Listen to the Episode Here (09:46)
Today’s Topic we will discuss practical ways you can change your thoughts, activities and perspective based on a blog article that I love from Wayne Dyer.
But first…Quote of the Day
Tony Robbin, “What makes people feel alive is having a meaning beyond Yourself.”
Interesting quote because we have discussed several times that it’s not the events in life that determine our experience. Its the “meaning” we give events that determines that experience…So, it also goes with reason that having meaning outside yourself will also give added meaning to your life.
13 Habits to Create a Life You Love…Your BEST LIFE
Dr Dyer talks about a “realm” or place thats outside your normal level of consciousness that allows you the opportunity to visualize and create what you want in your life. He talks about how when you get to the “realization” of this place and your innate ability to access this level of consciousness in your life, you truly become empowered.
Maybe you’ve experienced this in your life or maybe you haven’t, but I have certainly learned and come to the conclusion in my life that you can access energy, influence and the power greater than yourself to truly impact and shape your life.
And, whether you believe in yourself (and your abilities) or believe in powers greater than yourself, it doesn’t change whether they are true or not. They are and there are ways to truly tap into greatness inside of you that you haven’t discovered yet. I can say this because no matter where you are in life, you are always capable of more…we all are.
You simply have to make the decision to believe that you are not alone and that you have greatness inside you. Plus, you have to come to a point in your life that you realize that faith in something (outside yourself) will help you to achieve greatness. If you’ll simply exercise some faith and become consistent in your daily rituals, it will lead you to a greater version of yourself and the life your were meant to live…an amazing life.
So, I want to run through the 13 Habits that Wayne Dyer outlines that can assist you in Your Perspective, Your Thoughts, and Your Daily Practices…and Ultimately help you Manifest and Create a Life you Love.
Habit 1: Believe You Are an Infinite Spiritual Being Having a Temporary Human Experience
-This is a concept that I truly love. Rather than thinking we are Human Beings that are having a Human Experience, Dyer suggests that we are much much more. He suggests that we are Spiritual Beings (more than we can imagine) that are having a temporary Human Experience. The key here is to understand and belief that you are not your situation. You are not just limited to the ego, life and struggles that you experience every day. This is a truly empowering concept when you can do this.
Habit 2: Become the Observer of Your Thoughts
-You’ve heard me (and others) say over and over again that you become what you think about the most. That is why I like this Habit so much. You have to become a Master at monitoring your thoughts and feelings. You must do this, so you can quickly adapt and deal with negative or disempowering thoughts. But, also so you can stay on track with what you truly desire. Staying laser focused is a key to getting with you want…this happens when you Observe and Direct Your Thoughts.
Habit 3: Release Your Imagination from Current Limiting Circumstances
-It is so important that you disconnect your circumstances from your identity. You are not your story. You are not limited to the resources and experience that you currently have. You need to accept your situation in life is exactly that…”a temporary situation in life”. You are the one that is capable of overcoming where you are and growing past it. When you believe that 1)you are not your story, and 2)that you are determined to overcome whatever it is you are facing…then, you have already won. Open up your mind and your imagination to the possibilities.
Habit 4: See Your Wish as Already Accomplished
-Learn to visualize yourself as already accomplishing your goals. This isn’t easy but the subsconscious mind doesn’t really separate the difference in what is real and not real like your conscious mind does. When you can learn to image that your goals and dreams (wishes) are already done…then your mind will go to work finding ways to make it happen. RAS
Habit 5: Believe in Your Own Divine Power
-Dyer would often say something I really appreciate and try to recognize in my daily life…”It is my belief that you are never given the power to dream without the equivalent power to manifest that dream and make it your physical reality.” He like many great spiritual leaders encourage us to see ourselves at unlimited and know that we are capable of great things.
Habit 6: Remain Independent of the Good Opinion of Other People
-It is so important in today’s world to clarify what you want and picture the version of yourself you wish to attain. But it is equally important to have faith in yourself and your intentions and not get caught up in the opinions of others. Allowing these distractions will only keep you from moving forward in life and creating the best version of yourself, because you will constantly be doing things for the wrong reasons.
