Kamin Bell - What if you believe?

Wow, time is flying!

Kamin Bell — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 03:45:00 GMT

It's hard to believe we've already completed three months of 2009! I'd ask where did it go but I know. I recently started a new job and moved to a lovely new city, a beautiful manifestation, so lots of time has been spent there. I've definitely neglected my writing but I have 5 mindmaps ready to go all on manifesting in these times.

I have been coaching and teaching people about attracting more abundance in the current environment because people really are. These times are just a correction. I don't use the "R" word. Of course I know people affected by the economy but when one of my closest friends called to tell me that she'd lost her job and blamed it on the economy, I said it had nothing to do with the economy. There was a long pause on the phone. I followed up with the quesion, "Let me ask you this, was that job killing you?" I knew it was and she said, "Yes." We have similar spiritual beliefs, so my next question was, "have you gotten the sense from God that you were to do something else or look for another job?" Again she answered, "Yes." I spent the next 30 minutes or so coaching her about what to do next, where to place her thoughts, and teaching her to reconnect to who she truly is. The synchronicities that have occurred for her since then have been remarkable, beautiful and a great reminder that when we listen, really listen, not in fear, we are so guided and provided for.

I, too, have to listen and take action and believe and dream. I did write my intentions for this year on December 31, 2008. In a couple of days, I'll pull them out and see how I'm doing and see if any need adjusting. I'm grateful I took this opportunity to connect with one of my intentions for this year and write here tonight. And, I'm looking forward to sharing more thoughts on manifesting in these times.

Blessings, Kamin

The Year in Review

Kamin Bell — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 02:50:00 GMT

What a year. It's hard to believe it is almost over. It seems to have gone by so fast but when I stop to look at what took place this year...WOW...It's been quite a year.

I have been "off the grid," so to speak, wrapped up in manifesting. I manifested something spectacular and peculiar and frustrating and wonderful, all at the same time. I must admit, I have done my fair share of whining over the past couple of months but over the last few days, I've been thinking about 2008 and my accomplishments. Sure, I tried some things that didn't work out but I learned from them...I hope. I had great fun, lots of laughter, a few tears, some heartache, but overall, a really good year

In a few days, on December 31st, I will begin my annual ritual (really biannual as I do this on my birthday as well) and I will write in my red velvet journal my mother gave me years ago. That day I will write my year in review...mostly from a success perspective and all that I've accomplished. And, on January 1st, I will write my "intentions" for the year ahead. In MissionAbundance I write a lot about setting intentions, coming from the core of who we are and what wants to be expressed through us. I have specific areas that I will set intentions for, which I will share in a later post.

I so look forward to this time. It's truly magical both in realizing my ability to survive all that life has to offer and my ability to dream and have hope for the future.

If you haven't looked for your successes this year, now is the time. Over the next few days, keep a running list of accomplishments...even if the year has been tough for you, I know you can find a few. Find the good in your life and be grateful for what you do have in this moment...right this moment. And, have hope for the future.

Blessings,
Kamin

MissionAbundance: Your Mission...

Kamin Bell — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 13:34:00 GMT

Each month I receive wonderful questions at www.askkaminbell.com regarding experiencing more abundance in our lives. At the monthly teleclasses on the third Tuesday of the month, I can never get to answering all of them due to the sheer volume of questions. Many of them have the same theme:

- How do I get started
- How do I focus
- How do I change my thoughts from positive to negative
- How do I create a plan to live my dream
- And, ultimately, how do I really change my life and live my dreams and desires.

I decided to create a step-by-step program for those of you who have been asking yourselves these questions and truly want to make changes but are not sure how.

When I wrote "Journey to Abundance" it was mostly from a wealth perspective. But abundance is much bigger than just wealth. Abundance includes having wonderful health, relationships, joy and prosperity.

Go to www.missionabundance.com to find out more information and to get your gift, "10 Tips to Begin to Dream Again." This special report was based on so many questions on how to reconnect with your dreams.

