Fall In Love With Yourself

Ruth Hegarty — Fri, 28 May 2010 18:35:53 +0000

Let me remind you of just how delightful you are. It’s very hard to attract what you want if you do not feel irresistibly attractive to yourself – your whole, deep, authentic and wonderful self. The definition of the Law of Attraction is that like attracts like. If you judge yourself, berate your shortcomings, feel unconfident about your talents, choices and desires or feel remotely unworthy of love and the other things you want, guess what you will attract? More stuff like those feelings and the disappointments that go with them. No matter what you want, what you look like or where you are at this moment in time you are truly and entirely entitled to love yourself (even your weaknesses which will be the subject of week 17). I could go on and on about this because I am so passionate about helping others to recognize and embrace their greatness and unashamedly (remember principle 7 last week) put yourselves out in the world as the delightful creatures that you are. Don’t worry if you are not fully at this place yet. The principle is about the process of falling in love with yourself. Look for things to love, ask others what they love about you and accept what they say as truth. Even if you can only find one tiny lovable thing about yourself it is enough to start the ball rolling. You will benefit tremendously from embracing this principle as will all who come in contact with you. Full Article

Four Must Have Attitudes that Make Your Business Grow

Ruth Hegarty — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 22:41:07 +0000

All success comes first and foremost from your mindset. Without attitudes that support and foster your well-being and success you won’t reach the levels of true success you want and deserve. The reason is simple and universal: EVERYTHING stems from your state of mind. A creative mind leads to creative actions, a problem focused mind leads to more and more problems. That is how our brains work and that is how the universe works. Like the laws of physics, our physical world is dictated by universal principles that say like attracts like. That means positive energy attracts positive things and negative energy attracts negative things. That’s why your attitude is so important to your outer circumstances. The following four attitudes will help you amp up the great results you want and deserve. Full Article

The Secret to Creating a Prosperity Mindset

Ruth Hegarty — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 22:56:14 +0000

Do you think earning a higher income is hard? If you do, ask yourself why? Where did you get the idea that wealth was difficult to achieve? Who taught you that? Why do you choose to hang onto this believe? In what way does it serve you today? I know for myself, when I used to believe that wealth and success were beyond my reach that having that belief was strangely comforting. If wealth was out of my reach, then it wasn’t my fault that I was stuck in a job I didn’t like woefully under-earning and underachieving. The whole situation was beyond my control and that let me off the hook for taking responsibility for my life. Even as I complained about my situation I never had to really stop and look at what had brought me to that point. Full Article

Are You Taking Inspired Action or Just Going Through the Motions?

Ruth Hegarty — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 18:43:56 +0000

If you aren’t taking inspired action, you are probably just going through the motions of creating your dreams. What’s the difference? Inspired actions come from a place of allowing and joyful manifestation of your desires. Whereas going through the motions is living by default, doing what you think you “should” be doing or what you see other people doing. Going through the motions leaves you frustrated while inspired actions lead you to manifest the life you truly want and deserve. Full Article

Why is Taking it Easy so Hard?

Ruth Hegarty — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 00:22:14 +0000

The real reason why you find it hard to take it easy is because (drum roll, please) you THINK it MUST be HARD. Seriously, that is the ONLY reason life feels hard. When you choose to believe that life has to be hard because that’s just the way it is, then you are deliberately (even if maybe unconsciously) creating the experience of difficulty in your life. In order to take it easy in your life, you simply need to come from a place where you believe it’s possible. Now, I know it isn’t always comfortable to change which is the main reason we get caught up in staying in situations that don’t feel good. However, I promise you that deliberately creating a love that you love is more than worth the initial discomfort.

Get Clear On What You Want

Ruth Hegarty — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:38:52 +0000

I feel like I talk about this all the time and today I wanted to give you some more specific steps for getting to that really juicy clarity that I want you to have. Since you attract what you put your focus on, the more clearly you can envision what you want, the more focused your energy can be. That means, you can be faster and more precise in your manifesting. And, of course, you can’t manifest what you want at all if you don’t know what it is that you want. Full Article

How Do You Feel?

Ruth Hegarty — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:35:32 +0000

As someone who runs my business (and life) based on Law of Attraction principles, I get to spend a lot of time checking in with how I feel. There are many benefits to this practice which is why I am recommending it to you today. The more you check in with how you feel throughout your day, the more in tune you are with your inner landscape and outer progress. You have the opportunity in an instant to shift your energy if at any point in your day you find yourself not feeling as good as you want to. You also get direct feedback from your emotions on where you are in relation to your actions. What I mean by this is that if you decide to do something and you don’t feel great about it then it isn’t an inspired action and won’t result in the outcomes you are hoping for. If you experience this, simply focus your energy on thoughts of the outcomes you desire and the “right” actions will reveal themselves to you. You save time, energy and money by using your emotions to increase the likelihood of getting what you want. Full Article

It is What it Is – And Why That’s OK

Ruth Hegarty — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:40:44 +0000

“It is what it is.” This is something my mother used to say often to forestall complaints about a situation not being as we wished it to be. It’s a mantra that I find very powerful. Accepting that everything and everyone in your life is, simply, exactly what it is, is a powerful perspective that allows you to escape the trap of “coulda, woulda, shoulda.” You don’t have to accept in the sense that you don’t make changes; simply accept that, in this moment, this is the situation. When you do this, you don’t have to waste time wishing things were different, complaining about how things are or wondering how you might have stopped it. All you have to do, is see (accept) what is, decide how you want things to be moving forward, and get on with your life. Simple. Full Article

