Start the New Year Right This Way! 2

Starting the new year right is going to take a lot of love and time but it is going to be worth it.  Here are six ways to start your new year right!  

1.  Clean out your closet and drawer and shelves of clothing and shoes you don't wear: 
Get rid of clothes and shoes cluttering your closet.  Anything you have not worn for a season is usually a good measure of something you need to let go of and give away.  Find the nearest donation box or place of business.  Please don't throw it in the garbage.  When you give to your Goodwill or Salvation army you are also recycling and saving the planet.  Be in clear consciousness and give it away to someone.  

2.  Clean out your fridge and cabinets of all food that is not aligned with good health: 
Clean out your fridge (I did today) of all the things that are high fat or have a lot of sugar or you know you should not be eating if you are for example diabetic.  Start the new year with lots of fruit and veggies in your fridge.  Make some smoothies instead of having those cookies in your cabinet.  Start the new year with a clean body.  

3.  Have your car detailed: 
Our cars collect a lot of dirt not to mention energy of people who come in and out of it.  Clear that energy and clean your car up to make it look like new.  This way you will not be tempted to buy a new car you might not be able to afford.  New years is a time when car dealers lay it on thick and the temptation is there to buy.  Lots of good deals but not as good as having the car you have repainted and detailed.  

4.  Clear that basement and garage: 
Our basements and our storage area is a hub for keeping junk and most of it is not something we will likely ever use.  In fact more than half of what we store we will likely never use.  Do the same.  Give it to a Salvation Army or have a garage sale and recycle as much of it as possible.  You will feel much better when your basement is cleared of all that stuff you don't need and you have room to see what you do need and keep like bikes or the lawn mower that is in the garage.  

5.  Take a class: 
Take a class.  
My intention is to take a class in stand up comedy and photography.  It is one of the ways to start a hobby and make some extra money.  

6.  Reconnect with a family member or friend: 
Reach out to a person you need to talk to about unfinished business.  Call a friend and apolgize for the last argument you had or to have coffee and reconnect.  This kind of action will bring you joy and will begin a new year with family and friends in a new refreshing and forgiving manner.  

Note: I have started my new year by washing the slipcovers for my sofa.  Lots of work but worth it before they get too dirty since they are white.  Maybe there is a project like this one you would like to get to doing.  I always recommend that you not ask anyone to help you.  No one wants to do that kind of work for someone else, let's just be real.  LOL

A Seasoned Vs Old Person

Those of you who know me personally might be aware that I don't use the word "old".  I don't think that people should be referred to with a word like old and I believe that as we live longer lives we are wiser and that we can be looked upon as "seasoned".  For me the word seasoned means that we have lived a good life and that we have gone from one season to another experiencing life and the many ups and downs of it.  I don't see the word old as one that honors any human being for their acquisition of wisdom and the things they have been able to overcome.  I for one consider myself a seasoned man not an "old man". There are so many meanings to the word old but the one that I am not in agreement with is the connotation that older is less than and younger is more important.  Unfortunately we live in a world where youth is celebrated and seasoned people are looked down on.  The thought is that younger people are more attractive or that they are m...

Your Skirt Is Over Your Head

I am uncertain as to how many of my readers know what I mean about putting your skirt over your head.  All I know is that my sister once said it and I think I heard it in a movie once.  I do know that in the movie "Mermaids" Cher who played the mom had some great lines about being a woman and just having a good time with life.  In one of those what should be famous lines Cher's daughter played by Winnona Ryder says: "Don't you think yoiiu are too old for that dress?"to which Cher responds with: "Don't be silly Charlotte, a woman is never too old".  In another part there is a stunning young man waiting on their porch to welcome them to the country area where they moved and upon setting eyes on him Winnona Ryder who is Charlotte is mezmerized by him.  Cher suddenly turns around and says: "too bad your hell bent on becoming a nun".  To say that Cher truly pulls the dress over her head is really minimizing her role in this movie that I wo...

Visualize It, Manifest It.

Let me just excuse myself from the non-believers as I know you are out there and the mere idea of believing and then achieving seems silly.  If you are one of these people, you should stop reading now and simply not waste any time because if you don't believe in yourself then you will not understand how manifestation works.  This blog is not just about believing and then getting what you believe in but more importantly how to go from the thought of being your highest self to actually being your highest self. And so if you believe, even a little, keep going because this is about having what you want in life ether spiritually, emotionally or physically.  Here are some ways to get there: Setting Your Intention: The very first thing to do when you want to manifest something (joy, money, relationship) is to set your intention.  You can set your intention by speaking of what you want in a way that feels intentional. An intention can sound like this: My intention is ...
