So for example, there was one trip that I went on with a group.  We came back.  We were at the airport, we came into the Atlantic City airport, and I happened to drive.  So I went to get the car, and the others were getting my suitcase.  So I come back, come over to the car.  They had their luggage but they said the airport people said that my luggage was lost.

So I get out of the car, and I go over and I go, “I guess I need new stuff.”

And the guy who’s standing there, the porter, says “Oh my God, I can’t believe your attitude. That’s incredible.”

And I just say, “Well I guess I just need new stuff.”

And he says, “You wouldn’t believe what I hear here every day when this kind of thing happens.”

And I said, “Yeah, I would believe it.” So I go into the baggage area.  I figured I had to fill out some forms or whatever, and I go around the corner and there is my bag. It just appeared.  And the baggage people said, “Oh my God, it wasn’t there a minute ago. Where did it come from?”

So you always get challenges along your path, and you see how you’re going to handle the challenges that come to you.

Well, I had just bought myself a nice car and had got myself a nice loan, and I was happy because this is where I wanted to be.  Turns out my car was taken away from me, it got stolen not three weeks after the purchase.  And I thought, what does this mean?  What does this mean?

There are many other lessons I got from this – but one is that things happen. You get caught up in life, you participate in life, and you can become a statistic.  Ok, I guess I’m a statistic.  And learning how to deal and handle with insurance companies, the whole gamut.

So 30 days go by and I am Just about ready to settle with the insurance company and I get a phone call.  It was the Newark police department, they found the car.   And I just went aww – Ok, I had it resolved within myself, ok, I don’t have that car.  And now I do.

So I am driving to get the car, and I look at my folder that I had all the papers in.  Talk about paperwork.    And I close the folder and I look at it, and it said on the front.  I had written – I didn’t realize I had written until I was driving there – it said “Car Recovery.”  That’s what I wrote on the file with all the paperwork in.  And I didn’t tell people that it was taken.

Imagine that.  My car came back because of the way I handled the situation. And the nicest part was that it was in perfect shape. And almost everything that I had in the car was still there.

Just to repeat myself, everything is a lesson.  Look at all the events in your life and see how you are handling them. What are the events telling you and what are you being told about the way you are handling them.

This is very important because there are no accidents.  So keep looking and learning.

It is very easy to understand how someone sees their life by the words they use. Now there are some obvious words that cannot be missed. If you use the word “hate” in most of your sentences then that would be the way your world would be colored. Likewise if you use the word “fear” all the time then we can assume certain things about the way you see the world. However, there are more subtle words that we use and it is those words that we will discuss in this article and there affects on your spiritual growth.

Try – This is one of the most difficult words to eliminate from our vocabulary. It sticks its little head in practically all of the ways we talk about getting things done. We might say “I’ll try and get that done” or “I will try and study” or “I will try and control my anger” or how about “I’ll try and meditate today”. The word try implies failure and weakness. To move along the path of spiritual growth we are looking for feelings of strength and success. Eliminate the word try from your speech. Eliminate the weakness it implies. Live in the strength of doing and completing.

Should – This is one of the most energy sapping words there is in your vocabulary. This word means obligation without desire. It means whatever you are not doing your are failing at. “I should be a better student” or “I should be more considerate” means that whatever you are doing is not good enough. And if you are living in “not good enough” all of the time that will deplete you of any energy you need for your growth. Live in the world of want and desire. “I want to be a good student” or “I desire to be more considerate”. These are expressions that show you the way forward.

I do not want to over burden you with to many words that stop your growth. It is enough to start with these to two major words. Look at your speech. Understand what you are saying and the meaning that you are sending forth into the universe. Speak in a positive and uplifting manner. Eliminate these two highly negative words and watch you world view change.

What is perfection?
Perfection is the movement and constant flow towards enlightenment.

How does one become enlightened?
The first step is to realize that we are able and have the ability to change our lives at any given moment, we have the power to choose how we evolve. So the first step is knowing. The second step is to accept responsibility for what we have chosen to change and put the steps to get there on a priority list. I suggest that you only list what you want to see change.

You always have the choices
I don’t know how many times people ask if there is one certain way that things need to be done. I tell them that you always have the choice to pick the way. That is why you see so many people struggling to move forward in their lives. They do not realize it is their action that is needed and so they are waiting for someone to give them the answers. The only real answer to anything is to take action. Once you put the thoughts out there then action is the only way to put things in play.

How long would one need to wait for the results of the action step?
I would say if all steps that you thought out were complete that is when you would see the results. Any idea can be successful if only one would put it to action.

Clear receptivity, clear thought, clear action
Time ultimately is only there to provide us with frame work to complete our ideas. We are here to play with as many ideas that we can come up with or receive from our guides. How do you know if the idea is your own or it was received from a guide? All information is sent on an energetic frequency for all to hear. Those tuned into the frequency at the time will get it. It’s like a radio. If your on another channel when an announcement is made you will miss it. But when you are on a channel and you hear an idea that feels right for you. Act quickly! We are always being fed information on the psychic channels. When you are tuned in think it through and write it down. Decide if this is for you. List steps to implement the idea and then if you want to go for it, get going!!

Just remember
Once you have heard it’s a matter of action to fulfill your desires. Now if you want to know how to implement an idea then you will need to ask and then tune into the channel. You do this by calming yourself, being open and asking precisely for what you want. Be attentive to ways in which you might receive your answers.

As I have said
Perfection is the movement and constant evolution towards enlightenment. We have the ability to change our lives at any given moment and we have the power to choose how we evolve. Take charge and choose your steps carefully and put them into decisive action.
