SHINING BRIGHT ON YOU

What do you do when you dreams are coming true?

8/16/2018

"Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it." What an amazing saying and yet it can be quite scary.
I know that there are many of us out there right now starting a new life. We are writing the next book of our life...it's not a chapter, it's a new book. I have found that I have been longing for the life that I have right now for quite some time. I wanted my own place, and to start living my life on my own. I realized lately how much I have been truly longing for my independence. When I decided to divorce my husband, it had been a very long lengthy process; but when I finally decided it took two months. I have been thinking and processing what I have created these past couple of weeks.
First, I have realized all the karma I had cleaned up with my now ex, that I was rewarded the freedom I had been looking for and so deserved. We have lived and will continue to live many life times on our planet Earth...it's like an amusement park for experiences. When we continue to comeback we are learning, growing, along with cleaning up messes so we can keep moving forward. I have realized that my time was complete and now I get to be rewarded. Living on my own has been amazing thus far, it has been a liberating experience that keeps on surprising me.

There are days when I can't believe I am living this life, it's like I am waiting for the floor to fall out from underneath me and this will all be gone. Then I quickly stop myself from thinking these thoughts, because I am learning what I think about I bring about.  Sometimes, I am finding myself creating the chaos because that is what I have been used too. When you start to get what you want, which is no more chaos, I don't always know how to be without it. I have to constantly remind myself to stop.

Second, I also realized how powerful I am at manifesting. I have literally manifested everything that is happening in my life right now. I am receiving what I am asking for so quickly, it can be mind boggling; however, I am open and ready. I made a decision to divorce in April, May I filed, June I was in my own place, July I was divorced. Not only that, I was able to create my new identity.

It's as if I walked right into the next phase of my life and now it's go time. Everything that I am creating right now is coming to me so fast, and I know that I have all the tools in my box to be with all of it. If there was more for me to learn or do right now, I would not be where I am at this moment.

This is the part where I tell my clients, keep track of the wins. When you are experiencing the win, you have to breathe it in, enjoying it, realize you deserve it. Now I have to take my own advice; I am experiencing a win and now is my time.

I encourage you to do the same; look at your life, where do you want to be? You can make it all happen for yourself, you just have to say YES and give yourself permission.

We can do anything we want in our life. So, let's talk about You creating YOUR LIFE.

amazing new beginnings at 50!!!

7/17/2018

Good Moring, Good Afternoon and Good Evening...no matter where you are in the world I want to welcome you in to today's thoughts.

I just turned 50 and I am feeling amazing. I am realizing more and more that we have our whole lives ahead of us to do whatever we want. We oversee our own lives and no one else. No matter what it is that we want to do, we can do it. The only person that truly stops us is US.

Look at who you are in your life; do you like who you see, or do you wish you could be doing something else? I have always had a burning desire to help people in ways that would immediately leave them feeling great about themselves. It is something that I have always loved doing. It makes me feel so much love for myself when I can do that for another.

What is it that you have always wanted to do? When you think about your desires, do you have a burning desire, a desire that gets you so excited you are ready to jump out of your skin, or if that is what you did for a living you could never be unhappy? Think about how you wake up in the morning and how you go to bed at night...are you grateful and ready to go, or are you dreading and wishing your life was different?

When I started this series of New Beginnings, I was not sure where this would take me. I found myself writing and creating as I have been moving along. I am creating a whole new life for myself at the age of 50. I feel like my life is just beginning. I spent so much time learning and growing, experiencing and forgiving through love, that now I can go in the direction I was meant to go. I wake up grateful and energized ready to go. I go to bed at night feeling fulfilled and excited about all the tomorrows I get to experience.

My life right now is happening in ways that I never thought was possible. As I open my heart and my mind the opportunities are all there jumping into my hands. It's as if my birthday is being celebrated every day, I have never been happier as I am right now.

The wonderful souls I surround myself with daily is what is making my life work. I have so many extraordinary people around me adding to my life, teaching me as I teach them, loving me as I love them and helping me grow to the wonderful woman I am today.

