TIME TO REPROGRAM?

TIME TO REPROGRAMA great reading received today from friend Clint Hurdle!!It really caught my attention and talks directly to what I work at to impart to others!A couple of paragraphs from the reading I ask you to really think about!”A gardener would not plant seeds unless the ground was adequately prepared to nurture and nourish those seeds. The planting would be wasted effort. It would be wasted effort for us to get what we wanted before we were ready.
First, we need to become aware of our need or desire. This may not be easy! Many of us have become accustomed to shutting off the inner voice of our wants, needs, and desires. Sometimes, life has to work hard to get our attention.”So many know they need a major overhaul of their inner self. They have learned to shut off that small quiet voice within, they have lost the essence of who they truly are.I needed help to get my garden ready. If I could have done it myself, I would have. Gosh  knows I tried!!If you are getting a twinge by these words, read the article in full.You may come to the conclusion that it is time to reprogram your life, to transform it  and may even reach out for the help you need to prepare your garden!

Times of ReprogrammingDo not ask for love unless you’re ready to be healed enough to give and receive love.Do not ask for joy unless you’re ready to feel and release your pain, so you can feel joy.Do not ask for success unless you’re ready to conquer the behaviors that would sabotage success.

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could imagine ourselves having or becoming – and then immediately receiving – what we wanted? We can have and be the good things we want. All good things are ours for the asking. But first, groundwork – preparation work – must be done.
A gardener would not plant seeds unless the ground was adequately prepared to nurture and nourish those seeds. The planting would be wasted effort. It would be wasted effort for us to get what we wanted before we were ready.
First, we need to become aware of our need or desire. This may not be easy! Many of us have become accustomed to shutting off the inner voice of our wants, needs, and desires. Sometimes, life has to work hard to get our attention.
Next we let go of the old programming: the behavior and beliefs that interfere with nurturing and nourishing the good. Many of us have strong sabotaging programs, learned from childhood, that need to be released. We may need to act as if for a while until the belief that we deserve the good becomes real.
We combine this process with much letting go, while we are being changed at the core.
There is naturalness to this process, but it can be intense. Things take time.
Good things are ours for the asking, if we are willing to participate in the work of groundbreaking. Work and wait.
