Boost The Impact Of Affirmations On Your Life

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 17:52:00 +0000

by Steve Svanholm

One thing I often get asked is "how can I absolutely maximise the impact affirmations are having on my conscious and subconscious mind?"

The VAKS Method of stating affirmations is a powerful tool for programming and integrating affirmations on many levels of your being. It does this by working with our different ways of processing information, through the Visual, Auditory, Kinaesthetic and Spiritual centres. It allows for a more complete, holistic system of personal development using affirmations, and it supercharges their effect.

You can apply it for a general affirmation such as "every day I feel stronger and stronger" or a more specific goal such as "I am making $5000 dollars a month".

Here are the steps to follow:

1. Get clear

Meditate, breathe deeply, or ground yourself some other way for 1 minute and drink a glass of water.

2. State your chosen affirmation out loud

For example, "I am attracting more and more money into my life."

3. Repeat the affirmation for 30 seconds while performing Lazy 8's

(Part 1) First, hold your right thumb in the air and curl your fingers into your palm. Move your thumb in the air as if you are drawing the number 8 turned on its side (a lazy 8). Start with your thumb in the middle of the '8' and move up to the left and then down and around to the right. Go slow enough that your eyes can follow your hand.
As you make the movement repeat the affirmation and visualize what it looks like. Maybe, in this case, your inner sees a rain of $100 notes falling all around you.

4. Repeat the affirmation for 30 seconds with acupressure on the ears

There are about 400 acupressure points on your ears corresponding to virtually every major organ in your body. Close your eyes. Take your index fingers and thumbs and gently pinch the top of rim of your ears. Massage the rim working down to the earlobes and finishing there. Repeat. While you are doing this keep repeating your affirmation aloud. Really listen to the weight of the words.

5. Repeat the affirmation for 30 seconds while cross crawling

Standing, bring both hands above your head and lower one hand as you bend the opposite knee to 90 degrees. Touch the knee with the hand. Straighten the leg and return the hand overhead. Repeat with the other hand and knee. This switches on the right and left hemispheres of the brain. Look downwards towards your legs as you do this. This connects your mind more to your kinaesthetic realm of bodily feelings. While you cross crawl, say your affirmation aloud and feel how good it feels to have this quality in your life.

6. Spiritual Integration

Place your hand on your heart and say your goal aloud for thirty seconds. Keep your eyes closed and feel vibrations in your chest area as you do this. Allow the warm feeling of the affirmation to infuse your entire being.

Stay Focused & Get Jobs Done On Time

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 13:42:00 +0000

By Mark Foo

Focus is essential to getting your jobs done on time. Learning how to stay focused can be somewhat of a hurdle, but with practice you can better your skills and improve your focus through concentration. In the end you'll be rewarded for your efforts and you'll have learned one of the most important universal job skills.

Evaluate Your Current State

You should first take a look at how things are going for you currently. If you're having trouble maintaining your focus, you can try to evaluate the reasons why.

I've had times when I couldn't focus because my heart wasn't really in my work. I either had to get to the root of the reasons why I couldn't build up my enthusiasm for the subject, or I had to make a change.

See if you can figure out what might be keeping you from staying focused. You can start by being aware of your deadline at all times. Fight the urge to procrastinate and leave things for the last minute. You certainly don't want to be rushing. You know that you may be tempted to get careless when things are rushed. Your best work will be done when you have time to give your full concentration.

Eliminate Distractions

One of the biggest reasons why people lose focus is distractions. You need to remove distractions from your life in order to concentrate better. Everyone is likely to be distracted by different things. I'm occasionally distracted by the urge to check my email and favorite websites. Some others might be distracted by music, TV, or movies.

There are also the other kinds of distractions, the ones you don't intend on happening. Maybe a family member, child, or pet keeps pestering you while you're trying to concentrate on your work.

You can remove distractions by anticipating them. You know your weaknesses, so make yourself inaccessible when it's time to work. If you can, lock yourself away so that distractions can't even find you.

Improve Concentration

Your next step is to improve your ability to concentrate. It's not a skill you can learn overnight, but it's certainly a skill you can learn.

Start off by telling yourself that you can only think about one thing at a time. Placing all of your focus and concentration on just one thing will make it easier for you to think. Sure there are times when you'll need to juggle multiple thoughts, but when there's a job that needs to get done that should be your number one priority.

Another way to improve concentration is to focus on the "here and now". It's almost another way of forcing yourself to think of only the issue at hand. When you practice keeping your mind fully present you aren't distracted by any thoughts of things that happened in the past, or might happen in the future. When all of your mind power is on that one task, you'll be fully focused.

Maintaining Improvements

Once you've seen some results from your efforts, you need to work on maintaining your focus. You should always be striving to better yourself. If there's a certain job that you have to do with any regularity, you can constantly tweak your performance and see if you can improve your personal efficiency.

You should also make an effort to avoid burnout. When you're constantly thinking about how to stay focused, it's possible to start pushing yourself too hard without noticing it. You do want to be the best person you can be, but you also want to maintain your happiness and avoid too much stress.

Your Subconscious Mind - The Reality Creator?

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 07:15:00 +0000

By Martin J Church

Want to become a multi-millionaire? Looking to find true love and happiness? Then you need look no further than your subconscious mind! Our minds are truly our greatest treasures, for those who learn how to harness the power of the mind, there is nothing that you cannot then achieve.

Of course, there are some that have totally dismissed the concept of mind power and see believers as gullible or easily led. But, scientific studies also show that what and how we think creates our reality.

Scientist have also documented that what we think of as reality is no more than a manifestation of your subconscious mind. So it goes to reason that those who tap into their own minds can take control to shape their own realities.

To find the success you want, you need to reshape how you think: retraining negative thoughts, feelings, and emotions with positivity and faith in yourself. Even your nightly dreams and imagination need to reflect more positivity to help you get what you desire.

The most basic rationale behind mind power is that we are the ones to shape our realities through a common cause and effect relationship. Those that believe in the power of suggestion and channel it to your subconscious mind, you can tell it exactly what you want. From this, you will achieve your success as opposed to just drifting in and out of your current situation.

For your mind to work with maximum power, you will need to focus on improving your subconscious mind. Positive affirmations are among the best way to bring about a change in your thinking.

The employment of affirmations can help. This involves making very basic, simple statements in your mind throughout the day. This is done to eliminate a number of negative thoughts and sorrowful feelings. This will greatly aid in increasing your confidence and allow you to learn to trust the power of your mental thought process. Affirmations can center on any issue you are dealing with and it will give you the encouragement to lose weight, eliminate an addiction, or chanting that you will find true love.

But, you cannot just invest all your time in visualizing your dreams; you need to make steps to ensure they come true.

Close your eyes and 'see' the results you want. Visualize yourself losing 10 pounds of weight or buying a new home. Allow your imagination to run wild, feeling the sensations of accomplishing these goals as if they are actually happening.

Bring these visualizations into your life, by getting creative. Write down what it feels like to accomplish this goal, make a scrapbook to encourage you. Fill it with pictures of the new car you want to buy or the dream wedding you want to afford.

By changing the way you see reality and shaping your subconscious mind, you can also unlock supernatural talents. Psychics who can see into the future or past, people with telekinesis and those with other supernatural abilities are not born with a talent you don't have. They have just learned how to use their full potential and unlock the talents buried within the subconscious mind.

Through the positive nature of mind power, you essentially become the leader of your own life instead of a passive player. Your subconscious mind can even be the secret to living a healthy life free from disease and your physical ailments often start in the brain. Brainwave synchronization or audios that direct the brainwaves to a specific frequency are also a great help in this regard also. Yes, there are many ways to tap into your subconscious mind to deliver the results you desire.

