AFFIRMATIONS CAN BECOME OUR LIFE SAVERS
To succeed in life you must have a positive attitude at all times ...! Yeah, much easier said than done!
If we try it can make all the difference!
Our thoughts should be our first targets. How?
Just use a fantastic tool - the positive affirmation.
Personally I suggest making use of a good book by one of the best authors, "The Power Is Within You!" by Louise L. Hay
I quote: "... I do not heal anyone ... I help people to take responsibility for their lives, to discover their own power ..."
So let's do it!!

ASTROLOGY (2)
Continuing from my last post on “what Astrology is not”, I would like to demystify the idea that planets influence us and/or our life circumstances, a very popular belief.
They do not! Planets do not affect us at all!
Astrology observes planets positions and their interactions, thus interpreting what kind of energy is available to us at a given time.
In order to understand how this works think of the following: When you look at the watch, you can see what the time is, but surely you have no doubts whatsoever about the fact that the watch can not influence time. So, you check, for instance, if it is lunch time or supper time. Then you use your own free will, you might decide although it is lunchtime not to have lunch…! It is your decision, and the worst that can happen is….well, you will get hungry! Lol.
This is a rough and basic example of how Astrology works. If we observe the sky (above) we can tell what is happening in the inner realm of individuals (below), just like the watch pointers, the planets only indicate and reflect what is happening and they have no effect on it.
Next, I will give you an idea how does a Natal Chart work and how it can help us.
I will be very happy to answer any questions you may have. Drop me a line.

LOOKING AT THE BIGGER PICTURE
It is important to look at what is accomplished by going through day-to-day situations or events that are unpleasant or frustrating. Quite often, one will discover that the outcome was positive in some way and sometimes you end up making the changes you were fighting in the first place if you just look at the bigger picture.
Last week was especially frustrating for me. I had a number of incidents take place that I certainly did not see as positive in any way as they were happening but once it was all over with…the benefits were evident.
The day started by having problems with my internet connection. This drives me crazy because the internet connection is the life line to my business. When it goes down, I start to freak – not right away but if the problem is not fixed in a few hours then the frustration starts to build. I contacted my internet provider and discovered that they were having problems with their lines so once I knew that, I started to relax.
That night, I discovered that it was still not working so I called my internet provider again only to discover that they were closed. Instant frustration! My old internet provider had recently been bought out by another company and apparently, they do not offer 24/7 support so I had to wait until the next morning to contact them.
The next morning, the connection was still not working so I called support again. I spoke to a representative who told me that the problems on their end were resolved so he figured it must be my computer. I found this difficult to accept because I had not done anything different in the last few days and the connection was working one moment and down the next. I could also connect using the phone connection without a problem – just not the DSL connection. We ran through a series of fix-its that did not work.
I thought I could narrow down the problem by trying the connection using my spare computer – that way I could tell if it really was my computer or not so I started up the other computer and instantly began to smell something burning. Yep, my power supply burnt out! By this time, I was really frustrated and my problem was still not resolved.
I had to take my spare computer in to be repaired so I brought both computers in and asked my computer “fix-it” guy (Dave) to test the internet connection for me. It worked fine at his place. It was not my computer. He also repaired the power source and replaced the fan because it was really noisy in my spare computer.
I reviewed what had happened and decided that I did not like the fact that I did not have 24/7 support. I was paying a lot of money and figured I was not getting value for my very hard earned dollar. So I made a decision…
The week before, I had switched my phone service to a company that offered a lower price on service with more features. At the time, I was asked if I wanted to bundle into a package of phone and internet which I declined – I was afraid of running into problems by making the change. I phoned them up and told them to switch. The installer had to get to my telephone jack to make changes and it was hidden behind the desk and was very hard to get to so I ended up taking my office apart and moving things around so it was easily accessible.
Later that night, Bell Telephone called because the internet provider put in a report that there were problems on the line. The Bell Rep checked and apparently there were problems in the area that would have affected my connection. They were still monitoring the problem and the connection might go up and down for a while. To help with the speed of the connection, she increased my connection from 3mg to 5mg (which would almost double my current speed connection).
I went through several very frustrating days but the end results were…
- lower prices on my long distance rates (only 2 cents per minute)
- a savings of close to $150.00 a year on internet and phone
- 10 Features on my phone (included in the bundle)
- 24/7 internet support
- double the speed of my internet connection
- easier accessibility to my phone connections
- easier accessibility to my electrical connections
- a better office set-up
- a quieter spare computer
- All in all, there were a lot of benefits that I received by going through so much turmoil.
Throughout the entire process, I kept thinking that weeks before I had decided that I was going to make decisions to make my life easier and that by going through the turmoil, I actually did end up improving my life circumstances and making things easier for myself.
So the next time you find yourself going through day-to-day events that are frustrating, check and see if the things that are happening are taking you to a better place – making your life better in some way or answering a need that you voiced. Try looking at the bigger picture and you may just discover that what happened were actually very positive in nature.

