Don't worry about losing


"Don't worry about losing. If it is right, it happens - the main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away."    - John Steinbeck, author

I’m getting ready to go back to Trinidad and Tobago for a short break, I pass through London for a few days! Pretty excited to go home to see friends and family and to see the peeps in London which is my second home, I lived there for most of my adult life!

In preparation for my trip, I made plans to buy some gifts for friends and family! Up to now I haven’t been paid. I asked about it last week and they told me no one was paid that there was little or no money this week to pay the staff! Now coming here was a choice I made to work for a reduced amount of cash however they agreed to take care of my needs in terms of housing and transport. I made the choice fully aware that I wanted to be here to learn, share and serve its only one year out of my life! Anyways, in getting to this point I had shed all that I had and was starting over!

So anyways, no pay, the staff were complaining about it. I started to panic and get into a funk but then the lessons learnt kicked in! One awesome thing about being aware and paying attention to what’s going on in your life is the ability to identify a trigger and pull on a lesson to bring you back to the present!

So what was the lesson?

The Universe is abundant! Remember that all the time, you will always get what you need when you need it! Pay attention to the signs, don’t bury your head in the sand when the lessons and issues are being presented to you! Stay in the vortex, stay in it! Trust that you will be taken care of and it always always helps to save some cash for a rainy day!

Peace!!!

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
