Information from the internet
    The internet played a major role in my search for truth.  There is so much
    information to sift through.  Some of the information resonated with my Soul,
    some did not.  I would love to share the knowledge and wisdom I received from
    my research, unfortunately, I do not have the 'path' to take you directly to the
    sites that provided the information that helped me find my Truth.  

    If the following interest you, you may want to do a search on the key words that
    spark your interest, and let the journey begin.  (Note:  there is a pocket size book
    called "As a Man Thinketh" that gives more insight on manifesting your reality)    
Tapping into your true self.

Tapping into your true self is very simple....your thoughts.  By becoming aware
of how you think in every situation helps you to realize how much it affects
your past, present and most importantly your ‘future.'  Negative thoughts
create so much damage and hard paths in life, whereas positive thoughts
create a path with hardly any obstacles.  It really is that simple.  That is how
you help create your dreams.

Thoughts are one of the key elements in helping us manifest and create our
reality.  Thought, Word and Action.  Think it, Speak it, then Act it.

We must remove negative thinking from our minds.  All it takes is ‘recognition.'  
Recognize each time you have a negative thought.  The more you realize how
much you’re doing it, the more you will understand that your mind has literally
been trained to ‘revert’ to negativity without even realizing it’s doing it - like a
bad habit.  Once you begin to recognize this, the healing begins.  Recognize
and become aware of your thoughts, and by doing so you will actually begin to
make corrections and adjustments subconsciously.

It works like this: You see what your thoughts are telling you to see.  It’s not
actually reality it’s your perception of Reality.  Many times we make choices
based on what we see and act according to it.  So if you see negative or bad,
you literally create more of it.  If you see joy, you create more of it.  For
instance, if you walk into a room and assume you are going to have a problem
with those in the room, you literally put yourself on guard, speak on guard,
react on guard...your body actions even confirm it.  The other party is
subconsciously going to pick up on this attitude.  Hence you will get exactly
what you expect..negative draws negative.  Now walk into that room with a
smile, believing you are surrounded by light and love, know and believe that
you are making a difference and shining light onto others and rest assured,
good will come of it.  People will respond to this...positive draws positive.  Now
that does not mean everyone will accept the light, but you will be clear enough
to respond appropriately and in many instances see the source of their issues
and not take it personally.  As you begin to change your thoughts to positive
thinking, you can be in the exact same situation, around the exact same
people and what was once a sad, hurtful or angry situation actually becomes
positive and bright, if only from your perspective, for that is what truly counts.

Removing negative thinking literally raises your vibration.  As you raise your
vibration it becomes easier to hear your angels, contact your spirit guides,
follow your hunches and open up to your own intuitive ability.  It is there for all
of us to use, but first negativity must be removed as to not weigh down our
mind with our own fears and insecurities.
Fear is not the way of the Spirit world.

Fear is not the way of the spirit world.  It is a man made thought (ego) which
man created in this physical dimension (earth plane).  Fear will hold you
back from manifestations and dreams.  For example: You want a new job,
you think your talented and smart and deserve it...but you’re afraid to make
that move.  Those little ‘what if’s’ take over the mind, dictate your response
to opportunities that will arise.  They create a cycle of fear, which will hold
you back.  When you raise your vibration, your choices in life become
easier.  You begin to understand that most of your fears stem from deep
rooted issues of your upbringing, somewhere along the way you picked up
that fear or insecurity.  You are able to notice synchronicity and all the
opportunities that have and will come your way.  Your life is nothing but
opportunity, but if you cannot see an opportunity when it comes then you are
not able to ‘choose’ it.  Knowing is the greatest gift you can give yourself,
even if you decide not to choose that opportunity.

By thinking positively, you will start to see the fear for exactly that, a simple
fear created by your own mind (ego) due to an experience sometime in your
life.  These will begin to clear, slowly.  As each one clears you raise your
vibration even more.  You are literally freeing your soul from the bounds that
held it down.  You are no longer living out of your ego but you are living in
the moment itself.  Do not project your fears into an event that has not
happened yet.  For it has NOT happened yet.  And if that worst case
scenario hits, it will not even be half as bad as the turmoil and fear that has
imprisoned your mind waiting for it to happen.  What if it never happens?  
You forced your mind to not move forward.  You spent your present moment
constantly in anticipation, anxiety, fear of a future event that may or may not
happen.  What you have succeeded in doing is literally prolonging an
unpleasant event that hasn’t even occurred yet, instead of just accepting it
when it happens and making correct choices from there.  Always live
according to each moment, which is forever changing.  Nothing ever remains
the same.  Believe in yourself, for each time you deny yourself and your
power, you deny God.  Because the ‘I AM’ only wants you to know who you
are and believe in yourself.  It’s that simple.
Manifestation

In order to manifest and create your reality you must start with your
thoughts.  You cannot desire or pray for something but at the same time
believe you’re never going to get it.  That is how powerful our thoughts are.  
We have been given a great gift by God, the Divine Source, the ability to
create our reality.  We are all that powerful.  It is not just ‘for the lucky ones’
(perfect example of negative thinking).  We have been created in the
likeness of the Divine Source/God/I AM.  As God creates, we too can create.  
But you cannot create your true desires by negative thinking.  If you break it
down into energy, negative attracts negative, positive attracts positive.  Once
you master this you will truly begin to change your world around you.  
Nothing will ever look the same again.  You will open up.  You will
understand why at times ‘bad things’ happen to good people.  But the
amazing thing is you will for the first time ever understand that there is good
from all.  Even in tragedy, there is good.  You will understand and be shown
the ‘bigger picture.'  Your gifts will help you.  But is all begins with positive
thinking.

Think of what you would like to achieve in life and truly believe that it will
happen.  It may not come in the exact form you asked for, but as you raise
your vibration you will know it when it comes.  You must believe that it will
happen.  You cannot ‘want’, you must ‘believe’ it will happen.  It must be a
statement, a positive statement.  Believe in yourself, believe it will come to
fruition.  You will start to see choices appear in front of you that will take you
to your goal.  These choices have been appearing your entire life but most
times have gone unnoticed.  As you raise your vibration, they become so
prominent that you cannot miss them.  Synchronicity will be all around you.  It
is then that free will comes into play.  We always have free will to decide.  No
one can tell you the answer.  No psychic can tell you the right path, your
spirit guides and angels cannot even tell you what you must do, each choice
is yours alone.  Your intuition, your clearer thinking, and universal wisdom
will all help you move along on your path.  And if you take a wrong turn, rest
assured there will be a fork in the road up ahead again, more choices and
chances to put you back on your path.
Living in the Moment

You must learn to live in each exact moment of time.  By doing so, you can
do no wrong.  For your past is your past and your future has not been
written.  You will create it.  If you have done wrong or hurt others in the past,
the moment you recognize it, is the moment you free yourself from that
bound.  If you do it again, knowingly, you are creating negative karma toward
you, until once again you recognize and release your wrong doing.  Forgive
yourself and you are free from bounds.  You cannot forgive or help another
until you first forgive yourself.  In forgiving yourself, you send light to not only
yourself but all others in the world.

Always remember, you are of no help to anyone else until you help yourself
first.  Start with you and the rest will ‘fall into place.’
