My intention for this life

My ultimate goal of my life is to come to a place where I love reality, enjoy the present, accept everyone and everything for who and what they are.

Most importantly to just love.   To be happy and loving.

The question is how do I get to this place and how do I get back when I have strayed of track?
This blog serves as a reminder.

The only thing I can do is continue with this intent, continue to observe myself, to contemplate, to focus on my own growth, to help others grow, and most importantly to come to love as soon as it is remembered.

I have noticed that I don't get as far off track of this as I used to.  I also come back to it much quicker each time and every time I come back to it, its deeper and clearer.

Although I accept that life will never be perfect, it is my intent to live in this loving place in life as much as possible.

I want to express love, Expect Miracles and Magic, and live in Joy and Gratitude, enjoying my life.

Get Happy

I just listened to a short video about being happy, which I included below.

Its so simple but so powerful.  The answer to everything is to get happy.  Do I go to the gym today?  Yes or No, which one will make me happy.  Do I go  to class today?  Yes or No, which one will make me happy.

It's not about what others think you should do or what you feel like doing.  You do what makes you happy.  Should I stay in this job?  Yes or No, which one will make me happy.

Not what is easy or hard.  But what makes you happy.  It's such a simple way to maneuver through life.

Just listening to the Video made me feel better, inspired and empowered.  Now contemplating the ideas and how it works in my life makes me feel even more wonderful.

I think some singing and dancing is long over do!

The Greatest Manifestation Principle in the World Book Review. Greatest..... Really?

Is it really The Greatest Manifestation Principle in the World?

I just finished reading the book, The Greatest Manifestation Principle in the World by Carnelian Sage and when I first started reading the book I was going to throw it away.

The first two and half chapters of the book are negative and pretty much do nothing but attack the some of the teachings of the Law of Attraction.

I have to agree that the Law of Attraction is just a very basic level of metaphysics and spirituality. However, most people who are first introduced to the movie, The Secret or any other principles of the law of attraction usually have never considered the fact that they can even choose the thoughts they think.

I think the current ideas of law of attraction and even the movie, The Secret, definitely has its place. I may not completely agree with everything but I can say I LOVE what it is doing. These things are the start of people becoming conscious of their thoughts and focusing on personal and spiritual growth, this alone is worth ANY of the slight disagreements some may have with it.

That being said I am so glad I was at the gym so and decided to continue reading the book Carnelian Sage wrote, The greatest manifestation principle in the world, because what unfolded after the first two chapters was absolutely perfect.

I really wish she would have removed the negative from the book and just spoke of the principle, however I do feel the rest of the book is completely worth getting through the first two chapters or even skipping them.

I 100% agree with the principle Carnelian speaks of in her book. She includes a very powerful exercise which seems too simple, to have any result at all. Yet I tried it, all the while with my ego screaming, "Why bother, nothing ever works for you." But I did the exercise anyways and I was grateful I did. The immediate impact this exercise is worth the entire book alone.

I highly recommend the book, just skip the first two chapters. I won't give away her secrets but for those who know me, I will give you a hint. It's what I tend to speak about as my truth or true self. :o) Carnelian just makes it so direct and simple.

Enjoy!

Think like God thinks.

With God all things are possible.

This is what saves me. This is what pulls me out of ego, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. But what does this really mean.

Well if Anything is possible, then thinking like God thinks would mean there are no reasons why life can't be exactly as we want it. But most of the time it isn't....... So now what?

This is because we don't and I certainly don't think like GOD thinks. I have to remind myself constantly that all things are possible. And still do I truly believe it?

I think that if we thought like God thought every second of every day, we would be happy, anything WOULD be possible, and life would be amazing, amusing, and fun.

If only there was a way to remember this every few seconds. Think like God thinks.

I know if I did I would have more patience while driving. I would smile more. I would have more patience with everyone in my life. I wouldn't feel so frustrated when people made decisions that I disagreed with. I wouldn't feel like I NEEDED to do anything. I would watch everything in life with amazement. I would love without wanting anything from anyone. I wouldn't need anyone or anything to be different than they already are.

Is this too tall of an order to ask of a person living in this physical world playing the game of Life?

Is it possible to think like God thinks? Would it take years of meditating, discipline and practice in order to even come close to living in this manner.

Am I setting myself up to fail by even considering this being possible? Is it possible for you? Is it possible for others?

At times just saying, "Anything is Possible" can completely change my thinking, but at other times I am filled with nothing more than doubt. To think like God thinks would be an absence of all doubt.

