Do You Speak UP?

“How Do You Speak Up Fearlessly?”

speakingI’ve been speaking up a lot on Facebook about the recent situation in Indiana where war has pretty much been declared on gay people.

They are trying to instigate a new law there saying that it’s OK for businesses to discriminate against and not serve gay people.

I received two interesting notes: one from someone saying “you must be gay since you are standing up for gay people, and why don’t you shut up!”

The other note was from someone admiring me for speaking up, and how ever did I have the nerve to do it!

The first person had it all wrong. No, I’m not gay (even if I was – so what?). Whether or not I am is not even the issue. No I won’t shut up (!). And no, I don’t put up with bigots, so I un-friended him.

WE ALL LOSE IF WE DON’T SPEAK UP

It’s very clear that if businesses are allowed to discriminate against one section of the populace willy-nilly, it won’t be long before it’s OK for them to exclude blacks, latinos, breast-feeding mothers, single women, left-handed cowboys and sandy beach bums. In other words, anyone.

I Remember

Because I remember very clearly what it was like in the 50s and 60s before we fought for black freedom. I was there in that fight, and the fight for abortion, and the fight for women to have bank accounts and to be able to buy a house or just sign a contract without having a husband, as well as the many other fights we have won over the years.

We fought hard to legalize those rights, and to see them erode before my eyes makes me furious and sick to my stomach.

This is wrong, and I won’t stand for it and I won’t shut up. I “have the nerve” to speak up because my passion drives me. I know what we, as a people, will lose if I and others don’t speak up.

 

Courage, Clarity & Confidence

What happens when you lack courage?

sm-shy-3hYou think about what you’d like to do…but then you just cave in and don’t do it, right?

Repeatedly.

And then you wonder why you aren’t where you want to be in your life or business.

Opportunities that would allow you more freedom and prosperity flow by you every day, but you either don’t even see them through your veil of fears, or you don’t have the energy, strength or courage to reach out and grab them.

You then kick yourself left-wise from Sunday, and spend precious time wondering why things are going so badly, or why you can’t take your success to the next level.

You might even blame someone or something, thinking or saying it’s their fault.

You end up saying, “next time!” Well … what if there IS no next time?

THE LOOP

So the loop goes like this: opportunity > no thanks > self-blame or other-person-blame > next time! > opportunity > no thanks > self-blame or other-person-blame > next time….

Aren’t you tired of that? Wouldn’t you like to end that loop of internal destruction?

It’s pretty simple, really, and I’d like to show you how I do it.

SHY ME into WOW ME

See, you may not know this, but many years ago I was so shy I could barely look people in the eye, much less think clearly enough to form coherent sentences or even speak them loud enough to hear.

If I had an appointment with someone, every moment of my day right up to the meeting was filled with anxiety, fretting and worry – I couldn’t even think about doing anything else.

But I found a way to reverse that 180 degrees, and now people are more likely to tell me I’m full of energy, enthusiasm and inspiration.

I talk to everyone. I even have a radio show! If you’d told me even 10 years ago that I’d be a radio show host, I’d have laughed and declared that that would be impossible, who did you think you were trying to kid?

DECIDE

heart-loveSo tell me: which version of yourself would you prefer – the fearful one or the courageous, confident one?

Did you know? The root word for Courage is Couer – which means Heart! Your courage comes from your lion-heart!

Want to know how to reverse your shyness, worry and lack of confidence?

All the way from little things like invitations to lunch, to big things that would be of great benefit to you, like being able to sell your work or pursue your passion! Here’s your chance to take this thing by the horns and turn it around.

I put together a teleseminar just for you, so you could create clarity, banish lack of courage and transform fear into confidence – forever.

I Posted, “I Need A Hug!” and Got over 100!

hugDo you ask for what you want … and get it?

Last week I had a pretty big upset about something. It ran very deep, and made me feel like I wanted to just pop out of my skin and run away and hide.

But I’m one of the lucky ones! I have a lovely following on facebook – full of supporters, friends, clients and people who have like-ideas. So, I thought, why not ask for a hug?

