Sometimes I wish I could ‘wave my Magic Wand’ and make all the difficulties of this life disappear! Wouldn’t that be nice?
But I guess I wouldn’t be learning these lessons if I weren’t encountering some difficulties. And I do accept that we are here to learn lessons.
Perhaps the most important lesson to learn is that we HAVE a Magic Wand! Think how empowering it is to really trust that we can manage our thoughts and impact our world.
Now, I’m not talking about turning that guy who cut me off in traffic into a toad or stealing something I like from someone else. [And maybe it’s a good thing we DON’T do that on a whim!] But I do believe that our thoughts are powerful things, energized to magnetize and attract what they contain in their essence.
How many times have you thought about a person and that person appears or phones or emails? Coin cidence? I don’t think so! You waved your Magic Wand and they appeared!
Or have you ever had someone say, ‘Let’s go out for Chinese food!’ and you answered, ‘I was just wishing I could get that amazing spicy chicken dish at PF Changs!’? You think you want Chinese food, and someone picks up on that thought and suggests the very thing you were thinking. Could be spooky.
Now think about a time when you worried about something and then it happened. Have you ever said, ‘I just know that ___’ [fill in this blank: it’s going to rain, they’ll be out of that sale item, nobody will show up, etc.] and had that very thing happen? Have you ever heard yourself say, ‘See? I knew it would be that way!’?
One thing about the Universe is true. It operates the way it operates, whether you believe it or not. It’s like gravity. You drop something and it falls to the ground. Do you have t o believe in gravity? Do you have to understand gravity? Even physics professors can’t explain why gravity works but they know how it operates.
So it is really immaterial whether or not you believe you have a Magic Wand that is the aggregate of your thoughts. It operates that way.
The lesson is to learn to focus your thoughts on what you desire, dream, wish.
The new brain science findings tell us that we can shift our thoughts by noticing them, saying, ‘Stop!’ and then redirecting them to a replacement thought. The more you think a particular thought, the more entrenched that neural pathway becomes in your brain. This is why obsessing about a thought makes it more and more difficult to move off of that thought – your brain gets stuck in a rut! But if you are living a Conscious Life, you practice catching yourself in an undesired thought, you say, ‘Stop!’ and you move over into another neural pathway and re inforce the new one with the new thought. The more you practice this, the more deeply entrenched the desired thought [neural pathway] becomes in your brain, and the easier it is to get to the new thought instead of the old.
This is science, not woowoo. And it’s pretty magical!
I’ve worked with clients who struggle with shifting into this new way of operating, but, once they do, they are amazed at how much better life becomes. It’s not about changing the situations – it’s about changing how we THINK about the situations so the situations can change.
This is the fundamental lesson. You are magical! You have a powerful Magic Wand! And you can control the magic by controlling your thoughts.
Doesn’t that sound cool?

Remember the magic. There is magic in your life, right now, today, appearing all around you.
Some people call it ‘coincidence.’ Others ‘serendipity.’ Some say ‘chance.’ Others ‘luck.’ But it is all MAGIC.
You are a magical being. Think of yourself as the Wizard of the World, in your own life and in your own world. You wave your Magic Wand and make things happen around you.
Are you disbelieving that this is so?
Your Magic Wand is the aggregate of your thoughts. You are waving this wand at all times. What you are thinking is moving out into the world to manifest even as you have the thought. YOU are the director of this magical story and you send your thoughts out to attract and find their essence.
Are you thinking about that which you lack? The energy that flows off the tip of your Magic Wand is the energy of lack. It floats away and creates the energetic match to ‘lack.’
Are you thinking about how terrible a situation is in your life? The energy that flows off the tip of your Magic Wand is the energy of what is terrible in that situation and creates the matching energy.
Once you realize that you are always holding the power of your Magic Wand you will consciously choose the energy that you flow out from the tip of that wand. Why would you flow anything other than the energy of what you desire in your life?
This does not mean that there are not occasions where some things do not go as you wish, but you must attach your thoughts to what it is you do wish, not to what does not match. There are two reasons for these occasions to arise.
