Happy Song List 13/02/2016 –

Today is a bit of chilled happy sandwich. When the first song came up it made it hard to get out of bed. I just wanted to wallow in the melody and then number two instigated some bed dancing (stop it) and then I was back to feeling chilled. I got up feeling I had been wrapped in a nice cosy happy blanket. Not a bad feeling to start a Saturday with.

The songs that came after were whoppers and I was thinking to myself I wish I could share these as well because I would love other people to be reminded that there are so many great tunes in our groovy world but they will probably be in the top three another day so here’s todays top Happy Music.

No. = Andy Williams = Impossible Dream

This is the second song I ever downloaded when songs became downloadable (number one is on my Happy List and probably will come up someday soon and they have something in common. I want them both played at my funeral). It just always inspires me to keep on keeping on when it has felt overwhelming. I have dreams and goals as hope we all do and I accept I might not achieve them all and I might not want to when my aspirations change but they will always be replaced with new ones and this song makes me feel that when I get to that day when I get to go home that my quest was to keep following that star …..

 

No.2 = Curtis Mayfield – Move on Up

I have sent this song to friends when they are having a tough time just because I think it is a great song and always helps me get back on track and remind me my dreams are my only scheme.

 

No 3. = Will Smith – Summertime

Not much to say about this (sorry Will) its just a groove to sooth the mood and makes me feel Happy and it’s my all time favourite summer song.

Have a great weekend and make sure you take some time to find something that sooth’s your mood.

Happy Song List 12/02/2016

This may seem an odd ‘Happy Song List’ but as I have mentioned it previously it is random. I just let it play it self out. The most often my partner and I listen to music together is in the car and he listens to the radio all day in his job and quite often when we hear the most recent releases on the car stereo we like the same songs. If I had a pound for every time I say “Yeah I love this too, I love the lyric …….” and he replies that he hasn’t heard that. He’s a melody person and I am definitely a words in the melody person. I believe songs have messages and we can tend to hear them at the most opportune moment.

One that may come up soon (if knowing the Universe as I do, probably tomorrow) was always on or came on the car radio when I was having a particular hard time and only just learning about the Law of Attraction and that we attract our own reality. It always pulled me through and that is the general feel of these songs that came out today. Two of them have been in my life for more years than I care to remember and again long before LOA -(particularly No. 2).

No 1. = OneRepublic – Counting Stars

Obviously ‘Counting Stars’ is the most recent and it always came on in the car on the way to work and the lyric about feeling so right doing the wrong thing resonated to me as all my life I have felt I never fitted in with societies norm. I couldn’t help it, I didn’t choose it but world view 1.0 (read Pam Grout) didn’t float my boat but world view 2.0 is making me feel really at home. The more I see on the internet the evidence what you and I already know coming into the public domain I am like a new born puppy and have to be careful I don’t have an accident like an excited puppy and on that note and changing the subject ‘In my face there are flashing signs “Seek it out and ye shall find” reminds me that the Universe is helping us 24/7.

No 2. = Armand Van Heldon – U don’t know me

Bit of an aggressive happy song this but relates to not feeling like fitting in I suppose. I guess we can all relate to other people at times being jealous or judgemental or feeling we should do this, not that or do it their way as they believe their way is right but your gut is screaming ‘Nooooooo’ and you don’t know why you can’t see it from their perspective but when you go your way they can become unkind. This used be confuse me and make my head hurt so I used to play this song and dance my little tooshie off and I always felt better afterwards. I must admit since hearing about The Law of Attraction my head doesn’t hurt now as I don’t attract those situations so this song is pretty much redundant but still good to dance to.

No 3. = McFadden & Whitehead – Ain’t No Stopping us Now

The Universe is so darn clever because Armand Van Heldon and McFadden & Whitehead always went hand it hand so pick it as one todays three is genius. When people or life could seem unkind this always got my groove on. Don’t you let nothing, nothing stand in your way cos there ain’t no stopping us now. It’s taken a long time (more or less a 100 years of understanding quantum mechanics) but finally we’re on the move.

Don’t try to stop us cos we aren’t buying those negative vibes. We’re leaving them far behind.

