Keep your heart open

From my eBook: Self-Mastery/True Self-Empowerment by Joycelyn Marshall

Keep your heart open. Don’t put up a wall as this would shut you out of new possibilities.

There are certain things in life that are meant for us to help with our spiritual growth and fulfillment. When we go about life with our heart closed or we put up a wall instead of being our authentic self, we delay the time these things come to us. When we keep our heart open and follow our intuition which is the guidance from our soul or Divine guidance, we go about getting what is meant for us the quickest. In other words, making ourselves ready for when the Universe brings that opportunity to us so we can be in the right “state of being” to recognize it and act on it.

Condescending?

From my eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

Condescending?

It is only “condescending” (or the likes of that) if you allow yourself to receive their words like that. If you are being your true self then you would know your self worth and would always respect how you feel over how someone else feels about you.

Feel like you are going into the abyss?

From my eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

Feel like you are going into the abyss?

Hold tight! It might be your fears that have gotten the better of you.

You may be projecting from a space of lack or playing an illusionary, disastrous outcome over and over in your mind that is only in your imagination and not your reality.

Replace your fears with your faith because you don’t know what miracles are in store for you.

Remember that what’s yours will never be denied you and will arrive right on time. The Universe can rearrange things in your favor to bring you the opportunities that are meant for you.

Reflect on the times when this happened to regain your faith in God.

Be open to ALL the possibilities of opportunities that can come your way and ACT on them.

Erase all expectations and stay neutral. Find something to be grateful for.

Choose to be happy.

Be of high standing

From my eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

Be of high standing

Be of high standing:- Be of service to make a positive difference to the world for the benefit of all rather than structure your service to be at an advantage over others just to feel “superior” over them.

Make your self ready for that opportunity

From my eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

Make yourself ready for that opportunity

There are certain things in life that are meant for each of us to help with our spiritual growth or our fulfillment but we don’t always know how to get them. When we go about life in anger, jealousy, greed, holding grudges, lack of integrity, lack of compassion, fear, low self esteem, worrying about what people will say etc. instead of being our authentic self, we delay the time these things come to us. When we can free ourselves of these limiting energies so that we can effectively follow higher Divine guidance or divine inspirations or the guidance of our soul(our intuition), we go about getting what is meant for us the quickest. In other words, making ourselves ready for when the Universe brings that opportunity to us so we can be in the right “state of being” to RECOGNIZE it and ACT on it as opposed to missing it because we are unprepared.

Release your attachment to your past

From my eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

Release your attachment to the past

Don’t look back at your past with regret or anger. Even though your past has shaped your present, this is not about your past but about where you are right now. Take only the lessons from your past and use them to move forward smoothly. Additionally, when you “release your attachment” to the past, (not the same as forgetting your past), you clear your mind to receive inspirations to guide you closer to your goals.

Trust the process between levels of consciousness

From my eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

Trust the process between levels of consciousness

When your “state of being” is between levels of consciousness, you will fluctuate between getting opportunities to expand and experiencing destruction in your old lifestyle. Try not to be broken-hearted nor afraid during the destruction period nor do not project an outcome based on the destruction. Try to see the good in the destruction for it is meant to move you forward. Erase all expectations of any outcome and stay neutral to let in the new. Accept that you do not know anything about your next level of consciousness and acknowledge the need for the higher intelligence of God by asking for guidance. Let the Universe (God) be your source for everything.

On resolving conflicts:- Aspect 2

From the eBook: Upgrading Your Life by Joycelyn Marshall

On resolving conflict:- 1

Sometimes in trying to compromise a middle ground can be found. In other times, it can only be one extreme or the other as there may not be any common ground in the two approaches. In cases like the latter, see things from both sides of the disagreement for we are all connected in one way or the other and our actions have consequences both to ourselves and others. If needed, be spiritually mature to let go of your own approach to let the approach on the higher ground prevail.

(The approach on the higher ground would take into consideration what’s best for all.)

Allow others to also change for the better

From the eBook: Self-Mastery/True Self-Empowerment by Joycelyn Marshall

Allow others the space to change for the better

We should not hold people to their “mistakes” of the past if they have changed or are showing signs that they are willing to change for the better. We too would not like others to hold us to our “mistakes” if we have grown and move on from the state of being that we were in at the time of the “mistake”. In other words, allow others the space to change for the better and try to understand them from their current, changed state and not from their previous state. Being able to do so shows spiritual maturity on our part.
