While some people may love everything they do, in order to be able to maintain a strong level of happiness, they still need to periodically step back from the pattern they have set for themselves so that they can feel reinvigorated.  It will always lead to a level of energy infusion that has them feeling more pronounced in their objectives to remain balanced and content in all phases of life.  Perhaps taking a break from taking a break is also important.  While that is said in jest, there is never a wrong way to alter your routine to become healthier in the long run.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;For some people, this message may seem unnecessary.  For others, the vital information is more powerful than the average person can understand.  The simplicity of some ways of living that will always enhance spiritual empowerment is never difficult, but often overlooked.  It is even said that God rested on the seventh day of the Creation. While this is not meant as a platform to debate theology or any form of scientific or personal beliefs; religious or otherwise, that thought was stated to make a point.  Without taking a break from your everyday endeavors, even the simplest of tasks become bothersome.  Sometimes, it becomes downright difficult to pursue what comes second-nature because the monotony drives away the desires to accomplish anything.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;Who are you going to help if you cannot feel strong enough to bolster your own efforts to provide a daily balance in your own step?  Work becomes a place or thing of distaste and toil.  Shopping begins to be an annoyance.  Even something as simple as cooking a meal for yourself or family becomes an irking issue.  The universe is a bounty-filled place for all humans to live and be fulfilled.  The variation in what you have at your disposal is amazing and should always be expected to be that way.  That leaves the door open for you to rest up and re-evaluate what you want out of your life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;Why do your friends in spirit say that?  Our goal is only to help you to live your life feeling rejuvenated.  While there will be many human slants and definitions of what it means to take a break, from a spiritual perspective it is always meant to help you to vibrate and earn at a higher level.  By “earn” we mean that you should magnetize everything that your heart and mind wants, but it comes much more easily when you do so feeling refreshed.  Even your mental status can stand to be given some down time in order for it to be lifted to its fullest potential.  Embrace this power and gift.  It will help you to be a more productive soul, even when you may feel as though you cannot step back from what you are doing.  Remembering that your existence is guided and protected by a Source greater than yourself will always be useful!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY"&gt;Come join us on March 3&lt;sup&gt;rd&lt;/sup&gt; for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Keeping your thoughts concise will help you to keep your focus on what is truly important to you.  It makes your efforts to reach your goals much easier, as well as attaining them in a more timely manner.  By not allowing yourself to get bogged down with the unimportant aspects of life, your personal wants and needs will accelerate to levels of greatness and prominence.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;None of this is to say that we want you walking away from people the moment you disagree on something.  In fact, sometimes it is good to have friends who have diversified ideas.  Healthy, friendly debates are a part of the universe’s way to stay balanced and to have the highest good for all people to come to the surface.  If you begin to think that your way of thinking is the only correct way, sometimes you will find yourself living a very lonely life.  What we are trying to explain to you is that while you are cutting down on unnecessary worries, it does not mean you should be afraid to have contrarian viewpoints in your life.  All in all, it makes for a steadier and stronger physical experience when you put your ego aside.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Perhaps this message is all about ego.  It is about learning that to live humbly is better than to live with an arrogance that has other people shaking their heads.  Are you someone who does things impulsively, or with a force of confidence and open-minded approach?  There is a difference.  Impulsive acts generally do not allow for the inclusion of the other person’s feelings.  They are formed from a “I know best” basis, rather than from an unbiased and ongoing educational approach.  Make sure you are not losing good people or good friends because you are steadfast or too stubborn to look at another view.  What if that viewpoint is the simple aspect that we began talking about?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We try to be straightforward with all of our messages, but sometimes the best way to get something across to the greater masses is to word things differently.  This lesson is more about not dismissing good people because you may disagree with them on some point or philosophy.  As long as it is not truly damaging, step back and see if each of you can learn from each other instead of feeling opposed.  The gift of life to you can be the variation of thoughts from others that ultimately will make your life more simple and fulfilled! These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

It is often that fellow humans want to voice their thoughts about a subject that may not be what you want to hear, or they do it without your approval.  The fact is that the balance in life is that there should be a variation of ideas, but not of the variety that are so hurtful or limiting to you.  In addition, the opinions of those who want to enact changes on a larger scale can be even more devastating if commonsense and the concept of giving a hand up and not a handout are trampled over.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The best way to handle this is to breathe in a big gulp of spiritual patience.  It will help you not to overreact or be confrontational when that is the last thing you need to be.  Generally, those who are so quick to boast of their unwanted or unasked for comments are doing so out of a need to assuage their own egos.  You know better than that.  You are on a path of power, driven by the gears controlled by an Infinite Source of strength and knowledge.  As long as you stay true to the even-handed approach that abiding by spiritual principles and values gives you, then you will be far more successful in the long run.  Those who try to derail you are powerless!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;As the year marches forward, it is important for you to be equipped with factual knowledge.  In your personal life, as well as matters of earthly or global proportions, the statements of others must not rile you when the facts do not match.  If you stay above the fray of untruths, your life cannot be marred by anyone or anything they say.  Your reputation is built on a lifetime of consistency in actions and words.  This is why it is so vital for you to always be in an attitude and mindset that shows you living in union with the Golden Rule.  There is no simpler way to produce positive results than to abide by the virtues of that simple piece of moral guidance.  Move forth with confidence!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Look at all that surrounds you, especially when you think that things are going poorly.  There is a vibrancy in the air that comes from the renewal of ideas.  It can be seen in the winter plants that are trying to defy the odds of cold weather in the Northern part of the country and push through cold, hard ground.  There are migratory birds arriving with an eagerness to start their spring a little early.  You can see the love of the universe in almost all of the animal kingdom if you look for it.  It is visible in the plant kingdom too!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Why do we bring this up to you?  It is simply because most of God’s Creation does not have the natural protection of human intelligence to protect it.  What it has are imprinted levels of awareness that come from an inner knowing.  They are connected to the Creator on a soul level--and yes, animals and all living creatures do have an energy that can be considered a soul.  The biggest difference; aside from intelligence, is that these two kingdoms have no choice but to trust in their intuitiveness.  Humans have to learn to be trusting of it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When everything in life comes down to trust, doesn’t that mean that it should be given to those who are loving or love us the most?  It should not be difficult to do.  In fact, it should allow all people to invoke a special feeling of completion; of happiness that goes deep into the soul.  Each one of you are coveted, respected and protected.  With that knowledge, trusting your intuitive survival skills--the skills that allow you to see the joy in all of life--will make your trek through this incarnation much lighter and easier.  Think about how many ways you can light up the sky with the celebratory fireworks that someone else may inadvertently be depending on.  You are one of God’s army of angels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;As we said in the beginning of this message, life is amazing.  However, it becomes more enhanced when you realize how much of an improvement takes place when you simply learn to Let Go and Let God.  We (Spirit and the physical side of life) all want to see life as an astonishing gift. Why not begin the process of trusting the depth of wisdom that can come from a soul that has a base of energy that comes from a millennium ago?  Energy is undying, therefore the power of your thoughts will life on too.  Make them bright, cheerful and loving so that the universe can attract those same qualities for you.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

It can be frequently seen as a bad habit in many people, as they often dismiss their relevancy to society and those in their lives.  They have been jaded by the thought that if they do not do things perfectly that they have somehow failed.  The pressure put on you in this fast-paced world is almost ridiculous to where it was a century ago.  This is why your friends in spirit are always telling you to take your minds to a relaxed and meditative state.&amp;nbsp; In addition, you should take a little time to enjoy the love of another's company.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There is nothing egotistical in feeling good about who you are, as well as how important you are.  To be able to think in those terms allows you to expect to excel in more and more areas.  Your value automatically rises because you are not morphing yourself into a par or less valued person than you truly are.  As long as you are in sync with your Higher Self, nothing can make you feel inferior.  The power you are seeking in this physical lifetime is then elevated and not detracted from you.  All of your thoughts about yourself should feel enhanced by the imagery you get.  Anytime you are truly linked to a source that comes from a higher place, the messages you receive are only intended to improve you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Improving yourself does not mean you are less valuable as you currently are.  It only means that you know you aspire for more; that life is intended to give you more simply because you deserve it.  All good-hearted people are blessed by their actions.  All positive intentions in thought and deed will always be rewarded with more aspects in life that are meant to inflate your self-worth, as well as your material worth when appropriate.  Of course, if you tip the scales in your favor by asserting your respectful value, then all of the treasures you are seeking will come more quickly.  Life can be very fluid when you trust that it runs through the aura of angels.  Be an angel in your mind and the angels of the universe will stay in your aura to protect and serve you.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: purple;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

There will be days when life appears to be throwing one issue after another at you, but that is part of the human experience.  The way you handle any crisis, whether it is on a grand or small scale, is going to dictate the level of tranquility that surrounds you.  In turn, that will point your focus and unlimited possibilities of the mind in positive or negative ways.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you have been following any of our teachings, then you know that a quiet, thoughtful and self-loving mind is a good thing to have.  The key is to prevent yourself from being self-loathing.  It is far too easy to fall into bad habits when you do that.  Your ideas about everything are skewed negatively when you cannot get out of your own mental way.  However, when you are loving yourself enough to know that even the toughest of situations will pass, then any problem automatically diminishes.  You give nothing power that can hold you back, but add inner strength when you are abiding by a mentality that sways images of your ability and loving nature back and forth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is always better to meditate and visualize the tranquil nature that you would like to live by.  When you incorporate the strength of your ethereal-bodied guides and teachers, then you automatically give yourself and edge toward releasing toxic thoughts and increasing a pattern of opportunities that will bring the gifts of calmness into your life that you desire.  It enables you to be more in touch with the angelic side of your soul; the side that is derived from a place that knows only love and harmony.  Why would you want to avoid feeling that way?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Make this your time to renew your vows to the bonds of a spiritually driven journey.  Your life will be enhanced by the blessings that automatically flow to you.  The agitation and annoyance that you might ordinarily feel from a topic or a person will wash away without doing any harm.  Negativity cannot ever attach to those who allow themselves to always be vibrating at a higher, more positive revolution.  This is your day to journey on the road that is built for your personal discoveries!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

When the good ones come, you must be ready to pounce on them.  Sometimes, hesitation and procrastination will allow potentially great people and things to slip away.  When you recognize that there are no coincidences in life, you will find that these chances are not by chance, but given to you so that you can grow and prosper on many levels.  The universe is always looking out for you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In the coming weeks, try to notice the little things that happen.  Perhaps you may find a penny or dime in the street, or a bird might tap on your windowsill.  Someone could mention a job opening to someone else that you may have been aching for that will give you the chance to apply for it.  Maybe you will be casually invited to join someone at a gym, lunch or similar.  Even the glee of a child’s voice may lift your emotions up.  While these examples are all simple, the variety of connections that they are attached to from your angels are ways to awaken your soul.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your life is supposed to feel vibrant!  You are supposed to feel alive and awake; happy at the threshold of love.  Why would you procrastinate when you are given the gift of improvement?  Think about this.  Stalling your path forward is the same as telling the universal forces that you rather not make any improvements.  If you are honestly happy, then that is fine.  Most people are going to say they want more, and they should want more!  The Creation is a place of infinite abundance and one designed for all people to explore and absorb aspects that will have you growing well into your older years.  To stay still is to stay stagnant.  Grab the opportunities when they come to you so that you light up the flames to your greatness.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Living in a consistent state of giving will make the world a more gentle place.  Consider how wonderful it would be if everyday you could expect that someone was going to do something nice for you.  The universe is a generous Creation that is filled with unlimited ways to extend the hand of love and fellowship.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While it may make you feel special to be on the receiving end of someone’s attention, to be on the giving end is equally as awe-inspiring.  Those who have learned to give from their hearts are indeed people who feel the warmth of appreciation coming back to them.  It radiates from the recipients of their kindness, but even more so, the blessed waves of love can be felt in all areas of their lives.  This transmission comes from the Light Beings who are always trying to improve on each human beings existence.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The fastest way to be a part of their production is to begin by feeling endowed in all areas.  Perhaps another way to say that is for you to go through you day knowing that the difference you will make to someone by buying them a cup of coffee, holding a door open for them to go through first; warmly and comfortably giving a hug to someone in need, or sharing in your abundance is going to change a life in some small way.  Each act of kindness causes a rippling effect of goodwill and good feelings.  Like love, generosity can never be diminished the more you give it away!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We would hope that each one of you will take a moment out of your day to find a way to bring a smile to someone who could benefit from it.  Do not be afraid to touch the heart of a small child, or of an elderly or infirmed person.  Do not be afraid to be a difference-maker to your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors and so forth.  Let today be one where you are empowering yourself and sharing that gift with others too.  Certainly, the influence of angels in heaven will be warmly smiling at your angelic work on earth.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: lime; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

There are always bright opportunities for people to feel uplifted or buoyed by the numerous possibilities that life can bring to us.  Unfortunately, with the world being as fast paced as it is these days, many of these options are unnoticed, unfelt and unappreciated.  This does not mean you are doing anything wrong, but it does mean that you might be wise to step back every so often to absorb the quietness that can come from trying to “still” your thoughts and worries.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Every so often it will help you to sit back and close your eyes to the flurrying of life.  The proverbial rat race can detract from your harmonious path much more than you want it to.  The more you are able to quiet your mind, the easier it is for you to sense your Higher Self.  This enables you to seal off much of the cacophony that comes from people who are mostly interested in their own issues and needs.  What you will find is that the more you are able to be in harmony with the beauty of your soul, the easier it becomes to view life in a way that generates contentment and a loving energy.  Otherwise, you end up being one of the malcontents who grumble and complain about their existence and everything in it.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Let this be your world to shine in!  No one can or should ever be allowed to dismantle the blessings that are afforded all people.  Whether you are young or old, rich or poor, black, brown, white or any other skin tone, you are all given the same vast amount of love and support by a universe that is abundant.  All people are allowed to be at peace and successful.  Do not hesitate to find your path to make this your reality.  Attach your ideas; your actions and love to the wings of angels and loved ones, and you will find your daily journey to be less daunting.  Embrace the fact that the power of your oneness is strong enough to create a force that can change the world!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

It is very easy to fall into a form of laziness or general malaise when you begin to feel as though the weather is too repressive in hot or cold ways.  The same holds true for the patterns in your everyday routine.  When situations start to feel too ordinary or “stuck” the average human forgets that they have the key to change all of it.  Rev your inner engine and rejuvenate the aspects of your life that you are always intending to change.  You have the power to do this, and it can be done at any time of your choosing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What we are really determined to awaken your mind to is the simple joy of expanding your thoughts and actions to include your physical effort in the process of envisioning your goals.  While this may sound repetitive to some, the fact that it needs to be stated again is simply because we see that many of you are slipping back into the same habits that caused you to want to change to begin with.  Make this your day to shine!  Show the world that you are a force to reckon with!  Even better, show yourself that you will not tolerate any type of self-sabotage.  Be the leader of your own kingdom.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Whenever the human population is faced with the need to govern their own change, a resistance factor kicks up.  You then have to override it by knowing that you have the power built in to you to overcome any and all obstacles on the road to your success.  While life may seem unfair at times, it is still YOU who has the steering wheel.  Do not ever let anyone else make you feel inferior when it comes to what you can and will accomplish.  Take the wings of your angels and allow yourself to soar!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