Maybe its about finding something powerful enough that works for each one of us individually. I have heard many religious people use the phrase "What would Jesus do?" Which may work for them.

I wonder what would work for me. What do you think would work for you?

"What would love do?", "What would source do?", "What would God do?", "What would Spirit do?".

It would have to be powerful enough to really transform your thoughts in the midst of the dramatic ego controlling your thoughts and actions.

All these words mean the same thing to me (Love, God, Source, Spirit), yet depending on how they are used each one carries a different power.

It would be an accomplishment if I even succeeded at remembering this a few times a day, let alone all day.

Maybe I could actually make this a part of my life and not just another concept I would "like" to adapt but never really come to light.

Instead of focusing on "trying" to make this a part of my life, maybe a better intention is to remind others that, "With God all things are possible, and what would God do" with whatever circumstances they are facing.

It's another practical way to go beyond the ego and come from the place inside us that is Spirit, to come from our hearts, reconnecting us with Source. I guess thats always the intention. I have noticed that when I am coming from my heart (Spirit), I am happy and joyful. When I am in a place that is dominated by ego is when I experience suffering and pain.

It is such a powerful practice to "Think like God thinks" and come from that place within us.

My intention is not only to remember to live from that place myself but to help others do the same.

If you receive a text, an email, a tweet, or even more blogs about this don't be surprised.

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

Who I really AM!

For the first time I finally experienced what I have known and believed for a while.

I have been on a spiritual path for years now and have educated myself quite well on the subjects of god, human existance, human behavior, sciences, and myself.

If you know me well you have heard me say "We are all one", "Everything happens for a reason", "Everything is Energy", "Where your mind goes energy flows", "We create our reality", etc....

I understood the concepts very well, I even looked to science to back it all up. I embarked on a journey seeking to be the best person I could be and to grow and improve myself as much as possible.

I had heard the concepts that we are whole and complete the way we are, and the answers are within not outside of us and I accepted them but some things can't be fully understood or percieved until you have felt them and experienced them.

Its like reading every book there is on swimming, but never getting in the water. You can explain how the body stays afloat, you can explain the science of the water moving and how it all works. But you don't REALLY know how to swim until you get into the water and SWIM.

I have finally come home. Home to who I am. I do not need to seek ANYTHING. I only need to live from that place inside me that is God/spirit/Love, whatever word can be attached to it.

To truly live in the present moment is to BE LOVE. To know this and to experience it is two COMPLETELY different things.

My life took a turn when I was blessed with this experience.

I again feel inclined to seek. But rather than seeking for answers, I am looking for ways to truly live what I have experienced. I felt who I really am, who we are really are, now living from that place on day to day basis when my life has momemtum and my ego has its roots is going to take some practice.

However its all coming from a different place within me now. I wish I had the words to describe it. Maybe I will. I intend to, as I understand this more and go deeper into it my intentions are to learn how to teach it so others may experience the joy of who they really are.

Immediately after my experience, I operated from such a place of peace where I forgot about myself. I was not disconnected from anyone or anything. I was present in every moment. If you asked me what I wanted to eat in 20 minutes, I didn't know, my immediate reaction was "I'll tell you when I feel hungry." It was beautiful.

I know what I am capable of now, I have felt exactly the way I want to live my entire life. It is so liberating, I had no desires, the moment was PERFECT and everything was so blissful. This lasted for days.

However the knowing that I am whole and complete, that happiness and bliss can be felt no matter what and knowing I am more than I ever imagined, has not left me. It is no longer a "good" concept, it is my truth.

Now living that for the rest of my life and helping others do the same is my intention.

I do not regret seeking outside myself for that is what brought me to the truth.

In summary my only intention is to live in the moment from the love that IS. My quest has taken a significant turn and to most it may not look different but it sure the heck feels different.

For those on a spiritual path I sincerely would love to connect with you. My skype is LOVEGROWTH and my email is LoveGrowth@gmail.com

And for those seeking guidance you may contact me as well.

Unfolding of Life

To expect magnificent but not know how you got there. To know it will get even better and know you couldn't dream up what the universe will produce is scary, exciting, illuminating, and anxious.

How do you explain a feeling of faith yet fear. A feeling of great but not quite there. It's like smelling the cookies bake, knowing they are there but also knowing it is not time to eat them just yet. When will they be ready? It could be five maybe ten..... Who knows, but THEY ARE MINE(I made them and now I can smell them)!

The flowers are blooming and they will be beautiful but OH what colors will they be?


Love and Light, Tiffany

How to live from the heart and be more passionate!

