Why Let Reality Wreck Your Day? ©
by Sharon Warren, M.A.

     Last night we had numerous power outages. Duaine and I were just settling in to watch a video when the power went off. There were outages in Mesa, Phoenix, Scottsdale, and now Fountain Hills. I had an “ah hah” on how the word outage is only one letter short of outrage, which means disorder versus divine order. When we are outraged, things become tense and “hot.” Anger is only one letter short of danger, which gives a clue that things are “heating up.” When this power outage occurred, it was still very hot outside at 6:30 PM - probably 109 degrees. Without air conditioning or fans running, the inside of our house was getting mighty warm.

     Funny how often we take our modern conveniences for granted. I got flashlights so we could read. When the balance of power was “upset” by this outage, we had a choice to remain inwardly cool until “outer power” returned. Rather than be “upset,” we can hit our internal “reset” switch for a fresh start.

    Last week when Duaine was using the electric hedge trimmer outside, it suddenly quit working. He came inside to hit the “reset” switch on the wall receptacle, which is called a GFI, an acronym for Ground Fault Interceptor. That means that the power has shorted out or been intercepted. It alerts you that power is not being properly distributed and could potentially be on hazardous overload (which can happen when one is also 'outraged'). Usually when this happens, all you have to do is hit the reset button. So, a power outage actually serves a higher purpose by not overloading the circuitry.

     As humans, we also go on overload. Our inner GFI switch alerts us through our negative feelings loop (anger, frustration, lack, pain, dissatisfaction, jealously, etc.). Negative emotion is always present as an indicator when you are in resistance (pushing against something). It's a warning signal because something has tripped your triggers.

     Our internal GFI reset switch can be immediately upgraded to Get Focused Intentions. We get our “shift” together by making a new decision. You then generate, radiate and pulsate new emotional tones that feel good to 'up' your vibration. Many years ago I had bumper stickers made that said, “Up Your Consciousness.” As you goose up your imagination and focus on your heart's desires and intentions, you attract a fresh new vibrational signal of well being. The Universe then conspires on your behalf as you become an “upgraded” human magnet by having clarity and rejoicing in new choices with a high, fast, pure vibration.

    Your emotions - positive or negative - are always the conduits that are being turned “on” or “off” to Source by how you are flowing your energy. Are you a conductor or a resistor? A creator or reactor? Intent is the most powerful tool you have available. As we pray it out, say it out and lay it out to the Universe, you are naming and claiming your highest outcomes. Divine currents of energy and connection are always available when you attune and plug in. When you “speak the word” (your genesis of verbal intentions) an even more powerful communication and vibration is being broadcast. It amplifies your frequency and surges new power when you verbalize your heart's desire out loud. Ask, then allow and receive. What comes out of our mouth comes into our world.

     Recently, my friend, Ann gave me post-it-notes that said, “Why let reality wreck your day!” In my book, Magnetizing Your Heart's Desire, a similar thought is shared, “Never - ever pay attention to reality unless it is perfect in every way.” To balance yourself energetically and get back in the flow of your stream of well being, emotionally and deliberately hit your “reset switch”! That process will include moving from “if only” and the blame game of nursing, cursing and rehearsing your problems to recognizing you are reacting and can make a fresh start from your heart. Call a good friend who may help you upgrade energetically. Or, call upon your angels and register your “complaints” (what you don't want) and ask for creative assistance to up your consciousness (think about what you do want and feed that energy). Make a new decision with a fresh vision of being in the state of “I create.” Ignore current reality while new seeds and intentions are planted. Honor yourself as the delicious Deliberate Creator you are. In your imagination, know your blessings are already here. Don't tell the Universe “how” - just know they are being divinely timed. Then consider it done.

      You will always know when you have hit the GFI reset switch and transformed energy by the way you feel. Find the vibration that feels good! Choose feelings that empower you and your life. Joy and humor are your guaranteed connections - start laughing more! Give reality a rest and be in appreciation and gratitude for the infinite blessings that come your way every day. And, be sure to take time to play!

      As you plant your dreams, miracles will grow.