So I did – and was bowled over by the huge amount of immediate, overwhelmingly loving replies – including a picture of flowers, a video of a sweet manatee, and more.

“THOU MUST SUFFER ALONE!” >>> NOT!!!

Only a few years ago, I’d have thought it was better to suffer in silence. You know what I mean – the “I don’t want to burden you with my bummer” kind of thinking.

Truth is, people really DO want to support you, and even if you’re down, they’re most likely not, and are happy to send you good wishes, huggies and kissies and all kinds of uplifting thoughts.

Don’t bother with the ones who don’t really listen but want to tell you what to do, give you cheery, inappropriate bolstering or want you to brush it off. They only hurt you more.

Even if you only know one person who can listen to you and be with you without judgement when you’re in that dark place, that person is worth more than a gold mine. Call that person and say, “hey, I’m in a dark place, can you help me remember who I really am?” They will.

Try it some time when you just can’t lift one more finger to help yourself. You’ll be amazed at the response you get.

FROM SELF-PITY to GRATITIUDE in 45 minutes

I was sooooo very grateful – those posts on facebook really helped me turn my downward spiral into a newer, greater sense of self-respect, self-acceptance, love and peace.

As a coach, it’s what I do all day every day – helping people find the ways that are unique to them that they can use to make their lives better. So it was such a gift to receive all that love.

If you were one of the people who shared your love with me that day,  bless you and thank you!

Remember, I love you!

Aloha –
Angela

Wish You Had Someone Who’d Listen to You & Give You Insights, Strategies & Action Steps?

love2That’s me. I’ll absolutely do that for you! I’m really good at it, because I really care about you and want you to succeed – whatever that personally means for you.

And I have this amazing (even to me!) knack of being able to see how you can do things better in your life, emotions, thinking and business so your entire life shifts up notch after notch as we work together.

WHAT EVEN A TINY 15 MINUTES CAN DO

I had a talk with someone a few years ago that lasted fifteen fast minutes.

In those few minutes, she gave me information that completely transformed my ability to coach effectively, and to make my coaching available at levels I’d never even considered before. Fifteen little minutes!

Imagine spending focused time with someone who cares about you, holds the space of success for you, and who can give you insights and ways to do things better that you’d never have thought of or seen before.

STOP HERE for A SECOND….

Stop a second and think for a moment. Ask yourself, “how would it be if things really changed for me?”How would it be? Can you see it?

Whether you are an author, coach, speaker, or any other kind of entrepreneur, you know as well as I do that if you don’t see your success, it won’t happen. And – you can see it all day long, but if you don’t get out of the rut you’re in right now and take action, that vision will die on the vine, unfullfilled.

What is it you want?

  • To have more fun?
  • Spend more time with friends & family?
  • Help create peace on the planet?
  • To have more impact?
  • Make a bigger difference?
  • Help more people?
  • Make more money?

I know from first-hand experience that getting an outside viewpoint can shift EVERYthing for you. How long do you want to stay where you are now? How acceptable is that to you?

Your life and business CAN radically change…or stay the same. It’s up to you.

TAKE ACTION NOW!

Get coaching with me, one-on-one, for only $125! I invite you to put aside your doubts and take action now.

Register for at least one 1-to-1 session with me so you can get past your risk-taking fear, and step into whatever new level of success you desire – whether on a personal level, or business. At least get started.

Then if you want more, you can do that, If not – not. Besides, you get a savings of $450 – how can you lose?!?

I’m Back! Retiring Ain’t All It’s Cracked Up to Be!

paMany years ago, my dad, who was a sought-after executive recruiter in New York City, retired at the age of 65.

(Yup, he really did wear bow-ties – and tied them himself – none of those cheater clip on things!)

At first, he loved all that time on his hands! He spent hours in his long-neglected wood-working workshop; going sailing; walking around the neighborhood…bugging my mother….

After a few months, he realized he missed the hustle and bustle of the city, his friends in business, and the excitement of meeting new people and placing them in Just Right for Them employment positions.

So he went back to work. At 66.

And then he died. He was 67.

I always wondered what would have happened if he hadn’t retired. I think he’d still be here today – he would be 101 years old!

