One of my favorite authors is Brian Tracy.

Though he writes mostly sales and business books, he has a lot of wisdom for indigo adults and empaths.

One of Tracy’s books that I continue to return to Goals.

The entire book is devoted to manifesting, but I think that that’s a bit “woo-woo” for the business types that typically pick up books by Tracy, so he refers to everything in the context of goals.

One of the exercises in the book involves writing your goals every day.

Yes, I know, sounds tedious… but think about it.

If they are goals that truly inspire you, the process, once you sit down and do it, should evoke ideas and inspire you. Connecting with the goals at this deep a level should connect you to the being you desire to becoming.

It is especially powerful to write goals, rather than just say them (I do both). Tracy says that there is something about (hand) writing the goals that really forces one to focus on what is being written.

My process involves writing the goals in the morning and then reading them out loud immediately after I write them, and then in the evening re-reading them out loud before I go to bed.

I have always been someone who has written goals, but I had not written them every day until I started last spring.

The process was actually quite accidental. I wrote them one day. Then a few days later I wrote them again. And then I eventually ended up writing them every day.

And then I made it an experiment to see how long I could keep it up. And I haven’t stopped yet!

During this time, there has been a lot of transition in my life in regards to friends, health, work, and lifestyle… everything that I have written about in my goals.

For example, with friends, within a few days of writing, “All of my relationships are full of mutual trust, respect, liking and support,” several of my friends were excreted out of my life.

I say “excreted” because even in the midst of the friendships I knew they were junk-food relationships… not really quality relationships with not very high-quality people (lacking in integrity, honesty, etc) but I didn’t want to see that because I really did like them… they were fun to hang out with (and quite frankly, Sedona is slim-pickin’s for friendships if you are in your 20′s-30′s and want similarly aged people in your life.)

But liking is only part of the goal. So the universe and I excreted them out of my experience.

This is one of the benefits of doing this exercise, but I write this also to warn you that the changes can be powerful and swift and I can’t say that the initial feeling of letting go of these people felt good. (The image that it is evoking to me is when one takes too much fiber and there is a fast ‘excretion’ on a biological level – not fun.)

But after a few weeks I did feel better and it was actually much more empowering to move forth without the presence of these people in my life.

Also, throughout these changes there were a few moments when I wanted to stop the exercise, mainly out of laziness… or so I thought.

Here is the key thought of this post… The times when I wanted to let go of the process were the times I benefited from it the most.

That is because the times that I didn’t want to do it were the times I was the most out of vibration from these goals.

In the midst of moving thousands of miles and starting a new school I was so stressed and had so many moments of questioning my ability and worthiness to be doing what I was doing. Will my choices and all the stress that I am experiencing right now be worth it in the end? Why don’t I just take the easy route?

Add to that the fact that I was around people who knew my old vibration very well and, as an indigo adult and empath, could feel that imprinting on me.

I think this happens to a lot of empaths and I realized in this process that by doing this exercise my vibration – the one that I was deliberately creating through the goals exercises – were stronger than the vibrations of family, who I was before I started focusing on these goals, my own habitual tendencies to move into my old vibration (like turning around at the first sign of overwhelm and stress), etc…

So I’m encouraging indigo adults, empaths and others who feel that they are pretty psychically open to do this exercise.

Try it for a couple weeks and observe the shifts in your life.

Remember to write in the positive (say “I am slender” rather than “I’m not fat”) and that “I am..________” statements are the most powerful statements because your brain will hear them and align with them.

Also, I like to write, “or something better.” at the end of each of the statements.

“I earn $XXX per year, or something better.” Because sometimes you might ask for something and not know that it’s not in your best interest.

I also highly recommend you pick up Brian Tracy’s book. It’s really good and goes much more in-depth than what I have written.

If you do this and have results, please post them as comments on this page! I would love to hear them.

A short anecdote…

I went to the doctor recently to take care of a minor earache.

I am in my thirties and one of the nurses was looking over the intake form and in a high-pitched, shocked voice she said, “There’s nothing wrong with you?!”

And I was like, “Well, no. Why would there be?”

Another nurse came in and the other left. She said the same thing in the same exact voice.

Then the doctor came in, and again in the same tone, “You don’t have anything wrong with you?!”

“Well, no, except for what’s going on with my ear. What I came in here for. Normally, I work on myself and I know I need help with this. So I came in.”

She looked at me like I was crazy because there was nothing chronically wrong with me.