The truth is that if your effort was honest, forthright and given with full sincerity, then even if you did not reach your ultimate goal you still should be grateful for the opportunity.  Many people look up to those who venture towards their milestones as someone to idolize.  Think about that as you move forward in your life.  Anytime you attempt to reach the pinnacle of success you are in essence letting the universe know that you are aware that you can do more.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This issue has to be spoken about in terms of how well you want to perceive your future as being.  Do you want to lay low and never try to challenge yourself?  Think about how boring that would be, not to mention how depressed it would leave you.  Life is about exploring the far reaches of your potential.  Granted, there are other people doing the same thing.  Honest competitiveness is will actually make you try harder. It pushes you to dare to reach new proportions of greatness, thereby pushing you beyond your comfort zone.  All attempts to improve or excel in life are excellent.  Never be afraid to seek to be extraordinary in all that you try to achieve; in who you are!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This is a time where your vitality must be resurrected.  In other words, it is helpful to realign the thoughts and importance of your dreams.  Ironically, there have been many times when failure has proven to be the springboard to reorganizing so that the end result of your future efforts will be even better.  You are the kings and queens of your own territory!  Prove your mettle by leading the way in positive, loving and undying ways.  The tone you set for yourself to abide by will inadvertently be the same catalyst used by others who are impacted by your words and deeds.  May any failure always be the precursor to greater and greater joys.  With love, these are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Would you try to ignore it, hide from it, or fall to pieces?  Would you be elated and embrace the changes as though you were given a mighty gift from the universe?  How about trying to use the shift in your life to learn from it and teach others how to either avoid it if is something bad, or to expound on it if the addition or subtraction in your life was an awesome event?  Have we confused any of you with these questions?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When you consider that your physical life is changing from the moment you were conceived, the thought that change is something to be fearful of such be greatly diminished.  It is when you automatically assume that all adjustments in your life are bad that you will find yourself struggling.  The reality is that most humans are working hard to improve everything about themselves all the time.  Whether they recognize it as the ability to change or not is unimportant.  Part of the key to personal success is to embrace the possibilities that are built in to your destiny.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your life was designed to expand and grow in a multitude of ways.  The key is for you to limit the damaging changes and exalt over the good ones.  You have to stop assuming that the mere mention that your life is going to be filled with adjustments is a bad thing.  It appears that the minds of society will always race to decipher subjects from a negative connotation first, then they look at the fact that other possibilities are awaiting them.  From the side of Light, we want you to be prepared to deal with all types of changes by realizing you are powerful and capable of overcoming the annoyances of the issues that slow or impede your progress to better and better things.  You are protected by a shield of animated love from a multitude of sources.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Make your days brightened by expecting the awesome power of your soul to generate great qualities.  They are bred into all energy beings and since your soul is a part of the greatest Source of that energy, that means you have plenty of strength to fulfill your destiny.  Make your life purposeful!  Do things that are positive and out of your comfort zone, otherwise you will never experience the joy of personal growth and inner harmony.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Often, the nuances of life can disrupt even the hardiest of people.  Even simple disruptions can create emotional triggers that can make your anxieties rise to uncomfortable levels.  They can frequently be caused by issues that stem from things that happened in the past; perhaps even as far back as early childhood.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When we say, “rewind your mind” it is as a reminder that you need to take a look at whether or not the cause of your stress is something worthy of it.  Most times, if you are honest in your assessment, you will see that much of it was self-created by fears that come from issues that are not currently relevant.  This is when you need to utilize your lessons from the other side.  Invoking patience, love and tolerance for others is good, but it must also be substantially given to yourself too.  If you are able to look in the reflecting pool of thoughts and treat yourself lovingly, it is also harder to let angst fill your heart and mind.  This includes your thoughts towards other people as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;As you live your life with fewer episodes of rancor towards other people, or learn to dismiss any anger more quickly, then you leave much more room on your palate for happier feelings.  Why not envision a path of inner harmony?  Why is it that as soon as the slightest thing goes awry that you allow your mind to race back to a situation that happened long ago instead of keeping focused on the here and now?  You are still in control of your destiny and the valuable point of view that will ruminate the making of better ideas and outcomes, or you could choose to ruin them by being impulsive and anchored in unhealthy memories of past history. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Now is your time to illuminate with greatness!  If your guides in the Light have unending confidence in your abilities and success capabilities, then why would you ever doubt yourself?  Be a believer in your incredible value to a world that needs people determined to spread the likeness of love, peace and contentment.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Come join us on March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Is your journey unfazed by the ups and downs that your physical experience can cause?  Are you able to release anxieties instead of having them mount to more intensity?  If you are truly on a path of pure and honest spirituality, you will still make mistakes.  No human is perfect, despite that there is a piece of the Creator’s perfect soul in each one.  Does it surprise you that we are saying even if you are on a good spiritual path that you will make mistakes?  You must understand that the power to move in the right direction comes with the awareness of flaws in humankind.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our point is to tell you that even with all of the angels, loved ones and other high level energy-bodied beings helping you, your life still needs to be constructed with challenges.  The less you look at them as obstacles, the faster you prosper on all levels.  In other words, when you look at a problem situation as being something that is going to make you stronger, or something that is giving you an opportunity to prove your emotional integrity, stability and the like, then you show the world that you embrace and trust your Higher Self.  From that, the privilege of living under the umbrella of protection of the Hierarchy comes naturally.  Your light shines so that more people will learn and follow your way of thinking.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The greatest religious and spiritual teachers in history had people laud their words.  This was not done because they boasted and bragged that their way was the best way, or demanded people abide by their rules.  Instead, they taught through their actions.  They lived the words they were speaking.  While no one was infallible, most pure God-minded avatars were certainly limited in the mistakes they made.  They overcame just as many roadblocks as the masses deal with, but they did so without complaint.  Through their meditations, the visage of optimistic lifestyles transfer into the steps they took as man or woman.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What steps are you taking to make yourself and the world around you proud?  Do you do things that make your fellow humans want to succeed or do you discourage them in your words or deeds?  Always make sure your strength is in the gift of love; the gift of blessings that are infinitely abundant for one and all.  May each one of you have a spiritual experience that lifts you up in body, mind and soul.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Step back from the problem and see if it really warrants your desire to get angry or to verbally assault anyone who may be causing some of your stress.  In most cases, with a look at the situation, from a more unbiased approach, you will find that the intolerance you might be feeling is over inflated.  This is a good way to avoid saying or doing things that may have you feeling regretful for in the future.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;People make mistakes.  It is a part of life.  If all things were perfect on the physical plain, then there would be no reason to learn anything.  Of course, the fact that you need to learn to navigate your way through a preponderance of physical and soul level lessons is what makes each individual life unique and intriguing.  The intrinsic value that can be born out of aggravating circumstances is amazing.  There is a thin line between learning from your frustrations or collapsing from the weight of them.  What is the difference between the two?  Your attitude!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you are going to crumble at the sign of any problem, large or small, then you are automatically setting yourself up for some form of agitated failure.  Your life is so much more valuable than that.  The lessons you learn are frequently going to be challenging, but with the right set of thinking, you will be successful.  If you were supposed to have all the answers to everything you would ever incur during your incarnation, then the Creator would have supplied each newborn with a manual attached to their umbilical cord.  Use any challenges as opportunities to explore new horizons; to learn more about yourself and what you are capable of achieving.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Lastly, we want you to know that if you do lose patience, your teachers of the Light will not.  They are always going to be available to you for you to lean on them.  Talk openly and casually to the other side.  Everyone hears you!  If you sit quietly, calmly and without agitated energy, you will hear them too.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Sometimes, it may not be something on the outside, but simply the way you are thinking.  Consider that your approach to everything in life has to measure up to the confidence and mental output that you design.  This means that each thought that you have is setting your outcome in motion.  Even when you have a fleeting thought of inferiority or failure, you are extending the tone of a letdown in what you perceive that you want.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is vital for you to be extraordinary in your efforts to be successful.  For each thing you want in life, clarity in your mind’s eye is one of the most important factors in making it your reality.  You are always capable of resetting your mood and your attitude!  More succinctly, if you find yourself not achieving the goals you set for yourself, instead of giving up, reset your pattern of thinking.  You are responsible for your personal success or demise.  The thin line between the two has more to do with reasonable thinking than it does with any influence in your scope of existence.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Some people may think they are immune to this message and still want to blame others for their misfortunes.  It is fair to say that there will be a percentage of failures that do come at the hands of someone else.  However, we would again have to go back to the fact that your actions are what put you in touch with those people.  There was some thought or concept that linked you to them.  Perhaps it was an over eagerness to make a quick profit on something, or you thought you would find an easier avenue to get the results you wanted in other areas of your life.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;All we want to do is remind you that life can be easy, as well as the avenues to success.  You need to visualize the end result as you want it at the conclusion, but not always with the speed you want it to happen.  This enables the universe to open more pathways in which you will receive the love, inspiration and motivation to lead yourself toward making the proper decisions.  In all that you do, a level of protection is always given to you.  These blessings must be felt freely by all parties involved on an equal basis so that when you are being the recipient of your dreams, it does not come at the expense of someone else.  Naturally, in the sense of competitions, this does not hold true, but for the intent of this message it has everything to do with living a successful life.  May each of you understand the depth of protection, love and foresight given to you so that you can have the clarity to mark your legacy with pride.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

The level of security that most humans get from this is amazing.  Most of the animal kingdom also enjoy this same feeling of security in their early and most vulnerable days.  We (Spirit) know that some of you are already questioning this message.  Our thoughts might surprise you a tad.  It would be to say that although most people refer to God as “He” the truth is that His soul is a perfectly divided energy of the male and female balance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our point is that when you truly infuse yourself into a path of principles that include the Creator, you are automatically placing yourself in the bosom of deep and loving protection.  This is an emotion and feeling we would love all people to have every moment of their life.  Unfortunately, we are also aware that you have to navigate your way around very negative experiences, most often caused by others who are also trying to explore their soul’s lessons on the physical side of the divide too.  It should come as amazing to you that the arms of the “Mother Creator” are always holding you tightly.  During your most difficult emotional times, as well as all other times of frustration,  it may help you to envision the radiant light of love encompassing you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The simplicity of love comes down to your belief in the protection afforded you by sources of love and energy that cannot always be visibly seen.  To live in a truly spiritually devoted sense also means that you have to trust that the gift of love we are trying to portray to you is steady and ever-present around you.  Knowing this should make it easier for you to engorge yourself with confidence and the “I can do it” attitude when it comes to your potential.  Spirit is always looking for you to find ways to learn how to expand your abilities and to push the walls out that restrict you.  Stepping beyond the boundaries of self-imposed limitations will come more fluidly when you feel the hug of God supporting you.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

People talk a good game, but they do not always take the necessary actions to make what they want come to fruition.  When you are looking for any type of enhancement in your life; any type of improvement from finances to health to romance and more, then the main cog in the machine to activate it is yourself.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You have the power to shift your life!  The preventing force is predominantly fear.  It is fear born out of the unknown; fear that can come from worrying about actually having success be a part of your life.  You must alter your thoughts if you catch yourself thinking about the “what ifs” when they are attached to fear or failure.  Your path is sturdier when you allow the brilliance of protection come through.  Remember, the universe is supportive.  That means that is has many variations of things, people and angels on both sides of the proverbial divide that can avail themselves to you at any point.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Let us share a different way of looking at things.  Suppose you saw a one hundred dollar bill taped to the wall with a note that simply said, “Take me.”  Would you take it, or would you become suspicious and think that there had to be some devious reason that someone left it there?  The fact is that most humans would go through the latter process because society has programmed so much skepticism and paranoia into your mind that you think that there had to be some sort of payback involved.  Now, what if we told you that money was left there by a philanthropist billionaire.  Would you be more willing to take it, or still have your reservations?  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our point is that regardless of how many opportunities that are presented to you, there might still be doubts that this planet could be so giving.  The reality is that when you are creating what you want by praying and visualizing it, you will not ever know in what way the universe will bring the gift to you.  All that stands between you and your achievements are your attitude and your physical actions.  In only a few moments of confidence, you can change the pattern of your life from ordinary to extraordinary!  Be the one who gives yourself the motivation, courage and strength to move yourself forward.

If we look at it from a large scale, then we are talking about humanity and the planet as a whole.  However, the greater picture does not take place unless individual lives are evolving on a constant basis.  This is more important than anything else, because it is your collective consciousness that will enhance or disrupt much of the success of the earth.  This is not shared to panic or confuse anyone, but to allow you to absorb the knowledge that you do make a difference to the universe, even if you do not feel as though you do.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This year of 2012 has been rumored to be the end of life as we know it.  That comes from people who seem to think they have everything figured out well ahead of actual events.  The effects are that, although their thinking is highly negative, they are procuring an opening for positive momentum to sweep away their worries.  This opening is the fact that the panic and paranoia is creating a wave of pure prayers and loving intentions.  Whenever there is energy of similar fashion linked together for a good cause, the vibrational forces of the earth shift for the better.  You end up influencing cosmic events without even realizing you are taking part in something that grand.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is noted from the powers of Nirvana that when the global community expects catastrophic events to occur that the energy they put forth is always born out of fear.  This perception actually helps to align a universe that does not want anyone to live in that state of mind.  However, the forces of the universe are not foolish enough to let the lessons of fear-mongers go to waste.  While many people want to invoke scripture and the etchings of a Mayan calendar as hard fact that danger and destruction is imminent, your loved ones and teachers of Light are infusing you with the confidence to pray for goodwill and peace to stabilize a shaky prediction.  No mere mortal is ever going to be perfect in their interpretation of messages from the other side, simply because the dynamics vary far too much from one ethereal body to those in a physical one.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We would advise you to continue to brace for changes, but to do so with the knowledge that your words and prayers will soften and evade the evil actions that many are expecting to bring the world to its conclusion.  Each one of you are coveted and loving members of society!  You are angels in your own right, put here on earth to be given a chance to extol the beautiful virtues of your soul.  When you do that with the backing of the Highest Angel, then the Creation will not ever end.  Keep in mind that all things are abundant in a universe that has no true beginning and no walled off conclusion.  You will always live limitlessly and with a fervent appreciation cast upon you for your loving efforts.  They come from the side of Light  and are always going to embrace you; love you and guide you towards&amp;nbsp;your optimum path and journey.  With thoughts of an ongoing, earthly resurrection, these are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

