Feel-Good Messages

We tell ourselves lies all the time when we believe we aren’t good enough, smart enough, rich enough, thin enough etc … those lies are dis-empowering. But a belief is simply a thought we keep thinking. It’s neither true nor false. I regularly tell others I’m magnificent until I believe it to be true. Make your beliefs enlivening ones too. ~ ER

No other person can disturb my happiness, unless I give their words or actions power by adding energy to them.

I do this EVERY time I talk about others negatively, try to change them, disapprove of them, feel afraid of them, judge them, get others to agree with me that they are behaving badly etc.

Thinking kind thoughts makes me happy or I focus on something else entirely ~ ER

I’d like to thank the people who’ve caused upset in my life,
for without you I would never have walked into THE SOLUTION
that has taken me straight to the opportunity of my dreams. ~ ER

I CHOOSE THESE THINGS … I choose ease. I choose pleasure. I choose fun. I choose lightness. I choose peace. I choose to have faith. I choose to relax. I choose to trust my guidance. I choose to listen to the calling of my heart. I choose joy. I choose life. I choose laughter. I choose to go with the flow of whatever is currently active. I choose to allow negative momentum to dissipate naturally. I choose to find the benefits in absolutely everything. I choose to focus on the things that matter most to me … I choose me. I choose Life. I choose Love.

Writing this list helped me get into closer alignment with how I want to feel. What things are you choosing today?  ~ ER

PLANNING FOR A HAPPIER NEW YEAR?

Don’t wait for January to think about New Years Resolutions. Make some simple changes now and prepare yourself for better things. You might get benefit from rebooting your system, just like a computer needs a good reboot from time to time.

Over the last 12 months I had tremendous success balancing my weight (that’s the positive way of saying that I’ve actually lost the weight of a small corgi – ha ha ha ha ha) and it all started by giving my body a shock. For example, instead of completely avoiding chocolate (which I’d done for years), I spent one day eating whatever the heck I felt like – and refused to feel guilty about it (this is key). My body sure noticed that something had changed and started eliminating the excess. In the same way, I think our lives need a bit of a shock sometimes too – and doing something different in one area of your life can effortlessly effect the others.

A wise man once said to me, “If you think that your finances need to improve, it’s usually your relationship that needs attention! When you think that starting a new relationship will fix things, it’s usually work or finances that are the problem.”

I’ve also found that if I’ve been trying to solve a problem for more than 15 minutes (or a week, a month, a year) and nothing has really shifted, I know it’s well and truly time to focus on something else. And you’ll know what I mean from your own experience, when you decided to get a new pet, or fall in love, or start an exciting business, or get focused on a hobby, or move house, or take a holiday – something shifts and improves the rest of your life too!

Here are a few simple ways to GIVE YOUR LIFE A REBOOT without directly tackling a problem and trying to wrestle it to the ground:

CHANGE the first thing you do every morning.
CHANGE the last thing you do at night.
CHANGE your attitude about something that matters (decide it’s a good thing instead of being bad).
CHANGE the direction you sleep.
CHANGE how you do a particular daily task.
CHANGE the social media platform you spend most of your time on.
CHANGE a silly old habit.
CHANGE who you do things with.
CHANGE the environment around you (tidy up, clean up, wash up.)
CHANGE where you spend most of your waking moments.
CHANGE your location (or your proximity to a problem.)
CHANGE your posture (get up, look up, straighten your spine etc.)
CHANGE your speed (slow down or go faster.)
CHANGE which shoe you put on first.
CHANGE your direction (take a different driving route – this makes you much more consciously aware.)
CHANGE your clothes (it sure works for me.)
CHANGE what you’re focusing on, right now! ~ With love, ER

I CHOOSE MORE CLEARLY … with my feelings, not my words.

I CHOOSE MORE WISELY … when I’m in the fullness of my heart, not when I’m reacting in my mind.

I CHOOSE MORE SUSTAINABLY … when I’m open to a solution, not when I’m trying to prevent a problem.

I CHOOSE MORE POWERFULLY … when I relax into the contrast, when I bless the events that brought me here, when I’m actively appreciating what I’ve already been given and when I’m keenly looking forward to the goodness, that’s still to come.

