ASKING

Have you even reached a point in your life where you were in a seemingly hopeless situation?  No matter how much time and energy you expended thinking, you had run our of ideas, could see no way through and  thought to yourself, " I give up. I have done all that I can, the best I can."

When we reach this point, when we have been conversing with ourselves and looking at the circumstance over and over and still cannot find a pathway or an answer or an idea - and when we acknowledge that we give up, of thinking that there is no point because no solution can be seen, it is time to stop, sit and focus so as to create a little space in our minds to step out of a sense of hopelessness. Even if it is for a moment for that will allow our minds to have a rest and break the escalating cycle of emotion. 

As soon as we allow a sense of helplessness to assume control of our thoughts, we become a victim.  We are at the mercy of our emotions and our circumstances and we give control of our destiny to the extremes of emotion we are experiencing which has the potential to lead us down a path towards depression.

• Recognition of what is occurring enables change.
• Acceptance of the cycle of blame enables the end of self punishment.
• Awareness of the effect emotional energy has on the ability to think clearly and make logical decisions enables one to step out of the emotional body and into the mental body.
• Letting go of fear and asking for assistance enables problems to be solved.  

Do not allow fear and self blame to imprison you.  

Focus your energy on finding solutions. Energy flows where you place your focus.  If you focus your energy on lack, you will create more of it.  If you focus your energy on finding solutions, your energy can work with you to achieve this.

TO CONSIDER

FEAR

What you FEAR, you manifest.
Whatever we concentrate on, increases, so if you concentrate on lack, you will create more lack.
Move away from the negative and place attention on what you really do want to be or to have.

GUILT

Guilt is a useless emotion.  
It never makes anyone feel better, nor does it change the situation.  
Guilt blocks creativity and sucks energy.

ACHIEVING

If you want to achieve anything, you must first be at one with who you are being.
If you are not at one with yourself, no matter what you are trying to do, there is going to be turmoil and difficulty.  
You have got to "be" calm.
 It is not enough to say "I feel calm".