They influence your direction, but they also add to the motions of other people.  You must think about this when you are catching negative concepts and ideas spinning through your mind.  Think about the control you have just with the power of your brain.  It should fascinate you.  It should enthrall you to know that you have the ability to inspire your dreams and the dreams of others.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What are you going to do with this gift?  You can use it to build on love, compassion, hope, praise, charity, trust and many more positive gifts of life.  However, if you are not careful, the same strength you have to build and inspire good things can also consciously and subconsciously destroy the hopes and dreams of many humans.  It is up to you to enhance the world around you by capturing the joy that it holds for you in the art of optimistic manifestation.  Who is going to tell you that you cannot achieve something that you have not attempted, other than the wounded child that hides within, or the naysayer who want you to struggle so they can feel empowered?  Neither of them should be able to do that!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If we go back to where this message began, we could also say that your thoughts create physical substance.  Every manmade object or reshaping of the earth began with a concept in someone’s head.  Whether we are talking about emotions or physical actions, the processing that begins all of it starts with your attitude.  No great inventor ever set out to make something worse, nor motivated themselves by being excited about failing to do something.  The greatness of life is born out of a spark of love, hope and optimistic ideas.  Allow your journey to be filled with happiness; your thoughts with the gift of positive transparency.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

How many of you know someone who does this?  Have you done this yourself?  Have you ever expected yourself to fail at something before you ever tried to meet a specific goal or idea you had?  What about saying something will not happen without researching the validity or trying to take even a single step towards delivering on a positive outcome?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Consider this your notice to delete the verbal and mental assault that you might have when you think about enhancing some aspect of your life.  The teachers and guides that are around you, in the ethereal body, are always looking to encourage you to strive to do more.  They do not see failure ahead of effort.  They see effort and success for all people, then they see that growing into further opportunities.  It is the human mind that creates negative results beforehand.  It is the mental and emotional baggage that is often infused into the crevices of the mind that make this their reality.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The fear of other peoples hesitation and expectations of failure is often imparted into children at a young age.  It takes constant focus to recognize that these worries are baseless.  Until you literally try something new; try to reach accomplish a new feat or endeavor, it is impossible to have failed.  Why then, would you assume you cannot do something that has not occurred?  Your existence was given to you so that you could learn to step outside of your comfort zone.  It was designed for you to always be able to go stepping beyond the boundaries of restriction so that you could grow and see what your new possibilities have in store.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Use today as a tool for personal expansion.  This is not a time for you to lament about what you did not achieve, nor what you think you will not achieve.  It is a time for you to refocus on what is important to you and map out a vision of attack.  See it as a finished product and you will be awed by the upcoming results! With a trainload full of heavenly buddies to assist you, abundant joy, peace, love and success are waiting to be delivered to you.  May these blessings never waiver, but always multiply.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Being in a spiritual, meditative state, as well as living a life filled with principles that reflect the optimism that comes from truly abiding by the personality of a metaphysical life will also “inadvertently” cause you to be relaxed.  For many people, this is not fully understood, however, centuries of notes and transcriptions from intellectual and religious scholars tells of the importance of having a body, mind and soul balance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It comes very easy for those who immerse themselves in this practice.  When you take too much time analyzing every bit of minutiae that the physical realm can throw at you, it adds to your anxiety and levels of discomfort.  Subsequently, placing yourself in an attitude of tranquility helps to reduce the stress level.  In addition, you begin to find that the problems that might have plagued you previously seem to be less important or have answers arise quite easily.  Your life becomes filled with more joy and less burden.  This is what all people are striving for from the time of their birth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Success, on all levels, is not supposed to be a daunting task.  Having it come your way should not require intense drama, nor should it be something that introduces the crux of disappointment during the process to achieve it.  The repetitiveness of harmonizing in a peaceful mental state will gently place you in contented mode.  There is no better path to a fulfilled life than to have a mind that is relaxed; a body that is fueled with an eagerness to blend tranquility with effort.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;All you need to do is find a quiet place in which you can unwind and be adept at clearing your mind of all the physical life encumbrances that clog your pathway to happiness.  It can be at the edge of an ocean, the middle of an animal inhabited refuge, your bedroom, backyard or anywhere that you are capable of releasing the day’s grind for a few minutes.  While most people find the sounds of soft music or gentle guidance to help them to get to a place removed from their physical reality, it can also transpire from allowing your thoughts to be de-cluttered of whatever is immediate on your mental plate.  There is no best or worse time to do this, but consistency is helpful.  Begin your journey towards tension release today!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

In actuality, it is a misnomer.  All that it really means is that some humans came up with a creative way to say they are abiding by living in principles of spiritual beliefs; that they are more aware of the heightened energies that many people tend to dismiss.  It is another way of saying that they believe in God, but for some reason it seems less intimidating not to refer to Him by name.  Living “metaphysical” gives all people cover to do the right things and behave in ways that will enhance their lives.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;On some level, it allows the interconnection of all religions to fall under one banner.  It is a safe haven, and one that enables people to come together without fear of reprisal for being Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, and so forth.  What it also does is to open many avenues in which you will find pathways to peace, harmony, love and comfort in your life.  What can possibly be wrong with that?  Anytime you focus on something that has positive ramifications, you are setting a tone of optimism and happiness for people far beyond yourself.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While all of this may sound simplistic, it still takes a lot of practice to stay committed to this metaphysical philosophy.  It does cause some people to want to blame their shortcomings on some sort of cosmic reason that they did not achieve their goal.  In reality, a lack of effort on their part is more likely the substantial culprit.  The aspects of living your life with an approach to spiritual interactions is superb.  There can never be any harm done from it, unless of course you are using it to mask your own self-created problems.  Do not let your lack of execution become the fault of your spiritual journey.  It is simply not fair to do that to your guides and loved ones in the Light.  Nor is it fair to do that to yourself or anyone else who may be influenced by your words.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;To live metaphysically is to abide by the value that the Golden Rule has to offer.  It literally helps open new waves of transitions in your physical experience.  You are able to see things much more clearly and without the rancor that is frequently attached to the vast majority of society who tend not to want to incorporate a Higher Power into their belief system.  We would ask you what damage does it cause to do so?  What does it take away to have a firm belief that there is a Presence much stronger than any other force in the universe?  Live your life with the power of love wrapping you.  Envision the gift of abundance being placed at your feet.  Your life will become more joyous, and your trek through this incarnation will be greatly softened.  This is what happens when you become enlightened by a truly metaphysical path!

What we mean by this is simply that when you are consistently using creative visualizations as a way to produce positive results and you keep your need to personally influence into the mix, then the results will happen more quickly.  By repeating a clear and concise image of what you want several times a day, the time frame is quickened in having it unfold for you.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;However, if you are going to start to think that you “probably won’t get it” or that “I doubt it will happen,” then what you are really telling the universe is that you are not ready for what you think you want.  In addition, you must make sure the things you are seeking are not only for your higher good, but that they do not oppose the general love that emanates from abiding by the Golden Rule.  Your desires must be pure and positive, as well as realistic.  There will be times when certain people work feverishly on trying to induce pain or problems for others to make themselves feel better for having been hurt or deceived by them.  These instances are much better left for the Source of the universe to deal with.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your job is to focus on what is good, fair and loving.  You must not try to completely dictate the “how and when” angles of your imagery.  By being focused on the mental picture of the outcome, you are leaving more options open for the universe to mesh together all of the necessary actions that might be needed to present you with your wishes.  Keep in mind that part of the reason you do not have what you are seeking is that you did not have the proper way to get there.  If you did, the need to want something more would be non-existent.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There are two other aspects that we should cover.  The first is that if you are looking to change something on a larger scale; perhaps like something in the environment or things on a global level, then those items are fulfilled with collective imagery from like-minded people.  Anytime you link together energy that is positive, you are condensing and amassing an energy that is unstoppable.  With the universe being in balance, that means that you have to contend with people who are negative.  While it may seem to oppose our teachings, the same amount of energy put in by evil or well-intentioned folks will always be tipped towards those who have a positive agenda by the loving angels who are looking to assist you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Lastly, it is necessary to believe in yourself and incorporate the power of prayer.  This is another gift that will enhance your dreams.  It helps to let your mind become the formidable tool of creation that it is meant to be.  Praying gives you a direct link to the aforementioned angels and the Source of Love and Light.  Why would you deny yourself of that?

Some people do not realize that it is simply the way they project their thoughts that actually invite or reject problems.  When you consciously and subconsciously stay locked in on your money concerns, health burdens, relationship problems and so forth, you are signaling an attraction for those issues to continue.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We would suggest that you start to live your life properly.  The addition of all that  you wish for will come to you when you learn to subtract the consistent thoughts of fear and lack.  When you stop blaming your circumstances for where you are and instead start to pound out a new and revitalized plan to change what you are unhappy with; only then will you start to see the blessings of your desires come to fruition.  You empower yourself by envisioning your strengths and the things that will make you strong.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Those who persist in patterns that repeat gloomy results are usually the same people who speak the most about wanting something better.  It is the people who have what is seen as “better” who instinctually know that they should remain appreciative of what they have so that more continues to flow to them.  They “know” that more will come because they have already seen the evidence of their actions.  While this message may be met with resistance by the very people we are trying to help, it will change your thinking.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Even if that has been accomplished for one day, then you are a single step closer to the redemption and positive outcome you are looking for.  Practice the principles of self-empowerment by monitoring and deleting all unhealthy, limiting chatter.  You are covered in the essence of love and infinite abundance, but you have to magnetize these attributes as if you already own them.  May you feel the blessings of the universe shine on your heart and soul.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Memories carry forward; often for generations.  Your legacy is left behind, as a continuous reference to all the things you did for others.  This is something that you should be anticipating with each action you take during your life.  Will you want to be remembered for the goodwill you created, or will the memories and thoughts that others have of you be something less wonderful?  If you flow through your existence with the knowledge that you are always being watched, then it should help to keep you doing the correct things.  Your steps will all be taken with a bit of love attached to them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In addition to the physical connection to your life, your soul always carries forth too.  It is an undying; always loving energy.  You have been graced with a small piece of God’s soul, therefore you are part of a greater whole.  You are an eternal chip of the Creation!  Within your physical shell is the most powerful tool ever given to man or woman.  The omnipotent force of love and endearing blessings that are fused with your soul and self are a superb combination.  Like the mark you leave because of the way you processed your daily life, the lessons etched into your soul are just as powerful and never-ending.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;All we are sharing with you in this segment of your lessons is that you should know how broadly you are impacting the future.  You alone are the one who has command of the joyousness that you can cause others, as well as the pain if you choose to behave in ways that oppose the basic principles of the Golden Rule.  We (Spirit) are only looking to making you feel more capable in all of your efforts.  You are never alone, nor do you ever have to feel overrun by stress.  The union of your soul is such that help is always available in the form of other people, but even more because your angels are always going to avail themselves to you.  All that has to be done is for you to show the respect that is wanted from yourself to them!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

If you woke up each day to the same exact pattern, without ever having anything waiver, would you be happy in the long-term?  While some of you may be thinking “yes”, the majority of society recognizes that boredom would set in too quickly.  That is one of the most relevant things that your soul is aware of too!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There will always be instinctual desires to change aspects of your life.  While they may not be big, they do alter your pattern and add to the lessons of your existence.  All of the small changes in your routine will enable you to handle the larger ones when they come unexpectedly.  If you learn to simply flow with the sways that everyday living can bring, then you are going to be better prepared for happiness.  In fact, even the events that may seem like they are not supposed to cause happiness will be viewed with less intimidation.  Basically, your soul knows what it needs to do in order for it to grow and proper.  That is paramount to the success of all people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Why are we speaking about changes?  This year is one in which many prognosticators have already been preaching that the end of the world will be happening.  However, from the perch of the Creator, nothing like that is forecast.  While great changes will occur, they are intended to open a wave of new embracing of spirituality and Godly living.  In other words, citizens who generally deny or dismiss the existence of a Higher Authority will begin to question their own  prominence on the earth.  They will be praying more, meditating more, as well as to become more open-minded to the influence of their loved ones and angels.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In a sense, the world will be coming to an end as we know it, but Spirit’s intention is that it will end all of the bitterness and divisiveness that egocentric people try lead others into thinking is correct.  What we are asking of each one of you is for you to take a simple step forward in your communion with your Higher Self.  We want you to feel blessed, but we also want you to start to add to the positive missionary work being done by good people whose sole purpose is to empower each of you on an individual and collective basis.  May you understand that the steps to change are going to inflate the gift of love to humanity!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

When you start to recognize how prominent you are, then you will also come to realize that you are much more valuable to life and society.  Most of the time, people tend to put themselves down when they dismiss the way they are viewed from a soul level, as well the level of love they are bathed in from a higher perspective.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You must remember that your physical life is always entwined with the energy world.  Your value goes beyond what you see right in front of you.  Whenever you do something loving, you are notching one more reason to be lifted higher and higher.  Your reputation is become enhanced and more people are seeing you shine brightly.  That simply means that you are more relevant and seen in a way that brightens everyone’s heart and soul.  That makes you a greater and greater human; one who truly is making a difference, even when or if you do not feel like you are.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One of the main gifts to humanity is the life you have.  While this might sound a bit haughty to you, the reality is that each one of you make a massive difference in the lives of others.  Granted, for some of you that circle may be smaller, but for others it is vast and growing.  The spiritual reality is that it makes no difference at all.  Your attitude is what makes the difference!  You can choose to belittle yourself, or you can select the option that allows you to move forward with confidence and an urge to motivate and prod yourself to do more and more positive things in your life.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One of the greatest joys of being human is the fact that you are in control of your destiny by virtue of the thoughts you put out to the universe.  What will yours be going forward?  Are you going to be someone who gives up on themselves, or are you going to show the world that you are a great, loving human?  We hope you choose the latter because that would be the proper thing to do.

Life can be seen as extraordinary, even when lived by ordinary people.  There should never be a doubt about your capabilities on any level, or in any area that you want to excel in.  All you need to do is set a firm, confident goal and trust that the universe shall make it yours to have.  The key to receiving what you want is to expect that you deserve to have it, but to also trust that the endeavor is going to be seen as worthy by the universe.  In other words, when you set the tone of your goal, you must make sure that your mission is set within all spiritual principles.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There are many times when people are looking to have something happen that opposes the balance of love, respect and “do no harm to others” mentality that Spirit is always preaching.  The world has enough abundance in it that nobody needs to suffer at the expense of someone else’s success.  Similarly, when you are looking to achieve things on a deeply personal level, revenge should not be a part of the motivational force behind what you are looking for.  All good dreams have to have your highest purpose at their core.  You must view everything through a prism that has you asking if the way you are seeking to fulfill your journey would hurt you if it was being done by someone else.  To put that more clearly, if you put yourself in the shoes of everyone around you, does this personal endeavor feel hurtful?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The reason we bring this up is only because your resolutions and promises to yourself are met more easily when you keep your thoughts pure and loving.  In fact, the more you are able to stay in balance with them, the more easily you will find yourself meeting them.  This enables you to create a mission of sorts--to set the tone for other people to be guided by the beautiful, optimistic and uplifting way that you portrayed.  With that as your divining rod, failure is never an option.  This is an even stronger statement when you learn to openly incorporate the power and connection of your guides and angels into your belief system.  Go forth and prosper in all areas of your life!