Some Vital Steps to Personal Motivation And Growth

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:41:00 +0000

By John Wass

Inspiration is critical to staying motivated and getting ahead. If you are not really interested in what you do at work you will not stay motivated for long enough to realise your dreams. Go to take an honest look at how motivated you feel. Are you excited about your occupation? Or is it a drag? It is so easy to lose interest in what we do unless we are really excited about it. This sustains us through problems and setbacks. That makes sense, for sure. So love what you do now, or else go and find a way to do what you love!

Setting Goals. Short and long-term goal setting is vital for every on of us. How can you Get Goals if you do not Set Goals? They give you a clear path to run on, and are a vital part of your personal motivation. It is difficult to be motivated when unsure about the direction you are taking in your career. So take the time to write your goals out. This will then be a business plan for your life and your future. Review it daily, read your goals out loud, and make changes when you need to so that they are always up to date.

Make sure you have short, medium and long-term goals, and do not over-estimate what you can achieve in the short-term, and underestimate what you can achieve in the long term. So, be reasonable in these areas of your personal motivation. Can a written goal setting plan really help excite you? Definitely. Written goals are so important for you to feel more confident of achievement and creating the mindset you need to be a success.

Studying. Now do not let that word scare you or put you off. Studying personal motivation can be one of the most exciting and rewarding habits you can develop. There are now so many exciting personal motivation entrepreneurs who are offering their expert services to you, especially on the internet. And often much of this training costs you absolutely nothing! You just need to find a couple of mentors that you can relate to. You will most likely then happily invest in programs that will very quickly have a dramatic effect on your personal motivation.

Networking. Whether you are an employee, currently have a business or you are a professional, networking with groups of other people will provide essential elements for your personal motivation and your self developmemt. What is meant by the word networking? It means associating with a network of those you know or get to know. This could be social groups, sporting associations and clubs, and of course, business associations.

When you network it enables you to really expand contacts in any area you choose. You are able to meet and mix with a large range of others and in so doing, your personal motivation benefits markedly. Most successful entrepreneurs say that finding the right networking group was a turning point in the expansion of their business. You can make it easier by connecting with others either in your circle of friends or through the internet. Even when businesses are not connected, you will often find there are common areas and ways to work together.

Working together, a networking business group can help its members generate more qualified sales leads and solve problems faster and more efficiently. In fact, the isolation of working alone is of one the most difficult parts of being an entrepreneur. You can never be on your way to personal motivation without the help of others. Mutual support is motivating. With your networking team to rely on, you can accomplish more in less time and probably have more fun in the process. You will feel motivated to accomplish self improvement when you know you are not alone.

Self Improvement - Knowing Your Fears

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:18:00 +0000

By Leon Winter

Phobias can destroy an individuals opportunities for any development as well as success. Fear by itself can be disabling and can limit a person's ability to make it through life so at times when an individual's fear can rule their life, becoming bereft of reason. A person who allows it to rule their life can be prevented from leading a normal life. The sad fact is that the person who fears is not the only one affected, but as do their family, friends, and others associated with them.

Fear is good for you because it allows a person be on their toes and be mindful what's happening around them. A person can actually compel their fear to work for them instead of against them but then again, this requires a lot of self-control and some positive thinking. Fear can be caused by something that happened previously or perhaps by a belief that they are incapable of managing with something. There are fears that have a real basis, but many are just the creations of one's imagination.

A phobia is the term used for a fear of something, but these fears can be irrational so a phobia can be ridiculous and exaggerated such as a person's fear of water. Some people who have developed phobia that are well aware that it is not based on rational thinking but, they're incapable of controlling their emotions and rise above this irrational feeling.

Some people are quick to equate phobia with insanity but it is not fair to conclude that just because a person has a phobia, it means there is something wrong with their sanity. A phobia can be very embarrassing and even more so if they cannot control it and there are many who will hide when confronted with them.

Phobias can be simple like the simple fear of being in an enclosed area, or they can be complicated, such as an airplane related phobia however a social phobia can take the form of not being able to speak in public or of being surrounded by a crowd. Most phobias are characterized by sudden panic attacks like when a person is directly confronted with their phobia and where they're forced to face it. It is normal to be afraid because it is rational to have fears but irrational fear and is already without basis, is called a phobia. It's no longer a normal fear and can have a negative impact a person's lifestyle.

A person seeking to get rid of their phobic disorder should not seek the advice of doctors who will delve into the mind to find the actual cause and such an activity can be a waste of time since finding the cause of the phobia will not destroy it. What is a lot more critical is to have determination so that fears so that your fears will no longer affect emotions. If a person can figure out how to influence their own emotions their fears will no longer control them.

Spiritual Growth And The Words That We use

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 18:19:00 +0000

By Mark Walters

Our language presents to the external world what our inner world is like. Our thoughts are revealed through our emotions and our emotions are shown through our language. The language that we use and their impact on Energy Healing will be the focus of this article.

Our ideal state is achieved through the process of Spiritual Growth. Having achieved our ideal state we can see that our true nature easily shines through. And the creator has bestowed upon us our true nature.

To let our true nature shine through we need to remove the numerous filters that warp our projected inner beauty. Are these filters made of some mysterious substance? Both our thoughts and emotions give life to these filters. Both thoughts and emotions are put forth through our language.

The question is, why select words as the main focus of my attention? Thoughts or emotions could have easily been the main focus. I decided that language were the easiest to observe so I decided to select them for observation. And our friends and associates can simply show us our use of Language.

When someone comments on your emotions it is easy to disagree with their viewpoint. But if they said that you said "I hate everybody" or "I love everybody" that is tough to challenge. Growth is judged by the words that we use. Change your language and you can change your life.

The fleeting nature of thoughts make them difficult to directly change. If you were to try to follow your thoughts you would see that they go from subject to subject to subject. It is very hard to stop them long enough to see what is going on.

Your emotions are the same as your thoughts. Emotions have a tendency to just appear without warning. Usually by the time we recognize an emotional state, such as anger, we might be to far gone too be able to change what is going on.

Observing language is not the same. When you speak a sentence you have the ability to immediately change it. To either reorder the words or change the words altogether. Instead of saying "You make me mad" you could say "What you are doing makes me mad". These two sentences are very different.

You may wonder how this helps with changing the filters that block our true nature from coming through. Negative emotions are our main filters. Emotions such as fear, hate, jealousy, anger etc... These negative emotions are best replaced with positive emotions such as gratitude, love, patience, kindness etc...

By paying attention to what we say we can substitute the positive for the negative. The more positive and uplifting our language turned into, the more positive and uplifting will our thoughts and emotions turned into.

The positive will grow as the negative gets cleared away which lets our true nature shine through.

The Colors of Feng Shui Canada

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 00:10:00 +0000

By Adrian McCluskey

What's your favorite color? Colors are important in feng shui but unfortunately your favorites don't come into play. According to feng shui philosophy, colors have a direct effect over the level of tranquility in your home.

Feng shui is made up of five elements: metal, fire, wood, wind and earth. They each have an associated color or collection of colors that represents the energy of the element.

Earth - Light colors like beige or pale yellow are associated with the earth element. Earth stands for stability. When you're grounded in a solid relationship, it's the earth element at work. The light colors in this group lighten up your spaces making you feel as though anything is doable.

Fire - Associated colors in the element of fire are orange, bright yellow, pink, purple and red. Passion or heat is what comes to mind when thinking of fire. Either is an apt description of fire and as you might imagine fire gets your heart going which in turn creates energy.

