FIND RESOLUTION

Are you caught up in doom and gloom? 

 

Do you want to stay where your mind is living (your focus)?

 

Does your attitude create anxiety? Find resolution. Life lessons will happen but your response to them creates the experience.  Do not react; respond intentionally.
Many people have mentioned they feel lost and overwhelmed due to outside sources.  Many are overwhelmed by the current financial environment of uncertainty.

 

Everyone faces hurdles, some obvious, some not so obvious.  Life holds many experiences.

 

We have options available to us to relieve the challenges of everyday life.  All things in life are temporary. Absolutely nothing is permanent. Change is guaranteed.  We must learn to act when we can and accept when change is out of our hands.

 

The most important act we can take is to examine our focus or attitude towards any given event.  We have talked about this many times, but it is so important, we MUST repeat it!  If you are dealing with something causing anxiety and worry, you have to step back and look at it from a clear, unemotional perspective.  What can you change, especially, how can you change your attitude towards this life lesson?

 

It is not an easy task to shift our thoughts and expectations, but we are all capable of making the adjustments necessary to ease the tensions being felt.

 

Shift your focus to the great things in your life, whatever they may be (no matter how big or how small).  Release your focus on what is missing; focus on gratitude.  Don’t ignore the life lesson as the lesson is there to be learned.  If we ignore it, it will only heighten the circumstances as we cannot escape these lessons. We can’t hide our heads in the sand.  We must face the situation head on dealing with it in a constructive manner and not get caught up in believing that it will not go away or that we cannot fix the problem.

 

If we see the positive, we feel the positive.  If we focus on negativity, all we experience is negativity.  It takes work.  We are not suggesting that this will come easy, but refocusing is similar to a muscle.  Keep exercising it and watch is strengthen.  Be persistent.  Do not give up or give in.  Be determined! Dig in your heels! 

 

It has taken years to develop your attitude, it will take effort to change it.  You can do this!

 

Find resolution by looking within first.  Is your attitude your greatest source of anxiety? Life lessons will happen but your response to them creates the experience.  Do not react; respond intentionally.  Practice, practice, practice!

REVIEW LAST YEAR’S ACHIEVEMENTS

Our achievements or lack thereof are based on our personal definition of achievement. To one person, the very act of taking the first step towards a goal is achievement and to another person, achievement is crossing the finish line of their goals.

 

We must prioritize our goals.  You must first ask yourself how important each goal is to you.  How much effort are you willing to put into each goal?

 

It’s important to review last year’s achievements to set yourself up for a new year of success.  Believe in yourself and take that first step.
When we reflect on our achievements, bear in mind their priority to you. A half-hearted effort will achieve a less than perfect outcome.  If you gave it a half-hearted effort, it cannot have been that high on your priority list.

 

If you achieved what you set out to do, congratulations on your effort. It is important to give yourself recognition for your effort.  If you fell short of what you wanted to accomplish, examine why. If it is important, set a new plan for yourself to achieve this goal.  If it is not very important, maybe it’s time to let it go and move on. 

 

Internal dialogue is extremely important. Do not allow yourself to wallow in self-pity if you fall short.  Your approach to life should always be positive but also realistic.  If you fell short, ask yourself what you learned.  If you accomplished what you set out to do, reflect on your plans and efforts used and be proud as you would have had to work hard to make this happen.

 

In most cases, it’s best to work on yourself first (on your attitude and your own personal belief structures).  You can’t accomplish if you believe from the beginning that you will fail. 

 

Set some goals for yourself for this year.  Make them realistic.  Reach for something that you know is attainable, something that is worthwhile. Believe that you can do this.  Focus on one step at a time. Commit to following through no matter what obstacles you might face. 

 

It’s important to review last year’s achievements and how you got there to set yourself up for a new year of success.  Believe in yourself and take that first step.

SOCIAL CONDITIONING

We are taught throughout our life, but especially at an early age, how to behave.  We learn primarily from our parents or primary care givers and gain more insight as we begin to mature into ourselves, which takes a lifetime.  We learn how to adapt to life’s situations often taught through experience.  We learn how to manage or overcome adversity.  We learn about love and affection, hopefully beginning at an early age with our parents and once we have learned to love ourselves, we learn how to share our love with those around us.

 

Life is a learning tool that we all share. Listen & then contemplate your decisions (eliminating reaction) no matter what your social conditioning.
We become conditioned to react or respond depending on our upbringing and self-study.

 

We can be dictated to by our peers and others.  We may sometimes wonder if we are just puppets interacting the way we should without our consent.  Are we supposed to behave this way or that way, or is this just what we have become accustomed to doing? 

 

We may follow advice but, in many cases, the best advice comes from within, that little voice within which we all hear but not often listen to.