I frequently wondered where my life was taking me when I was a child.  From my beginning, I knew I was different when compared amongst others in my clan.  My thoughts seemed to generate more quickly in virtually all areas of normal occurrences.  Everything that happened seemed to have an explanation or deeper meaning.  It made little difference if it was the witnessing of a predatory animal snatching its meal, or something as mundane as why people need to breathe.  The obvious, as well as the “secretive” aspects of earthly living always had the wheels in my brain turning, whether I wanted that or not.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;As I matured, I found myself more and more social, yet at the same time, looking for ample time to be secluded.  It was a juggling act of unimpressive proportions in my own mind.  Seclusion was my best friend and often felt like my biggest enemy.  While I had many friends, some of the biggest ones seemed to be the invisible variety--at least invisible in regard to anyone else’s ability to see them.  Living life with visions dancing in my head also created an awkward balance.  Streams of thoughts, where I wondered if I was simply crazy, combined with a deeper awareness that I knew I was anything but crazy, made my quest and thirst for knowledge even stronger.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;My journey through this life intrigued many people.   Some saw me as inspiring, while others viewed me as your basic lunatic.  There were many who shied away from me as if I were possessed by some demonic forces.  Those were the people who I loved to have a little fun with, simply because their ignorance of who I was earned them the right to be chided.  Yes, I know this was improper and far from what I have shared and taught in the past.  Keep in mind, I have human tendencies, just like each of you.  The ability to balance right from wrong is an ongoing lesson for myself, as it is for all people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I noticed that as my age advanced, so too did my industrious nature.  I wanted to build an empire of knowledge that could be equaled by no one else.  A competitive edge emerged more strongly with each day that passed, and exists in me even now.  As a teacher of spirituality, my desire is to make each of you feel filled with a base of knowledge that is unmatched when it comes to living and sharing the preponderance of love, compassion, generosity, hope, trust and faith that should be the basic principles of your behavior.  You should know that it is a God-given gift for all of us.  My connection to my friends is just as strong now as ever.  It is something that I pride myself on.  It is one of the largest driving forces in my life, just as it should be in yours.  Perhaps what I really want to ask you is if you are going to honor yourself enough to live your life the way I just mentioned.  Those character traits are never going to grow old, nor will they ever become the wrong way to do things.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I look forward to speaking and seeing more of you.  Some might be wondering how that is possible, but rest assured, even though I am living in the form of energy and not in a physical body, I can still reach you.  The value of what I am sharing today is that the magnification of your importance is elevated on a pure soul level.  If you learn and absorb that,&amp;nbsp;then you know that all spiritual beings are a present, as well as a presence in your journey on earth.  May the blessings from this body-less friend of yours continue to bring the love and invigoration you need to have a secure, perfect physical life!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

That question has no singular answer.  It is based upon each individual.  Some people are able to summon extra effort when others would have already been long finished and given up on their attempts to continue forward with whatever aspect of life that they are trying to accomplish.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is those who seem to find that extra strength; the internal combustion gear that we want all of you to look towards.  Sometimes, it is nothing more than simple determination to resolve an issue or meet a goal that motivates them.  However, there is a much stronger aspect to them that is frequently not spoken about.  It is their complete trust that they have the ability themselves, as well as the support from the universe to be dynamos.  This deep-seated trust cannot be taught in one lesson.  It is a lifestyle!  These are the human beings who do not shred the “how” the universe works, but have come to accept the knowledge that their positive thoughts and endeavors will be met more easily when they do not stray from it at the sign of the first setback.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The enormity of your mental belief system cannot be underscored enough.  It is the fuel that drives your life!  When you align it with the proper thought mechanisms, you become an unstoppable force of power.  That means that the areas of contention that might slow someone down or cause them the need to stop chasing their goals is only going to stimulate your ambition more.  This is the point that your spiritual guides and teachers would love to see each one of you grow and mature to.  Once reached, the only failure in your belief system is anything that you deem unworthy by choice.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Take a few minutes each day to imprint your desires with the universe.  Listen to the whispers that come from the hushed tones of your Inner Child.  They often are speaking in enhanced decibels about the best way for you to proceed with your life.  Allow love to be abundant; to be the excess that flows to and through you.  Let the world be blessed by your determination.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

We wonder why this is the case when it is these same people who are trying to elevate and lift you up; to support you when you are feeling down or disheartened.  Our point is that if you can be patient with someone you do not know, then it would be beneficial to carry that same respect for those who are more prominently in your life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Likewise, it is probably more important for you to give yourself the benefit of the doubt if you have made some form of mistake.  The human race is very good at quickly turning their ire inward when some aspect of what they were trying to do goes awry, but they will not be discourteous to someone who is greedy, bullies or intentionally treats them or others with disdain.  Our job--as your teachers of Light--is to remind you that having self-respect is one of the keys to living a life that will gain in passion, good health and prosperity.  It must begin with the immediate desisting of ridiculing yourself.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you abided by the virtues of life as seen through the eyes of the most spiritually enlightened, then you would comprehend the importance of your actions.  While you might think that self-flagellation is only harming yourself, you must rethink that premise.  If you are not living up to the principles that are acceptable for others to live by, how do you think the people around you are going to react to your efforts?  Everything you do reflects in the way you are absorbed by your family, friends and acquaintances.  In other words, if you are belittling yourself, that energy spills into everything else that you do.  Whether you realize it or not, it can be felt by anyone associated with you.  Think about the impact you want to have on society.  Treat yourself with love and fairness.  Expand those virtues and the energy you espouse will be much more appreciated by all.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

In the past, your friends in the light have often shared with you the need, not only work on visualizing and anticipating the changes you are craving, but to take bold steps towards shaking something up to make it happen.  The art of creative visualization; of mentally stimulating your mind’s eye to see the outcome that you want for yourself is extremely important.  However, you can do that from now until you are on the side of your angels, and not much will change if you do not take the responsibility to put even a modicum of effort into it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The secret to success is not only mentally and emotionally creating the opportunity for the universe to supply you with better things, but to also be a physical partner in making that occur.  We witness many good folks who are entrenched on very positive spiritual paths question why they are still struggling.  Our analysis is that they are giving total control of their life away to forces outside themselves.  You will always have to be in a bonded relationship with your guides, loved ones and angels if you want to receive the absolute, best outcome for your dreams to come true.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is important for you to think about the goals you set.  Whether they are resolutions for the New Year, or goals set at other points throughout the calendar, actual movement versus visualized movement will aid in you reaching success much more quickly.  It is the lessons of the soul that need to also be addressed here.  Some of what you may be seeking might not come easily because you have to etch a new lesson into the energy part of your existence.  All human beings are comprised of two equally important parts.  While there is the obvious physical one, there is also the “invisible” energy aspect that powers you from sources not always known or felt.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This is why we are pressing you to review what you want to make yourself happier.  Why would you take a stand against assisting your path to be easier?  If someone offered you the key to unlock a door that had all the riches you could ever want behind it, would you say “no thank you” and continue to find ways to futilely break into the vault?  Now is your time to make a difference!  Love yourself enough to push past the patterns that have held you captive; the patterns that have kept you from entering that magical place of rewards.  If you understand that a combination of mental imagery, physical actions and true faith and trust that a Higher Power will help you, then failure is never going to be an option.  Make today a better today for yourself!  It will reflect on others, thereby creating a wave of love and inspiration for all people to be motivated by.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

Certainly, you would be placing yourself in a position where failure and fear would not exist.  In fact, nothing would exist that was of a negative ilk.  Your life would shine with optimism, hope and glisten with pure faith that everything would always be great.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Instead, the average human tends to wallow in worry.  They focus on what is wrong in their life, as well as what they deem is missing.  It is this constant magnification of what they do not have that has them magnetizing exactly what they are looking to dispose of.  In other words, they are so drawn to viewing what they are missing that they are not seeing what they have.  Subsequently, the universe provides them with more options to keep lacking things, rather than to gain substantial rewards.  Thinking in terms of what you are missing instead of showing true gratitude for what you have is always going to be backwards.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When we (Spirit) tell you that the virtues of grace, God and gratitude are designed to elevate your life, it is not done so to tease you, but to teach you the right way to think.  As long as you are showing appreciation for the plethora of possibilities that seem that always seem to be available, then your guides and teacher in heaven will work even harder to bring them to you.  Happiness, love, prosperity and good health do not have to be abstract desires, but will become concrete parts of your personal foundation.  Live with gusto and confidence that the more appreciative you are of the blessings and love in your life, the more of it you will be given.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: lime; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

It should be something felt at all times.  Yet, society has a way of blocking out many of the reasons we should be feeling uplifted by throwing a variety of interference at all people.  These should not be assumed to be permanent or lifelong setbacks.  All obstacles are merely learning tools for the soul.  While that may be hard for the average person to comprehend, the value that you will get from them goes beyond anything that could ever be adequately expressed.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your time on earth is a learning tool for your soul!  It should not be looked at as something to be endured, but something to be grateful for.  Any challenge--both good and bad--are designed to help you grow as an individual.  The outcome of whether you use them to be grateful, angry, happy or sad all comes from within the walls of your thoughts.  If you understand that all things have value, it then becomes much easier for you to see the upside to things that are potentially negative.  When that is accomplished, then the rest of your life will seem to glide along, instead of feel like it is rutted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our effort is to get each of you to start realizing that you are not being picked on by life.  All people need to address problems.  It makes them stronger!  It makes those who are undaunted by the hurdles look like shining lights to others because they are teaching everyone how to stay in control and manage life more easily.  This is an even simpler process when the power of one is put to use with the power of those who have dealt with similar problems in the past.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The most important thing to remember about this is that those who have prevailed are also on the other side of the divide in the form of your loved ones and angels.  All things in life will always interconnect with the vibrant side of energy.  When you realize that staying positive is going to keep your own soul resonating at a higher revolution, then the pitfalls are fewer and less deep.  Keep in mind that as you stay devoted to the Higher Side, things in your physical life are always going to be made much easier for you.  It is part of the wheel of blessings that are always surrounding those who live according to the Golden Rule.  With a boost to your confidence, these are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

The answer is most likely, “yourself!”  Time after time, Spirit tries to remind each of you to abandon thoughts that ridicule everything you do wrong.  All people make mistakes.  It is a part of life.  Without making any errors, finding the path to success would seem worthless, as well as indistinguishable from everything else you are doing.  The only thing negative self-talk does is to prevent you from excelling at all of the things you are looking to accomplish.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Since this is still a new start to the calendar, it would be wise of you to learn to incorporate a “stop” system every time you recognize that you have just said or thought something that is unhealthy or limiting.  You will find that the more cognizant you try to be, the more you will catch these thoughts.  In fact, you may even feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of them in the beginning.  Like all things in life, it takes practice to hone the skills of self-empowerment.  It takes practice to delete the mental messages of failure.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Start seeing yourself in the same light that those in the Light see you--with a shine and ability that is unmatched by anyone.  Why is it easier for you to compliment and be patient with total strangers, but for the person you need to live with and live within, that tolerance is almost always absent?  Think about that!  You have to wake up with yourself no matter where you are!  Be kind to yourself!  This is your time to spark an exciting improvement in all facets of your existence.  Do not let other people or circumstances from the past be the blueprint for your positive potential.  Make sure you begin your day with a nice statement about who you are.  Close out your day with a compliment for anything good that you did, regardless of what it might have been.  It will have you gain the strength that has been lacking.  These thoughts come from The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red;"&gt;Save March 3rd for An Evening With Jim Fargiano.

For physical life convenience, we will defer to this New Year as one where you will be given an opportunity to punctuate what is important to you.  We are scarcely a week into it and most people have already fallen away from their goals and resolutions.&amp;nbsp; I would tell you that if those of us in spirit gave up that easily, then the planet would be upside down.  If there is one thing you can count on it is the dedication from all those connecting and living with the Great Spirit to be steady in our efforts to raise your vibration.  We want you to feel happy, loved and blessed.  We want you to have success without feeling like you have to fight for it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I thought I would make this a timely message.  Once you figure out that it is safe to be on a loving path of communion with the angels around you, then you will be able to utilize the angels amongst you.  The physical life has many.&amp;nbsp; A New Year makes many people nervous when they reflect on the old ones.  This is because most people, by nature, refuse to acknowledge what they have overcome or accumulated.  It seems that instead of trusting that the time-tested proof that living on a path that includes spiritual virtues is the quickest way towards the rewards you want,&amp;nbsp;they instead drift away or kick out the best aspects.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When you dismiss the power of the universe because you think you know what is best, you are going to be the first to complain that you are struggling and ignored.  As many times as you think you are being singled out and the only one who is suffering, you would be right.  That is because you are telling the universe this is what you would prefer for yourself.&amp;nbsp; In all areas of your life, improvements will only come when you decide that it is all proper and good to allow the power of your guardians and the strength of the universe's force to work with you.&amp;nbsp; If not, you may as well set the calendar back and restart to the times that already proved to be not as helpful or fulfilling as you wanted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Let this new time be your springboard to allow you to go stepping beyond the boundaries of self-limitations.&amp;nbsp; Be bold, brave and a confident warrior!&amp;nbsp; It will release the fears of past failures and unleash the torrent of possibilities that will lead to the successes you want.&amp;nbsp; These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;--------------------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Save March 3rd!

Times of mental illness, such as depression or a variety of other issues like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and so forth, are merely anomalies in the brains of the physical being, but they are not who that person is.  This is especially true from a soul level standpoint.  The reason we are bringing this topic up is that there are periods of time through the calendar year that often trigger symptoms of these problems to come to the surface more easily.  While this is not meant to be a psychological analysis; nor do we pretend that it should be seen that way, it is important for all people to pay closer attention to the needs of their family and friends who may be showing signs of struggling.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Consider this Spirit’s message to all of you to step up your level of concern for those who do struggle.  Sensory Perception Disorders, autism, depression, manic depressive behavior and more like it do not make the people who have to deal with it less then human.  From our viewpoint, it actually separates them--as well as their caregivers--apart from others because it simply means that this physical incarnation is one of numerous lessons and challenges for the soul to overcome.  We commend those who handle these situations with aplomb and love; not with ceaseless anger and frustration.  Naturally, the latter is expected because you are principally human beings first.  However, when you bond the power of angelic or spiritual approaches to understanding the problems you might be having, then fixing them becomes less daunting.  Dealing with your loved ones or anyone else who may be struggling with these issues is also made an easier task.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It comes as no surprise to us (Spirit) that many of you may be the ones who are feeling surprised by this topic.  It is one that is frequently misunderstood or unspoken.  Fear and a lack of understanding the way the mind works can seem to be a daunting and scary aspect of life.  You are equipped to overcome it in an avalanche of ways.  We would tell you to begin by acknowledging those who suffer from mental illness on all levels.  Even more, we want you to know that those who never turn their backs on the physical bodies who need help are seen as angelic in the eyes of your loved ones and the Creator.  Think about not feeling uncomfortable the next time you are faced with someone who has to conquer these problems in order to merely maintain a normal pace through life.  Consider how lucky you are that you do not have to struggle if you are in a healthy place.  Overall, be grateful for the qualities of the heart.  They can be seen in all people if you take the time to look.  Those special children who are afflicted with any of what we mentioned are one of the greatest attributes to a diverse earth.  With love, these are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Save March 3rd!

