Spiritual Awakening: Let’s Get Synergistic!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Let’s Get Synergistic!!!

พลังผนึกและชิ้นส่วนภาพ Through the spiritual awakening process I have noticed that things are very synergistic and that when you begin to peel back the onion you begin to see how everything is interrelated. As I was planning for The Slam Dunk Cancer Basketball Game, which will take place on 12/20/14 at 7:30 PM EST at Boynton Beach High School I though wow The South Florida Gold’s colors are purple and gold and this is really fitting as purple is the official color for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life representing all cancers and gold is the color for pediatric cancer.I found it fascinating that there was this type of synergy and how other things were interrelated.

incredible human synergy 30 Fascinating Dance PicturesHave you ever watched a dance team and wondered how they manage to be so rhythmic and coordinated? It is a special synergistic relationship that they have as they trust one another and work daily on their routine.  When you make that spiritual connection and you create synergy you will see that things in your personal and professional life flow better. When your vibrational patterns resonate with others you are able to connect on the cellular level and thus find that synergy that helps all parties to be successful. It is when you are in tune with others that you are able to create synergistic relationships where all parties benefit. In many cases it is just a matter of asking and answering the question of how can I be of service and value to others?  When you are able to find synergy you will see that you attract the right people to you to assist in exceeding your goals and objectives.  I have learned over the years that the key is to get out of your own way and to allow GOD to direct you to find synergistic relationships. In finding synergistic relationships it is important to detach the belief and mindset of what is in it for me and remove the idea of  direct reciprocity. The law of reciprocity is that if you help and lift others you will be rewarded not by the person you helped directly but from another source.  When you commit  to being kind and helping others you will see kindness coming back to you  and you will receive help. I sat in a Starbucks one afternoon and hung my FREE HUGS Sign and many people came over to inquire what it was about I explained it and gave out business cards and as a result created a few synergistic relationships where I could be of value and service to others. One young couple was very moved by what I was doing that they donated $10 to The American Cancer Society Relay for Life. I asked them for their card so that I could recommend them if anyone needed their services. One key to success is to stay committed to being of service and value to others. Make it a point to make people feel important and lift them up and you will be amazed how you will be rewarded.

Spiritual Awakening: Don’t Try So Hard!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Don’t Try So Hard!!!

 

 As I sat quietly on the bus ride home from Orlando after  The American Cancer Society Relay For Life Leadership Summit I realized that  things get easier when you look at the energy you are bringing to them. As part of the spiritual awakening process one major component is self discovery. The hardest part of the self discovery process is peeling back the onion and doing as Suzanne Kovi says getting naked with yourself. You must strip way all to layers of persona and facade and find who you really are. As you find who you truly are and you realize what was blocking you you begin to grow in mind, body, and spirit. As soon as you realize that you are flawed and need to make changes you begin to transform spiritually, emotionally, and mentally.  As soon as you come to the realization that everything is in divine order just the way it is supposed to be you begin to enhance your personal and professional life.

 As I got off the bus upon arrival to where my car was parked at The American Cancer Society Office and I helped to unload the items that went back into the office I began to think that the best thing I learned from The Relay For Life Leadership Summit was not to try so hard.  I got into my car and the recurring message kept coming in and out of my mind as I drove home, don’t try so hard. When I arrived home I unpacked and this recurring message, don’t try so hard, dominated my thinking. It was GOD and The Ascended Masters telling me to just be me and stop trying so hard to impress people. I sat in quiet meditation and asked GOD what I needed to do and I received the answer of be more mellow in your approach to things, detach from expectations and outcomes, allow life to flow freely. I went to sleep and upon waking upon Sunday (12/7/2014) I was given the message to put football on the backburner and head out to my local Starbucks and to hang my Relay For Life Sign and engage with the patrons sharing what I was doing to help cancer patients and their families. Late in the day a friend came into The Starbucks with a friend of hers that I had never met and we began to talk about Relay For Life and she folded up a bill and put it in the canister. They left we exchanged hugs and then I looked in the canister and her donation was $100. I din’t even ask her for a donation. By not trying so hard I was given a very generous donation. On Monday (12/8/2014) after getting anew phone and transferring all the data to it I traveled to West Boca Raton and started to share Relay For Life with businesses. I decided I would just go with the flow and let things unfold as GOD wanted them to unfold. As a result of detaching from the outcome I secure $44 in donations in a 2 hour period of time. Today (12/9/2014) that friend who I saw at Starbucks went to http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and made a donation. In not trying so hard I am getting better results.

