and allow the universe, which of course has
the global perspective to say, “You know what, we can
surprise you and bring that to you in any number of
ways that you’ve never even imagined before, you just
have to let go of being concerned about it.” “Wow, universe, I’d
really like to have __________________. I’d really like to
experience this and live like a child of the father who created the universe, and it would be really
cool if
you could bring it by ___________ .”
Then it’s just fun, it’s placing my order with the universe, kind
of depositing it in through the mental bank so to speak
and then acting on my hunches and paying attention to
the opportunity and then acting on them when they show
up and being dazzled and surprised as it all unfolds. It’s
a wonderful process.
