Last week I got interrupted by a close friend. A host of insecurities and angry thoughts bubbled up...

Just wanted to share a very cool video on how a negative script that you might've been playing in your mind can be reversed...

During the first few weeks of starting this blog I would say to myself, "But I'm not an expert! All I know is I've tried a lot of things; some things worked and some things haven't. I just want to share what I know...is this enough?!" For days I would go on and on about this, firmly believing that I needed to answer this question before I could go on…

A few days ago I woke up remembering an unpleasant dream I just had. In the dream I was having an awful argument with one of the employees from a former business I used to own. Triggered by this dream, I was flooded with all the things I felt "went wrong" with this old business as I went about my day…

Sometimes when I feel upset and hopeless about my life (especially after having an argument with someone in my family or something I wanted to attract into my life hasn't happened yet) I watch this empowering, inspiring video and I immediately start to unhook myself from the negative thoughts of my Inner Critic...

Whatever your new project is that you want to start (or have already started) it has become important to you to stick with it.

Today I was frustrated with this concept of knowing I can write more articles than I've actually produced, so what's the hold up? I've been working on writing a review for The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity [10th Anniversary Edition], and found Cameron's blurb on taking risks and perfectionism…

I have a friend who wants to go back to school to get a Master's Degree in Finance. She told her business partner that she's thinking about getting a Master's Degree. He told her that it was essentially "A waste of time." And that "maybe you're trying to run away from the Real World.” --This entire scenario is destructive on many levels…

Limiting Belief
I’m a loser who quits everything I start.
Playback Affirmation
Even though my quitting this project (or career path) makes me feel like a loser who quits everything I start…I deeply and completely accept myself. And I am choosing to empower myself by letting go of roles and projects that limit me from expressing who I am and what I have to offer this World.

Limiting Belief
I’m afraid I will [fail at this, not be good at, be unqualified to work on] this new project.
Playback Affirmation
Even though I’m afraid of starting this [new project, book, artwork, assignment], I deeply and completely accept myself. And I am willing to plug into the Divine Creator and trust that I am guided in everything that I [create. . .write, paint, design, build, compose, manage].
