Hello Friend,

This year has been some what exciting and challenging. I have met so many new wonderful people I could serve, well at least try to bring them awareness to improve their life. While reading this site I hope you found at least one tool that brought to your awareness how you could improve an area of your life. The next three months October, November and December will conclude our lessons of self awareness. I hope you have found the letters to be of some use to your spiritual quest. If you still feel frustrated or lost about life feel free to contact me at would love to help you even if you just need a friend to talk too. I know how tough life can get trust me I had my fair share of challenges and lesson to work through. So I can relate. Anyway this month I will give you tool to get started on creating the life plan you deserve.

You alone can decide when the turning point will come. It is a matter of choice whether we allow our higher self to control us or whether we will be controlled by the fear within us.

No man or woman has to do anything he or she does not want to do. You are the director of your life. What we are to do, is the result of our training. Since January I have been giving you tools to bring awareness to your conscious to improve different areas of your life. Only you know what area needs the most improvement.

Habit is a matter of acquirement you can either change or stay the same. The choice is yours. Everyday we are faced with challenges to improve our lives. The fact is, opportunity never seeks us; we must seek it.

I was once told,

What usually turns out to be one man’s opportunity was another man’s loss. But the key to life my friend is to become aware and alert. Because one man thinks “I will do it,” but while he procrastinates the other goes ahead and does the work.

In really both have the same opportunity!

 Therefore one will complain of his lost chance. While the other creates the life he or she says they want.

The truth is many people read books and read websites and blogs just as this one, but says they do not get much good out of them. They do not realize that all any book or any lesson course as the one you are reading now a do is to awaken you to your possibilities; to stimulate you to use your will power.

You may teach a person from now until the end of the world, but that person will only know what he or she learns themselves. “You can lead him or her to the fountain, but you can’t make him or her drink.”

The choice is theirs if they want to improve their lives. It will be up to you to drink from the fountain in this case, to take what you learn from this site and apply it to your life. I can’t take action for you my friend. All I am here to do is be the messenger of encouragement and inspiration.

My goal will be complete come this December 2012, to encourage you to seeing your good qualities and to make you aware so you can help your self by looking for them. Because the reality in life is that we get back what we give out. The time comes when most all of us need encourage; need buoying up.

 I needed this, my friend when I went through my Quarterlife Crisis. So, I made a promise to myself if I every made it through I would dedicate my life to encouraging others who suffer and who is frustrated with the stress and challenges of life. So, I became a “Lightworker.” a choice I made to form the habit of encouraging others, to live their best life.

Life furnishes us the opportunity to improve. But whether we do it or not depends upon how near we live up to what is expected of us. I went through the storms of life and improve my weakness. I begin to encourage and uplift others. Therefore the universe gave back to me what I put out-encouraging and uplifting thoughts from others.

Every time that we fall behind what we planned to do, we lose just so much for that time is gone forever. I am a true believer that every person that is willing to pay the price can be a success. The price is not in money, but in effort.

So, start today creating the life plan that will get you to that place that you desire.

 
It's easier to create new habits than break old ones, so the first thing you need to do is simply change one habit every week and stick to each one for at least 30 days.

Week 1

On Sunday’s

Habit 1

Lay out clothes. Make sure everything is ironed and ready to go for the next morning so you aren’t rushing around or trying to select something to wear while half asleep.

Week 2

In the Morning

Habit 2

Wake up 30 minutes earlier before anyone else in the household. Give yourself time to shake the sleep from your head as well as provide a little extra time to do the things that are important. Read the news, email friends, spend time with God, create a to do list for the day, read or listen to inspirational material or take care of other personal business without feeling rushed or guilty.

Week 3

Habit 3

Eat breakfast. Not only will morning fuel from breakfast get your body going, you will eat less at lunch too. In addition you feel less irritated and have more energy to get you through your challenging morning.

Week 4

In the Afternoon

Habit 4

Straighten up. Clean up the clutter that gets left behind each day to avoid having a bigger mess to clean later down the road.

Week 5

Habit 5

Wash dishes. Take care of this task in the evening so you will have a kitchen clean ready for breakfast the next morning.

Week 6

Habit 6

Pack lunches. Prepare lunches for yourself and anyone else in the family the night before using a lunch-packing system like the Japanese bento box or Laptop Lunches.

Week 7

Habit 7

Relax. Take some time to do something you enjoy such as read a magazine, watch a little TV, or talk with a friend on the phone.

Week 8

Habit 8

Go to bed at the same time. A consistent bedtime schedule will ensure you get necessary sleep and you will wake up feeling rested, refreshed, and ready for your day.

 Week 9

Habit 9

Be ready to go. Put bags, keys, backpacks, and whatever else you need to take with you in the morning in the same place each evening so you will not spend wasted time and stress looking for them in the morning.

Week 10

Habit 10

Renew your mind. Improve your self awareness every day by listening to or reading something uplifting for one hour everyday. This can be done on your way to and from work or during your time in the morning when you get up earlier. Keep a journal of your thoughts and also start a gratitude journal where every morning and night before you go to bed you list 10 things you are grateful for and the best thing that happen to you that day. This one habit will enhance your lifestyle and increase the quality of your life.

