Surrender As I write these words, I cannot help but take a deep breath. As I know how much I have worried, and schemed, and manipulated, and strived. I know how hard I tried (that word, again) to control a particular outcome. I know how much I worked at losing weight, how much energy I placed in building my business, how long I looked for love… If these words are touching you, if the truth of my heart reaches you, if you are tired and have followed so many paths, turned so many stones, and still have found no peace, then stop. That’s right: simply STOP, right here, right now. And I do not mean to go indulge on ice cream if your weight is a concern. I do not mean to not call your clients. I mean to stop the madness. I mean to relax. I mean to take a breath with me right now. I mean to look around the room you are in. Yes, let go of this computer page, and simply look around you. Go follow a butterfly. There is life. You are not alone. And you are invited. Come! 9. Totality Yes, the invitation is total. There is no looking back, or you will be turned into a pillar of salt: not a sweet deal, I promise! You cannot surrender half way, no more than you can forgive half way, no more than you can commit half way, or trust half way. You either do or you don’t. You have to let the soul orgasm ride you utterly, and bring you, defenseless, to the ecstasy of your true self. You have to know in your heart that you will be OK on the other side. Yes, it is a passage, a death of sorts. Totally! Yet, do you like what you’ve got now so much Choosing Your RSS Reader Trust must be among the most fascinating word of the English language, as it connects the spiritual realm to the practical. See for yourself: Trust describes simultaneously an indubitable sense of certainty in a favorable outcome, while defining a legal arrangement through a fiduciary relationship. Clearly this little word has the power to join heaven to earth! No wonder it might take us a little while to get used to it! “In God, we trUSt”, which stamps our US currency, is a direct illustration of its bridging power. There is most assuredly great wealth to retrieve from having trust. Yet how do you come into it? Where do you buy it?If you want to be able to read RSS feeds then you are going to need an RSS reader. The types of RSS reader that are available to you come in two flavours. There is the desktop RSS reader and there are the online or web RSS readers.Choosing your RSS readers need not be a difficult task, to be quite honest most RSS reader software performs much the same task. It downloads the RSS file and parses it into a readable format for you. Rather than trying to ram this or that product down your throat I am going to tell you what to look for in an RSS reader and share my personal preference.Now I think the first and most important feature you will look for in your reader is price. Lets face it most of the software out there today is free so a fee based solution had better be outstanding. One free solution I did try but did not like, just my preference is Amphtadesk. This run from your desktop but displays the feeds as a webpage. This offering is open source and runs cross platform.Another feature you need to look for is ease of use. You don't want to spend hours trying to figure out how subscribe to a feed. Again this is going to be your own preference as everyone has their own abilities. I woul 1. Order Trust implies embracing a bigger picture than the little self, which wants its “due” rewards, its gratification right here, right now… Whereas the little self makes it all about me, trust espouses a bigger perspective, this of community. That is how it spells trUSt, because it makes it about US, all about Uniting our states to our Spirit, because then we can trust. Trust calls you to let go of the needs of the small self long enough you can become aware of your environment, and realize that events do not happen arbitrarily, but instead that they reflect an underlying order, potentially divine, where all works interdependently, where there are no favorite, but instead an orchestrated symphony of goodness, a magical web distributing blessings to each of us equanimously…. 2. Courage Trust implies having the courage to wait for what is good, true and beautiful to appear. It is a process well known by true artists, who will not act until inspiration prompts them to create. The movie “Jackson Pollock” offers a perfect example of that, when the artist, having received the most important commission of his life, is filmed, waiting and waiting and waiting some more, just starring at the canvas. His girlfriend, in her worrying, attempted to coerce him to paint, to no avail. Gently escorting her out of his studio, as if no thought could disturb him from waiting for the beloved, he went back to his active listening. To him, time did not exist: he knew without the shadow of a doubt the beloved, the inspiration, would come… That takes tremendous courage. That is heART! 3. Collaboration Trust offers no pressure, no tension, and no frustration: it gives you instead the chance to take full responsibility, and to merge impeccably with the task at hand. This partnership with the divine is an evolved friendship where no one participant is led astray, left abandoned, or betrayed. Never in this co-creation is there a sense of victimhood, of false expectations, of irrational demands that ruin the mood for love and limit excellence. Not at all passive, but an act of willful participation into the workings of the universe, trust is relaxed enough, easy, playful, light enough, that things happen for the good of all, naturally. In playing your part, your work transforms into worship, and your doing becomes a prayer that has no attachment to the outcome… Delicious! 4. Economy Economy is such an economical word: I love it! And in fact, distrust is as contracting as it can be expensive, and yes, I did check my spelling! Think of all the errors you made, because you did not have the heart to wait for the proper romantic partner, for the right house, for the job that would really fulfill your sense of self! Even down the smallest decisions, where would you be if you had the forbearance to wait for your turn, be in purchasing socks, in speaking to a teller, in driving… Wouldn’t that trust spare you a few inconveniences, dollars, and challenging emotions? “You can’t hurry love, no, you just have to wait…” 5. Integrity Generally not influenced by the opinions of others, people who trust are their own masters, and know they are perfect, whole, complete, and connected, as would say my friend Goddess. Doubt is viewed as an outsider’s opinion, an intrusion which is not welcome in their mental space. They do not spend energy descending in the nauseating pit of worrying either. What for? They resolved at some point to starve their ego by not feeding it prideful worry… Worry as an expression of pride? Think of it: when you worry, aren’t you rivaling against goodness? Aren’t you putting your money on not trusting God, (what an irony!)? Aren’t you placing a bet on no God, no good, no grace, and no celebration? Integrity starts at home, and builds a foundation that has no cracks, and that offers no possibility for doubt or worry to creep in… Integrity is whole, not hole. 6. Discernment Discernment is another big deal. I often hear how hard it is to recognize the voice of ego from truth. And how true is that statement? It really comes down to the powerful serenity prayer of the 12 steppers: discernment is simply the wisdom to know the difference. And truth is: you will only be finished with your addiction to smoking when you will be. You are only done when you are, not one minute earlier or later, be it with overeating or worrying. Be it with overworking or arguing. When it’s over, it’s over, and you’ll know it. Anything else is trying, not trusting! So next time you are confused, see if you can accept you are not quite ready for the way truth is going to change your life. Discernment is only that: the willingness to know the difference between stage 1 (accepting) and stage 2 (transforming). Thus discernment asks you to grow up into maturity, and own the consequences of your actions. “I did it! I am confused: that must be perfection!” 7. Paradox The beauty of the trust challenge is that it is a paradox, in the sense that it requires you to quit wanting to know, or wanting to be right! That is an enormously big deal, a deal which is the most terrifying experience for humans… It is indeed much easier to buy insurances, to hire a fortune teller, to invest in strategies and techniques, to analyze the courses of stars, and listen to forecasts, JUST SO THAT WE COULD RELAX. Until the day when all the strategies, all the charts, all the plans, all the safety devices fall apart. And that is the good news, because this breakdown can be a breakthrough to allow your metaphoric tent of peace to be built, without a roof, just so that we could see the stars before falling asleep… Or falling awake, peaceful and now relaxed, because you came to trust your lucky star, rather than question it! 8.