Wood - Why do you think money is most often green? Trees are obviously made of wood and most often contain lush leaves of green. They are givers of life and Feng shui philosophy states that the wood element stands for prosperity and keeping with that theme of "givers of life", green and brown are the colors that fit.

Metal - If you've ever looked at metal you see how it has definite lines and shapes. In feng shui, metal brings clarity to your life. The colors gray and white represent these qualities.

Water - Water regenerates the body and the spirit. It cleanses you and also stands for abundance and plenty. Black and blue represent water and their use pushes the feeling of purity and refreshment in your home.

Don't be afraid to add color in your home or office. How and where you use each color is governed by the feng shui energy map of your living area. You may have never thought that red could be an energizing force in your home but according to feng shui principles, it can. Color isn't just for the walls but also the artwork, furniture and accents. It inspires your dreams, opens your hearts and brings new life into your home.

Subconscious Mind Power

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 19:21:00 +0000

By Ronald Bigley

Remember the phrase 'if you build it, they will come'? It's true " at least when you phrase it like this: if you think it, it will happen. Basically, if you can conceive it in your mind, it can come true.

Your subconscious mind power has the capability to do almost anything you want to do in life. It's a capacity which all of us already possess. Your mind has more power than you've ever imagined " an incredible amount of power, in fact. Your subconscious mind power can heal you when you're sick, make you feel great or lower than low and do anything that you can focus your thoughts on.

Skeptical? It's perfectly understandable, but subconscious mind power is absolutely real. Just consider the placebo effect for a moment. When clinical trials are performed to test new medications, there are always two groups of participants in the study " people given a placebo and people given the drug itself. Both sets of participants are told about what the drug can do as well as about the side effects which may occur.

In many trials, you'll see both the experimental groups and the control groups claiming to have pretty much the same results. Both groups think that they're receiving the medication and their subconscious mind power goes to work, making them actually experience the effects which they believed would occur.

This is why some physicians don't mention the possible side effects of a medication when it is first prescribed to a patient. They are fully aware of the placebo effect and know that many patients may believe that they are suffering from these side effects, no matter how unlikely this may be.

The power of suggestion is one of the best ways to tap into your subconscious mind power. If the placebo effect works in the world of medicine, you can put it to work for your own self improvement as well. Suggestion is among the most effective means of communicating with the subconscious mind and gaining access to the full potential of your mind power.

Many people find visualization to be a useful technique to get in touch with their subconscious mind power. Best of all, visualization is easy to do. You can simply close your eyes and try to 'view' anything that you want in your mind's eye.

You can also use a method which many find to be very effective either in conjunction with visualization techniques or all by itself. This is to have a physical image of your goal around to remind you of it and to help you to focus your thoughts. Let's say that you'd like a particular car. You can find a picture of this car or best of all, a photograph of yourself with this car. Keep the photo somewhere that you'll see it every day. The more often you see the picture, the stronger of a focus you'll be able to develop on this goal in your mind and the more of your subconscious mind power you can bring to bear on your objective.

While some people have known that these techniques work for some time now, it is only in the last few years that we've come to see exactly how these methods may work.

As physicists know, at its essence all matter is made of pure energy and there is evidence which suggests that our minds may be able to influence this energy. For instance, there is the famous thought experiment of Schrodinger's cat. Some speculate that matter cannot exist unless it is being observed.

If this is true, it's our minds which create matter, not the other way round. If the entire universe is actually a creation of our own subconscious, then subconscious mind power can be used to influence the world around us.

There have always been religions which have held the belief that our own minds create the world and the universe. Now, science has started to approach this idea from its own standpoint. No matter what (if any) religious beliefs you may hold, you're probably a believer in the laws of physics.

Obviously, you'd want to use your subconscious mind power to change the world if you had the ability. It just takes learning to harness your mind power instead of letting it have control over you. You can get started by using affirmations and visualizations to reach your subconscious and let the power of your own mind help you to achieve your goals. Begin with a small goal and as your subconscious mind power grows stronger, you'll find it easier and easier to make the things you want a reality.

How To Make Sure Your Goal Setting Is Correct

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 13:44:00 +0000

By Mike Jones

For many people goal setting is one of the toughest things to do. It's not because we do not have desires or dreams. Often the problem is lack of know how. People do not like to fail so setting certain attainable goals is something they will just not do. Find out how to reach your desires with some easy tips. It is not as tough as it may seem or people make it.

One of the easiest ways people can reach their desires and goals is, get a notebook. Write down what you want to accomplish so you can look at it daily. Do not worry what you write as it can always be changed later. Be open about what you want to get done. It will be easier to accomplish if you make it targeted and reachable.

2. Make your goals specific. One of the biggest mistakes people make is making them too vague. It is much easier to reach something when you know exactly what you want or must do. Vague suggestions or desires just give you a chance for failure. Be as specific as you can for greater success.

Many people need to learn to keep things simple. Do not make it tougher on yourself to complete your desires. By knowing step by step what you want to do in a simple format will equal success. Simple goals mean you can get more done as well and build your confidence.

4. Share your goals and ideas with others. Getting the support of others around you is important. They can help motivate you towards your desires. Sometimes we need a little push to reach them. Having support in place is a very good idea.

5. Your goals need to make sense as well. Do not make something that is not reasonable. Your goals and desires are reachable, but if you are starting out make it rational. Going overboard will just make it tougher for you to reach your outcome. Know what you're capable of, and do not try to do more than you can.

A lot of times people get lost when you talk about goal setting. They are confused on what they are supposed to do. The key is always taking your time and never rush into any decision. Think things through slowly and carefully before setting any goal. This will help you see greater success and at a much quicker rate. No matter what happens, whether success or failure, goals will always be a part of our everyday lives.

End Panic And Anxiety Attacks Now

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:43:00 +0000

By Jeff Hope

If you suffer from anxiety or panic disorder then you've lost far to many days to grips of panic attack. Without warning a panic attack can strike at any time or place. You don't even have to be in a dangerous environment for a panic attack to strike. In this article I'd like to make sure you understand common symptoms of anxiety attacks and effective panic disorder treatment.

Have you ever needed to go to a social engagement but couldn't leave the house due to an anxiety attack? Or worse yet be in a social setting and be struck by a gut wrenching panic attack? Sometimes your feelings can be so confusing in these moments as the your mind and body are frozen with anxiety

Conflicting emotions can be confusing. We've been looking forward to a social event with mild trepidation. There will be so many people there that we'd like to see such as family, friends, or a hot date. As the time draws near, we begin to feel the first sensations of a panic attack.

It's happened before, it's time to leave and you can't step through that door. Panic and fear have gripped you and won't let you leave. You end up embarrassed and call with some lame excuse as to why you couldn't make it. Now you've missed the event and suffered yet another panic attack.

Panic attack sufferers can relate to the following symptoms all to well. Anxiety attacks can include; feeling faint, nausea, dizziness, blurry vision, pounding heart, sweaty palms, and fatigue. You may also feel paranoid or intense fear for no logical reason.

So is there an effective panic disorder treatment? The answer is a resounding YES! The effective options for panic disorder treatment are; drug therapy, psychotherapy, and self help programs. Each has distinct pros and cons with self help programs being one of the top choices.

Drug therapy can sometimes reduce the severity of your panic and anxiety if you find a drug that agrees with your body. Many time the side effects can be too much for users to bear. Also drug therapy requires an indefinite commitment to the drug which is pricey.

Psychotherapy can be expensive but can be effective in treating panic disorder if you happen to find a therapist that you can connect with. Finding a therapist that you can trust and relate to can be time consuming and costly. A good psychotherapist can run from $100 to over $300 per hour (session). Group therapy is a more cost effective option if you don't mind airing your dirty laundry publicly.