And I laughed to myself because there are very high statistics correlating people’s wellness and the amount of trips one takes to the doctor.

See, there will be nothing wrong with you if it’s not diagnosed. All of a sudden, when it’s diagnosed, it becomes a problem.

For example, later in the exam felt my throat and I said, “I always have swollen glands. From when I was ten. Nothing has come of it. No biggie.”

She responds, “Maybe you have Epstein Barr Syndrome”. And I was like, “I doubt it.”

She said, “Well, have you ever been tested?” And I was like, “Uh, who cares. I feel great most of the time since we noticed twenty years ago.”

I was, however, stuck with a needle every time I went to the doctor as a teenager to see if those swollen glands were mono. And they never were.

So, here’s my point. Doctors are there to find what’s wrong with the body. And then to focus on it. And then to get you to focus on it and believe in it. That’s their job.

And then once they get you to focus and believe something’s wrong, it is likely that you will start manifesting something wrong.

I stay healthy by staying away from doctors.

This might not be good advice for everyone, and there are some docs out there that are more progressive and integrative and moments when a doctor can be useful (as with my ear), but for the most part, it is a pretty jacked up profession, especially in the U.S.

Peace

One year ago this month I broke up with my best friend.

Throughout those 25 years of friendship, I had confided in her almost every step of the way, naively believing that I could trust her and that she was a supportive confidant.

Well, a year ago, she was a little more overt in her lack of support. She hated my idea… a creative project that I was very enthusiastic about… and instead of stopping at her criticism, I pushed on and the project came out great!

Well, this infuriated her and she just attacked me verbally and through email unrelentingly.

We are talking about pages of emails about how I shouldn’t have done this project, even though every other person who was involved or had knowledge of it LOVED it and was fully supportive of it.

I was devastated. I didn’t know how to respond.

I didn’t want to return the attack. Even though I was mad and hurt, I knew it wouldn’t solve anything.

I didn’t want to apologize because I had nothing to apologize for. I had an idea. I implemented the idea. Several people benefited from implementing the idea. No harm was done.

I had to decide whether I wanted to work it out with her… truly work it out, for the longevity of the relationship.

And I would have, because I love her so much, but I also looked at the impact this relationship had had on my life, especially the last decade or so.

I had to be truthful and realize that many of the ideas that I had and had shared with her had miscarried after I told her.

Over the last decade, there were a few ideas and pet projects that were so precious to me that I didn’t even tell her, and they always ran on course.

But the ones I told her about almost always got derailed, or sucked in the end, or ended up being a horrible experience.

This is not to say that most of the time she was all supportive and clapping on the outside… face to face.

But after thinking about the course of our relationship, I realized that she had been digging her *energetic* heels into every project that I loved and was encouraging to take off.

By doing so, she was bringing the entire project down or killing it outright.

So I didn’t call.

We haven’t spoken in a year.

Results:

I was sad for a long time, but after I stopped being sad, the ideas kept coming and I kept making them happen and it was easy because there was no one dragging them down.

And it was kind of a relief to not tell her stuff. I thought that’s what best friends did – they told each other stuff that they hold dear.

But maybe that’s not true.

Maybe that’s a pretty sophomoric way to look at BFF relationships.

And towards the end of our friendship, I would dread telling her things, knowing that the energetic impact could be powerfully negative.

Since our friendship has ended, this has been the most productive and amazing year for me. Really. I am feeling a freedom that I can’t remember feeling in a really long time.

It’s the freedom to create without someone I love looking over my shoulder and telling me or thinking “It sucks”.

And I’m so much more positive in general.

She had been mentally criticizing me for years without me realizing it, and now that I have shut her out and her criticism out, I am so much happier.

I can hear my own voice and the voice of the very awesome friends I have now, telling me positive and kind words.

Words, sentiments and thoughts that never would have come out of ex-BFF’s mouth.

And I replaced her with a dog. And the dog is so much cooler! And a lot more supportive!

So I will say it again, my advice to indigo adults is do share your ideas, but in the early stages of your musings, be very careful with whom you share them.

Or keep them to yourself until they have enough structure in the physical realm to stand up to the potentially destructive energetic forces of others.

I picture a new idea as a soap bubble, floating in the air.

Energetically, it’s fragile and able to be taken by a gust of wind or some other gentle shift in the environment.

In order to preserve an idea, energetically, it is important to protect its energetic environment.

And the way that can be done is to keep it to oneself until it has grown strong enough that mild fluctuations in the environment will not effect its stability.