The first is to bring you a lesson that you need to learn. You might be wishing for something and yet a part of you is not in congruence with that wish. This incongruence will send out a confu sing energy pattern and the lesson will arise for you to learn, to self-examine so that you can resolve the confusion and learn your lesson. Afterwards, you might want to modify your desires based on the new understanding you achieve from learning the lesson.
The second reason is that there are other human beings with free will who are waving their own magic wands into the Universe. You and your Soul Group, the group of Souls who have agreed to share lessons in this lifetime, are helping each other to learn lessons and you might be the instructor in someone else’s lesson. At these times, you must remain in your own learning mode and model standing in your truth. If you allow yourself to be drawn off course you will miss your own lessons and your Magic Wand will start sending off unconscious energy instead of the consciousness of what you desire.
So are you ready to get out there and be the Wizard of the World of your own Life? Know that you are su pported in this. Your thoughts are acting on your behalf at all times. Take charge of your thoughts. Bring them into alignment with your dreams and vision for your own life. Remove the limiting beliefs and negative thoughts that block the sending out of pure intention for what you wish to bring into your life.
Seek the support of like-minded individuals and groups who will support you in living your magical life. THIS is what humanity is evolving toward. You are making magic for the 21st Century!
And so it is.

How compelling is the vision that you have for your Life? DO you have a vision?
This was brought home to me by a good friend who asked me about my vision. I had some ideas but I hadn’t fully fleshed out the vision. As she asked me more details I started to get excited. I knew the details! I could see the colors, hear the sounds, feel the breeze and the temperature. I knew exactly how it would feel to be in that scenario. I could see other parts of that life, too. Active parts and relaxing parts.
And it felt really good!
Then, when I went back to writing some marketing copy, something I’m not particularly fond of doing, I had a renewed interest and excitement because it wasn’t about having to do the chore of writing the copy – it was about supporting that Life that I had visited in my vision. THAT’S a motivator!
And so I invite you to create a compelling vision for your Life, one that draws you forward toward it. If you find yourself talking about what you don’t want in that Life, that’s okay but move your language to the other side of that coin and talk about what you DO want. Sometimes we get information from the identification of what we don’t want but if we dwell on that we energize the very thing we don’t want instead of what we do want. So keep your thoughts focused on what you DO want in your vision.
Create a movie in your mind. You’re the director and the star and the screenwriter. You have full creative control over this project. What does the house look like? What is the setting? Lighting? Temperature? Location? Who is starring in the cast besides you – anyone? What foods are on the table? What colors are around you? What activities are on the calendar? What car is in the garage?
Keep going. Identify the details. Who are you with? What are you doing? How do you relax? What does your work look like?
Isn’t this fun?
And, since you are the director, you can always call, ‘Cut!’ and start over. You are always in charge of how this movie turns out, and the project doesn’t have to ever become static because there’s always another aspect to play with.
But as you see yourself both directing and starring in this film called, ‘My Life,’ step into your roles, don’t just view them from afar.
Your unconscious mind cannot distinguish between the images that are happening in the 3-dimensional world we refer to as ‘reality’ and the reality of your visions. Step into that vision and live it. Your unconscious mind will take this as instructions to ‘Make it so,’ quoting my favorite Starship Captain Jean Luc Picard.
But notice the power of your unconscious mind. It will take any command from what you think about and envision and it will assume you are saying, ‘Make it so.’ THIS is why it is so important that you create the vision of what you want and energize that! If you ask your unconscious mind to create what you don’t want, it will do so.
So it is important that you become aware of your thoughts, your words. Make sure you hold the vision in your consciousness so that you are always moving in that direction, not as if it is in the future but aligning yourself with that vision in the present. Keep yourself focused on the manifestation of your vision IN THE NOW.
It might seem like a miracle but it starts to manifest and you are suddenly realizing that you are in it!
Cool stuff, right?

Have things ever looked so bleak that you thought there was no way out of the dark pit you were in? Were you ever so low that you thought you’d never climb up?
When something happens or circumstances and people and situations seem hopeless we can easily let ourselves focus on nothing but the problems and the darkness that we feel. It can take a Herculean effort to pull ourselves up out of that pit when the temptation to wallow in the darkness is so great because we just can’t muster the energy it would take to shift. Or, worse, we don’t even believe that we can make a shift.