The final and extremely effective panic disorder treatment is self help programs. Don't worry, with self help programs there's no group therapy sessions to add unnecessary anxiety to your life. With a little dedication and determination you can work through effective treatment programs in the comfort and security of your own home. Effective programs follow the exact same treatment procedures as you would follow in a psychotherapy session.

Discover Your 'Giving Bee' Profile

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:55:00 +0000

By David Anttony

Bumblebees are all giving by nature. They give naturally to maintain the world of abundance. But each bee actually takes a different standing in maintaining the colony as well as the flower garden. So, I thought human beings are the same. We are all naturally giving and sharing. But we express our giving in different ways. So, here it is a 'giving bumblebee' chart where you can find your bee type. Watch out for the following bumblebee analysis! The more you share your value as a giving bees, the more we can all do together to make a difference.

Bee type analysis

1. Change-making bumblebee

A giving bee who likes to see change - who spots every opportunity to do something better and worthwhile. A change-making bumblebee often starts up new interesting projects for others to participate in. A flexible thinker who can collaborate well with others while often taking a leadership role in making change. Many entrepreneurs and inventors are this type of giving bumblebee. They are not afraid of creating change.

2. Believing bee

A giving bee who believes in one core ideas very strongly and inspire others to follow. Rather than changing all the time and being too flexible, this giving bee attracts others by being solid like a rock and integral to the steadfast belief and vision. Some of the religious leaders as well as political leaders are this type of giving bumblebee. Believing bumblebees makes for a great leader who attracts huge numbers of followers. This bee also can be a great follower who strongly supports an existing belief and excites others to come together.

3. Caring and nurturing bumblebee

A giving bee who may not stand out as a firm leader but actually are the biggest heart focused giver. A caring and nurturing bee is selfless in giving and is always first to take the giving action when seeing anyone in need. Though this bumblebee seems gentle and caring, the strong desire to give and care for others drives this giving bumblebee to exhibit some amazing giving acts. Many people who dedicate their lives to giving (volunteering, community service etc) are this type of bee. Giving is more natural to them.

4. Supporting and uniting bumblebee

A giving bee who sees the greatest value in connecting and collaborating in effective partnerships. This giving bumblebee is very focused on finding existing great ideas, mechanisms, philosophies or beliefs to benefit the community. It tends to support what resonates with him/her more often than coming up with a brand new way. A supporting and uniting bee is less attached to own way and has more flexible mind while being quite strategic about what to support. Rather than taking direct action emotionally, this bee sees the value in creating the sustainable unity. Long-term 'quiet' charity givers and those who take low profile in community giving but stick to the same project for a long time are usually this type of bee.

Preventing Stress The Practical Way

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 17:19:00 +0000

By Esther Tan

Each person reacts to stress in a different way. Some can handle a lot without exerting too much effort, while others run away at the slightest hint of stress. Even with a variety of factors in the amount we handle, or the chain of events that we face each day, only one thing is for certain. When you leave stress alone, it will eat you alive.

We encounter stress all the time. We encounter stress wherever we go. It is not only the hard times that cause us stress. Things that bring us joy and happiness is also considered stress. Getting married, for instance, is something that can cause great stress for both the man and woman involved. This goes the same for moving, public speaking, or welcoming a new member of the family. This goes to show how much stress we encounter in our lives.

Stress often leads to burnout. This is especially true in the workplace. Learning how to manage stress helps us improve our outlook and response to the stressors that come our way. Sadly, only a few people practice it. This is because the fast-paced life that we live. We do not think that we have enough time for engaging in exercises to relieve us of stress. This could not be more wrong. Oftentimes, we just don't take the time for it. And besides, stress management doesn't only involve exercises.

If you feel that you don't have time for yoga, or jogging, or aerobics, or whatever, it doesn't mean you can never relax. It just means you need to approach stress in a different way. Changing the way you think when handling stressful situations can actually yield positive results. Staying on the positive side of things can help you manage stress before it even starts affecting you. Just do the best you can and move on.

Prioritizing is another example, if you experiencing stress because you are always caught up in your work it may just be because you have not outlined your priorities well. If this is the case, try getting an organizer so that you will be able clearly see how much you will need to handle each day. This will also prevent you from over committing which is maybe the reason why you are overworked.

Next, learn to understand Murphy's Law. Whatever can go wrong will probably go wrong. When something goes wrong and we are caught off guard, we are instantly put into the "fight or flight" state. We should understand that plans designed to be perfect tend to end up imperfect. Learn to understand that there will always be surprises in your life. This will serve as your emotional and mental padding for stress.

Basically, these examples do not require one to find a particular place to do it. The will and power to be aware of your actions and most especially take note of your thoughts is one very good means to fight stress.

Setting Goals Brings Out The Best In Employees

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 11:29:00 +0000

By Harriet Harman

In this installment of our management guide we look at setting goals. The setting of goals is one of the most significant, but often overlooked, tasks at work. However, by following some basic guidelines, managers and their employees can set and achieve goals that push themselves and their organization forward.

Managers often times assume that employees automatically know the goals of the company. This is not always the case, yet employees need to be aware of them in order to accomplish them. Timetabling regular meetings with employees to talk about the state of the company and future goals can have a great effect on employee morale. Employees that are briefed on where the company is going are more likely to be headed in the same direction.

Managers and their employees should meet to develop mutually agreed upon goals. Employees enjoy being involved in the goal setting process and more often than not achieve the goals if they played a role in setting them.

Simply setting a goal to increase sales outright does little to motivate the sales team. However, if the goal is to increase sales by 5% in the month of March, the goal becomes more focused and challenging. Goals needs to include amounts, times and dates. Being specific means a much better chance of the goal being accomplished.

If goals are established and then employees never hear whether or not they have been achieved, the whole idea of goal setting becomes without credit. Managers should update employees regularly throughout the time period set for achieving a goal to inform them how near they are to reaching it.

Ensuring everyone is focused on a common goal can be as simple as noting the goals down and sticking them in an easily visible area. To keep employees right up-to-date, management can even plot the progress toward the goals. This is advisable because only finding out after the allotted time has elapsed that a goal was not reached does little to boost morale.

Exercise and Fitness are the Key to a Good Life

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:26:00 +0000

By Sean Flynn

Good health, wealth and happiness are the key elements of a good life. Fitness involves regular exercise and a balanced nutritious diet. Regular diet and exercise is indispensable for a good life for any individual as it can keep ominous health conditions at bay.

Exercise is a necessity when you want to maintain a healthy and good life. Working your muscles has no direct bearing to your age. Staying physically fit is the goal and you can opt for exercises well suited to your body type and age. Exercise is undoubtedly beneficial for you, regardless your age.

Studies indicate that poor health in senior citizens is almost always associated with a poor lifestyle. Sedentary habits with almost no physical exercise coupled with an inadequate diet often lead to physical weakness which again is an open invitation for various diseases. Good life can be restored and the weak physical condition completely reversed with the aid of regular exercises and a nutritous and balanced diet.

Benefits of regular exercise are plenty but the most important benefits of a regular work out is protection against chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, osteoporosis and heart disease.

Regular work out can help to maintain or restore balance and agility which are often taken for granted but it is a serious problem particularly among older people. With increasing age our sense of balance deteriorates and muscles lose their firmness which leads to weakness and unsteadiness and contributes to mis-steps that can cause injury or major accidents. It thus becomes absolutely essential to adopt an exercise routine that can restore agility and balance and help avoid injury from falls and mis-steps.

