“Healthy, Inspiring, Purposeful people let their life be a mission, not an intermission, they know that they are here for a purpose and on purpose. Be H.I.P. Trust and discover your mission, then say yes to it and no to everything else.” ~ Coach T
I recently heard this song by Karen Drucker: I’ve spent my life with a disease to please, I say yes, when I really meant to. But now I’ve seen the light and I feel the time has come for me to say, there is something I need to know: “No is my new yes.
When I say no I’m saying yes to me. When I say no, I set myself free. I’ve been living my life, living to please, full of effort and struggle and not enough ease. I’ve been a such a good boy, but now I know when I’m untrue to me, I lose a piece of my soul. No is my new yes. I thought to be nice. I had to be nice doing what others wanted, but I am paying the price.

“Healthy people know that you can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep reading the last one. Be H.I.P. Prepare now to turn the next page.” ~ Coach T
Sometimes you have to just put both feet on the ground firmly and keeping moving forward. The same old repeated pattern of thoughts, reactions, behavior, attitudes and choices will only get you the same. It is absolutely impossible to keep going through the same door to the bedroom and thinking you’re heading into the kitchen. Clue: INSANITY
It is insane to keep taking the flight to Houston while you’re trying to head to New York. The good news is that there is support all around you to help wake you up from the nightmare. Yes! beyond the surrounding or appearances right now there is help…. Your life is before you and in this now moment here is your ticket to waking up… Ready? Turn the page!

“Purposeful people know that the time will never be just right. Be H.I.P. Don’t wait for the right time. NOW is the right and the only time.” ~ Coach T
Confession time, here I am preparing to blog this wonderful message to you all and my eyes caught hold of the calendar and a moment of panic / realization kicks in. Yikes! the year is almost ending and there is a slew of items that has to be prepared. Whoa, what have I or we accomplished all year.
Breathe…. and I am back to this moment, the only moment. How many times have you been jolted by the concept of time and the list of to do? We have all been zapped into this concept that 24 hours is no longer enough. Technology and the fast demand of our attention really doesn’t support our energies either. Everything appears to be moving constantly. Sometimes I even get caught in the guilty measure of spending times with friends, whether in person or on the phone, and yet my attention is split to cooking or computer.

Healthy, Inspiring, Purposeful people practice seeing other’s light by greeting them with “I see you”. Be H.I.P. practice silently greeting others with “I see you”. I see your light of greatness & excellence. ~ Coach T
Every day we spend hours projecting unto others our light qualities and our dark qualities. This means the qualities that we cannot accept as being a part of us but we perceive them out into the world. Into our family, friends and love ones, all of whom are playing their part in being mirror reflections for us.
The game goes like this – that person is mean, that person is angry, that person is undeserving. Perhaps that person is great, awesome, beautiful and charismatic. The qualities that we perceive as dark we push those away (daily feuds) and the ones that are light we are enthralled with. Humans spend hours per day watching OWN network because of the greatness they admire in Oprah (and yes there are those that perceive her differently). So many friends and acquaintances who comments “I will be on Oprah soon” – this is because they thing Oprah has something that they don’t have. She holds the ticket to their abundance and celebrity status.

H.I.P. people know that as we become clearer channels for light to shine our desire for darkness becomes less and less. Be H.I.P. become a clear channel for light. ~ Coach T
Gossip is not H.I.P. It’s not cool. Gossip is a path down the dark-side. You don’t want to go there. It is putting others in the dark instead of the light. Gossip robs you of energy and is a cheap way to feel good about yourself. It is pointless entertainment. Whenever you gossip about someone else you lower your own vibration. Whenever you gossip you waste your time and your own life. Whenever you gossip you give the person you gossip about your energy and power for that moment. It dims your light.
It serves nothing to gossip or speak negatively about another. Gossip is an empty calorie communication, like eating cheap fast food that leaves you dissatisfied. Ask yourself before you talk about another person, it is true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? Will it hurt anyone? Will it improve upon the silence? If you answer no to any of these perhaps its best left unsaid.

H.I.P. people practice seeing the Divine light in others by greeting them with the salutation – Namaste – I behold the Divine in you. Be H.I.P. practice seeing the light in others and greet them with Namaste. ~ Coach T
Love those that attack and challenge you the most. They are simply God’s angels disguised to remind you to love bigger and shine your light brighter. Sometimes we think because we have pure intentions or are doing some good in the world that everyone will be happy for you. This is not always the case. Often when light seeks to emerge darkness seeks to oppose it. But you cannot give it too much energy or weight. As you step more fully into you unique light, your authentic power, those around you may sometimes feel threatened. You just show them either where they are not embracing their own light or where it scares them. They may lash out at you.
KNOW THIS: They are not really threatened by you, they are actually threatened by their own greatness, their own light, that you remind them of. But trust that nothing can stop what is meant to be. Resist the natural temptation to fight darkness with darkness. Anger with anger. Hate with hate. This will only perpetuate the cycle of suffering and darkness and end up bringing you down.

Healthy, Inspiring, Purposeful people know that if they don’t let their light shine, they will never be a shining star. Be H.I.P. know that you are a shining star, no matter who you are, shining brightly for all to see. Shine baby shine. ~ Coach T
My wonderful husband has these habits that at once would drive me up the walls but then when I asked myself “what would I do if one day these habits went?” I decided to really breathe them all in. Yes, it is a process to look beyond the appearance but this is a process I have consciously chosen to fully experience every step of the way.
Our mutual relationship is one of supporting each other to evolve into our best selves. This requires being pushed beyond the comfort zone. This dedication more often than not allows us to confront the frighten parts of our personalities and to simply be with what is seeking to emerge, a necessary discomfort for the evolutionary relationship that we both seek to express.

I had someone ask me why
God never seemed to answer his prayer – I replied – “it’s not that God never answers your prayer, it’s that you never become still and silent long enough to hear God.” Silence is the key to being able to hear the voice of God. Silence is not just the cessation of noise in the outer,it is a state of being. Entering into a state of silence is tapping into a realm of consciousness for the purpose of putting us in touch with Divine Mind so that the soul may listen to the still small voice. We all want to hear this voice as it ultimately guides our path to greater living.

One uses prayer / meditation to be aligned with what already is.
We say what already is as we affirm and believe that “all is done” in creation already. There are times when we experience situation and circumstances that does not look like “all is done” already. But the Truth is, we are the ones out of alignment NOT Truth.

The purpose of prayer is to come into conscious awareness of the Presence of God NOW – Communion or Common-Union-Oneness
Prayer allows is to synchronize our awareness with the Mind of God and enter into a state of consciousness called Heaven. Heaven NOW.. I know this might sound radical to some people but really why should we wait for a state of Heaven (happiness, peace, joy, abundance etc) in the afterlife. What then would be the purpose of a present time incarnation?
