What about your approach to your own life? This blog looks at how our approach to life impacts on global, national, community and personal changes.
When someone close to us behaves badly—be it letting us down, taking advantage, verbally attacking us … it presents a painful challenge. It’s easier to let go of disappointing people if they’re not close. But family? How do you remain compassionate? How do you remain emotionally detached? Ease your pain by looking at a bad behaviour from the perspective of a soul’s journey.
You know those head-scratching times when you’re asking yourself: What makes me happy? What does this dream mean? Why am I reacting this way? And the only answer you get is ‘I don’t know’…

The evidence is overwhelming that we’re becoming more powerful in our ability to manifest. The progression from thought to concrete reality is more instantaneous than ever before. If we don’t work hard to focus those around us on the positive, then the negative attitudes will take hold, and more negativity will be manifested. We need to restore the balance.

One has many ‘opportunities’ that come knocking, how do you discriminate as when to take them and when not?
My tendency is to think carefully most of the time (evaluate) before accepting or going with it. Till now, I have trusted this thinking process. Do you think I should just trial saying ‘’Yes” for the next while and see what results and over-ride the thinking process?
I have recently realised how much I have slipped in my life and allowed myself to withdraw and stagnate. I’ve lost a lot of confidence. I need to know how to shift the frequencies around me so that I can begin to attract a better life. What are simple things I can do to shift the energy field around me?
