			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What are you going to do different today that will bring you closer to dreams you have?  I find this is a very good question to start the day with. You have probably heard the popular definition of insanity which is expecting something to change when you keep doing the same thing over and over again.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think we consciously do things over and over again. I think we fall into a pattern and some might say comfort zone. In that state there is a certain satisfaction from feeling there will be few surprises.  Most of us can easily be in routine and stay there unless we ask ourselves the question what can I do different today that will bring me closer to my dreams?</p>
<p>As soon as we begin to ask ourselves the question particularly in relation to the big dreams we are in the process of manifesting,  often our past, our conditioning, others around us begin to present all the excuses: you are too old, you are too young, you don&#8217;t have the money,  you are not talented enough, there is not enough time to do that, and so forth. Wayne Dyer has written an entire book on excuses and titled it Excuses Begone.  I love that book as it raises my awareness on all the excuses I have accumulated in my life.</p>
<p>Start today with the question. Then decide what you are going to do differently today that you feel will bring you closer to your dreams. If you are not sure, go to the silent space and ask for the answers. Then be alert for the answers to be delivered. They don&#8217;t always just pop up in your conscious mind and they may not be delivered in an email , on Facebook or in a Tweet.  Be alert. When you ask the questions, God always answers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a follow up question to the article I recently published titled <a href="http://stevereports.com/article-directory/financial-crisis-turnaround-consulting.html">Financial Crisis, Turnaround Consulting</a> where I described some of what a person can expect and steps that can be taken.  Now we go deeper:</p>
<p>&#8220;Steve; I had to do this recently; those rainy day funds or end of roll toilet papers that you store away. But what if this lasts too long? Then what?&#8221;</p>
<p>When I first read this question, I started thinking about what would be appropriate guidance. I reflected on my own experiences and the resources I have used and continue to count on to remind me of Universal Laws like Oneness, Cause and Effect, Giving and Receiving and possibly the Law of Laws &#8220;The Law of Attraction&#8221;  While running and walking today I was reminded that all of us have the answers within. We have an internal guidance system that leads us if we listen to it.</p>
<p>So my first response is that what I might do is likely to be different from what you are intended to do. There is no silver bullet here but there is a golden nugget and that golden nugget is to be grateful for all experience and follow your heart as to the next steps.</p>
<p>The second part of my repsonse is that one of the key points in the first article was developing a going forward plan. There are two types of plans with one being earning from what you would really like to be doing and two earning any way you can while you more toward what you really want to be doing.</p>
<p>Wayne Dyer in <a href="http://manifestmastermindblog.com/self-development/wayne-dyer-book-excuses-begone">Excuses Begone! </a>talks about selling soda pop bottles and mowing lawns to make money. He says that is what he still does but on a larger stage.  I think what he means is the work that he does fits into a bigger picture of how he sees himself serving. How best may I serve is a question you will hear him often reference. Neale Donald Walsch writes &#8220;the purpose of life is to bring peace, happiness and joy to everyone you touch and to yourself in that order&#8221;  I love both of those and for myself I know the more I am in a place of peace, happiness and joy myself the more I am able to achieve my purpose.</p>
<p>Some of this answer may seem &#8220;out there&#8221;. I say to you that unless you are connected with Source you are disconnected and I am not aware of any solution that brings lasting peace and joy that is arrived at from a state of separateness.</p>
<p>In summary, the way to move forward is to accept responsibility for everything in your life and create a new reality if the one you are in is not where you prefer. <a href="http://manifestmastermindblog.com/self-development/wayne-dyer-book-excuses-begone">&#8220;Excuses Begone!&#8221;</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Wayne W. Dyer&#8217;s  latest book <strong>Excuses Begone</strong> is one that I know you will enjoy. It offers many practical steps all of us can take beginning right now to accelerate the manifestation of our dreams.</p>
<p>I often use the phrase &#8220;Manifest and Live Your Dreams&#8221; when concluding a message to someone. Everything that is published here, in the free course and the membership program of <a href="http://manifestmastermind.com">Manifest Mastermind</a> is done with the intent of offering guidance on how to manifest your dreams. Wayne challenges us to stop using the crutch of excuses that we all have and get in our way of manifesting our dreams.</p>
<p>One of my former business clients is an Italian family in the Midwest.  These are wonderful people and good friends of mine. Most of the family members are large people and it is very common to hear one or more of them talk about being on a diet. One of the sons in particular has told me on numerous occasions about his latest effort to release the extra weight he is carrying. In discussing this with him, I mention beginning by imaging what he is intended to look like rather than focusing on that which he does not want.  This has come up a number of times and invariably one of his comments is &#8220;you know how our family is Steve. We are all big and food is what we do.&#8221;</p>
<p>It seems to me that one of the most common and significant excuses used is our heritage. We say our personality, our style, body type, talents, perceived deficiencies and more are what we were born with and/or taught from an early age. I have a good friend who tells me for as long as he could remember his father told him he was a genius. Learning anything he wants to has been easy for him and I many ways I consider him a genius. Fortunately,  we won&#8217;t know what he would be like if his father had always called him stupid or dumb.</p>
<p>Wayne offers compelling scientific proof that our heritage and any prior experiences we may have had that we  use as a reason for not manifesting what we want are simply excuses. Actually &#8220;It&#8217;s my family history&#8221; is excuse number 16 in his book and he lists 18 of what he views as the most common excuses. Others include:</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not my nature<br />
The rules won&#8217;t let me<br />
There will be family drama<br />
I&#8217;m too busy<br />
I&#8217;m too tired<br />
I&#8217;m not smart enough<br />
It has never happened before</p>
<p><a href="http://manifestmastermind.com">In Guidance Process 1</a> our members learn how to be clear in defining what they want to manifest without limitations. Here I suggest taking another piece of paper and begin to think of the excuses you use most frequently. Personally, I didn&#8217;t realize how many excuses I am still using until I began to contemplate Wayne&#8217;s book and did this exercise.</p>
<p>Once you acknowledge the excuses you are using then you can begin to dismiss those excuses and that is the real power of &#8220;Excuses Begone&#8221;. Wayne is very generous with openly offering the guidance from this book. Searches on YouTube and public television will give you more detail than this article. With all the complimentary material available, I encourage you to  invest  in the book. It is a great  how to eliminate excuses manual.  Look to the right and you will see an easy way to place your order. I use Amazon.com all the time as I love their prices and free shipping.</p>
<p>I conclude this introduction to &#8220;Excuses Begone&#8221;  with a number of questions Wayne asks that, for me, offer awesome guidance:</p>
<p>Your universal Source of being never thinks in terms of what is missing.   Do you?</p>
<p>It never thinks in terms of what it can&#8217;t have or do? Do you?</p>
<p>It never thinks in terms of what has never happened before. Do you?</p>
<p>It never thinks in terms of what others will think, say or do. Do you?</p>
<p>In never thinks in terms of of bad luck or the way things  have always been.  Do you?</p>
<p>In essence every time we talk or think opposite our Source that is within, we are in an excuse mentality. I am on a mission to release all excuses.  Will you join me?</p>
