Gratitude For The Things I Don’t Like, Online Gratitude Journal #14

I don’t like saying no. I don’t like being looked down upon. And I don’t like . . .

Well, you got the idea, right? Recently I faced a couple of difficult situations in my business. In one case, someone contacted me offering to write about my Akashic Record Reading service in her newsletter that reaches 5000 plus individuals. Quite nice. But as we discussed the details of the deal, it turned out – well, I’m not comfortable disclosing the details at this time, but I came to the conclusion that it is best to politely decline the offer.

It was an interesting learning experience. I knew I was a people pleaser (which is wonderful when it manifests positively in my service) but I didn’t realize saying no made me this nervous. I see that I need to detach more and let my business grow slowly. So for that learning opportunity, I am grateful for the incidents.

I guess every “I don’t like . . .” comes from my own fear. So when I say thanks to the learning it offers, I grow just a little bigger.

Update on the Heroes of Healing group writing project

Please check out my friend Jenny Mannion’s wonderful project that list many great leaders of modern spiritual healing. The link actually takes you to her beautiful new front page, from which you can go to her blogs or to this project. I love the way the project grew and expanded in an organic way over so many blogs. From Yes to Me, Ari Koinuma and Mokihana Calizar found this project and participated. And, oh, my own contribution is here. Thank you!

Yes to Me is about entrepreneurship and personal development, so I don’t talk about healing so often here, but actually I’m deeply involved in spiritual healing. My Akashic Record Reading service is about healing the past wounds and various energetic interferences on our souls. Many clients report improved sleep and less anxiety after the reading and clearing, for example. And I’m exploring wider applications of this modality.

Yes to Me gets Google Page Rank 4

I have no idea what earned the upgraded ranking, but I guess we can use this as a cause for celebration So here are some herb tea and cookies for all my readers. Thank you for reading and commenting!

My Law of Attraction Dream Money Project, Week 13, $409,600

After creating a foundation two weeks ago, which was fun and rewarding, I feel the need to recharge myself. So I’m going to buy a house near the beach – by cash. It’s a little hideaway on midhill that commands the ocean view. I can go there anytime – just two hours drive. I will furnish it country style. A fireplace made of reclaimed old bricks. The kitchen table has thick solid oak top, and I will have fresh flowers from the garden arranged in an antique milk jar. And then, I will hire a property manager so I can rent it out by the week to people who want relaxing down time away from the busy urban life.

And when I am ready to leave, this house can be my funeral home. I want my cremation to be spread over the ocean. I’ve eaten many fish, so they can take some of my calcium

Next week, we resume the Inside Out Approach To Entrepreneurship. Have a great weekend!