I invite you to start looking at your life as an amazing adventure; no matter what is happening around you. Look at your life with wonderful opportunities to grow along with being a better version of yourself. You will see your life falling into place no matter how many obstacles and challenges you are around. The more you accept and grow, the faster you are headed towards love, joy, and peace.

Have an amazing day my friends.

Love Just Rita

New Beginnings...Expect Miracles

6/22/2018

Do you ever look around your life and think, wow my life is awesome? Or do you look around and say, my life is filled with crap?

When we are starting something new or even just moving along in our lives, things happen. Sometimes our perception of what is really going on in our lives does not match what we think is going on. Think about everything that has ever happened to you; what is the perception you have about the events? Is your opinion good or bad, is it happy or sad, does it make you laugh or cry? Think about it for a few minutes...

When we start to look at our life we always go for the negative, we always feel like everything is against us, and life just sucks. What do you think would happen if you started to look at the whole picture of what is really going on? When you can look at a bigger picture, you are able to see the lesson or the blessings in all of it. You will start to see your life amazing and you would be grateful for all of it.

As I have gotten older and done a lot of self-development along with getting Spiritually connected; I now see my life as miraculous. My journey thus far has been filled with so many wonderful experiences...however, I have not really been able to appreciate it all until the past few years.

I have learned that in everything I have ever gone through, it was an amazing opportunity to learn and grow. Everything I have ever gone through. My life has been a massive roller coaster ride that I have been stretched and pulled, turned inside out, emotions ran high, and I had to look at the bigger picture every time to see that everything has always been for my highest good.

Look at yourself, who are you because of every experience in your life? How are you in life with other people because of everything you have learned? Who is looking up to you because how you are in life no matter the situation?

These are amazing questions to ask yourself; then you can start to see the miracles in your life. Every single situation, event, experience you have ever been through has always been for your highest good. There is nothing that you have gone through that hasn't made you the person you are today. Now saying that, how do you perceive yourself in life? Are you kind, loving and helpful or are you angry, bitter and miserable. You always get to choose.

This blog is a miracle. I allow you to look at your own self and you get to decide how you are going to be in life. Isn't that amazing???

Have an amazing day.

new beginnings...be grateful for everything!

5/17/2018

Have you ever noticed when you close the door to someone or something, and your new beginning either takes a long time to get started or it never really gets off the ground and leaves you feeling like a failure? We have all experienced that in one way or another; today let's talk about why that happens.
The main reason why we can't move forward is gratitude is missing. What????? How can I be grateful for what I just went through? Great question, right? We have all learned through and taught through a situation we have ended. Everything we have ever been through or going through has lessons and blessing in all of it. If we are not grateful for the experience we have missed the lesson, therefore we miss the blessings. Think about it for a minute......
We must look at every experience through eyes of gratitude; the situation along with the person involved. When I look at all the people who have been in my life through the toughest of times, I must look at the lesson, so I can see the blessing. This maybe a hard pill to swallow if you are not ready to forgive or see the perspective. Every person who has participated in my life has brought me closer to who I am today. Every person!!! If I did not go through what I did with each person, I would not be writing, blogging, having a radio show, or doing the readings I do for people. I would not have the knowledge to help others.
This is very important to understand. Many of you have gone through great loss and tragedy, I get it, I have too...however, we need to see the lessons to receive the blessings. We need to understand how this world is all about learning, growing, sharing and loving no matter what. When you can start to appreciate your experiences everything else falls right in place.

