Are you waiting for Someday?

There are lots of things we put off until “someday”. We think, “Well, I want a great garden someday.” or, “I will buy me those nice shoes when I have a reason to.” or, “I’ll change careers when I’ve got a great nest egg.” or any number of scenarios that start with, “someday….” and end with something you’ve dreamed of or wanted for awhile.

So, I ask you, what can you do today, this day, to create the “someday” in it? What can you do, one thing, to bring about the manifestation of something you truly want in your life? At the very least, envisioning yourself having or being that, several times a day…a week…feeling what that feels like, is something you can do no matter what your circumstances are at the present.

I’ve read buying the ONE thing that would represent the manifestation coming to you is an option. It’s like an anchor, giving space in your life now for it’s arrival.

The purchase could be for a new lamp in a color you hadn’t ever bought before, but like and want the energy to shift in your home to something a little classier. It could be for another bath robe, hanging it in your bathroom, for the manifestation of a new partner. It could even be a piece of jewelry, looking forward to wearing it in a better work environment or wedding or social situation. The list is neverending really.

Think on this…really spend some time with yourself about what you’re waiting “someday” for…then take action today to make it happen. One vision. One action. One anchor.

 

Learning from baking Biscuits

Like that title? You wonder how that can be the analogy for a perspective shift? It can be and it completely is. Read on….

I do all of my baking in a little toaster oven. Recently, I wanted to make biscuits as part of supper. However, my biscuits don’t really ever come out right in that little oven. I didn’t understand why. I cook most everything else in there just fine. lol

Well, being that it’s a toaster oven, I figure it was best to turn the oven temperature down slightly so that it wouldn’t cook the biscuits too fast on the outside before cooking the inside. What resulted was that five biscuits didn’t rise and barely cooked. I left them in the oven for over 30 minutes. Yes, they finally cooked, but did not rise much.

The next batch goes in and my husband puts the temperature up slightly higher than the temperature recommended. I figure my idea didn’t work so it was definitely something to give his a go. The biscuits came out beautifully!! Just the happiest little bits of bread! lol

In that whole baking experience, I realize that some things we are pushing for in one way, may need tweaking to be aimed for in a different way. If I’ve tried many times to do something in one way…hoping for good results each time…but not really getting them…then I really do need to try a new way to do it.

The new way may fail too, but it also may make things better!!! I definitely knew the old way wasn’t working though, but I, myself, couldn’t see what a new way was. My husband presented a new way for me and it was a success!

Hmmm, this leads me to a deeper thought. While we may look at things and know they are not working, a particular situation or item of cooking, we may not, ourselves, see a solution. We may sometimes need a partner, someone to tell of our situation, and allow them to offer a new solution we haven’t, ourselves, yet thought.

I saw it in biscuits…all of this. I also see it’s what I do for people. No matter your path, no matter what your belief system, I want to be that person who gives you that perspective shift to moving forward in a happy new way so that you can, once again, delight in an area of your life, like biscuits. Cheers!!