Happy Song List 11/02/2016 =

My play lists that I have started adding are literally the first 3 songs that come up on my smart phone when I flip that little flippy thing you can do from the bottom of the screen and I press play and see what comes up. I let more play as I am making the coffee etc but thought the top three is enough to post. What are your “Happy Songs” that you start the day with or what is the sound track of your life?

Number 1. =Usher  – Pop Ya Collar

Don’t let any one steal your crown or as I see it take your power today. You can eat it or throw it away. My advise throw it away.

 

No. 2 = Pharrell Williams  – Happy

Just a classic. To me it never gets tiring. I can’t fail to be Happy when I hear this ….. or dance

 

No. 3 = Jimmy James & The Vagabonds – I’ll Go Where The Music Takes Me

Where ever you go or going today remember to do it to your own music or as Wayne Dyer would have said ‘Dance to the beat of your own drum’. I know the more authentic I am being to me and when I tap in to the power that is in me and within all of us everything just glides across the dance floor of life effortlessly like Fred Astaire

Happy Song List 10/02/2016 =

This was the first three songs I got up to today. I have had a Happy List on my smart phone for several years now but have to admit it was Pam Grout in E:Cubed that reminded me to wake up to a ‘Happy’ song and do the ‘Happy Dance’ first thing in the am.

Number 1. = Nina Simone – Feeling Good

It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me. We get to start a new life every morning if we don’t currently particularly like what it is looking like (flip it, switch it)

Imagine how good it felt making the bed whilst this was playing but please don’t imagine the what I looked like strutting around to it. Ooops popped that one in there like don’t think about about Pink Elephants. There its’ OK now you have pink elephants running around in your head (ouch).

Number 2. = Ultra Nate – Free

Your free to do what you want to do. You have to live your life and do what you want to do. What are you doing today to make that change? No shoulda, woulda, coulda’s please.

McFly – Star Girl

In my previous job a UK DJ, Chris Evans who is virtually the same age as me bar a few days so a big one coming soon a Chris !! Plays this on a Friday morning and I used to hear it on my commute but now I don’t hear it so I bought it. Some serious car dancing has gone down to this one (not to mention some very serious looks from other commuters but who cares, probably never see them again is my theory) but this morning it was some crazy kitchen ‘Happy’ dancing going down so saved the commuters that one

 

I’d love to know what your “Happy Play List’ is or if you haven’t got one, what would you put on it.

How long ?? “UNTIL”

Below is the YouTube video I mentioned in the previous blog post that had my new favourite word in it “UNTIL” plus a few added gems.

Flip it, Switch it. Lets go round again.

 

If you have followed my blog for a while you may know that I adopted a little habit from Ali Brown and brought it in to the 21st Century.

I think it was Jim Rohn (and probably others) that said we become the 5% of people around us so Ali B feeling that she didn’t have direct role models in her 5% started listening to Tony Robbins cassettes borrowed from the library on a walkman on her commute to work on the subway. (Apols Ali if it wasn’t exactly like this as it has been a couple years ago since I read it).

I tweaked this by picking motivational information from my YouTube app on my iPhone. I picked one the other day which was a montage of motivational speakers but one thing funnily enough by Jim Rohn hit the sweet spot.

I like when I read books by people I admire that appear to have their shit together on the positive thinking, Law of Attraction gig admit that they have doubts, bad days, times they don’t have their shit together but not in a sadistic in  reassuring way. It reassures me when I am having trouble remembering that the Universe is supporting 24/7 that it happens to the best of us.

So what was that sweet spot?

I am going through one of those times that I am having to work really hard to hold the faith and kick out the doubt and even asked myself the question perhaps I should stop pursuing a particular avenue and Jim said “Promise yourself you will read the books UNTIL your skills change, you will keep listening UNTIL it makes sense, piece by piece, word by word, bit by bit you’ll keep going for it UNTIL, never give up UNTIL however long that is. Resolve that you will pay the price UNTIL you learn, change, grow,become”

“UNTIL” my new favourite word.

With every passing second we have a new opportunity to start again. If what you are doing isn’t getting the results you want flip it, switch it, go round again UNTIL.

Helps Please !! Thanks in Advance !!

download (1)

 

Hi Everyone

I have been given an unexpected gift and I wondered if you could help me.