Spiritual Awakening: Let Your Heart Lead The Way!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Let Your Heart Lead The Way!!!

Awaken Your Spiritual Heart: Your Doorway to God’s LoveAs I sat in quiet meditation on Saturday 12/6/2014 while at The Relay For Life Leadership Summit I was compelled to write the following:

 

LIGHTS OF THE HIGHWAY
By Jonathan JDOGG Lederman
     The Lights of The Highway led the way to a special place called Relay
     Some Came To Celebrate
     Some Came To Remember
     All Came To Fight Back
    The Track Was Lined With Luminaria Honoring and Remembering Those Touched by This Disease
    For a Moment Their pain Is At Ease
    The Lights Of The Highway Flicker and Dim Giving A Glimmer Of Hope
    That ThIs Is A Fight We Can Win
The Lights of The Highway Shut Down
     And Frowns are Turned Upside Down
     For The Next Mile is Filled With Smiles
     The Lights of The Highway Are Now In the Rearview
     As there is Now Hope For And You.
   ... spiritual” heart . The spiritual heart is the center of love withinAs I finished writing the above I began to think about the spiritual awakening process and how important it is to let your heart lead you. I also realize that the divine purpose that you are called for is found inside of you. It was at the moment when the sun rose that I realized that this was the day the lord hath made and that I would be glad and rejoice in it. I decided to begin to start greeting people with the phrase hello you are awesome. As I did this I noticed a shift and how people became more energetic and more receptive.  As I continued to do this I saw an energy come to life that became contagious and people were recommitting themselves to help those touched by cancer. As the closing ceremonies came to an end all I could think about was the 12 year old boy Cole who was battling brain cancer and his mom and dad. As I settled in for the bus ride home all I could think about was how important it is to lead with your heart and follow the messages from GOD.
Gabrielle Bernstein | December 3, 2011With my heart on fire and filled with spirit today (12/7/2014) I decided to ask GOD what to do. the answer was do what is in your heart. My heart was filled with a desire to share Relay For Life with everyone I came in contact at Starbucks and let GOD’S hand touch my heart and lead the way. In allowing for GOD to direct you and lead with your heart you might be able to change someone’s life. It is when we  allow ourselves to lead with the heart that we open up a realm of possibilities that we never knew existed. When our heart leads our mind will follow and we will divinely guided to make a difference in our lives and the lives of others.

Spiritual Awakening: Looking Back And Moving Forward!!!

Spiritual Awakening:Looking Back And Moving Forward!!!

 In the spiritual awakening process one must take a look back in order to move forward.  I always suggest that at the end of the year you do a year in review and reflect on all the good that has happened while also seeing how you  have learned from the perceived bad that has happened.  I recommend that when you look back over the year you remember that the rear view mirror is a lot smaller than the windshield.  As you look back, recall all the great things that occurred in your life remember the feeling that you experience and hold that emotion so that when things get a  bit tough as they sometimes will that you can recall that great feeling and remember how that achievement came to pass or how that happiness was achieved and thus take action to move forward and create more greatness in your life.  In the last 10 years I have always made the Month on December a month of reflection where I hold on to the great things that happened and let go of the challenging things.

One the first things I do to reflect is I put on some soft soothing music get out the note book and begin to write this year I was grateful for……….. This years theses things or events brought happiness to my life…….  This year I faced and overcame these challenges…. In doing this exercise I have  found that I have evolved in my spirituality and as a result have been able to lay a solid foundation to begin the new year in a positive way. As we put 2014 in the rear view mirror  and focus on looking at 2015 we have the opportunity to evaluate that which is serving us and improve upon on it and to eliminate that which no longer serves us.  For those that read this blog you know I collect teddy bears as I was going through some items in my car I cam across a State Farm Teddy Bear and realized that I had no real purpose for keeping it so when the chance came to give it away to a mother with a baby I did and I can tell you it felt great to be able to have a positive reflection and create a positive vibration of kindness. As you look back so that you can move forward look at the small gestures that made a positive impact on your life and the lives of others. That $5 donation made at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 may seem small to you but for someone being helped by The American Cancer Society it is very big. The spare change given with love to a Salvation Army Bell Ringer may seem small to you but to the man or women who gets a meal at The Salvation Army Shelter is is huge. Remember it is doing the small things with great love that create the ability to move forward.  As you look back cherish the good things and  remove the bad things.

Spiritual Awakening: Let’s Get Small!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Let’s Get Small!!!

