Sometimes life's lessons are simple...and they require a little growing up.
I have noticed that I have had a funny feeling inside about that phrase "growing up". It sounds demeaning, or at least that is how I, in the past, perceived it.
But guess what?! It was just my perception.
I had been fearful of "growing up" in my business, and doing things on a larger scale....but today I see "growing up" in my business as EXCITING, and ADVENTUROUS...as there is lots of unknowns, and NEW TERRITORY ahead!
I wrote about the lesson I learned from one of my mentors just last week (happens to be on my other blog www.zsuzsiswim.blogspot.com ) about CELEBRATING, and living in that vibration instead of living in the fear vibration-which I have done in the past as sometimes the unknown stuff lead me to a fear based existence.
Today is different, I can celebrate the unknown, and have FAITH all is working out, my job is to just keep doing my part.
YYIIPPEE!
(I am learning a lot about blogs and postings, so stay tuned, there is new exciting stuff in the works, and I look forward to hearing from you!)

Staying on Focus
Today I realized that I let a situation that happened yesterday take me off focus.
The fun thing about self awareness is that when you do something that is not in alignment with what your goals and life's purpose is, you get "funny" feelings happening. For me the feelings resonate in the pit of my stomach, almost a low hum of anxiety if you will.
Lately I am getting better at recognizing when I am off focus, and having better results with a quicker turn around. Thank goodness for the lessons life and my God (I don't what you may call the Higher Power in your life) that I have recieved.
A light heart and a sense of humor is also imperative.
I am keeping it short today, as I have major things to accomplish, and I am going to Stay on Focus!

Lifting or Squashing?
I love to write, and as stated here and in my other blog http://www.zsuzsiswim.blogspot.com/ that I like to write with a bit of bold honesty and and what my experiences are.
I believe in karma-essentially what you put out, comes back at you. If you are genuinely kind, and literally want others to do as well as you want for yourself, then you are living in an energy of continual nonstop blessings. If you are full of ego, and fight, then you will recieve more situations from the universe that will show you that is how you get where you want to go.
Simple concept: understanding that we are all on the same playing field, no one person's experiences make them more or less then anyone else. Each person's "resume" is just as valuable as the next, although a "resume" is just a "resume"...you will never know WHO that person is until you invest a moment to ask, and have an immediate underlying respect for the fact they have valuable information too, in fact, you can learn something from everyone.
This concept is so simple that people just don't get it. It is also called a genuine respect for others and humility laced with sincere gratitude. Some of the greatest, most successful people I have been around, for example John Assaraf-look up who he is if you don't know-never treated me like I was less then him when we first met, we spoke and shared stories like two humans sharing time...very cool. Never once did he play the "I know more then you, or have more then you" card. Definitely a man of grace, and he earned my respect for it.
I heard a great thing last week...there are NO SELF MADE MILLIONAIRES. No one does life "on their own"...NO ONE. If you think you have, then you haven't any gratitude, respect or conscience to notice that there have been people along the way that have supported you, and you didn't even see it. I feel that squashing others to get to your podium is something that only comes back at you in the long run...most likely an underlying sense of that no matter what you achieve, you are not happy.
My journey has shown me that grace, dignity and respect in others are core characteristics.
Since I have learned that life is a weeding out process, I know to look for these characteristics in those I choose to share my life with.
Question: do you lift others up? inspire with who you are? lead by example? or do you look at others as means to your end? be honest.