One of the most valuable lessons I have learned is that a new thought has an energy of it’s own, but it must be protected.

If the idea is shared with those that do not support the idea or that do not believe it can be pulled off (like a plan or decision) their thought energy will then be part of the energy of the idea.

But unfortunately, it will be the part that can make it go awry.

For example, let’s say you are going to write a book. That idea is whole and complete and intact. You are inspired.

Then you go and tell John Doe that you are going to write a book. It is possible then for John to pull you off course by a single comment, or even to support you face to face and then mentally hope that you will fail or think that you will fail.

John’s ability to do this is tenfold if you are empathic or psychic, as many indigo adults are, and are not able to filter out others or distinguish between what “stuff” is yours and what “stuff” belongs to other people.

I’m writing this at a time in my life where there are many projects going on. Some are still in their fledgling stages… some are further along.

And a few have been derailed because it was too tempting to me to spread the word about what I am up to because I am excited about it.

And in this modern age, things like facebook and twitter make it so easy to shout your plans and ideas from the rooftops prematurely.

In my case, I did so, and I started to feel a shift in the way I felt about the idea.

I felt insecure and like I wasn’t that into it anymore.

And then I realized that I had just posted something about it on a social networking site and that that was swaying my attitude about my idea.

Knowing this, I have cleared energy of others around the idea (you can clear anything energetically) and since then I have been back on track.

As I have gotten older, I have also learned to dig in deep and push myself beyond what I am hearing in the ether.

The one upside to sharing ideas is when it is truly with a helpful and supportive person. But sometimes you never know. (see my next post)

I just completed a project in which I was closely working with a bunch of people (making a short film), many I suspect to be indigo adults.

Regardless or not of indigo status, I have noticed that every time I work on a crew, I have seen the empathic effect of groups upon the members of the group.

It is often said that in mastermind groups, the “mastermind” raises the abilities of all members of the group, and lowers the effect of the members’ weaknesses.

I have found this to be true in many ways, but none as much as when working crew.

The first time I worked on a project, I was director and producer and had no idea what I was doing, but to my disbelief, I knew exactly what I needed to do when I needed to do it.

I believe that it is not only the “mastermind” of the film crew that does this, but also the collective mind of producers, directors, etc. everywhere and anytime. Perhaps it is very faint, but those with an intuitive mind are unknowingly (or knowingly) tapping the abilities of expert technicians like Hitchcock and Spielberg.

The nice thing about this, is that by tapping this universal knowledge, you start to own the knowledge, and then can pass it on to others because you carry it with you.

I most recently became aware that I was “tapping” into the ether, when I had to light a set. While I have been learning a lot about how to do this, I knew that the knowledge wasn’t “part of me” yet.

I struggled a bit at the beginning, but once I started owning the position, I started to instinctively know what to do and where to put things. Even how to act in the position.

It was truly fascinating to me.

And I have also come to realize that the closer you are to a collective (like one that knows cinematography), the more clear you receive useful information when you have to draw upon the collective to get the job done.

And it doesn’t really matter whether you are with indigo adults or not. This ability is universal. Muggles just aren’t as good at it because they don’t have faith in it.

I recently got an email asking me about a indigo adults experiencing an Octarine transition, and I didn’t really know what to write.

I just researched Octarine transition. Honestly, I wish I could help with that but I don’t know much about it.

There is not much posted online about the Octarine Transition but this is the best article I have found.

I do have some theories about it, though.

Some of the sites I saw referred to Octarine as a color of aura. So one would be an Octarine Adult, rather than an indigo adult.

The other sites implied that the transition, called “Octarine Transition”, was the shifting of an individual from an Indigo Adult to a Crystal Adult.

Also, the descriptions of Octarine Adults were different than the typical descriptions of Crystal Adults.

Regardless of what color (of aura) you are, I believe that all of these classifications can be grouped under one classification, which would be the NEW CHILDREN (or in some of our cases, the NEW ADULTS).

I have found that different indigo adults and children (shall I call them New People?) have different psychic abilities.

Perhaps the color indicates the type of mission one is on on this planet and that determines the abilities necessary to achieve that mission.

Whenever I am having a difficult time, such as when I am transitioning to a higher vibrational state, I consider it to be a time that will allow me to be able to better handle changes that are coming up for EVERYONE (Muggles included).

I once had someone say to me, “The psychics, healers and intuitives go through everything emotionally/psychically BEFORE the general population so that they may help them through that time with even emotions and a clear head.”

I have found this to be quite true for me.