Often when we are wrestling with a problem we think that we must continue to focus on that problem, thinking about it, dwelling on it, talking about it, telling the story over and over again. We begin to frame our life in terms of the problems and we sink more deeply into the darkness.
We can, however, take some action to lift ourselves up out of that darkness. I’m not talking about sticking our fingers in our ears and saying ‘la-la-la-la-la’ until we can’t hear even our own thoughts, even though at times that can be very tempting. But we can instead decide not to attach to thoughts of the problems. If we keep thinking about the problem then we stay in the space where the problem occurs or occurred. The solutions live elsewhere. If we attach to the vibration of the darkness brought about by a problem then we cannot see into the Light that illuminates the solution for us.
The first rule here is to realize, ‘I am not my thoughts.’ Say that to yourself right now: I am not my thoughts. A corollary to this is: I don’t have to believe everything I think.
Too often we fixate on a thought, especially a thought about a problem, and we find it almost impossible to move our thinking off that point. But it is never impossible to make that move, although sometimes it feels very difficult. A slight shift in our thinking helps us to open the darkness a crack and start to see some Light.
Try it the next time you find yourself dwelling on a problem that you face. Ask yourself what you would rather be thinking about than that problem. Maybe it’s a person who makes you laugh, or a movie that you saw or a book that you read or music that you enjoy. Just for a minute, allow yourself to think a different thought.
That’s all it takes to start the shift. The problem might still be there but you have started the process of opening yourself to finding potential solutions rather than keeping yourself stuck in the problem thoughts. Then it is possible for you to do the visualization to fill yourself with a colored Light that helps you to shift your vibrational level to a higher one than the level of the problem. Now you are starting to reach into the dimension where the solutions lie. Now you can be open to searching for solutions instead of focusing on problems.
We all experience darkness in our lives at times but to banish the darkness we must commit to ourselves that we will seek the Light and avoid attaching to the thoughts that keep us in the darkness. Make that decision today!

New ideas float around all the time. Sometimes it’s fun to follow a new idea to see where it leads. And sometimes the new idea challenges us to explore those values that we have clung to for a long time, believing that they represented the truth. What do you do when you encounter a new idea?
Our habitual patterns dictate how we react when we encounter something new. In the animal kingdom there is often a wariness of something new being introduced into the environment. Have you ever watched a cat when a bug walks across its path. It sniffs, it bats at it, it might pick up the bug in its mouth and carry it around for awhile. The cat is playing with this ‘thing’ as it figures out what it is and what to do with it.
So often we do not allow ourselves to ‘play’ with an idea, to ponder it for awhile and let it unfold and display itself fully to us. Have you ever rejected something new as a knee-jerk reaction before you’ve fully explored it? We have probably all done that once or twice! But what if we decide that we will not reject new ideas out of hand when they are presented to us? What if we decide today to give ourselves a chance to stay with an idea, to play with it as the cat plays with the bug, to explore or to ponder that idea until we have learned what we can about and from that idea? We might even go so far as to decide that the idea has merit and we wish to adopt that idea as being true for us at this time.
When we force ourselves to cling to old thought, old ideas because they are comfortable to us we narrow our vision of the world until we cannot see expansively into the realm of ‘the greater’ – that which is beyond our little truth and exists in the cosmos as a reality of greater proportion than our own limited perspective. What would we believe if all humans of the past several centuries had done this? We would not have our understanding of the heavens if Galileo and Copernicus and Kepler had not worked with new ideas to advance our ability to learn about the cosmos and we would not have the Hubble Space Telescope sharing new information about our origins. If Einstein had not developed his theory of relativity, or Newton his ideas, or any number of other scientists had decided not to explore down avenues that had no known conclusion, we would all be living a very different life.
And it is not just the scientists who advance thought. The philosophers do it, too. What if the philosophers throughout time had not pondered the bigger questions for us? What would we believe today?