This new 4-month, really unbelievably low cost program is designed around your biggest questions about experiencing more abundance and living your dreams. I wanted to make sure that I kept this program affordable. If I charged what others charged, many good people wouldn't be able to take advantage.

And, most importantly, this program is about connecting you to your dreams, creating an action plan that you can take action on almost automatically, focusing on what you want and taking consistent action to catapult you toward your dream.

There is a special Charter Membership available for those people who are ready now to change their lives. But, it's only for the first 30 26 people. The price goes up after that.

Go now to check it out and pick up your free tips! www.missionabundance.com.

Masters in Spiritual Psychology?

Kamin Bell — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 05:08:00 GMT

I have been asked many times about my Masters in Spiritual Psychology. Recently I was asked to sit on the Graduate Panel for an information night at the University of Santa Monica (USM). I had such a fabulous time sharing my wins from school.

One of the number one questions people have about this degree is what does one do with it? On the panel with me was a medical doctor, a clothing designer, and a talent agent. Each of us talked about the difference the degree has made in our lives, the fulfillment of our dreams, and how we are with people. I focused on how prior to USM I had some communications issues. Having been military for 9 years and growing up in a very disciplined family, I could be a bit rough around the edges. And, I had been quite successful in my career with regard to getting things done and accomplishing tasks. However, what I knew was that the person that I was when I was with my friends was (is) a kind, loving, generous, caring person. But that's not who showed up to work each day. Dr. Ron Hulnick, president of USM, says that we leave 70% of our real selves in the car when we go into our office buildings. Well, I was leaving about 90% in the car. And, I desperately wanted to change that.

One wonderful aspect of USM is that we learned 35 basic communication skills. And, because I really wanted to improve my communication at the office, I asked for tuition reimbursement and it was granted. About 1/3 of my Masters of Arts in Spiritual Psychology was covered by my company! How cool is that! I continue to use those skills every day as a coach, a teleclass leader and a people manager. I did get challenged by the reimbursement department the second year but my boss and I both spoke to the tremendous improvements I had made on the job. And, with my friends? I got to be more loving, more kind, more joyful and more compassionate than ever. I can honestly say that I get to take 90% of my authentic self into work each day and it's such a great feeling!

If you would like more information about USM, visit www.universityofsantamonica.edu. It is the greatest gift I gave myself, and all the panelist said the same as well. Feel free to ask me questions as well. It is an amazing program and wonderful opportunity to be who you came here to be

Our Faith in Spring

Kamin Bell — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 19:31:00 GMT

I recently returned from the East coast to the West coast. What a difference a few hours makes. When I left New York it was 50 degrees with the sun shining. Much of the weekend was a high of 43. For a California girl, in March, that's just unnatural. The week before I had been in crop pants and sandals enjoying the warmth. For those of you in colder parts of the world, I know you're calling me a wimp. And, I am!

Just a few days ago, we entered Spring which is clearly evident in California by the budding trees and flowers. It has yet to emerge on the East coast, where the ground is still hard and the trees barren. And yet, I know the season is changing there even without clear evidence. It must, it's nearly time based on our calendar.

As with our own dreams, we may be believing for something to bloom in our lives and come to fruition. And, we've been believing for some time with no evidence of movement or new life. We may not have the same confidence we have when we know it's Spring. We may not have the faith needed to believe all the way to the seen with our dreams.

But the Law of Attraction states that what we focus on expands and attracts to us. And, biblically, Hebrews 11:1 states: "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (KJV)

So, if we have a dream that we've been believing for, what if we did have the same faith we have in Spring? What if we looked for the buds of our dreams, the small shifts in the Universe that showed we are on the right track? What if we held a position of knowing that the Universe heard our prayers and was delivering to us what we were believing for? Would it not amplify our use of the Law of Attraction? Would we hold on longer to our dreams, give up less, stay focused, and know that our heart's desires were just around the corner?