As you might know I’ve been out of coaching for about 8 months now, although I’ve stepped up and done a few teleclasses now and then (the one on money last week was amazing – thanks to everyone who came!). It just seemed like the right thing to do to refocus my attention on my artwork.

Well, you know how when things don’t Go Right you feel kind of numb inside? That’s how I knew something wasn’t aligned, something wasn’t working, something wasn’t Right. Then the income started falling – that’s always a pretty good indicator of Things aren’t Working!

we-do-itI realized I was missing all the people I usually speak with or teach or coach during my weeks.

I missed you! I got lonely, being all alone in the studio, or all alone at my desk as I posted my work on FB and other online portals!

So, I decided I’d put together some coaching sessions at really, really affordable fees, and post them so I could reconnect with you and get you going where you might feel like you need a boost.

I’ve got some cool teleclasses in the works, but I wanted to get you going with some 1 on 1s first. Just in case you feel stuck, or like you need a boost in time for the holidays, or maybe you’re eager to jump to a higher level of success and need just that one little Something you don’t know quite what it is but that a coach could help you find and explore!

And, I’ve got a series of tools and techniques that help people shift fast to share with you, too, at some point, that will really help you a lot if you’re a coach, speaker or teacher.

I invite you to go HERE
to see which Session Types fit for you!
IF YOU…

  • feel stuck, or
  • want to jump to a higher level of success, or
  • are struggling with unwelcome emotions thoughts and habits, or
  • want a half or a full-day Intensive where we master-plan your marketing map, or get your emotional upset handled, or discover and begin to create a new Dream for you….

… you’ll find something just right for you HERE.

1 on 1 Solo Sessions:
I created almost ridiculous enormous savings on 1 on 1s for you – at $125, they are $450 off my regular coaching fees!

1 on 1 Packages of 3:
And packs of 3 sessions for even greater savings.

Believe me, that won’t last long – get yours now while you can!

I may have thought I wanted to retire, too, but I’m choosing to stick around, not croak at 67. I’ll be 99 before I quit this planet, even if my dad’s over there waiting for me!

I look forward to meeting with you once again on the phone, working together in expanding your mind, expanding your business and personal successes! Woohoo!

“Bad Request” Message

Do You Know How to Use the Secret Mirror?

sm-playIf you have ever felt like you just didn’t have it in you to do something (like marketing your work!), and dithered along believing that you just couldn’t do it, or didn’t want to even try – for months! years! – here’s something that will help.

Recently I was turned on to Dr. Joe Vitale’s Secret Mirror technique. The technique itself has actually been around for many years, but he’s refined it. The way he does it is pretty neat, and gets shifts right away.

I want to turn you onto it, too! And he has a pretty amazing coaching program that is so inexpensive it’s almost a crime.

Time to stop it with those destructive beliefs that destroy your confidence and success!

Sage Magazine Interviews Angela Treat Lyon on Art and the Art of Healing

sage-article-092514

I’m so happy and pleased and honored to announce that I was interviewed for Sage Magazine about my Art, and the Art of Healing, and how EFT saved my life.

sage-cover-5hThe interview is out on the online ‘shelves’ now, and ready for you to enjoyCLICK HERE.

The interviewer was visiting in Hawaii all the way from Singapore, and called to see if he could interview me! Wow!

We met way last July, and I had no idea  which pix of mine they’d use, so I sent them a bunch – and I’m blown away that they used them all!

For the whole (beautiful) September issue of Sage Magazine, chock full of art go HERE.

Thank you, Sage Magazine!

I Love Low-Key Marketing!

sage magazine 2-pg spread-700

I’m not a hypester or brash self-promo kind of person, so pushing my work has always been hard for me. I mention my latest article HERE because, yes, of course I want you to go see my artwork and read the article…. AND, because it’s a great example of very low-key marketing.

Thai Nguyen, one of Sage Magazine’s writers, emailed me, and asked if he could interview me. I didn’t hardly have to lift a finger!

Since the article came out, through my posts on my Facebook profile and Art pages about the article, I have gotten almost 1000 likes and many wonderful comments and shares, as well as on twitter and my website. Great exposure, soft selling to the max!