ASTROLOGY (1)
There is so much said and written about what is Astrology, that instead, I will say a few words about what Astrology is not.
It is definitely not a science, it has not been proved by scientific evidence in a technological lab. On the contrary, it is an empiric technique, developed over the centuries by careful observation, compiled by wise people. One of its beauties is that it really works and it is accurate, and this has been established behond a shred of a doubt.
Astrology is based on the ancient Hermetic Laws which say: As above so below, as outside so inside. This is, put very simply, what our scientists mean today when they say that, in the Universe the microcosm and the macrocosm contents are identical…
There are various types of Astrology: Psychological, Medical, Karmic etc.etc.
I practice Psychological Astrology, the one which Jung and other great philosophers advocated themselves. Carl Jung, one of the most controverse of Freud´s disciples, was a staunch astrologer and his contribution, both with his research and studies as well as with his teachings, was invaluable.
Over the centuries, plenty well known philosophers dedicated themselves to its study and growth.
In order to keep this simple we will carry on in the next post. I will be pleased to answer your comments.

THE LIST
After deciding to do try coaching the first step is to write down your priorities. Let’s do it!
Pick a piece of paper and decide where to keep it, you are going to need it again soon.
1 - In which area(s) are you pleased with your success?
2 – In which area(s) aren’t you pleased with your success?
3 – Name 3 to 5 reasons to for your answers to 1- and 2-
4 - Which subject/ area would you choose to start your path to success?
Put the piece of paper in a dossier and name it ”Steps to my personal success”
And you are ready to go!
Note: do not try to be too ambitious the process of changing is a difficult one (sometimes it really hurts), so begin step by step.
By the way what would you be willing to change? Why ?

SELF PROTECTION (2)
EINSTEIN
Just as I promised in my previous article, I am going to describe one of my favourite self protection methods which is simple, quick and effective:
Start by imagining a big, very bright and shimmering white light coming from above (the sky) directly at you. Let it penetrate you through the top of your head and slowly permeate every particle of your body right down to your toes, until it fills you totally.
Feel inundated by it, and then visualize it starting to overflow to the area surrounding your body, until it forms the shape of a capsule or an egg shell around you. You will then be right at the centre of this capsule.
Hold that image, and now add a circle of strong fire, high rich flames surrounding your capsule. And voilá! You are safe and protected from all negativity.
If you are in a quite private place I suggest you take your time and say out loud what you are doing as you go along, for greater intent.
If you happen to be around people, do it in your mind while you go about whatever you are busy with.
Play with it, add or change it at your hearts content and create your own personal self defence method, all you need to remember is that where there is Light there can not be darkness, once darkness is nothing else but the absence o Light.
Ah, and remember to use it!
When you have, drop me a line and tell me how you enjoyed it and any difficulties you may have had. Or, if you like, share with us your own favourite method for self protection.

IS PERSONAL SUCCESS ONLY IN YOUR PROFESSION?
On the positive side it has made the idea of obtaining help a lot more acceptable.
But I wonder if personal success is all about professional success only...
WHAT IS COACHING?
It is to help someone change what he wants to change in order to achieve personal success.
This should extend to the various areas of life (e.g. the self, surrounding relationships), social and professional.
WHAT IS A COACH?
It is the professional that moderates the above mentioned change process by making use of all the technical knowledge acquired and who can also be called “moderator”.
? Leave me your comment!
Do you see your personal success related only to your profession? Why?
Have you tried coaching? Would you like to share your experience with us?

SELF PROTECTION (1)
We should really make it a part of our daily morning routine, and then redo it through out the day in circumstances like before going into very busy areas frequented by a lot of people (eg. a shopping centre), before visiting a sick person, before initiating any type of spiritual work (whether it is meditation, healing or a reading), plus whenever our intuition warns us that there is a need for self protection.
There are plenty ways, many different methods available, and it is important that we believe and feel comfortable with the one we choose.
Every one of us must use the method and the light colour that most resonates with us.
Some people prefer purple light for protection, I personally like white light, not only because it is the purest but also because white contains all other colours.
In my next article I will explain, in a few easy steps, one method used for self protection. You will find that after you have used it a couple of times it is actually very quick and easy. Meanwhile I would like to hear from you, leave your comments.
