Asara and Miss Parker are car shopping after her car was totaled by a friend – no one was hurt.  Helping the economy as best we can! We picked this one – do you know what kind it is?

Time starts NOW!

February is the month focused on heart, on love.  Here in the US we celebrate Valentine’s Day—a day of celebrating those we love.  So what better month than to celebrate saying Yes! to your heart’s desires!

Now that you have redefined your top 5 values, it is time to put them into play with saying Yes! to yourself and to your values.  Whoa!  Feel the power in the word Yes!  Not just yes… but Yes!..with passion, excitement, motivation, aliveness, newness, wonder, curiosity, confidence.  You stand within great power when you say Yes! to what you want in life; to new outcomes; to intentionally creating a state of Yes! in your body/mind/spirit.

How many times a day do your thoughts contain the words ‘no, not, can’t, won’t, unable, no way?’   More often than not, I would venture to say.  Take a few moments to close your eyes, take a few deep breaths and tune into your internal experience.  Pay attention to your thoughts, images and feelings.  How much No! is running through them?  Our fears will cause us to say no to what we want.  Our beliefs about  our ‘not enoughness’, our lack of self-worth, self-confidence, self-love cause us to say No to what we want.  Yes, there are times when it is in our best interest to say no.  And there are days and situations where it is easy to say Yes.    This Challenge of saying Yes! is about honoring your true nature, your true values, and your true hopes, dreams, wishes & desires.  It is about saying Yes! to yourself—to what YOU want.  Not what you think is ‘right’.  Not to please another.  But to please yourself.

Many of us have a streak of co-dependence running through our brain, so we say yes, even when we’d rather not.  This is just another way of saying No to yourself.  When you say yes to something you don’t want to do or because you think it will make another happy or because you are too afraid to say no, the word yes may be coming out of your mouth, but you are, in reality, saying No to yourself.  Your body responds to the ‘no’ and that feeling you get when you’ve said no against your values.  So it really is a No, in yes clothing isn’t it?

This Challenge of saying Yes! to your life is about saying Yes! to all those hopes, dreams, wishes & desires that lie within your heart.  It is about saying Yes! to Life as YOU want to live it.  It will sometimes include other people & include being of service—that’s the ‘booby prize’ for the month—that you get to say Yes! to things that help others.  The focus for this month’s Challenge, though, is on saying Yes! to yourself—about life, about love, about relationships, about money, about everything you desire.  In learning to say Yes! to yourself, you are creating right within your very cells new outcomes in your life.  When you say Yes! to what you value—your life transforms itself, wraps itself around this new way of being in the world.

Think of something you really want to say Yes! to.  Close your eyes and allow that thought to flow through your body.  Notice what it feels like to say Yes! to a dream or a desire.

Notice how your body feels alive…or does it feel fearful?  Just notice….you are simply gathering information for your commands.  What happens when you say Yes! to yourself?

If your body feels alive—you can command for MORE of that aliveness in your life.  If your body goes into negative, fearful thinking—what do you want instead of that?  You command for those new outcomes.

The greatest gift you can give to your family and to the world is to learn to follow your heart and say Yes! to your life.  So the challenge is not just saying Yes! to your life.

The Challenge is to say Yes! to something EVERY DAY OF THE MONTH.  Do this and by the end of February you will have said Yes! to 28 new outcomes.  Just imagine your life transformed by 28 new Yes! outcomes!  How will your life be different come March 1^st with 28 new Yes!s.  WooHoo!

Who wants to play????  Say Yes!

Here is mine…..

“I, Bonnie Strehlow, eagerly commit to the TOC February Challenge of ‘Saying Yes! to one new thing each day’.  Every day I commit to saying Yes! to one dream, hope, desire, wish.  I commit to retraining my mind to pay attention to saying Yes! to myself, for myself, about myself,  my experiences, my way of being, my belief structures, my ideas of what is possible to achieve.  I commit to marking each moment of “Saying Yes!” and to celebrate all evidence that I am living new outcomes of Yes!.  I also commit to sharing my “Yes! to life” with others in my life, so that they too may say Yes! to theirs.  I commit to doing all of this in the spirit of Love, Laughter, Joy, Peace and saying Yes!.”

