Spiritual Awakening: Grooving On A Sunday Afternoon!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Grooving On A Sunday Afternoon!!!

A

As I sat down at Starbucks to write this entry I took a quick look around and it was amazing to see all the people simply grooving on a Sunday Afternoon. There was a group playing Rummy O, a guy working on editing his photography, people reading, and others simply enjoying life.  As I absorbed all this great positive energy I began to think how important it is to be spiritually awake and in tube with your inner divinity so as to attract much peace, joy, love, and prosperity into your life. I began to realize that if you want to manifest happiness and abundance into your life you must exude happiness and come from a place of abundance. So many times we get caught up in the things we can not control that we forget to take charge of what we can control and thus we create blockages that get in the way of grooving not only on a Sunday afternoon but everyday. Now the question is how are we going to awaken spiritually and take control of our lives and let GOD be our guide. The answer is to first embrace the fact that you are a divine child of GOD destined for greatness. After that it is important to make a commitment to yourself to take care of yourself so that you can be of service and value to others. Then after you begin to be of service and value start to release that which no longer serves you. As you continue to follow your path guided by GOD  you will see that when you are connected to GOD you will see great things unfold so make it a priority to praise and honor GOD daily so that you can grove everyday and reach your higher calling.

Spiritual Awakening: Tools To Help You Groove Everyday!!!

I have found that The Serenity Prayer, Positive Affirmations, and The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz  to be excellent tools in assuming an attitude that will allow me to be open to grooving daily.

I have learned that music can be a great way to get into the groove and to vibrate on a higher level that attracts people  to you so that you can manifest the life that you desire.

 

Over the years I have discovered that books such as these and others available by following the Hay House Link on this page are excellent tools to help you get into the groove.

Kindness is a trait that when put into action serves as great tool to groove daily.

 Giving praise and glory to GOD is a fantastic tool to help keep you centered, focused, and grounded so that you can groove everyday and live life to the fullest.

 

 Essential oils and incense are excellent tools to use while clearing your mind so as to groove daily.

Meditation has served as an exceptional tool in releasing that which may be stopping you from grooving daily.

Take a moment to walk in nature and create a sacred space where you can go to communicate with GOD, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels so as to receive the guidance that will allow you to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually as you continue to make the mind, body, and soul connection.

Find spiritual places like The Rice Terraces in the Philippines and take a trip without all the accouterments that we have grown accustom to and simply take in the messages as you get connected to source. Sometimes the greatest tool we have is our ability to detach and disconnect from the human life that we have come to know and get in touch with our divinity.

 

When I find it difficult to get into a groove or I find myself stuck I use the tool of reflection to remind me just how good my life has been and I remember times that brought great joy and a sense of accomplishment into my life like the 6 months from July 2002 – February 2003 when I was a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer in Buang La Union, Philippines. I look at the photo of the church and the arch and I realize how many lives I touched and how the people in this community changed my life and it gets me into a positive frame of mind knowing that I am capable of great things and if I can not do great things to do small things with great love. It is said that photographs and memories are great tools to help you get into the groove.

Spiritual Awakening: JDOGG’S Gift For You To Groove Everyday!!!

Namaste!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Making The Big Score!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Making The Big Score!!!

 We have all heard someone exclaim I made a big score be it after closing a big sale, making a clutch basket, scoring the winning touchdown, kicking a winning field goal, receiving a great care package, or releasing weight. Sometimes we get so caught up in making the big score that we forget the steps needed to take to make the big score. The first step is to get centered, focused, and grounded understanding why we desire to make the big score.  I remember  about a year ago I wanted to make a big score with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton but first I had to define the reason why. Once I realized that my why was to honor the memory of my mother, Judith Miller, who God called home on July 5, 2012, things began to flow easily and GOD started to send me messages on how I could make the big score. It was when I listened and acted upon those messages that I started to make a big score. One Day GOD and The Angels told me to write to Doreen Virtue. I did and I told Doreen why I was doing Relay For Life and her reply was favorable and she put me in touch with her publicist at HAY HOUSE. I spoke to the publicist and a few weeks later what many would consider a big score as a care package arrived at my condo containing over $800 worth of Doreen Virtue items to use in my fundraising efforts. Well not only did I raise over $2700 for The West Boca Relay I was able to spread the wealth by sharing the items with other Relays. In knowing why you are doing something you can make a big score.