There are so many people who claim they want change in their lives, but they never bother to put any type of clarity or value on it.  Is the change you want nothing more than some sort of bluster to hear your own voice?  If not, then what platform are you going to use to get to where you want to go?  Where do you want your life to be week, a month or a year from now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Perhaps it would help you to set your goals by writing them down with a timeframe that is logical, but also takes you out of your current comfort zone.  “By this time next year I want to have or be…” and then fill in your desire.  There must be a pathway to get you there.  From the perception of a Higher Power, it is always going to be done more easily when you confidently acknowledge and embrace the strength you can amass from abiding by this Source.  All people are more easily guided or driven down the correct road to success when they allow the universe to envelop them.  Consider it the Creator’s way of giving you and encouraging hug.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is recognized that many people do not want to hear about angels or any beings of a higher nature.  However, fact is fact, and they do exist.  Instead of trying to disprove, ignore or abandon what you know, why not simply incorporate it into your physical efforts to make improvements?  It is far more practical to fuse together all the tools available to make yourself the person you want to be, as well as to have the things in your life that are going to make you happy, healthy and prosperous.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Life is all about simplicity--nothing more, and nothing less.  By keeping yourselves focused on maintaining a balance of this said simplicity, then all you will find is that the dream to chase your goals becomes a major achievement.  Instead of feeling as though the things you want are out of your league, you find that you are playing at a level higher than what you thought was previously out of reach.  Your potential is never limited by anything but the statements you program into your subconscious.  This time next year, we expect all people to have elevated themselves to an awareness that their success is only at the beginning stages of many steps towards a life of stardom.  Let the icons of love and support lift you up!

In spirit, it is something we celebrate for you at certain times.  While this does not mean we want you to struggle, what it does say to you is that your loved ones and “Light guardians” know that each failure puts you one step closer to the permanent success you are seeking.  While it is understood that any disruption is an inconvenience, it is also a fountain of wisdom that is growing that will help you to be revving yourselves towards to correct directions.  Perhaps it is a way to tell you that the projects you are working on now will be a better fit at a later time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This is the time of year when most people are still feeling rejuvenated by their recent commitment to some form of resolution list.  Within days, most of the written desires will become fodder for some of the most creative excuses as to why you or someone else really did not want to do that in the first place.  The reality is that at the first hint of failure, a signal is sent out from the subconscious that wants to fall back to the old, unreliable patterns that caused the malaise that wanted you to change to begin with.  Familiarity is often misleading when it is unhealthy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our point is that if you truly are looking to infuse new inspirational views into your attitude, then you have to change the pattern that you have been existing in.  Keep in mind that if nothing you do changes, nothing you receive will change either.  It is one of the most basic things that the earth offers as far as lessons.  Do not let any minor setbacks be the pivotal reason for you not to push forward with the quest for improvements.  Today, like all days, is your God-given gift to lead yourself down a path of refreshed and excited ideas that will enhance your life.  Become the person you envision!  Do not wait to see it in somebody else.  Let success be yours!  You have earned it simply by acknowledging that you want improvements.  Settling for sub par or mediocre results is not who you are.  Let your visions fly as high and free as the angels!--These are The Spoken Words of  Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We have gift certificates available at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.

Each person holds a part of something much larger; a piece of the universal code of life.  Love, abundance, good health and all other positive properties are not supposed to be foreign to anyone.  Those assets are there to be partaken in by everyone!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The background you grow up in is largely responsible for the initial belief patterns that guide you.  The problem with that is the fact that the majority of people do not take the time to eradicate the thoughts and memories of actions and activities that they know were unhealthy or incorrect.  Instead, they stay imbedded in the subconscious mind, creating havoc on your path towards the genuine happiness you deserve to have.  The inflame feelings of unworthiness, rather than to ignite the power of your soul that God and the universe present to you on a daily basis.  It is time to reawaken the King inside you!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;All days are good days to begin fresh.  Society has learned to focus on the New Year as the best time to carve resolutions and make promises to one’s self.  While it is worthwhile to do so, you must remember that the gift of life means that each and everyday of your existence holds the opportunity to begin to open the faucet to new beginnings.  No one can clamp off what you truly desire unless you allow them to do so.  This is your day to march with confidence!  Make this the time of your life where you feel that you can uncork the celebration of life!  Be guided by the love that can be felt in abundance when you look at the joys that newborns bring to all people, for they have yet to be imprinted with negativity.  All they know is the purity of love that is divinely given to all people upon birth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You have a choice to make.  You can either be frozen in fear or surf with the power of the ocean that will bring the might of all good things to you.  It is a new day; a time for you to cleanse your soul and be free of the toxic thoughts that have limited your success.  Be the peaceful warrior and approach your life with empowering concepts.  You can make this and all days a better today, but it must first start with your inner attitude.

Sadly, most people do not take the time to lay the proper groundwork to allow their goals to be met.  While it is frequently caused by a lack of patience in the amount of time it might take to accomplish what they want, there are two much larger culprits that are often overlooked.  We could tease you and leave our thoughts here so that you can try to figure it out, but in the spirit of giving and encouragement, it will be shared.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;First, you must find someone or several people to work as a bona fide source of support and redirection if you falter.  Not everyone is capable of being as self-disciplined as necessary to achieve the greatness they crave by doing so without the assistance of anyone else.  One of the treasures of living on the earth is that you have billions of people available to offer their guidance, nurturing and experiences.  Whether you are trying to lose weight, gain financial security or become a more self-confident being, someone has already done it who can steer you towards the path of least resistance.  It then becomes your responsibility to dictate whether or not you want to be bullheaded or openly embrace the ideas given to change you life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The second part that many humans overlook is the generally non visible connections they have to an avalanche of supportive souls.  Your guardians, loved ones and teachers in the Light are always looking to avail themselves to you.  Instead of getting down on yourself when you encounter your first setback or hurdle towards attaining the change you seek, talk openly to them.  Set the burden out to the universe to release the anxieties and provide the needed support for you to be the success your soul knows you are!  By releasing the tension, you are already taking a leap towards the realization of the actions and shifts you wanted take to improve.  In other words, you are not “owning” the negativity and hanging onto the old aspects that created the position you are uncomfortable with.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Let this be a time for you to start your new journey!  Be the power behind what needs to force the change you are looking for.  Let the Source be your friend, as well as your human friends be the source of your happiness.  Unifying with like-minded people and souls is the fastest way for you to obliterate the old, ingrained, useless ways of thinking and spearhead your attack on joy, harmony and happiness!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We have gift certificates available at: www.JimFargiano.com.

It is as pertinent today as it was then, and it will continue to be so in the future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I am going to take a few days away to re-charge.  Please have a Merry Christmas and&amp;nbsp;Happy Holidays!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------&lt;br /&gt;This day is the precursor to the anniversary of the birth of the Master Spirit, Jesus. Arguably, he is seen as one of the greatest spiritual icons who ever walked the earth. We are not here to prove, improve, or dissuade anyone’s ideas of who the most important one was. Instead, we are of the mind that all of you will simply revere and respect the passion of Christ and what he represented.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Living within the Laws of Spirituality will bring enlightenment and encouragement to you. Your lives will become easier; the infinite abundance that the universe has to yield to you will find its target more quickly. Health issues can be overcome through the divine belief that God and the Archangels transmit healing energies through their own avatars. War becomes non-existent when people recognize and honor that both Buddha and Jesus preached differently, but with the same message. While Jesus was about teaching love and respect, His counterpart often spoke of the power of the Light. Love and Light are one in the same when you entwine them with the respect of exactly what their iconic images were teaching. Living life by understanding there is a Higher Power guiding you is vital, however, life should not be run by virtue of giving up your physical world responsibilities. You still need to honor yourselves while you honor the Kingdom of Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With all that said, this season has been influenced by the gifts that Jesus represents to the people of all lands. He is blessed in the households of billionaires and paupers. He is known in the lands where He is not allowed to be spoken about without impunity coming to anyone who does. His teachings unite almost all religions with the basis for their spiritual interpretation. Tomorrow is the day where honor and appreciation is shown for Him. While it is great to see joy and gifts passed amongst friends and loved ones, the true meaning of Christmas should not be lost. Talk to Him. Let Him know that you appreciate the stress and pain that was endured by the life that was led in the physical sense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During whatever celebrations you have planned; invoke thoughts of the deeds, acts of kindness and acceptance of all people, regardless of their backgrounds. Two thousand years ago, you were given a gift. It came in the form of a man of modest means who had to be hidden to preserve His life. No longer should Jesus be hidden! As a sole person, whenever you act in a way that respects life, respects love, respects animals, plants and yourself, then you are quietly carrying on the missionary work that was vital in expressing the teachings of the Highest Master Spirit. Your soul will grow! You should realize that only a select few have to feel burdened by educating the masses. As an individual, all you have to do is to live by setting a blessed and positive life, without speaking one way and hypocritically acting another. Forgiveness is one of the cornerstones of living in happiness. Complacency and turning a blind eye towards those who are misguided and bludgeoning the concepts of Jesus’ aural glow will not lead to people being happy. We ask that you never give away your freedom under the guise of equality for all. It takes away your will to be motivated for more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy the next few days with the knowledge that the power of blessed energy is cascading upon you. Each person is seen with the same love as the one called God’s son. Yes, you do have the right to feel that important! These loving thoughts come from The Spoken Words of Spirit. May you all receive the gifts that you desire.&lt;br /&gt;---------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts at our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;.

Whenever you pray or ask for things, it is vital for you not to follow through with doubts about whether or not it will occur or that you are worthy of receiving the requests.  Of course you are!  That is, provided that what you are seeking is of an uplifting nature for yourself and retains a “do no harm to others” aspect.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many of you have been making a difference in the lives of a multitude of people for years.  Some of you are just learning how to do that, but it is something that grows easier with time.  “Giving” becomes second-nature, particularly when you are doing it from the heart.  That side of generosity does not have to be worked on because it is ingrained in your soul.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The only thing that changes it from person to person is the physical life experiences that they endure or enjoy.  While your guardian angels always have your best interests in mind, your guardians and influencers on the earth side of life may inadvertently have theirs in the forefront.  You need to learn to step around them, whether it is being intentionally or subconsciously done by them.  The control is always within yourselves!  The other outcome is that as you learn to elevate who you are, the people you end up affecting will also benefit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While the Christmas season is always one of intended joy, these words hold true throughout the year.  It is completely up to you to be the beacon of light, hope and success that you want for yourself.  Your family, friends and anyone else you come in contact with will be illuminated by the beauty of your soul.  May each of you walk in the shadow white light cast upon you by the Highest Angel.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts at our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;Also available are personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

When people take the time to look at all of their actions, as well as the actions of others through a prism of loving qualities, it is far easier to enjoy the earthly journey that everyone is on.  Allowing yourself to live in this state of mind enables you to have more tolerance and patience of everything in life.  The universe is then seen as a Creation of bounty and beauty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Think about how much better your energy is when you feel balanced and happy.  The drudgery of chores is not nearly as onerous, nor is the weight load of your emotions going to suppress you as much.  Loving behavior entitles you to be healthier on every level.  It creates a society that is happier and more broad-minded, thereby giving a boost in positive energy throughout the world.  This is something you should be thinking about in before you take any action or speak any words.  Let them be saturated with the qualities of love so that your own energy will be endeared by all.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Is there a better time than the present one to substantiate a life dedicated to existing via these principles?  Generally, the Christmas season ignites a passion and generosity in a larger group of the world than most other times of the year.  With many joyous and solemn remembrances of the Master Jesus, it spurs “regular” people into wanting to be a reflection of His ways and deeds.  How incredible this world would be if all people adopted that approach everyday, and not just for a few of them.  There would be no starvation, wars, anger, suppressed freedoms, illiteracy and more.  The physical planet would be more representative of the bounty and blessings that are felt in the state of Nirvana.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;May each one of you feel the gift of love that shines brightly to and through you.  Your angels will sing your praises.  They will trumpet your success and endow your future with as much love as you are capable of embracing.  Be joyful!

