We Are Entering The Month of LOVE?

No Name CanyonDon't we all just love love? Such a great feeling. Gratitude is a form of love, what are you grateful for? I remember being asked to write a list of things I was grateful for and to make it at least 100 things. "Impossible!" was the first thought I had. But being the good student that I am, I started on my list. Something happened at about the #20 mark. Things started streaming into my brain faster than I could write them down! I surpassed #100 and the time was up but I wanted to keep going!

It is amazing what happens when we focus. Here's a suggestion. This upcoming Valentine's Day, why not write a list of the things you are grateful for in the person you love. I guarantee you will blow their socks off! Do it and let me know what happens.

The contest to rename this newsletter carries on! So many great suggestions are coming in I thought I would just let it run a bit longer. But only until February 7th, then I have to make a decision.

We've been toodleing about on the vast desert again. This time in an area called No Name Canyon. By far the most enthralling scenery I have seen in the past three winters. My buddies are determined to help me overcome my claustrophobia and are very patient and kind. Just look at what I did! (See pic.) Look verrrry closely in the centre of the photo and you will see a red sweater. I’m in the sweater! Walking sideways between rock walls. One can walk for miles between these walls a hundred feet high with sometimes wide and often very narrow passages, such as here.

At Last! Finally, I am announcing the title of my book. You will find it below. I'd love your feedback.

When we strike out on the path of goaling, there is one thing we all have that can put roadblocks in our way. This issue's
"To Your Goal Progress" article will reveal what it is and how to blast through those roadblocks!

*       Opening Monologue: A unique Valentine's gift

WHAT'S LYNN UP TO?

Book Update:

reading

BOOK UPDATE:Drum rolls! Trumpets blare! A voice declares….. “Attention please!” At long last the title of Lynn’s book is announced! And that title is………………..

INSPIRATIONAL GOALING

The following is what may appear on the back cover:

During the past century or so, the various methods of reaching goals have been predominantly taught from a Left-Brain perspective. As a two thirds left-brain person even Lynn Moore, a professional goal coach, had an intuition there must be more to it. She wondered many times what was missing. Until her own experience traveling to Kathmandu, Nepal to teach English to Buddhist monks revealed the answer. In this book, Lynn brings you along on her adventures in Nepal including her rescue of a small, starving, sick dog that she found rummaging in garbage for a morsel of edible food. Named 'Atma', a Nepali word meaning 'Soul', Lynn attributes the soul connection she and her loving friend have with the inspiration to write this book. At the same time Lynn teaches her fail-safe method of goal accomplishment using the art of the multi-dimensional freedom of the Right-Brain. She calls it "Inspirational Goaling".

Quote from the publisher after reading the manuscript: "I'm having a hard time finding anything to critique about this book." I am over the moon! The book will be available on my web site by end of April.

TO YOUR GOAL PROCESS

"Why Is This Happening To Me?"

Whatever your age right now, if you can read this, you have a past that you can recall. Just take a few moments now and think about your past. How would you describe it? Easy, tough, slow, fast, full, mostly happy, very sad, busy, regretful, joyful, etc. etc.

How you see your past actually has a tremendous effect on how you will see the accomplishment of your goals unfolding. I haven't met anyone who tells me their life has been a day at the fair. I have met many who have told me their life has been like slogging through deep, sticky mud. Either way, it's not what has happened in your past, it's how you remember it. Our minds can play such tricky games with us depending on our perception. It is this perception that you carry with you, not the experience.

Let's say you experienced failing a grade in elementary school. Or, your marriage ended in divorce, or you were a victim of abuse, or you lost a child, suffered betrayal, addictions, physical disability, being an outcast in high school, and on and on. This is tough, yes.

During tough times, did you ask "Why me?" "What am I being punished for?" "Am I a bad person" “What did I do to deserve this?" "I can't take it anymore!" Most likely you did, I know I did in my younger years. Plus we tend to put the blame on someone else to ease our own conscience.

So we have perception, questioning and/or blaming, things which factor into how you see some of the events in your life thus far. Then when it comes to goaling and looking ahead, there will be clouds on the horizon of your future if you haven't come to terms with your past. Your perception may be, "I've had so many bad things happen to me, I'm sure I won't have much good in my future." "God seems to have it in for me and I don't know why." "My marriage failed because my ex husband was a jerk." etc.

