\"\"<\/a>The secret of\u00a0everything is to\u00a0love yourself as you are.\u00a0 When this is your mission within each moment, no matter what anyone says or shares with you – you understand it for what it is – information that is being delivered for your consideration. Not to derail you, or to take on as truth, but merely as information outside of your self.<\/p>\n

When you love yourself, you have a clear boundary around remembering the truth, ‘what other people think of you is none of your business’, your only job today and everyday is to love yourself and wash whatever comes your way with that loving energy which understands intuitively you are more than enough…. Just as you are.<\/p>\n

L.A. REID<\/a> talking about his mentoring for X Factor reflected\u00a0“I wish for myself that I will mentor them for who they are, not for what I wish them to be.”<\/p>\n

How often are we caught up in giving someone some advice on how they could be instead of embracing who they are? Instead of extending acceptance for who and what they do.<\/p>\n

The greatest power you have to change a situation or circumstance is in direct correlation to your level of accepting it exactly as it is without trying to change anything, offering a new vision of possibility for them to rise into after the total compassion for the total person.<\/p>\n

You can’t change what you haven’t realized so in giving the gift of acceptance, you enable to possibility of undefended vision, allowing the person to grow beyond what they were attached to.<\/p>\n

So thank you God for making you.\u00a0 Thank God for making them.<\/p>\n

Life is an ever unfolding gift when you are willing to remember everything begins when you stop the chaos of your thinking and stay present.<\/p>\n

It’s time\u00a0to realize there is nothing to change and then watch how everything happens.<\/p>\n

Today is the day.<\/p>\n

lots of Love,<\/p>\n

\u201cIt takes courage…to endure the sharp pains of self discovery rather than choose to take the dull pain of unconsciousness that would last the rest of our lives. Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.\u201d ~Marianne Williamson<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