I never thought I would be in this position. I love books and love the ability in this day an age (alright Grandma – oh yeah I am a Grandma) to be able to download instantly anything I desire so why am I having an issue?

I have received an email from Amazon that I am entitled to a free kindle book. At first I was all excited and thought I would download “Thrive” by Arianna Huffington after watching her on Super Soul Sunday but then I thought I would look at all the samples that I have saved and pick one but I can’t ahhhhhhhhhh !!!!

So I am handing the responsibility over to you, my followers and non-followers “High Guys, I love you !!”

Can you recommend a book that you love that you think I should use my gift on wisely??

Many Thanks in advance xx

Have a great day and weekend.

I Love Lucy

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times – 

                                                                                                                   Charles Dickens

As I child I was fascinated when I heard that the majority of our brains are unused and marvelled at the idea of tapping into the untapped. We all thought that right ?

My best times are when I remember that I am an infinite being having a human experience and I have the capacity to tap into the All and life just flows like liquid bliss and my worst times are when I am being human and forgetting I am infinite. Then I am treading through excruciating mud. But we all do that, right?

Recently I did a worksheet exercise in a book I am reading “The Fire Starter Sessions’ by Danielle LaPorte which I bought after listening to an interview with Danielle on Marie TV (Marie Forleo) where you are at the most awesome life changing cocktail party ever with the most interesting empowering people who all want to contribute to your career and then there are a set of questions what, where, when type of stuff now that you have these awesome people at your finger tips and what I found is I am still that little girl who wants that brain tapping power.

Actually in the words of Craig David (just awesome that he’s making a come back by the way) – can I have a rewind.

I have absolutely no doubt about that power potential of my and while I still have human mud wrestling days where it is more like tap out than tap in actually what I wanted/want to do is share that message to as many people about the capacity we all have available to us.

After carrying out that task I had an exciting thought or should I say feeling. I felt that some day soon the world will wake up and what feels alien to most, if in fact they are even aware of it at all will be the norm and we will be using our infinite power source at 100% capacity, 100% of the time.

So why I love Lucy?

The other day needing to give my awesome brain a break from filtering through endless information I decided to download a film with no real idea of what it entailed. Instinct drew my attention to “Lucy”. Not sure why but learning from reading “The Richest Man in Babylon I remembered to take advantage of opportunity.

I started watching when my partner came home unexpectedly early and sensing it wouldn’t be his cup of tea I switched off saving it for later. Later came and the other half was flipping through our TV planner and saw Lucy asking had I watched it?

I explained I was only 10 minutes in. He then said someone he knew put on Facebook it was the worst film they had seen and that it was 90 minutes of their life they wouldn’t get back. He said shall I delete it and save us the same fate?

He deleted it but instinct would not let this baby go and our TV system has the ability to bring back from the dead ie: undelete deleted and as fate would have it he later told me in bed that it was boys pool night the next evening.

I remember reading in a Greg Kuhn’s book once and example of two people going to the cinema and one thinking it was the best movie they had ever seen and the other, the worst and it was an analogy of how everything we experience is a perception. It has always stuck with me and while I am not going to take responsibility for your watching it if you so choose but I loved it.

I love how movies have messages in them or maybe they don’t and maybe I am reading too much into them but I saw messages in Lucy telling the viewer of how we never really die if they haven’t ever heard that before. The energy source that we are made up of is infinite and everywhere – basic quantum physics or law of attraction stuff which ever definition floats your boat and now that you know that you human tuning fork you what are you going to do with your unlimited capacity?

What are you going to manifest? What are you going to use your capacity for or on? I’d love to know !!!!

I’m a coffee Revel and proud

Coffee revels

I have previously mentioned that I was in London recently. I was on a Training course which left me quite deflated afterwards. It made me feel that being me was wrong and that I should tame down my personality traits but that felt wrong and made me think ‘do I want to be in a job that is saying I need to compromise my personality?’

Then I wrote a post about being the girl on the right and something happened after that, that felt like something was saying ‘you shouldn’t be proud of your individuality, join the girls on the left’.

You can probably tell by ‘The secret of not being judged’ that I didn’t concern myself about it to long but when I listened to the video below it just confirmed all my beliefs.

You have probably heard that the Universe is sending us messages all the time to support us with what ever is going on. It could be the next person we meet, a book we hear about or …………… a video on YouTube !!