Show Up.  Be willing to show up in your own life, set your priorities and create your life anew by commanding that it is so. So many times we spend our lives going from one item on our daily ‘to do’ list to another.  No one item becomes more important than another until there is a crises.  Then we switch to crisis management.  By showing up for yourself, meaning…making yourself the first priority and then taking a fresh look at all the things you feel you must do and deciding which ones a really important in your life, you can change the way you are in the world by going to theta.

Be Willing.  Be willing to actually change based on what you find out about yourself when you investigate who you are and why you are important to yourself and others.  So many times we say we want to change, but the willingness to make that investment is not there.  There are many paths to fulfillment, however, it is critical to be willing to choose one and walk that path.  Do this by going to your subconscious and changing your programming.

Trust Yourself.  Sometimes we don’t change because we don’t trust that we can.  We know that some of us have a history of procrastination or avoidance.  Find the way that seems easy for you, I don’t mean easy in the sense of abrogating responsibility, but in the sense of finding a path that offers you a simple, straightforward method to take your life where you want it to go.  Trust your gut and research the opportunities.  Trust that you can command changes in your DNA and change your life dramatically.

Celebrate.  Make certain that you build in a celebration of your successes.  Don’t wait until you reach the final goal.  For one thing, there is no final goal, we are always in process, and that is the good news.  Celebrate the steps along the way, the daily things you notice that indicate changes in your life, big or small….success is success.  Go to theta, change your DNA, create anew, and celebrate.

A kindergarten teacher asks a child what she is drawing. “I’m drawing a picture of God,” the child replies. “But, sweetheart,” says the teacher, “no one knows what God looks like.” “They will in a minute!” says the child.

What does your picture of yourself look like?  Have you consciously drawn it?  Or have you left it to your own unconscious to design your life?  If you want to know what the picture in your subconscious looks like, just take a look at what you have in your life, and you will know what that is what you have created from your subconscious programming.

Are you content, or angry?  Are you financially wealthy, or having difficulty?  Are you fit and healthy, or facing a triple bypass?  Are you in a loving relationship, or unhappy?
If your answers tend to run in the angry, hardship, unhealthy and unhappy categories, you may want to take a look at The One Command.

The One Command is a simple, straightforward approach to creating the life you actually want, the one that is content, wealthy, healthy and loving.  We spend so much time swimming in a pool of old programming, and it is so insidious because it is below our level of normal everyday awareness.  The way we can see our programming, is to look at what we have created in our lives, then we can make new decisions and create new programming.

You can actually learn to draw a much better picture of your life, one that looks much more like what Source would have in mind for you.  We live in a universe that is really on our side, so we can start acting like it and replace those old programs of limitation, lack, un-deservingness, and pain, with deservingnewss, energy, abundance and joy, and we do it with The One Command.

Jack Schwartz, the brilliant humanitarian, educator, philosopher, naturopath and internationally known authority on voluntary controls in human energy systems, said,

“Inherent in every problem is a solution, but we become so associated with the problem that the solution can not arrive”.

Having the distinct honor of studying for over 6 years with Jack, I learned to voluntarily attain specific brainwave states, going into theta at will. From this state I was able to control pain, lower blood pressure, and create different emotional states. I could also release painful memories and replace them with joy and peace. Many years later, after traveling through a temporary Dark Night of the Soul, I found in theta a way to reach my dreams.

Jack Schwartz believed that there is a vital energy field that permeates all thought and space in the form of potential and is the essential un-manifested field from which we create physial matter, called the Source state. Our reality is undefined and open-ended in its unlimited potential, and we can create in any direction.
We hold immortal ideas and ancient wisdom within our DNA and adapt to the physical world by our perception. We choose from the wave of open-ended potential, discrete particles of thought and consciousness (our perception), that we then freeze into an idea – a belief that we define as our reality – and we only attract experiences to us that verify what we have created. We also repel those experiences that do not match that choice of our reality.
The biggest secret to this way of living is to become unidentified with the opinion of yourself that has been superimposed on you by the outside world. If the outside world has drummed it into you that your financial success means you are a good person, then financial reversal means you are not.
If you take another position – a neutral position of no judgment about your circumstances – that you are amazing, viable, loveable, and perfect under any set of circumstances I guarantee that you’ll be more flexible – open to more opportunity and willing to go forward in new ways to create your good life – the one that is just right for you.