While they have no hard core evidence of that, they will fight tooth and nail to dishonor the Higher Power.  Fear and ignorance will have them stand behind other assertions that have not been proven.  In the Source, we know that all things are born.  Through Him, life is given to each of us in miraculous ways.  This time of year will always be a pivotal reminder of that.  We are reminded of it throughout the year with each miraculous birth of a newborn, where their cells are woven together in an Intelligent Design that nobody has been able to figure out yet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our message is for you to simply trust in your connection to your loved ones, guides, angels and teachers who are of the ethereal world.  They will provide the proof and support necessary to have a life that is filled with the nectar of your existence--love!  There is nothing else that you need to know.  Love is the driving force behind everything done on the physical world.  Without a modicum of love and concern for our own life, we would not care if we ate to survive, nor if anyone else did either.  It is the singular emotion that is bred into all living creatures; a true gift from God.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You are to do nothing but smile if someone tries to diminish your faith.  The silence of your thoughts will give them little if nothing to argue about.  You will walk away knowing that you are correct in your beliefs; that your protectors are still divinely with you.  The naysayer will walk away befuddled and still trying to figure out how to prove their own theories of how the world began.  Obviously, we are serious and tongue in cheek at the same time.  The gist of what we are trying to teach you is that you need to stay steadfast in your commitment to what makes you comfortable in your thoughts.  The others will always be searching for answers and looking for ways to find happiness.  It is too bad that they won’t allow themselves to have the power of faith so that they do not have to search outside their Inner Child.  With love, these are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

Joyful celebrations may be the last thing on their mind, as they could be struggling with the loss of employment, or coping with the recent loss of a loved one.  Perhaps something even more personal has hit them, such as the diagnosis of a serious illness for themselves or the break up of what they thought was a loving union.  The only thing that prods society to get through these events is by having the innate ability to feel hope deep into your core.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When it comes to goal-setting, our ideals are to tell you not to have hope, but to have expectations of success.  In the sense of everyday, emotional issues, it is different.  Hope can bring about the only encouragement possible to enable your mind to push past the darkness that may settle into your heart, mind and soul.  It allows you to see that life can still hold some marvelous opportunities once you overcome them.  Hope can be the most inspiring gift given to all people as it is completely open to individualistic interpretation and creation.  There is no right or wrong way to have hope, thereby making it something that will never pressure you, but it will always let you know that your future does not have to be bleak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;From a spiritual perspective, each human being is an inspiration of magnificent proportion.  They can collectively rally others to feel the vibrancy of great, new and loving beginnings.  Individually, they can be seen as icons of phenomenal accomplishments; where other people will see that the struggles they may be going through are not foreign.  Unifying under a banner of hope will create the most practical and gifted changes for the global society to be proud of.  Freedom has always been born out of someone’s thoughts that there has to be a more hopeful situation than what they may feel trapped in.  That holds true personally, as well as amongst countries who have had to endure dictatorial leadership.  History will always prove that inspired people had visions of hope and visions of compassion for all.  Do you have that?  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

This might sound simplistic, but the reality is that as you evolve, changes offer many new directions or re-direction in some cases.  We share this with you because the Supreme Energy wants your lives splashed with vibrancy.  You can color your world in happiness and paint a portrait of your life in the most beautiful way you can.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;With the advent of the New Year upon us, it is time for you to dust off the wounds and shake free of any misgivings.  Collectively, life will be resounding with the bells of singing angels and the love of your special, departed friends and family.  Look at them as your team of helpers.  They are excited to bring you to the path you want for yourself.  It is with their help that you can get a leg up on your healing of body, mind and soul.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Spirit will be felt more and more.  As long as you are open to the idea of positive affirmations, then life will be a resounding success.  I bring this message to you with the hope that the seasonal glee and rejuvenation will resonate throughout the year.  We are in a mode that enhances most people’s attitude towards seeing the love and happiness that is readily available.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If I speak for a bit about the Master Jesus, I would begin by telling you that just being in His aura was an awesome experience.  If you were fortunate enough to have shared in His physical incarnation, all you knew was that peace and love emanated from His very essence.  Jesus walked and spoke with confidence, and this was shared with anyone who wanted to partake in it.  No one was ever deemed unworthy of His time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Today, most people fail to realize the power of “oneness” with Spirit.  We watch and listen to your struggles and worries.  The truth is that we are responding to what you put forth to us.  It is often taught to you that the thoughts, deeds and actions you make and take are the blueprints for what will be returned to you by the universe.  It is up to each individual to make or create the path of aspects that they want.  This is why you should monitor what you do, and to ask yourself if you are living in the wake of energy that was left behind by Jesus and other Ascended Masters who have walked the earth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This is the season that most people celebrate by sharing gifts and company with one another.  It is an expected time to be optimistic and a time to openly show your love for the Master who is known as the Son of God.  We only wish that all people could be comfortable communicating their faith and love every day, not just some days.  In the New Year, it is your responsibility to address the issues that concern you.  It is also your responsibility to carve the path towards living life in a loving, vibrant way.  If anything should be contagious, let it be the world catching onto your actions, and then rewarding you with what you truly need in many multiples.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Let this season become the catalyst for all the love, charm and prosperity you desire.  Building on what has worked well for you, one day at a time, will cause momentum to be in your favor.  Living life in the aura of love and Light can only make your soul brighten.  Ask your angels what they need from you.  It is not always their responsibility to do everything for you.  Allowing your physical life and presence to be procured in the manner that Jesus tried to teach will lead to a deeper joy.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Finally, we share with you the vitality of your soul.  It is attached and connected to the greatest of powers.  As you enter the end of this calendar year and embark on the new one, it is pertinent for you to remain steadfast in your belief that the universe can provide for you.  We want all people to feel the zest and rejuvenation of stepping through your existence with confidence.  It comes from the guardians who help you; who ride on your shoulder.

Of course, there are others who will grumble and groan regardless of how splendid everything in their life is.  The only difference between the two groups is their attitude.  In the first category, you have people who will see something sweet in any and all situations.  They will find a way to embrace the lesson and grow with it, while those who are unhappy with the aspects of life that befall them are always trying to find the darkness before the dawn.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;How many times have you heard your guides in spirit talk and teach you about the need for your attitudes to be positive in order for your lives to feel fulfilled?  It is the only way for you to acknowledge a joyous core.  If you allow your thoughts to be predisposed to being happy beforehand, then nothing can be a disappointment.  The color of a room, or perhaps a new car, will not make a difference if you recognize that it is just a shell on the actual thing of prominence.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In a sense, people are the same.  Too many in society are quick to judge someone based on their skin color, height, weight, looks, eye or hair color, and so forth.  Think about how much more enlightened you may be if no predisposed negative opinions were had of your fellow citizens.  You may find that the limbless man was a hero in a war, or that someone who is disfigured&amp;nbsp;was not have supposed to survive to begin with.  When you look beyond the visceral imagery, and do not behave in colorblind ways, your life will undoubtedly be inflated with more potency.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Whether you are looking at something emotional, material, human or in any other form, when you assume a negative judgment, you will never be able to have the amazing gifts that they have to offer unfold for you.  Take time to get to know your surroundings and the people in it before you think something is no good.  Just because you might hear it from someone else, does not mean it is necessarily true.  Use your intelligence and the built-in capacity to see the good in all people and things before casting aspersions on them.  Let us take the time to envision the world and its inhabitants as being worthy of God’s time, thereby making all of it worthy of yours too.  Think about what we are trying to share with you.  Each one of you will become leaders of goodwill and teachers who light the torch of success for others when you abide by the principles set forth.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

Sorrow is a big concern at this time of year.  As many people struggle through the loss of family or friends for the first holiday season--or perhaps more--there will always be a sense of sadness.  It can frequently feel overwhelming to many who do not always have the right sources to share their grief.  Your requirement is to spread your love and compassion to them so that they do not feel absorbed in loneliness.  Your words and a simple hug can change a life!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In fact, you can change many lives if you choose to.  The average person does not realize how important they can be.  Most tend not to understand that their shear presence can be enough to alter someone else’s path.  You can help to reshape their lives, as well as your life, by focusing on your dreams.  While you may have to walk many miles to chase down the dream of your choice, if you stay focused on it the results will be worthwhile.  You can be a dream-maker for others too.  This is why we need you to be aware of seasonal emotions.  They should not be what prevents anyone from charging towards a path of pure love and happiness.  Let your ability to help raise someone’s spirits be one of the gifts you give to someone.  Let it be a gift to yourself too!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While the year may be winding down to an end, your efforts to secure more achievements should not.  One of the marvels of this universe is that it gives all living beings a chance to hit the restart button any time they choose to do so.  The Creation was developed to be very forgiving.  Do you live that way too?  Do you forgive the mistakes of others, or do you hold onto them as some sort of anguishing tool against them?  By enabling forgiveness to come from your heart and soul, you set the tone for a life of compassion and skillful access to your goals.  Be a leader in this area and show all concerned that you are and will always be someone who acknowledges the emotions and feelings of others.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

Often, people find themselves held back by too many created fears of the unknown.  It is within these restrictions that the human populace tends to renege on moving their path forward.  Instead, imagine what it must be like to be fearless in all of your endeavors!  Even if you fail, it would only be seen as a mild inconvenience to your reemphasized steps towards the rewards you are seeking.  Basically, for those who have deep trust in their Inner Voice, failure is non existent.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If all humans were able to invoke that type of thought pattern into their daily routine, the earth would be a less formidable place to live on.  Joy would replace anxiety; happiness would replace depression.  In each phase, your journey will be won.  You will be victorious in all of your endeavors, primarily because you are trusting the age-old wisdom of your soul.  Since that energy is a piece of God, then you are an omnipotent force of completion and power.  Nothing can get in your way of achieving your goals except for the thoughts you project.  How nice it would be for all people to awaken with the thought that their day was going to be one of shear pleasure, in every sense of the word.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A reminder is always needed to enable you to forge a path of many blessings for yourself.  If you take a step back in your approach, you can restart your journey any second of any day; all depending on your mindset.  All people should be giddy that they have that much power.  To walk away from it; to deny it, or to dismiss it is the best way to stay stuck where you do not want to be.  You should never let fear--conscious and subconscious--be the cause that refrains you from your God-given, anointed life of happiness.  Seek what you desire by expanding your concepts of what you are able to do.  Allow your potential for the future not to be limited by your thoughts of where you are presently.  Diminishment of your capacity to be the awe-inspiring being that you are does nobody any good.

How do you react if someone causes you harm, either emotionally or physically?  We ask these two basic questions for a reason.  If you tend to be impulsive, then your friends in spirit suggest to you that you take a few seconds to respond.  This will enable you to think about the reactions to your reaction.  In other words, it gives you time to answer the problem without infusing more agitation into the situation.  We find that many issues are more easily disposed of when both parties do not stoop to levels of immaturity and irrational thinking.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There will always be times in your life when the pressures of the season may get to be too tense for some.  That causes reactive attitudes that can often inflame a situation that would die out in a hurry.  Provided you are not in immediate harm, it is always going to be helpful if you digest what is occurring and reply in the appropriate ways of spiritual principles.  It does you no good to go toe to toe with someone who is not abiding by the virtues of “do no harm.”  Teach them; not by showing them up, but by showing them you are above their outrage.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The holiday season should represent a time of compassion, generosity and love.  Yet it is during this same timeframe that we frequently see people snap at one another.  They push and shove their way to try to get a basic toy, or perhaps just to beat someone out one spot in a line to pay for their purchases.  Try to change that pattern of selfishness by holding a door open, or simply greeting someone with a smile.  If all people tipped the scales towards the side of selflessness, then there would be no sniping or nastiness.  Be the amazing soul that you are and show the world how to live according to all the gracious “laws” that make you life a fascinating and fun thing to have.  It will always be better to be tempered in your remarks so that nothing can be misinterpreted.  All we ask is that you do your best and do not get bogged down in picayune actions.  Lovingly, these are the thoughts from The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;D&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;on’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

From a spiritual perspective, the truth of living under the precepts of what is best for all people is to find the harmony within both of those perspectives.  While it is good to be a leader--and many of you are--it is not always good to be so ingrained in making everyone around you feel that you are the perfect choice that you forget that the people you are looking to lead are just like you.  Being a true leader means that you enable everyone to feel like they are in the vanguard of opportunities that this world holds for all of its citizens.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Conversely, it is never a good idea to check your power at the proverbial door.  Why would you want to allow your rights and happiness to be controlled and manipulated by others?  You were born to be special!  You were born to be successful in as many phases of your life as you choose to be.  That means that you do not have to delineate from a life that has you absorbing the better graces of what it can hold.  You should always give yourself a chance to pursue your endeavors with the ideals that you can be in the forefront of the road to reach them.  Otherwise, you are having your personal happiness be dependent on the whims of others.  Embrace your inner power!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Perhaps it is best to say that your guides and teachers in spirit want only for all people to be living knowing they are more powerful than they may have been led to believe.  Some of you may be wondering why that was stated.  It is because, far too often, people are brought up in households or surroundings that engender failure or the fear of success, rather than the opposite.  Anyone who is truly on a peaceful, spiritual path will know that their world was created to give them infinite resources.  It was not designed for mediocrity, however, many people seem to settle for that as being their idea of triumph when compared to what they were taught.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This is a new dawn; a day in which you can attribute your direction to the ways, means and confidence of your thoughts.  Begin each one by understanding that all people are better served when encouraging and teaching each other how to improve their journey, while diminishing the useless mentoring that has you thinking you are incapable of achievements.  Take control of yourself by appointing your Inner Child as the leader who knows how to rise above all facets of failure.  All that is ever wanted for you is for you to be adorned with love and blessings that go deep into your souls.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

This might seem like an easy question, yet we see many people who will struggle to answer it.  The majority of society forget that they should be approaching their lives with as much invigoration as possible.  Instead, it appears that they push through their journey, merely trying to survive it.  Spirit always tries to get each one of you to do better than that.  We want you to thrive!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you cannot honor yourself enough to live revitalized in every action, then what you are doing is only trying to slide by.  You have been given the blessing of self-motivation.  It should be used to lean on and to learn from.  Regardless of your circumstances, your ability to tap into something that ignites some form of passion within you will always be available.  The only thing that prevents it is your personal attitude.  Your thoughts will dictate the effort needed or made for all aspects of your life.  Only you can diminish or expand your potential.  Tap into your strength and empower yourself!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Look at all the greatness that surrounds you.  Sometimes, the easiest way to feel motivated is by looking at and honoring the beautiful offerings from the universe.  It could come in the form of a precious newborn, or perhaps from the antics of a playful pet.  It may appear from someone who makes a seemingly miraculous recovery from an illness; a winning lottery or raffle ticket, an unexpected visit from someone you haven’t seen.  There are numerous possibilities that should help to fire up a passion for life.  Living it with the expectation of success and love will have you doing things that “gusto” are related to.  May each of you be blessed with a path of miracles.

Regardless of their circumstances, all individuals have a right to be unique.  The variation of personalities is what binds the world into a place of interest.  If not for different viewpoints, imagine how bland the earth would be.  No one should feel as though they need to follow a cookie cutter approach to living, but they should at least follow the keys to a successful, and perhaps simplistic life.  Your existence will always be easier when you are engulfed in the pathway of spiritual philosophies.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Will you benefit from abiding by these tenets?  Of course!  There can be no sense of failure when you are fully immersed and thrust into living joyously.  When your thoughts override your pain--no matter what may be causing them--and continue to be positive in their demeanor, then your life will still grow in a better direction.  When you turn inward to connect with your Higher Self, a shift to help you will almost always occur.  Blessings come more quickly and consistently when you include conscious thoughts that abide by values which align with the Golden Rule.  In addition, anytime you behave in accordance with concepts that enhance others, while also improving yourself, the universe has a way of expanding your happiness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In the end, all people have the right to believe in the Creator and themselves in what works best for them.  This is why you will have differing opinions throughout your household, neighborhood, States, or countries.  It enables everyone to have a comfortable way to experience their life, but that should not be done if these same beliefs are our to scorn or hurt anyone else.  Energy is always in balance, therefore you need to make sure you uphold your optimistic efforts.  Remember, the angels who guide you are the same ones who will chide you if they see you straying.  While punishment is not part of the universal code of ethics, it does have some prominence as a reminder in the best way to share your life.

