What Attitude That Is Most Missing For You To Succeed?

 I got an email from a reader today, one of many such emails:
“Hi Sophie, I listened to your video but I didn’t get the answer or find solution to my struggles in life! I am wondering, yes as you said, why I am not transformed in-spite of learning so many methods from attending seminars and reading books! I came from a broken family I tried to change my life but sometimes my life was up but mostly down!

Financially I struggle, bankrupt and thinking to end my life. . . But when I hear your story, I did not and I am now almost 5 years searching for answers? I have read the Bible many times from cover to end and everyday, I received emails trying to sell me self-improvement books but I am fed up, nothing works! I would appreciate if you can help me!”
So what can you answer to someone who has been struggling and considering suicide a viable alternative?

One major distinction I need to teach to all my readers, students, a distinction that if you don’t learn it, you’ll miss everything.

The distinction is called: Where are you listening from?

The from is the operative word here. It is your base attitude consistent with your “grounds of being”.

We each are embedded in a paradigm. The insides and the walls of our paradigm are built from our belief system. Your paradigm has everything that you need to stay the same, and nothing to be more successful that you are, happier than you are, thinner, richer, more entertaining, more attractive than you are.

Your current life is exactly what’s possible inside your current paradigm.

When you look at someone who has what you crave, you can be 100% sure that they live in a different paradigm with beliefs that can’t be found in yours.

Raising your vibration happens through doing things

Raising your vibration happens through doing things that you wouldn’t do without the intention to raise your vibration.
Coaching is making you do what you need to do, but don’t want to, that will get you what you desire.

Often any deviation from the normal, the accepted, the habitual, the regular, the easy, the socially acceptable is all you need to open up and allow you to glimpse at dormant capacities. Or alternatively see your need for capacities that you don’t have but could start to desire.

Updated: Soul Correction: Sharing The Light, Sharing the Flame

Soul Correction: Sharing the light.

A single candle, though its light is weak, banishes darkness. But it needs to be lit.

When you hide your light under a bushel basket so no one can see it: you are doing no one a service, including yourself.

Your job is to share your light, and trust that your single light will light up the life of all you touch.

The Heaven on Earth or HOE

If you were a garden, we could be pretty sure that it would be full of weeds… and all your good qualities, your good aspirations would be threatened by the weeds that want to take over your garden.

Negativity, bad habits, bad thoughts, character flaws… all threaten to drown out what’s good about you.

Mastery: From aimless, directionless to fulfilling life

Summary: In our hurry to be hip, to know more, to get some semblance of control over our lives we have lost what gives life meaning and texture, the context that is timeless and true: the pursuit of mastery. We have now whole generations of flunkies…

In the olden days people had the following choices in life:

become a master of some trade
become a master of some knowledge
become a flunky

Updated: The attitudes of Poverty vs. Affluence… Can you learn the right attitudes?

This article slipped by a lot of people. And today where I keep talking about the small actions that cause and then cement your epigenetic shift, this article is more important than it was a year ago when I first wrote it. Onto the article…
… in Neal Stephenson’s novel ‘Reamde’ he remarks that affluent parts of all cities are similar, but poor parts of cities are miserable in their own way.
What causes success, and what causes failure? Or we could say, what causes affluence, and what perpetuates poverty?

It’s habits. It’s the thing you do (or not do), day in and day out. The things you take care of and the things you don’t.

But if you look, a habit you see are only the tip of the iceberg… maintaining it, keeping it permanently, unchangeably in place.

For the “other” you are the enemy

Do you think this is a game?!

In the past five months I have taken all my senses, all my capacities inward, and to sensing and feeling.

The brain plasticity allows you to re-organize what you use to get valid information about your world, and I moved all my available capacities to inner and outer sensation.

You, on the other hand, have moved all your available capacities to the mind, where it intermingles with untruth… but this article is not about that.

Anyway, this morning I was paying attention to the dynamic between the world and me… to the attitudes and feelings of critters around, small and big, and I saw something that shook me up a bit.

How You Do Anything Is How You Do Everything or The Holographic Nature of You

How You Do Anything Is How You Do Everything

As usual, I didn’t invent this sentence, but as far as I can see it is true, every single time.

People say: I did that… but I don’t normally do that. I never do this… but of course, they do. Cheat, lie, go back on their word, no show up, not call, keep you waiting, gossip about you… you know the stuff that people do. People like you.

Let me give you a few examples, and how it can be your best “coach” if you have the desire to improve your life, raise your vibration, feel better, etc. Because how you feel about yourself is what gives you the quality of your life.

If you love yourself, you love your life. If you look in the mirror and you see a jolly good fellow, or a winner, or a courageous broad, you love yourself and you love your life.
