Oops it’s on us again, another year to get it right.
The last two months of 2013 saw us going through a lot of changes. Some life altering and some were the usual practices we have as a family. My attempt to evaluate and declutter is simply a natural mechanism for me now. I have been practicing this for so long. Even if I unconsciously forget what month it is I will find myself making a list of the areas in the house to sort out, prepping new goals that are coming into my awareness and a burst of energy to clean from top to bottom.
For many this new year, new you concept is just that a concept. Everyone seems to be on the bandwagon of change and commitment but then a few weeks in the year and the excitement is all gone. The commitments are all forgotten dreams and desires vaporize like a pipe dream. However, this is a natural phase as what humankind is attempting to do is create a new habit and this is quite a challenging task. Creating new habits are comparable to rewriting what’s written in your subsconscious. All that stuff that is presently there has been written over time, ions of life and is second nature to you.

We should always be in tune with our intentions and motive in giving.
As the Spirit in which we extend ourselves will dictate how we dance or communicate with the Universe. Often times we get caught up in the act of giving because we are told it is the sure way to receive or giving will magically open the flood gates of wealth.
Yes, it appears to be magic in demonstration but it really is just the natural out working of the law. The law being Universal law. The Universe does not understand the concept of not being itself. It doesn’t choose to hold off and then to give. It does not compute mentally or otherwise the way humans does. It just simply be. They are those who will consistently give and not experience any differences in their lives. This is so because their intentions and motives are not pure. It is not in the Spirit of simply giving just because that is who they are but perhaps they are giving with arterial motives.

Listening to the still small voice within is an art form.
It requires us to sit still not just in body but also in mind. How does that work you might ask, when the mind is never still or quiet – practice have moments of pause is the clue. Glimpse or moments of clarity can support you in the practice.
One of the principles we expose at Charles & Shakira Unlimited is that your life is always an outward picture of what is happening on the inside. Is it possible to look out and get a clue on were you are heading? Absolutely!! Are you experiencing peace and order? Or does your life look like confusion and chaos?

It is truly amazing to step back and look at how busy our lives have become.
Sometimes the more I try to clear the plate so to speak is the more things get added on – it like magic (smiling). There is that constant need to be engaged and entertained to keep the caffeine pot brewing for fear that sleep will cause you to miss out on something.
As you probably notice the successful companies of our time are those that are technologically advance. They are getting the attention of consumers in “real-time”. Apps for smart phones are coming on the scene at a rapid pace, all the appliances in our homes are being synced. People are generally becoming more and more anxious about being on the cutting edge and not being left behind.

“Healthy people are grateful for life’s simple treasures. Be H.I.P. Express gratitude to those you treasure.” ~ Coach T
The letter H in the H.I.P. acronym represents healthy. Most people associate the word healthy immediately with food, diet and exercise. However, embedded in the H.I.P. movement is the conscious association of having and maintaining a healthy mind and consciousness so as to drive the physical expression (your body and affairs) in the right gears.
Healthy people consciously choose to practice making higher choices. They make it a practice to live from the calling of their souls and the insights that are given from their internal wisdom. They understand that watering the seeds of consciousness occurs with tools of prayer, meditation, silence, visioning and other methods. They wake up to the truth that living from this place of existence allows them to be a beneficial presence in the world.

“H.I.P. people have release control of being the general manager of the universe. They trust that there’s a divine plan unfolding for the best for everyone. Be H.I.P. Trust that the universe has got your back.” ~ Coach T
We are not responsible for everyone in this world. In fact a lot of times we even have no control over our own lives. I believe that there is something much greater ruling this world, something that cannot be described in words and cannot be fully understood. Some call it God, the universe, life.
We do not have to take on everything that is going on in the world as our responsibility to fix. Things happen to us and to those that we love and care about, but still we do not have to make it our business to attempt to fix everything that happens. Some things we cannot fix, we are simply going to experience them – both good and bad. Taking it upon ourselves to carry all of the weight for everyone we care about is not healthy. We cannot carry the burdens of other people and we cannot fix them either.

“Healthy, Inspiring, Purposeful people let their life be a mission, not an intermission, they know that they are here for a purpose and on purpose. Be H.I.P. Trust and discover your mission, then say yes to it and no to everything else.” ~ Coach T
I recently heard this song by Karen Drucker: I’ve spent my life with a disease to please, I say yes, when I really meant to. But now I’ve seen the light and I feel the time has come for me to say, there is something I need to know: “No is my new yes.
When I say no I’m saying yes to me. When I say no, I set myself free. I’ve been living my life, living to please, full of effort and struggle and not enough ease. I’ve been a such a good boy, but now I know when I’m untrue to me, I lose a piece of my soul. No is my new yes. I thought to be nice. I had to be nice doing what others wanted, but I am paying the price.

“Healthy people know that you can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep reading the last one. Be H.I.P. Prepare now to turn the next page.” ~ Coach T
Sometimes you have to just put both feet on the ground firmly and keeping moving forward. The same old repeated pattern of thoughts, reactions, behavior, attitudes and choices will only get you the same. It is absolutely impossible to keep going through the same door to the bedroom and thinking you’re heading into the kitchen. Clue: INSANITY
It is insane to keep taking the flight to Houston while you’re trying to head to New York. The good news is that there is support all around you to help wake you up from the nightmare. Yes! beyond the surrounding or appearances right now there is help…. Your life is before you and in this now moment here is your ticket to waking up… Ready? Turn the page!

“H.I.P. people know that trust is relationship and relationship is trust. No relationship, no trust. Trust is the glue that holds relationships together and allow it to evolve. Be H.I.P. Cultivate trust in your relationships.” ~ Coach T
Trust is the essential precondition upon which all successful relationships depends, upon which all real success in life depends. Without it nothing can be built or maintained. Yet, increasingly we find ourselves in a world where our methods to address distrust are insufficient.
As with most subject matters of the heart there are levels and levels upon which trust can be addressed. I am going to share two that may appear simple but are powerful if practiced consistently. They are in no particular order.