What an amazing time Spring is and I shall now wait with more faith knowing that my own spring, my own new creations, my own dreams, will bloom, too.

Many Blessings,
Kamin

Abundance Recommendation Center

Kamin Bell — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 06:47:00 GMT

One thing I love to do is share new finds. If you are on my newsletter list, you should have received, or will shortly, an email recommending a great book from a friend of mine, John Seeley entitled "Get Unstuck! The Simple Guide to Restart Your Life." To learn more about John’s special offer and to purchase the book, go to: http://www.getunstuck.com/Get-Unstuck-Special-Offer.html

My intention is to send only one newsletter recommendation per month and put any additional ones here.

I have recently stumbled on to two great finds. The first is a wonderful company, "Affirmagy.” I discovered their Abundance blanket one day after church in the bookstore. It’s a beautiful purple and I left it in its plastic case for months...because it was so beautiful. As the Universe would have it, I ended up sitting next to the founder of Affirmagy at a fundraising dinner in December! I promised Kristin I would use it and I truly have. I love it! I’ve given these to a few of my friends and they love them, too. Each blanket has fabulous inspirational messages.

The second, I discovered through Sharon Wilson, one of my teachers from last year. "The Instrument" is an AMAZING visual tool for the Law of Attraction. It's beautiful. I have used it many times and it even helped me prepare for

an internet podcast interview I did a few weeks ago (it will be posted soon). This tool will truly raise your vibration. And, you will receive a great PDF on Treasure Mapping at their website. Visit www.kaminbell.com/instrument.

That’s all for now.

Blessings,

Kamin

I Yielded

Kamin Bell — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 16:01:00 GMT

I am in the process of reading "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle. I am trying to read as fast as I can as Oprah's class begins tonight. I found myself on the pages yesterday and had to share. In a section marked, "The Peace That Passes All Understanding," on page 57, he writes, "Whenever tragic loss occurs, you either resist or you yield. Some people become bitter or deeply resentful; others become compassionate, wise, and loving. Yielding means inner acceptance of what is. You are open to life."

I was so struck by that statement. That has truly been my experience, I could have become bitter, jaded, angry and yet I found more love, more compassion, more contentment with my life and all that I do have. And, I am far more grateful than I ever could have dreamed as I write about in "Journey."

It is so cool to find oneself in someone else's words. I love it when I do and it helps remind me that someone else knows, shares and/or understands “my” story. We are truly not alone on this journey. We are all connected.

Blessings,
Kamin

I'm Back!

Kamin Bell — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 05:25:00 GMT

I’ve been away for what seems like forever. But, I’m back. I’m not sure where time has gone but I have been busy writing and speaking quite a bit on Journey and on my follow on project. More to come on that later.

For today, I’m just taking one small step of courage to come back, reconnect and recommit to writing here more often. I’ve got some cool new things to share soon. And, all in good time

So, better late than never... Here’s to a Great 2008!

Blessings, Kamin

The Firestorm Within

Kamin Bell — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 20:02:00 GMT

As I write, we here in California are experiencing a Federal State of Emergency in Southern, CA. My area is fairly safe from fires with the nearest approximately 15-20 miles away which seems close but it isn’t.

I am praying for safety for all and that an angelic, thick, foam of fire retardant and extinguishing agents miraculously covers the area and puts out the fires. I also think about how this takes form in my own life. The three things that contributed to the fires spreading are overgrown, dry brush, lack of humidity and high winds. So, when I look within I wonder where is the overgrown weeds that are cluttering my thoughts or dreams? Where in my life have I planted good seed that needs moisture and nurturing? And, where in my life do I have high winds, too much talk, not enough action or, where I’m letting a whirlwind of thoughts cause confusion or mayhem? Years ago, I was in an operational job that seemed to have lots of emergencies. I found myself "backlighting" fires on myself that got out of control by not paying attention to ALL that was going on. I would be too focused on the big emergencies, fires, and missing the small embers that were smoldering behind me.

