Making Progress, What Is Crucial To Know?

Here’s a short post answering a question I posed a few writings ago. I asked what two things must we know in order to do something? Like take a trip or reach a goal? Most people say things such as, “I have to know where I’m going” and absolutely that is one of the pieces of information we need. What is our target? Pretty darn hard to hit if you don’t know where to aim…
And what else? Some suggest a map. Well, yes but without this other bit of information it’s difficult to find a map!
The other information that is vital is KNOWING where I am starting from – where am I right now? I can’t map out the best, or even a good route to where I want to be, without knowing where I am currently.
It is very rare that anyone comes up with this, although it would appear obvious and zi think the reason may be fear.

This often shows up when you want to set a goal, and, without knowing where you are in relation to where you want to go you won’t know how to get there.

Revealed! “The Strangest Secret” by Earl Nightingale (One of my all-time favorite Nightingale-Conant Audiobook Programs)

I hope this finds you well. I’ve been thinking a lot about the quote, “People are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” –  Abraham Lincoln

And my question is, how happy do you want to be? I mean, really want to be? And, I ask myself the same… Because the truth is, we do get to choose. And choose we do, day in and day out… Choices are constantly before us – and do you realize that the most important one to make is what you will think about and allow yourself to feel?

Do you know, if you and I spent just a few minutes talking, I could pretty accurately predict what tomorrow and next week will be like for you? You might think this is silly, but really THINK about it! Is today at all similar to yesterday, and even more sobering, last year? How could I know that? Because we create our very lives by the PREDOMINANT thoughts and feelings we allow to dominate our minds… If you are worried about your finances, do you notice that all kinds of things happen that eat into the money that you do have? If you are having a great day, do you notice that the rest of your life just seems to be easier?

Sweethearts, lives begin to change when we truly grasp this! It isn’t new, but perhaps it has escaped your awareness. Earl Nightingale told us years ago in, “The Strangest Secret”,  “We become what we think about.” And, a pretty good teacher, some two thousand years ago told us to think on these things, – whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things. [Philippians 4:8]

I don’t know, maybe some smart advice…

I’ve decided today to think on all the incredible good there is around me and in the world… And, oh by-the-way, what we put our attention, energy, and focus on — well, as it turns out, it all expands!

I wish you a blessed and remarkable day!

Love and blessings,

Cindy

The Academy Awards- Cindy Brett & "The Secret" of "The Law of Attraction"

Hi! Welcome, I hope you are attracting a day that you love… However, if you are, or not – here is a real life example of a shift you can make today.

Did you happen to watch the Academy Awards this past Sunday night? I hope you saw the part where composer, Michael Giacchino won for best original score for the movie, “Up”. Besides getting to hear a fun and upbeat melody, you would have heard Michael’s acceptance speech. He said he was always encouraged by his family to do what he loves, and that nobody ever told him what he was doing wasn’t important.

Wow! Think about that. Now, if you are a parent, here lies some excellent parenting advice… Encourage your children! Believe in them, and, perhaps even more importantly – teach them to believe in themselves! Be their biggest fan and help them find, and pursue, what they naturally love. Children who feel loved and encouraged will gravitate toward their interests and will discover great passion and fulfillment from following that path.

But, what if you have mostly been discouraged and told you were wasting time in pursuit of what you love and find to be interesting, even fascinating? Then, NOW is the time to seek people who will encourage you, who will believe in you and who will hold that space for you, at least until you can believe in yourself! We ALL need this. It is a NEED, not a desire. In Tony Robbins’ “Ultimate Relationship” Course, we are told that all humans have 6 Basic Needs, and they are: Certainty, Variety, Love and Connection, Significance, Growth, and Contribution. We may have these needs in a different order, but we all have them. Feeling significant is important, and it is crucial to have a person, or people, who will champion us on to our unique greatness, so that we grow and feel we are making a valuable contribution in life.

Dear Friends, find that someone. Perhaps it’s a parent, a sibling, your mate, your best friend, or maybe it’s a coach. Every successful person I know has some type of coach. This fact can actually give us some very useful information. In the arena of achievement and success we may need someone who can, and will, be a bit more objective than those we love most. Someone who will honestly help us access our strengths and lesser strengths; thereby affording us the opportunity to clearly move in the direction of our dreams…

There are 2 absolutes we all must have in order to even begin any trip. Do you know what they are? THINK about it and please come back soon. I’m interested to know what you think the answers are, and it’s a great conversation for my next post!

