			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Virginia Satyr, noted American author and pscyhotherapist, provided this response to  a 15-year-old girl&#8217;s question, &#8220;How can I prepare myself for a fulfilling life?&#8221; </em></strong></p>
<p>I am me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. There are people who have some parts like me but no one adds up exactly like me. Therefore, everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because I alone choose it. </p>
<p>I own everything about me &#8211; my body, including everything it does; my mind, including all my thoughts and ideas; my eyes, including the images of all they behold; my feelings, whatever they might be &#8211; anger, joy, frustration, love, disappointment, excitement; my mouth and all the words that come out of it &#8211; polite, sweet and rough, correct or incorrect; my voice, loud and soft; all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own all my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. </p>
<p>Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me in all my parts. I can love me and be friendly with me in all my parts; I can then make it possible for all of me to work in my best interests. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know. But as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for the solutions to the puzzles and for ways to find out more about me. However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time, is me. This is authentic and represents where I am at that moment in time. </p>
<p>When I review later how I looked and sounded, what I said and did, and how I thought and felt, some parts may turn out to be unfitting. I can discard that which is unfitting, keep that which proved fitting, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me and therefore I can engineer me. </p>
<p>I am me and I am okay. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>1. Demonstrate strong commitment. </b><br />
Be totally committed to your resolution. Use self-talk that announces your commitment to reach your objectives. Burn the bridges that are attached to doubt and hesitancy. Consider the words of Ella Wilcox: &#8220;There is no chance, no destiny, no fate that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.&#8221;</p>
<p><b>2. Act on your goal at the first opportunity.</b><br /> Do not procrastinate progress. Review your goals and determine what the initial or next step should be—then, take that step the first chance you get. </p>
<p><b>3. Practice daily. </b><br /> Reaching high levels of productivity is a skill that requires practice like any other developing skill. Let the realization of your goals be a daily activity. Remember that life happens day-by-day, event-by-event. Plan something today that gets you closer to your ideal. the size of the step is unimportant —the direction is all important.</p>
<p><b>4. Never let an exception occur.</b><br /> Exceptions are diversions and roadblocks. Don&#8217;t allow them unless and until your new habit is firmly rooted and is in your comfort zone. Diversions should be short and planned for—don&#8217;t lose sight of your objective.</p>
<hr />
William James , from his classic text: <i> The Principles of Psychology</i></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a wonderful feeling that comes from making the shift from the problems in life to &#8220;getting&#8221; that life is pretty good. This shift may take time, development and a high score on the Personal Foundation program, but you&#8217;ll get there! We promise!</p>
<p><strong>When a Person Comes from a Positive Place in Life</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>They still live in reality, but choose to live a better way.
</li>
<li>They create more positive things happening to them.
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What Happens Until One Makes This Shift</strong></p>
<ul>
<li> Nothing is good enough, especially oneself.</li>
<li> Problems are attracted, like bees to honey.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>THE 10 SHIFTS TO MAKE TO COME-FROM THIS PLACE</strong></p>
<p>❑ From not-enough to being enormously grateful, always.<br />
❑ From having problems to being a PFZ (problem-free zone)<br />
❑ From just getting by to having a healthy reserve of time, love, money and space.<br />
❑ From fighting, resisting, denying the circumstances, problems and disturbances in life to realizing that you had a lot to do with whatever is happening.<br />
❑ From doubting yourself to trusting your inklings/intuition.<br />
❑ From being complacent to making the choice to be fully alive.<br />
❑ From being passive, waiting, to always initiating, being at cause and creating your life.<br />
❑ From putting others first to becoming healthfully Selfish.<br />
❑ From talking or being &#8220;about&#8221; life, to being actively &#8220;for&#8221; life.<br />
❑ From thinking you&#8217;re alone to developing a relationship with God, Self, Spirit, Soul (or the term you wish).</p>

<p>I am your companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden.</p>
<p>I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command.</p>
<p>Half the things you do you might just as well turn over to me and I will do them—quickly and correctly.</p>
<p>I am easily managed—you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done and after a few lessons I will do it automatically.</p>
<p>I am the servant of all great people; and, alas, of all failures as well.</p>
<p>Those who are great, I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures.</p>
<p>I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a person.</p>
<p>You may run me for profit or run me for<br />
ruin—it makes no difference to me.</p>
<p>Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will<br />
place the world at your feet.</p>
<p>Be easy with me and I will destroy you. </p>
<p>Who am I? <em><strong>I am habit!</strong></em>
</div>
<hr />
Thanks to an unknown author for these wise words about habit.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In his book <em>The Power of Intention</em>, Dr. Wayne Dyer defines intention as a force in the universe that <em>allows</em> the act of creation to take place. The book explores intention, not as something you do, but as an energy you&#8217;re a part of. In addition, Dr. Dyer provides an intention guide with specific ways to apply the co-creating principles into your daily life.</p>
<div align="center">
Here is Powerful Intention #8:</p>
<p><strong>It is my intention to appreciate and express the genius that I am.</strong>
</div>
<p>Some important points about this intention: </p>
<ul>
<li> A universal characteristic of genius is humility. The genius has always attributed his insights to some higher influence. Genius is an expression  of the divine. </li>
<li>The process of appreciating  your genius involves trusting those inner flashes of creative insight that are worthy of expression. </li>
<li>Every person you interact with should feel the inner glow that comes for being appreciated, particularly for the ways in which they express their creativity. </li>
</ul>
<p>A few ways Dr. Dyer suggests for appreciating and expressing the genius that you are..</p>
<ul>
<li>Declare your intention to be a genius! </li>
<li>Remove resistance to actualizing your genius. </li>
<li>Simplify your life. Genius thrives in a contemplative environment. </li>
</ul>
<p>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In his book <em>The Power of Intention</em>, Dr. Wayne Dyer defines intention as a force in the universe that <em>allows</em> the act of creation to take place. The book explores intention, not as something you do, but as an energy you&#8217;re a part of.

<div align="center">
Here is Powerful Intention #5:</p>
<p><strong>It is my intention to live a stress-free, tranquil life.</strong>
</div>
<p>Some important points about this intention: </p>
<ul>
<li> Stress is familiar and tranquility is not, so our egos desire stress as it and its impacts are known </li>
<li>Here are some stress-inducing thoughts to be wary of:
<ul>
<li> It is more important to be right than to be happy.</li>
<li>Winning is the only thing. When you lose, you should be stressed.</li>
<li>Your reputation is more important than your relationship with your Source. </li>
<li>Success is measured in dollars and accumulations rather than in feeling happy and content.</li>
<li>Being superior to others is more important than being kind to others. </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Stay tuned in to this intention:  I want to feel good and I <b>intend</b> to feel good. </li>
</ul>
<p>A few ways Dr. Dyer suggests to create a stress-free tranquil life.</p>
<ul>
<li>Remember that your natural state is joy. </li>
<li>Remember that your thoughts, not the world, cause your stress. Pay attention to the following thoughts, which lead to stress: <i> I can&#8217;t, I&#8217;m too overworked, I worry, I&#8217;m afraid, I&#8217;m unworthy, It will never happen, I&#8217;m not smart enough, I&#8217;m too old (or too young!), </i>etc. Stop these thoughts as soon as you become aware of them. </li>
<li>Keep &#8220;Rule Number 6&#8243; in mind.  What is Rule Number 6? It&#8217;s easy, Don&#8217;t take yourself so goddam seriously. What are the other rules?  There aren&#8217;t any.  But remembering Rule #6 keeps your life in perspective! </li>
</ul>
