The Actions - 7Steps To Powerful Change

Episode 7: The Way of Letting Go and Forgiveness is to March Forth

Today is the day to march forth into something that is beautiful whether it's something that you need to change or a new beginning for you in some way. In order to heal the mindset, we have to learn to giving grace and offering forgiveness. You know, It's extremely difficult to forgive and let go because a lot of times we feel we didn't do anything to deserve it. We carry it onto ourselves like a baggage, and we expect that person to apologize, or we couldn't move forward or find some sort of closure. How do we get closure on things?We have to understanding forgiveness. It takes so much energy to carry bitterness and hate around. It will wipe you out. It will mentally weigh you down. Giving forgiveness is not so much for other person as it is for me. It's not saying that I am agreeing of what you did to me. I'll release you from what you did to me. It is saying that I love myself enough to know that I didn't deserve it, so I'm going to forgive you, to move on and realize that I may never get the closure that I think I had deserved, but I know in my mind I don't deserve to carry that hate around, and I don't deserve to carry that bitterness around anymore. There are people in this life that’s really hard to love, and there are times that people do wrong to others, and we would just assume not have them in our lives. There are people who had done some really really really bad things to us and we kind of put them in that enemy category. I was listening to a pastor this weekend and as a woman of faith, I am commanded to love my enemy. Sometimes, it's hard to understand how to love somebody that you don't consider lovable. As the pastor explained, command to love our enemy doesn't mean you go up, and hug them, and forgive them and bring them into our home and feed them dinner, and treat them like royalty. It means to love our enemy is to let go without the need for retaliation or revenge and give it to a higher court.Basically, I’m saying that I'm just going to let you go. I will forgive you for what you have done. I have peace in my heart, and I can move on without the need to feel hate. I have to set boundary to cut the toxic people in my life by saying I love you. I let you go. I don't seek ill-will for you. I didn't need revenge, and I didn't need retaliation. I had found peace in my heart and in my mind. I've been able to get up each day and not have to carry that burden around. So, I encourage to today to unpoison your mind and your life by letting go and forgive everyone in your life who'd done you wrong.I hope you’ll have a fantastic week. I hope you find some little nuggets in this podcast today that will help you to march forth. Margaret and I are looking forward to talk and see you next week.

Episose 6: 3 Things I Learned From a Book Mirror Work by Louise Hay

 
First, you need to understand what mindset really is. It’s a word we hear all the time, yet do we really know what it is?
In a word, MINDSET is your frame of mind. Your mindset is your collection of thought habits and beliefs that shape your ways of thinking and being. And your thought habits affect how you think, what you feel, and what you do. 
So, what are the 3 things that I learned from a book Mirror Work by Louise Hay?

Episode 4: 3 Things You Should Do Before Go To and Get Out Of Bed To Wake Up Happier

I. Many people have a hard time letting their thoughts go at the end of the day, whether you’re hung up on the rest of your to-do list or a fight you had with a friend. There are simply 3 Things You Should Before You Go To Bed To Wake Up Happier.— One of the first things I do before go to bed is to write down your to-dos or reminders. By writing things down before going to bed, since now they’re somewhere and won’t be forgotten, you give your brain permission to stop thinking about them.—Second, take a few minutes to express gratitude for the day. Think back on your day and find one or more things you are grateful for. The thing that made your day more enjoyable, or that you are happy to have in your life regularly. By expressing what you’re grateful for before going to bed focuses your brain on positive thoughts and makes it harder for it to get stuck in the long-list-of-things-that-stress-me-out-cycle.—The third is meditating. Meditation helps you slow everything down and put their lives and the people in their lives into perspective. **Nevertheless, if you cannot meditate, you can read a book you enjoy, do some yoga stretches, anything that makes you feel really good. It doesn’t have to be complicated or take a lot of time, just make it something that nourishes you.II. When morning comes, and before you get out of bed, there are 3 Things You Should Do Before To Wake Up Happier—The first things when waking up in the morning before getting out of bed and before doing anything else, take a few minutes again to express your gratitude for being able to wake up, for the wonderful loving and support of family and friends. Be grateful for all the things you have. Gratitude is the gateway to happiness. Great things will begin to happen. Gratitude begets gratitude. It’s just like a yawn; try being around one without it catching on.—The second is to go over and read your to-do list, or reminders. Set your intentions for the day —The third is meditation. Meditation helps you slow everything down and put you and the people in your lives into perspective. *** This is mainly because your morning routine is going to conveniently set the tone and the rhythm of the entire day. Needless to say, you would take far better decisions when it comes to it as you are relaxed and calm.Keep in mind, though, that meditation could be quite daunting for beginners. So, at a start, it might be a good idea to focus on deeper and slower breathing techniques even if you had to do it for just five minutes after you wake up right before you get busy.Now, there are a few different types of meditation that you could potentially practice. For me, the best thing to consider is to go with mindfulness meditation. This is when you just pay attention to your body and you cut yourself out from the rest of the world. You might become a lot more aware of the surrounding environment, the sound of your breath or the floor underneath you, for instance. This is going to allow you to experience a calm that you’ve never experienced before.

Episode 3: Interviewing Margaret Tran How She Became An Author

I was born during the Vietnam War, and I spent my early childhood in Vietnam as a mixed race outcast. Although, I didn't have blue eyes or blond hair, but I had Caucasian nose and eyes as well as freckles, the Vietnamese people called me a "half-breed." Throughout my adolescence, I was in fear of being made fun of, being called names, and beaten up from home to school and school to home. In 1985, my adoptive mother and I came to the United States. we couldn’t speak a word of English , but growing up in America, I was fortunate to make many wonderful friends and received an education that opened many doors for me. After graduated high school, I joined the Army for a year then got introduced into the beauty industry and worked my way around the states for over 25 years, eventually visiting many states from west to east coast. Now, I finally settled in Frederick, Maryland with my husband of 19 years, two children, a girl and a boy and four furry babies.-After my mother's death in 2012, my world turned upside down and I fell into depression. All the pain, grief and sorrow just about made me lose my mind, I even thought of committed suicide. I turned my home into a prison cell, and I turned my family into a living hell. I completely broke down physically, mentally, and spiritually. For sure, life and family were hard for four years.-My depression led me to realize I needed to create a new me and discover the path to a new life. The inner healing journey helped me recover so that I could be more present for my family, and it had given me the opportunity to look into my inner self, aware of my conscious, emotions, actions and how to use that pain as a source of fuel to love more, to give more, and to feel more of the greatness in life. Surviving the trauma offered me the chance to rebuild my life and implement the lessons I had learned. Only by experiencing my own unique journey of healing, it had inspired me to become a writer in hope to help and guide people so they can brake bad habits, make changes, commitment and embrace happiness in their life.I am pleased to announce my book — The ACTIONS.