 

We are not suggesting that we fight the advice we are given, but as adults, we should now be in a state of knowing of what is right and wrong. We can make up our own minds without the chatter from others.  Authority figures are not always right, but they are worth listening to if they are teaching from experience.  Many have had years of experience and can guide us in the appropriate direction.  Ultimately, however, the final decision is ours personally.

 

Do we follow along blindly or make our own decisions. If we fall, we can always get back on our feet and learn from the experience.  These are the greatest life lessons.

 

In reality, we walk our own road, follow our own personal path, make our own decisions regardless of what other people have pushed on us. It is always up to us to make that final decision if we have the maturity to stop and question.

 

Life is the learning tool that we all share. We do not walk this road alone, although as mentioned we walk our own road.  We should listen and then contemplate our own decisions (eliminating reaction) no matter what our social conditioning.  Follow your hearts and the advice that echoes within. 

 

Enjoy the passage, learn from life and all its teachings, share your knowledge with those that want to listen and live the life that suits your journey.

LEADERSHIP

A good leader listens before making decisions to ensure the best outcome for all. Their decisions can have profound effects.  What is good leadership?
What makes for good leadership? 

 

Are personality, looks, education, experience, and/or respect important qualities for a leader?

 

The qualities of a leader are varying in importance by each person you ask. Two repeated qualities are “reliability”, and “honesty”. 

 

We need to count on our leaders, in whatever role they play, to provide us with truth and to stand by their commitments under all conditions. 

 

We do not necessarily have to like a leader’s personality although it certainly helps. 

 

In my opinion, any leader should have compassion, be understanding, have patience and listen to advice.  An open mind allows for growth.

 

Are Looks and styles important?  They shouldn’t be.

 

Does a leader need to be respected and admired?  Admiration is not required but respect is crucial.

 

Are there many leaders that fit this criteria? 

 

There are varying levels of leadership. It is hard to generalize an answer. There are those that rise to the top and receive respect which they have earned through their actions.  Those respected leaders have the good of those they lead in mind whatever the leading role may be

.

Are you a leader of a family team, work team, social group, provincial/state, or more? How are your leadership abilities?

 

A good leader listens before making decisions to ensure the best outcome for all involved. Their decisions can have profound effects.  What does good leadership mean to you?

SHIFTING WITH THE WIND

Change is guaranteed.  Growth is a requirement. Resistance creates harder lessons. Keep shifting with the wind of change as required.
The winds of change affect us all.  There are times when we can manipulate the way life is wanting to move us and then there are times when we just have to go with the flow.  One thing is for certain, when the winds of change come, it is time for a shift. 

 

Change can come suddenly or provide us with warnings.  Often, if we are provided with intuitive warning, we can prepare for these changes.  Our current way of life and the familiar routine may no longer suit our soul’s requirements. We may fight the process but over time we recognize that the changes are in fact required.

 

These changes can be internal, external, involve others, or be very personal.  Change can have several different faces, but when it’s time, it’s time! 

 

Do not hold on to the old, outdated ways.  You cannot move forward to the next rung of life if you refuse to let go of the current one you are holding. If you know what must be done, go ahead and do it.  With or without your consent, life will move you in the direction required.  “Allowing” makes that transition much easier and likely much faster.

 

If life is hard right now, know that this too will change. Learn the lesson being taught and allow.

 

Change is guaranteed.  Growth is a requirement. Resistance creates harder lessons. Keep shifting with the wind of change as required.

WINTER SOLSTICE

We have much to celebrate. Be filled with promise, gratitude, love, faith in all that is & inner healing light! Winter Solstice blessings.

The Winter Solstice (Hibernal Solstice) takes place on Sunday, December 21, 2025, 10:02 a.m. EST in the northern hemisphere. December 21 will have the least amount of daylight as the sun will be at its lowest arc in the sky for the northern hemisphere.

 

Shortly after December 21, our precious sunlight will begin to increase again (only by seconds in the beginning.  The additional light will be more noticeable in the evenings.)

 

As much of nature sleeps and the light is limited, we can use the long nights to reflect on our life’s journey. Go inward and plan your intentions for when the energy and the light return.

 

Follow Mother Nature example as she knows best. Many animals are now hibernating or slowing down, resting and waiting for the return of light, for the return of warmth, the return of the energy that nurtures us mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.

 

Our obvious current lesson is patience. Utilize this time wisely.  You can use it to look deep into your shadow self. Bring light to the darkest corners of your being but do not judge what you find. Fill each corner with love and allow spirit to grow.

 

Is it coincidence that during Yule season (the rebirth of light), Christians celebrate the birth of Christ for example (the rebirth of salvation)? This is a time of celebration for many, whether it is Yule, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, Bodhi Day, Saturnalia, and the list goes on.