Blessings and love,
Cindy

Finding Solutions Working With the Law of Attraction

Peace Is A State of Mind

If you look around, you can see that our world is one of duality. We have a hot and a cold, an inside and an outside, an up and a down, a dark and a ______. I think you get the idea… But what you may not realize is that what I am referring to is a universal law. And that these Universal Laws are just as exact as the natural laws with which we are familiar? For instance, we know that anyone who shoves their finger into an electrical outlet is going to get zapped, right? It can be the most “evil” of characters or it can be a precious toddler – either one is going to get a shock. Well, do you know that within the universal laws, one exists called the Law of Opposites which explains the duality I mentioned? For every problem there is a solution! The thing is, most of us have been taught to stay focused on the problem – and that’s, well, the problem! We must learn to identify the problem, yes, and then move all of our attention to seeing its solution. Now, when we understand this law, we KNOW that because the problem exists, the solution MUST exist as well — BY LAW! We just have to find it. And once we really understand, and integrate the Laws, we know to stay with the process until the Law gives us the answer. You see, the universe’s currency is ideas and if we ask for an answer, we will receive it. But, only if we refuse to give up! Einstein said, “It isn’t that I’m so much smarter than everyone else, it’s just that I stay with the problem longer.” Excellent question to ask of yourself – how LONG am I willing to seek a solution to my current challenge? Seek – and you WILL find!

This is a site about solutions. This is a site about greater peace, happiness and anything else I can think of that will help you, and me, and anyone who is willing to shift a little bit, be a kinder, better person. For when we are kinder, we are happier, and when we are happier, well, peace is close behind.

Please come back and I will continue to share what I am fortunate to have studied and now teach. I have some stories you may relate to, stories which may help you as they have helped me move from a life of quiet desperation and chaos into a life of greater happiness and serenity. It’s possible. I promise. Well, that’s my story, uh huh, and I’m stickin’ to it!

Welcome! You're in the right place… Cindy Brett Business Coach Louisville KY

  • Posted by Cindy Brett on February 27, 2010 at 10:02 pm

Hello! I am very happy you are visiting my blog and I hope you are well. If you are stressed, struggling or stuck in any way (unless you are lodged under a piece of very heavy furniture), I am almost certain this blog will help. Truly, the only variable is you, and your willingness to be open to some (new) information. But heck, you’re here, so why not read on? The only thing you are trading is some time – time that you may otherwise use to remain, or be more stressed… And what sense does that make?

My name is Cindy Brett, and I am a LifeSuccess Consultant licensed with Bob Proctor, well known as one of the speakers in the movie, “The Secret”. You can visit my site by going to www.cindybrett.com to find out I am a real, legitimate person – and, for now, that’s enough about me…

The primary reason for this blog is to offer hope in a time when many people seem to be struggling to find any. I hear on a near daily basis, “these are tough times.” But are they? If the times are tough, then logically, wouldn’t the times be tough for everyone? I mean, think about it, really think about what I am saying here. I, and many, many people I know, would say otherwise, for we know that never, at any other time, is it more possible to to be happier, healthier, or wealthier than when we seem to be surrounded by problems. Why? Because lots of people need solutions! Are you a problem finder? GREAT, then you can be a solution finder, too! If you can see a problem you are indeed poised for success.

I hope you’ll come back soon to see what I mean. Remember, growth is necessary- we live in an evolving world- stress and anxiety, well, it turns out, they’re optional! Now, that’s good news. So, that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it!

What are you doing – this moment – to be happy?

“Happiness is to be found along the way, not at the end of the road, for then the journey is over and it is too late. Today, this hour, this minute is the day, the hour, the minute for each of us to sense the fact that life is good, with all of its trials and troubles, and perhaps more interesting because of them.”

Robert R. Updegraff
Author of “Be Thankful For Your Troubles”

Life is good! Find something, anything, big or small to be grateful about. Do you have a home? Water to drink? Eyes to see? Food to eat? Clothes, a friend, family, a job, some money, a car, air to breathe? Choose something that you love or enjoy and really think about it – feel the feelings it brings up in you. This brings attention to your body and gets you out of your head… If you’ll practice just this simple act of feeling, you will find much to be appreciative and happy about. You have everything to gain…

Be well.

Love, Cindy

WHAT IF GOD REALLY MEANS IT?

Hello! I know it seems I fell into a black hole or something. I apologize for the silence on my end…

The training seminar I hosted with best-selling author, Michael Losier, was a huge success! Everyone loved him and his teaching style and learned about the Law of Attraction in ways that they could employ immediately. As that was my goal, I am thrilled to have contributed to the happiness and growth of everyone who attended. For all of you who participated in any way, THANK YOU! May you be blessed far beyond what you have yet imagined.

Today I’d like to share what I do to begin my day. I have developed the habit of what some call, “daily disciplines”. It’s a fabulous way to create a day that supports me in growth and my on-going quest for deeper tranquility and happiness. What I do first is choose a quote, a scripture or affirmation that speaks to me and I write it out 15 times. As I write, I contemplate what it means — I really “think” about what I am writing…

This morning, Job22:28 attracted my attention and so I wrote, “Thou shalt decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee, and light shall shine upon thy ways.” “Thou shalt decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee, and light shall shine upon thy ways”…   I had written it about 1/3 of the way when the thought occurred to me — “wow! this is true. I am being told that God really does mean I can have whatever I decide, or decree… I decree it, and God establishes it, AND, then — he pretty much lights my path so that I may find my way!”   That’s amazing! Only really, it’s not. What’s amazing is that so many live their lives in utter desperation — when with some shifts in their beliefs and habits, they can literally have it all!

