My Mother's Wisdom and My Learnings - (Wisdom # 1 & #2)

I was blessed to have a very insightful and intuitive mother who became my greatest teacher so far to date. I would like to share with you a few of her teachings and my learning's in a series of articles.

1. Choose your thoughts carefully, they are your destiny.

Since the Secret has come out people have become more aware of the power of thoughts and choices but back in the 50's when I grew up this type of wisdom was rare to get from parents.

We struggled through some hard times but my mother always told me to focus on the good things life could bring and when my sister and I did, we would see how right she was.

My philosophy to this day is that wherever I am in my life each day; it is exactly the blueprint I have created. You always have a choice about who you want to be and it starts with your thoughts so chose your thoughts carefully.

2. Be in the moment always, it's all you really have.

I so often hear my clients tell me that they will begin to change or manifest or whatever next week or perhaps sometime tomorrow.

When I first started working with guides and discovered that they work on energy only that meant they worked on the energy I created with my thoughts, deeds and actions. It amazed me to know that they did not care if that energy was positive or negative; it was just energy and they worked with whatever it was.

It did not take long to realize that saying tomorrow, next week, and perhaps later or "I will"... did not create a great response in my present time period until I realized there are no guarantees of a "tomorrow, next week or next month" and that our power was always in the moment.

This moment is the only moment in life we are given so it has the greatest point of power we will ever have. By not living in the moment we miss the joys, the teachings, and the manifesting that each day can bring and it is truly all we are ever going to have.
