As you experience a spiritual awakening you will find yourself reflecting back on choices that you have made and how they have shaped your life up until the point that you are at today. Today (5/8/2019) you have choices to make you can dwell on what is wrong in your life or you can focus on what is good in your life. You can point fingers at others or you can hold yourself accountable and take action to manifest the life that you desire. The biggest choices you will make is how you will react to the situations that are happening all around you. As you awaken spiritually and find your purpose you will find yourself asking a question of how your choices will serve you personally, professionally, and spiritually. When you find what serves you and eliminate that which no longer serves you it will open up the blockages that have been holding you back from becoming the version of you that GOD wants you to become.
Spiritual Awakening: Opening The Happiness Portal!!!
As I was out promoting The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and collecting donations I discovered something and that is when you exude happiness you vibrate at a higher level thus attracting people to assist you in your effort to be of service and value to others. In taking action and reminding yourself that GOD loves a cheerful giver and detaching from the outcome you will find that you open a happiness portal that can only be closed if you allow the attitude of others to drain you of your happiness. Regardless of where you stand personally, professionally, or spiritual there is one key to living your life in joy and bringing joy to others and that is keeping your happiness portal open. Today (5/7/2019) I decided to take action and fight through that which was blocking me from entering the happiness portal. As a result I found myself having more success in all that I was doing. In detaching from the outcome and not taking anything personally I was able to step into my power and have good encounters with those I came in contact with during the day. As I stopped worrying about what others would think I began to find myself bringing more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my day. In being open and honest with myself it became easier to step in to the happiness portal and focus on the present. In being my friendly and outgoing self I was able to use my talents for good and positively impact the lives of others.
When you have a spiritual awakening and you commit to being truthful to yourself by peeling back the onion and getting to your core you will see that your life begins to flow just as GOD has intended. Many times we thwart our spiritual growth because we are trying to impress others and we become something we are not. When this happens we find ourselves allowing EGO, which is edging GOD out, to get in our way. We often get so caught up in worrying about what others will think about us that we stop doing what GOD is guiding us to do and as a result we find ourselves creating hardships for ourselves. Now is the time to look deep inside of ourselves and to tap into our divinity by being true to ourselves. Don’t be afraid to speak your truth and be honest with yourself and others. Take solace in knowing that is okay to feel angst for the trials and tribulations that we go throw strengthen us and allow us to be true to ourselves. We are taught to visualize what we want and to act as if and this is all well and good if it doesn’t compromise your core beliefs and who you are. It is important to stay centered, focused, and grounded as you take the action necessary to stay true to your self. In being true to who you are and finding your purpose you will find yourself attracting more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. In the last 40 years of my life I have had ups and downs and in some cases found myself struggling because I wasn’t being true to who I am thus creating blockages that have slowed the process of evolving personally, professionally, and spiritually. In order to affect change I found that I had to come alive and detach from outcomes and serve my community and sometimes I had to stand alone. It was in standing for something that I found my calling and have been able to continue to be of service and value to others. The fact of the matter is that I needed to see what I was doing to create the situations I found myself in and were they in alignment with what GOD had planned for me. I had to take feelings and emotions out of the equation and allow everything to flow the way GOD intended. One element that has helped me to be true to myself is the element of forgiveness.
As you experience a spiritual awakening you may sense that your mojo is getting knocked down. The question is how do you get it back up? The answer is that you go deep inside and tap into your inner divinity. In tapping into your inner divinity you will find that any issues that are stopping you from reaching your full spiritual potential are due to your perspective and reactions. This has been the case for me over the last several months as I have been struggling financially. I have been so quick to judge others that I lost sight of the 3rd agreement which is don’t make judgments. I kept thinking that people were doing me wrong instead of looking it from their perspective and understanding that the way thing are and the way things should be are 2 different things. I also began to look inside and to take responsibility for what was happening. The set backs that I have faced over the last 10 months since my DAD was called home to GOD have affected my mojo and I was feeling down and began to become fraught with anxiety and depression. It has been scary knowing that I am very close to becoming homeless because of decisions I made. I thought many people would rally to my assistance and buy the contents of my condo as I really only need a bed and a TV and some clothes some have come through in a big way and I am grateful for them. I am grateful to all those who have visited www.gofundme.com/help-jdogg-save-his-condo-and-more and made a donation. I have come to realize that I may get knocked down but of I can look up I can get up and find my mojo and begin to attract those meant to help me so that I can continue on my mission to be of service and value to others. As I begin to find ways to get my mojo back I am reminded that there are many people who will reach out to help. Such was the case today when a friend of mine who recently lost his mother was cleaning out her condo and offered me some of the crystal figurines that she had.The figurines had great value unfortunately I couldn’t break away to pick them up. I thought for a minute and realized that if GOD intends for me to have the figurines he will find a way for me to have them.
The theme of the day today (4/30/2019) seems to be living life like a boss. I was out collecting donations for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life and was refereed to as boss on a few occasions. I then stopped by Dunkin Donuts and the cashier kept calling me boss. I then saw the newest campaign for The American Cancer Society and thought there must be something to living life like a boss. The first step to living life like a boss is to have confidence.