We are encouraged, strongly, to “seek ye first the kingdom and ALL of these things shall be added unto you”. What is the kingdom, though? I believe the kingdom is the very nature of God. So, what is God’s nature? One word tells it all — L-O-V-E. That’s it, LOVE. Love yourself, love your neighbor, love your home, love your work, love your finances, love your body, love your health … Love it all.  Abundantly – love – it – all!   Herein lies what we ALL seek. Whether it’s better health, better relationships, more fulfilling work, more money — the “it” is covered. Merely, put your attention, energy and focus on loving what you have now and the improvements begin!

Check it out for yourself rather than take my word or anyone else’s. Set out to disprove it if you like.    I’m simply encouraging you to truly THINK, and then think again and again. Because the more you think about things, the more the things reveal themselves to you and this is where the fun lies. Whatever you put your attention, energy and focus on will expand. So think about what it is you DESIRE to experience. And think about it to the exclusion of all else. When the doubt and worries come, consider doubting them for a change…  Refocus on what you want. Dare to do this. –  Because maybe, just maybe God DID mean what he said. And, cooler than that, –  he still does!

I wish you a glorious day!

Love, Cindy

How Are YOU Doing? Spring is a great time for goal setting with your business coach!

Dear Friends,

Spring is a great time for goal setting with your business coach

Spring is a great time for goal setting with your business coach

Spring, glorious Spring is just around the corner! Are you allowing yourself to get excited about the magnificent approach of Spring? As I watch the blossoms begin to pop through the soil, the buds open on the trees, and the birds, bunnies and squirrels play and scurry about, I am reminded of the re-emergence of Life Itself. Our Universe is one of order, and I find that both lovely and reassuring! I KNOW that Winter precedes Spring, and Spring will usher in Summer, and Summer will relax into Fall, and Fall will settle into Winter as the earth, once again replenishes itself for the, well, we established that already…

For me, there is comfort in the promise of order in my life. However, this was not always so. I did not understand that I live in an orderly universe, and that Nature is showing me one of the many Universal Laws which most people do not understand. And, like many others, I was in resistance to something much bigger than me, and so as I disallowed and resisted Life Itself… Well, let’s just say that didn’t work out so well! Anybody able to relate? Okay, then, I guess it’s just me.

Now, you may think this is unimportant, and I assure you the opposite holds the truth! Just as there are natural laws that govern us and our wellbeing, there are Universal Laws that are in place, working all the time, which when understood, can and will deliver lives that most have not dared to imagine.

We all know there is a law governing electricity. We don’t have to understand the law to still be affected by it, right? If I put my finger into a wall socket – ouch! I’m GOING to receive a shock. Lots of children have found out, through direct experience, that this law affected them the exact same way it would affect me who knows about it and elected to test it anyway. The law is no respecter of persons. Why? Because it is a law! It just is. I can debate it, deny it, get angry about it – and still – if I test it, I’m going to experience the result of an uncomfortable, ah, current passing through my body.

Well, Friends, there is also a Law of Order. And most of us operate in direct opposition to this law. And then we wonder why Life is so hard. Why the other guy seems to get all the breaks? Why Life isn’t fair. The truth is, Life is amazingly fair. It couldn’t be any more fair! I believe this is why It is set up as Law, so that it is fair no matter your nationality, your race, your size, or anything else we perceive as differences. Whether you, your mate, me, or a criminal turn on a light switch, provided there is electricity, the light will come on! No matter which of us jumps from a high place, we will fall down. We don’t think, “well, I wonder if I will fall up this time?” No, because we have some understanding of gravity, and regardless of how much we know about it, we will still drop rather quickly, should we test the law.

Now, why is this really great news? Because, almost as easily as I have lived in resistance to this Law, once I begin to understand it, I can live in harmony with it! And living in harmony is the key. What does it mean though? It means become LIKE it. For instance, I begin to get my life, and me – in order. I clean up my space, I create some sense of routine in my life. I go to bed around the same time most nights, I arise at the same time in the mornings, I set aside quiet time during the day, in one particular space, to contemplate or meditate on something greater than my challenges. I can keep my car clean and orderly. I don’t have to be rigid; however, to be in harmony with a vital law, I do need to be, well, orderly! The reason this is set up for us as a law, is that we all function much better with order. We are calmer, more confident, relaxed and prepared to handle Life, as it happens. We are able to respond rather than react. It’s a gentler, more productive and tranquil life. And the calmer I am, the more open I am to notice what is all around me – to bless me. Like happiness, beauty, serenity, and, yes, new opportunities and possibilities!

I have learned that God, the Universe, whatever name you are comfortable with – loves order! The Universe has done a pretty good job of keeping the planets, sun, moon and stars from colliding, using some kind of order, so I’ve decided to join forces with That. The Universe is all Intelligence. I just figure if God is willing to help me, by teaching me to live within these laws, well then, I’m in! I’m going to start swimming WITH the current, I’ve done the other for way too long. I LOVE the idea of kicking back for a change, and yes, common as it may sound, go with the flow!

Be well!

Love, Cindy
