Wow....how powerful is that? As you know, I am a big fan of Louise L Hay. She is such an inspiration and keeps me going every single day.
Today I wanted to share this affirmation:
Changes can Begin in This Moment - I AM Willing to Change.
I have worked with many people over the years who have been on the same journey I find myself on right now. Therefore I want to share with you this affirmation, especially today, as I AM in the middle of change. My thought processes are changing as well as my attitude and connection to SELF.
As you know I love change!! My partner can certainly vouch for that one! However, I must admit that my current change process is not a process I enjoy at all times. Have you heard of 'holding a mirror in front of you'??? Well...that is happening BIG time!
Out of the big changes occurring within me, there is once thing that has been clearly indicated to me by the Universe: lately the Universe has presented me with people behaving in away that I don't relate to (to say the least), in particular responses towards me: frustration, short answers, not having the time for me or not being in contact with me eventhough they guaranteed they would be in contact. Once I became aware of this I started to think; "why are people behaving like this. I don't like this...". And then some of the self-doubt is coming right back in....and if you know me well...that is unacceptable to me! ;o)
Then the questions came: Why is this happening? Is it something I am doing?
Answer in a big Newsflash for me: Yes!!! It is something I am doing and it is happening as I need to learn from this. I am going to change my behaviour and the way I react to situations, conversations and people.
I CHOOSE to make minor adjustments in my behaviour and communication as I want to see better results and feel better about my change. "What are you doing to make this happen?" is what I hear you ask.
I am doing a small thing every day: O R C
ORC stands for: Observe, Respond and Compassion
The way this works is to first become the observer. Observe what is going on. Observe the communication, action, behaviour and anything else that you are doing/saying. It is so important to observe and identify what it is that you are doing. Not the other person, but you. And to observe is easy, however, observe without judgement or blame. Observing without judgement or blame is the key as that is when we remain objective to our situation and we will be able to then identify how we are going to respond. That is the second step: respond. Respond with SELF.
Wow - how do you respond with SELF? That is such a hard thing to do, or so I thought. The key here is to 'listen' to yourself and respond accordingly. Responding with the highest vibration possible in that moment. Not with your ego, not with your 'emotional' you...with your SELF - responding with love; responding through love. This will then enable you to show compassion. And this is the third step: Compassion for yourself, but also for the other person.
All this happens because we then become conscious of what we are doing or saying; how we are behaving. Only then can we consciously change and create new habits. New lasting habits...
As my coach beautifully shared with me:-
"The more light I bring to a situation, the more easy it is for me to create what I want"
How true is that??!!
With Love and Light,