How to Check In On What You’re Attracting

Ruth Hegarty — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:36:32 +0000

A recent question from a listener of my Art of Joyful Living radio show prompted this article. The question is: how do I stay on track throughout my day in terms of focusing on how I feel and what I truly want to manifest in my life? I love this question and it comes up often with my one on one clients, too. The key to changing a lifetime habit of default thinking is to become mindful (take notice of) what you are thinking on an ongoing basis. The more you do this, the more attuned you become to what you typically think so that you can choose to stick with those thoughts (if they’re working for you) or consciously choose to change them (if they’re not). As with learning any new habit, repetition is your secret to success. I use a variety of reminder techniques with my clients to help them “break into” their thoughts throughout their day so they can check in on what they are thinking and, consequently, what they are attracting. You can use these same simple techniques to revolutionize how you think. Full Article

Express Your Independence

Ruth Hegarty — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:20:14 +0000

One of the best and easiest ways to express your independence is by learning to love and accept yourself more and to “get” that you have the power to manifest any kind of life you want. That is such a powerful concept. Full Article

Living Your Wealth in the Here and Now

Ruth Hegarty — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:13:32 +0000

As this week’s quotation from the book Daily OM says, “sages of all faiths agree that the current moment is the only thing that really exists.” This is a concept I share with all my clients because it is from our focus on the present moment that we are able to live abundantly and prosperously – no mater what our current circumstances. This is an important point in the Law of Attraction as well as a key aspect of creating effortless success. Why? Let’s start with what happens when we focus on the past. When we focus on the past we can only think, create and act from what we have known. Unless what we have known is abundance and prosperity, then we will only be able to create more of what we have known in the past. What is that for you? If you are excited about the thought of living your wealth in the here and now, then my guess is you have not yet experienced amazing prosperity and abundance. As Albert Einstein said, “We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” If your focus is on what you have had in the past, you will only be capable of creating more of the same.

Who Do You Think You Are?

The Zen of Ease

One day someone in one of my mastermind groups told me she thought of me as the “Queen of Ease” which I absolutely loved (and may continue to use as my alter ego) since my mission in life is to help the woman entrepreneur have more time and energy for herself AND more money and success in her business – AND do this all in a way that feels effortless!

Your Community of Success

Ruth Hegarty — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 20:07:30 +0000

Research has shown that we are the average of the five people with whom we spend the most time. Your income is likely around the average of their five incomes. Your level of personal and professional success is also likely around the average of their combined personal and professional success. That’s a great piece of information to have. My mother used to always say, “birds of a feather flock together.” Parents often tell their children that they will be judged by adults primarily based on the group of friends they have. This is part of being social creatures. We often seek out others like us, usually consciously but sometimes unconsciously. Think about the people with whom you spend the most time, even expand the number out from five to 10, 15, 20, etc. What are they like? How do you feel when you are with them? When you aren’t with them? Do they inspire you? Do they support your dreams? Do they encourage you to go after what you want? Full Article

Commitment: Your First Step in ANY Successful Endeavor

Ruth Hegarty — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 00:54:52 +0000

Whenever you embark on a project, relationship, action, etc.., first ask yourself, on a scale of 1 to 10, what is my level of commitment to the success of this project, relationship, action, etc.? If the answer is less than level 10 commitment, you simply aren’t committed enough to success to make getting started worthwhile. That doesn’t mean that your plan isn’t viable and isn’t a great idea, it simply means you aren’t ready YET to get started. What do you do? Say, for example, that you’ve assessed your current level of commitment as a 7. Ask yourself, what do you need to do/have/believe in order to raise that 7 to a 10 (or you can go from 7 to 8, from 8 to 9 and then from 9 to 10). Keep doing what you need to do to get your commitment level up to 10 even if it’s simply to sit with the idea for a while without taking any interim action. If you can’t get to 10, ask yourself why you thought you wanted this project, relationship, etc. Perhaps you only think you “should” do this to succeed but it isn’t the right thing for you or now is not the right time.

How To Take Inspired Action

Ruth Hegarty — Fri, 29 May 2009 18:51:14 +0000

I often write about the role of focus and vision in manifesting your dreams of effortless success. I know that folks are so often anxious to take action – and I’m all for taking action, even MASSIVE action – BUT (and I know all my clients know I usually forbid the use of the word “but”) BUT, action ONLY works when it comes from a place of focus and vision.

Ruth Hegarty — Thu, 21 May 2009 21:31:44 +0000

These three simple AND easy to do processes will help you manifest your dreams in a powerful, joyful and effortless manner.

Focus on Deliberate Creation Through Active Thought Processes

Ruth Hegarty — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 22:15:03 +0000

There’s a balance that you want to strike between thinking and acting. Thinking comes first as you need to know what you want and why you want it in order to effectively go out there and get it. This article shares some ways for you to think AND create at the same time. Think of your actions as flowing from your thoughts and emotions. They are not separate entities at all. Following are what I call Active Thought Processes that help you to really “get” how you can create the life of your dreams with your thoughts and emotions. It really can be, as Abraham says, “as easy to create a castle as a button.” Full Article

Stress and the Law of Attraction – How Stress Attracts What You Fear and Blocks What You Really Want

Elisabeth Kuhn — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 23:22:25 +0000

If you have studied the Law of Attraction, the title “Stress and the Law of Attraction” probably made you cringe, especially if you are under a lot of stress. And with good reason. We know that how we feel and what we think about draws more of the same. We also know that stress is a sign that we are spending entirely too much time thinking about things we do NOT want.

“By being clear about what you want and no longer contradicting it with opposing thoughts, you will enable the Laws of the Universe to do their work, and you will not feel a need to offer so much action to compensate for inappropriate thought.