Today, as I think of constructive thoughts as the fires rage outside, I realize there are three things I need to do to prevent my own firestorm:

Cutback the shrubs and weeds from my dreams. Watch my words since "words have life." Speak and think only of good. I attended a workshop this weekend by Greg Mooers of www.lifecamp.com where he asked us to spend 3 to 1 the amount of time talking and mental focus/prep on our dreams versus dwelling on the past.
Remember to nurture and water my dreams and goals. Don’t let them dry up from neglect. Visualize and keep pictures in front of me of what I want to accomplish.
Meditate. When my mind chatter gets out of control, I haven’t spent time in silence meditating. The other culprit is when I’m not living in the present moment. I’m either future fantasizing or catastrophizing (made up word ) or reliving the past. In the present there is only now. "Am I safe right now?" "Yes." And, breathe...breathe...breathe...

If you pray, please pray for no wind and that the fires miraculously go out, just like turning off a gas stove. If you don’t pray, send good thoughts and love to those who are living the devastation of their homes. And, take a moment to Weed, Water and Meditate as necessary for your own life and dreams. Oh yes, and be grateful.

Abundant Blessings, Kamin

Tagged again!

Kamin Bell — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 03:47:00 GMT

My dear friend, Felicia Slattery sent me an email back in March saying that she had tagged me which meant that she had listed my site as one of the blogs she's hung out at. Well, she got me again. Second time's a charm. She has asked me to share 5 favorite websites. The rules of the tag are:

MUST be clean. No R rated sites.
Only FIVE links.
MUST tell 5 people.
A link back to the person who tagged you
Lara’s Placeis the meme originator

The 5 Web Resources I Use the Most as a Coach and for my writing are:

One of the most amazing resources I discovered a few years ago was www.changingcourse.com by Valerie Young. It has a lot a fabulous information for anyone wanting to change a hobby into a profession or make a career change.
Another site by Valerie is Fast Track to Your Dreams community. I joined this community back in January and it truly has been a life changing opportunity. It gave me the resources and support I needed to follow my dreams to write, teach and speak.
The book I will launch soon was written as a part of my Masters project for Spiritual Psychology. I am pretty good at writing, however, I needed an editor to smooth out the edges and Linda Dessau has really been a great asset to me with my book.
As I've mentioned, teaching is one of my core passions. This year I received my Certified Teleclass Leader (CTL) designation through www.TakeaTeleclass.com. You can find lots of great classes...including mine
A dear friend of mine is Reverend Diane Harmony, author of 5 GIFTS for an Abundant Life. I am a 5 GIFTS Facilitator and was recently appointed as a Director-at-Large on the board of her company. We are working hard putting a fall retreat together which will be very fun.

So, I get to "tag" 5 other bloggers and discover their 5 favorite web resources. I've chosen several of my buddies from my Fast Track community:

Jane http://www.risingsparrowpress.com/
Steve http://www.stevecoxsey.blogspot.com/ new blog http://www.chasingwisdom.com/
Della http://dellasnewlookdesigns.blogspot.com/
New Moon Angel http://newmoonangel.blogspot.com /
Ken http://creativityman.com/

Have fun learning new places to visit online!

Blessings,
Kamin

Living Your Dreams

Kamin Bell — Sun, 19 Aug 2007 23:08:00 GMT

There is a man at my day job that whenever asked how he's doing, always answers "Living the dream." He always has a great smile and seems to be happy no matter what is going on around us.

Recently, I thought about that statement for my own life. I had to smile because I realized in many, nearly all, ways I am living my dream.

I haven't been writing my blog for the last couple of months because I've been writing/teaching/speaking which I discovered earlier this year are my core passions. I identified them when I read and took The Passion Test by Janet Bray Attwood and Chris Attwood, which I highly recommend. This year has been about getting into greater alignment with what truly matters to me and how I want to live my life and my purpose. It feels wonderful that I am really living my dream.

