Here is something on time, from
Brian..............
Coming back home this afternoon from a long walk I was thinking about the list of goals i have for this year. There are 3 kinds of goals.
1.some of them are there because "I should" do those things
2.some- because I am really desperate to change them (as i mentioned several months ago desperation is a positive thing -it gives us power and determination -T.Robbins) and though i know it will cost me so much work - hmmm - i love to work, so!! even the process only -will make me happy.
3.and there are goals that .. i just KNOW .. those things will happen... because i already have them in my bloodstream. and i want them bad enough! and i believe.
I know ! i know ! i am already there! doing this and that!! .. 3 days after a certain decision .. a "coincidence" knocked on my door!!! ... men, how in the world can i calm down!!!! :))
What is unbelievable.. i wanted to change something about me, my personality, and it just happened.. it was most likely happening for the past week.. but it feels magical. and the meditation i had yesterday (because i just sincerely hate to dance and drink and have so called 'fun' on new year's eve :) so i HAVE to stay at home on that night and meditation seems to be the most appropriate thing to do) ....the meditation gave me so much energy and ..assurance..? it was such a powerful experience.
of course there are no words that could describe it. or i just can't.
you simply cannot overestimate the importance of meditation
Here I have one more optimistic message from
Brian.
"This morning, I was reading Emmet Fox's essay on your "Heart's Desire." It says that you are put here on earth to do something wonderful with your life, something that only you can do.
You are unique in all the world. There never has been, and never will be another person just like you. You come into the world with "secret orders," with special talents and abilities that you can use to achieve any goal you really want.
So here is the big question: "What is your 'heart's' desire?"
What is it that you would like to do or be or have more than anything else in the world?
And here is the neat part. Whatever it is, if you are absolutely clear about it, and you really want it long enough and hard enough, you probably have the ability to achieve, or the ability to attract into your life the people, resources and ideas you need to make it a reality.
Your great responsibility, to yourself and the world, is to determine your heart's desire, and then commit yourself wholeheartedly to making it come true."

Thank you for sharing your experience, joanna. I'd love to explore meditation in a more meaningful way. I have only dabbled but have had very positive experiences. I would love to take a 10-day Vipassana meditation course. Maybe I should add that to my list of goals. Have you read Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill? An amazing book.
Michael, i did not, but N.Hill's name is mentioned often when i listen to different programs from nightingale conant. now i listen to ” the missing secret” joe vitale- i am already sick :) of the words”the secret” but someone MADE me listen to this. and you know.. it is worth it!I will look for the book at home- i think i saw it somewhere here…
meditation- i started alone when i was 16- with suzuki's book” zen mind beginners mind”, over the years i went thru dozens of techniques… but what is really important- never stop- after a longer break- i feel i can't live without it, if i really want to be “the best me”.
I love it, this and the new icon too!
And I believe with you that what you want, really want is yours already. And the universe has such a sense of humor because while our eyes are focused straight ahead toward our desire, when slightly off to the left in our peripheral vision is what we have always really wanted, we just needed to get quiet enough to feel it; there already. So be in love because even if it seems like no one is there on a Saturday night, you are.
