1 Great Tip to Make Your Day Better

The other day I was walking through the grocery store, Whole Foods to be exact (love Whole Foods). I was there on a detour during my day to treat myself, to pick up a little vegan chocolate pudding.

(Now I digress, this isn’t your average chocolate pudding this is world class chocolate pudding. And vegan. 2 points).

So anyways, I'm walking through the grocery store pudding in hand and already living ahead of myself tied to a matrix schedule mindset of where I need to be next.. and I just stop. I stop in the middle of the grocery store and just look around. I remind myself that I don’t need to run after anything, and that everything I need is already here. That everything I need is coming to me now in alignment with me greatest good.

Now, the point here isn’t that you don't necessarily need to drink my kool aid, or even change your whole life to this perspective if you don’t want to. But the point I am making here is, what happens if you do? And that you can.

So I’m standing in the middle of the grocery store and I look around, and as so often happens to me, which I always feel so blessed and grateful for, I see signs and signals from the universe that even though I am technically in the space on my own, that actually, I am not truly on my own.

There, across the room, staring at me on the wall is a message meant just for me in that moment, just like they always are. And I just start to laugh, as I do whenever I receive these kinds of messages...

Want to see what the message was? I took a picture..

It reads.. "Creating WEALTH, profits, & Growth".. Which is a reminder of exactly what it is we are doing here.

I mean come on, I can't make this stuff up.

Remember that no matter what you ‘think’ you are going through, that may not be exactly what you actually ‘are’ going through, and you are never alone. The universe has our backs.

So today, as much as any other day, take a moment today and just stop, let everything go, look around, and see what comes. This is how you let the magic in.

Have a great day.

My Journey

Many of you here might not yet know much about who I am, some of my life experiences, and why I may have anything of value to add to the conversation around the topics I'm exploring. Learn more about me in this post as I share who I am, and some of the wild ride I've been on thus far...

Being in the markets and working with entrepreneurs, of course the conversation often centers around money. In this post I share some of my philosophy and relationship with money, including different ways that in my experience, you may be able to earn more of it.

Improve Mental Health & Wellness

Improving our mental health can have profound and lasting impacts on our lives, the lives of those around us, and our communities. In Canada, it is estimated that 20% of Canadians experience problems with their mental health in any given year, and half of the population has faced some level of mental health issues by the time they turn 40. In this post I share tips and strategies that I've used over the years to improve my own mental health, which I feel may help you on your journey as well.