Apart from improving the physical condition of our body, it also helps in improving the mental state. It can calm the stressed nerves and elevate the depressed mind. You can actually feel lighter after exercise session and this is the essence of a good life. The difference can be felt even more if you had been living a wayward life so far and then have suddenly switches to a restricted and disciplined lifestyle. When you work out daily, a chemical called endorphin is released from the brain. This is called good mood hormone that keeps you mood lighter and happier. Besides, after a complete exercise session you feel a sense of ?I did it? which undoubtedly works on lifting up your spirit.

Now coming to food habit, it needs special mention that without a balanced diet, healthy body is impossible to get. Your daily meal should contain balanced proportions of protein, vitamin, fats, fibers etc that are required for good health, hence good life.

The food pyramid can prove to be an effective guide if you are perplexed about the kind of food that you require. According to the guidelines, you need to have large servings of green vegetables and carbohydrates. Almost all basic food stuff like bread, cereals and pasta are carbohydrates. Intake of diary products, meat, sea food, eggs and nuts need to be moderate if you want to maintain a healthy lifestyle. You also need to be cautious about consuming fats, oils and sweetmeat. Eat them sparingly and you will be able to have a good life. Restricting saturated fats, cholesterol together with salt and sugar is a good idea. There is no point in sticking to a boring and repetitive diet. Eating different kinds of food will help you to stay healthy and have a good life.

Eating a wide variety of food is absolutely vital as it helps to meet our body?s requirements of vitamins, other essential minerals help your way to a good life. Apart from exercise and food, adequate sleep and rest are also important to enjoy a good life as they are good rejuvenators.

Do You Have a Big Enough Why?

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 18:22:00 +0000

By Michael Angier

Once you get clear on WHAT you want to achieve, it's crucial to know WHY you want it. If you have an important goal, it needs a big why. Otherwise, you won't have the determination and resolve to overcome the inevitable challenges you'll encounter in the process of achieving it.

Most people are too focused on the how and they miss the all important why.

When it comes to investing our precious time and energy into a worthy objective it makes a huge difference if our why is strong. If we have enough benefits-enough REASONS for the goal-we substantially increase our chances for success.

I believe the Universe hangs onto the answers we seek until it's convinced we're inspired by enough desire. When our desire is equal to the task, we find what we're looking for.

Weak passion, weak answers. Little zeal, little determination.

How's YOUR why? If you're not making the progress you think you should be making in achieving your goals, maybe you haven't inspired yourself with enough reasons why you want them.

Let's take losing weight. Many people have this goal. But based upon the average weight of North Americans, very few are achieving it.

But what if you HAD to lose weight? What if you were promised a million dollars to lose that extra 20 pounds you're carrying around? You could do it, couldn't you?

Of course you could. And all that changed was the payoff. Your why got bigger.

So maybe all that has to happen is for you to come up with enough reasons to lose the weight. There are many, of course, but have you ever listed them? Have you reviewed them? Do the benefits stir you with strong emotion?

Jim Rohn says, "When the why gets stronger, the how gets easier." I agree.

What can you do today to increase your motivation and determination to achieve the goals you've set? Make a good list of why you want each important goal. If you do, and if you review them often, you will be focusing not only on what you want, but why you want it.

It works.

Positive Thinking For Stress And Anxiety Management

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 10:25:00 +0000

By Eddy Kong

All of us encounter stress. It is part of our everyday lives. It is unavoidable. Stress only brings negativity when we react a certain way to stressors. Hans Selye, an endocrinologist, proposed that there are two kinds of stress. There is "eustress", which is good stress; and there is "distress" or bad stress. Eustress is the stress that's felt when there is a realization of something good that will happen after a certain ordeal. Distress, on the other hand, happens when one cannot adapt to stress.

Anxiety is a state of mind characterized by constant worry, uneasiness, and fear. While stress, or distress for that matter, is due to a negative reaction to what recently happened or what is currently happening, anxiety is a result of the reaction to an upcoming, possibly negative, event. For this reason, anxiety is often associated with fear and is sometimes confused with it.

Stress leads to various serious physical and mental conditions; anxiety being one of them. For this reason, stress management is of importance. Sometimes, people are already stressed, show signs of stress, yet they do not realize it. They go on and develop anxiety or panic disorders without knowing that it stemmed from being stressed for too long.

If you are stressed too much because of the bad things that happen to you, pause and realize that there are some good things that have happened. There are always better things to think about. If you already have anxiety, realize that you constantly fear something that isn't supposed to be feared. It comes natural for you to think of worst-case scenarios. It may surprise you that you rarely think about positive outcomes to something that you're anticipating.

Stress and anxiety have always been about the negative. Stress results from the negative past or present, while anxiety is fearful of a negative future. Having a positive outlook may be hard for those who have stress and anxiety disorders, but it's always a stepping stone to overcoming either one.

Some Facts About The Cosmic Order Service

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 05:25:00 +0000

By Jamie-Lee Day

The popularity of the Cosmic Order Service has reached new unprecedented heights in the recent years. However, it really comes as no surprise considering the number of celebrities who have publicly endorsed it and attributed their success to the cosmic order service. So, that makes the common man wonder, how does the cosmic order service work? What makes cosmic order work for some folks and not others?

If you want to understand the Cosmic order service, then you need to understand the mind. The human mind is one of the most intriguing things of the world. Your mind connects you to the Universe and everything within it. However, most people mistake the brain as a computer, wired to obey their commands. Brain is much more than that. You can manifest and have all that you have ever wanted. The one condition that needs to be fulfilled is that you have faith.

Recent studies have shown that the tiniest bits of matter known as quarks move about and when they jump levels, quantum leaps, they have the capacity to actually change the matter's make up. What makes them jump levels? The answer is; Energy. It is what the mind creates continuously. It makes sense that if you direct the energy to what you desire, you create your own reality.

Most people have no idea how they can bring about a dramatic positive change in the pattern of their life. They look around and see and hear destructively. They ponder on lack rather than abundance. They envy other's happiness and success and are sure that they can never be as happy as them. With just the correct change in your thought pattern, you can turn everything around in your life towards a positive direction, but it may not be as simple as it sounds.

For years, most people have operated out of negativity. Most people operate out of a scarcity mindset. They don't accept that the Universe has everything for everyone and it is in abundance. People worry about theur health, constantly think of new problems before the old problems are over and never really count their blessings or expect a great life. No wonder, they are disillusioned and feel that God really doesn't love them. They employ the cosmic order service and get what they expect.

Some people think that suffering is noble. They will be loved by God if they are miserable. They believe that they must keep working hard and keep slogging or they will not deserve and receive any thing good. They condition their minds to think and believe this way.

Your mind will only manifest what you ask it to. Ideas which say that it's a sin to have an abundance of health, wealth and happiness will only get you what you believe. You cant expect steak when you are actually ordering bread crusts in the cosmic order service.

You can bring about a dramatic and positive change in your life but for that you will have to go deep into the mind to undo years of negative conditioning. Positive thinking works only if your mind is convinced about what you are telling or repeating to it. You need to first get rid of every thought of failure that you have believed in so far.

Some psychological and ritual processes such as self-hypnosis, affirmations and yoga or any related mind relaxation and rejuvenation will help you connect to the positive energy. Listening to the correct sound frequencies is a recent development can allow your brainwaves to resonate to the state needed for meditation and connection to the universe.

These rituals and brainwave frequencies will prepare your subconscious mind to interact with the forces of universal energy by freeing the mind from all negative thoughts and create new and positive desires for a positive outcome.

Nothing comes free in this world. The price for whatever you desire from the cosmic order service is knowledge. The knowledge that you can be and have whatever you want in this very lifetime. All you need to do is get rid of old beliefs and instill new ones. This requires courage, patience and persistence but can lead to a lifetime of pleasure and happiness.