I have 2 ebooks that I have been working feverishly on to complete. They will be on my website within a month. One of them has been in the works (mostly running around in my head) for over 10 years and I'm very excited to release her to the world. Nervous, too, but that's to be expected.

As for teaching, I completed teaching a 4-week teleseries called "Reconnect to Your Dreams and Jumpstart Your Life." I used the second ebook to teach from during the series which was a great tool to discover dreams and take action. My speaking dream was fulfilled, also through a teleclass, I gave on the online community Ryze. I am now actively looking for addition ways to teach and speak.

So, are you living your dreams? If not, when is your turn to start making your dreams a reality?

Run Through the Dream

Kamin Bell — Sat, 26 May 2007 18:26:00 GMT

This morning I was watching my 6 year-old nephew's baseball game. One of his teammates hit the ball and started for first base. His first base coach was yelling for him to run and then yelled, "Don't look around. Run for the base!" I had already been mulling over the idea of focusing on the goal, when this perfect example appeared right before me amongst a game of first graders.

As the youngster started to look around, there was a moment of hesitancy that allowed the ball to reach first base ahead of him. In this particular game, he wasn't out as the rules are modified for the younger kids. However, have you ever seen this a track and field event, where even a split second can cause an opponent to blow past and win.

Well it's the same when we go for our dreams. If we look around too much, if we compare ourselves to others, it can cause hesitancy within us. Questions and comparisons can arise like: "What was I thinking" or "Who am I to do this" or "It's already been done" or "Wow, look how successful they are. I can't do that."

This entry is a reminder for me to run my own race, don't look to the left or right, just run full steam ahead. I can get distracted by looking around and need to stay focused, as I've written before My race is steady and sure, as long as I don't try to compete or compare with anyone else.

One of the other lessons the coaches at my nephew's game were teaching the children was to run through the base. Don't just barely tap the base but run full steam ahead all the way through the base. Another great lesson for goal setting. Have you ever reached a goal and you just limped in? The goal took every ounce of energy just to barely make it? Well I have. Now, with that image of those coaches on the field screaming to the little ones to run through the base, I can look at my dreams and goals and set an intention to run through achieving them, full speed, to tag the dream, and go for more.

Shiny Pennies

Kamin Bell — Fri, 04 May 2007 03:58:00 GMT

A few weeks ago, I was talking to one of my coaches (yes, I get coached, too) and she asked how she could support me with the projects that I am working on. I mentioned that I sometimes have difficulty focusing. I have lots of interests and can get a bit distracted. She immediately said, "Shiny Pennies." Oh, I had to laugh and acknowledge that I love shiny pennies! I'm constantly finding new things to try, study and buy. I have many, many pennies. However, as we analyzed them, I realized my shiny pennies have gone from a wide array of interests to a narrowing path. My beautiful pennies are starting to show a direction, a plan, a focus. Many of my pennies have guided me to clarify my passions and purpose as a teacher/writer/speaker.

I am so grateful for my many pennies. Understanding my path has allowed me to make better choices when other pennies present themselves. I simply ask, "does this support my passion or purpose?" If not, it's not my penny. I am now able to set clearer intentions and follow through with greater ease and grace.

How about you? Where are your pennies? Are they scattered about? Do you notice any similarities in your pennies? Is there one penny that's shining brighter than the others as if to say "pick me, pick me?" It could be a dream you've had that just doesn't want to let you go but doesn't seem possible either. It could also be a feeling inside that you're just not living your purpose? Take a look at your pennies and see if they might just be showing you a path to your passions and purpose.

What Looks Like Lazy...

