GET UNSTUCK AND GET GOING

We all have a little "procrastinator" in us-- putting off those things we just don't want to do. But what about the things we DO want to get done and yet, we still find ourselves not doing them.

If that sounds like you, perhaps it's time to get unstuck. Here are 10 things you can do to encourage positive growth:

1. Deciding To Do 'It' And The Willingness To Take Action
2. Purging/Cleansing/Releasing Physical, Mental & Emotional Baggage
3. Daily Meditation And Prayer
4. Balanced Nutrition/Supplements/Herbs
5. Physical Exercise/Yoga/Breath work
6. Goal Setting
7. Personal Accountability Plan
8. Psychological Therapy
9. Personal Development or Success Coaching
10. Books, Cd's, Workshops & Seminars relating to the above

Change can often be difficult. However, with the right tools, change can not only be easy, it can feel really good...and maybe even be fun!

It all starts with step number 1 -- then you can pick and choose which steps suits you next!

Keeping the light on,

Consider It All Joy...Even The Trials

Okay, it is not so easy to consider it all joy. The following quote was recently brought to my attention by a dear friend during our weekly fellowship. It comes from the new standard edition bible, James 2:1. His letter reads, "Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."

Wow, that's a lot to chew! And that is what my new MagsJoy Blog is all about: digesting the idea that everything in life is happening for a higher reason; that life is really suppose to be all joy. Although taken from the bible, my forum is not a religious one. It is more of a "mindful" journey into self exploration and realization; stretching ourselves beyond intellectual thought into a reality of possibilities. Finding clues of wisdom within ourselves, in each other, and even in a world filled with shadows, pain and suffering.

I encourage and challenge you to pull up the shade in the porthole of your mind, to step back and allow yourself to view life from a window of light. At first, it won't feel easy. The light will be bright and it may be blinding. In time, however, the rays of dust will settle and you will begin to see what you could not see before...and you may find you enjoy this new, lighter attitude.
