Spiritual Awakening: Growth Comes From The Inside

Spiritual Awakening: Growth Comes From The Inside

 Be present and aware and explore yourself and then you will be of most value to others as you reach your higher calling.

 

I have often stated that to grow both personally and professionally that you must go deep inside and find the emotional charges that are holding you back or creating negative results in your life. As I was out collecting donations for The American Cancer Society Relay for Life of West Boca Raton, FL my attitude may not have been the best and I may have been a little to asserative in my efforts as my belief was everyone can give atleast $1 to the cause. After a few bad encounters I went to my car and I quietly asked myself, what am I doing that is creating the negative and I realized I was bringing bad energy with me worrying about how people will judge me and how I was making this about me and not the higher calling of creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays. I turned to the bible and read Proverbs 18 and then turned to my favorite Psalm “This is The Day The Lord Hath Made Rejoice In It,” and began to utter the words put a smile on your face and be the loving caring person you are and let your light shine. This shift made the world of difference as the encounters with people improved and when I finished my mission I had collected $72 towards my personal goal of raising $1500 for Relay for Life. As of  8:00 AM today I am only $57.35 away from this goal and as I type this blog I pause and thank GOD for the ability to go deep inside and realize that it is not about me it is about the cause and the mission to help people affected by cancer through research, education, advocacy, and services.

Spiritual Awakening: Making Lemonade Out Of Lemons

Spiritual Awakening: Making Lemonade Out Of Lemons

 

We have all heard the saying making lemonade out of lemons. This practice takes a great deal of shifting our thoughts and action steps to find the positive in all situations. I remember receiving the phone call of Friday April  3, 2009 where my mom informed me of her diagnosis with non-operable metastatic lung cancer. I am very fortunate to have been a volunteer with The American Cancer Society and knew that her journey through this would be tough, however there were many programs available to help her. The first thing I did was give her this number 1-800-acs-2345 as this is a manned 24 hour a day 7 day a week hotline manned by The American Cancer Society. The East Boca Raton Relay was coming up and I know knew what I was going to speak about during luminaria, I would tell the story of how my mom was making lemonade out of a lemon known as cancer. My mom underwent many treatments at MD Anderson in Houston, Texas. When she returned to Florida she had lost her hair and released alot of weight. It was difficult to see her like this, however as the weeks went by she got stronger and our bond strengthened. She was cancer free for 2 1/2 years and then the cancer returned. She would travel to MD Anderson again and this lemon known as cancer would be squeezed and she is now doing better. She has her good days and some challenging days. My mom continues to take this lemon and make lemonade as she inspires me and others.  I am honoring my mom by participating in The American Cancer Society Relay for Life of West Boca Raton on April 27-28. If you would like to help honor my mom and others touched by cancer please visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg8265 or click on the support the mission tab on this blog.

Spiritual Awakening: How To Make The Mind Body Soul Connection?

MAKING THE MIND BODY SOUL CONNECTION

 

 

I am often asked, JDOGG, How do you make the mind body soul connection. I usually answer with the Norman Vincent Peale quote “What the mind can conceive, the heart can believe, and you can achieve it.”   In May of 2011 I conceived an idea to host The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards and I beleived in my heart that this event was meant to take place and on March 24.2012 the event was held. It was an incredible day of learning how to make The Mind Body Soul Connection. Dr. Mia Merritt spoke about helping others and following your mission. Sarah Spiritual gave an inspiring presentation about connecting with source, Ernest Chu spoke about using spiritual capital, Angelika Christie spoke about overcoming fear, Ken Esrig spoke about starting from where you are. All the speakers sent a message that resonated with those in attendance. The Honorees, which are listed under the tab Meet The SEVA Honorees are amazing. When it was all done a donation of $218 was made to The Reaching Out To Cancer Kids Program.

The next week I attended Vision Quest 2012 and it was amazing how many people were their again learning to make the mind body and soul connection. One of the highlights for me was doing a breakthrough, which was captured on this video.

Spiritual Awakening: Dropping An F Bomb!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Dropping An F Bomb

Okay it is not what you think, no I dropped another F word, fellowship as I was discussing how great it was to see so many people gathering to celebrate their respective holidays. I am very blessed that I was able to celebrate bith Passover and Easter and commune with GOD and continue on my path to create a oneness consciousness and to understand that GOD did not mean for us to be alone. GOD intended us to fellowship with others and to share with others. Both of these festive holidays give us a time to fellowship with others and share how god is working in our life.

 

  

 

When we talk about fellowship we must understand that it is a gathering to give praise and to lift on high ourselves and others to GOD and to be joyful in all that he has created for us.

 

 As GOD has created this day let us take a moment to share in fellowship with others and lift them up and celebrate them and rejoice in the beauty that GOD has created.

Spiritual Awakening: Power, Passion, Purpose: Ingredients For Success

Power, Passion, Purpose: Ingredients for Success

When baking every recipe calls for spefic ingredients. Today we will bak a cake for success using power, passion, and purpose as the main ingredients. By using these ingredients we will make our cake very tasty as success is very sweet.

As I began to read Ralph Waldo Emerson’s definition of success I began to think what were the ingredients needed to achieve this? I found power, passion, and purpose as the answer.Power not in the sense of being in control but the power you have within yourself to achieve what you desire the power of choice to move forward towards your goals and  desires or the choice to draw back from your goals and desires. The power to  make good decisions and the power to learn from the not so good decisions so as to improve.

Spiritual Awakening: Coincidence Or Fate That Is The Question?