When you find your confidence and become spiritually awake you will find that living a life of purpose becomes easier thus allowing you to live your life like a boss. As you continue on your spiritual path you will find that if you go confidently in the direction of your dreams you will be shown the way to live your life like a boss. In living your life like a boss you will find that being of service and value to others plays a major role. I have found that by showing the service to humanity is the best work of life that I am rewarded for GOD loves a cheerful giver. In becoming a cheerful giver GOD will allow you to live your life like a boss.
As you awaken spiritually it is important to see who is coming to your spiritual table. It is important to make sure the people coming to your spiritual table have your best interest in mind and will be of service and value to you. Many times in our human existence we allow people to come to our spiritual table that are toxic and thus they contaminate the entire table with their negative energy.
When you hear the words brace for impact it normally conjures up the image that something bad is about to happen. How many of you when your read the headline thought oh no here comes a bad story? Well I am here to tell you that this is not a bad story but a story about personal, professional, and spiritual growth. I chose the title as a result of reviewing videos of me announcing sporting events, emcee charitable events, interview people for a TV Show that I used to host, and some speeches I delivered. I was reflecting and then began to read comments and began to understand the impact that I have been making by being of service and value to others. Despite some setbacks over the years I have been able to move forward and positively impact the lives of others. Though I may not have gotten recognition for this impact I know in my heart that I took the proper action to show people that service to humanity is the best work of life.
When you experience a spiritual awakening you will begin to understand that when your flow is based on peace, love, joy, and prosperity your ability to create the life you desire will become easier as you go from a lack mentality to an abundance mentality. In order to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually you need to be aware of your flow meter. In becoming aware and awake you will be able to measure your flow based on the way your body feels for when your flow is good you will find that you don’t have blockages however when your flow is off you will find that you may experience physical pain and mental anguish. The question is what to do when your flow is off and you feel disconnected? The answer is to take a moment to breathe and get reconnected to GOD, Jesus, Source, and Spirit. As you check your flow meter remember to take action to increase your vibrations to a higher level of resonance thus allowing you to attract peace, love, joy, and prosperity into your life. When you feel that your flow is low stop for a moment and consult with GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels so that you are guided to move in a positive direction while continuing on your spiritual path. Sometimes it is better to simply rest and relax when your vibration is at a low frequency than to go out into the world for you ability to increase your flow may be compromised and as a result your human side interferes with your spiritual side and you make a poor decision that makes a situation worse. In many cases we get so wrapped up in the way thing should be that we forget that there are somethings best left alone as it is not our job to drag people onto our path. It is our job to go down our path and be guided by GOD and let others see our positive actions so that when they are ready to get on the path they will be ready. If we are to keep our flow meter on high we need to become action takers and awakening to our calling so that we can effectively change our community. When we check our flow meter we are able to take the steps necessary to stay on track or to get back on track to fulfill the purpose that GOD has set before us. As for me I believe my purpose is to be of service and value to others.
Today one of my demons reared its ugly head in the form of anger and aggressiveness. Once the dust cleared I had a spiritual awakening that I need to put all the anger that has built up inside of me over the last 10 months behind me and turn back to GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels and allow them to guide me to a life filled with much peace, love, joy, and prosperity. I learned that as righteous as I may want to be be it is not my job to be the morality police and that it is better to simply let others that are in a position of enforcement to take care of things. I have always believed if you see an injustice being done and you do nothing you are just as guilty as the person committing the injustice however after today’s encounter I was further awakened to the fact that they way things are and the way things should be are two different things. I have learned that there are some people who are simply oblivious to doing the right thing and some people are just straight out mean. Today (4/9/2019) I encountered good and bad as I was at Starbucks and asked 2 ladies if I could share their table only to be cursed out in a foreign language then a lady saw what was happening and said come here and plug in. It turns out this lady was studying child psychology and we had a nice interaction. This gave me back the belief that there are some good people in this world. I then checked out www.relayforlife.org/sunrisetamaracfl and saw that the fundraising thermometer rising which again restored my belief that service to humanity is the best work of life. It was at that point I asked GOD for forgiveness and guidance to face down my demons and to become a positive action taker where I actions would positively impact the live of others.
Spiritual Awakening: Stepping Back To Move Forward!!!
As many of the regular readers of this blog are aware I am very involved with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. 2019 marks my 21st year as a participant in The American Cancer Society Relay For Life. I decided to take a step back this year and simply be a participant and to focus on my fundraising and as a result I have raised $3951 so far to help plant the seeds of hope and healing for those touched by cancer by funding research, education, advocacy, and services. In stepping back and letting others take on leadership roles I have been able to move forward. Sometimes we simply have to take a look at something from a different perspective to see how it serves us so that we can mover forward in our quest to be spiritually aware and awake. I learned some valuable lessons in the last 10 months and the most important lesson that I learned was that you don’t always have to be the center of attention. I also have learned to go where you are celebrated and not just tolerated. I have also learned that not everyone is going to share my passion and that is okay. In stepping back and detaching from expectations I have been able to attract more peace, joy, love, and prosperity into my life.
I am sharing the following standings for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life as of 6:00 PM today (4/8/2019) as to illustrate what happens when you simply let people do their thing on their terms and step back. When you simply find your lane and stay in your lane becoming laser focused you will find that you grow personally, professionally, and spiritually.