Spiritual Awakening: Tools To Help You Make The Big Score!!!

 I have found that in adopting songs like Matthew Wilder’s, Nothing Going Break My Stride to be a great tool to stay focused and thus enabling us to score big while making a mind, body, and soul connection.
Gratitude is a fantastic tool that will propel you to making the big score.

Spiritual Awakening: Trick Or Treating With A Purpose!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Trick Or Treating With A Purpose!!!

 

Just For Halloween – 2012 Halloween Light Show – Gangnam Style1810-trick-or-treat-2880x1800-holiday-wallpaper.jpg As I awoke today I was given a message on this Halloween to Trick Or Treat With A Purpose!!!! Though I am 49 years old and a little bit old to go door to door I answered this call from my spiritual guides and began to post the following message on Facebook and Twitter, TRICK OR TREAT Instead of candy I am asking everyone to visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and donate to help those affected by cancer. I put it out there and detached from all expectations and decided to just let it flow as it may and  understand that those meant to donate will visit the site and make a donation. As I continued through the morning posting this message I received the message to go to Starbucks like I do each Friday but instead of giving out hugs today hang a sign that says Strike Out Cancer Today and to dress up as a baseball player and to play the role of relief pitcher.  I made a sign on my computer and went to Starbucks, where I am now writing this entry from. Again I am detaching from the expectations and just allowing things to flow and those that are meant to come my table will do so and make a donation and any money collected will be more than I had when I started.  The idea is to use the resources we have to Trick Or Treat With A Purpose Today!!! We have a great opportunity to spread our message and to shine our light so that the entire world becomes illuminated.

il_570xN.499073771_b7vf.jpgImagine there is a knock on the door and as you hand out the candy you hand out sheets with bible verses on them as well. If not bible verses perhaps affirmations or quotes. This will allow you to share your spiritual awakening with others and perhaps help people to either get on a spiritual path or to continue on their spiritual path, You may get some blow back by taking this action to share your message. Another great thing to do is to hand out messages from the ascended masters and explain that Jesus is an ascended master. In using Halloween and trick or treating as a catalyst to spread the word you will be trick or treating with a purpose.

Spiritual Awakening: Find Your Purpose And Take Action!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Find Your Purpose And Take Action

 

 It is said there are two important days in your life the day you are born and the day you figure out why.  As you search for your purpose be aware of the signs that are being presented to you in The Spiritual Awakening process. In GOD’s Kingdom we all have a purpose and every purpose is important. In answering this calling and living a life of purpose we manifest the life that we desire. If we are to  change and come alive and be of service and value to our community we must begin to find the purpose on our path to spiritual enlightenment. In being passionate and taking action we become successful in our personal and professional life. It is when we are aligned physically, mentally, and spiritually that we are able to act on our purpose and create peace, love, joy, and prosperity in our lives. It is important to be aware of the messages that are being sent to us so that we can act on purpose. In his book The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren speaks about doing one lesson a day for 40 days as it took 40 days for things to come to fruition through out The Bible. Starting today begin to take action on embracing your purpose. Each day look for the signs and act upon them accordingly.

 In understanding your purpose and being fully committed to fulfilling that purpose you will begin to find that your life flows freer  and that you will experience more joy. Many times we will find our purpose but for some reason we are held back from taking action. As a result of not flowing with our purpose we are left with the would of, should of, could of discussion and we find our self looking back hoping we could change things. Understanding we can not change the past and we can not control the future will enable us to live a life of purpose and shine in the moment.

Spiritual Awakening: GOD’S Master Plan!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: GOD’S Master Plan!!!