Spiritual Awakening: Coincidence or Fate That Is The Question

I began to ponder this question as I opened Rev. Dr. Dee Adio-Moses book  ONENESS CONSCIOUSNESS HEAL YOUR LIFE WITH DAILY PRAYERS AND MEDITATIONS today and saw the verse “Thia is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalms 118:24 and  realized that this same verse is on my calendar for April and then as I randomly opened my bible I turned to Psalms 118:24. Thus the question is it coincidence or fate that has brought this idea into being. My father came to vist and we began to discuss happiness and through out the day people I encountered shared the concept of happiness. Last night on my radio show, which is heard from 7-8 PM EDT at www.blogtalkradio.com/thirdeyerradio1 on Monday, the topic was happiness.

I have often said there are no coincidences as the universe conspires to bring ebrything together as it may be sought at the right time. How many times have you heard the message only to think coincidence? Well it was not coincidence it was source helping you to achieve. I am reminded of a day back in October 2011 when I was driving Home from an event and I had this desire to turn into the park where their was a football field. There was a game going on and I parked and went to the press box and offered to do the announcing, I was told go downstairs and speak to our vice-president, I did and I was told sure go upstairs and announce. I did the rest of the games that afternoon and was invoited to do the homecoming games. I was then invited to do the playoff game. I was nominated by The Lauderhill Broncos as Volunteer of The Year for The SAKE Awards. Was this fate or coincidence.

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Vision?

  What do you see?

Spiritual Awakening: What is Your Vision

One of the first things we must answer in becoming self aware is what is my vision? On 3/30/12 I was fortunate enough to attend The Vision Quest 2012 Conference hosted by Allow Your Vision To Soar.  As I listened to Kimberly West speak and tell her story and share this wonderful insight ” Every dark experience you have encountered in your life only means one thing! There is something so much brighter  just waiting for you to see,”I began to realize all the pent up supressed activities of the past were not serving me and through out the day I began to release them and let go. I steeped out of my comfort zone a bit and participate did a breakthrough facilitated by Dr. Melissa Anderson, The Quantum Catalyst, who placed a arrow to my neck and had me walk forward through my fear and I shattered the arrow. I kept the  arrow and have plans to make an art piece out of it with a message about overcoming fears. I began to write down notes and defined one of my visions and that is to positively touch and impact  lives of those affected by cancer. As I delved into this vision I realized that I am doing this daily through my work with Relay for Life and sharing 1-800=acs-2345 with people. As the day unfolded I realized that we all have a vsion and sometimes it takes some work to realize that vision. There were many highlights that helped me to set my vision in motion.On of which was watching and hearing Amy Barbera Sing.


Allow Your Vision to Create Beauty.

Spirituality: Optimizing Your Talents

Spirituality:Optimizing Your Talents

We all have talents in us and for many these talents lie dormant until we find them and let them come out.  Many times our talents come alive when we begin to find our passion and discover our purpose. There are times when the talents are there but due to fear or lack of encouragement we do not pursue the opportunity to use the talents. Many times we have natural ability and when used in  a positive way our life improves. Discovering your talent and letting it come out takes an understanding of who you are and how you are expanding and growing.

Spirituality: Discovering Your Talents

When was the last time you did a talent inventory? Have you asked yourself what am I good at, what talents do you possess, am I investing in myself?

Spiritual Awakening: Thanksgiving, Family, Friends or Another Day

Thanksgiving and Spirituality Showing Gratitude

Spirituality: Thanksgiving

This will be my first Thanksgiving without my mother, Judith Miller, as she was called home by GOD on July 5, 2012. I am honoring her and giving thanks for the years she was with us by asking people to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogglederman and to make a donation. My Thanksgiving will be spent with my dad and his significant other at The Kings Buffet.

When Thanksgiving arrives and the sunrises it means turning on the tv and tuning into the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and seeing the joy on all the families gathered to celebrate this day of magic that seems to bring everyone together for the common good. For many it is a time for family and friends while for some it is just another day. After viewing the parade it is off to watch football and share time with my Dad and his significant other, Regina. I strongky believe that the elements of Thanksgiving should be shared on a daily basis. Some ways to do this are:

1: Be grateful for the roof over your head and reach out to help those who may not have this luxury

2: Use the magic words thank you when interacting with everyone

3: Write thank you notes just to acknowledge those who are enhancing your personal and professional life

4: Tak a moment simply to call a client and thank them for their support

Thanksgiving Parade Brings Joy

Spirituality: Thanksgiving Bringing Joy

Despite rain those that attended the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade enjoyed themselves. This made me think what is it that you enjoy about the parade. For me

1: The bands and the entertainers at center stage

2: The Ballons- My Favorite is still Kermit followed by Snoopy

3: The Broadcasters and The Gentlema that does the Voice Overs

There  is something magical about waking up early on Thanksgiving and watching the parade and then taking a moment to reflect of all the good that is happening. This year despite some financial challenges I am grateful for the opoortunity to spend time with my Dad and Gina. The energy of the parade and  the joy it creates is is amazing as it propels many of us to assume a position of gratitude and thus reminds us that when we come from gratitude we open ourselves up to receive and give. It is in being grateful on Thanksgiving and through out the year that we can create great things.

Snoppy is one of my favorite characters and somehow I get balanced and centered when I see him in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. On this special day of Thanksgiving may you find balance, joy, abundance, peace, love, and happiness in all that you do and may your light of spirituality shine bright on others.