I CHOOSE to thrive in all situations, against all odds and in all ways. ~ ER

YOUR DREAMS ARE PURE … When you pay too much attention to what you think other people are wanting, you lose sight of what’s possible for YOU to create.

But, when you stay gently focused on YOUR dreams, doors open, pathways unfold, opportunities present themselves that you otherwise might not have imagined possible.

ALIGN WITH “YOUR” DREAMS … not with someone elses dreams, not with their limitations, not with their way of doing things.

YOUR dreams have incredible pulling power, to draw circumstances, events, opportunities and people that some may call coincidence, luck or fate, but you will know what it really is – the ability to stay faithful to what is certainly your birthright – to know real joy, real prosperity, real intimacy in relationships and a real mission that sings loudly to your soul. ~ ER

I NEVER WALK AWAY FROM ANYTHING … Instead I decide to walk towards something so much more inspiring, fun, exciting, wholesome, peaceful, aligned, happy, magnetic, passionate, delicious, stimulating or exhilarating instead. YES! ~ ER

Instead of wondering where the money goes … I’m just amazed at where mine comes from 🙂

That small shift in focus makes a huge difference.

I CAN CHANGE THE PAST … by giving the old unpleasant story a beginning, middle and ending that really lights my fire. ~ ER

I CAN PROFOUNDLY INFLUENCE THE PRESENT … by not repeating any unhappy stories ever ever ever again. ~ ER

I CAN DIRECT THE FUTURE … by telling a better story as if I’m already living it, happily ever after. ~ ER

I WOKE UP THIS MORNING … and decided to have a magnificent day.

✴ I took a few really deep breaths and RELAXED my mind.

✴ I gazed out at the view and PRAISED the beauty of nature.

✴ I ate my breakfast mindfully and GAVE THANKS for the life-giving food.

✴ I thought about the people I love and APPRECIATED their presence in my life.

✴ I looked with deliberate intent at my body and noted all of its POSITIVE ASPECTS.

✴ I decided to STAY FEELING GOOD for as long as I could, and if I happen to fall out of my “happy place”, that’s OK, I know I can get right back up again tomorrow.

Just enjoying the process. ~ ER

THE UNIVERSE IS RESPONDING TO MY VIBRATION.

Some people give away their power and say, “God does it in his own good time.”

I’ve joyously reclaimed MY part in all of this and say, “We do it together, when I’m aligned!”

When Alignment is my priority, ALL things are possible. ~ ER

Elizabeth Richardson - AUTHOR OF 500 CONFESSIONS

While we are individually born into different life circumstances, WE ALL HAVE THE SAME OPPORTUNITIES to decide what’s important, to choose an enriching attitude, to believe we can prosper, to seek greater wisdom, to ask for better conditions, to notice improvement, to acknowledge the natural benevolence of this universe, to find more clarity, to choose an inspiring life purpose, to define a personal mission to connect more fully to our own inner guidance and to follow our dreams to fulfilment.

Oh yes. To see yourself or someone else as less fortunate, is to miss the true power of life granted to all of us, in each moment of every day. The freedom to choose again.

I recently identified a number of significant areas that contribute to my sense of prosperity, wealth and freedom. They give me a good indication of what parts of my life are working and what aspects could use some fine tuning.

RELATIONAL AFFINITY – The richness of your relationships with other people, staff, family, business associates, financiers etc. These define your ease of access to physical resources, financial assistance, mental upliftment and emotional support.

EMOTIONAL INTEGRITY – The regular attunement to positive, life-giving emotions which are usually practised in daily rituals like meditation, exercise, dance, yoga, stillness, music, creative pursuits, journalling and any activity that connects you more fully to your Source Of Power, Infinite Intelligence and Aligned Inspiration.

MENTAL WEALTH – Your accumulation of knowledge, research, planning, skills, experience etc that can be utilized at any given moment and put into action.

PHYSICAL WELL-BEING – The fitness, health, respect and care of your body that largely determines mental acuity and how much you are able to actively do towards creating wealth for yourself and others now and into the future.