Unleash Your Creativity As A Way To Manage Stress

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 20:05:00 +0000

By Jamie Sue Tan

One way to relieve stress is to take your mind off of the stressor. If you're constantly stressed at work, try leaving work at work. If possible, don't bring home work over the weekend. Do something else. Give your family the attention they need. Engage in sports, hobbies, play video games or any other recreational activities.

Hobbies are activities that you enjoy. There is an element in hobbies that calms and relaxes us. This not only gets our mind off of stress, but it brings out our creative side. Artistic expression is a suggested method in relieving stress. It gives us an outlet of emotions when there's no one to talk to. Songwriters, for instance, write dark and sad songs; but you see them happy. They throw their sadness and anger into their songs. Pour your feelings into a poem, a blog, or a journal, and you may feel better.

Music is therapeutic. Music therapy has existed for a long time. Listening to music may help relax you. Classical and ambient music are the most commonly used genres for relaxation. For some people, rock music relieves them of stress due to the energy it brings with its aggressive sound. If you can play an instrument, grab it and play along with your favorite songs while listening to them.

Creativity has played a part in the works of various geniuses. Leonardo da Vinci had creative works that inspired some aspects of modern technology. The law of gravity came from the creative leap that Isaac Newton made when he observed a falling apple. This tells us that creativity is more than a mere stress-reliever. Creativity can be developed in any form of recreation. Video games, for instance, started out as a hobby. Today, game developers aim for gamers to develop quick-thinking and hand/eye coordination.

Video games come in different genres. These include, but are not limited to, sports, adventure, strategy, and shooters. Sports games can help develop the competitiveness in you which you may bring along when at work. They are also fun when played with a family member. Other video game genres, especially strategy games, force you to think about your next actions. This promotes creative thinking skills, which helps you be flexible in approaching problems. Being able to handle problems may help prevent the fight-or-flight response and ultimately, stress.

Binaural Beats, What are They?

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 17:57:00 +0000

By Carrie Spry

If you were to introduce two tones of different frequency into your ears, you could create binaural beats. For example, playing a tone with a frequency of 100Hz in one ear and playing a tone with a frequency of 114Hz in the other ear will force the brain to determine the phase difference between the two wavelengths of each tone. We naturally do this to determine directional information.

The signals integrate and become a third frequency or what we call a 'binaural beat'. The resultant beat of 14Hz is produced within your brain. The tone will sound like a wave or beat depending on the frequency. If the generated beat is 4Hz, then it will sound more like a wave, however if the beat is at 20Hz, it will sound more like a beat.

Stereo headphones must be used in order to make use of this technology. If you were to use speakers, the tones would mix in the air and not give you the desired effect. It can produce a monoraul beat, which can be used for brain wave entrainment (bwe). However, if the track was created for binaural beats, it should be used as such.

When first listening to these binaurals, you may initially hear a warbling sound until your brain adjusts. If you have a hearing loss in one ear, it does not reduce the effect of binaural beats. It's not how loud they are, in fact you could actually used them just below what we can naturally hear, and they would still be effective. Commonly, binaurals are masked with noise or music of some kind.

There is a lot of controversy over whether or not binaural beats can be used for brain-wave entrainment. According to Dr. Gerald Oster binaural beats can be used to produce beats from as little as 0.235Hz to as high as 26.25Hz. Oster also concluded that binaural beats would be insufficient for brainwave entrainment because the depth of the beat is only around 3 decibels or 1/10 the volume of a whisper.

Many companies use binaural beats as the basis for their products such as The Monroe Institute (Hemi-Sync), I-Doser, and Centerpointe (Holosync). The beats are usually mixed with noise, music, ambiance, or guided instructions.

There are other technologies which are more efficient like low-pass filter modulation, cross-feed modulation, isochronic tones, monaural beats, pitch modulation and auto-pan modulation. Every type has it's own limitations. Our products use a combination of these methods to achieve the best possible results.

The Issue Of Low Self Esteem

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 16:59:00 +0000

By Jane Sullivan Daniels

Among the top problems faced by people of this generation is the challenge of a low self esteem. According to psychologists, self esteem is the persons overall evaluation or appraisal of his own worth. To read, it seems quite simple, but ask someone "or better, ask yourself " what is your worth in your own eyes, and you will realize that it is not as easy as it sounds.

The reason most peoples self esteem goes up and down all the time is because in this modern society, everyone is always comparing themselves to other people and when self esteem gets knocked down it takes lots of time, reassurance and mentoring to bring it back up again. After self esteem has been painstakingly built up again, it can be knocked straight back down again by something as simple as someone saying towards you or one of your beliefs, especially if the person saying it is held in high regard by your social group or in society in general.

Despite what many books will tell you, simply making a point of saying I feel great to yourself every day will not really do much to help your self esteem. Instead what we really need is an in-depth process that goes down to the level of ironing out each individual insufficiency and negative experience or memory. For this, a true expert is required who is more qualified than simply having studies low self esteem. In order to receive the best help for your self esteem you need to have someone who has been in your shoes before and has come out the other end of it a happy man or woman.

It is usually thought that low self esteem is something that effects people who have not been successful in life and are disappointed with what theyve achieved, however the fact is that self esteem rarely has anything to do with physical achievements in life, financially speaking at least. There are people who have all the riches you could ask for and who still have very low self esteem which makes their lives hell.

There is a lot to be learnt about this important and sensitive topic and the best person to learn it all from would be someone who has been there themselves and has come out of it a happier person. If you can find a person like this, it would definitely be worth having a talk with them if low self esteem is a problem for you.

Whatever We Resist Persists

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 06:27:00 +0000

By Chris Arribbat

Guard every thought carefully. Be a conscious gatekeeper to your subconscious mind. Remember that whatever you think about, especially when combined with the emotions of desire or fear, you will attract into your life. So make sure you attract what you want for your life by constantly thinking only about what you truly want. Feed your mind constantly with new information, images and ideas of the person you want to be and the life you want to live. By creating this inner attitude of your mind, you change the outer aspects of your reality.

What they mean is that our outer physical world and circumstances are merely reflections of our inner mental realities. Our thoughts are energetic waves and they are subjected to the Law of Sympathetic Resonance. According to this law, when an object with a specific frequency vibrates and is brought near another object with similar frequency, it will cause the second object to vibrate as well. The classic example for this is that of a singer with a high-pitched voice breaking a glass. In science classes, this same principle is demonstrated by bringing a vibrating tuning fork to another tuning fork with similar frequency. The second tuning fork will start to vibrate on its own. In modern time, this universal principle is called the Universal Law of Attraction.

We cannot blame anyone or anything for what is happening in our lives. Unfortunately, we often have this unhealthy tendency to blame someone or something. We unconsciously look for someone to blame when things go wrong in our lives rather than accept that we reaped what we sow. Funnily, though, when good things come into our lives, we somehow believe we deserve them. We rarely look outside for someone to praise. If we would blame others for the bad things, why do we not praise others for the good things in our lives? Blaming others is our way of avoiding taking responsibility for our lives. As long as we do that, we will never be the master of our lives.

At the end of each day, review your day and count your blessings. Write these down in a little note book. You may call this note book your Gratitude Book. By doing this consistently, you'll be retraining your mind to focus on the positive aspects of your life. Why is this important? Because like attracts like. The more you focus on the positive in life, the more positive things will come your way. Altruistic Joy Altruistic joy is a concept borrowed from the Buddhists. It means rejoicing at other people's good fortune. This practice counters our tendency to be envious of another person's success. Each time we rejoice at other's success, we are basically planting joyful imprints in our mind, thereby sowing seeds of joy for our own future.

