Life Unfolding Beautifully

Joy / Knowledge / Empowerment / Freedom / Love / Appreciation
Well, we made it!!
Today is our final day of the EGS Challenge!!
(Be sure to listen to this morning’s call)
Of course, this is really just the beginning. If you’ve been participating in the challenge or are just reading along, hopefully you have a much better [...]

Passion
This is not a word that I’ve been able to relate to very well. And I’m not the only one.
We discussed this conundrum on both calls today. Be sure to listen to each as the callers speak very eloquently about the possible meanings of Passion.
Tomorrow is our last day of the EGS Challenge… [...]

Enthusiasm / Eagerness / Happiness
So… how are you doing? We’re almost at the end of the challenge. What have you learned about yourself? About money? About your feelings?
Today I was reminded that doing all of this work simply to make something happen is not really the point. The point is [...]

Positive Expectation / Belief
Today has brought lots of opportunities to move into Positive Expectation.
Someone close to me and whom I love dearly is sitting in jail at this moment waiting to be arraigned. Why he is there is not important. What is important is that, in my mind, I see him, with Positive [...]

Optimism
On the call last night, Christine was asking about the definition of this word. There are some who will read this and think, “What?” And there are others who will think, “Yeah! What does it mean?”
Most likely, there is at least one set point on the EGS that you may have thought [...]

Hopefulness
Update #1 10:40 PM CDT
So, the RNC convention is giving me all sorts of opportunities for Hopefulness. I know this isn’t specifically about money, but as I notice news about the events surrounding the nominations, I’m noticing that my attention gets sent back to how I want to feel Hopefulness about how this election [...]

Contentment
(I’m posting this very late and backdating it — my apologies!)
For me, Contentment is similar to Acceptance. So, today I have found myself moving through the day and feeling ok with everything that was happening. A few upsets occurred, but they were not a big deal. Or I didn’t see them that [...]

Boredom
This morning’s call is now available. You can listen to it here.
We’re continuing our journey up the EGS today. Every set point is expanding. And we are well past the halfway mark.
I want to invite you to continue to focus on your new story and to really bring your attention to it. [...]

Pessimism
Apparently I have nothing really to say about this set point. That would be evident since I forgot to even post this morning!
On to Day 15!!

Frustration / Impatience / Irritation
Good morning! Well, it’s almost afternoon — as I am late in posting!
Some interesting things are happening with this challenge. No one has called in for the support calls since Thursday night, except for this morning when I had technical problems and missed the one person who did call [...]