That is heART!Lise Petersen spoke with Sydney plastic surgeon Dr Kourosh Tavakoli about the MACS-lift, a new European facelift that gives a more natural and softer result than a traditional facelift.According to Sydney plastic surgeon Dr Kourosh Tavakoli, the MACS-lift, or minimal access cranial suspension lift, is a new European facelift that compares very favourably with the traditional facelift. 'Today in Australia the emphasis is definitely on a more natural change in appearance,' he says. 'Patients want more of a European-type change that is subtle and youthful rather than the more obvious American-type facelift, which can create a wind-tunnel effect or skin that looks too tight.' Dr Tavakoli says the MACS-lift involves less undermining of the skin than the traditional facelift and does not require exposing the facial nerves: 'In fact, the extent of undermining of the skin is probably 50 per cent of that of the traditional facelift. Fixation of the underlying tissue is done by the use of permanent sutures. The scar is in front of the ear and then continues in front of the hairline. There is no extension behind the ear or into the scalp. Scarring takes less time to subside than that of the traditional facelift - only two to three weeks - because the scar is shorter. The 3.

I am confused: that must be perfection!”People who have studied successful people over the last 300 or more years have found certain traits that accounted to their achievements. These success techniques not only helped them forward but also kept them there even in times of depression, recession or other personal disasters.Four of them are The Great M’s of Success in business and life. Mentoring, Masterminding, Marketing & MotivationI have heard it repeated over and over again, "Get Yourself a Mentor." Get help, advice and guidance by someone who has already been there and made it. A mentor can save you years to a lifetime of mistakes. They can excel you forward, in ways you never could on your own. You’ll have a much greater ability to achieve your goals because you will have a blueprint to guide your way.Surprisingly, many people if not most will go to a friend or relative for advice. People who have never succeeded and have no ambition to go anywhere, and then these same people are surprised when they too don't succeed or even get very far. Then they look for excuses and reasons outside them selves for the failures. Such as recession, location, or even competition muscling in.Accomplished people also belonged to a Mastermind group. They are people like you, 7. Paradox The beauty of the trust challenge is that it is a paradox, in the sense that it requires you to quit wanting to know, or wanting to be right!

Yet, do you like what you’ve got now so much A Comparison - The Best Prepaid Cell Phone star, rather than question it!The best prepaid cell phone is the one that will satisfy you in the end. I was spoiled while I lived in Italy for a few years where there is no such thing as a cell phone contract. Everything was pay as you go. So it really was just a matter of finding the best- prepaid cell phone company. The great thing about Italy and the rest of Europe though was the fact that it didn’t matter which company or which model phone you used. All phones worked with any prepaid cell phone card.Imagine my shock when I moved back to the U.S. in 2001 and began looking for the best-prepaid cell phone deal only to find that I was forced to get a cell phone contract. Well I ended up with Sprint and then T-Mobile before enough pay as you go plans became available. Of course the best plans ( in my opinion ) were not with any of the known cellular companies.I now have what I think is the best prepaid cell phone plan on the market. I will only compare with one other company to show you why, though the deals are getting better. I have Net 10. Net 10 is a part of TracFone. They feature phones made by Motorola and Nokia. It is .10 per minute no matter what. So, for $30 I get 300 minutes. With that I also get 60 days of service. That is very simple and easy to 8.

I don’t think so… I have always found that the pain was before making the decision. That is how there is talk of cold feet before getting married. Totality is a love story. Totality jumps fiercely and responds yes, a big YES, an “I do”. Totality trusts, wholeheARTedly. 10. Freedom The memory of that moment is engraved in my heart forever, when Byron Katie, one of my beloved teachers, answered my expressed jealousy to see her having it all: “Yes, honey, I have everything I want because I want everything there is.” I knew that for her it was true. True that she wanted it all. That she ultimately had no parts inside her that was attached to an opinion, a preference, an idea, a judgment, an expectation. That all hang-ups, all contractions were gone. Gone for good. That what was left was an open heart, an open hand, a compassionate listening, and a willingness to serve, no matter what, ready to do what it takes. I cannot but gasp as I settle as I would into a really cold bath, little by little, into the freedom of wanting it all, sickness and health, poverty and wealth, birth and death: what a trip! What an adventure! How delightful can trust be!