Whether you want to excel in business, sports, relationships, spirituality or a myriad of other things, you need to find out as much as you can in order to be seen as a leader or the best at whatever it is.  Why would you not want to put the effort into something you value?  When you do, it serves only to enhance and bring the answers and results you desire.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What if your goal is wanting to increase your financial picture?  To you, does that mean hard money only, or does your monetary situation improve if someone offers you new clothes, food, shelter, a vehicle or assorted other items?  The bulk of society would zero in on the money and dismiss the rest.  The “rest” is money.  It has value.  It will cost you if it was not given, thereby leaving you with less cash after you pay for it.  In essence, you have passed on an opportunity to inflate your finances.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What we have tried to express to you is that there is value in everything.  Let us turn that phrase inward.  How much value do you place on yourself?  Are you looking at your worth as an asset or a hindrance to the happiness you want for yourself?  What about your value to other people?  It is vital that everyone remembers that they are influencing someone else.  Each person you meet in your life will have been given an impression of you, and it makes little difference if they remember it for a fleeting moment or a lifetime.  Your words, attitude or simple gestures will have left an imprint.  The key concern for them is if you left an impression to be one where they think you are making your best effort?  If you are in deed sharing some form of education with them, then you must leave them knowing that in that moment you were at the top of your game.  In other words, the only person who can dictate your level of expertise in love, manners, guidance, and encouragement is you.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Everyday is a new chance to make someone smile.  Make sure that you are living in a way that has you looking in the mirror with self-respect and the thoughts that you did everything you could to improve on even the smallest of levels.  Put aside the whining and complaining about what you do not have, and replace that with an air of appreciation for what things you have earned.  The universe is always waiting to supply you, but you must stop assuming that you are being forsaken or ignored.  By doing that, the “pathetic” angle of life resonates more clearly than the grace of success.  Nobody wants you to feel that way.  This is your day to turn it around; to turn your approach to one of consistent improvement.  Read, talk, share and love the options available for you.  They come with many blessings!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at: &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.JimFargiano.com&lt;/a&gt;, for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

What we really are trying to say is that all citizens of the earth should be setting the tone for their future.  If you have nothing set in your mind as far as what you would like to experience, then you are simply existing through this incarnation.  Your guardians want you to thrive, to excite and to feel motivated with all of the aspects that connect to happiness.  It is with that mindset that you will excel and be a stranger to negativity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your life on this planet does not need to be as complex as many people make it.  Simplicity is a great thing, provided you are leaving room for growth.  While we share our encouragement for all humans to live in a place where contentment rules supreme, we are not blind to the struggles that some may go through.  When you are touched by ignorance; by other people trying to disrupt your path, or even by basic mishaps, it is then up to you to shake it free.  If you automatically dwell on it, you are creating an attitude of acceptance and not rejecting it.  Keep in mind that your thoughts will ultimately create your reality.  This is why Spirit is always trying to reinforce the need for you to keep thinking in concepts that elevate you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While some people may think that the best time to set goals is at the end of the year, in order to embrace a New Year with gusto, we are here to tell you that this is untrue.  Every time of the year is the right time to reset, restart and retrigger your actions toward embracing a better time and future for yourself.  Be one of those who are going to teach others that it is alright to think in bigger and broader terms when it comes to being at peace with themselves.  It is ideal for everyone to believe they are worth much more than their current situation.  This holds true even for those who are doing well now.  The universe is a supportive vehicle for all beings.  This is why it is easier to evolve in positive ways than you may feel some days.

Mostly, it is comprised of material items, which is not only normal, but necessary if you are going to begin building a mental goal of the “toys” you would like to have in your life.  There is no harm in thinking of wealth on a variety of levels, because wealth ultimately can cause immense happiness for more than just one individual.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If we remove the material banner from the equation, it is fair to say that wanting good health, a peaceful existence, as well as a trusted union is a viable desire.  This union would represent a romantic partner, but can also be relevant in the sense of friends and family who are seeking to make you a better individual.  That is often done best by showing all people your humanitarian, patient side.  To display anger and envy throughout the year will not get you your Christmas dream list.  It would be far wiser to always err on the side of love, rather than to risk not getting what you want based on copious amounts of negativity that spirals from the lesser needed set of emotions of greed, anger, frustration, selfishness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Imagine wanting something simple for Christmas such as inner harmony.  This can be done by your own hand, as you have the ability to connect with your soul on a deeper level.  If having a life that exudes confidence and wealth of all kinds is viable, then the material aspects of your desires will come through automatically.  In essence, it allows you to have everyday feel special.  While this is not meant to dismiss the camaraderie and affection that should take place on the holidays, it does afford a differing perspective of what, why and how you would like your Christmas list to function.  It is always a good thing to be able to express yourself in ways that do change up the pattern around you.  Otherwise, there is no significance to any special calendar day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This year, why not put forth your requests as an early resolution?  It will put you ahead of schedule in trying to attain great things.  If a New Years expression of what you want is so easily done, perhaps you should be taking that attitude to visualize your enthusiasm for what you crave the week before.  Most people want to be happy.  It is one of the basic tenants of a physical journey.  Basically, your wish list should be comprised of whatever sparks your imagination; whatever sparks your heart and soul!  Expect that the angelic side of the divide will play the role of Santa; not only on Christmas, but each day of your path through your earthly life.

What is it that gives you the drive to move yourself forward, especially in the wake of hardships?  There is an internal energy that allows all people to be motivated to accomplish great things--things that they may not have ever dreamed that they could do.  Whether we are talking about excelling in school when you were told it would be too hard, or becoming a top-class athlete when you were told you were undersized or not strong enough to be any good, certain individuals summon an inner belief.  This belief comes at odds with the “failure mentality” that may make you feel life is stacked against you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Everything on the earth plain is interconnected with a power that is far greater than the mere mortal can see.  There is no wall that disconnects you from your loved ones or guardians of Light.  Why is it that you think some people have a knack for thriving in the face of adversity?  It is because they are trusting that formidable  Inner Voice that resonates from their soul!  All people have the capability to quiet their mind to see that the inclusion of God and Spirit does not have to come with an armband so that others know how you feel.  When your belief is real, it is also a personal connection.  Your actions and success are enough of a billboard for others to comprehend that the life force that motivates you is something that is beyond your personal deficiencies.  Motivation can be instilled in you from the confidence given to you by a source that cannot necessarily be seen.  The depth of your trust in your own ability to prove the naysayer wrong is what determines your outcome.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In addition, when you strive to be the best at whatever it is you are participating in, the outcome will always be enhanced.  Whether you are a butcher, teacher, student, author, nurse, mother and so forth, the unity of bonding your efforts with the Higher Power will have you excel in ways that are unimaginable.  If you set your tone to be spectacular, then all that you do afterward is to attempt to fulfill it.  The ironic thing is that you do not need to succeed in your first attempt, or even in your tenth.  When you press forth with courage, the motivation seems to find its way to you.  It is the perfect “catch twenty-two.”  Courage, belief in yourself, and the incorporation of the power of prayer are all responsible for your gifts.  Simply believe in that and you will begin to recognize noticeable improvements in all facets of your life.  Be comfortable with these thoughts, as they come from The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website at &lt;a href="http://www.jimfargiano.com/"&gt;www.jimfargiano.com&lt;/a&gt; for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.  &lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;We have gift certificates available for Christmas and Holiday gifts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Nook link for my book is:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano"&gt;http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-spoken-words-of-spirit-jim-fargiano/1009216923?ean=2940012894205&amp;amp;itm=1&amp;amp;usri=jim%2bfargiano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want to view other short quotes from Spirit, you can send a “friend request” to me on FaceBook.

Some people automatically jump to a negative conclusion that whoever it is that is heading in that direction is doing poorly.  It is natural, human nature to do such a thing.  Yet, why is it that if you hear someone is going downhill that you don’t assume that means that they reached their goals and are now coasting, much like a great skier who starts at the top of a mountain and swooshes down to the bottom?  Like all of life, perspective is everything.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You must take some time not to have a knee-jerk reaction to any words that might sound negative, but are not necessarily so.  Often, the people who struggle in life have a habit of assuming the worst in everything, until it is proved otherwise to them.  It is a tough way to go through life because everything is more difficult.  Assumptions almost always get in the way of reality, just as they cause the inability to make rational decisions in many cases.  We are asking you to make sure you keep your thoughts away from the magnetic pull that “going negative” can create.  It is far better to be positive on all counts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We might point out that the same reactions take place when you might hear that there are mountains to climb.  Why not expect that the mountains are bringing you to scenic beauty and the ability to see things from a higher, better perspective?  Staying on flat ground--symbolically speaking--will never get your mind and imagination to reach the pinnacle of happiness you deserve.  It is time for you to step beyond the boundaries of your habits and safe zone so that you can explore more and more about your life.  This is what your loved ones want as they watch you from the side of love and Light.  Embrace the power of your future success by not expecting that any vague set of words or someone’s unexpected actions are going to be something foreboding.  Embrace the love that shines upon you from the powers of heaven!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don’t forget to check out our website for personalized autographed books, the Escaping Boundaries meditation CD, inspirational magnets, coffee mugs and more.

Words of encouragement are great boosters to anyone who needs to be uplifted for any reason.  It makes no difference what your own mood is, nor if you have any confidence when it comes down to your view of who you are.  Words will create whatever intentions are attached to them; good or bad.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When the average human forgets that once their verbiage has been released from their brain and rolls off their tongue, they have stated something that has influence.  While there may be clear times when something is said in jest, most of the time your words will be taken to heart.  They are also taken into the subconscious, which is responsible for generating the magnets that are seeking the appropriate responses to those precise beliefs.  If you are given that knowledge, is there ever going to be a reason you would shy away from absorbing and sharing only the aspects of life that are praise-worthy?  Are you going to hide from empowering ideas, or will you embrace them with the same zest and tenderness of newfound love?  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Obviously, Spirit wants you to blaze a path of triumph and winning attitudes for all people.  However, if you forget that you are one of those people, then you are only doing yourself a complete disservice.  Let your minds be the engine that drives the rocket to success and abundance; to be the force that powers the world toward the beacon of light that can remedy any and all maladies.  The Creator gave you a tool that requires no electrical current to make it work.  He gave you infinite intelligence, spurred on by the words you feed into your heart, mind, soul and center of all things that are good.  Use your mind to create love, faith, hope, charity, gratitude and sincere compassion.  Your angels await these signals to impart their incredible energy to lift up all people!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: lime; font-size: x-large;"&gt;December 2nd&lt;/span&gt;, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

While there needs to be a realistic approach to everything that you can do, there also needs to be a an avenue that has you including the need for failure every so often.  Without experiencing it at some point, the combustion of cravings and a desire to improve would not be available.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Each person is their own best teacher, as well as their own worst enemy.  The way you handle yourself becomes the root cause and creation of the footprints you leave behind.  As long as you do not give up at the first sign of failure, then your life will be successful.  The human beings who go into an automatic retreat or withdrawal are the same people who end up complaining about life being unfair to them.  They verbalize and reinforce a path of disempowerment.  It is the opposite approach to the correct way of handling things.  The manner in which you should be thinking and behaving is to accept that you have to find a new and improved path to help better the outcome that you want.  You have the right to receive all good aspects and gifts, provided of course that they have positive intentions and are not meant to harm someone else.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One of the simplest ways to improve your outcome to various goals is to be blind to failure.  While this may sound too simplistic, our concept is that if you eradicate the thought of non-success, then the only room available is for success to flow to you.  It is paramount for you to begin laying the foundation and building blocks to a life that flows with great things.  Do so by meditating and precisely creating the positive, self-talk mantras that extol your abilities and right to be happy.  This will automatically set the tone for the universe and even yourself to move in the direction necessary to reap the rewards that you want.  Love yourself enough to do that.

No one but you can dictate the direction that your life goes in, thereby making you solely responsible for the route you take.  As you mature and grow, especially if you are on a spiritual path, you will find that the choices you initiate will impact all parts of your life.  Your decisions will influence everything from romance, health, wealth and so much more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What if you could rewind your life?  Would you redo anything, or all things?  What if parts of your journey were fun, but led to some negativity?  How about having things be very difficult, only to lead you to great wealth?  The point we are trying to make is that some of the worst things that you experience might lead to the best of everything, while lessons that come from seemingly easy options are going to repel the positive and saddle you with a much of what you do not want.  Getting each of you to understand this is one of the main objectives that Spirit has in mind when you are guided or nudged in directions that you may feel oppose what is best.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What most humans are unable to see for themselves is the long-term outcome of their lives.  While it might be fun to hoot and holler in joy at someone else’s expense when you are young, the outcome for you might very well end up being that you will repeatedly experience the same hurtful emotions.  That is as basic as we can make it.  When you are going through rough times, where you might feel overwhelmed with all the problems that are besieging you, sustaining your dignity and bright outlook will bring you back the sunshine of infinite abundance.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Consider that for all of your thoughts and actions, there will always be an equal or expanded reaction.  It is the nature of life; the nature of the universe.  The Law of Attraction works miracles, but it also pays back in the same negative manner if that is what you proceed with.  You have been given a right to be a stellar human being when your birth took place.  Since your loved ones and guides see you as a bright star, you should never let the luster erode by not living up to your potential.  Sometimes, the potential is simply to do the best you can to persevere through your journey with as little rancor as possible.  Focus your thoughts on this day to be one of appreciation of everything in life.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;December 2nd, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

However, the holiday season seems to afford most people the impetus to scan their personal views of what will make them happier.  Ironically, it is the same thing that the world needs: seeing the value in all things.  When you are able to assess your prominence to the numerous people who are impacted by your mere existence, then it becomes more important for you to learn that your self-worth can reflect in good and bad ways.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Life is nothing more than grouping together days, weeks, months and years to learn how to be compassionate.  It is an opportunity for almost all people to grow from a soul level, where the depth can be immense.  What you can achieve is limitless!  The upside to your personal accomplishments is that it makes it easier for you to believe in the gift of empowering everyone who is your neighbor on this planet, in this world.  Whether or not you choose to believe in a Divine Power does not make that much of a difference.  That statement will have many people wondering how that could possibly be.  The universe only knows about thoughts and energy, in positive and negative vibrations.  It responds to each of them as though you were its personal genie.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Imagine how enriched that makes you!  Even if you decide against the veracity of the Creator, the empowerment of love, generosity, patience, hope, faith, trust and infinite abundance will take on a life of their own.  It begins with your own actions and philosophies.  If you are color blind to the differences amongst all humankind, then you are on your way to setting a tone of melodic energies to one and all.  The world becomes a better place: a place filled with more harmonic value because each individual is working on their own small corner of their existence, but in a way that is not selfish. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Everything that you do has a ripple effect.  Like the small pebble thrown into a calm lake, concentric rings flow out.  They start small, but the energy carries them further and further from the center.  You are the center of the universe!  All of your deeds, thoughts and actions will produce the ripple of whatever they are.  This is why the Law of Attraction works so well.  If the “pebble” behaves in approachable, compassionate, optimistic and loving ways, then the waves of those same aspects expand to all corners of the globe.  If you think you do not make a difference, you would be completely in err.  Every cell in your body stores the life force of the universe.  It is up to you to determine how you want to leave your mark on society.  Your guides and teachers in the Light hope that you choose wisely.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Only a few day left!

