A Case of the Block

Yep, I got it bad. I have a case of the block, writer's block. Rather than get frustrated by the lack of words landing on the page in front of me, I am going to go with the flow. I am going to feel the block, enjoy it, and have faith that it's only here for a short visit, very much like the annoying relative that we can only handle in small doses.

Now I could sit here and pound my head on the keyboard in hopes that it would help jar something loose, but some how I don't think that will help. The end result might be a headache and the imprint of keys across my forehead. So instead, think I will just let go and not worry. I'll take this as a sign that maybe I need to recharge my brain by just being and not forcing anything to come out. Yep, that's what I'll do.

OK, I'm off to enjoy my writer's block. Have a great week everyone!

For the Love of Learning: More Notes to Self

I'm a firm believer that from awareness comes choice. It's from the choices that we make that we change and growth and I'm all over that! This last weekend I became more aware of the following:

1) When you show up as yourself and have fun, others want to participate in that fun. Think about it, aren't you more attracted to someone who exudes fun rather than the opposite?

2) Being catty and judgmental of others doesn't make one attractive. As a matter of fact, it has just the opposite effect. Judging others is often a sign of insecurity and it truly does block the flow of fun.

3) Everyone has different tastes in what they like/prefer. That means that you don't have to be someone you're not or kill yourself trying to look like someone other than yourself. All you have to do is be your most authentic, genuine, and loving self. Why? Because there is someone (if not many someones) who will love you just as you are.

4) Valentine's Day is a day to celebrate love; love for others, but most importantly, love for yourself. Truly loving yourself is a great way to bring more love to you.

My friends, embrace and love who you are, because there is not another wonderful soul like you. I know that is what I will be focusing on from here on forward.

P.S. Many thanks to all my wonderful readers and friends for promoting the free e-course Getting Your Groove On; 10 Kick Ass Ways to Supercharge Your Life. The response has been overwhelming and I am truly grateful.

From My Heart to Yours

(Side Note: For those that also read Make the Most of U, I apolgize for the redundancy.)

Dear Friends,

You can't turn on the news, tune in the radio, or even go to your local coffee shop without hearing about how tough things are. It's all the buzz and can be rather overwhelming and consuming. I understand the feelings created by the messages we are hearing and I'm heartsick by the fear and hurt those messages are creating. They are holding many back, stopping people from truly living, blocking the flow of fun, and draining our energy.

Call me an idealist or tell me that I have my head in the sand, that is fine, but I refuse to believe that there isn't goodness out there, fun to be had, opportunities to be explored, hearts to connect with, awesome people to meet, and potentials to consider. I'm not going to believe that we are self destructing and all is lost. Instead I would like to ask you to join me in creating a positive change and help to turn things around at the personal level.

I want to support you and I want to support others in amping up the energy, building more confidence, and creating more positives! In order to do just that I've created a free e-course called Getting Your Groove On: 10 Kick Ass Ways to Supercharge Your Life.

Why is it free? What's the catch?

It's free because I want to give back. I want give back to my community, to the people that I care about and to those they care about, heck to the world at large. I want people to feel empowered, to find their voices again without fear of obligation other than the obligation that they make to themselves to keep moving forward and to being the very best they can be.

My friends, we all have so many amazing positive qualities, skills, and attributes and it is time to bring them forward. It is time to stop the fear, to stop the negativity, and to create a more positive and loving world...that starts with each of us individually. So please, I'm asking you to accept this e-course as my gift to you in support of doing just that. The only thing I ask is that you share this gift with others so that we may continue to stay strong and be the amazing, loving people we were meant to be and are. Won't you help? You have the power to make a difference.

Thank you!!

Much Love and Peace to you...

Pam
