-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. Article: Are You Squatting To Rise?
So… it’s now January 15th – how are you doing on your New Year’s Resolutions…?
If not so great, I have a question for you: How bad are you going to have to feel to motivate you…?
Isn’t
that the way to get your butt in gear - creating a sense of pain or discontent or something equally unpleasant in order to get you moving in the right direction…?
Yeah – I don’t care for that method either. In the words of the immortal Christopher Villa:
“You’ve heard of ‘No pain – no gain’..? Well, I say, ‘No pain = NO PAIN!’”
I prefer to avoid pain, myself. Now, I understand where this theory comes from, and I know that a lot of people have used it to move them to great achievement. But while it may work to get some folks in gear, it seems to me that it adds an unnecessary experience of discomfort to life. And, call me crazy (many have…), but I’m just plain opposed to that.
And pain
is hardly a universal motivator, given that some people have a remarkable tolerance for pain.
If your goal is losing weight, how uncomfortable does the weight need to be before you really get on board with a healthier diet and better workout routine? I’ve seen plenty of folks who are clearly suffering as a result of their weight, but still can’t get motivated to turn it around. It’s hard to say to them, “Well, you just aren’t feeling enough pain – maybe you should try to be more upset about your situation.”
And even if they take action based on the pain, working out is highly unlikely to be a positive experience – it is a disagreeable task based on a perceived need. Yuck – that’s not much fun.
And if
you want more of anything, such as money, does making yourself feel ungrateful for what you already have lead to having more for which to feel grateful? Based on what we know about the Law of Attraction, that certainly doesn’t make sense.
But there are still plenty of folks saying that if you aren’t taking the action required to get the results you want, then you should fabricate a sense of discontent to motivate yourself.
This reminds me of a phrase from the great motivator Zig Ziglar: “Squatting to rise.” It’s the idea of going down as part of the process to go up – which seems rather counterproductive.
See – what we want is to feel good. The things we wish to achieve – we want them because we expect to
feel good in some way when we achieve them. Using discontent or pain to motivate us is like saying, “Hmm… I’d like to feel better than I do right now, but I don’t feel motivated enough to make change, so I’m going to make myself worse first.”
Kind of like a high jumper digging a pit in front of the bar, because when he sees the bar that much higher from the lower vantage point, he’ll be more motivated to jump that much higher.
Of course – he’ll have higher to jump.
This sort of assumes that the process of jumping (or whatever the required action might be) is disagreeable, and to overcome that obstacle the present situation needs to appear more unpleasant.
But what if the jumper is just motivated
by seeing how high he can jump..? By the excitement of seeing what new heights he can reach…? (Actually, anyone in this sport who doesn’t think this way might want to consider another line of work…)
Yup – I’m in favor of using joy to motivate us. Because if the achievement doesn’t inspire joy, then why do you really want it?
Motivation comes when the perceived benefit of doing something outweighs the perceived cost. So, rather than waiting for the pain of not taking action to be greater than the pain of taking action, what if we cleared the pain, and made the joy of taking action more enticing than the comfort of not taking action…? In fact, if you need to feel pain to get motivated, there is probably something
there that you’d be better off clearing anyway, rather than trying to overcome it.
Whether the required action is working out, or making more calls, or jumping higher, the degree of pain is a perception. Some people actually enjoy these things – and that is what makes them more successful in those areas. So, start clearing your resistance to these things. And if the things you need to do in your field are impossibly painful, then the ladder of success you are trying to climb might well be leaning against the wrong wall, to use the popular clich?.
What do you want? Are you moving towards it? Get more excited about it. Forget about discontent and pain – create joy and excitement. See how good you
can possibly feel, and before you know it you will find yourself already in action. Something slowing you down? Clear it. Then go back to feeling good, letting it get better and better.
You deserve so much. Let yourself joyfully experience it.