FINANCIAL RESOURCEFULNESS – Ready access to money and assets that generate an exchange of energy/goods/services/property etc.

VIBRATIONAL ABUNDANCE – The ability to allow the natural flow of goodwill from this benevolent universe. This can be measured by the underlying thoughts, beliefs and attitudes that contribute to how you feel, most often evident in your current physical manifestations, how much energy you have in each moment and your conversations about what’s “probable” for the future.

ATTITUDINAL RICHNESS – How do you feel about wealthy people, powerful individuals, governments, multinational companies, political leaders, well paid actors/sports stars, CEO’S etc? Do you assume they are ripping people off, abusing their own power, rorting the system, too rich to care about others? Do you rally against them, speak badly about them, eagerly pass on negative gossip and voice your opinion publicly? OR do you accept, support, celebrate them and understand that they are human beings doing the best they know how too?

INTENTIONAL FUTURE – Are you taking responsibility for your own health, happiness and prosperity now and into the future or are you relying on God, the Government or someone else to provide for you?

SPIRITUAL PROSPERITY – A balance of all of the above along with having a sense of meaning, clarity, divine connection, purpose, worthiness, value and mission in life. Without this feeling, people suicide on a daily basis … what use is money then?

I feel rich in so many ways! ~ ER

Elizabeth Richardson - author of 500 Confessions

I’ve experienced a “massive increase in income” since January 4th 2019 – but I had to STOP focusing on income, revenue, money, wages, payments and things like that, in order to have it happen.

You see, if I’ve been wanting something for a long time and it hasn’t happened yet, then I KNOW my energy / vibration is preventing it happening. I wasn’t because I wasn’t trying hard enough, being persistent enough, posting to social media enough, being in the right place at the right time enough … it was because I had activated the LACK OF MONEY for way too long, and it had simply become a habit.

So here’s a quick summary of what I INCREASED instead:

• INCREASED self confidence.
• INCREASED the quality of what I said about myself, to myself or to others.
• INCREASED my fitness level.
• INCREASED my sense of freedom, by appreciating what I already have and forgetting about what I don’t.
• INCREASED my reputation.
• INCREASED the positive feedback I provided to the businesses I was already dealing with in some form or another.
• INCREASED the number of great suggestions I shared with them and welcomed them to use them whether they got me on board or not.
• INCREASED the number of times I said “No” (because if I said yes, it would have been out of “obligation / desperation” and when I checked in with my own guidance, it just felt better in my heart, to say a respectful no thanks instead).
• INCREASED the number of times I asked for help (I went to a masseur, to the doctor, to a physiotherapist and even to a psychologist for the first time in my life).
• INCREASED the number of times I gave myself permission to do absolutely nothing — WITHOUT THE GUILT!
• INCREASED the number of “Business Marketing Audits” I sent out (I actually only needed to send out two) … BUT, without expecting anything in return. I did it because I genuinely wanted those businesses to succeed, not for some anticipated payoff!
• INCREASED my experience in the industry. (I studied like a nutter, watching videos of people who had “appearingly” already succeeded, got an insight into how Google Ads really work and other things like that).
• INCREASED the time I took to quieten my mind (HUGE).
• INCREASED my energy.
• INCREASED my focus on being mainly with pets and people that bring me joy and lightness and pleasure.
• INCREASED my faith, that everything would work out WITHOUT me needing to “effort” my way there.
• INCREASED my skills. (I did a fun sales training refresher and enjoyed working on the floor of a major retailer selling a new luxury vacuum cleaner for a few months).
• INCREASED my bravado. (I saw a business on the brink of desperation and I got in and did the work that needed doing, without waiting for a contract or even for their agreement – it felt so good – and it not only felt good, after only a few days their results started to boom, and went higher than they’d ever been. Their results are my results, and the money started flowing easily as a result).
• INCREASED the support I gave to a client BECAUSE I WAS SO CONFIDENT I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING that I declared, “If it doesn’t work, you don’t need to pay me!” I believe this, is the way of the future.

Now you beautiful, magical, creative being, these are just some of the things I INCREASED. These are things that worked for me. Please don’t follow them to the letter like some gurus might ask you to do. Feel your own inner guidance — and follow that!

