The Competition Fallacy
So many people falsely think that if they help another, they are helping the competition. This scarcity perspective breeds greed and insecurity; ultimately, people who hold it will realize that had they not been helped at certain times, they would not have had the opportunity to be where they are today. Now, if where you are today is the last place you would like to be, then this moment is your starting point, the important place from which you will create a way to shine again-to achieve, produce, and share the lessons you have learned as a result of your hardship. Perhaps you feel happy about where you are today, perhaps you have come that far. Then this too is your time to create a way to help others. Share how you achieved your success. You will not be "giving your secrets away"; instead you will find that you are helping so many people uplift themselves that the rewards and recognition you receive will be immeasurable. A special woman named Arielle Ford is a well-known, highly respected publicist. Because I did not yet have a publishing contract while writing this book, she could not take me on as a client. But I knew I needed publicity to ensure that the messages in this book would reach you. Arielle offers a taped seminar series called "Book Publicity University." It is phenomenal. She created it for authors who cannot afford to hire a publicist. Ironically, on one of the tapes she describes a recurring dream in which she shares her publicity secrets and know-how with others. At the time those dreams occurred, she thought, "What a nightmare." When I listened to this, I smiled. Her "nightmare" was the answer to my prayers. Thank you, Arielle! If you take a lit candle and walk into a room with one hundred people, each holding an unlit candle, and you touch your flame to the wick of another candle, you create more light. You do not lose anything by giving unto another. And as all the people in the room realize this, their light touches another until all one hundred candles are lit.
The room is filled with light. Yet you always and forever will retain your own. That is the process and the power of giving. You do have so much more when you give and so do so many others. If you held onto your single lit candle and were afraid to lose your light by giving to another, your fear would prevent you from seeing the difference you can make. Your fear stems from your belief that you will lose what you have if you give to another. Please realize you are not meant to give all you have away, but you can certainly contribute: simple advice, a phone call, an answer to a letter. When you cooperate, you give. When you lend an ear, you give friendship or comfort. Time is a valuable gift. Do not deplete your life, however, if you are not being given to in return. © Copyright by Barbara Rose.

The Self Appreciation Enhancer
Very often when you are talking to people what you really want
deep down is to feel significant, liked and important.
Consequently you watch what you are saying and are careful not to
say the wrong thing. This in turn can mean that the way you
express yourself is stifled and constricted.
Creativity, The Law of Attraction, & Networking
Hello Creative Entrepreneurs!
True Friends Are Not Dream-Slashers
A friendship poem:
Your Authentic Self
Our journey through life can lead us to surprising and unexpected destinations. Life as in nature has no straight lines. It is overflowing with corners, curves, dips, and unpredictable twists and turns. In life you might find yourself on a straight route for a period of time, but don't expect it to last. Up ahead there may be a sudden detour and you could find yourself going off in a completely different direction, backtracking, or moving into virgin territory. At some point in time, life will bring each of us to the point of dealing with the necessity to alter, modify or adjust ourselves in response to life's circumstances. How you cope with this depends on your interpretation of change and your relationship to the experience.
Whats the Opposite of Doubt?
The Law of Attraction teaches us that whatever you focus on, you will attract MORE of into your life--whether it's wanted or unwanted. To deliberately attract more of what you enjoy, you need do only three things:
Be very clear about what you want--write it down, find the precise words that describe your desire.
Emotional Alchemy
See if this scenario sounds familiar. You're under a lot of
stress. You feel irritable, angry, or depressed, and you
wish with all your heart that you could "snap out of it" but
you just seem to be attracting more of the same. Every
attempt to jolly yourself out of the blues just seems to
frustrate you more. Nothing changes, your emotional state
is like a snowball rolling downhill and everyone is walking
on eggshells around you.
Freedom of Choice -- Learning to Make the Right Choices
Recognizing your gift of choice is liberating. This means acknowledging that you are where you are because of your choices. This is the first step toward changing a situation with which you are not happy. Psychologically, for many people, this is a difficult concept to acknowledge: they might have to admit that they made a mistake. But it's easy to understand, intellectually. To actually acknowledge that personal choice played a big role in getting you to where you are today (I am here because I chose to be here) shifts the responsibility from circumstances, or imposers, that you previously felt were holding you captive, to you. With that knowledge and responsibility, you acquire the control you need to take action.
Universal Law
Have you ever had "one of those days" when absolutely everything goes wrong? Have you ever wondered why some people are successful, while others spend their entire lives struggling? Do you ever get the feeling that someone is out to get you because everything you touch goes wrong?
Get a New Attitude
One of the first and foremost things to do to change your life is to change your attitude. Attitude is fundamental to the success or failure that we experience in our life.
The Beast
What does one do when one is too old, too weak, and feels powerless and regretful? What does one do when one looks back at his life and sees nothing that was worth living for? What does one do when one sees the future coming to an end ? the end of a journey? "The journey was not mine," said the old man. "What was that about? Why was I here? What was I suppose to do? Where am I going and will I ever come back? Come back to what, to whom and for what purpose?"
14 Relationship Principles to Live A Successful Relationship
Each relationship combines two individual stories to coauthor a new relationship story. The implicit contracts authored by each party in a relationship become unspoken assumptions that can facilitate or derail the relationship.
The Magnetic, Attracting Power of the Mind
The power of the mind draws certain events, circumstances and people into our lives and repels others. In this respect, it resembles a magnet. Just look at the people around you. Some pass through certain events and circumstances, while others pass through different experiences. Some accomplish certain things easily, and others accomplish these same things with great difficulty or not at all.
To Be More Attractive? Zap The Tolerations!
Imagine there is an event that will take place in a town many miles from where you live.
The Secret of Self Care
Wherever you go, there you are. There's no escaping it - your world is a reflection of you and if the view in your mirror doesn't elicit a certain spark perhaps it's time to question the underlying assumptions.

Beads?A Sign of the Times?
When you hear the word "beads," do you immediately think of jewelry? Or do you think of Rosary beads or some other non-jewelry use of beads-beaded dresses, headbands, belts? Perhaps you think of a country and western outfit, a studded, head-to-toe piece of jewelry.