... do no great things, only small things with great love." Mother Teresa This quote from Mother Teresa is very poignant as it relates to the spiritual awakening process. From the  first tine we  go to school we are told you need to be the best, no one remembers who came in 2nd place. This philosophy may hold us back as we begin to awaken and do the tings that will enhance our life and the lives of others as we make being of value and service a priority. Instead of putting the idea of being famous in your mind put the idea of making a positive difference in your community in your mind. When you wake up in the morning answer the question of how can I add value to someone’s day. It could be simply by holding the door as they are entering or exiting a place, it could be a simple phrase like smile things will get better, it could be a simple gesture of throwing some loose change into the bucket of someone soliciting donations. The idea is to do small things with love and to be loving and caring in all you do.  In the last few days my thoughts were consumed with much of the negativity being portrayed on all the news channels and then I made a conscious choice to turn it off and to avoid discussing it as I remembered the teaching that what we focus on expands. In the last few weeks I have had people promise to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 that still have not and I was focusing on their lack of commitment and then I realized this did not serve me so I shifted and began to focus on all those who are helping. In making this shift I have realized that when we focus on the good and appreciate the smallest of gestures we begin to attract more good and as a result we also get better results.  I use to think oh I have to do grandiose things  and then I realized that the small things done with great love become the great tings.  If each day we make a commitment to something small with great love we will see a great change in ourselves and others. It is when we detach from expectations and outcomes that we can see that all we do to enhance our lives and the lives of others matters.

Spiritual Awakening: Are You Engaged?

Spiritual Awakening: Are You Engaged?

When one hears the word engagement they usually conjure up the image of a ring or two people who are planning to get married. Some will go to the extreme of thinking about the rules of engagement as it pertains to battles in war. Others will go right to the concept of engaging their audience so as to maximize their message. Where did you go when you saw this question?  I personally thought about the spiritual awakening process and went tot he idea of being engaged with my inner divinity, the ascended masters, and GOD. I thought for a moment about how I am engaged with my divine purpose and calling and who I may be engaging with to assist me with finding my purpose so as to enhance my spiritual development.  The answer was simple I am using my gifts to find those whose stories will resonate not only with me but with others, Through the spiritual awakening process I have found that my calling is to be of service and value and I must engage with those who share the same vision of sharing the concept that service to humanity is the best work of life. While attending a Singles Expo yesterday (12/23/2014) I cam across many who share the philosophy of being of service and value. One of the ladies doing Psychic Readings and I began to engage and as I told her that she probably sagged her area, picked an oracle card from Doreen Virtue showed up early to create a sacred space for those she was going to read for she said stop you are scaring me. I said don’t worry I have some gifts too and together we can help one another. Her friend seemed to be dealing with some angst and I took her hand and was able to sense that she was holding some stress about The Thanksgiving Holiday. It turns out I was correct and she asked me how I knew and I said I just asked the angels and this is what they told me. She took my card and gave me hers and gave me a big hug and thanked me.  These encounters showed me how important it is to be engaged in all you do.

The Importance of Employee Engagement – MacLeod ReportWhen you begin to get out into the community and share your gifts with others by simply engaging them and showing them you care you begin to awaken more and more spiritually and thus you are able to come alive and help others to do the same. So many times we back off from engaging in dialogue that we miss out on great opportunities. Many allow the fear of no or  receiving an adverse reaction to stop them from engaging with others. I have learned through the spiritual awakening process that engagement and focus are keys to enhancing your personal and professional life while also helping other people to excel. When you are engaged with someone make sure you make it more about them than about yourself and that you encourage them. When you hear them say I can’t remind them that they can and they will because the moving forward in the direction of their goal. When they use the word trying tell them to switch it I am doing.  Remember sometimes just the simple act of showing interest will change their outlook.  In many cases when you engage with someone and you share your why with them you both benefit. Remember people will be more receptive when they know your why as opposed to the what.

Spiritual Awakening: Kindness Begets Kindness!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Kindness Begets Kindness!!!