You might think that you are not a scientist or a philosopher, but you are. You are a human living in 21st Century Earth and you are therefore a co-creator of your reality. Your thoughts are things and become reality. Why would you choose to think the thoughts of days gone by simply because they are familiar and comfortable? Are you not curious about where new ideas might lead you? Do you have a desire to be a creative force in your own life?
Then allow yourself to ponder great questions. Read up on new thought and decide for yourself what you accept and what you question. Pursue that which you are interested in exploring further. Encourage those around you, especially the children, to be curious explorers of ideas. Challenge them to dig more deeply into an idea that intrigues them. Support your friends and family when they come up with something that is new to you. Foster the concept of research. Allow human consciousness to expand.

Dear Ones,
The world is a changing place. The coming energies of 2012 demand that each individual takes responsibility for his or her own life. No blaming others. No looking to others for rescue or salvation. No giving away of power. Each human being is called to claim their own inner power, no matter what the outside circumstances might indicate. Every individual must find their own voice.
But, and this is a big part of the coming times, each individual must also see that they are a part of a collective whole, that All Are One, for greed is the energetic force that convinces an individual that they are separate from the others. LOVE is the energetic force that calls forth compassion, an energy of compassion that is not born in pity but rather from an understanding that All are Connected in the Whole.
Isolationism will destroy the world if it is born out of greed and lack of compassion. Individuals need each other on a primal, survival level in the 21st Century. Very few people are totally self-sufficient, especially in the Western World, where people rely on methods of transportation that use fuels that deplete the health and vitality of Mother Earth. And yet many individuals are acting as if they are totally independent of all others. This is hypocrisy!
We are not just talking about having food, shelter, transportation and medical care here, but there is a societal factor to the interaction between and among human beings. People need other people. Conversation that uplifts and expands the individuals involved, or that brings nebulous ideas into clearer focus based on the synergy of the discussion is beneficial to all of humanity because of the resultant expansion of the Collective Consciousness.
Every person should see their thoughts, speech and actions as elements affecting the Collective Consciousness. Are you expanding that? Or are your thoughts, speech and actions having a deleterious effect on those around you and, thus, on the Collective Consciousness? What are you putting into this body of consciousness for your grandchildren and great-grandchildren to access in the future?
You have a responsibility to future generations to avoid polluting the Collective Consciousness with negative energy. You have a responsibility to future generations to expand the world view from the tiny perspective based on greed to the expanded one that flows from the energy of Love.
Love cares that other human beings are suffering. Love understands that those who have much are required to share so that all on the planet might live. Love dictates that wars and killing are not the answers that move humanity forward in the evolution of Consciousness. Love teaches that one person’s choice for greed over Love constricts the energy not only of that one person but of all around them. Love is generous in thought, accepting others as they are, sharing from the heart, supporting others along their journey. Love does not judge. Love does not hate. Love does not set oneself up as better than others but seeks to understand and accept differences. Love reaches out to serve not to grab what it can. Love connects one to Source Energy so that miserliness and greed do not resonate and are eliminated.
Each person must now seek this kind of Love, for all worries and concerns are dissipated in the energy of Love. It is greed for what one desires that brings on worries. Surrendering to the flow of Love expands one so much that one’s Life can then encompass that which one desires in one’s heart. This way of Living will shift the Conscious Ones into the next vibration.
And that is the task for every human being now inhabiting Planet Earth.
And So It Is.

Dear Ones,
We are aware that many people spend much of their time worrying about money. Or should we say, the lack of money. We wish you to change your thoughts.
Money is not abundance or prosperity. Is it REALLY money that you lack or is it a feeling of freedom, abundance, prosperity? What is it you are really feeling when you focus on money or the lack of money?
You can take something whose only value is created when two parties agree on the value and make that thing the essence of your thoughts and, thus, your Life. OR you can change your thinking, control your thoughts, and focus on abundance, prosperity and freedom.
For many of you, you have equated money with these qualities of Life. That is a false equivalent. Would you not feel freer without a mortgage to pay? Would you not feel more prosperous if you felt yourself making choices from a place of empowerment rather than from a place of lack (“I could do that but I choose something else” rather than “I can’t afford that”)? And wouldn’t you feel more abundant in your Life if you appreciated and cared for what is in your Life especially if you have only those things in your Life that you love instead of focusing on what you don’t have or dealing with /feeling burdened by the things in your Life that you don’t love?