How do you do it, too?

Find magazines that are in your niche. Start following them on twitter and Facebook, and make comments on their posts.

Write the editors and ask them what topics they need articles written on for future publications. Build a relationship with them that they will win from as well as you.

Not too long ago, Sage Magazine asked me if they could use one of my paintings (shown above) on an article they had been searching for an appropriate one for, but hadn’t found a suitable one yet.

It was about 6 months from the time I contacted Sage to be interviewed for the new article. Things move fast in the digital world – prepare to be surprised!

The Pleiadian Protocol to Reduce Excess Body Mass

sm-depression-2Have you ever had a long spell of feeling really great, and then, completely out of the blue, one day you wake up almost in panic, or extreme distress?

That’s what happened to me last week, with a very deeply felt personal worry.

Even tapping only went so far to get me any relief. Just allowing the smallest thought about this problem made my heart beat like crazy and my chest feel like I had chains around it that were getting tighter and tighter.

My hands were dripping sweat, and I had this unshakable conviction that if I started crying, I would never stop, ever.

I felt Hulk-sized pile-driver pressure behind my eyes, giving me a massive headache. Massive.

After a full morning of this, I was beside myself, because it was so horrid I didn’t see how I could shift it, much less ride it out.

Yes, I was tapping, doing my usual “something-amazing-is-happening-right-now” conscious thinking – and yet – under it all was this hideous pain.

Yes, I’m an experienced tapper and perspective-shifter and creative reality-shifter.

Rebecca Marina MessengerYes, even those of us who are, still get bowled over by life’s challenges! This is part of the shamanic process we all go through to let go of what isn’t working, and creating something new out of it.

Only the letting go part wasn’t happening for me.

I told my buddy Rebecca Marina Messenger about it, and she suggested I come to her class that she just happened to be teaching that afternoon.

Then she told me the name of it. Great name, I thought to myself…but…

WILL IT WORK FOR ME?

I wasn’t sure it would, since the topic of the class wasn’t on what was specifically going on for me.

But I really trust Rebecca, so I attended anyway. And, sure enough,  within the first five minutes of the first process she took us through, I had the most powerful, most profound shift I’ve ever had. Ever.

(Impatient? CLICK HERE to get it – and use the word ME in the coupon box for a savings!)

Within a fraction of a second of doing the last part of the very first exercise, ALL of the constriction in my chest, the too-fast beating heart, the sweaty palms, the worry and incessant repeating self-talk in my mind, and the intense pressure behind my eyes and massive headache were gone.

Snap-your-finers gone!

Totally. How many words can I use to convey the miracle of it? Utterly, completely, magically gone.

And there had been no tapping, no going over stories, what was wrong with me, no talk about parents, feelings or past events – just *poof* – the entire thing was gone.

It was a good thing I was lying down, because the short, fast process was so powerful that I literally zonked out from it – my conscious mind was suddenly presented with something so completely out of the norm that it couldn’t make it fit within the usual same-old-same-old mindset it was used to holding, and it went into wait-a-minute-while-I-adjust-here-folks mode.

NOW I CAN TELL YOU….

Are You Exhausted, Brain-Fogged, Procrastinating? Here’s what to DO!

During the weeks I was flat with pneumonia recently, I had a hard time putting one thought after the next. I didn’t even feel like reading. Now that’s not me at all – you KNOW how much I love to read!

Rebecca Marina MessengerI’m used to having a razor-sharp mind, and I hated feeling so muzzy and non-functional.

Tapping helped, but didn’t quite get at the core of what was going on, and remained frustratingly foggy.

My good friend Rebecca Marina Messenger told me about her teleclass in which I could clear up my head.

She maintained that if your hypothalamus was ‘shrouded’ by any one or all of 3 triggers, you just couldn’t think straight or have the energy you need to get through each day.

She said that by clearing your “Shrouded Hypothalamus,” you could “fix your metabolism, get charged pp, and have brilliant ideas, feel wonderful…”

REALLY.

I was excited – and frankly, a smidge skeptical.

No More Living Life Like a Zombie!

Pondering....How do you go about announcing that you feel like you’re coming back from the land of the almost-dead?

