QUESTIONS THAT TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE - DAY 3
QUESTIONS THAT WORK!
To move forward let us start with questioning where have we been – and why do questions work?
Ask yourself. Am I Present? Awaken the Observer and Come Present to Now.
The good news is the moment you ask the question, Am I Present? The Observer is awakened to determine if in fact you are Present.
The Art of the Breath and Light Awaits You,
The Transformation Team
With great gratitude, appreciation and praise we welcome you to the creation space of self love, courage, inspiration and the peace of mind that comes from gently balancing and lowering your brainwaves.
Listening to this THETA Hertz Brain Wavewave will assist you in creating a transformative meditative state, that will quiet your mind, relieve tension in your body, soothe your spirit, and help you remember how good it feels to be fully present in this beautiful moment of now.
Put on your head phones and listen to this THETA brainwave as you study the following lesson.
Why is this? How can we use questions to get more out of life? When we make a statement, we primarily use our logical, rational, left brain.
Statements affirm what is. Questions, on the other hand, invoke more of our intuitive, creative right brain. They challenge us to discover what might be. While statements are static, questions lead us into unexplored territory. They open doors to new possibilities!
Take just one moment to do this simple exercise. Say to yourself, "I don't have enough time to get everything done." Experience how you feel after you make that statement.
Now say to yourself, "How can I give more time to what's important to me?" Again, tune in to your feelings. Don't you feel stronger and more open, powerful and energized by the question?
And here's the really good news. Your question mobilizes the immense power of your subconscious mind. Your subconscious acts on whatever your conscious mind tells it. If you say you don't have enough time, your subconscious will ensure that you won't. If you ask a question, your subconscious will always answer it, drawing from unlimited resources and wisdom that are not directly available to your conscious mind.
Now ask your subconscious mind: What is the best use of my time right now?
How did that feel?
If you want to clear those problems in your life, remember to ask constructive, open-ended questions that cannot be answered with a simple yes or no. A great question to use often is, "What can I learn from this situation?"
Many people use positive affirmations. Why not change the words around to form empowering questions that draw out creative helpful ideas and solutions. Change your critical self-talk to empowering question asking. So think more on questions and not answers. If you focus on a wrong answer, you have to start over again. If you focus on a question, there are still options left and your mind is still working. Once you have asked a question, you then need to listen and watch for the answer. Be alert for the answers can be subtle and indirect. They can also come from anywhere at any time. The key is to be aware. To watch and listen, and be open to new possibilities.
So talk to yourself with lots of expansive, empowering questions. Open up to your own power to actively create with consciousness. Question your life!

Setting and Meeting Goals or Ideals Leads to Happiness
People stuck on a downward spiral of unhappiness may be able to alter their course by simply doing "what you believe in, what interests you, or both.
Setting goals that fit with your personality -- self-concordant goals -- and resisting the temptation to do something you feel you ought to, is key in the pursuit of happiness.
The idea that people can make themselves permanently happier is controversial, but this new data suggests that this is so. People can make themselves happier, by doing very well at self-concordant goals.
Investigators found that students who set self-concordant (congruent) goals were more likely to achieve their goals and in doing so, heighten their sense of wellbeing (i.e., happiness).
Goals listed by the undergraduate students included getting good grades, getting involved in campus organizations, and not gaining weight.
So, one can't 'spiral upwards' indefinitely, but one can get oneself to a higher level of happiness, and then keep oneself there, if one selects appropriate goals and then continues to do well at them.
Yet, the researcher acknowledged the challenges involved in setting self-concordant goals. We assume that it is a difficult skill to perceive yourself well enough to know what is best for you to do -- there are a lot of things that get in the way of that.
The researchers offered the following advice: Stand back and take stock and figure out what's really most important to you and start going after that. Stop wasting time doing what you think you're supposed to -- that can start this whole positive process.
Here are 20 things that you can start doing now to make you happy. Check off the ones that you will start practicing now!

Daily Fieldwork
Half a Dozen Things To Do Daily
1) Make a decision to commit to discovering your greatness. When one commits, then all providence moves in your favor. "I choose to commit, explore, and to know that I am an evolving, unlimited Being."
2) Meditate daily and listen to brainwave meditations. Set up a schedule and stick to it.
3) Read and complete each day of the 21 day program. Read 10 pages of a supporting eBook for that day.
4) Find time to be IN silence often, and at least weekly. (No TV, Internet, radio, telephone, or conversations of any kind) while observing a practice of non-judgment. Really try to have NO preferences or opinions and say cancel, cancel, cancel to any inner contrary conversations.
5) Daily review the work you've done in this course. Check your email, review your journal. Begin each day, after your meditation, by writing down your top 10 positive intentions again.
6) Spend time daily thinking, fantasizing, and seeing yourself having already accomplished these goals in this eternal moment of NOW.