To open our heart to love, we must learn to love ourselves first. To do that, we need to start by forgiving ourselves for all our shortcomings and mistakes. We need to stop blaming ourselves. We stop blaming others and circumstances. It does not mean that we do not accept responsibility for our actions. What it does mean is that we recognise our weaknesses and mistakes and wish to give ourselves another chance to make our life work for us.Forgiveness is an expression of compassion. Our compassion should not be extended to just other beings but also to ourselves. If we are not compassionate to ourselves, it is difficult to show true compassion to others. So forgive yourself.

The Way Embedded Commandments Actually Work

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 05:52:00 +0000

By Jason Smith

Almost everyone has heard of embedded commandments who has studied covert hypnosis.

Embedded commandments were first invented by Dr. Milton Erickson for therapeutic purposes. He used embedded commandments to help people with headaches and chronic pain. Since then hypnotist have used embedded commandments for several different therapeutic purposes that include helping people quit smoking and to lose weight.

It didn't take long for some hypnotist to come up with the idea to use embedded commandments outside of clinical settings to see if they could seduce women and get raises at work. This is part of what is now known as covert hypnosis.

Needless to say, embedded commandments have not done well outside of clinical settings. I've never met one person who was able to use them to get what they wanted. Even the male seduction community has done away with embedded commandments because of the poor results! Besides, if embedded commandments truly were good tools for us to get what we wanted, then why aren't the hypnotist who teach them sitting on their own private island ruling the world?

So why is there all this hype in the hypnosis community over embedded commandments? The answer is quite simple: It all boils down to greedy hypnotists trying to make an extra buck by teaching fancy stuff that doesn't actually work. In a real life scenario, embedded commandments simply will not help you.

The reason why they don't work is because there is no clinical setting for the embedded commandments to survive in. It's sort of like what happens when you take a shark outside of an ocean--it dies because it cannot live outside of its environment. In order for embedded commandments to be successful, there must be a appropriate context for them to be able to take root in the person's mind. And a HUGE factor of this clinical setting is a clients voluntary action to sit before the hypnotist whilst the hypnotist continues to repeat the embedded commandments in different ways.

Embedded commandments require a lot of repetition and time to work, and sometimes the person doesn't act on them immediately. These facts alone make embedded commandments poor persuasion instruments within the covert hypnosis arsenal because a persuasion artist often does not have the time or opportunity to repeat them several times and to hang around until they take root. Plus, there are almost always distractions outside of quiet clinical settings.

An easier and more effective route to power persuasion would be to put into effect the types of hypnosis that can be practiced through behavior patterns. These are the disguised forms of hypnosis that have a better track record of actually persuading people, because behavior is more powerful than words alone.

What Your Body And Souls Needs

By Masami Sato

As the age old adage says, health is wealth. Here we are speaking about soul's wealth. Nutritious food is good for one's health because body can absorb its essence - it is ditto with our life. When we espouse life in its entirety, enjoying all the impressions and sensations in it, our soul will be able to take in its 'quintessence', coming to terms with the core of our existence, and helping us to live our lives to the highest. Masami Sato shares the mystery of living a complete life in this excerpt from her latest book, ONE.

Why is it that many of us, (actually, most of us) now and then feel some sort of a barren sensation in our lives? It is like being ravenous. When we eat, we are satiated and become slightly indifferent to food. But after some time, we once again feel like having food. Then suddenly we are drawn again to the aroma and picture of food. We can also feel strange pangs of hunger when we are not actually craving for food - just after having eaten something. Some of us have a craving all the time.

Perpetual emotional vacuum is not the best of feelings. Then how do we live our lives to the maximum? How can we be more fulfilled forever?

Maybe the answer is simple: just live our lives as a whole. The word 'whole' holds the meaning of completion. Then the secret to live a complete life is simply to live it as a whole.

Let's start to look at one example of this 'wholeness' with something awfully close to our heart-our stomach.

Whole Food VS Half Food

We are familiar with the word 'whole food.' It is said that consuming whole food is the secret to the health and fitness we need. What has whole food got more than 'part food?'

A whole grain for example has a life. So, if you soak the whole grain in water, drain the next day and leave for a few days, it sprouts. It has a life of its own. When we eat such food, our body absorbs the full live nutrients. It has all the properties to cleanse, heal and nurture different body cells.

And just like the example of a grain, most traditional eating includes eating whole animals as well. Eating whole fresh fish used to be more common than taking a part of fish and throwing the rest away. It was the same for meat and the same for vegetables.

'Part food' sometimes tastes better and smells better but does not have much nutrition. We may enjoy its taste, but we could have some lasting illness if we only ate 'part food' all days of our life.

So, to compensate the absent half, we started to have dietary supplements. We have been analysing and learning for quite some time to reach the correct balance. It becomes more and more problematical as we chop up the food, process it and ship it, and even try to make up the deficiency with other parts that have its origin in other countries, seasons or sources. Some of these supplements do not even come from natural food sources. They are artificially made. After testing and analysing, it is endorsed to be edible. But no matter how much we strive; we cannot bring all the 'bits' together to make it alive and pulsating.

Half Life-'Sweetness' of Life

So, if we view our life now, a lot of what we are doing is akin to eating 'semi food.' Just relishing the sweet taste of life but discarding the actual nourishing part. And if we immerse this 'semi life' in water with other bits and kept it under the sun, could it sprout and develop into a lovely full life?

Whole food is not (as some people perceive it) poor in taste. It is actually tastier when we prepare it properly. But while the demand is low, it is more expensive. It is actually more economical in the long run though, as we have less medical expenses later on. When more people start eating it, it will naturally become cheaper because it is a simpler food with less processing and waste.

Our life is the same. When we only appreciate the 'sweetness', and throw away the rest in rubbish bins because we don't see its value, we may be wasting the most important part. And the part we throw away could have the greatest power for the sustainability of our life and our economy. It also takes more energy and resources to discard it. Better yet, the part we throw away is free.

So, what is it we are not seeing?

Think of a life where we didn't actually sense we were missing anything there.

The secret is right here. The secret of a full life.

Entire Life-The Complete Life

When it's 'whole', it doesn't matter how big the whole is. It can expand simultaneously. It can still contain all the elements to sustain itself as a whole living being. Once it grows to a certain size, it can still live without some of the parts. Like plants can live after being eaten a little by birds or trees still thrive even after losing their leaves. But if we neglect the balance for a very long time, eventually it can start creating a fatal imbalance. Then it could become too complicated to get back into balance.

We do not have to return to prehistoric times to find fullness. Fullness exists in the present. All that is required to do is view intently; view intently enough to actually find.

When we can see our life as an entirety and resist jettisoning what feeds our life the most, we start feeling more and more satisfied without searching for 'material' to fill the depressions and vacuums of our life. Everything finally finds its level. We now recognize the entire apparatus of the world in a very altered way.

Yes, it is now time to learn how we can form (and find) this equilibrium constantly and manageably.

The real nourishing part of our life is what makes us feel good deep down. It is like the part of food that makes our body become healthy in the long-term. Feelings we experience in our everyday life are the real key to our long-term happiness. And there are feelings that make us feel more complete.

The happy faces we see when we give recognition to others. The pleasure we experience when we give presents to others. The affection we feel when we see our kids being happy. The encouragements we get when we feel our life is full of significance ..

Let us absorb these moments of our life wholeheartedly and savour the aroma of our full life. Then we will find how it is not obligatory to incessantly fill our heart (and belly!) with earthly satisfactions - those types of things that only add to our yearnings afterwards.

We can actually experience this delight, thankfulness and affection in order to sense life as a whole at any minute irrespective of the circumstances. It is not about what we perceive, what we are told or how we act that conclude our life as a whole. It is about what we 'opt to' feel about our life.

