How I feel after my morning meditations.
Here's my offering to you this week.....
* Michael McCaskey workshop went well. I wasn't thrilled with my reading but, just having the techniques I learned from Lesly Kahn, I probably did better than I think I did.
And FYI, he is no longer with G. Charles Wright's office. He is now with Stiner/Block. Stiner/Block do Anger Management now. It was G. Charles Wright before.
He's cool peeps. Super chill.
* I know it's Super Bowl Sunday but, it's my next showwwwwwwww.
February 2nd ( Sunday) at 8pm.

Now on to the main attraction....
Once again....it's happening. I'm manifesting. Or at least I'm moving things around in my life, shaking shit up.
Facts:
* Jan. 5th I started a new meditation. I've been doing it EVERY morning.
* I have 3 candles. One for career/success, one for my heart/love, and the last is a Kwan Yin (goddess of healing and compassion) candle for self-love, self-acceptance, and emotional healing. I have been setting an intention for each candle every morning.
* I have been auditioning almost every day since (sometimes multiple auditions in a day), I received a marriage proposal (I'm not being funny about this at all), and I've been working out more and writing more.
** I know, a marriage proposal. It came out of nowhere (not really because I'm moving stuff around, remember?). From an ex...I'm not dating anyone exclusively right now. I didn't accept....yet. Maybe in the future but, I have shit I have to take care of first. And so does he. I may write about this in the future. Still, it's magical to know I have profound relationships in my life and that my heart is open.
Sometimes I manifest exactly what I want, but most of the times, there's just a lot of movement. I think that's one of my gifts. The ability to get 'unstuck' because I can get stuck a lot. Like debilitating stuck. But, now I can at least get shit moving. Constipation in any way sucks.
Manifesting is a blend of the non-physical and the physical.......faith and action.
From my experience, you gotta have both.
Here's how I think it works. I can actually guarantee it works. It does for me. Try it. And let me know.
Ok, here we go....you ready to learn some MAGIC??
* BELIEVE in MAGIC. If you don't have this, don't even bother reading on. This isn't for the cynics.
* Pick ONE thing you want to work on. Career, Love, Health, etc.... I know I got three candles but, I'm trying something different. So, just pick one.
* What kind of change do you want to see? How do you want to feel? Tony Robbins says, "Progress is Happiness". We as humans need to feel like we're making progress to feel good. We're going to simply focus on making progress.
* Maybe you just want to see changes around you. Maybe you have something very specific in mind. Whatever it is, break it down now. Into manageable PHYSICAL tasks. Something you can DO and TAKE ACTION on EVERY DAY . It's about CONSISTENCY. Why is consistency so important? When you do something consistently enough, you begin generating a momentum.....you gotta create momentum. Energetically, the momentum will eventually start carrying you. Think of anything that moves....first you gotta pick up speed. Just focus on picking up speed.
* Once you've figured out what you can do each day for a month, DO IT. The physical part of manifesting is your discipline. The discipline comes from your belief. Do you see how this all ties into each other? That's why BELIEVING is the #1 step.
* Once you've begun your discipline and practice, there will be signs. Look for them. Take them seriously. They may come as a stranger saying the right thing at the right time, you may read something randomly and get "a feeling", you may run into someone you haven't seen in a while, you may see your lucky numbers randomly appearing, you may get an unexpected check in the mail, you may get something for free at Whole Foods, and/or you just may get exactly what you asked for. Take these as signs that you're on The Path. Say thank you and keep it moving. This will help you stay in an attitude of gratitude (important component). The non-physical part is being able to recognize the unexplainable things that happen around us. As artists, we can be more sensitive to these things...this is actually our gift. To see what others cannot see and bring that to the physical. Don't become a cynic, please.
* And just receive. Receiving doesn't come easy for me. I like to give. There's power and control in giving. I give to whom I want, when I want. But, receiving...receiving is to surrender. You have to get vulnerable to receive. I feel this automatic urge to give back once somebody does something nice for me, says something nice to me. My roommate always reminds me, "Alex, it's not tit for tat. I'm doing this for you because I want to." I'm learning to ask for help and say thank you. Be willing to receive. It can be scary not knowing what's going to come your way. It's ok to be scared of the unknown...it's normal. Just be willing, and trust that you will be taken care of.
