100 Stones in the Worry Bag

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Do you ever find yourself worrying about things you can’t control?  How about things that are not very likely to happen but you still obsess about them?  I grew up with a mom who was a major worrier, and I adopted a worry mentality myself.  I played the “what if” game a lot growing up.  [...]

Personal Branding Results

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

A few days ago I asked my readers to send me three adjectives they thought best described me.  Thank you to everyone who responded.  I wasn’t surprised by the responses, and it’s great to see what was said the most.  Here are my top 27, which includes adjectives that got at least 3 votes.  There [...]

Law of Attraction and the Role of Action

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

Recently someone asked me if you have to take action once you set an intention using the Law of Attraction (LOA) or if you can just set the intention and go on about your merry way. 
For the LOA to work effectively you have to set a clear intention and then become a vibrational match for it.  [...]

Every Vote Counts

Monday, February 4th, 2008

In my high school Government class, my teacher, Mr. Craft, had us do this wonderful experiment to help us understand how a President is elected in the United States of America.  I learned something valuable in the week long experiment, not just about how a President is elected, I learned something valuable about myself.  Here [...]

How To Find Your Optimal Medium

Monday, December 17th, 2007

In my blog entry, The Medium and The Message, and in Steve’s blog entry, The Medium vs. The Message, we both discuss the difference between your message and your medium.  In essence, your message is what you’re here to express or do, like teach people compassion, help people grow, or empower others.  Your medium is the method [...]

The Medium and the Message

Monday, December 10th, 2007

In most of the psychic readings I do, people ask about their life purpose.  Sometimes people specifically want career advice, and sometimes people just want to know why they’re here, perhaps why they’ve had such a tough life, and how they can help humanity best.  After doing literally hundreds of readings on the topic of [...]

When Life Appears to Be Against You

Tuesday, October 30th, 2007

“I work really hard but I just can’t get ahead.”
“Just when I think things are going well, something terrible happens.”
“I’ve been following my dream for over a decade but I’m still no closer to achieving it than when I started.”
“I can’t catch a break.”
“Life is against me.”
“No matter what I try, I always fail.”
Have you [...]

Fear of Public Speaking

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

Are you terrified of public speaking?  Do you go out of your way to avoid having to make a speech or presentation?  Fear of death and fear of public speaking are reported to be the two things people fear the most.  I can attest to the fear of public speaking part as I grew up being absolutely terrified of [...]

Making a Living vs. Making a Life

Monday, September 17th, 2007

In graduate school I remember taking an evening walk with my friend and we were talking about what we were going to do after college.  We knew we were going to have to get jobs and we were trying to determine where we’d be the most happy.  Our conversation went roughly like this:
Me:  Something doesn’t [...]

Pesky Logic

Monday, September 10th, 2007

I was on my way to pick up my kids from school.  My usual route is to take the freeway which takes about 10 minutes.  But on this particular day I saw a huge and unusual back up on the freeway.  It was jam packed and cars were just inching along.  My intuition said, “Get [...]
