Spiritual Awakening: Chicago Inspires A New Beginning

Spiritual Awakening: Chicago Inspires A New Beginning!!!

As I sat and thought about what to write about today all the messages pointed to the idea of beginnings. As I listened to the song by Chicago, Beginnings I began to realize that each day gives us a new beginning and that each day we have 24 hours to make a positive impact on our life and on the lives of others. I then began to ask the question what is it that you have been meaning to begin but haven’t due to excuses or the fear of what others may say or think about it?  I then began to ask what is it that is holding you back? Then I found this quote by Lao Tzu,

 and immediately thought it is time to take that first step and watch things unfold. What might be holding you back from taking that first step is it fear? I found this video and I hope it inspires you to put your fear aside and to step into your greatness and to shine your light as it is only the beginning:

Is your new beginning being stymied by the idea that you lack funds to put it into action. I found the following affirmation video about money and I hope it assists you in creating your new beginning.

Spiritual Awakening: Walking With Spirit!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Walking With Spirit!!!!

        

Today as I was working in the club room at my clubhouse is Sunrise, FL a worker from our complex cam in and he was wearing a Christmas Hat and jingle bells. I commented how I liked his Christmas Spirit and he replied thanks just doing my part to spread some joy. I thought for a moment and thought he is walking in spirit.  I thne began to think how can we all walk in spirit and show the 7 fruits of spirit through our actions and then I thought simply by allowing ourselves a moment to be grateful for what we have and having the ability to share with others. Today answer the question of what am I grateful for and how will  help others. You will see that soon you are walking in spirit and your entire outlook will change.

 Donna Summer delivers a message that will help you to walk in spirit as you continue to shine your light as you become a beacon of hope to others.

Matisyahu sends a message of givinga  gift by shining his light for the victims of Hurricane Sandy as he will be donating the proceeds from the sales of this cd to those affected by Hurricane Sandy.

Spiritual Awakening: Zig Ziglar Leaves Legacy of Inspiration

Spiritual Awakening: Zig Ziglar Leaves Legacy of Inspiration

     

It was abou 10 AM on 11/28/12 when the news came across the wire that Zig Ziglar, The Great Motivator, made his transition at age 86. His lessons will live on for many years as they have been written and recorded and they will resonate as they make sense. Think about the first quote as it shows us that we can be great if we get started. The 2nd quote is so very true as the law of reciprocity is true. The idea of being motivated everyday is importnat as it propels us to success. As I reflected on Zig Ziglar’s teachings I began to think about the idea of being inspired and inspiring others.

     On way to inspire others is to do good deeds. By helping others you begin to find yourself  as you find a joy in the knowledge that your act of love and kindness enhanced someome’s life. One of the good deeds that I do each year is particpiate and emcee The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton. It is my hope to inspire people to support this effort and have them visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogglederman and make a donation.  The good deeds we do will last long after we are gone. I have  asked in past entries what will your legacy be?  Zig Ziglar’s legacy was one of hope and inspiration.

         Self discovery is a great way to find your talents to use to be inspired and to inspire others. If you have a great smile share it and see what happens. It is when you begin to be your authentic self that you are able to enhance your life and then enhance others. Write down I am Great, I make a difference in my life and other’s lives, I give and receive, I shine a light wherever I go and begin to internalize these thoughts and watch your greatness come through.

Spiritual Awakening: Overcoming Fear: What is Your Deepest Fear?

Spiritual Awakening: Overcoming  Fear

As I watched the movie Coach Carter and heard him ask what is your deepest fear I began to think, what is it that is holding you back from maximizing your mission? I then thought of the following Marianne Williamson “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

 

 

I have had the opportunity to meet many people who have put the fear they had aside annd decided to go for it. One individual that I met recently and applaud and celebrate is Anissa Pfannenstiel who is doing amazing work in the community.