Well. Maybe that says it!

See, five years ago, I had two near-fatal internal organ failures. I got into surgery by the skin of my teeth, and somehow I am still here today to be grateful and tell about it.

TWO KEYS

There were two key things that happened that impacted my life heavily – one in the emergency ward and one after the surgery.

The first one was when the duty doc examined me and found what he assumed to be impossible blood pressure readings. He sat back, shook his head and said, with a loud, very authoritative voice, “You should be dead – I don’t know how you aren’t!”

Something in my system grabbed that sentence and stashed it deep within my being. I didn’t even know the impact it had until this month.

The second one was after the surgery. I gained and gained and gained so much weight that I began to look like a stuffed elephant.

Not that I didn’t try to get my body back to balance again! I did the HCG diet and lost 20 pounds…and then regained 40. I kept trying, feeling more and more frustrated each time. I did this program, that diet, the other cleanse.

Nothing did it for me.

Now though, I have finally found something that really works, and doesn’t make me feel deprived, angry and irritable. I’ve been impatiently waiting to see if it really does work – and hold, because I wanted to show you specific results. And yes, it’s working, and holding! (link to see pix at end of this note)

BEFORE I STARTED….

During a session with my coach, I was asked if there was anything that I could think of that would get in the way of dropping the extra pounds on my body, and getting back into balance physically.

I was shocked and amazed to hear the voice of that emergency ward doctor speaking right in my ear – “You should be dead!”

A part of me had been living as if my life was a secret – if I ‘should’ be dead, someone might catch me! Someone might punish me! Someone might kill me to get me where I ‘should’ be – dead!

How can you live a successful, fulfilled life if part of you believes –
and lives through – junk like that?!?

You can’t! Need to do a little tapping, Angela?

Yup – and you can bet I did!

And don’tcha know it, within a day or two, I had a call from an old friend who introduced me to the metabolic reset program with which I have now (trumpets, please!) dropped 9 pounds and shrunk 9″ overall – so far.

Once you get through the deniers of life parts of you that hang out in your mind, you can start crankin’!

MY QUESTION FOR YOU

What’s lurking in your mind that needs to be handled so you can live a healthy, fulfilling life?

If you’ve been piling on extra poundage over the years and have done every last thing you could think of to drop it off, let me tell ya – it’s not your body you need to focus on first, it’s your mind.

Once you have one or two of the most powerful detractor-factors taken care of – pow! – the Universe moves to help you fill your desires. If one of them is regaining your strength and health, guess what – the methods to do that will appear!

That’s what’s happened for me. And now, even my neck is smaller by 2.25″ – I mean, who can exercise their neck? It’s just…happened.

Can you say, “Angela’s doing a Happy Dance”?

WANT A FREE SESSION WITH ME?

I’m looking for 5 people who want to clean out old stuff like I did.

If that’s you, let me know. You and I will meet on my conference line and do some tapping to resolve and handle the nay-sayers that keep you from being healthy and feeling fantastic.

I give you the session and record the session for you. You give me the OK to make the audio part of my free offerings to people who decide to use the metabolic reset program. (You can use an alias if you’d like.) That way you can help others who feel the same way you do right now.

Here’s how to find out if you are a candidate for a FREE 20 to 30-minute session with me.

Think about:
•   dropping extra pounds or
•   getting your health back after surgery or
•   getting relief from or eliminating the physical pain you’ve gotten so accustomed to or
•   not spending a fortune on doctors or pain pills anymore and
•   feeling energetic and strong like you haven’t in years….
•   (add your own desire __________________ )

What comes up in your mind?

Does it sound like this?

•   No way – I’ll never be able to look good again.
•   I’m afraid I’ll feel hungry and deprived.
•   I’m too old.
•   I’ve tried everything, it just will never go away.
•   I bet this program won’t handle (fill in with your specific health complaint(s) _______ ).
•   If I get slender, men/women will hit on me again and I’ll feel      really uncomfortable.
•   If I regain my strength I’ll have to start working harder again.
•   My spouse controls the money and s/he’ll just laugh and say, again, “don’t be silly, that last thing you tried didn’t work, why throw good money after bad?”
•   It’s just another thing that works for everyone else on the planet      but me.
•   Add yours _______________________

Anything like that hit your mind?

