9 Tips to Shift your Program

One view is all you do or not is part of a Matrix program.  Everything you think, every emotion you feel is a download, shaping your life until the moment you begin making this process conscious. 

The good news is, the more you grow conscious, the more receptive you are and more intuitively you shift focus to what resonates with your core energy.  Review these 9 tips to shift your program:

1. Acknowledge what you do not want

Awareness of unhappiness is a pointer. When things do not seem to be working, this is merely perception. You cannot think your way into happiness. You must feel the way. Many people think they are lost until growing aware of what evokes joy, allow feelings to guide them to what self doesn't see. The ego nurtures self-centred desires. The soul has another sense of happiness.  Be open to this. Surrender to the universe.  As John Lennon echoes, "Life is what happens when you are making other plans." Everyone is not destined for a linear path.

2. What do you wish to create?

Visions can be tangible and intangible.  Humility expands consciousness which opens ourselves to the greater universe.  From here, everything starts flowing. This is an opportunity to add detail to the cloud above the cartoon you see as your expanding life.  Expectations arise in the ego.  Humility is the willingness to allow Spirit to be a reliable guide.

3. Clarify your Why

Why do you want to make this dream part of your reality? Does it signify Freedom? Happiness? Security? Love? Wholeness? Having a compelling reason for a dream catapults you into action.  The power of intention is huge. Jot down why you feel drawn to this dream you have set as your goal. Write down all reasons, regardless of whether you consider them major or insignificant. Putting words down is powerful.

4. Identify what you need to make this happen

Brainstorming and reflection allow you to pinpoint what you need to allow this new dimension of your reality.  Allowing is the key to living the dream. Set your sights at any level.  If you were told that you need money to make money, read about people like Brian Tracy who started with nothing and now has millions of dollars.  Acknowledge ego-driven ambition and heart-centred focus each shape what unfolds in your experience. Feel the difference of going with and against the current of the Soul.

5. Make obstacles conscious

You can’t solve a problem you don’t know exists or are not willing to acknowledge. This implies you must also identify the beliefs, thoughts, and mis-perceptions that do not support your dream.  This is what really stands in you way. Whenever you speak about your dream and get flack, encounter fear reflected through others, this is all a projection of your own self-limiting conditioning.

 6. Eliminate negativity

When you are fully conscious of your self-sabotage programming and your attitudes, work on correcting your negative perception.  You cannot achieve something if your thought undermine it.  You must identify, abate, and replace limiting beliefs to see positive changes in your life and financial situation.  

7. Use positive Affirmations

Just like your subconscious mind learned to accept negative perspectives about money, what is possible or out of reach. you can teach it new, positive affirmations and, gradually, it will accept them as true. Practice positive affirmations. Know everything is unfolding perfectly.  Remind yourself of your intention and progress. Repeat : “I love and accept myself and deserve the best,” and “I am living the dream.”  Establish a timeline.  Be firm.  Negativity stops here.

8. Who could help you on your quest?

Read about people who have realized dreams like yours and lost them. What do you gain from their insights? Dale Beaumont  says,“You will be the same person in five years as you are today except for the people you meet and the books you read.” He discovered what successful people do and followed their lead, aiming for the same results in business.  Jack Canfield also advises approaching people who inspire you. Take steps to connect, talk to people who are teachers, mentors and masters who inspire you on the path.  Do whatever you are guided to do to balance communication within, to foster confidence, build up a charge, energize yourself. Be a magnet for truth in all forms. 

9. How does it feel?

Specify how it feels to be living your dream in this present moment.  Being here is imperative to allowing this to enter your life experience.  The feeling focus helps solidify your new reality.  Envision rewards for wise decisions. It also helps you recognize emotions you have to feeling whole and complete. Be completely receptive.  Imagine aspects of this dream as part of a new life on a new timeline.  For this to happen, you must be honest about which aspects of your current reality you must detach from to make from for the new vision to replace it.  Feel a new reality take root. Adding detail to this vision gives the new roots strength.

All you need is revealed

Brace yourself: what you need is already accessible.   A trail of synchronicities points to this.  You cannot gain or lose what matters but you can change your perception or focus of attention.   Notice what happens as you step back and simply observe what is unfolding without judging.  Notice how resistance to change subsides. Do you worry or exist is a state knowing all is well?

As you begin to recognize the 'quest' within the question has different purposes and lessons, the game of life rises to a whole new level.  You can move through beliefs and perceived problems,  brainstorm possible causes, create affirmations, and new patterns.  Feel the roadmap to peace.

In essence, this tells you awakening is not the same for everyone.  What you think you want at different stages of life evolves.  Underneath every desire and quest, who you are is constant.  What stands out as a current priority is impermanent.  Each experience you choose serves you and also reveals what is permanent.  Everything is here but you may forget how to see.  Just ask.

"Act with a spirit of detachment, being equal to success and failure.  Such evenness of mind is called yoga."  -Bhagavad Gita

Speak affirmatively & strengthen from within

To raise your awareness about how you speak and when has the potential to transform your life.  You may be unaware how you create your mindset.  What are you waiting for? How would you like to change? Listen to what you say.  You will be amazed at the nature of what you applaud and when you reprimand.  Many people are unaware of their own self-criticism and the choice to stop doing it.

Consider how you react to your experiences.  If you walk into a wall or run your hand into a doorknob in passing, what kinds of words do you use to describe yourself?  If you forget to run an errand or fail at your new venture, are you positive or negative? Do you feel angry and punish yourself or, do you immediately forgive yourself? All you say is shaping your character.

Think about when you apply for a promotion or other opportunities.  If the result is not in your favor, do you assume you did something wrong or, aren't good enough? Do you imagine the worst case scenario? Or, do you recognize you're simply meant for other more suitable opportunities? Whatever your attitude, however your life vision arises, you either pump up or deflate your ego.

Reflect on the progression of your relationships.  Do you constantly sense mistakes, insecurity, inadequacy and lack, or, are you the type of person who recognizes value and blessings to be found and retained from each experience? Speak positively about everyone and see what happens.

If you sincerely desire to realize dreams, then you must evolve to chose words that reinforce your intentions.  The words you utter reinforce images you create on the inside.  They build up and strengthen your confidence or, they slowly chip away at your self worth and purpose until you doubt yourself.  No matter what stage you're at, you're capable of using more positive words that enable you to feel good. tell yourself you are beautiful, intelligent, talented and more.  Declare good things about yourself and your life.  Express gratitude.  Words you use have the power to transform.

"Look well into thyself; there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look there." -Marcus Antoninus
