Yes you can...

William Michael Forbes




If you have less of what you want you may be saying no too often and not even know it.wmf

A Well known fact: Most people aren’t even aware when they are stopping themselves from getting what they want...and some people think they were just lucky when they do get what they want.


There is a life that is within us all that has been the life of every living thing upon this planet for as long as life has existed. Right now it beats your heart and the heart of every living person and every other life form upon the face of this earth even as you read these words. Religion calls this life God...Science calls this life energy, new age thinkers call this life consciousness. It won’t matter what you decide to call it...it exists and the sheer reality of its existence

Is found in the simple rhythms of our heartbeat which seems to utter the words I AM, I AM, I AM, with every single beat...or maybe it’s I DO, I Do, I Do.... or can it be “I CAN, I CAN, I CAN...just listen to yours or someone else’s heart for a few minutes and decide which one it is for you.

Science does not know what triggers the heart to beat during the development of the fetus...it just starts one day and keeps going until it is done and as long as it beats on we have the freedom to do and be as we may choose or not choose to. I’m up fairly early today and I’m faced with a goal that seems very difficult to do...the goal...to write as many as twenty pages of material per day for the next thirty days. A part of me is saying...

”How can that be! You can barely write one page an hour!”

and another part of me says...

”Just write as close to twenty pages a day as you can and see how far you are in thirty days.”

One voice is the voice of doubt...one voice is the voice of growth and success... every time we set a goal for ourselves...there are always these two voices tugging us into to a should I, shouldn’t I mentality...unless you have learned to only listen to the best one, which brings us to today’s lesson on How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less.

Today’s lesson will take about two minutes out of every hour for up to eight hours and is about discovering the goals you are setting for yourself and seeing if there are any changes you may want to make consciously to them. So for two minutes out of each hour, relax your body and quiet your mind with a couple of slow deep breaths and then ask yourself the following question...what is my goal at this moment and listen to what comes up from your mind...then ask these two questions...”Is this what I really want to do?” and “Is there a better way I can accomplish this?” and finally explore the answer or idea that feels right to you and...

Have a Great Day!
