Article:   Be careful what you think and feel!   These days, it’s so easy to fall into under the spell of the media and the naysayers.  The more we watch, the more likely it is to adopt the negative thoughts and feelings of the news and people who have a pessimistic view of the world.   We all know them: people who believe they have a dark cloud following them around.  Well, they are correct, for they brought the storm upon themselves.    Here’s how it works:  whatever you focus on, whatever your feelings are put toward, is what will ultimately manifest in your life.  Dwelling on disease, financial difficulties, a sense of lack in general will serve to bring expression to it in your life.  Controlling the feelings you focus on is important; imagine only feelings that contribute to your happiness!   It’s all a function of the conscious mind impressing itself upon the subconscious mind.  The subconscious creates your reality and brings it into the physical world.  Be careful what you think and feel.  To express the notion I will be healthy implies that you are in a state of lack or illness.  By saying I am healthy puts you into a state of mind that what you want already is.  Support your health by addressing emotional disturbances in healthy ways and do not focus on feelings of regret or failure, for these serve to bring physical disruptions along with emotional.   Be positive, be happy, and behave as though your desires have already been fulfilled.  Watch your world change into the wonderful place you always knew it could be…er the wonderful place you know it is!  

To your happiness and success,   Diane Wing

Answer: Feeling stuck is an opportunity to reassess what is important to you and to identify and prioritize what you want in your life.   What you wanted a few years ago is probably not what serves you best in this stage of your life.   Clarify where you are right now and generate options that could move you beyond the "rut" you've been experiencing.  Don't edit yourself, but simply write down all of the things that come to mind as potential alternatives to how you've been working and being until now.  Sometimes it's difficult to see clearly for yourself, after all, you're so close to the situation.  If that is the case work together with a trusted friend, relative, or professional to determine what is holding you back and how it's affecting your work, relationships, and time.  Many times an alternate perspective is enough to create a shift in your consciousness to allow enough of an opening that you can get through to the other side.  A fresh perspective can be gained through conversation with friends, a reading, or a quiet meditation session.  If you choose a solitary path to break free of obstacles, ask for guidance to identify what is holding you back and the best way to overcome and move past it.  Be open to all messages that come through.
