Before you dive into any endeavor, meditate on it first. Getting other people’s opinions about your new venture is fine. However in meditation…that is where you find the true answer to your question.
Mantra: I meditate before I act today.
Challenge yourself to reach your fullest potential. Whatever your life’s condition (not circumstance, for that implies that life is series of accidents or happenstance), you have the power to change it. If you take deliberate steps toward your ultimate vision for your life, then life is not simply “happening” to you. You are the power you seek.
Mantra: I create my own reality today.
This is a follow-up to Mocha Angels Day 23: “I speak from the heart today.” A subscriber said to me, “Speaking from the heart can cause all sorts of problems. The heart is full of emotion both good and bad.” Our conversation led me to clarify the intention behind speaking from the heart.
I learned the technique from a minister. The exact mantra is “Allow me to speak from my heart center.” It’s to be said to yourself, silently or out loud, when you are alone, not in front of other people. You say it when you are alone because this is about shifting your energy. Saying it in front of others invites judgment, and that’s not what you want. If you can’t get away from other people, say it silently. It’s said before a tense conversation (or confrontation) in order to de-escalate the situation.
Be sure to say it before you open your mouth. The intention is to speak with love to the other person. When you do speak, love, compassion, and clarity will flow from your mouth. It’s almost magical. It’s simply a shift in your thinking. You go from “I’m right, you’re wrong” (the ego) to “I want to hear you and understand where you are coming from” (the heart).
The other intention of “Allow me to speak from my heart center” is to heal the relationship. This works for everyone and anyone with whom you want to have a positive relationship.
The challenge is to remind yourself of the mantra when you’re angry or fearful, or worse, consistently an asshole/difficult/brash/rude/selfish/self-centered, etc. I’ve been that person, on all counts. I had to learn, in the hardest of ways, that insisting that I’m right all the time was leading me down the wrong path of self-righteousness aka “why can’t people just act right?” I’m the one who needs to be checking myself. I don’t need for everyone else to behave.
There are times when it’s appropriate to fight and defend yourself, or to get out of a dangerous situation. You don’t put up with anyone’s toxic bullshit or abuse. I think the heart center mantra is a gentler way of moving through life because you are being guided by love.
Hatred never ceases by hatred but by love alone. This is an ancient and eternal law. – The Buddha
Before you open your mouth to speak in anger, stop. Ask God to open your heart center, which is the seat of compassion and connection to others. Then speak again. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. Speaking from your heart can transmute a tense situation into a positive one. (I’ve done this many, many times. It works!)
Mantra: I speak from the heart today.
Angels come in all shapes and sizes. They are not all celestial beings. Pay close attention to see if there are any earthbound Angels in your life. When you notice those special people, say “thank you!”
Mantra:
I am thankful for the Angelic people in my life.
When you are creating things that are not so right, you can, at any moment, align with your Creator, step into your Divine Self, and say:
Today, I create a wonderful life. The choice is always yours to make.
God is always giving you an opportunity to create a beautiful life. The typical mantra you hear is “life is hard.” We are here to tell you that it does NOT have to be hard. Divine Order is always at work. Simply step into that order to create the life of your dreams.
We look forward to watching you create a beautiful year.
I’ve been following Kristen Helmstetter’s blog for many years. Recently she changed the name of her blog to Happy Sexy Millionaire, and explained her goal to become exactly that: a Happy Sexy Millionaire. I think it’s one of the best affirmations I’ve ever heard. I’m down with the concept like four flat tires.

Today provides us an opportunity to celebrate the birth of a new consciousness, a consciousness of Peace, Unity, and ONENESS. Today I let LOVE be my guide.
Today you are called to be a living expression of Love, Light, Peace, Unity and ONENESS. Go forth and prosper. – from Daily Spirit Callings with Rev. Robert Brzezinski. http://revbrz.com/
Trust that God hears your words, prayers, and thoughts. Trust that you are never alone. God is always with you, and an Angel is always by your side.
Mantra:
God is always with me today.
Love everyone you meet. Promise to make yourself a “no negative zone.” You made it through another year. You were gifted with breath and life. Go outside and touch the Earth, whether there is snow, grass, or water on the ground. Look toward the sky and feel the wonderment of the Universe. Look within your heart and send love to yourself. Send that love out to everyone so that peace on Earth becomes a reality.
Set your intentions today for the next year. If you walk in those intentions for the next 365 days your intentions will come to pass.