Well I wish at this point I could offer some straight forward solutions, but as I continue to seek this the only thing I can offer is what I have learned and how I plan to continue learning it.


Once I realized my biggest issue was opening my heart and living with passion, I thought the solution would be easy.

Just open your heart, right?

Just live with passion, right?

Not so easy, well at least for me! It hasn't been easy but that in no way has stopped my determination to completely live from love and with passion.

Ask you and you shall receive. It may not come today but I am a living example that it will come. Master your Mind, Master your life and do this with the healing power and healing touch of LOVE!

Well I asked and I received.

First, all my work with Peak Potentials has definitely had an impact on this area in my life. My first event with them, I was one of the people sitting in the chairs, extremely uncomfortable, and not talking to many people. The most recent event I was up and completely engaged the majority of the time, meeting lots of wonderful people. This is due to their style of teaching which is very transformative.

But it all definitely started drastically changing for me after Enlightened Warrior Camp. I went through some major challenges afterwards, that I would have never been able to get through without the inner strength that Warrior really showed me had.

I felt a huge expanse in myself and my love. I gave my mother a hug that was years over due, etc.. So the love part was getting easy, but the passion, well..........

Lets just say I definitely feel it! I am a very passionate person especially when it comes to things revolving myself (example being my growth, personal development, progressive, determined to reach my dreams, etc..)I just don't express any passion I do have towards others, which is a lot(but no ones knows it). In that area I still have a major block.

My boyfriend of three years who is the most non-expressive person I know has been able to look me in the eyes and tell me he loves me with every fiber of his being I was able to feel it and see it.

AND I STILL CAN'T DO THAT!!!!!!!!! It feels weird.

Yet, I see people live this way every single day!

But there is hope!!! And I am going to offer you as much as I can.

First there is a seminar that is geared towards this, which I have not gone yet so I have no reviews of it but after hearing the guy speak and his knowledge and the way he lives and expresses himself (So passionately but a very manly passion, its very attractive), I can say that I know this camp will change a lot of things for me, but what?... We'll just have to wait and see.

First I will offer you the information to his website and camp and then I will try to help immediately with the things I have learned so far.

Here is the main page: Warrior Sage. The camp I believe will be the most beneficial is the "Sex, Passion, and Enlightenment" Camp.

If anyone has already been, please share your experience with me.

Here are some things I have learned, that might help:

First becoming consciously aware of what part of you are you living from at all times, are your thoughts and actions coming from your head or your heart.
Another way of saying this is, "Do you have a fear based perception or a love based perception any given moment?"

I have an alert go off on my phone three times a day that asks me "What your you feeling? What are your thoughts?" This helps tremediously, first it puts me in check of whether I am in fear or love, and then it also helps with keeping my conscious thoughts very powerful (because I am working on retraining my subconscious mind)

Like I have mentioned before you can not be experiencing both fear and love, so in everything you do, you are doing it out of love or fear.

There is a great exercise to help expand your heart, which I also mentioned in my other blogs. Spend five minutes in the morning meditating on sending love to everyone. The secret is sending love, not only to people you love but people who you have difficulties with. The more anger or pain you feel for them, the more healing it is to be able to send them love. Start out where you are comfortable.

Another exercise is to pick one person who has hurt you. Take some time and journal about your experience of the pain, how they hurt you, what you would like to say to them, express EVERYTHING. Then after you have fully allowed your self to experience that, then you go through the experience but from their point of view. Why would they do that, was it them being malicious, were they doing the best they knew how, were they hurt and reacting to it, etc....

Now if you can and only if you can, forgive them and write what you forgive them for. It could be everything or it could be for only parts of it.

This is only for you and you do not ever have to let the other person know.

Remember when you hold on to pain some how we think we are punishing the other person but the only person who is hurting from you holding onto it, is you! Do yourself a favor and work at forgiving those that hurt you.

Even if it takes you hundreds of exercises to do so, it is worth it!

The funny thing that does start happening as you open your heart is you start seeing people differently. You see them clearly and for who they truly are. It's actually quite interesting.

The more you clear your "head" of pain, the clearer it is to see!

One thing I have definitely learned is that its a journey, you can't just pick up a book and now your transformed. But that book may give you one concept that leads you to the next and the next. Seminars and workshops do the same, they are more intense and are also quicker than a book, but it will heal and open up one part of you which will lead you to the next. You will always get out of a seminar, book, exercise, what you need to get it out of it. Its a journey but its a very beautiful experience!

"Life is Change, Growth is Optional, Choose Wisely!"