HOW TO MAKE DONATIONS FOR FR.EE
There are some sites where you can simply click a link, and a sponsor will make a donation on your behalf – it is a simple way to support some
worthy causes. For a couple of years now, I’ve had these sites as my homepage, so that I click first thing each day. They also have some cool products, like the “Cultivate Peace” wristband I wear (you can see it in the YouTube video – the light blue wristband), which provide an opportunity for additional contribution. I’ve been told the Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals.
It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on the purple box "fund food for animals" for free. Again, this doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number
of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.
Here's the web site! Click on the site below and then click on the purple box. Then please also click on the links for the other charitable organizations. And pass it along to people you know. http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com
Thank you!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IV. Tapping Transcription: It’s Not Happening Fast Enough
(Side of the Hand)
Even though it’s not happening fast enough, I deeply and completely love and accept myself, Even though it’s not happening fast enough, I deeply and completely love and forgive myself, Even though it’s not happening fast enough, I’ve been on these teleclasses for awhile, And as far as I’m concerned, I shoulda been cleared after the first one, I shoulda gotten on one teleclass, And won the Lottery the next day, Why aren’t I clearing faster, How much baggage can I really have? How much resistance can I really have, Why aren’t I clear yet? Why is there still some resistance, And maybe it’s not that it’s simply resistance that needs to be cleared, Because if that was the case, Wouldn’t I be cleared
by now, And wouldn’t the abundance be showing up, So I’m losing faith, And if it really is about clearing abundance, Then the fact that the abundance isn’t showing up, As quickly as I’d like, Might mean something really bad about me, That I have so much resistance, And that I feel badly about that, That’s why I’m getting so impatient, It’s too hard, And the fact is, I’ve been living most of my life, Without more abundance, Maybe it’s possible, I can relax a little, And maybe relaxing a little, Is the one thing I need to do, If I can let go of my impatience, Maybe that’s the one thing blocking my abundance, The more I’m aware it’s not showing up, The more I attract the
not showing up, So I choose to release that, I choose to be clear, And be one step closer to Source, And it may be a H-U-G-E step, It may even be the one step, And I won’t know, Until the abundance starts showing up, And I choose to be open to that happening, In God’s time, And even though I’m so impatient, I deeply and completely, Love and forgive and accept myself, And everyone else, Who I’m blaming for this block of abundance.

Closing Quotation Several today, actually. I got this from my Dad, and had to pass it on… :)
I am writing to you to wish you Peace. Smile, Sing, dance and most importantly imagine. Because:
Imagination is more important than Knowledge. Albert Einstein
Imagination is the beginning of creation. George Bernard Shaw
Everything you can imagine is real. Pablo Picasso
To know is nothing at all; to imagine is everything. Anatole France
We need men who can dream of things that never were. John F. Kennedy
I have a dream... Martin L. King
Imagine all the people… John Lennon
Imagine
the Aircraft carriers are used as floating hospital. Imagine the Bombers carrying water to turn off fire rather than start a new fire. Imagine super sonic fighter jets are transferring critically ill patients to hospitals. Imagine paying 60% less tax because governments require zero dollars for war spending and citizens have more money to enjoy more of life. Imagine the very first world holiday, people of the world are having one more day off to celebrate Global Peace Day. Imagine Media is promoting LOVE instead of FEAR. Imagine a day that our headlines read: This month construction forces opened 80 new schools in Afghanistan, built 450 new homes in Iraq, vaccinated 10,000 people in Africa and 7600 orphans were adopted by loving parents
all over the world.
Imagine this is the very "Magical email that transformed the whole world". Imagine this email dancing from one mail box to another, singing the melody of peace and bringing smile to faces and healing the deafest ears.

VI. Reminder Item
Perhaps you've read my article called Manifestation 101, which SelfGrowth.com also distributed. The manifestation steps are:
1. Create It 2. Clear It 3. Live It 4. Let Go (& Let God) 5. Get Movin’ (aka Take Likely Action)
To go along with that, here is a collection of affirmations from abundance experts John Randolph Price and Catherine Ponder. I recommend you print these out and post them where you will read them each morning.
Nothing is too good to be true. Nothing is too wonderful to happen. Nothing is too good to last.
My conscious awareness of the Divine Presence as my supply is my supply. I am now consciously aware of the indwelling fountain of overflowing abundance. Therefore, I AM abundant supply. My consciousness is the very energy of money.
I AM the Spirit of Infinite Plenty. I am boundless abundance, and with love in my heart, I let the universal riches stream forth into perfect manifestation.
What is expressed in love must be returned in full measure. Therefore, wave after wave of visible money supply flows to me now. I am wonderfully rich in consciousness, and I am bountifully supplied with money.
I now realize my plan for abundant living.
There is always an abundance of money, and I now let it come to me. I am open to receive.
I cannot be limited, for I am the Shining Sun of Supply, and God’s wealth fills my world.
I am receiving. I am receiving now. I am receiving all the wealth that the universe has for me now.
I do not depend on persons or conditions for my good. God is the source of my supply and God provides his own amazing channels of good to me now.
All that is mine by divine right now comes to me speedily, richly, freely and easily. I am receiving now.
It is finished. It is done. I give thanks that I have received, and that my good appears in rich appropriate form under divine timing.
I expect Success!!!
