Would You Stop?

The Facts: A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousands of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist.  Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk turning his head all the time. This action was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on. In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded, nor was there any recognition. The Secret revealed: No one knew this but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the top musicians in the world. He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written,with a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theater in Boston and the seats average $100. This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste and priorities of people. The arisen Questions: in a commonplace environment at an inappropriate hour: Do we perceive beauty? Do we stop to appreciate it ? Do we recognize the talent in an unexpected context?   The Conclusion(s): One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing?  If you want to know more about my coaching, for Workshops, Talks and Seminars: edel@eomcoaching.co.uk , also check out my Linkedin, Facebook, Twitter. www.eomcoaching.co.uk  To keep up to date with my blogs please leave your details above, any questions you would like to ask please do and I will do my best to answer them.

A Journey……

I want to share with you a journey I had recently…

I went to a 4 day event in London, England. These were long 11hr days, where I left home at 6.30am and only returned around 8pm!

On the last day, I left same time and went for the bus to take me to the station. It seemed to take forever and I wondered if I had missed it.

Suddenly a car came by and stopped, the driver told me there had been a fire further down the road and the Police had stopped all traffic.

Great! Now I live in a village, which has 1 bus…that one! So undeterred I started to walk the 3 miles to the nearest train station. When I arrived at the station, what did I find? The station was closed for engineering works!

Ok, this is testing! I walked another mile to get to a main road and bus routes. It had taken me 2 hours to walk 4 miles.

The reason I wanted to share this with you…was what I learnt from it.

Firstly, the situation was engineered by 1 of 2 things. Firstly I had placed the thought in my mind at an earlier time and it just manifested, secondly the hysteria factor; this is where a lot of people hold a thought process in their minds, like in times of recession…this is down to mass conscious thinking on a scare factor…it creates manifestation! Locals worrying their hall would be set alight by kids …

So, one way or another, these events had manifested. I had 2 choices:

1. To give up and go home
2. To find the best feeling thought of this situation

You might wonder how I would find the best feeling thought in this situation. Well, let me tell you how:

I took the walk to the train station as an opportunity to really appreciate everything around me. The blue sky, trees just in bud…some with petals bursting forth.

I appreciated the beautiful warm spring air; I saw ducks on a pond…families, mother and father sitting together waiting for their eggs to hatch. Beautiful!

Once at the station and finding it closed, I decided to carry on my appreciation as I walked the final mile.

Now, this walk took me down a road and past a house I used to live in.

That time was one of the worst times in my life and this was the first time I had past this house in 13 years! Coincidence?

I acknowledged my morning journey and that it had brought me down this road…I then appreciated my life journey.

From such a dark and challenging time that led to the wonderfully unfolding, constantly evolving life today. It really made me think, made me appreciate, made me grateful.

Why did these events happen?

Why did I have these experiences?

I always believe we have conscious coincidences and it is our job to synchronise with these coincidences.

I could have seen this journey as a disaster and then caused this to get into my thought process and have further manifestations.

Instead I chose to find the best place, the best feeling thought out of this situation. I then find by raising my vibration I call to me coincidences that I then become aware of, acknowledge and use or learn from.

What happened on your last journey…?

Career success is your creation

In stepping out to train, develop or discover your successful career, there are a few strategies I would like to share with you in the attraction process.

We are all aware that any manifestation must start with a thought…as creation first comes as thought and second as creation into the physical.

From this, emotion raises the vibration as the reality of the desire is visualised.

Actions then taken to follow coincidences provided by the Universe, which brings synchronicity…vibrational alignment…manifestation.

In the visualisation of your desired success, it is imperative to have a plan of action. Unless you can focus on your desired outcome, with specific steps to put in place to achieve the result; the Universe will take all your random thoughts and deliver random coincidences.

You will then spend valuable time trying these out, realising they will not get you to your goal and keep moving in an undetermined direction.

Use inspiration from successful people you admire or follow, look at their biographies, see where they came from.

What challenges did they overcome?  

What thought process did they follow to create success?

Who did they listen to if anyone, when did the fire of their creative passion really burst forth?

Start mixing with like minded people or those already working in the career field you wish to be successful in. The more exposure that you have around similar vibrational energy, will allow your thought process to accept this as the ‘norm’ and the Universe will start attracting the same to you.

‘Definiteness of purpose’, that fabulous phrase used by Napoleon Hill. This refers to knowing what you want to achieve and keeping your focus firmly on the final goal and not allowing anything to influence your decision on obtaining success.

Having complete belief in your ability to succeed, no matter how many challenges come into your experience.