Financial success, prosperity, and health changes, are all accessible within altered states of consciousness and these may include hypnosis, psychology, acupuncture, and spiritual practices.  There are multiple approaches including affirmations, positive thinking, and metaphysical beliefs.  Which ones work best, for everyone, and why?

Creating life changes by going to theta has been substantiated by a number of amazing scientists, healers, researchers, and other individuals, including people like Dr. Candace Pert, Dr. Bruce Lipton, and Gregg Braden.  These changes happen with no intervention other than their connection to Source mind, while in the deep brain wave of theta.

Changing our thinking to change our lives used to be a very complicated process.  It took a lot of dedication and effort.  But now we can make changes in our lives very simply, easily and straightforwardly.  The One Command process has proven to be outstandingly easy to learn and easy to practice.

In the theta state, we are able to instantly access our greater capacity, or the Source mind.  In this state, we are able to create what we want instantly and joyfully. Our normal waking state is the beta state, this is where we try to problem solve to various degrees of success.  In the theta state, we are instantly successful and creating what we want.

As we observe our own changes, we are actually changing our DNA.  We are changing the neuronet patterns of our thinking and become the witness to all these amazing creations in our lives.

Command a new, energized life of transformation.  Go to theta and change all those old limiting beliefs at the core level, including genetic, life history, and even at the soul level.  It is easy and simple to learn, and most importantly, it is fast.

There are many great gifts in theta, and while in that brain wave state, all information is available to you to download.  The information is transmitted directly from that greater consciousness to you. The One Command process that you use in theta is so powerful that you can have years of knowledge and experience given to you in moments. Solve your problems, build your new life, find your power, and do it all with the brilliance of The One Command.

What happens when we find that our anger has gotten out of hand and looks and acts a lot like an addiction?  We have excuses like the economy, the job market, our relationships, the war, terrorism, changes in our culture…and there are many combination of all those things.  Reacting to events can put us on a short fuse, especially if we don’t make different choices.

We need to be able to advance our consciousness and our mastery over our own behavior in a way that allows us to deal with fear and frustration by going to the theta brainwave and changing our neurology and biology and clearing old programs.

When we learn to go to our subconscious programming in a simple and straightforward way, we bypass our beta mind, the mind that runs the programs of daily activity, like going to work, making decisions, and mostly…worrying.  It is the practice of worry, an addictive behavior, that can keep us in stress and keep us from seeing our lives from a broader perspective.

By going to theta and choosing to be in alignment with our greater capacity while accessing our higher selves and deeper knowledge, we are able to not only release our anger, but also to prevent inordinate responses to situations.  When we stay in our beta minds, the repetitive and protective mind, we perpetuate our fear responses and our anger.

By learning to release our stress responses and move ourselves to a higher level of consciousness, we are also able to release blame and open ourselves to levels of understanding, willingness to negotiate and forgiveness.

There is a simple, easy, method to take us from our beta brainwaves to our theta brainwaves so that we can not only access programs of peace and open-mindedness, but also create new programs of tranquility and fresh ideas, and this process is The One Command.

“To be successful, all you have to do is give up everything you know”.
Asara Lovejoy

We have a little saying, ‘living in your living room’, which has to do with doing what you want to do and if you choose, do it in your living room.  And we are talking about making money here, and making all the money you want.

This may not be a new idea, it has been around for a millennium, or more….  What makes it new is that now, we know that what you want, wants you, and you can bring that into being.

Let’s take a look at our belief system regarding our economy. Everything that goes on in our lives now, with our current belief system, is tied to the economy of the world.  Therefore, the circumstances around us tend to affect us, from the news to conversations with our friends.  Our relationship with money depends on our relationship to fear and what we accept from the collective consciousness.  If we hear and accept that there is a downturn and we will lose our job, or not be able to pay for gas, then it becomes as true for us as it is for others who hear and believe the same things.