You’ll have to watch the video yourself but when I heard a particular piece at the end my initial thought was I am a ‘Coffee Revel’ and proud.

I know some of my followers are not from the UK but here we have some confectionery called Revels and it is often commented on how people hate getting the coffee ones but I love the coffee ones so here I go again with no intention at all being the girl on the right again and the video contained here within is telling me that is absolutely fine.

And if I was an ice cream I would be coffee and walnut yum yum.

What ice cream flavor are you ???

The secret of not being judged

Aristotle-Quotes-1

 

“You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world and there is still going to be somebody who hates peaches”

Dita Von Teese

I’m a little bit older and a lot more bolder. I have had so many things manifest for me since really getting the ‘Law of Attraction’ light bulb finally switch on and I am very grateful for each and everyone one of them but recently I have been thinking ‘right enough is enough’ to myself. Stop pussy footing around.

I know deep down what my ideal life and day would look like and on one level I know it’s done ‘Ask and it is Given’ and on the other hand knowing can turn into hoping and hope is a lack of Faith.

I have read several times by several different authors so I am not going to give recognition to one and not another when I am not 100% of its origin but I heard it is just as easy to manifest a million dollars as it is to manifest a penny but the trouble is we don’t put so much importance on a penny as we do a million dollars and we think manifesting a million dollars is hard so we put more weight and doubt on the probability that we do on a penny and then the penny pops up.

This weekend I planned to take my daughter out to lunch and briefly I imagined where I would take her and where we would sit. In reality I wasn’t expecting the normally quieter lunch spot to be filled with Christmas shoppers which was a curve ball. No matter, we queued quietly and awaited our turn to be called by the Maitre d’.

Just prior to his arrival he escorted the previous group to some high bar stools at a shared high bar. Not what I envisioned and I then remembered by original vision and saw ourselves seated at my table of choice. The Maitre d’ came over and escorted us in the direction of the desired table and then ……. did a body swerve to a less favourable table. ‘That was not in my plan’ I said to myself and my look snapped to my planned area where I spotted a waitress clearing and cleaning the table. “Excuse me. Could we sit there instead?”

“Yes of course Madam”.

Maybe not exactly as planned but isn’t that the way with most things in life? We may need to accept we may have to take a few detours but if we stay confident and don’t give up (Never Give Up) we will get to our destination.

Right that was easy, a few second subconscious vision manifested. Is it really that simple?

After dropping my daughter home I had the prospect of a hungry partner waiting for me. Hungry enough that patients had flown out of the window so takeaway it was then. What has this got to do with a box of frogs? The venue he had chosen has rubbish parking and is always extra busy on a Saturday evening. I also needed to pick up some milk at a convenience store two doors away and in the mist of storm ‘Clodogh’ I didn’t relish parking up the road and having to tackle an extremely busy road. Could I manifest so easily again? Could I put in a cosmic order for the perfect parking place? Without even being able to see possible spaces I indicated to park as I drew closer and there on the end was an even more perfect parking space.

Boy it is easy. Right ‘Missy’ time to chase those even bigger manifestations now and stop in the words of Dusty Springfield ‘wishing and hoping’. Read the right books. Listen to the people who are successful doing what you want to do.

Earlier in the am I came across a person called Amy Porterfield who used to work with Tony Robbins and helped him work on his book that sounds like ‘Money Master the Game’ and Tony had always advised Amy – if you want to do something follow, listen etc to the people who are really successful at doing what you want to do and learn from them. I’d bought this book and many others that I read people had read bought and used and credited to their success but I never really invested in them enough as I had invested many other books.

‘Well you know what you need to do then ‘Missy’.

After our takeaway I spent the rest of my evening reading Tony’s book off my kindle app and started highlighting my favourite bits and one of them was the quote above by Aristotle.

I have been quite a fearful little chicken for the majority of my life but now to live the life I truly desire I have to take risks, put myself out there and there will be people who won’t always agree or like what I am doing but I cannot contemplate a life doing nothing so that I avoid getting judged and this thought reminded me of Dita’s quote above.

There is always someone who won’t like peaches so you might as well get on and do it anyway  ………. unless you don’t want to get judged.