new beginnings...acknowledge your pain

5/7/2018

0 Comments

Whenever you are starting something new, you are saying good bye to something; old behaviors, relationships, work, home, etc. As we grow, we learn a lot; sometimes what we learn is not the most exciting, wonderful or even safe things to learn, but we keep moving forward. We will push down and burry old feelings, memories, experiences, whatever we don't want to deal with; but it always surfaces one way or another until we acknowledge it.
I have come across some of my friends dealing with these types of issues that I have been able to help them with, because I too have had to deal with my stuff. The Stuff always seems to rear its head when you least expect it; someone comes for a visit, you find something out about someone, you hear a comment or even just a sound that will put you in a tail spin...Suddenly you have turned into Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
When I got married for the 2nd time, I thought everything was going to be perfect. I finally had everything I was looking for; a man who understood, someone who I can share everything with, a father for my child who he could look up too. It was, I thought, a match made from heaven. Within a few short months my world as I knew it would come crashing down. Everything I had ever stuffed down beneath my toes would come erupting up. I was dealing with stuff that I never thought I would have to think about again. My 2nd marriage took quite a hit when I had to dive in my pain and realize that it was not being hidden any longer. I had to do a lot of work on myself, so I could participate in my life and in my marriage.
I find, if you don't deal with your demons, your demons will come find you, so you do deal with them. You can't escape, you are meant to realize everything has happened for your highest good; that may be a tough pill to swallow, but you need to deal with it. I was a victim of my life for a long time until I decided to deal with my demons and realize who I am today is because of what I had gone through. I look back at my life and see a strong little girl who kept on fighting for herself, I also see a woman who is an inspiration to many because of what I went through. I am no different from anyone around me, I just dealt with my pain.

Tune in Thursday at Noon to hear the live broadcast on this topic.

new Beginnings...Are you secure?

5/3/2018

0 Comments

Everything we do always has an end and a new beginning; we are always in the moment of change and sometimes not being secure will stop us or slow us down. Have you ever felt like you knew you could do something but not knowing exactly how it will turn out will most times leave you feeling insecure?
Today's topic is all about security and looking at insecure in a different perspective.
What does security mean to you? For me, it means that no matter what happens I know I will always be good; even though my relationship is not where I would like it, I have security in knowing I have a roof over my head, food on the table, clothes on my back, car to drive and so on... What does insecure meant to you? For me, insecure means that no matter what is happening, no matter the opportunities in front of me, no matter the knowledge I possess I am always waiting for the shoe to drop or the floor to fall out from underneath me.
Insecure or insecurity are two words that plague most people; I find myself fluctuating back in forth what I know I can do, and what if I can't do it. Sometimes I understand why people stay in situations that are not good for them; sometimes any kind of security is better than no security. However, when do we realize that to be secure we need to be secure in ourselves...
When we are secure in ourselves and know that no matter what happens we will determine how secure we truly are. Let's dive into this conversation and change the way we think about our situations and become secure in our own decisions.
We can only change our mindset, no one else. If we are in partnerships with people who want us to depend on them, we become insecure about our own self. We have given our power to someone else and forget we can do whatever we want.
Let's be SECURE IN WHO WE ARE!!!

New Beginnings...Happiness

4/26/2018

How amazing is it to realize that we are the ones who can only make ourselves happy? Most times we will look towards things and people to make us happy only to find it doesn't. Have you ever felt hopeless searching for happiness?

We have all done it; searching high and low only to find it is in us to be happy. We are always paying attention to what other people have or say to validate what is happiness. We will drive ourselves crazy trying to keep up with others thinking that is the way to be happy. However, you can have all the possessions and money in the world and still be unhappy. Look at the celebrities that are in rehab or killing themselves because they are so miserable.

We are bombarded by so many things in our lives; commercials telling us what we need constantly, products that are always upgrading and we can't live without it, cars that can practically drive themselves....it goes on and on and we feel inadequate.  We tend to feel like something is wrong with us if we are being told what we need, and we can't get it. We are always left chasing our tails.

Take a moment and look around you, what do you really need and really want; you will find conflict between your needs and wants, that is what will send you in a spiral of thinking you are not happy. Think about it...there is something you really want but is not practical for you right now, are you happy or sad...most would say sad. Why? That is a great question, we always want what we don't have, but when we get it we are still not happy. You may feel a sense of accomplishment, but you are not happy. You then may become remorseful because you spent money that could have been allocated somewhere else.