Yes? Let’s get it handled!

Contact me – just use the red contact form on the left side of this page. (Or, if you don’t see it, go to the Contact tab in the menu at the top of the page.)

Now – PAY ATTENTION! This is what to do:

1. Tell me one to three things you’d like to do – like, drop pounds, eliminate pain, transform your fear of ____ – whatever it is you want to do.

2. Tell me one thing that is standing in your way. Even if it’s, “I don’t know but I know now is the time.”

3. Fill in your contact info and hit send.

I will get back to you with a way to schedule your call with me. And then we will get together and rock and roll, baby!

DON’T WAIT! I don’t know how many will respond to this freebie!

What if you really could get your strength and health and fit body back?

What might that be like, eh? Reply now!

Who Do You Know Who Is Suffering Needlessly?

angerI bet you know at least one person who’s fighting anger, depression, irritability, nightmares and unwanted memories.

Maybe a vet, or a public service person from any arm of the military, police, coast guard or fire department.

Maybe someone who’s been abused, gone through any kind of shock or accident, or loss of a spouse or child.

Maybe a woman who’s been raped, hit, degraded or made to think little of herself.

Do they seem like they’re living a happy, contented life?

I didn’t think so.

“Oh, don’t worry about me….”

Many people who have gone through traumatic experiences might seem OK on the surface, saying, “Oh I”m alright, don’t bother with me!”

But I guarantee you they really, really suffer when they’re alone and no one’s watching.

And of course, some can’t hold the anger or hurt in – hitting their spouses, children or even friends, striking out from the unrelenting, ceaseless, intense pain inside them. Even though they hate themselves later for striking out. Even though they do their best not to.

No one should have to go through that. NO one.

DO Something!

computer-joyLately I’ve been cruising Facebook a bunch. Probably too much. I get hooked by the posts on what’s happening out there in the world.

Many of them are really upsetting to me – reports of heinous things people do to each other, and what we, human kind – or rather, humans-not-so-kind – are doing to the planet.

But what upsets me the most is the multitude of people who believe there is nothing they can do about anything.

They whine, bitch and complain, but never offer any viable solutions to anything. Nor do they make any attempt to sign petitions or support the movements already in place that are directed towards resolving what these people are moaning about.

Those upsetting things just keep on keeping on, with people sitting on their butts, watching, complaining or being critical, but doing nothing.

Complaining is great – but only if you do it enough to fully see and understand what it is you really, really do NOT want in the world or in your life.

But then it’s time to ask yourself, “what would I prefer, instead? And what is at least one step I can take towards creating what I prefer?”

We are very, very definitely not helpless.

Even such a small thing as signing an online petition is helpful. I used to scoff and laugh, thinking online petitions were a farce. But in the past couple of years I have seen some mighty victories achieved because thousands of people were concerned enough to put their names on petitons about issues they cared about.

How to Get Unstuck Easily and Quickly for Clear Mind and Energy

how dare you? what a nerve!Over the past few weeks, many of you have written me saying you feel stuck right now. Yes. It’s the change of seasons, and if you understand such things, it’s also Mercury retrograde. You’re not alone.

Dealing with being stuck has been a very common theme in my life. I used to want to end my life, before I found EFT. That’s been gone for 12 years now, and I don’t miss it it a whit, I can tell you!

Over the years when I did feel like exiting the planet just to be rid of the despair I felt, I developed a few tried and true ways to deal with stuckness.

I want to share with you a couple of my tiny but powerful exercises that I know will work for you, too. I’ve used them a lot this summer as I struggled with intermittant illness and fatigue, and what a blessing they have been!

Here’s what to do….

What to Do When You Feel Like, “I Just Can’t Decide, and It’s Making Me Feel Nuts!”

I-miss-youI received a note from someone today who said she felt torn between doing this and that and couldn’t make up her mind, and it was starting to make her feel crazy.

Can you relate? I sure can! It’s never a question of WHAT to do, it’s always a question of WHEN.