I will be sure to speak about my experience about the "Sex, Passion, and Enlightenment" Camp. For those who are considering that seminar, I will be attending the February dates in Los Angeles, and would love to share that experience with some of you!

Namaste,
Tiffany

Marianne Williamson Experience and her teachings with A Course in Miracles.

Marianne Williamson teaches from A Course In Miracles.

I was blessed with opportunity to see Marianne Williamson speak, again. She is one of the most passionate speakers I have experienced. She has a light and feel about her that is unexplainable. She lives every moment of her life trying to make a difference.

The course in miracles in a book that teaches love, you can also get Journey through the Workbook of A Course in Miracles
, which is what I recommend, and it has exercises to help you live from a place of love. The healing power of love is unmatchable.

This is what I got from her!

That I am divine glory. We are all divine glory. We are all spiritual energy.

I have the choice of where to live from love or fear. You are always living from one, either love or fear, NEVER BOTH.

The magic is choosing not to give your consciousness over to a fear based perception and letting your mind get mesmerized by your environment (which is unarguable mostly negative information). Remember the power of your mind?

"As the perceiver changes, the perceived is changed."

If you believe you are only a material being then your experience is subjected and only to all the material laws.
If you believe you are only a spiritual being, you live and are subjected to spiritual laws.


Marianne said "If we just spend five minutes a day in the morning meditating on sending love for others and honoring the love/spirit in them, in all people, those we like and those we don't like. Each and everyday we do this our days will unfold in an entirely different way."

Ultimately its learning to live from your heart instead of your head(conditioned mind) and Marianne teaches this through the course of miracles and through love.

I highly recommend her work.

You can see all her books on amazon here: Marianne Williamson

"Awareness and love is my religion."

Zrii Convention W/ Deepak Chopra

Well were do I start?

It was amazing. Words would not do it justice. ZRII

I got to spend a lot of time with Heidi, Finally got to meet my business partner and I just had a blast. Time flew by!!!

Hearing Deepak Chopra speak was amazing. There was a mini Chopra Center of Wellbeing, inside the Salt Palace where the convention was held.

The highlight of my day was meeting my team and just spending two days getting to know such awesome people.

I really don't want to reload all my photos on here right now, which i have tons of videos as well but if you are interested you can visit my myspace at Click Here

More to come about the Never Work Again, I do plan on going through each speaker one at a time or maybe two a day. I only have two more weeks of school and then I will be full on dedicated to my blogs and businesses!

Deepak Chopra Speaking at Zrii Convention


Mucho Love,

Life or Something Like It

I just watched a movie with my son called "Life or Something Like it", where Angelina Jolie plays a beautiful woman who has everything she thought she ever wanted but when a psychic tells her she is going to die in a week she starts to question everything in her life.

The whole lesson of the movie is to live everyday as if your last. Be yourself, enjoy everything!

I have been watching quite a bit of movies lately. I seen "Made of Honor" with Heather, it was cute. The lesson is pretty much to appreciate what you have and not to take people in your life for granted.

I saw "What Happens in Vegas" with Albert yesterday. It was a cute movie. A lot of relationship lessons and gender differences.

Today I saw "Speed Racer" with Joel. It was a cute movie as well. A movie about passion and following what you believe is right.

But this movie, "Life Or Something Like It" won't leave me. I keep thinking what would I be doing differently if I was living like it was my last day????

I know for darn sure I would not be working at the bar. I would probably spend more time with Albert and my son. And all the typical stuff people would say....

Like I mentioned I know for sure I would not be working where I work if I was truly living everyday to the fullest as if my last. Instead, I would be helping people and contributing to something positive in the world. But that leaves me with the question "What would I do?"

To be honest it would have to be something I could do from home or didn't take much time away because I want to have a baby with Albert, be a good partner to him and a wonderful parent to Joel and what kids Albert and I have. I would also need time to grow and be me.

But I know I wouldn't be happy unless I was contributing to mankind in a positive way. I am just not clear on how. And this is really plaging me. I am so inspired right now to make drastic changes for the positive, I just don't know what way to go. If I was given a path and knew at least my next step I would take it!!!



Now on to another subject. Copywriting. I am learning more and more from the book "Hypnotic Writing" I hope to start practicing the techniques soon. I am also very interested in any seminar or workshop about copywriting. If I come across anything I will definitely let everyone know.


A bizarre thing happened to me!!! My myspace page was deleted. They said I violated some rule. Which is weird because I hadn't signed into that specific account for a few weeks and hadn't posted anything really for almost two months!

