My Favorite Self-Help Stuff

Hello everybody.

I can’t believe it’s been this long since I have last posted something. Been swamped at work, and by some other stuff. But…

This provided me with a great opportunity to test out a series of tools I’ve assembled to raise my spirits and my vibrations…

Ever since The Secret became part of popular culture and was featured on Oprah, we all know about the importance of keeping those vibes sky high. Like Abraham (see www.abraham-hicks.com) says, “Nothing is as important as that you feel good.”

Now that can make us a bit paranoid, can’t it? We don’t always feel good. So does that mean we draw bad stuff when we feel bad? Well, yes. That’s exactly what it means.

Ever had one of those days? You get up on the wrong side of the bed, and things go downhill from there. The reverse is also true. Some days you’re just thrilled to get out of bed and on with your day, and things just fall into place. People are nice to you, parking spaces open up right where you need them, and you find $20 bills all over the place (or at least pennies or quarters).

So there is a great deal of benefit to doing what it takes to make ourselves feel good. And it’s not nearly as hard as it might seem.

I’m talking about some of that in my new mini series on Roger’s Pie Theory of Energy (see below). But there are other techniques I’m using and I’ll be writing about those in more detail right here!

Meanwhile, here’s a quick one (from Abraham): whenever I find myself wallowing in self-pity or indulge my inner worrywart (say the challenges seem a bit too daunting, again) I stop myself and ask: What DO I want? And so instead of worrying about bills and other things I don’t want, I’m rejoicing in the additional income I would like and how happy I would be at the extra dollars and checks that flow into my life. Or something like that. And maybe I do little session of appreciating everything worth appreciating, starting with the balmy air (if applicable) or my friends or the smooth flavor and soothing warmth of my coffee etc.

Now when I say, whenever I feel bad, that’s an overstatement. I don’t always remember to do that immediately.

The key to the entire arsenal of techniques is this: to remember to use them. I’m working on that, and I’m happy to report that I’m getting better. I remember much more quickly, and my bouts of wallowing or worrying are already much shorter than they used to be.

Next time, I’ll write about the long version (more detailed, much more powerful) of my favorite thought management technique that I use to get those vibes way up.

Have a wonderful day!

Hello Dear Reader,

Welcome to my shiny new favorite self-help blog! I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do…

I’m so excited that I finally got this blog set up! I’ve been meaning to do this for a good long while, and now, finally, here it is!

Why did I want to have a blog? Doesn’t everybody have one? Just kidding.

Well, I guess I’m a bit of a self-help junkie and as I have accumulated info that helped me on my personal path of growth, I’ve shared it with friends, some of whom seem to feel like I’m a walking encyclopedia of the stuff. A very biased walking encyclopedia.

Biased how, you may wonder… I’m a big fan of self-empowerment! Kind of like Oprah’s slogan of “live your best life.” Or, like Abraham puts it: “Nothing is as important as that I/you feel good.” And the cool thing is that it works!

So what I’ll be doing here is writing little blurbs on all sorts of resources I’ve found that I really like. I mean REALLY like!!! With my biased but helpful (I like to think) commentary. And links to share with anyone who wants to give them a whirl.

So there you have it. Any questions?

Here’s one: who the heck is writing this blog.

Well, I was going to use a nom de plume, also known as pen name, because I’d like to remain anonymous for the time being. But then I couldn’t send my friends to this thing, and even if they found it they wouldn’t know it was mine. And what would be the fun in that?

So I’m going to use my real name, sort of.

Coming up within the next day or so: my first post on a favorite self-help tool.

Stay tuned and have a wonderful day!

Elisabeth, the self-help guru wannabe.