A few years ago in the hospital recovering from surgery, I felt pretty overwhelmed by pain and hallucinations from the drug they were giving me. I found that the only way out was to focus within. When I got out of the hospital, I decided to see how to use that little technique in regular daily life. And it works!

Each time you feel like you need to do this but your heart wants to do that…or…you better do this to make some money or do that to help your kids…or, fill in the blank  _____ just do this:

Quote of the Day: It’s Inside….

cave-woman-3

People go through their whole lives chasing everything in the material world, and they fail to discover the greatest treasure of all, which is within them.

Shut your eyes to the outside world. Direct your thoughts and words to the inside of you. The Master within you is the key to all the treasures in the world.

~ Rhonda Byrne, The Secret

Should Artists Have Just A Website, or Just a Facebook Page?

computer-joySomeone asked on FB if she should have a website or a FB biz page for her art. Someone said to set up a print site as well (FAA) as her site or FB.

This is what I answered:

I sell pretty steadily from FineArtAmerica.com (FAA). But really, you asked about whether to have a website, or to use FB instead.

From experience, I say do both. And actually, do all three!

1. Have a solid portfolio site you can send people to to see the best examples of your work (and sell originals).
2. Have your FAA site to sell prints of your best work, so you can leverage your originals (get your own FAA account here).
3. Have FB and build your ‘fan’ base so you can send them to yr site and FAA.

FB is eternally screwing with code and deleting stuff – if you depend on them to maintain your business connection, you’re just asking for trouble, because your FB pages are NOT yours – they are FB’s. And as such, if they decide to shut you down, or if they change algorithms or anything else, you can’t do a damn thing about it.

So create YOUR own solid foundation with an attractive portfolio site – with purchase functions if you can sell your work online – and use FB to connect with ppl.

How to Increase Your Confidence

InspirationIf you think you have too little money and too much overwhelm, you’ll probably want to read this!! (If you don’t experience that, maybe someone you know might, and this could help them!)

Lately, I’ve been meditating. A LOT.

Because I find that, when I connect, I see beauty, kindness, generosity and so much love my heart almost feels like it will burst sometimes.

When I connect, and suddenly each thing I used to see as ‘wrong with the world’ becomes another opportunity for me to say, “hey! We need to speak up and see that that changes!” and make some little post on FB or twitter. That, I have enough energy to accomplish.

I connect, and see that every last instant in my life is an opportunity for me to feel, radiate and shed love on myself, someone else, some thing or some place.

I’ve noticed many people saying, “I don’t have confidence in myself” or “I need more money,” and “I feel so overwhelmed!”

Thoughts create reality.

Q: If your thoughts really do create what you experience, and you think don’t have enough money … what thoughts could you start thinking that would create more money in your life?

A: Ditch the thoughts you’re so used to having run through your head, and create new ones. And think them. A Lot. Especially if and when the old crappy ones try to come back!

Q: If your thoughts create overwhelm, what thoughts could you start thinking that would relieve that overwhelm?

A. Replace the old ones and start rethinking your life into the way you want it to be. That’s called being a creator! You, the Artist of your life!

Women of Power Reclaimed from the Dusty Shelves of History

Women of Power Revealed SeriesRecently I’ve been posting a series on Facebook of specific women in history, and each post is accompanied by pertinent information about each woman.

The series has enjoyed a pretty resounding success, and I’m very pleased!

People have been thanking me for the series, saying it has been educational, inspiring and exciting. They are enjoying seeing how these women overcame cultural or family opposition, how they did incredible things and contributed to science and other disciplines in a big way.

And often they had to live their dreams hidden from sight, concealing their true sex, or undergoing tremendous physical exertion.

And they succeeded, even when they were run over or ignored by the men in their fields, and even completely forgotten within a short time after their deaths. Sometimes even obliterated from history by power-hungry sons.

So, I thought I’d create another series – short, downloadable ebooks, with more pictures and a longer, more in-depth write-up about each one. This is volume #1. I hope you enjoy reading it and appreciating who each woman in it was, and how cool the things they did were.