... Self Care Challenge for today: Perform a random act of kindnesskindnessActs of Kindness As the news stories broke and all the acts of violence I kept thinking where are the stories of kindness.  Through the spiritual awakening process I have learned that what we focus on expands so if we focus on violence and aggression that this is what we will see but if we focus on kindness and caring this is what we will see. I believe no is the time for people to take action and to be kind to one another. It is time to adopt an anthem to be loving and caring in all we do and to show kindness through our actions. I was at Taco Bell yesterday and the cashier asked if I would like to donate $1 to help end world hunger. I gladly gave the $1 as GOD loves a cheerful giver and I told the cashier next time ask if I would like to help feed people. It is the same question phrased differently but the universe responds better when we use positive words. I have been promoting The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton and they adopted a theme of Finish The Fight which sounds great and gets many people’s attention but it goes against spiritual principles because what you resist will persist so now instead of saying Finish The Fight I ask please help me help those touched by cancer get back on a path to health and wellness. In making this shift I have seen better results in my fundraising efforts. The website to help those affected by cancer and to give generously is http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2.  Ask yourself how are you phrasing things and how are your words impeding kindness to flow to you and from you.

Courtesy of the Random Acts of Kindness FoundationThe Kindness WaveI have found that when I make a conscious decision to be kind in whatever I do that I find more success. I have learned during the spiritual awakening process that it is important to be nice regardless of the situation. When you feel yourself  moving away from your kindness zone  take a deep breathe and  be nice. I have learned that people will not always treat you the way you want to be treated  be kind to them anyway.  I host a TV Show, The Anything Bucket, on www.wrpbitv.com that airs on Tuesday at 6:30 PM EST. One of my responsibilities is to secure guests. I am a bit surprised by people when they turn down the opportunity to be on the show. I find myself being a bit critical  then I realize that this does not serve me well so I remember the teachings that some will, some won’t, some waiting, so what, next. I also remember that it is not my job to drag them kicking and screaming along the path but to rather shine my light and show them that there is room on the path and when they are ready they can start. In learning to be kind and focus on the positive I am able to evolve spiritually and thus improve my life and be of service and value to others.

Spiritual Awakening: Action, Action, We Want Action!!!

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.

Heroes finish the fight.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.

Spiritual Awakening: In Your Face!!!

Spiritual Awakening: In Your Face!!!

I can not tell you how many times along my spiritual awakening journey that I wanted to look at someone who was being negative or who responded to me in a negative way and say in your face. Understanding that people will not always resonate with me or do things the way I would do them has allowed me to not be confrontational and to continue in a positive direction of my goals and objectives in my personal and professional life.

Relay For Life Logo 2014 Metro omaha relay for lifeIf you are an avid reader of this blog you know my passion for raising funds for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. While promoting and seeking donations recently I posted  in a Jaycees Group and one of their members replied with this to my request.

you need to stop pushing this issue about donating. it  is NOT GOOD TO SHOVE IT DOWN PEOPLE’S THROATS. if this is what you want to do then YOU DO IT PRIVATELY but DO NOT PUSH THIS ONTO OTHERS.

Spiritual Awakening: Leave Expectations At The Door!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Leave Expectations At The Door!!!

Open-door-question.jpgThrough the spiritual awakening process an important aspect to learn and apply is that of detaching from expectations.  This lesson was very evident as I decided to put my passion into action and run POINTS FOR THE CURE FOOTBALL EDITION for The NCAA and NFL Games played from 10/22-10/28. I thought with all the chatter on Facebook and Twitter about football that this fundraiser for The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton would be well received and the donations would start to pour in. I thought how easy, people agree to donate $.25 (25 cents) per point their team scored and then after the game visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and make their donation. I asked if their team was not playing that they donate $5 or if their team didn’t score at least 20 points that they would donate $5. I thought in taking action and promoting this concept that people would jump on board and the donations would simply flow in.  Boy was I mistaken I found out that many who profess to be doing well on social media are sometimes the excuse makers who are putting on a facade. After I got over my initial disappointment I began to meditate and I realized tat those who are going to participate and donate will do so and those meant to be involved will be. As soon as I turned back to my spirituality I realized that whatever money comes in at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 is a blessing. When I stopped focusing on all those who did not participate and started to show gratitude to those who did participate I felt better and realized that one must check the expectations at the door.

open doorAs you check  the expectations at the door  you begin to experience more joy as you allow things to flow and accept that not everyone will resonate with your message but the ones who do will support you. In checking our expectations at the door we allow ourselves to be open to receiving the messages that GOD wants us to hear and then we are able to take action and see what comes about.  In all we do we must change our perspective and be grateful for the chances we had to be of service and value and the lessons that we learned by taking action. I learned that perhaps Facebook and Twitter are not the best places to promote a project like POINTS FOR THE CURE or Fundraisers maybe it is better to go out into the community and share the message directly with the people.  I often say we never know who we will meet when out in the community and what doors may open. In the spiritual awakening process it is important to get out and share our journey as it might positively impact someone’s life.