Challenges are merely showing us contrast, that we are not aligned to our higher energy.

Definiteness of purpose, is not giving up…is being resilient…is trying again and again, with the absolute knowledge and belief that your thought process is so resolute in the creation of your success. The Universe then puts all components in place for your career alignment.

Your task is to find the best feeling, through each coincidence you synchronise with, to enjoy each and every experience while being aware you are creating your now…your reality.

Stress – The Silent Killer

How many of you live your days in stress? Worrying about getting to work on time, whether your work will be good enough, what others think of you, whether you will get all the bills paid?

Stress is literally a killer. It has been scientifically acknowledged that prolonged stress affects the human body, right to the DNA.

Stress is also the clearest indicator of resistance. Prolonged levels of stress, being a conscious and repeated thought, manifests itself as illness within the body; from skin conditions, hair loss, cold, flu, heart attacks and even to cancer.

All of this does NOT have to be the case people!

You are in this life experience to find the best feelings, to create the best experiences that bring you total joy, happiness and love.

Living to your ultimate alignment…is stress free! I know which one I choose!

It may appear daunting moving away from worrying how to make ends meet and this is where it all went off track.

You see, the ‘how’ it all comes together is not your job. Your job is to create, to get each and every desire into your thought process.

Love the thoughts of everything you create, knowing it IS manifesting. The Universe takes care of the ‘how’ it comes to you.

With your thoughts put out there, your next step is to appreciate what you have going for you right now. To step up your gratitude for not only what is the current experience but gratitude for those new desires as if they are already with you…get in the now.

As you practice this process, you are automatically raising your energy vibration…higher energy…higher emotion…less stress.

Your aim is to be in such a place of appreciation and gratitude that the only thoughts and feelings coming into your mind fill you with excitement, joy and happiness. From this place you let go of all resistance, allow manifestation of all desires and have everything flowing easily and effortlessly to you.

And stress? Stress is history!

God, you’re Amazing!

How often do you get told that you are amazing? Many times

or not often?

If not, why not! So many people live their lives holding who they truly are inside themselves and never letting it see the light of day.

The lively, exciting, unstoppable you, is like a seed sown…if left in the dark it will wither and die. By keeping all that you are in the dark, YOU will die.

Not your physical body

Not the you going through the daily motions

Not the you dressing because someone else says that’s what you look good in

Not the you living your life because someone else says that’s the way you should live it….

Your dreams will die

Your strength and courage will die

Your creative energy will die

Your essence will die

Answer me this? How can you NOT be exciting, unpredictable, creative, wild and passionate?

This is who you ARE!

You came into your body to have all the life experiences possible…

You are immortal

Part of the whole

Divine Energy

God

Whatever you term as the creator of all things – that has limitless power, love and creativity…you are one and the same.

Every person on this earth knows their focus of worship is divine in nature…an amazing power.

So, if ‘God’ is amazing…who are you NOT to be too?

You are Never Alone

So many people live in the belief they are alone in their struggles and successes but this could not be further from the truth.

Now I don’t want to go all heavy and philosophical on you but once you realise you are part of an unstoppable, ever present stream of conscious energy, that everyone and everything on this planet, solar system, Universe etc is the sum of the parts of the complete whole, how can you possibly ever feel alone?

Understanding why as energy beings we chose to experience separation shows us the clarity of where we all emerged from, the unity, the oneness. As we strive to connect with our ‘higher’ selves, understanding we are part of the Universal energy, we begin to see that as the ‘infinite’ wholeness of energy that we were, there was nothing but completeness, there was no other state of being.

In order for Energy to know ‘itself’ and why it was magnificent and total love, it had to know what it wasn’t first, in order to experience the contrast.

It is by your life experiences and waking up your energy connection that you realise why you came into your physical body. Not to live in struggle, not to scrimp and scrap but to experience fulfilment, to create experiences of joy, happiness, excitement and love. So that the energy being you truly are can know and experience this, can finally be aware that feelings of being lost, being alone are just a human state of mind and that they show the contrast of what you really are, what you are meant to be, connected, aligned, inseparable to the completeness of energy.

It’s like looking at little trickles of water and working back, you find the brooks, then the streams, then the rivers, then the oceans. Our experiences as single human beings are the little trickles but they are all still connected to the ocean, the energy, the ultimate love.

How Can We Love Others,If We Don’t Love Ourselves?

When so many of us search for the perfect relationship and wonder why they cannot find the perfect mate, why they can’t make a relationship succeed, yet they give so little time to finding themselves first.

In order for us to have a truly loving relationship, we first need to love ourselves. So many relationships are entered into through lack, hoping the other person will fulfil our desire to be happy, to fill our needs in confidence, security and love.