* Once you receive, you're going to feel fulfilled. You will naturally want to give then. That's just the Natural Law. Give.
* Enjoy finding your rhythm and dance with Life. 2014 is going to be a powerful year for manifesting. Find your groove. But in order to find it, you gotta start dancing. You may feel a little rusty at first. Normal. Keep dancing.
Some things to keep in mind while in the process:
* When I set out to do something, I give it a month, at the very least. Because it takes 21 days to start a new habit and 40 days to break one. 30 days seem to be the magic # for me.
* What's manifesting now is the product of my thoughts from the past. Sometimes I'm like, "Holy shit! I forgot I asked for this when I was 15!" Focus and think about what you want, not what you don't want. For example, just even start with observing your conversations with others. Are you talking about what you want or don't want? This was a game-changer for me....MIND BLOWN.
* If you want to start meditating, just know there's no 'right' way to do it. Just do it. Also, doesn't matter how long. Just do it. I'm having fun with mine right now. You can free write, you can pray, you can sing your favorite song, you can do a little dance, you can just sit there and look at a candle burning, etc.... For me, it's all about my commitment to carving out time for myself at the beginning of the day to set an intention. It's to say thank you for waking up another day and this is how I plan on participating in my life today.
* When things start to happen, it can happen extremely fast and at once. Go with the flow.
* When things start to happen, it can happen extremely slowly and gradually. Go with the flow.
* Also, sometimes when things start moving, shit may hit the fan first. For example, you're trying to get your finances in order and you get three parking tickets in a week. Things like this happen to me all the time. Listen, I know it may seem like, "What the f*ck? I'm trying to do this and you're effing up my game!", or "I can't f*cking win!" Don't get mad. Get glad. Because there's movement, change....that's life. RECEIVE the movement and don't get too attached to the specific situation. Get over the initial 'movement', whether you think it's good or bad. Without judgement, just go with the flow. It's all a part of the magic that's about to happen. Stay in it.
* And remember it's not about how big or small the action is, it's just about you taking that step. I promise you. It really does not matter how big or small....it's your perception of your action. If you think it's not enough, it's not. But, if you believe it's more than enough and you're doing your part, at least for the day, at least for now.....your job is done. You did it. Now, it's God/The Universe's turn.
* From my experience, whenever I do my part, which in hindsight always feels like 20-30%, God/The Universe takes care of the other 70-80%. It seems daunting at first, but, once I commit and start, unspeakable things happen. Some of my blog posts are about these magical moments.
Right now, I feel in alignment with my Soul's purpose. Why? Joseph Campbell teaches about Myths. There's the hero's journey. In a nut shell, the hero has a calling. Denies it. Accepts it. Receives help. Almost dies. Conquers. But, that's not where it ends. His job isn't done until he brings something back to the world.
I feel like I'm on my hero's journey whenever I write these blog posts. I feel like I go to places where most do not want to go (shit, I don't even want to go), I learn something, and bring it back. I go for me first but, I always end up wanting to bring something back. Whether it's right for you or not, here it is. This is my dragon I slay each week. And my job is done.
But, I hope it works for you. I hope it's right for you too. Because then we're connecting. So, if not like this, commit to finding your own way and begin manifesting. And then share that with others. Because I want to see a world where people are manifesting their wildest dreams. It's possible. Think about it, in our lifetime, we can say we had nothing to everything, technology wise. We literally went from only being able to use landlines to communicate, to now having access to the world and the ability to communicate with it in the palm of our hands.
Guys, we can create a world so magnificent that unicorns will finally walk amongst us. And it's gonna be like that M and M/Santa commercial...."He does exist. They do exist." I love that commercial.
"You may say I'm a dreamer but, I'm not the only one."
Have a THRIVING week, peeps.
with MAAAAAD LOVE,
x Alex
