WILDLIFE
WINS
There are less than 620 mountain gorillas on the planet
today. All live in the forests of Central Africa and, hands down,
they are the among the world's most endangered apes. Three hundred
mountain gorillas live in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable
National Park. The rest live in the nearby Virunga Mountains of
Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. None live in
captivity (i.e. zoos) meaning that a single natural disaster could
wipe out the entire species.
Here is your chance to make a difference. Join now for your
chance to WIN BIG (up to $20 million) AND SAVE endangered wildlife.

"The
New Revelations"
by Neale
Donald Walsch
|
 The human race has reached a Time of Choosing. Our options are
being placed before us by the tide of events - and by those who
are creating them. We can either move forward, building together
at last a new world of peace and harmony based on new beliefs
about God and Life, or move backward, separately and continuously
reconstructing the old world of conflict and discord. The New
Revelations provides us with the tools to move forward, to pull
ourselves out of despair, lifting the whole human race to a new
expression of its grandest vision. In this book, which offers
possible and powerful answers to the questions facing the world,
bestselling author Neale Donald Walsch urges us to open our hearts
and minds to what may be one of the most important spiritual
statements of our time. A conversation with God that began as a
simple plea from one human being to the God of his understanding,
The New Revelations is a life-altering book, given to us when we
need it most.

"Happiness
is Free"
by Hale
Dwoskin, Lester Levenson
|
 That
which every one of us is looking for in this world is exactly the
same thing. Every Being, even the animal, is looking for it. And
what is it that we are all looking for? Happiness with no sorrow! A
continuous state of happiness with no taint whatsoever of sorrow.
Now, if this be the Goal, why is it the Goal? The reason why it is
the Goal is because imperturbable happiness is our very basic
nature!, And what is imperturbable happiness? Complete and total
freedom, and that is freedom to do or not to do anything and
everything. This is the real natural state, before, we encumber it
with limitations.

"The
One Minute Millionaire-The Enlightened Way to Wealth"
by Mark
Victor Hansen and Robert G. Allen
|
 Now, two mega-bestselling
authors with decades of experience in teaching people how to
achieve extraordinary wealth and success share their secrets. Mark
Victor Hansen, co-author of the phenomenal Chicken
Soup for the Soul series, and Robert G.
Allen, one of the world’s foremost financial experts,
have helped thousands of people become millionaires. Now it’s
your turn.
Is
it possible to make a million dollars in only one minute? The
answer just might surprise you. The One Minute Millionaire
is an entirely new approach, a life-changing “millionaire
system” that will teach you how to:
* Create wealth even when you have nothing to start with.
* Overcome fears so you can take reasonable risks.
* Use the power of leverage to build wealth rapidly.
* Use “one minute” habits to build wealth over the long
term.
The One Minute Millionaire is a revolutionary approach to
building wealth and a powerful program for self-discovery as
well. Here are two books in one, fiction and nonfiction,
designed to address two kinds of learning so that you can fully
integrate these life-changing lessons. On the right-hand pages,
you will find the fictional story of a woman who has to make a
million dollars in ninety days or lose her two children forever.
The left-hand pages give the practical, step-by-step nonfiction
strategies and techniques that actually work in the real world.
You’ll find more than one hundred nuts-and-bolts
“Millionaire Minutes,” each one a concise and invaluable
lesson with specific techniques for creating wealth.
However, the lessons here are not just about becoming a
millionaire—they are about becoming an enlightened millionaire
and how to ethically make, keep, and share your wealth. Whether
your goal is less than a million dollars or that amount many
times over, there’s never been a better time to achieve
abundance. Let The One Minute Millionaire show you the
way.