Some even expect their partners to live their life for them but this goes against the reason we have this life experience. As the creators of our OWN reality, we are here to create our experience, not others. We are not here to live other people’s lives for them, nor be forced to ‘conform’ within a relationship to what the other person wants.

Until we each become totally in alignment with whom we really are, relationships will always be attracted from lack.

To find completeness in you, understanding that it is not about loving others to be loved, it is about loving yourself, accepting that you are a magnificent, powerful, loving being. That you are not whole through being a ‘part’ with someone else; but that you are whole because you are all parts to you.

So many people go into relationships to find themselves and yet they end up losing themselves, their identity to the pleasing of the other person.

Give yourself time to find YOU, get your vibration, energy up to speed and in alignment. Look at all the things you have achieved as you, be aware of all the experiences you want to have and seek to attract the energy in a person that allows you to be who you are.

Relationships should be a wondrous journey two people have together but for themselves, by keeping their identity, individuality and reality and allowing the partner theirs, by embarking on the life experiences together and allowing each other to grow individually will allow the growth and harmony of the relationship.

Be Careful What You Think About!

That isn’t to say you must watch and monitor every thought that comes into your head (though for specific manifestations, this could be useful!) but start becoming consciously aware of what you are thinking.

How often have you been thinking?

‘I don’t understand . . .’

‘I don’t want . . .’

‘I’m frustrated that . . .’

‘I hate my . . .’

‘I can’t do that . . .’

‘I’m stressed out . . .’

‘I’m worried that . . .’

‘I should be able to . . . but I can’t . . .’

‘Why does this always happen to me?’

The Law of Attraction is very literal and only targets your actual thoughts and emotions, so when you say ‘Why are bad things happening to me?’ the Universe hears ‘bad things’ and gives you more of it, if you think ‘ I got no money coming in’ the Universe gives you ‘no money’. Can you see a pattern emerging?

In all the studies in Quantum Physics some amazing findings have come to light. In the study of Quantum Particles (these are the smallest known observable units of matter) scientists found that the results mirrored the thoughts of the person conducting the experiment! If the scientist ‘predicted’ the particles would behave in a certain way, they did but when they ran the same experiment and ‘predicted’ the particles would behave in another way…they did. The particles were not reacting to the environment of the experiment but to the THOUGHT pattern of the scientists.

As we are the ‘scientists’ in our own life experiment; how are we DAILY affecting energy particles around us? When we are the creators of our own reality, our world AND our experiences, what thoughts are you going to choose to make the changes and create your success?

Here are some examples of how to change a thought:

“I want to get out of debt” think “I am earning amazing amounts of money”

“I hate my boss” think “I look forward to the appreciation that is coming to me”

“I don’t understand why my partner is so lazy” think “I love it when we work together and get things done”

“I’m stressed about not being good enough at work” think “I always create amazing results in every aspect of my job”

“I’m worried I keep getting sick” think “I experience amazing health and well being daily”

This also applies very much to money. Heard of ‘The rich get richer while the poor get poorer’? Law of Attraction in action! Those in wealth have money, they relax because everything is taken care of and often they think about how to best use their money and hence they attract more money. The poor on the other hand keep in their thoughts the present lack of money which causes a contraction of energy in the worrying and that also attracts more lack into their lives. Staggeringly, 96% of the world’s wealth is being earned by just 1% of the population!

So, what are you thinking right now?

Choosing you best feeling thought

In order to know your best feeling thought, you first need to be able to understand when you are ‘allowing’ and when you are ‘resisting’.

The happier you are the more you allow of who you really are and what you really want to be attracted to you. The unhappier you are, the more you are resisting attracting what you really want and who you really are, on top of that you end up attracting all the events and people you do not want in your experience!

So, in order to be allowing what you have been asking for you need to be letting in the good feelings, the natural well being and the stuff that makes you happy.

It sometimes confuses people when you mention ‘to allow’ and they imagine this to mean, just accepting and putting up with what is not wanted. This is wrong! Allowing is finding the things that feel good by finding the thoughts that feel good and focusing your attention on those until they become the dominant thoughts in your mind, they become your best feeling thoughts.

As you learn to identify who and what allows you to have and maintain those good feeling thoughts, you might find that there are those who have come into your experience before or those you ‘let’ stay in your experience, who will in fact not be causing you good feeling thoughts because their values are not aligned to yours. When this happens and you maintain your best feeling thoughts, you will find gradually those people drift from your experience because they are not a vibrational match to your feelings.

Then you begin to see how much you really are the creator of your own reality!