You do have the power of choice when it comes to your thoughts. Even those thoughts that arise unbidden in your consciousness can be attached to or let go of – it’s your choice. Where you focus your attention is also your choice. The Law of Attraction states that you attract into your Life that which you magnetize with the energy of your thoughts. What have you been thinking about today?
Now if you are saying that your Life is a struggle to pay the bills then we would tell you to take heart and heed these words today. You are choosing to struggle. Let that go. You are choosing to have those bills in your Life today, perhaps because of decisions made when you did not have the consciousness and awareness that you have today. That is okay. Every day contains new lessons for you to learn and today is no exception to that.
Think differently about the bills you have to pay. Move into gratitude that you have always been making the right choices to learn the lessons of your Life. Rejoice in the empowered feeling of continuing to make choices. Even if your choice is about which bill to pay and which bill to delay, make a choice. You focus on what you don’t want [a consequence] and you energize that. Focus on feeling empowered instead of victimized and you will attract greater empowerment.
There is a difference between bringing your focus fully into the present moment and focusing on ‘what is’ instead of what you desire. There are two aspects to this that it is important for you to consider.
The first is that you must pull all your energy into this present moment because this is your Life. All you have is this moment.
But when you are in this moment thinking about what you don’t have, you steal energy from this moment, your magnetizing/attracting energy, and you give it away to the lack of what you desire.
Think instead of how it will feel when you bring what you desire into this present moment. Energize and ramp up that feeling. Add gratitude to that emotional experience. Smile – with your facial muscles and with your heart.
This is how you attract that which you desire.
When you focus on lack or on the difference between what is and what you desire you make yourself unhappy. When you live in acceptance of what is and an appreciation that you always have the power to change your thoughts – about what is and about what you desire – then you can live an abundant, prosperous, empowered Life in freedom.
We realize that this is a complicated issue but we invite you to start today practicing these techniques. Energize abundance, prosperity and freedom by thinking thoughts and feeling feelings of abundance, prosperity and freedom.
And so it is.

In my old computer programmer days [seems like centuries ago!] we used to say, ‘GIGO – Garbage In, Garbage Out’! Seems that’s what this message is all about. What we input into our internal database is what comes out in our life.
So what are you putting in? When I work with clients who are accepting what others are trying to input it reminds me of the days when someone gave us ‘garbage’ to put in the database on the computer but expected a ‘garden’ to come out of it. That only works if the garbage is fertilizer and you also plant flowers!
Your thoughts are your thoughts. Other people own their thoughts, too. But it’s up to you to decide which thoughts you will accept and store away in your database. Do you believe in your own self-worth or have you let someone else define that for you? For example, we women look at magazines and think that we must measure up [or down!] to what we see. But even those models say they don’t look like that either! Have you had a parent or spouse or friend tell you that being an entrepreneur is not wise because there’s no security in that? Not true!
I’ve had several clients who have heard this in some form or other but today’s job market is not like it was decades ago. No one’s job is secure today. But if you are an entrepreneur you can make your own success, you can adjust your course, you can use the Law of Attraction to your benefit without being impeded by others. YOU have more options than someone who is not on their own. If you are in a job as an employee, you must still decide who YOU are because your job description does not define you!
And look at your relationships to see if you are allowing others to input their ideas, thoughts, models of the world into your internal database. It’s pretty easy to let that happen. But they are not living your Life Purpose. It is not their responsibility to live out your mission on Planet Earth.
Now look at what you regularly input into your own database. So often we read, digest, listen to ‘stuff’ that does not lift up our own internal vibration. We allow ourselves to be lowered to a frequency that does not resonate with our spirit and we can’t understand why we are feeling ‘down.’ It’s our internal vibratory frequency that is ‘down.’ That’s the clue that we must do something to lift our own vibration.
Remember the Beach Boys’ song, ‘Good Vibrations’? [OK, maybe I’m the only one old enough to remember the Beach Boys!] Our internal mechanisms want us to feel good, to feel those ‘Good Vibrations.’ What are you doing today to feel a higher vibration than the day might bring on its own?