Yes, our life indeed is already absolute.

When we start taking actions based on this understanding, we can become true masters of the balance creation-long-term health, wealth, nurturing relationship and happiness.

Turning Crisis Into Opportunity

noreply@blogger.com (The White Dove Partnership) — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:53:00 +0000

By Masami Sato

How we should react when economy slows down? When the financial market is in chaos all across the world, people consider clinging on to whatever they have and also reduce expenses. And they think that everybody does so, mainly because newspapers proclaim as such.

However, each and every person ISN'T doing so. There are sections of the society which prosper, come what may. Those, who feel surprised about this odd equation, can find the clue for it in a most obvious place where they might have missed it. It might be worthwhile to analyse it together.

Whenever there is a downward trend, whatever it is, the best way to overcome it is by rising higher than it. If we drift with the wind and go where it takes us, we might find ourselves in dire straits, waiting for the wind's mercy for deliverance.

The fact is that when we know our strength and can hold sway over ourselves, we can rise above the mundane and not worry about what is going on all around. Let us visualise it properly.

'Go-getters' or 'Go-givers'

Let's say we want more - more profits, a pay raise, more holidays, more freedom, and more opportunities.

When we have a desire for an object, our first tendency is to straightaway go and have it. That just makes us 'Go-getters'. And a 'go-getter' is surely a self-motivated person, an activist and a natural leader. Such a vision is a proven way to succeed in life as we have heard. Still, there is some sort of a snag. When this plan is brought into play, the results are somewhat surprising though in a way it is foreseeable as well.

The crux of the problem is that after 'getting' and 'owning' a thing, what eventually happens is 'dropping' it. We either actually throw it away or become indifferent to it.

Then our interest swings to something else. This continuous swaying of interest is the biggest issue; the widening interests becoming a never-ending circle of desires so that we are never satisfied with what we have. It becomes a sort of junk food dependency!

But what if we turned our 'getting' into giving?

You might be conscious that the act of contributing produces a unique pleasure. This arises from gratification and not from alarm or self-indulgence. One can go on contributing and get so much in return like a most rewarding expedition.

Our generous and giving attitude creates generous and giving customers and team members while our price consciousness and 'getting attitude' attracts precisely those types of customers and team members. And they're the very ones we don't want!

Creative capitalism

Most enterprises are conscious of this now. Companies have now started providing for others in myriad ways. A complete change has come over as companies understand how the idea of giving is crucial to their business. In an article in TIME Magazine in July 2008, it was Bill Gates who coined the word 'Creative Capitalism.'

He opined that the idea of providing for others could become a crucial factor in encouraging people to buy one product rather than another.

The essence of what he says is that when a business has ties with the idea of giving in one way or other, it is bound to be more temping to others. It stands out above thousand businesses the attributes of which are similar.

Creative Capitalism is about rising above what we reluctantly settle for to reach what we truly aspire to. When we can capitalise on our ideas and imagination in a way that benefits and nurtures the wider community and network; we stop wasting our resources, efforts and talents in trying to temporarily win. We start creating the real win for ourselves and for the sustainability of our global economy.

The charm of effective giving

CSR or Corporate Social Responsibility is the word used for delineating the process of business establishments giving back to the community. It is becoming an obligation on the part of enterprises to do so. But when they donate as a duty or just for creating a good impression, it would soon become easy to make out. However, it works as an interim ploy for survival.

However, 'giving' people and businesses always attract more. The passions and beliefs behind what they do are shared with the people with whom they connect. They attract something beyond what the slick PR or marketing campaign provides.

So, what happens if we allocate some of the marketing budget to go toward giving?

Giving creates something bigger than who we are. Giving creates inspiration. Inspiration can only be created when it resonates with the people whom we want to inspire. And we get inspired when we are involved in the experience. It is not just about hearing the nice stories of others. It's actually participating in those stories. After all, we all want to feel good in life by making a contribution-to our family and friends, to our company and to our community.

Transaction-based giving makes it inevitable

The facility for contributing became so much simpler because of a programme (or one can say a 'development') called Buy1GIVE1 (Buy One Give One). Buy1GIVE1 is the heart of transaction-based giving. Transaction-based giving revolutionises things. Let us use our creativity and analyse how.

For example, imagine if every time you had a cup of coffee at your favourite caf, a child in Africa automatically got access to pure, clean water for one day?

Imagine if every time you subscribed to a magazine you love, a tree got planted automatically just because you bought the magazine? Or every time you dine out, you fed a child in need? Automatically again.

Or let's say you're being coached in your business. How interesting would it be to know that a child was educated for one month as a direct result (and by the way, all it cost the coaching company to do that was 60 cents per day).

Where a motivational speaker at a conference is connected with a charity, part of his income might go to helping kids who have speech problems due to facial defects. It will be a matter of great satisfaction for the participants at the conference to know that their very participation is helping a deserving cause.

Imagine now if you could apply transaction-based giving in your own unique way to match your main products/services to engage your customers and team members to be part of the giving story. Here's how.

The real win-win economy

Business ventures, on a global basis, have already internalized the efficacy of this transaction-based giving. A case in point is TESCO, one of the foremost supermarket chains of UK. The company's programme ensures that a Kenyan child gets a school uniform when someone buys a pair of school trousers from them.

Volvic is a Mineral Water Company that launched its scheme of transaction-based giving program last year. They help the cause of making wells in Africa. They call the scheme Buy1 GIVE 10 as it helps in generating a flow of 10 litres of water in the well, by every single litre of water they sell.

Lesser to middle level businesses have now begun to spearhead the movement of increasing the idea of global giving through Creative Capitalism. Buy1GIVE1 (www.b1g1.com), a Singapore-based Social Enterprise came up with a procedure that has turned this transaction-based giving into something each and every human being can be part of.

Buy1GIVE1 is the abode of the most powerful transaction-based giving in the world because it ties up any enterprise of any size to any worthy cause in the world. It is creating an international community of entrepreneurial givers and for SME`s, Buy1GIVE1 correlates enterprises, their buyers AND causes in an unsurpassable way. The system has been so perfected that it is automated.

Any person can become a citizen of this phenomenon of global giving merely by getting a Buy1GIVE1 `VISA` directly off the Buy1GIVE1 site at www.b1g1.com. Those who have their own enterprise can become a B1G1 Business through applying online and selecting the charity and the primary service or product for launching the giving. Buy1GIVE1 forwards the entire contribution amount to their international Worthy Cause Partners (more than 528 projects are available for members to choose from) thereby making their contributions highly productive.

Finding what we are looking for-Nature gives us the clue

So let's come back to where we started-economic turmoil and getting what we want. What we all really want is actually very simple. You can sum it up with 'C' words - connection, collaboration and community.

When we can pool resources and not segregate and when we can divine a proper way to augment what every one has got and not cut down from what each has got, we understand that there is a veritable cornucopia of sources to be had in the world. And when we bond, jot just with our physical persona, but with our intrinsic selves, we discern something completely fascinating -that we're all ONE. Then we comprehend how uncomplicated it is to form a universal community from something as ordinary as giving.

And nature gives us a real clue to that.

In nature, bees and butterflies pollinate flowers and create sustainable flower gardens for many generations to thrive on. It's been in front of us all along!

When a fiasco inundates the world, it should be leveraged to turn it into a benefit to return to normalcy. Now is the time to acknowledge what we have got and forge ahead to succeed.

And when a person opts to begin giving today itself, the sense of euphoria would be much more, notwithstanding the economic problems. And with this sense of elation comes a reawakening of hope that will remind him of how the power and direction of tide can easily change. And his giving might be that which brings about this change.
