What Works?

(This week I am attending and presenting at a CAMFT Conference in San Diego, CA)

Do you look for what works in your life?
I love to be efficient and effective.
Why take hours to do what I can do simply and easily in a shorter time?
I like to utilize the time I have on planet Earth to be most helpful to those I encounter.

I have experimented and experienced, observed and interviewed, in order to see what works.
Laughter works. 
Encouragement works.  
Being positive works. 
Serving with love works.
Being real works. 
Gratitude works.
Inner peace works.
Being willing to learn works.
Enjoying each day works.
Making every encounter holy works.
Giving your best works.
Receive what is good for you works.
Listening deeply works. 
Choosing what works for you works.
Honoring your inner authority works.
Doing no harm works.
Being kind works.
Respect for all differences works.
Knowing yourself works.
Living honestly with integrity works.
Creating what is good for all works.
Keeping life simple works.
Letting go of what doesn’t work quickly and easily works.
Allowing life to be what it is works.
Forgiveness works.

Watch and choose what works for you.
Make a list and use it when nothing seems to be working.
One simply change of mind and heart can make all the difference.
Realize that listening within to what you know will work for you.

Life is for giving.
You are the Gift.
It is in giving the gift of your Self that you realize the Gift You Are.
Loving you,

The Gift You Are

You are the gift.
In your healing, I am healed.
In your smiling, I find joy.
In your learning, I am filled with wisdom.
In your free expressions, I am empowered.
In your abundance, I too prosper.
In your spontaneity, I am set free.
In your joy, I know heaven.

And so it is that you give your Self to me
And I receive you with love and gratitude.
I am the gift I give to You
And I fully receive the gift I freely give.

As I know You, I know my Self.
As I give to you, I receive all good.
As I support you, I am supported by the Universe.
As I honor and respect you, I experience gratitude in all my being.
As I love you, I am loving all of God's creation.

I know you and believe in you.
I honor, respect and support you in being.
In you and me is all the Universe.
We are gifts to one another.