The good news is that all this can change.

Try this. Let's say that all the 'bad' things that have occurred in your past are all written on individual 'tickets'. There is a machine in front of you with a slot to insert a ticket. With a shrug you think 'why not' and you stick one of your tickets in the slot. Suddenly lights flash, horns, bells and whistles sound and eventually your ticket returns to you with something written on the back. You read these words: "What was the value in this lesson?"

Now you are thinking "Whadya mean, lesson?! What does this have to do with my ex husband being a jerk? I'm not in school here!" So you insert another ticket. Lights, horns, bells, and whistles later it comes back with the very same words on the back! A few more tickets with the same result and you're now frustratingly thinking this is a dumb machine; it must be broken and throwing the tickets on the ground and stomp off.

But those words, "What was the lesson in this situation?" keep ticker taping across your brain. You try to read, try to sleep, try to watch TV, but they keep intruding. You think of your failed marriage. "Well, guess my ex husband wasn't really a jerk, we just didn't know how to talk with each other. Maybe I was over-reactive sometimes." A few hours later you think about it again and add "We really were very different in our personalities and wanted different things out of life." And later, "He was an okay guy, we just mixed like oil and water and possibly I was as much to blame." Still later, "I learned quite a bit from that marriage, that a couple should really get to know each other before making a lifetime commitment and talk about important things like finances, goals, kids, each other’s families and such." BINGO! The machine wasn't broken after all.

You see, it's a "Change Your Perception" machine. It's very necessary for you to insert all your tickets for past experiences around which you have a painful perception, are questioning in any way except "What am I to learn?" and rendering yourself powerless with blaming. In fact, seeing as there really is no "Change Your Perception" machine except in your imagination, why not make your tickets as described above and write the words "Where was the value in this lesson?" on the backs? The answers may not come quickly, but if you hold the ticket in your hand and ponder occasionally, the answers will come.

No experience in your life, good or bad, is without value. Although that may sound ludicrous when you are thinking of nasty ones, as you actually look at the possibility of value from them, you will be amazed to find it.

Once you recognize this, the goaling path is cleared of debris. You have become a 'forward thinker' instead of mired in negative emotions of your past.

Make it a goal!

RECOMMENDED READING
books

Books are some of my closest friends. Even in my RV one overhead storage cupboard is dedicated to my library. Below are some classics and some newbies that I'm sure will become classics:

'Man's Search For Meaning' Viktor Frankl. Written in 1945, it is the story of Dr. Viktor Frankl's years of unspeakable horror in Nazi prison camps and how he, as a psychiatrist, not only survived but went on to develop the most significant psychological movement of the modern day.

'The E Myth Revisited' Michael Gerber. Anyone in a business or contemplating beginning a business would do themselves an honour if they read this book. Subtitled: "Why most small businesses don't work and what to do about it"

'A Whole New Mind' Daniel Park. Exciting and entertaining. Taking a peek at where we are going after the Information Age'.

'The Alchemist' Paulo Coelho'. An oldie but goodie modern classic worth a re-read often. Written as a fable, it teaches us the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts and following our dreams.

'The Moses Code' James Twyman. Book and DVD. Another outstanding publication from Hay House. This book and DVD had a profound impact on me!

'The Last Lecture' Randy Pausch. The legacy left by one man with an incredible soul to his wife, children and the entire world. Magnificent!

'The Pillars of the Earth' A superb piece of fiction by Ken Follett

Three Cups of Tea' Greg Mortenson & David Oliver Relin. "Thrilling proof that one ordinary person, with the right combination of character and determination really can change the world" - Tom Brokaw

'You Can Heal Your Life' DVD and book by Louise Hay

'The Secret' DVD and book by Rhonda Byrne

'Eat, Pray, Love' Elizabeth Gilbert'

'Five Wishes' Gay Hendricks

'The Four Agreements' Don Miguel Ruiz

'Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus' Dr. John Gray

'Conversations With God', Books 1,2 & 3 Neale Donald Walsch