Isn't it amazing how if we just stay connected to who we truly are, we then will find happiness. We are sad because we are always chasing out tails; technically we don't need much to make us happy, but when we are always looking at what others have that's when we start to loath and compete with ourselves.

Start to look within who you are, give yourself what you need and stop trying to get what others have. That is when you will be truly happy and be able to live the life that you so desire.

New Beginnings...Appreciate

4/19/2018

0 Comments

Good morning my friends...I hope you are all finding yourselves well. I came across this inspiration today and I though how appropriate for our lives.

How many of us always feel like everything is happening to us instead of for us? How many of us think that people are always against us instead of with us? If you think about all your events that have occurred in your life; you look at different perspectives, you will see everything has worked out for your highest good.

We always grow from every experience we have. We are constantly taking steps forward; even when someone says, "one step forward, two steps backwards." That is not true, we are always moving forward. Sometimes when we take steps forward we need to learn and readjust; that seems like steps backwards, but it is not. We are always learning and growing, some may be slower than others but we all grow.

Start to learn to appreciate everyone who has been in your life, we have learned from everyone. We are all teachers and students, once we realize that we can "Thank you for your part in my journey." How cool is that.

Have an amazing day my friends...

New Beginnings...Letting GO.

4/2/2018

Happy Spring to everyone...April is in full swing and we are saying good bye to Old Man Winter.

It just dawned on me how fitting this quote is too my opening sentence...As we shed the old us, we are shedding the winter...we start a new...not sure what we are in-store for; but we are on our way to new beginnings.

How awesome is that to think about? This inspiration is very telling and perfect for this time of year. As the winter leaves, we will get some bitter cold days, maybe some snow, bad storms...but the spring always comes. The birds come back, flowers start to poke out from the ground, the trees start to bud, all signs point to new beginnings.

As we too emerge from our cocoons we are not the same person. We go through a lot during the winter months that many people will not know about. We may be different in ways that our friends and family don't understand. We may come off weird or strange...different for sure and that can be quite scary. We always worry about what others will think and say; so, we try to hold on to what we know, when deep down we know we are different.

We spend a lot of time trying to please and fit in; when really, we should be more worried about honoring who we are and allowing our new self to emerge. When we start to honor who we are, friends may start to fall off, some family may no longer participate with us...this is something that keeps people where they are. This is one of the most painful processes of transforming our true selves.

Do you know the saying "If you can count on one hand your true friends, you are lucky"? When you really start to think about that phrase, you start to really look at your life and look at who is for your highest good. We start to see people and things differently. Our plan may no longer be the plan when we start to realize it is not for hour highest good. These realizations can be quite scary. However, when you see it's more painful to be where you are at, rather than where you are going...you may have some peace to make those changes.

I look at myself and my life; I know I am going through a lot of changes and quite frankly it is terrifying. One thing I am grateful for is to have people around me who are for my highest good; who will listen to me when I am down and be grateful to be around me when I am up. I am grateful for my son who is not afraid to tell me what I need to hear, and for myself to listen to what he has to say rather than shutting him down. I am grateful to be in this immersion of self and creating a new life. Letting go of what you know and what may be comfortable even though you don't like it, it's quite telling of whom you are becoming.

Allow yourself to let go of the old and create a new self, and new you...no matter what it is you are doing, give yourself the permission to grow and be your true extraordinary self.

New Beginnings...Choosing Me!

What an amazing video...Muniba Mazari is a woman who has been through great challenge and chose herself. She wrote down every fear and went through each one, knowing there is always another way. As I was watching her video, I was inspired to write down my fears and know that no matter what I can do anything.

I encourage you to watch this video...write down your fears and really look at it. Look to see if it is something that you can conquer...I know you will see things differently and you will move forward.

We have our own lives and journey's; we can do anything, failure is nothing but your first attempt and now you have learned to do it a different way.

Have an amazing day my friends.