As I write this I have had technical glitches with three client sessions – three! My whole morning. What was that all about? Now my choice is to rail against the Universe or the gods of cyberspace, or I can deal with each issue as it arises and move forward. I chose the latter path.
We are always at choice about how to respond to what happens to us. But our options for those responses come from our own internal database. We must be careful to input only that which we would be happy to bring out as an option, a possible choice for us. This is why it is such a good idea to periodically clear out the database by clearing limiting beliefs, negative thoughts, blocks that we might not even know we have. Often times when I work with clients, this is the most important work we do. The rest of what they are looking for flows from this!
You might also try the ‘nightly review’ where before you go to sleep you review your day, going backwards through the day to decide if, next time, there is a better choice for you to make in a certain situation. This instructs your Unconscious Mind to store the new choice as an option for next time instead of the old one.
Take out the ‘garbage’ every night!

Create Your Baby! – Richard’s Commentary
October 1, 2014 — RichardRosemary and I just returned to the East Coast from LA and our first visit to our newest grandson, the baby who was the inspiration for Rosemary’s post this past Friday. It is wonderful to have a baby in the family again, even one who is 3000 miles away! We are now inspired to see him often, to watch him grow and to nurture him along his way, as only grandparents can!
And by writing this I have formed my own “baby”, one of my “next steps” in the process of living the life I choose. My intention is to play a significant role in Tristan’s life, no matter where his parents choose to live. Meeting him and being with him this past week reinforced his “calling” to us for our attention! Now I just have to make it all happen. How?
The answer is in Rosemary’s post:
The most important choice that you make is the choice of thoughts that you will think.
Really. This is most important. Your thoughts really do create your reality. Many people try to deny this but worrying about something you DON’T want energizes that which you don’t want. You want to program your unconscious mind to focus energy on that which you DO want and you make this happen by choosing your thoughts to support the direction of your creative dream.
So, I am choosing to think that I will spend significant time with Tristan as he grows and develops no matter how far apart we may live. I have been traveling much of my life for much less important reasons; I intend to continue my journeying well into the future! And I do know that my thoughts and intentions create my reality. Here is a minor story to prove Rosemary’s point.
During our trip to LAX from “the Valley” yesterday traffic was heavy – imagine that! But we had allowed plenty of time and neither of us was worried about our schedule. My boarding pass indicated I was “pre-cleared” through TSA to even save time through security screening. Rosemary set two intentions as we approached the airport: an easy bag-check process and she would join me in the “pre-cleared” line! I was so confident that we were in good shape that I set no intentions for myself as I dropped her with the bags and then left to return the rental car. Here’s where my lesson began!
As we pulled up to curb-check the bags a car was about to pull away where I needed to be; after a brief wait I pulled into that spot right in front of the skycap desk. As I got out and popped the trunk a skycap came to help with the bags; it couldn’t have been easier! I left Rosemary to get the claim checks and raced off to the rental agency.
And I hit a wall of traffic on Century Boulevard! It had been shut down to one lane for an emergency repair. I crept a car length or two through each light cycle. I finally made it to a gas station to top off the tank before returning the car; there the pump wouldn’t take my credit card so I had to go into the store twice, once to get the pump on and once to retrieve the receipt! After a half-hour delay and increasing tension I finally got on the bus to return to the airport and join Rosemary.
Security wasn’t too bad by this time and I breezed through on my pre-clearance. And Rosemary? Yes, she did talk her way into the pre-cleared line as well! We made it to our gate with plenty of time to spare!
Once again the power of intention, that “thoughts really do create reality” hit me over the head! Rosemary had set her intention for a very smooth bag-check and screening process. I had not paid attention nor set intention for a very smooth rental return process! And as I became frustrated in the traffic jam my frustration was compounded at the gas station!
A trivial example perhaps, but: Really. This is most important. Your thoughts really do create your reality.
PS: We will be seeing Tristan in November as he travels to the east coast for a family visit and again in December as we travel to LA on business! Thoughts really do create our reality!