Kamin Bell — Wed, 28 Mar 2007 14:03:00 GMT

can be so many other things. I recently coached someone regarding going for a new job. We discussed the actions he should take and the next steps. And...nothing. There are times that I am tempted to get frustrated when someone doesn't follow through, but how can I? I know for them, as I know for myself, that it's not lazy. I have watched myself over the years not do something I needed to or not go after something I want. I used to say I was a procrastinator. But I know better now. Sometimes is just plain old fear. But that fear holds information. What am I afraid of? What am I afraid will happen to me? Am I ready to do that thing I'm putting off? Do I need more information? Is the timing right? Is it fear of looking stupid or making a mistake? That's been a big one for me to deal with. I'm a recovering Virgo perfectionist. I work at being willing to be less than perfect and being willing to simply try.

And, sometimes I have to trick myself. Yesterday, I needed to send a long overdue email requesting assistance from someone (another challenge of mine, asking for help ). On the way home I had to stop at Target for a few things. And, since it's Easter season, my favorite candy, the Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs are in stock. I'm only allowed to buy 1, though. So, I promised myself that I could have the egg after dinner and only after I sent the email. Boy that egg tasted great knowing that I had followed through on my promise. Sometimes I have to set a timer for 15 minutes to get something started or completed. And, sometimes I journal to work out the feelings that are present and holding me back from doing what I know I must. And, sometimes it's recognizing the difference between a "should" and a "must" and following my heart.

So, no more labeling lazy or procrastinator. There's just some nugget of growth behind it that needs to come forward. Some stone to look under and say "hmm, isn't that interesting. I wonder what I'm afraid of?" and then go conquer it.

Life Happens

Kamin Bell — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 19:37:00 GMT

Sometimes life gets in the way of our dreams. And, we have to deal with it. I started to apologize for having not written in a while, to whom I'm not sure, mostly to myself. But there isn't anything to apologize for. Life happens...and sometimes our dreams, desires, and goals need to take a back seat while we put out the fires of life. For me, my day job as a web manager, took precedence, and nearly all of my energy too, for the last month or so. We had a project that needed everyone at the company's attention and, since I consciously manifested this well-paying job, every once and a while it extracts payment. I'm smiling at that last sentence. It's actually quite profound. If only I'd thought of that when I was in the middle of our turmoil and could have said "It's only extracting a payment for services rendered and payments received." I have told my teams over the years that there are days when they will be so underpaid for their hard work and there will be days when they are so overpaid (due to 'hurry up and wait') that they'll feel like they should have given back some money. It all balances out. So, I just went through a balancing period

Our dreams and our lives balance out, too. Over the last few weeks, I kept visualizing, coaching, reading, taking classes, and learning something every day for my business. I kept the pilot light of my dreams lit and now it's time to turn up the flame.

So, when life happens, keep dreaming, keep visualizing, keep Believing (with a capital "B"), and keep moving forward, inch by inch, until you can rebalance.

What if you believe?

Kamin Bell — Thu, 01 Feb 2007 05:10:00 GMT

When that line came to me months ago, I was struck by how it truly represents who I am. One of the things that I am most known for is my encouragement to people to believe in themselves and to believe in their dreams.

What if you believe you can do anything? What if you believe that you were put here for an amazing purpose? What if you believe that the dreams in your heart that call to you, that truly scare you, is the Universe whispering it needs those dreams to come through you? What if you believe that there is someone, me, who believes with you and that together we can find a way to manifest your dreams?

I believe that whatever calls to you, whatever your heart desires, desires you. You are a unique creation and you deserve to realize your dreams. I also believe in "heaven on earth." I believe that our job is to find our way back to that place...if even for a moment.

Have you ever experienced "heaven on earth?" I have, especially with my nieces and nephews. There's nothing like when a child cups your face and looks into your eyes, while sucking his thumb. Or, holding my niece consoling her as she whimpers for her mother (who I'm trying to let sleep a few minutes longer) and she quiets down as long as I hold her. Or, a breathtaking sunrise over the mountains. Or, a gratitude walk with God, just appreciating everything I have in my life. Or, coaching a client and because of the connection and movement during our session, at the end, feeling like I've added to the sum total of loving in the Universe.