 

We have much to celebrate. Be filled with promise, with faith in all that is. Be filled with gratitude, with love and with inner healing light! Winter Solstice blessings.

THE EVER-CHANGING BACKDROP OF OUR LIVES

Is there a shift taking hold in your life? 

 

Are you entering a new phase of development? 

 

Quite often after a period of what feels like stagnation, we begin to enter a new phase of progress.  Our focus may shift and we step in a new direction.  It’s time for growth!

 

This may be expected or more often than not, completely unexpected.  We become so wrapped up in the process that we don’t recognize that change and growth are happening.  In most cases, the entry level is subtle, and little seems to shift, but after time, we begin to notice that something seems different, that we are being drawn in a different direction.

 

In many cases, especially in the beginning, it is internal, but then the internal changes reflect out into our world as well. Life looks different. Our outlook seems brighter, colors more vibrant, the wind and temperature more outstanding.  Although the manner of expression seems to be directed towards outside stimuli, in reality we have already changed within.  Again, all things begin within and then are noticed on the outside.

 

Shifts happen when change is required. We are ready even if we don’t feel we are ready.  The ever-changing backdrop of our lives is significant.
The shift does not have to be a total life change (but it can be). Change can manifest itself in small but important relationship changes, occupational transitions, or even changes in our appearance.  Outside manifestation moves in areas that we will recognize and perhaps others will as well, (although at times, only we realize the change that is happening).

 

Prior, we may have been felt we were ready for change or knew that something had to shift. Alternatively, we may not have had any idea that a shift was coming.  One thing is for certain, the changes taking hold, whether barely recognizable or life changing, are in place for a reason. 

 

Shifts happen when change is required.  We are ready even if we don’t feel we are.  The ever-changing backdrop of our lives is significant. We will move forward even when we hold back.  Shifting is part of our life’s purpose, and it takes hold when appropriate.

THE REAL YOU

To understand who you truly are, you would have to go back into your archives, back to where it all started. 

 

No one really knows their beginning, but many believe that this is not the first incarnation of our earthly journey.  Some believe that there have been several other incarnations that have brought us to this current one.

 

Your part in life is not small. You make a difference.  An ocean is uncountable single drops of water. We have work to do.  What is the real you capable of doing?
Who are we, really?

 

What are we capable of doing?

 

We are far more than who we see on the surface.  We are the culmination of every lesson we have experienced. Again, I ask then what are we capable of because of these uncountable lessons?

 

We know we are spiritual in our true nature, a small piece of God (don’t get caught up on the word we chose to use). We can use the word “whole”, “universe” “nature” and the list goes on. It has been said that the whole or God is indivisible.  We then are a part of a whole which cannot be divided.

 

Are we attempting to unite that which can’t be separated? 

 

Perhaps while pondering these questions, you might ask if this life is just about material rewards and accomplishments? 

 

There must be some valuable lessons that are taught through this existence or we would not be so wrapped up in attaining and success, at least for those that are.  What valuable lessons are taught through these gains and losses? 

 

Why have we entered this existence which is so tied to achievement and what does this experience teach us?

 

The real you is spiritual and has much knowledge and insight that can provide great assistance in this life particularly for yourself as you cannot assist others until you help yourself first. 

 

Can we assist humankind on its evolutionary quest as an individual? 

 

Do not, for one moment, think that your part in life is too small to make a difference.  An ocean is made of uncountable single drops of water. Push forward with your pure love and compassion for self and your brothers and sisters. Each and every one of us has work to do.  What is the real you capable of doing if your know that there are no limits?

THE MORNING AFTER

What is the first thing you wake up thinking about after a life-changing day? 

 

How will you move forward? 

 

There are far too many life-changing possibilities so we are not being specific here but, in every case, there is one common requirement, we must face things head on.  Do not try to ignore what takes place.

 

We must move forward without much hesitation as the longer we wait to accept the facts, the harder it likely will be. 

 

Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think even on the morning after. Listen to the little voice inside providing support. Release worry & anxiety.
Facing things head-on can be challenging but it is what must be done.  These events are not punishments; they are life lessons. Most of us will agree that the most tumultuous situations bring forth the greatest lessons, but that can be hard to acknowledge when the emotions are still raw. It takes time to find solutions, to recover and to understand the lesson.

 

Remember, you will overcome even if life is significantly different after the fact. Believe that you can and will.  Without that commitment, it can become very difficult to keep moving forward.  Our belief structure controls our experiences in life regardless of life’s circumstances.

 

Believe in yourself.  Know that this too will pass, and that you are stronger than you thought.  You are stronger than you think even on the morning after. Hear that the little voice inside that provides comfort and support, not the one that brings worry and anxiety. 

 

Have patience; some things take time.  The answer is available, and it will come when you are ready.
