Spiritual Awakening: Action, Action, We Want Action!!!
I must have been about 11 years old and in middle school when I first heard the cheer A-C-T-I-O-N Action, Action, Action We Want Action. At the time I did not realize the impact that cheer would have on my however through the spiritual awakening process I have learned that it takes action to create the life one desires. I then heard this song by Elvis and I began to think how appropriate as if we want to find love we must take action to be love and to pursue love. If we are truly to awaken spiritually and become aware of the divinity that we possess we must begin by taking action. In all we do we must take action steps to manifest what we desire. One of those action steps can be to set your intentions in writing and then to take the action necessary to turn that intention into reality. In one of my workshops I speak about if it is in sight in can be put into flight but if it is out of sight it is out of mind. Right now as you are reading this take out a piece of paper and write down 3 intentions for the week, then write down action steps to take to bring this intention to fruition. I have been using this method for several years and I can tell you that when I write a statement starting with I Will I accomplish what I wrote.
Last year I wrote that I will raise $1500 for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of West Boca Raton and I saw that intention everyday. I took daily action and as a result I raised $2557. This year I wrote that I will raise $3000 and I am taking daily action to reach this goal. The 2015 American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton will take place on May 2, 2015 from 12 PM – 12 AM at The St. Jude Catholic Church in Boca Raton. As of today (11/3/2014) I have raised $977 and continue to ask people to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and support this effort. In taking action you will move forward in a positive direction of your goals. In sharing your purpose and story you will attract people who want to help you.
When I first heard about The South Florida Gold last year I called and auditioned to be their Public Address Announcer and I was hired. I am now in my second year with The South Florida Gold. In taking action and making the call I was able to secure a paid gig doing what I love to do. In using my platform with The South Florida Gold I have been able to also promote my work with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca raton as The team has dedicated December 20 as a fundraising game for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. The team is also donating $5 from every Fast Break Ticket Package sold if you use promo code JDOGG to The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton.
In taking action and staying on a spiritual path I have been able to create a position that enables me to use my GOD given talents to help others. Each of the games have a charitable tie in and at some of the games I get to do a pass the hat and encourage the fans to donate to the designated charity. In taking this action I am able to bring positive energy tot he effort and thus manifest positive results.
Spiritual Awakening: Tools To Take Action!!!
I have found that using music as a motivator to take action has served as a great tool.
I have found sharing your story with others at places like Starbucks is a great tool in taking action. Recently I spoke to a gentleman Christopher Thomas Wilson who made a documentary You Have His Eyes about his quest to find his birth father. You can learn more about him at www.youhavehiseyes.com. Christopher came on my TV Show, The Anything Bucket, which airs on www.wrpbitv.com on Tuesday at 6:30 PM EST. After the show we began to talk about The South Florida Gold. He also handed me a $5 for Relay For Life. Christopher attended the South Florida Gold Game and after the game sought me out and handed me a $20 for the American Cancer Society Relay For Life. Had I not taken action to speak to Christopher this connection would not have been made. Step into your power and start to talk to people.
Take action and stay on your spiritual path.