We can try to tune out all this scary information, and when we don’t turn it out, we lose confidence in what we think we are capable of.  Group collective consciousness tells us to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, cinch in our belts, cut down on everything we want and need.  This thinking can push us into a downward spiral.  Belief in lack, draws more lack and more difficulty…it is a downward spiral.  We let the world view drive us instead of us driving the world view.

So how do we change what we normally believe is possible and demonstrate instead prosperity, money, financial flow, and even relationships, with grace and ease in our lives? When the world is shifting and changing in the way it is, the doors of perception are opening to allow us to come into a whole new way of operating in the world.  And in this change, emotion is our greatest asset, our greatest wealth.

“What you find in your mind is what you put there.  Put good things in there.”
Ron Rathburn

This is the time to release our fears of losing our jobs, having less work, making less money than we are used to; and begin to clarify our gifts and talents, and identify and embrace our own abilities, those things we bring to the planet.  We can demonstrate how wealth is created, how we are financially secure in all ways, and how we share with other people.

This is our opportunity to shift consciousness and discover what is going on in our lives and the belief structures that affect not only us personally, but our entire economy.  We can create money, financial flow, and financial security as we shift our consciousness to another idea about how wealth is created…through desire, emotion and a neurological shift.

The world view no longer drives us as we come into our own mastery. The world is shifting and changing in such a significant ways.  Banks, commerce, trade, and small businesses are coming into a whole new way of doing businesses in the world.  There is a much larger world view, and you and I are in the process of changing our consciousness as well. We are lighting up the whole planet with The One Command.

“As human beings our greatness lies not so much in being able to re-make the world, as in being able to remake ourselves.”
Gandhi

As we are come into this larger world view, it means you and I are in the process of changing within ourselves, changing our own consciousness, to a larger world view about how we can create our money, how we can secure our peace of mind and find joy, and how we can find satisfaction in any circumstance.  Our state of mind is our greatest asset, and that greater part of our own consciousness, theta brain waves, opens our potential to take an idea and create it immediately.   We become a world unto ourselves and in harmony with all others.

Life is change, and changing life has opportunity in it.  When there is destruction in life or economy, then there is something happening in our collective thinking.  We are responsible for the reconstruction of who we are as a people and as nation.  As individuals, we begin to support ourselves and support our nation by making the shift from poverty and scarcity thinking to abundance and joy.

So, what do you like to do?  Did I hear tennis?  Well, you can earn a living in your living room by announcing to the world that you are sharing all you know about tennis.  Information and sharing are valuable commodities.  So you let people know that you are meeting tonight to talk about tennis.  You will provide a pamphlet of top tennis courts in your area, and that you are offering a tennis seminar. You are taking the whole culture of tennis and increasing their knowledge of it.

If you have a passion about anything, you have something to share.  We all want to learn new things.  How about your hobby, what if it is jewelry making?  How do you earn a living in your living room?  You bring people together to learn how to make jewelry, or charge for fixing broken jewelry.  How many of us have broken jewelry sitting in our jewelry boxes?  The idea is that whatever you know, whatever expertise you have, you can bring people together and share information and exchange money for it.

So what if you could change the world by sitting on your couch?  People are teaching ideas in their living rooms too.  From Auckland to Yuma, people are learning how to attract all they need in to their lives and are gaining the skills to attract money into their world irrespective what is happening in the ‘outside’.  People are building their lives anew and assuring that outside circumstances don’t affect them, and they are accomplishing this through The One Command.

Your skills are your paycheck, your money.
Your ability to create an idea into reality, is your wealth.

“Life isn’t about finding yourself.
Life is about creating yourself.”
–George Bernard Shaw

So whatever you want to create is open to you.  And you can spend more time on your couch teaching people, sharing ideas, demonstrating your expertise, and changing the world.

You can learn all about how to create your work, your life, your relationships through my book, The One Command, and in my Commanding Wealth Seminars. See you there!
