Shatter the Glass Ceiling!

Generally what you believe to be true, becomes truth but what if somewhere embedded deep in that belief is a limit of some sort? What if there is a ceiling that stops you from living to your full potential? You may not even realize there is a limit because you see your dream so clearly. If you can see it but can’t figure out why you can’t get there you could call it a glass ceiling. The interesting thing about a glass ceiling is that you can see through and beyond it!

Throughout history dreamers have shattered the limits of what they were told to believe and have not only forged a new path for themselves but for the world  as well. All of our greatest politicians, inventors, scientists, sports legends, artists & performers disregarded the limits placed upon them either by themselves or by society.

They had a vision and had to let go of any doubt or thought that they couldn’t make a difference or achieve their dream. They have made what was once thought of as impossible, possible by believing in themselves, truth and justice. By believing against all odds and what others told them they could go beyond the limits and create great change not only for themselves but for others.

Can you imagine if Rosa Parks or Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. had a limiting belief and lived their lives based on the status quo? Or if Michael Jordan had the belief he was a failure because he failed so many times…or if Michelangelo thought that painting a fresco on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel was impossible.

I could go on and on with examples but you really want to know what this has to do with you don’t you? 🙂 Limiting beliefs energetically STOP you from moving forward. In many instances they create self sabotage in the sense that you defeat yourself before you even try. What you believe can help move you forward or stop you dead in your tracks! Many times you are not even aware of a limiting belief until you go looking for it.

If there is something you deeply desire in your life, whatever it is, take time to examine what you believe about it. Take time to look at what you believe about yourself! If there is something you think needs to happen before you move forward, that’s a limit! If you don’t think you are good enough, slim enough or valuable enough, THAT IS A LIMIT!

Sometimes it is as simple as raising the bar for how much you can have in your life. When you believe without any doubt that you can have it (or achieve it), that you deserve it, and your worthy of receiving it, you begin to clear the limits placed upon you. When you stop believing and worrying about what everyone else thinks about you and begin living your best you, the limits clear.

Dream your Impossible Dream, clear the limits held in your beliefs, shatter the glass ceiling! Go beyond what you believe to be true, believe in YOU and reach for the stars! You are worthy! You deserve it! There’s nothing that can hold you back but what you believe you can achieve!~Shine Your Light Debbie

Immediate Gratification?

In this time of fast foods, bigger better and faster I started to wonder what role  immediate gratification has played. You all know what I’m referring to and it’s interesting to look at in terms of creating change in your life.

We want the newest styles, gadgets & toys,  better cars and technology that works at the touch of a button. There is an expectation that the economy can be ‘fixed’ overnight. If we join a WEIGHT LOSS program we expect like magic to lose the excess pounds by tomorrow morning yet if we see something that looks really yummy we eat it to gratify our taste buds on the spot.

People wait in line to be the first ones to get that new cool item using credit cards without a thought about paying for it in the future. Think on that for a moment. If you really want something you go out and get it. OK there might be a passing thought that crosses your mind but by golly you do it anyway!

Our society has indeed become one of immediate gratification whether it is to make us feel better or to take our attention off our day-to-day troubles. Certainly there are things that will truly make life easier and we all want those but the challenge comes in when we not only want those things but we want them TODAY….NOW.

We have gotten used to getting what we want when we want it yet in a not so distant past, we had to make our own clothes and grow our own food. We waited patiently for the seeds we planted to grow. There is no possible way to rush a seedlings growth to HARVEST.  We were all responsible for the essentials we needed. To be sure I’m not saying we should go back to that time! The point is we had no choice but to be patient and trust the process. 🙂

The reason I bring this up is for you to take a moment to look at what you expect from your meditation practice and journey into awareness. Are you seeking immediate gratification? Do you meditate for a few days then give up or move on to the next thing because you don’t notice monumental changes?

In spirit there is no time or space. Things can and do happen instantly! That’s the good news. 🙂 The next part is bringing those spiritual changes into the body and making it real. Although everything begins with your ‘thoughts’ and focus the physical body exists in time and space. It takes time for those changes to manifest on the physical plane.

Becoming conscious of where your energy is and bringing YOU back to YOU is the first step toward creating the change that you seek. It is a continual process in which you grow and expand your awareness. Honor and trust that a process is indeed taking place whether you see it instantly or not.

On any journey it might be best to check immediate gratification at the door. If you question big changes are actually taking place notice the small details. Know that even the smallest change now can shape your future in ways you can’t even begin to imagine!….Shine Your Light!~Debbie
