Hurricane of the Heart
Posted by Intuition Girl
Have you ever been in a situation where you felt so much emotion that it felt as if you were going to implode? The worst part about it is that these feelings typically begin very small but over time, they 
breed into a mega-storm of emotions. Sometimes we can head these things off at the pass if we are willing to deal with our feelings right as they happen. Unfortunately we usually let these emotions build and build until they get out of control, which usually result in harm to ourselves and those around us.
Nature is unpredictable as is the nature of mankind. But if you can see a storm, or metaphorical storm brewing, you can take the necessary precautions to protect life and limb. The same holds true for matters of the heart, mind, soul and body. The actions that we take and reactions that we have to life events can either be our undoing or our bridge to survival. When you learn from one experience, you gain the awareness and knowledge to predict what you need to do the next time something similar happens. If you allow life’s’ storms to engulf you time and time again, you are simply beating your head against a brick wall. It will not advance you and it will only continue to deplete you of your life energy.
But it hurts…
Ah yes, sometimes life lessons are hard to take. A lot of times we feel crushed, heartbroken, angered, disgusted, disappointed…you name it, we have all been there. 
But it is what you do after the fact that matters the most. Do you continue to beat yourself up for the negative feelings that you own? Do not allow the emotional storm to grow out of control. The minute you do, it has won and you have given into the power of your emotions and lost all self-control. It is time for you to get up, brush yourself off, lift your head up, own the feeling, accept the feeling, and then say, “Yes, that situation made me feel horrible, but I am not going to let it beat me. I will endeavor to prevent it from happening again.”
Until we speak again, I am

One Million and One Choices
Posted by Intuition Girl
Do you really know what it means to be a winner in life? I am sure you have heard others speak about folks who appear to have it all – a happy marriage, a great home life, a solid career, good friends, a nice home. When you notice that some people have such comfortable lives, does your heart pine to have a similar lifestyle?
It all boils down to the choices that you make in life. Each day, in fact, you make countless decisions of which you do not give a second thought. For example, when you wake up in the morning, take a shower, eat breakfast, drive to work, do your job, go shopping and then come home, you have made six choices already. But it is all the in-between decisions that sometimes have the most impact. The thing about these choices, too, is that there is an underlying reason or purpose as to why you do all the things that you do. What determines your choices, actions, behavior and end results is the motivating factor or drive. What convictions do you have about the life you want to lead? If you are simply going through the daily motions of “living” but not loving life, you may not truly have or achieve the lifestyle you deserve.
To become a winner in life, you must have a winning attitude of gratitude. The more you learn to appreciate the blessings in your life, the greater chances you will reach greatness in everything that touches your life. “I am grateful, but I am simply not going anywhere,” you say? What choices can you make today to jumpstart the road to your individual success? You must take a look at the motivator behind what you do – the seed you have planted to grow your abundance. Is the seed just a withering way to get by and make ends meet, or is the seed being nurtured with a strong and productive strategy to go beyond the average and into the extraordinary life you want to have? Do not “pine about” what you could have. Instead, take action steps. Make every choice count for something. If you are stuck in a dead end job, and you know that it is a dead end job, why are you still there? The same holds true for relationships. If you are in a negative relationship, or if you do not have the love of your life in your life, then what are you doing about the situation to
rectify it? Look at your past, your present and your future. Where have you been, what choices have you made, what choices are you making today, and what choices do you need to actively make to achieve the end results you want? If you are making the same decisions that you have made 10 years ago, isn’t it time you switched strategies?
You have one million and one choices (and beyond) to create a joyful and prosperous life of individual freedom. Plant the seed of success in your heart, your mind, and your spirit. Give it wings to fly by following up on lifestyle-changing choices so you too, can soar to greater heights. Until we speak again, I am