If you’d like a copy of the FREE first volume containing the first set of amazing women of old, just click HERE (opens in a new window). I’d sure appreciate it if you let me know if you like the series enough for more.

I’m considering charging for future volumes and donating a hefty part to some women’s organization – not sure which one(s) yet. What do you think?

How to Soften & Connect with the Divine w/o Becoming a Total Wimp

we-do-itIt’s time to soften. From what I see in the media, we’re about to lose the health of our entire planet. It’s time for the love of power and the warrior mindset in the power-seeking greed-saturated armed forces, police forces and government, to end.

I’m not sure where the rough, cruel, brutal and barbaric mentality started to be OK in the mainstream, but I’m really, really tired of it. Okra farms being raided by SWAT teams? Little old ladies who are handicapped being pulled out of their cars and thrown on the ground by big beefy cops? 14-year old girls arrested for FB posts? Come on, this is unreal and should NOT be a part of our every day reality!

If you look at movies that were made before the early 70s, you’d think they were slow-moving and vapid compared to the fast-moving, hard-hitting, power-action movies we’re so used to now. The acceptance of brutality has came about slowly and insidiously over the past 30+ years. TV, increasinlgy war-oriented movies and our war-obsessed media has increased our numbness to the harshness portrayed. Yes, man has been brutal down the ages. In war. Looting, raping, pillaging…after conquering places. But EVERY DAY? It’s wrong wrong wrong.

The ‘ethics’ of war changed radically in WWII when, all of a sudden, it was deemed OK to bomb civilians. Used to be only military installations. But now not only civilians are bombed, it’s done by mechanisms far away or completely hidden from the intended targets. No ‘intelligence’ about the hits at all. So what if it’s 40 village leaders sitting at peace talks! Kill ’em! So what if it’s a bunch of women and children, or a wedding, or a school – kill ’em! Send that stealth bomber in! It’s wrong wrong wrong. (These are all real things that have actually happened.)

Do you remember seeing anyone dressed up like storm troopers before seeing Star Wars? Now we see them all the time – in huge weapon-laden black outfits prepped to withstand all kinds of attack, on SWAT teams and sneak elite ninja anti-bad-guy raiders. In white as chemical warfare agents. We’re so used to seeing these guys we don’t think twice about it anymore. Big black helicopters hovering over your house? No biggie. The low hum of jets overhead at night from the local air base? No biggie. Our own gov spraying chemicals on us in the atmosphere? No biggie. It’s wrong wrong wrong.

In my maybe not-so-humble opinion, this warrior mentality has to stop being the be-all, end-all mindset for our times. I want to see all of us who care go within and start to soften the hard attitudes keeping us from connecting to our divine source. I figure that as long as I am in fear, anger, grief, rage, arrogance, I cannot connect – cannot even hear or see or feel the way in.

How to go in and soften? How to go in and soften and not become a complete wimp?

Sit still. Close your eyes. Listen. Allow the regular sounds of the world just be – they just ARE, and that’s OK. Let your attention to your thoughts and the world slip away. Listen deeper, for the hum of the earth, of life itself. It can sound like the deep thrum of the ocean. It can sound like the shushing of night insects, or even the shush of traffic. It can sound like the wind in the tress – even though there may not be any wind.

Listen to those deeper sounds. Allow them to take you to that place in your mind where you are way more than just a hunk of flesh. Where your awareness extends out light years.

Now look at your life and find the things you are truly grateful for. Simple things, like the way your dog rushes to welcomes you home or cuddles up to you when you’re sitting down. The look of innocence and delight in your child’s eyes. The way music moves you like nothing else can. The way your pillow feels when you hit the bed at night and the way your body can sink into your bed and be comfortable. I think of all the people lying on cold stone or dirt floors and am so grateful for this bit of comfort.

Allow the hum of the world to keep saturating your inner hearing. Allow it to continue as you go about your day. Allow it to help you remember that it’s not necessary to be cruel, brutal or barbaric in any of your dealings. Focus on how your heart feels.

Remember to be kind, generous, creative, bold and soft all at once. Be in love with love, rather than the love of power. Take a stand and speak up for the things you think count. DO love. That’s softening without becoming a wimp.