So, what if you believe that we're suppose to have many, many, moments like that, both in your everyday life and in your work. What if you believe that it's possible to do what you love and be prosperous? What if you believe that you have a right to be prosperous and abundantly supplied? And, what if you believe that anything is truly possible? How would you look at tomorrow? Would you see the abundance all around you? Would you answer the call on your life? Would you find a way to take just one single step toward making your dreams come true? Would you ask for help and find someone who could believe with you?

I am here to tell you "it" is possible...anything is possible. And, if that's true, then dream big, take a chance and believe, and take a step in that direction and watch the magic. Watch as support comes from everywhere, and even the least likely places. Just believe.

Many Blessings,
Kamin

Hello

Kamin Bell — Sun, 21 Jan 2007 03:11:00 GMT

Hi and Welcome! If you are wondering how to pronounce my name, it's Ca-meen, like El Camino. When I was young twenty-something, I used to use my name to distinguish friend or foe by how they pronounced it. With age comes wisdom and I've let go of the foe aspect. And, since I'm introducing myself we may not be friends just yet but we have manifested each other at this time for a reason. And so the adventure begins

You might as well know that I am new to the world of blogging. When it was first introduced, I remember reading someone's blog and thinking this is their personal diary...and they probably shouldn't be sharing these thoughts with the general public. It wasn't until recently I discovered it is so much more.

I decided to go with the coins in the header because what I am most passionate about is helping people manifest more abundance in their lives. It's what I've studied and what I know for myself. You can have abundance in many areas - finances, material possessions, health, friends, peace, joy. I mostly focus on finances but the principles I teach can be applied to anything. I used the same principles to attract more friends into my life years ago...amazing, beautiful, divine beings. I also used the same principles to attract a wonderful, awesome man (he's divine too).

And, what I'm best known for amongst those who know me best is attracting money and things, including a beautiful car and a to-the-specification apartment (I'll explain more about that in a later blog). I also attracted the school of my dreams...literally! In January 2003, I made the decision to take seriously my dream of studying psychology. For years I had looked at different schools and programs. Well, that February I happened to get snowed in at my sister's home in the northeast. There had been a book staring at me the whole weekend and because of my delay due to weather, I read it. The book was We Are the Beloved/a Spiritual Journey by Kenneth Blanchard. It is a gift size book and only took a few hours to read. When I closed that book, I turned to my sister and asked her to pray with me that I would find a "psychology program from a spiritual perspective." I had already looked at seminaries and didn't want to come from a particular religious perspective. I believe in God and wanted that to be a part of my learning. I don't even recall what part of the book that gave me that knowing, I just knew. A couple of weeks after I returned from that trip, I had breakfast with a wonderful friend, Reverend Diane Harmony, author of one of my favorite books, 5 GIFTS for an Abundant Life. I told her the story and about my revelation and she recommended the University of Santa Monica for it's Masters in Spiritual Psychology program. I got chills immediately, knowing I had to go. And, in 2005 I received my degree from USM.

So, attracting and manifesting can take on many forms. Money is just one of them. Helping people attract more of what they want in their lives is my passion. I can talk on it all day...obviously It simply makes my heart sing. You see, I just believe that God, Higher Power, Spirit, Source or however you might refer to that presence that is with and in all things, wants us to have more. In the Bible it states, "[Christ] came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." I know what it's like to go broke, be broke, and to be broken. I know what it's like to lose everything and to find my way back to abundance in all areas.

That's enough about me for now. Please feel free to read more about me at my website. You can also sign up there for my 7-part complimentary e-course called "7 Steps to Realizing Your Dreams." I will be conducting teleconferences over the next few months on abundance so check back for my upcoming schedule.

Thank you for visiting with me.

Many Blessings,