 

 As I was given the news that an announcing gig I had was cancelled I was a bit upset, however after realizing that the cancellation is part of my spiritual awakening and that it is all part of GOD’S Master Plan I understood that something better is coming my way. I spent most of my morning today (7/20/13) praising good and cleansing my condo of all negative energies and infusing the condo with positive energy. I kept thanking GOD for I understand he will make a way and that his plan’s for me are far greater than my plans for me.  As I finished with my praise and my daily rituals to get centered and grounded I realized that everything happens for a reason and that perhaps GOD was protecting me from something concerning the announcing gig. As I sat in meditation, the message was clear JDOGG stop undervaluing your services you are worth everything you charge and abundance is your birthright.  As I came out  of the meditation I was directed to make a phone call to the franchise owner of another team that I work with. It was then that I called the owner of one of the other sports teams I work with and she gave me some solid guidance and reaffirmed that there was something else GOD wanted me to do and that was help one of her players get to The All Star Game.  It was then that I decided to promote www.miamifuryfootball.com and ask people to donate to help the player get to The All Star Game. I also realized that it is not always about the money that in many cases it is about being of service and value and understanding the money will follow. It is when we understand that it is GOD’S Master Plan that directs us that we begin to have success. It is through our gratitude to GOD that we are given the riches that are our birthright. It is when we seek GOD that the answers come. We are all divine children of GOD with spiritual gifts and when we embrace the divinity and utilize our spiritual gifts for good that we are awakened spiritually and thus able to help others have a spiritual awakening.

    All through out our spiritual teachings we have learned that the best thing we can do is let go and let GOD for GOD knows the plans he has for us. It is not for us to make things happen it is for us to allow GOD to direct us what to make happen. Today loom fro the messages that GOD is giving you and take action upon those messages. Today adopt an anthem that will help you to better understand that GOD has a master plan for you.  As part of your spiritual awakening do things to glorify and honor GOD.

Spiritual Awakening: Robert Frost Delivers Positive Message!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Robert Frost Delivers Postive Message!

 Have you ever found yourself at a crossroads and you had a choice I could follow everyone elses footsteps or I could make my own path and leave my own foot prints for others to follow? Many people find themselves following what others are doing and in many cases regret not stepping up and stepping out. It is when we decide to take the path less traveled by that we often discover our authentic self and create things that we only thought imaginable. How many times have you been told you can’t do that or you are not good enough, how many times have you listened to these statements and not gotten on you path? How many times have you bought into trying to be the next someone instead of being the first you. I was told the other day you can be the next Brent Mussburger as much as I admire him and his work as a n announcer I said thanks but I am going to be the first Jonathan JDOGG Lederman. I have come to realize taht inorder to expand spiritualy and to continue on the path of spiritual awakening that I must take the path less traveled by.

Spiritual Awakening: Are You Living Your Purpose?

Spiritual Awakening: Are You Living Your Purpose?

I have read Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life and use it as a reference to help me stay focused on the endeavors that I have undertaken. I have discovered through out the years that my purpose is to help others be it with improving their business or enhancing their personal life. I often ask myslef Am I Living My Purpose? Am I do all I can do to help others get what they want so I will get what I want?  I have been living my purpose over the last few years as evidenced by my work with The American Cancer Society Relay For Life, as I believe in the concept of creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays. I have a purpose to get the word out and raise funds for research, education, advocacy, and services and thus have set up a page at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogglederman to fufill this purpose. On February 23-24, 2013 I will be part of The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton at Loggers Run Middle School.  This is waht led me to write this entry today as  I ask are you living your purpose?

       

The question is how do I find my purpose and how do I live my life on purpose?  First you must look inside and find what makes you come alive and then find a way to integrate that into your life. Secondly you must block out those who say you can not do it and find the confidence to follow your purpose. And thirdly it is imperative that you continue to nourish your mind, body, and soul by learning and feeding your purpose. Everyday that youa re awake is another day to live your purpose. There will be messages that lead you to your purpose. It is importantant that you take action on that message and follow your passion so you can live on purpose.

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: Living On Purpose

Spiritual Awakening: Living On Purpose

How many times do we ask what is my purpose? When  we awake and begin to realize that our true purpose is to be of service and value to all that we come in contact with and thus make our world a better place by helping others we truly grow and expand. Today I was out promoting The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards and went to Magics Arcade and as I stated I came to introduce myself the gentleman behind the counter said he wasn’t interested and isn’t buying anything. I answered with how silly are you going to be to not be open to receive and thus let an opportunity to bring business to you go by the wayside. After a dialogue he came around and thanked me.I left feeling that part of my purpose of helping other people excel was met as the next time someone comes into his business he may take this lesson and grow and expand thus creating more success for him and his business. The key is to know why did you open your business? Why are you doing what you are doing?