Love expands …

… when I hear your words, but listen for their deeper, most positive intent.

… when I see your behaviour, but take the time to realise the pain or the passion at the basis of it all.

… when I feel how it effects my emotions, but remember, that we are both so much more than we know. ~ ER

DON’T WAIT FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN …

Don’t wait for the ideal client to materialise, practice adding so much value to whoever comes along that the ideal client just shows up too.

Don’t wait for great customers to appear, practice communicating well with everyone along the way and maybe they’ll become your great customers anyway.

Don’t wait for the perfect relationship to manifest, practice loving yourself so much that the perfect mate sees how to do it too.

Don’t hope to win the lottery somehow, practice enjoying life so much that in every moment you feel like, you’re already winning now. ~ ER

Elizabeth Richardson - AUTHOR OF 500 CONFESSIONS

IT’S ALWAYS MY CHOICE

I can talk about how someone has hurt me … OR I can choose to recall all the times they cared for me.

I can notice the ways that someone is avoiding me … OR I can choose to remember all the times they were present with me.

I can think about how I’m not being loved in the way I want to be loved … OR I can choose to focus on the times I loved myself so much that it was irrelevant whether they did or not.

It’s always my choice, to concentrate so much more, on what I really want. ~ ER

I’ve decided to stay in LOVE forever … it gives me the best facelift of all. ~ ER

HELP … is only an outstretched hand away.
IMPROVED HEALTH … is only a relaxed moment away.

BEING HAPPY … is only a choice away.
A NEW FRIEND … is only a smile away.
FEELING MORE LOVE … is only a heartbeat away. ~ ER

THERE’S ALWAYS ANOTHER CHANCE

Life keeps giving us all endless opportunities to redefine what we want, to choose again.

Do I want to believe this … or that?
Do I want to think this … or that?
Do I want to activate this … or that?
Do I want to focus on this … or that?
Do I want to say it like this … or that?
Do I want to BE this … or that?
Do I want to FEEL like this … or that?
Do I want to ALLOW this … or that?

There aren’t lessons to learn, right or wrong ways of doing things. There’s just freedom! Freedom to go this way, or that. Eternal freedom to make a new choice and line up with it — right now!

Make A New Choice — line up with it.
Make A New Choice — line up with it.
Make A New Choice — line up with it.

I Love You ~ ER

Your current life situation is only temporary. It will shift as soon as you’re ready to stop talking about what “has” happened, and look keenly forward, towards the incredible things that are still on their way. ~ ER

WHEN I’M MAKING PEACE WITH HOW I’M FEELING IN THE MOMENT … it doesn’t really matter whether I’m at the beginning, middle or end of the next adventure.

WHEN I’M ENJOYING MOVING MY BODY … it doesn’t really matter what dress size I currently am.

WHEN I’M LOVING WHO I AM AS A PERSON …it doesn’t really matter what anyone else thinks.

WHEN I’M NOTICING THE SCENT IN THE AIR, THE SONGS OF THE BIRDS, THE GENTLENESS OF THE BREEZE … it doesn’t really matter what the blinkin’ weather is doing.

WHEN I’M APPRECIATING MY LIFE BEING JUST AS IT IS … it doesn’t really matter how much money I’m making, where I am, who I’m with, or what’s happening today … I’m as high as a kite and the entire world looks beautiful.

THE RIGHT PEOPLE … may be right in front of you, but unless you’re “in the zone”, you won’t feel it.

THE BEST OPPORTUNITY … may have already been presented to you, but unless you’re “in the zone”, you won’t know it.

THE MOST WONDERFUL MOMENT … may be right here right now, but unless you’re “in the zone”, you won’t experience the fullness of it.

But hey, it doesn’t matter, just get some relief, give yourself a break, go easy on everyone else too, and move one thought closer, one breath deeper, one feeling nearer, to paradise. ~ ER

I FOUND THAT MONEY CAME SO EASILY TO ME … when I stopped trying to find ways to “make it” and just looked for more ways to “add value and have fun”.

I FOUND THAT SUCCESS CAME SO EASILY TO ME … when I stopped working for a living and started playing with my life. ~ ER