Slam Dunk!
Posted by Intuition Girl
The ball is in your court. You have the opportunity to make a three-pointer from the goal line. At first there is a loud roar, and the other players are watching your every move. As your eyes focus on the net, the only thing stirring on your body is the bead of sweat rolling down your forehead. Just as quickly as the crowd roared, there is a sudden silence. Not even a hush can be heard around the court. The only thing between you and the net is your clear concentration to make the ball through the hoop. All your hard work and efforts have finally paid off. What you do with that ball at this moment is going to affect the outcome of the game…and maybe even your future as a professional ball player. Do you take the shot or do you walk away?
Nothing is impossible to those who believe. Do not refuse to move onward and upward to grab your greatness! Possibly you just say to yourself-I can’t do it-it is too hard! Dreams can become reality for you when you choose to manifest the power of you inner abilities and your inner soul. When you seek the courage in your heart like so many have done before you, you pave the way to achieving that what you truly desire in life. Do not forget that you are already standing on the court. The ball is either within reach or maybe even in your hands.
Whatever it is that you are choosing to pursue at this moment — a job, a new home, a relationship — is entirely within your own hands. You shape your reality…you choose your destiny. Are you going to take the shot? For what are you waiting? This moment will not last forever. At some point you must make that initial forward motion and keep the momentum going. Life waits for no one and the longer you stand in the same spot, the further you fall behind and the more you lose sight of your focus. I have said it before and I am saying it again, “keep it going. Keep it going.” Set your sights and take the shot at the goal — if you believe, nothing is impossible.

Shifting your Powerful Internal System
Posted by Intuition Girl
To become a skilled driver of your life, you must first identify your true nature and your passion. By now you are probably aware that pursuing the appropriate path in life is not at all times particularly clear; however, when you reach the end of your journey, you quickly discover how rewarding your efforts truly have been. This is where shifting your powerful internal system comes into play.
Making the Shift…
Imagine a high-performance automobile. While you may have been driving all your life, there are certain routes you take day in and day out. That’s simple memorization. The vehicle is a no-brainer. You step in, you put the key in the ignition, you put it in reverse or drive and you go wherever it is you need to be. Now imagine your body as that vehicle. Inside your vehicle are numerous parts that make you function properly. Some are automatic for you, such as your beating heart, your lung function, etc. Others, you must do by learning from the time you were born, like breathing, for example. If you forget to breathe, you will pass out but eventually it comes naturally to you…like memory.
Still other functions, like speaking, walking, running, jumping, or other physical movements are done so with ease by the want. So if you are sitting on one side of the room and you decide that you want to walk to the other side of the room, your brain instantly follows your mental choice and signals your legs to get up and do the physical work for you. In other words, your parts all work together in unison to create a specific action (or actions) for you. Now think for a moment, if you are stuck in one gear. Maybe it is stuck in reverse. Or worse, it is glued to neutral and you cannot move forward or backward. All you are doing is stagnating where you are. The same holds true internally in your own body. Like an automobile, you must make the necessary modifications to correct the mechanics of your motion.
So how do you shift your powerful internal system? You assess the problem, identify what it is you need to repair to do to the problem, make the needed adjustments and now you can get back on track. Sounds easier said than done, right? Nope!
Here is the good news: Like many new vehicles, we are already equipped with an internal GPS and a computerized, well-oiled machine. Even if we hit a roadblock, run into detours, or sometimes wind up on a dead-end street, we can pretty much use the bonus tools we are fitted with–born with—like our inner compass to locate where we are, the direction we are going, and tap into the right people and places to go to at the right time every time.
In other words, you have the power to shift into the right mode every time when you allow your inner compass to guide your journey. As always, you get to decide if you choose to simply idle away your life or put it into gear and climb that mountain with momentum and speed. Which path are you taking, and how are you planning to get there? Think. Breathe. Know. You have the innate power to transmute your roadblocks, detours and dead-end streets into something more lucrative, more rewarding, more mentally charged so that your pathway to your final destination is clear and accurate. It is possible. You know this to be true, so for what are you waiting?
I invite you to take a look at my new 5-Month interactive mastery program which will start this coming February. Hopefully this is the year when you feel called to invest in yourself and give yourself the gift of a professional education as you Follow your Inner Compass.
