Your Imagination Is Your Workshop

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010 by Debra Oakland

I was thinking about the power of imagination, and what it can do for everyone who chooses to use it. Your imagination is your workshop. There is nothing to limit you in any way. As an added bonus, it’s FREE! The best things in life really are free. There is a feeling of empowerment attached to creating anything you can imagine. To being limitless. Don’t you find yourself getting excited just thinking about it? I know I do. As children we use our imagination endlessly, sometimes re-running the same sequences over and over in our minds. We felt inspired and alive, believing in possibility. Anticipation and expectation filled our beings.

Spending time creating in your imagination, puts you in contact with powerful invisible forces. Be fearless. This is a safe place for you to spend quality time. Create, relax and enjoy anything you can dream of. Image something formless into form by visualizing in your minds eye. Your emotions are brought into action which creates feeling. This makes you receptive. You can choose to use this constructively, or destructively, so choose wisely. Free will belongs to you, as does the power of concentration. If you have created patterns in your life that you would like to reverse, visit your workshop to create the life you want.

As you continue spending time in your workshop, you will find your life shifting. What you focus on expands, creating manifestations in the outer world. Your inner world gives you a place to make choices and decisions, regarding your life. You are connected to the higher source of all your good, to infinite intelligence, from all time and space. Focus like a laser beam on the expected results. And most of all, have fun creating.

Do Not Let Anyone DisCourage You!

Thursday, August 13th, 2009 by Debra Oakland

Have the courage not to let anyone tell you – you can’t achieve your deepest dreams and desires. There are naysayers everywhere in the world. The worst crime to me is discouraging anyone from their soul’s desire. Don’t shut that part of you off, it is there because it is the core of who you are. Your Inner Guidance System knows exactly what you need. Sometimes when we listen to our Inner Guidance and take action, people around us come up with all kinds of reasons why things won’t work out. As a child didn’t you use your imagination and intuition all day long? Trust that. Go back to opening yourself to letting go of all the old “stuff” that holds no value for you any longer. Say Yes To Life and No to Fear and Doubt.

Free yourself from old, boring, useless time wasting habits. Free yourself from people who drag you down. Free yourself from anything that keeps you from your goals. Focus like a laser beam. You are powerful and do not let anyone tell you otherwise. Find people who support you in your excellence. What do you want? Do you imprint it in your mind, body and soul? Do you give thanks that it is already here for you – NOW? Stop believing – move into knowingness. Know that what you want is here for you in this present moment. Stay with that in a powerful way. Let no one dissuade you. Do not be impatient, for that brings in doubt and fear. You are done with that nonsense, aren’t you? Demand your freedom from all doubt and fear. When you live in the moment you are in right now and nowhere else, shifts will occur rather quickly. Don’t look back – there is nothing there. Stay present in great peace and grace, standing in your KnowingNess. Life is not supposed to be as hard as we have made it. Do we have challenges, do we need to Live in Courage? Of course. There will be bumps, challenges and many things to deal with. That’s life. How you handle these challenges is what makes you courageous, loving, joyful, fulfilled, peaceful and abundant.

Never be discouraged. Disappointment is a feeling deep within everyone because of an accumulation of life’s experiences. Release all disappointment, throw it away, along with grudges, judgment, criticism and blame. You are the only one responsible for how your life turns out, so quit blaming yourself or anyone else for anything. It is time to get on with your life. A life that can be filled with everything you can dream of and then some. Invest in yourself, you are worth it.

Make it a great day in each NOW moment, for in each moment you have a choice as to how you choose to feel and think.

In Encouragement to you from Living in Courage,
