Living with Joy: Keys to Personal Power and Spiritual Transformation (Earth Life Series Book 1)

When you wake up, ask yourself what you could do today that would bring you joy and delight. Put a smile on your face, rather than focusing on how you are going to get through another day. Do not focus on the problems you have to handle.

One of the ways to receive more is to spend time appreciating what you have. Acknowledge even the simplest things — the flowers you see or smell, the heartwarming smile of a child, the food you eat — and you will soon find the Universe sending you even more good things, for gratitude is magnetic.

When you honor yourself and your feelings, others judgments and opinions cannot affect you.

As the perceptual process begins, a new idea or a new way of looking at things emerges, vague in form.

Every morning when you wake up you are literally being born anew and afresh. Every day there are new things on your mind, people to meet, things to do. As you wake up and start your day, you need not think of the past and remember mistakes; instead, focus upon the future and what you will create.

— then you must undergo changes in yourself. Because, if you have already reached the understanding, wisdom and awareness that are necessary to create these things, you would not need to do anything. You would already have what you want.

The relationships you have with others can only be as good as the relationships they have with themselves. If they do not know how to love themselves, that limits how much they can love you. No matter how hard you try, how many nice things you do, they cannot give you the love you seek. Forgiveness is the key to feeling good about how others treat

One way to increase your awareness of your higher purpose is to stop often throughout the day, such as when you finish one activity or interaction and before you start the next, and ask your soul, “What is my higher purpose now?”

Know that you are always being shown the next step; it is always something that comes to your mind as an obvious, simple, and joyful thing to do.

They often involve a major change in your perspective, a letting go of some major belief, or an opening to a higher understanding that changes your life.