There are many reasons that can cause this.  Some&amp;nbsp;are the general malaise of eating poorly during the holiday season, or slipping into a depression that may take you from being emotionally down to knocking down your physical energy level.  The last six weeks of the year is a time when many people reflect on what has taken place over the year.  Most of the time, this is done by people who have had some sort of loss or did not meet the goals they set for themselves.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;All of the fatigue, sadness, and improper thoughts will be eradicated when you begin to allow yourself to focus on what is positive.  Some of you may be tired of hearing about the power of positive thinking.  However, it is a time-tested way of improving your material worth, along with raising the level of internal enthusiasm that ignites the universe to match things up with you that will help to elevate all the good factors in your life.  Being able to promote a gifted effort and improvement in all facets of your personal jaunt through this existence is exactly what you want to do.  It will eviscerate any blues or lack of motivation, thereby causing you to march forth with enthusiasm.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It will always be healthier for you, on all levels, when you make the determination that you are better off being optimistic about life.  It is much simpler to mentally squash all of your limiting thoughts when you can envision a powerful outcome.  This week is a great time to review whether or not your motivation comes from a plus or minus side of thinking about your future.  Your guides and angels will lift you up on their wings if you show enough respect for yourself to incorporate their union with your soul and physical body.  Embrace yourself as though you love who you are.  The fatigue will disappear; the opportunities will sprout up continuously for you to smile and love life more.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: lime; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Less&amp;nbsp;than&amp;nbsp;one week left!

It is meant as a reminder that showing gratitude makes for a happier human.  It allows the love and positive vibrations to run freely from your heart, soul and the aura that encircles you.  Why not make this a day for someone else to remember that there are good people and good things in their lives?  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You can fulfill many wishes from now through the end of the year, but you must take the time to seek the needs of those who may be struggling.  Whether or not you feel like you can make a difference is irrelevant.  Any pure effort will be an appreciated effort.  Simply being special is a gift in itself.  The gratitude shown to others for what they do for you is also key to a life exposed to great things.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Today, be grateful for your existence, because it means that you have the ability to have a needed, positive impact on yourself and all who you come in contact with.  Take time to feel and give blessings to where it is necessary.  Know that you are standing in the eye of empowerment--grace, God and gratitude.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Only a little more than a week left!

Are you doing your best to leave an affirmative, happy and wonderful legacy, or simply plodding through your days as I f they do not matter?  The substance of your attitude is what begins the process of living in joy, peace, harmony and success.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Each day is separate from the last one.  That means that no matter what may have gone wrong before, the day following it enables you to kick free of the negative residue of yesterday.  You are in control of your destiny; of the journey that you want to be comfortable with.  Nobody but you can slice the road to what makes you feel complete.  To give that power to someone else is to give the universe a message that you do not feel like you are worthy of being the hardy receiver of life that the Creator wants all people to be.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There will never be a shortage of opportunities for you to seek out and create enjoyment.  It can be found in parks, the beach, your neighborhood; with friends, family or even in meeting new people.  It can happen at work, a music concert, sports outing, or perhaps from reading a young child a storybook.  The order in which you approach everything has more to do with the assessment of what is valuable to you.  If you do not make yourself noteworthy on many levels, then how can you expect to have the vibrancy you are seeking reach you?  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many times, the advice from Spirit is meant only to encourage all people to apply their God-given gifts to improve themselves.  This requires you to immediately halt your pattern of negative thinking which happens verbally, in your mind and through your body language.  As you realize how much of your effort and energy is spent focusing on lack, sadness and a general “woe is me” approach to everything, then you will find it easier to disengage from it.  When you do this, the empowerment that you are seeking in order to fully live your life becomes intense and worth every second of work you do on changing for the better.  Make the adjustments necessary so that you can be in love with life!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;Only a little more than&amp;nbsp;one week left!&lt;/span&gt;  December 2nd, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

You do not establish a reputation with one act; at least as a general rule.  People will view you for the body of work you have done while bounding through your existence.  Mistakes will take place.  That is part of the process of soul growth, as well as the growth in the physical state.  The aspect that is frequently forgotten is that the people around you who are affected by your decisions are also learning.  If you bond those two concepts, it becomes all the more important for you to live your life with passion, love, generosity and humanitarianism.  Each of these traits will come easily when you link yourselves to the blessings that are bestowed upon you from abiding by all spiritual principles.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Having faith is not that difficult.  It requires you to be more consciously aware of the Source of life that is in all things.  By mirroring the shadow cast by it, then all of your movements are going to more smoothly defined.  Behaving in the way we speak of becomes subconscious.  Much like breathing when you are asleep, you will intuitively know the correct way to do things that best honors yourself, soul and the soul of mankind.  This is not a philosophy, but a way of life for all good citizens of the universe to abide by.  It takes no money; no extravagant surroundings.  All it requires is trust and the inner security of doing the right thing, even when that feels like it goes against the grain of what you might personally want.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When you live bathed in truth, you will never have to look backwards to see what was said.  All thoughts are kept pure and since they are veritable, that means that there will never be a reason for negative discord to be part of your life.  It is only when you start creating your own version of what the truth may be that problems will arise.  Even if you were well-intentioned, the fact that you were not honest sends a variety of signals to the universe that will ultimately slow up your progress towards success.  Impingements on your happiness can happen, but they are never as dire as some people think they are.  Living in accordance with the Golden Rule will always have you reaping golden rewards.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Any day is a good day to build your character.  There is never a wrong time to start living in the way that would best suit you for the abundance that you are allowed to have.  Be at peace with yourself so that your soul will always be at peace with it Originator.

Some will look at it as being nothing more than people as a collective whole, while others will absorb the meaning to be that it is all about compassion and kindness towards their fellow man or woman.  Both are legitimate ways of defining it, but the part of humanity that we need to speak about is your literal actions that make for the right motives and harmony.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The reality is that we, in spirit, look at humanity in more of the latter description; where kindness, compassion and love are anchors to living life in a successful, blessed way.  It is precisely the way we would hope that all people behaved.  Think about how much more relaxed and problem-free this global planet of neighbors would be.  When you consider that many disagreements and skirmishes start due to the fact that one or more parties act in opposition of living in a humanitarian way, you might be surprised that there are not more uprisings.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While you do not need to control your own actions to be singularly responsible for fixing the world, by doing small humanitarian acts for whoever you can, you actually do send a signal through your energy that emanates out to many others.  In most cases, those people will then feel compelled to think about doing similar random acts of kindness.  This is the perfect time to start a pattern of this type of behavior.  It seems easier for most people to tithe and offer their time and help to others during the holidays, but once you start doing it, when it comes from your heart, you feel it necessary to continue throughout the year.  All we ask is that you do one small thing this coming week to show your brand of humanity.  Give from your heart, mind, wallet, or from any other form that shows your fellow person that you care about them.  Do this knowing that you are blessed, loved and cared for by your family, friends and guardians in the Light.  These are the encouraging thoughts from The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Time is running out!&amp;nbsp; December 2nd, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

Many people forget that they should turn to their Inner Child because it links them directly to the Source of life.  With a quiet mind, words will be felt or heard that will encourage you to forge ahead.  There will be&amp;nbsp;recognition that failure is impossible because you are part of a greater whole; part of a society that is geared towards aiding those with good hearts, minds and souls.  From this aspect of your existence, the power of confidence can be derived.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;During some of your darkest moments, the way to find the lightest answers are to embrace the strength that you have.  Your self-confidence will rise higher as you understand the union that you have with this infinite energy.  Imagine how great it would be to feel that you can conquer all of your goals!  Why would you not want to take advantage of this kind of support?  You have an ally built into you!  You have the spirit of life all around you!  Not once will you find it to be inhibiting you when you hush your mind and insecurities long enough to bring the gift of knowledge forward.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There is a plan for your life.  All you have to do is show faith in yourself; in your connection to the wheel of loved ones and guardians in the Light who are always rotating their energies around you.  Nobody wants you to fail who truly cares about you.  Those who give off an expectation of doing that must be stepped away from to varying degrees.  Obviously, the relationship you have with them makes a difference, but removing yourself from the vice of negativity will automatically make you a candidate for improvements.  You must allow the flow of love that you have for yourself, and from others, to be the beacon that guides you toward the promises of a universe that has endless supplies of riches.  Partaking in them does not take away from someone else.  That said, it is time for you to honor the gifts waiting to be bestowed upon you.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;December 2nd,&lt;/span&gt; Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

If you have trouble reaching your goals; if something sets you away from the outcome that you are trying to reach, then excuses without adjustments will only serve to keep you limited.  On the other hand, when you look at your perceived failure with an eye towards improving, the changes that you will invoke are going to make all the difference.  Success becomes easier to attain.  Plus, failure finds its way to you a lot less frequently.  The choice is always yours.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What we mean by “the choice is always yours” is that all people have the innate ability to change their thoughts.  While many of them are subconsciously based, they were created by a consistency of patterned thinking and experiences.  Since the mind works most of the time at a sub-level, once you change your approach to life by forcing away any of the mental chatter and verbal statements, you begin to build a triumphant love and expectation “gift” to yourself.  Spirit wants everyone to be happy, well-adjusted and blessed.  It is much harder to do when so many in society behave in the precise way that we are suggesting be changed.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Allow your angels to be your guiding light.  Even as this age of spiritual growth and awareness continues, there are numerous physical beings who dismiss the importance of trusting in their guardians in the Light.  The messages we bring you always have the intent of helping you.  Never are they intended to retard your growth.  While some lessons may not always be relevant to all people, this one certainly is.  Throughout time, the aspects of an optimistic mind has been proven and recorded.  By today’s standards, you would assume it was easier to do in the past because there was a lack of pressure.  However, the fact that so much of society is broadcast instantaneously, those who lives even a century ago did not have most of the modern conveniences to assist them.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;All excuses must be eradicated!  Live your life knowing that you are loved and appreciated.  This is true of all people, because as you walk in the Creator’s footsteps, you are being given energies of hope and inspiration.  Do not set that aside in order to keep yourself contained in a walled off zone of comfort.  It is time to break the shackles of resistance and allow your wings to carry you to places of beauty.  You and your soul deserve that!  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;December 2nd, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

They wake up and are looking to be loved, fed and cared for.  Their day is spent playing, sleeping or getting into mischief, or having someone pet them which is equal to most people getting a massage or back rub.  The only worries they have are giving love to anyone who shows them genuine affection, as well as to guard against those who are intruding on it.  Life is simple and they know that survival in a domestic situation is enhanced with sheer love, both in giving and receiving.  All of it is based on total trust in a Higher Power, although in the case of a pet, you are the physical higher power for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What if humans lived by those same basic tenets?  There would be nobody unhappy because there would be no expectations of having that.  You would wake up smiling, despite any pains or personal hardships because you would know that you are going to be immediately doused with appreciation for your mere existence.  The burdens that hold most people down would be irrelevant.  The piles of bills or e-mails and letters that need to be responded to would not seem overwhelming or even the least bit bothersome.  In fact, you might even enjoy the challenge of dealing with them because you instinctually know that better days and better things are on the horizon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While this lesson is a little playful, the message is still serious.  Until you thoroughly change your attitude and actions so that they match the joyousness of living in a state of anticipated love, then you will continue to be matched up with the thoughts you have.  In other words, you will attract burdens and problems, or you will attract the awesomeness of positive vibrations.  Think about how much fun your life would be if you started each day off expecting it to be one filled with frolicking?  In a sense, when you put your faith and trust into a Higher Power, you will be cared for, loved and nurtured so that all of your expectations and dreams can be fulfilled.  Why not give it a try?  The most important aspect is to do so steadily and with conviction and commitment.  Otherwise, you are broadcasting that you would rather not fetch what makes you happy.  These are the loving thoughts from The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: lime; color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;December 2nd, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

The message to the universe is that you are bigger than any issues that may arise that hold you down, limit you or simply make you feel like you are beaten on all levels.  The&amp;nbsp;idea that you can control your future by controlling your verbal, mental and body language goes unrealized by most people.  In fact, for those who are in deeper funks, the simplicity of it will seem annoying.  It is those people who are truly not ready to claim the intended happiness that the Creation is trying to give them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Immediately, we would suspect that there will be disagreements with those thoughts.  Part of the incredulous life of all humans is that they can disagree.  This is not an invitation to dismiss what is being shared, but an acknowledgement that not all people will see things that benefit them very easily.  The power of positive thinking and actions is a time-tested truism.  While there are many gurus who teach it, there are virtually none who only want for you to feel lifted up the moment you awaken each day.  That distinction comes from the High Power; the Source of love and infinite prosperity and wisdom.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While many of you would think this message was good enough within the first few sentences, others are trying to outwit the lesson.  In general, they would be the same ones who are struggling and trying to find a way to justify their demeanor.  If what you are doing is not allowing you to reap the right rewards, why is it so difficult for you to try something else?  Let today be a new journey of love, hope and trust.  Begin to unfurl the wasted energy you spend on convincing yourself and others that you have too many problems for this to work.  With each small step, a victory takes place.  That is all we will ever ask of you from Spirit.  Change one unhealthy approach and replace it with something better.  Love yourself enough to do this.  These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;---------&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: yellow; color: blue; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;December 2nd, Jim will be in NYC at the Meta Center with Steve Maraboli, acclaimed inspirational and motivational speaker.

Most people will say they have someone special in their lives, but rarely take time to acknowledge the “why” part of it.  Often, human beings are connected on deeper soul levels.  When this occurs, understanding the attraction can frequently cause confusion.  It is up to each of you to decipher what the aspects of the relationship are all about.  There can be a barrage of differing thoughts; some actually opposing each other.  Do not make that give you the feeling of insecurity or mystification.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Often, it is God who puts the people you need into your lives.  Whether the human populace wants to recognize or embrace the union as practical really makes no difference.  Someone who is destined to be authentically associated or in love with another will find ways to overcome any obstacle, provided of course that the relationship is mutually attractive.  This holds true of any connection and makes barely a difference if it a business relationship, friendship or deeper romance.  There is a reason that you feel safe and trust who you are with.  It runs from the depth of your souls.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Your favorite person can be a parent, lover, child, friend, co-worker and more.  The list is endless because the bounty of unions amongst soul-filled people is endless.  Most relationships that have someone as your “favorite” are usually mutually respectful situations.  Think about that.  Would someone be your favorite person if they disrespected you?  What if they spent time putting you down instead of making you feel uplifted?  We want you to stop stressing; to stop worrying about that perfect soul mate.  It is not something that should be responsible for your long-term happiness.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Why not try to become your own favorite person?  If you can find the best attributes that others see in you, then you will find it easier to get along with yourself.  This will make you more productive and a target to become someone else’s favorite person.  In order to love fully, you must accept that you deserve this for yourself.  Only then will you radiate so strongly that you will be an icon for other people to see you; to want to be part of your life.  Limit and learn to eradicate the negative “voice” in your head that puts you down when the Voice Within is telling you the opposite.  As a part of the Creator, you are bound by perfection, but the imperfections of a physical life will always confuse you.  Stay true to your heart and soul!  Th
