remember, <\/span><span style=\"color: navy\">what you resist persists.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: navy\">When you transform, you no longer are the same person or do the same things you used to do in the same way.\u00a0 It is like when water turns to ice.\u00a0 It is no longer water, it is a completely different substance.\u00a0 For me, my relationships started to drastically transform when I did.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: navy\">Here is some great information from Ariel &amp; Shya Kanes\u2019 new book <span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><strong>&#8220;<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.matchmadeinheavenbook.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">A Match Made in Heaven<\/span><\/a>.<\/em>&#8220;<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000\">\u201cKindness begins with you \u2013 DON\u2019T JUDGE YOURSELF FOR JUDGING YOURSELF.\u00a0 In order to be kinder to yourself and others, you first have to pay attention to the way you currently behave.\u00a0 It starts by noticing when you\u2019re harsh and when you use derogatory terms or an abrasive tone.\u00a0 When you notice this behavior and don\u2019t judge yourself for doing it, then the behavior will dwindle away on its own (Third Principle).\u00a0 If however, you criticize yourself for what you see, then you\u2019re resisting your behavior.\u00a0 That will only mean that despite your best intentions, you won\u2019t be able to stop.\u00a0 You\u2019ll be trapped in a cycle of behaving \u201cbadly,\u201d then feeling \u201cbadly\u201d and then behaving \u201cbadly\u201d all over again.\u00a0 This is the First Principle of Instantaneous Transformation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000\">When you are harsh with yourself for being harsh, it simply reinforces the behavior.\u00a0 In other words, what you resist persists, grows stronger and dominates your life. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000\">NOTICING WHEN YOU\u2019RE ALREADY UPSET: You may think that certain circumstances are inherently upsetting or frustrating, that they make you upset and cause you to respond in an abrasive manner.\u00a0 But if you take a look, you\u2019ll notice that when you react strongly to something, <em>oftentimes you were already upse<\/em>t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000\">DON\u2019T BLAME THE TRIGGER: Upsets can range from a low-level grumble to an explosion.\u00a0 It\u2019s easy to blame your partner, friend or circumstance or even yourself for doing something \u201cwrong\u201d when in fact you are simply pre-charged.\u00a0 For example, if you had a \u201cbad day\u201d at work or a frustrating day with your kids, when you get together with your spouse, it\u2019s far easier to snap at him or her as if your partner is the cause of your upset. Blaming something outside of yourself perpetuates recurring upsets.\u00a0 If you simply bring awareness to how it is that you function, without judging yourself for what you see, or blaming something or someone for causing them, these recurring upsets will lose their hold over you and with practice, you well be free of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: navy\">This wonderful book is full of valuable information that will transform your life.\u00a0 Take the appropriate action as often as is needed and go the distance.\u00a0 Remember, anything is possible!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: navy\">Have a miraculous day!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: navy\">smiles,<br \/>\n\ud83d\ude42 Lee<br \/>\n<em>The MEGA Coach<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/haveamagnificentday\/files\/2013\/09\/transform-yourself.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7489\" alt=\"transform yourself\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/85\/2013\/09\/transform-yourself-300x192.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"192\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To have wonderful relationships you must be good to yourself and you will then be good to others.\u00a0 You treat others only as well as you treat yourself.