I hope this helps,

Till next time my friend

 Things to think about, Life will always have challenges just remember this too shall

pass. Your ultimate goals and objectives you have set out for your life resolves around your fears, anxiety or low self-confidence. Do you have a sense for which one of these may be causing the hiccups you mention? If so you have the first step to getting out of your rut.

Many of my clients respond to their problem with this statement, “Every time I say to myself I need to make a change, it always backfires and I end up going one step forward, 500 steps back.”

The truth is when you get the feelings that your goals are impossible to reach, do you believe it has to do with the goals you have selected or with uncertainties/fears/negative challenges that impact your belief that you will get there?

When this happens you need to try harder to put yourself in situations that will create opportunity of change.

Rid Negative Out you Life Part 2 of 4 Articles

                                                                Image Credit Google

Now that we have our schedule and routine in place, we can now get to our next phase.

Dear Friend

Our purpose on this plane is to give out love not hate or bad vibes. In truth, there is only love. Yes, there is the appearance of duality light and dark, happy and sad, seen and unseen, known and unknown- but behind and inside of all of these appearances is a perfect, whole, unified field of energy. This field is what we must learn to tap into to create the life we desire.

When we can tap into this field of energy we can consciously direct tit toward healing ourselves, healing others, and infusing our lives with ever-greater levels, healing others, and infusing our lives with ever-greater levels of harmony, balance, and peace.

Therefore my question to you is…

What are you putting up with? If you are tolerating things that are draining your energy, stop!

What are you always thinking about?

What's always at the back of your mind?

Things that often enter your thoughts are often things that you're putting up with.


Make a list of all the things you're tolerating and then work on eliminating them one at a time.

You could eliminate them by:

• actually doing it
• delegating it
• influencing it in some way
• or getting over it!

Many people have a hard time with this.

Once you’ve accessed these concepts, brought them into the light of awareness and made a list of anything that could possible be untrue or at least questionable about hindering your spiritual growth, take a moment with each one and see if you can conceive of ideas that contradict it or just do the above strategies and eliminate them by:

• actually doing it
• delegating it
• influencing it in some way (positive affirmation)
• or getting over it (by detaching letting it by forgiven!)

 I hope this helps,

Till next time my friend

Choices - How To Choose To Create The Life That's Right For You Part 3 of 4 Articles

                                                                  Image Credit Google

Dear Friend

Once you have gotten rid of all of the negative out of your life you must begin to learn how to make the best choice for your new life you wish to create. For many people this idea sound far fetch, but it can be done. I did it!  You can create the life that you want to have. It's just a matter of consistently making choices that will take you closer to your ideal life.

You create yourself, moment by moment, day by day, experience by experience, and become the person you want to become by each choice you say yes or no to. If you decide to move from your small town to a big city this is creating a new life. If you decide to write a song and sing on open mic night you are creating your life. You never know who is in the audience seeking new talent.

That’s why each choice you make should be align with what you what to experience. Though often it may not feel like it, you have the choice in how you react to situations. You have the choice in what you do with your time. You have the choice in how creative you want to be. You have the choice in the person you want to be.

It's never too late to Reclaim Your Life.

All is required is the perfect choice that fits your ideal life.

Now make 3 choices that align with the life you want to create at this present moment.

1.
2.
3.

Example,

1. Instead of feeling I have no time to create new friendship in my life, I will start eating out one day a week in a public setting.

 2. I'm going to start spending a minimum amount of time every weekend attending classes, seminars or workshops to meet like minded people.

3. I will also attend a support group or book club to create a new social life.

The final step is where you're going to put your words into action. Pick one of the 3 steps you've written, and commit to taking it. Today. Right now.

 I hope this helps,

Till next time my friend

How to Start Loving Yourself Part 4 of 4 Articles

                                                                  Image Credit Google

Dear Friend

Once you have your ideal life goals on paper and steps to follow. Next you need to practice self care routine.

Pamper your skin. Once a week apply a face mask and moisturizer.

Tips:

For Oily skin. Naturally oily skin usually requires special cleansing treatments with hot water and special soaps that prevent pores from becoming clogged. Products that are harsh on the skin usually do more harm than good. It is best to stay away from soap that strips you of all natural oils. Instead, it is a better idea to go for a gentle cleanser. Never overwash your face; you shouldn't wash your face more than three times a day. Look into clay or mud mask that will be most convenient for you

For Dry skin.

• Check your Water. Avoid long, hot showers as hot water draws the moisture out of your skin.
• Check your clothing. Wear soft clothing with natural, breathable fibers and avoid itchy wool and synthetics that irritate and dry out the skin.
• Drink  plenty of Water. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Dehydration can make your skin appear dull and dry.

For combination skin.

Check your products. Avoid the subsequent flakiness by using products that are hypoallergenic

Use oil free lotions. Although moisturizers containing oil will help a little with the dry parts of your face, adding oil to the equation will only make the T-zone look extra greasy. Oil-free lotions almost always list water as the first and main ingredient, and they also usually include ingredients that act like oil but don't clog your pores.