Carrie
Hart is the author of "There is a Garden", the story
of her spiritual journey from stressed executive to channeler of
Quado. Her book and CDs of original music are available on
http://www.carriehart.com
|
Today, I
think it would be a wonderful day to focus only on those things which
directly affect you. To focus
on your life as it actually is, right now, in the present.
Should
you read the newspaper this morning? Why?
Do these headlines, these fear-mongering articles, have anything to
do with you and your life? Should
you watch the news on the television? Why?
Does it help you lead your life of peace and joy by knowing that
another person has been killed, another child found missing, another threat
of war lies over the world?
Today,
focus on your actual life, your real life.
Your life as it is without your worries of the future.
Are you concerned that you haven’t saved enough money for the
future? Is that clouding your
day today? Then ask yourself,
do I have enough money to get by today, enough food to feed my children
today, a roof over my head and clothes on my body?
Am I taken care of today?
Then
fill your heart with gratitude, and have more faith that every day will be
like this. The threat of an uncertain future will always be there if you
invite it in, but if you are all right today, then why not assume that this
wonderful grace will always be there, that each day will proceed out of the
beauty of today, and that you will somehow find what you need in the days of
your life as they actually unfold.
Of
course you will find, especially if you read the newspaper and watch
television, that there is a world which wants you to focus on the future
with fear. It sells newspapers.
It sells insurance. It
sells investment planning and other financial services.
It sells plastic surgery and diet pills.
Many, many people make money off your fear and worry, and it is for
that reason that they focus on it.
Imagine
how little money they would make if all they said was:
look inside, find peace and love there and then live your life today
as it comes to you. This would
be a fairly boring news headline, day after day, would it not?
So
realize that you are beset by people who do not have your best interests at
heart. They are doing what they
can to capture attention in a world which is increasing overrun with
attention-grabbing events and headlines. They are doing what they can to
grab a piece of the change in your pocket.
You must
become your own best friend and advisor.
You must be the one to counsel peace and joy, a heart full of
gratitude and love, and a life lived now, in the present, appreciating the
ample beauty of the moment.
How
foolish to rush through the moments with your child in order to dash out to
make it to a meeting at a job you have in order to provide for your child.
Yes, yes, I know, your life has its demands.
But somewhere, within those demands, gain a sense of perspective.
Understand that these moments with your child are fleeting, but that
your fear and worry will always be there.
Always be there because they are not real. Only now is real, sitting at this table across from your
child, watching her playing with her food.
This is real.
The
worry and fear and doubt and frustration will always be there because you
have invited them in. There is
no amount of money, there is no amount of loving attention from other
people, which can eliminate fear which you have invited into your life. You will somehow always come up with more reasons why you
still don’t have enough money, more reasons why some relationship isn’t
bringing you what you truly need.
Right
now, in the life you have at this exact moment, you can find joy and peace.
Right now, you can find a faith which will eliminate your worry as no
amount of money possibly can. Right
now, you can find a deep love which will bring you the comfort you need in
your life, as no other person possibly can.
And when you invite this peace, love, joy and faith into your life,
then you can bring it to the breakfast table, to enjoy these precious
moments with your loved ones, with your pets, with yourself.
Stop and
put a flower on the table. Calm
yourself. Let joy and love
flow. Breathe deeply. Smile. Capture a
little vacation in the space of a few minutes, by being calm and centered
and joyful. Make each moment
count.
Live
now. Live in faith.
Live within love. Life without fear.

Quado
is a spiritual entity channeled by Carrie Hart. Carrie is a
singer, songwriter, poet, and healer. Quado first spoke to her
on November 26, 1995. In March, 1999, she began
publishing daily Quado messages on her web site at http://www.carriehart.com

