How to avoid being a surprise cast member in Gone with The Wind

Have you noticed that once in a while you seem to forget everything you’ve learned about how you co-create reality?

Do you start your day with the thought of “Today is an awesome day and I am prosperous beyond my wildest dreams! Everything I need comes to me easily and effortlessly.” etc., etc.?

So what happens in between? After a few days?

Sure you got dragonflies to visit, songs on the radio that spoke right at you, weird colored cars that no one ever sees, that all totally prove Quantum Fred (Source/ Goddess/ Universe) Big Daddy, etc. was in cahoots to give you proof He/She/It was listening.

Did you look at all the things you want to create and do, like finally have the guts to leave your desk job and launch your coaching or sweet potato pie business, then wonder who will come anyway, and how will you be able to add at least one zero on the end of your teeny bank balance before your hair turns white?

Imagine saying to the bank, “I would like more zeros in my account please.” After all how hard is that to come up with “zero”??

Then your mind chimes in. “How are YOU gonna do THAT?” or like Scarlett O’Hara you cry, “O Rhett what’ll I do?” The curtains are looking pretty good about now.

And kaboom, the Great Forgetting smokes you out of your faith.

Sometimes it seems this strange state of self-centered fear hides behind the bushes right in the middle of your Field of Dreams and then blows some smoke on you and your vision gets blurred. From the sureness of knowing that you have a co-creative partner and building your foundations in a lush abundance, to kneeling like Scarlett O’Hara gagging in the dust shoving dirt and a raw turnip in your mouth. WTF?

You DID begin with an awesome sense of wonder (we practiced last week-remember the Easter egg blessings hunt?) yet mid-point you went into tilt mode. From a wide spectacular open vision where you can see for miles and miles, to your life and dreams being swapped out for the most embarrassing parts of Gone with The Wind. “I don’t know nothing ‘bout birthin’ babies”.

What just happened?

You may have just suffered a temporary bout of spiritual amnesia!

In brief:

You forgot who you are and who your real partner is in the business of Life.

You have undeniable symptoms: Inspiration is unplugged, Creativity is running low, Fear is rising, The Ego has taken over the ship.

You break out in scarcity, and gloom spots, time becomes limited and energy is leaking.

You’re caught wandering the halls in your head muttering “nothing is working” and also on the phone.

The illness seeks to reinforce itself by repetition to the afflicted and to others susceptible to said affliction.

The only Cure:

Go back to what you KNOW

Face it, we all get it once in a while, some people are there most of the time, but they won’t be reading this. You, on the other hand may fall prey to the smoke, at least temporarily, some of the time.  Usually when you least expect it.

The only antidote however cannot be found by the eyes you normally look through.

Nope. You need to scramble on back inside yourself to find another pair of eyes to shift your perspective and perception so that you can remember who you are and WHO is working with you to create the whole wealth of the life you want to be part of.

Go Back to what you KNOW. You are a spiritual being in a material universe. You have a Higher Power that has everything you could possibly need and want waiting for you when you ask for it.

You live in a playground for wealth creation.

You will SEE what you believe. (or that you ask to see)

So Let’s talk wealth.

Wealth needs to be defined by you not by the trap society has placed for you, and although money is important, as an exchange of energy, it’s not first on the list at all. (hence the zeros)

Wealth is about meaning, purpose, value, and creativity, and being able to make your mark with gratitude, wonder and awe at what’s possible.

We do that in a partnership with each other but all of us are connected to a much Greater Source than ourselves that works through us and for us if we get out of our own way.

It’s about flow—not flailing, faith—not fog, freedom—not fear.

We all need to remember when we get a bout of spiritual amnesia the cure is simple.

We are always connected to a Power Greater, just like electricity we need to stay plugged in.