Proper way to wash combination skin face. Wash your face first. Then when you pat dry with a towel, leave a very small bit of water on your face and immediately apply your moisturizer.

 Take care of your Hair and Nails. If you can afford to go to the salon great, if not do it yourself. Get a haircut. This is your first real step to a more noticeably beautiful you. Make sure your haircut is something that you're comfortable with, but do something new. If a hair cut is not your thing maybe you can get highlights, layers, beveled ends, shorter styles or side bangs are really beautiful.

Try new makeup. Makeup is not a must, but you may want to use it. Eyeliner is a great investment if you want to fill your eyes out and make them look for defined or bigger. If you don't want to wear make up, get an eyelash curler if you can. Curling your eyelashes is a great alternative to mascara, curling opens your eyes up and makes them appear brighter - but be careful or you can damage your lashes! A little bit of lip gloss over a color or on its own will fill out your lips.

I sale Avon and many Avon Reps will give you a makeover for “FREE” to gain new prospect just a thought to get it done on a budget or for FREE.

Once you are done get as much information as you can on Self Care to keep you appearance up it will enhance your self esteem. If you need any tips please e-mail me I will send you what I give to my clients. lightofdayinc@yahoo.com

Here are few to help you get started…

Tips:

For oily hair. Shampoo daily with a mild or clarifying shampoo designed for oily hair. These products will likely contain more detergent and less conditioner than other shampoos. Scrub your scalp, since that’s where the oil starts, and rinse well, as oil can collect on soap buildup. Go easy on conditioner — cut back to just once or twice a week, and focus on the ends of your hair, not your scalp.

For dry hair. Natural oils are necessary to keep hair looking healthy, shiny and bouncy. By conditioning the hair daily, with a leave in conditioner will help the hair stay moist. To prevent dryness and breakage, once a month, opt for a deep conditioning treatment or a hot oil treatment.

Nail care tips:

1. Apply hand cream frequently to ensure your hands remain moisturized. In particular, pay special attention to the cuticle area to prevent cracking and peeling.

2. Eat foods that will strengthen your nails. In particular, increase your intake of the B vitamin Biotin. Biotin can be found in foods such as fish, eggs and broccoli, or can be taken in the form of supplements.

3. Wear gloves to protect your nails when doing housework or other chores that could damage them.

Dress for your body type.

Even cheap clothes can be great clothes. If you have a bigger budget, get some new clothes from more popular branded stores, if not, try TJ Max, Ross, Marshall even JCPenny has sales that may fit your budget. Make sure you've got a couple of well-fitted,  pair of jeans. Tank tops that are regualr style and with lace and fitted tees can make a huge difference.

Accessorize. Jewelry is really important. You don't need to wear too much, but make sure you've got a couple of great pieces. Keep it simple. Wear a necklace often. Check out Avon, Mark Brand or Claire's for necklaces.

 Fancy Feet. Shoes are important, too. Get a cute pair of flats, a pair of heels, a pair of flip flops, and a pair of running shoes. High boots with fur are cool in the winter. I buy all my shoes from Avon- Mark brand has cool heels and boots. I like to get my tennis shoes from Foot locker. Flip flops and depending on how the heels look and feel  I buy from Target. Just Fab and Miami club wear has cute heels also but be careful on the make some fit uncomfortable.

The bottom-line is knowing how to love yourself is extremely important. Self love is at the very core of wellbeing, joy, self-empowerment, and your ability to create and enjoy the kind of life you want. You cannot enjoy happiness if you are not at peace with yourself. Your relationship with yourself is the most important one you’ll ever have.

Create the life you love from the inside first then work on the out side.

I hope this helps,

Till next time my friend

The Healing is In the Way you Feel

Dear Friend,

Until you learn how to love yourself, this is how you cripple yourself so that you can’t move forward or go after the things you want.

Underlying this negative self talk it can be long-held beliefs about yourself or statements that other people once said to you. This usually comes from your parents, siblings, and other people around you during your early years.

Whatever the case may be where the stimulus was negative; the small seed were planted and grown into small negative self talk, fear and unhealthy choices! This so clearly demonstrates the effects of the negativity hurled at oneself until you learn how to love yourself.

A good first step in learning how to love yourself is to periodically check in with yourself through the day and notice how you’re feeling – happy, alive and open? Closed and contracted? Neutral?

If you are feeling negative, trace back to when you first started feeling that way. Chances are really good that somewhere at that juncture you told yourself something negative about yourself.

What might first come to your awareness is a negative attitude or thought about someone else. However, if you look closer you’ll find that somewhere along the way the part that really got you feeling bad was a negative thought about yourself. It might have been guilt about the negative thought about someone else, or feelings of inadequacy.

Once you aware take one of the tools you have learn and apply it to your life.

Think Positive!

Speak positive!

Act positive!

Do What ever needs to be done to feel better about yourself and move forward in your life.

I hope this helps,

Till next time my friend