^Top^
It
all begins one day, with your birth into the world. Showered with love and
affection, you are adored, appreciated and enjoyed...
A low self-esteem simply does not exist. Everything around you, indeed the
whole universe, is simply an extension of yourself. Although you were cranky
when you were hungry, tired or wet, you made no negative judgments about
yourself the way adolescents and adults do. You never cried about
self-doubt, self-hate, or wanting to be popular.
As an infant, you still hold the idea that you're the center of the
universe. When you enter the shopping mall - you don't just want a toy - you
want the toy store.
And then... 20-30-40 years later (after a few 'failures' and many statements
such as "You can't always get what you want..." or "You've
been bad this morning, so you can't have it now..." or "If you'll
behave yourself, tomorrow you can have one...") ... you visit someone
for the first time. They ask you a simple question: "would you like tea
or coffee?" And you answer: "oh, it doesn't matter" or
"what's easier for you" or "no thanks, I've had coffee in the
morning..."
What a long way down the hill, from the once high-point of a healthy
self-esteem...
As adults, we can choose the messages we accept or reject. No one can make
you feel inferior without your permission.
The building of a high self-esteem is a continuing process, not something
that can be developed overnight. From my experience of working with
thousands of people, every person has the capacity for a high self-esteem.
The only question is, are you ready to make the commitment necessary to
increase your self-esteem?
If
your answer is yes, here are 12 steps to get you started:
STEP 1
------
Stop comparing yourself with others.
There
will always be some people who have more than you and some who have less.
You are unique and your purpose is to express your uniqueness. Who can do
that better than you?
STEP 2
------
Stop diminishing yourself with negative judgments.
You can't develop high self-esteem if you repeat negative phrases about
yourself and your abilities.
STEP 3
------
Avoid perfectionism.
Perfectionism paralyzes you and keeps you from accomplishing your goals.
STEP 4
------
Surround yourself with positive, supportive people.
When you are surrounded by negative people who constantly put you down, your
self-esteem is diminished.
STEP 5
------
Acknowledge yourself.
Get yourself a beautiful booklet, and write in it every night, before going
to sleep, 20 things you did well during the day. Big or small, doesn't
matter, as long as you allow yourself to feel acknowledged.
STEP 6
------
Give more of yourself to those around you.
When you do things for others, you are making a positive contribution and
subsequently begin to feel more valuable, which, in turn, lifts your spirits
and raises your own self-esteem.
STEP 7
------
Get involved in the work and activities that inspire you.
It's hard to feel good about yourself if your days are spent in work you
detest.
Even if you cannot leave your present work situation immediately, you can
still devote leisure time to hobbies and activities, which you find
stimulating and enjoyable.
STEP 8
------
Be true to yourself.
Live your own life - not the life others have decided is best for you.
If you're making decisions based on getting approval from friends and
relatives, you aren't being true to yourself and your self-esteem will
suffer as a direct consequence.
STEP 9
------
Solve problems.
Don't avoid problems, and don't complain about them.
Treat them as challenges and opportunities for growth.
STEP 10
-------
Respect your own needs.
Recognize and take care of your own needs and wants first. Identify what
really fulfills you - not just immediate gratifications. Respecting your
deeper needs will increase your sense of worth and well-being.
STEP 11
-------
Free yourself from "shoulds".
Live your life on the basis of what is possible for you and what feels right
to you instead of what you or others think you "should" do.
Discover what you want and what you are good at and take actions designed to
fulfill your potential.
And the most important of them all,
STEP 12
-------
Take action!
You won't develop high self-esteem if you sit on the sidelines and avoid
challenges.
When you take action - regardless of the result - you feel better about
yourself.
When you fail to move forward because of fear and anxiety, you create
frustration and dissatisfaction within yourself.
The 'real you' is a magnificent, unique being with enormous potential and
capacity for experiencing self-love and extending that love to others.
As your self-esteem grows, this 'real you' emerges.
You begin to take more risks without the fear of failure.
You are no longer preoccupied with obtaining the approval of others; your
relationships are much more rewarding; you pursue activities that bring you
both joy and satisfaction; and you will make a positive contribution to the
world.
Most importantly, high self-esteem brings you peace of mind. When you're
alone - you truly appreciate the person you're with - yourself.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"A person is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes
himself to be the creature of outside conditions."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the great weaknesses of our society today is the growing attitude
of victimization. Many people
claim themselves to be victims of some outside force.
"I had to file bankruptcy
because of my my ex-wife..", "If my company hadn't laid me off.",
"If that driver hadn't pulled out in front of me..."
When we are victims of circumstances, or as James Allen says, a
“creature of outside conditions", we have no power.
We have given over the power in our life to the circumstances.
The longer we give power to our circumstances the worse our circumstances
become.
In his book, "Above Life's Turmoil," Allen writes,
"You imagine your circumstances as being separate from yourself, but
they are intimately related to your thought world.
Nothing appears without an adequate cause."
To get control of our circumstances we must first acknowledge
personal responsibility for being where we are.
That was the hardest part for me because the "victim" in
all of us doesn't want to take that responsibility.
When we take the responsibility we must then take control of our
thoughts. And, yes, in the
beginning that can be hard. It
seems sometimes that it's our nature to first think negatively.
But that's just because it's the habit we've developed.
And like any habit, it can be changed by replacing it with the habit
of thinking the right way.
One of my favorite teachers, Emmet Fox, writes: "You are not
happy because you are well. You
are well because you are happy. You are not depressed because trouble has
come to you, but trouble has come because you are depressed. You can change your thoughts and feelings, and then the outer
things will change to correspond, and indeed there is no other way of
working."
And that's worth thinking about.

This Is My Prayer
Give me the supreme courage of love,
this is my prayer - the courage to speak, to do, to suffer at Your will, to
leave all things or be left alone.
Strengthen me on errands of danger, honor
me with pain, and help me climb to that difficult mood that sacrifices daily
to You.
Give me the supreme confidence of love,
this is my prayer - the confidence that belongs to life in death, to victory
in defeat, to the power hidden in the frailest beauty, to that dignity in
pain which accepts hurt but disdains to return it.
Rabindranath Tagore
(1861-1941)