Everything happens for a reason, for some reason I was meant to build a new myspace page! :o)

Happy Mothers Day to all the Mothers,

Tiffany

Catching up!

So it looks like life has taken me in several different directions. I am however still committed to learning internet marketing.

Right now I have been reading a book called "Hypnotic Writing", I forgot who its by and its in my car( I will add it on later). The more I learn about internet marketing the more I realize that copywriting is "one of the main ingredients"!!!!!

I love the style of Hypnotic Writing because his techniques are using "Love" as the drive to buy products, not Pain like the majority of marketers.

Also I think I am going to change the name of this blog, if I am able to! I will still be going over internet marketing but this blog has been about my growth in all areas of my life so far, so I would like to properly name it.

2008 is definitely going to be a year of dramatic growth for me and dramatic changes ( I feel it).

My relationships is like night and day from just six months ago. I never thought you could be more in love with someone after two years. I always thought that "in love" feeling starts fading. And I can only see it growing!!! The most amazing thing is he is growing right along side me. I am so lucky to have him, but I am starting to see how lucky we are to have each other. A partnership I am very grateful for!

I am sending my son to a skate camp for the summer! www.skatecamp.org

I am nervous because he is my baby, they will be jumping off cliffs, riding, skating into a lake, producing videos, learning how to start a fire in nature, producing a magazine and so much more. It is costing me, I have to work an entire week to pay for a week of him being there!!! But I know it will result in such growth and him coming into himself. I think he will be more self reliant and confident with himself afterwards. Plus I know he will have a blast.

I invest a lot into myself (which I believe is the best investment ANYONE can make), so investing into his growth is just as good! I am SOOOOO excited for him!

I have two big events this month alone!!! Next week is Never Work Again, with Peak Potentials. Then I have my Zrii convention the week after. Deepak Chopra will be there and I get to spend a few days with a team member and finally get to meet my business partner! My website is www.lifefree2008.com if you're curious about it.

I have one more year of school left!!! Then I will have my B.S. in Business Entrepreneurship!

But I think the biggest thing is through all of this, my life gets better and better. The more I work on myself, the better things get not only in my physical world but my "inner world". Meaning the way I deal with things and see things is just better! My moods are more stable and they slowly elevate as I grow.

I am coming into myself! I am starting to really express myself. I sing in front of my boyfriend now! I know that doesn't sound like much but me singing and dancing without alcohol is like asking a private shy person who is very reserved to go be the life of a party (without alcohol).

I guess in general I just feel more comfortable about being me. I don't take it as personal when people don't like me and I care less and less of what people think of me. Not feeling a need to pretend or hold back. It is a great feeling to just be me and stand by who I am, without all that other "haze" surrounding it.

Like I will always say I have so much more to learn and grow. The "positive" journey has just began! Thank you to all who is taking part of it! :o)

Namaste,
Tiffany

Relationships

I know this is supposed to be about internet marketing and I got way side tracked by all my seminars but I have some other stuff on my mind so I am just going to express myself here.

This weekend I have been attending a relationship seminar by PAX. You can visit them at Understand Men.

The first day of this seminar I was shocked about how much I learned. Today I became a little emotional and tense.

I have always known what a great guy I have and how fortunate I am to have him in my life. Today I realized that I don't fully express that to him so that he can experience my gratitude and admiration.

I was depressed by how naive I was, not only for him but all men.

I am so happy that I had a new friend with me, Crystal. Who quickly helped me clear the haze and mental anxiety of my past.

I understand why it is so hard to grow, when you are going through the initial eye opening experience, sometimes it can be very painful but as soon the "newness" sorts itself out, things become..... Even more beautiful than before. IT IS ALWAYS WORTH IT!

I don't have any other words to describe this, other than how grateful I am to not only be attending these workshops from PAX (Relationships w/men, although the results are always personal growth) and Peak Potentials (Personal growth in ALL areas) but also the people I meet in these workshops and the person I am becoming.

Because of the work these people do, everyday I am a better and better person for anyone and everyone in my life. I am excited to take part in helping others grow and become who they want to be.

I am also grateful for all those that I have met and yet to meet that are like minded (growth). Every single conversation is a growing and life changing experience!

I hope that whenever I am feeling under the weather, that I remember all these things. My beautiful son who impresses me daily. My absolutely amazing boyfriend who loves me for me and supports me in all that I do. For my friends and loved ones. For the ability to read, write, attend workshops, learn, and grow. As well as the ability to help others transform their lives..

And the journey has just begun!

Thank you for taking part of this,
Tiffany
