Meg’s Magical Mantra: I don’t need to be more than I am; I just need to find ways to tap

“The secret of achievement is to hold a picture of a successful outcome in mind.” Henry David Thoreau For years now, I have been the biggest advocate of visualization as a major key or tool in manifesting the life I want. I saw a movie at the Smithsonian’s Albert Einstein Planetarium called The Dark Universe by Neil Tyson Degrasse (I love him!!!). The more I learn, the more material I have to use! What a visual! As the vast beauty of the heavenly bodies surrounded me in that

I am bolstered by amazing and inspiring stories.

“MEG”net Affirmation: I am bolstered by amazing and inspiring stories. Whenever doubt creeps in and threatens to hi-jack your confidence, think about this. There are so many people who can inspire you. Bolstered by this, those who share stories of vulnerability shine through. For instance, there are those underdogs who never had a chance. They never gave up and eventually showed up to lead the dance. It is the story of the individuals who defy all odds to persevere. It is th

“MEG”net Affirmation: I inspire magic.

What is a “MEG”net Affirmation? A magical “MEG”net affirmation is an uplifting statement that helps you to create a habit that manifests and attracts more positivity into your life. In simplest terms, a magnet is an object that produces a magnetic field that pulls objects to it. Like a magnet, a “MEG”net in simplest terms is a tool that you can use to level up your own extraordinary power within to attract more magnificence.

Ask, Believe, Receive

Meg’s mantra: ask, believe, receive “I’m going to be interviewed by Oprah in Maui about my books and journey someday soon and it will inspire others to live their dreams NOW!” There it’s out in the world- and … Hey do I have something wonderful for you- and the magic came to me from the author Pam Grout and her wonderful Yabba-Dabba-Doo! It’s one of her experiments in her book E-cubed. When I first read it, I loved calling God “the Dude!” Many blessings will come in 72 hours

Don’t Cheat the Process, Trust It!

Trust the Process, Don’t Cheat it! “She remembered who she was and the game changed.” Lalah Delia Point A to B Trust the process is such a challenging concept where I am not the most trusting person in the world. In fact, I question everything. Perhaps, adopting the role of a prosecutor for the nearly twenty years did not help matters. But, one great big lesson that I have learned over the last fifty years is that there is a process for everything. If you want to enjoy it, yo

Your Story Makes You Beautiful How about this for inspiration: “I get the beginning.I get the end. Then I write the middle. That’s how I do it.” Chazz Palminteri Don’t Run From Your Past I am not running from my past. I am embracing ever last bit of it. Perhaps, now is the time that you embrace yours as well. From the ups to the downs, everything that has happened in my life has lent a hand to the who I have become today. And, I am proud to share it. After traveling to New Yo

Time to Get Your SHINE Together!

Change Your Life to SHINE “Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.” Carol Burnett April is here. My sister often declares “Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit” on the first day of a new month. This is a superstition found in Britain and North America wherein a person says or repeats the words “rabbit” three times aloud upon waking to ensure good luck. Therefore, because I believe in magical rituals to put you in the right headspace, why not all of us exclaim “Rabbit, Rabbit,

Year of Magic: Feeling Good in My Own Skin

YEAR OF MAGIC 2019 “I shut my eyes in order to see.” Paul Guaguin THE ARTIST’S JOURNEY CONTINUES This week, I examine what makes me authentically me. Not a surprise, when I set out to write my blog yesterday around this subject, writer’s block has overtaken me. Too much coming at me, I thought that I was supposed to be having fun. If I create my own reality, then what the heck am I doing with this back pain that reflects unfinished business and fear of my own monsters. So, on

Be Brave: With Brave Wings You Fly!

“Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.” Wayne Dyer Be Brave! Be Brave they say! I have often wondered what that really means. Defined as ready to face and endure danger and pain, I don’t get too excited starting off on a journey with that being the undertone. So why does this inspirational rally call spurn on the warrior? “Take what I like and leave the re

Are you Ready to Choose?

Are you Ready to Choose? Choose doom and gloom, or what makes your heart zoom, Choose fear and dread, or the joy that catapults you out of bed. Choose to stay silent and mute, or perhaps it is time to speak your truth. Choose you will ready or not, some do it consciously or some by slight, Choose that which adds to the darkness or that which adds to the light. Choose to Give Love When I prepare for my presentations, I always think about what it is that I want to learn. And, g

Tugboats, Tingsha & True Friends: Good things do come in Threes!

Ever think about the Rule of Threes (Latin “omne trium perfectum)? How excited do you get when the master number 3 appears consecutively all around? And the knowing that good things come in threes gets me excited about the first and has me looking for “my” two, three, or even four more. That brings me to the following 3: Tugboats, Tingsha and True Friends. Threes and Tugboats Earlier this week, early morning, while walking my dogs along Biscayne Bay, I saw three tugboats pull

Put Your Sunglasses On, Eager for the Light at the End of the Tunnel!

“I arise full of eager-ness and energy, knowing well what achievements lie ahead of me.” Zane Grey, American Author (1872-1939) Arise Eager Each Day! I gotta stop watching the newsfeed at night. I wake up with a sort of a nasty subjective reality hangover. Feeling a bit desolate at the state of affairs, I yearn for a time when decorum and leadership were held as ideals. The best I can do to impact the world at large is focus on how I show up in my own life. I so willingly am

Before We ask What’s Going on Out There, We Need to Figure Out What is Going on Inside!

“If you could only keep quiet, clear of memories and expectations, you would be able to discern the beautiful patterns of events, its your restlessness that cause chaos.” Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj There is an unknowable mystery in this journey that we all walk. The student steps out in curiosity, knowing that the world that she sees is a mirror of the internal landscape of her mind. If the future is not written yet, when we see chaos, hatred, violence, sadness and the like, t

“Your mind is for having ideas, not holding them.” David Allen One of the best things that I did as an employee for the federal government was to apply for the ICE mentoring program. I was in my 11th year as an attorney with the agency and along with the plethora of emails, one popped up in my inbox that was inconspicuous as to the gold it would hold for me. Having set out at this point in my career to open up my world to possibilities beyond what the lack of leadership in

3 keys to a successful transition: Follow your calling, Get curious, and BE of service to others!

“Life is one big transition.” Will Stargell, American professional baseball player Tales of personal transformation are the stuff of story-telling, legends, and even fairy tales. We gain inspiration from the folklore of the ugly duckling who believed in herself and became the beautiful swan; the down on her luck creative who persisted over and over again despite overwhelming odds until the big break came and success was hers; and the girl who chose to leave a life of shoulds

Ever stop to really consider why you are so angry anyway?

“Let us not look back in anger, or forward in fear, but around in awareness.” James Thurber There are times when we willingly get stuck in a loop of misery. And truth be told, without awareness, these times can be a living hell if you feel like you are falling into the abyss of these depleting emotions without a spiritual parachute to help soften the landing. Let’s be clear, as human beings, these times come with the territory. Events unfold that we are uncomfortable with and