I was working across from the World Trade Center three months before 9-11 and I was incredibly distraught every day I had to go to work. All I kept thinking was, “I have to get away from here!” which was weird because I was earning an ENORMOUS amount of money and I liked my job.

But now I know why.

So do your best not do despair. There will be a time when you will be needed and you will be able to see clearly when others are needing your guidance.

That’s what I said to one of my relatives the other day.

She was describing the terrible state of the world, in her opinion, and that it is a travesty that the young people of today don’t know what’s “going on” in the world.

And I said to her that, “I don’t need to know (pointing to my head), because I KNOW (pointing to my heart).”

I feel that most of the media machines are there not to inform the people of the world, but to strike fear into their hearts.

And, Yes…

I definitely sense a major shift coming.

And that America is in a very precarious state.

I do keep up enough to be aware of things that are taking place.

But I turn it off the moment I start to feel twinges of fear.

And I do feel them.

But I don’t allow myself to wallow so much in this fear-mongering information that I cannot quickly move myself out of that emotional space.

I will mention again that I feel strongly that as we move into the earth changes, the ability to manifest will become great in all people, and whatever people envision will come with these political and environmental shifts is what will happen.

But it will be an individual choice. And one person may not choose for another.

But one person may INFLUENCE another.

Which is why I do not spend to much time in front of TV news or with people that are constantly doom-and-gloom.

And I recommend that you do the same.

Because if you come from a space that is rooted in the fear that is being spit out by the media and by those around us that are in fear, your choices will be fear based.

But if we choose to do our best to stay in a space of peace and focus on things that we love and appreciate, we will be able to make the best choices for ourself and others when the time comes to make choices.

You must do your best to be a stand for hope and love and cooperation and a positive and happy life for the people of this planet.

That’s what I feel I and other indigo adults are here to do.

Found a great article about the results of some scientific experiments that relate to indigo adults and the power of precognition and empathy!

(CLICK ON DOT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT GLOBAL CONSCIOUSNESS PROJECT)

When I was a kid (an indigo kid… haha), I played softball (indigo softball…haha, just kidding).

I remember one game when I got hit with a fast hit to where I was playing second base, my favorite position.

The ball hit my flesh and it throbbed for days.

The odd thing was that my team came up to me and said that I had reacted to the ball hitting me before it actually hit me.

Apparently, now there is scientific evidence that everything that we perceive as happening happening in this moment actually already happened.

Further scientific evidence shows that humans, both indigo adults/kids and Muggles, are emotionally reacting to things that will be happening 5 seconds in the future.

So maybe I was reacting to the future that was about to happen.

There are more experiments that this article describes. I found the one about predicting 9/11 very interesting.

There was a machine at Princeton University that was called a “Random Event Generator” aka “Black Box” which was a machine that randomly selected “1′s” and “0′s” all day, essentially the same chance percentage as flipping a coin.

The inventor, Dr. Roger Jahn, created this machine and started this experiment in the 70′s because he wanted to see if human thought could effect the random chance of this “coin toss”.

The first time the machine fluctuated was the day that Princess Diana’s funeral was televised.

But then on September 6, 1997, something quite extraordinary happened: the graph shot upwards, recording a sudden and massive shift in the number sequence as his machines around the world started reporting huge deviations from the norm. The day was of historic importance for another reason, too. It was the day when over one-billion people, from all around the globe, watched the funeral of the loved Diana, Princess of Wales at Westminister Abbey.

It seems that, without making a conscious effort to focus on the “black boxes,” the collective psyché of humanity was able to change the random pattern.

September 11 is another example.

“On September 11, 2001, the normally flat line of the boxes began to peak, warning of an event of terrible proportions a full 4 hours before the first plane hit the World Trade Center! Could the collective human mind have “known” what was going to happen?…”

This article not only offers evidence that there is a collective mind, but that that collective mind has the ability to feel future events.

If that is true, then can those future events be changed if we feel into them early enough?

When I lived in New York, I worked across the street from the WTC. I left 3 months before 9/11 and for the entire year before I kept feeling “I’ve got to get out of here.” And I would look up at the towers and see them falling toward me. I thought it was a weird optical illusion, and I thought I had just gotten burnt out on the city, but sometimes I wonder if I was taping into the global collective awareness.

And perhaps the collective awareness can see that far into the future. We may only be able to scientifically test for 5 seconds of emotional reaction, but there are so many levels to a living being that one year out is not that long for an event that shakes the consciousness of the entire world.

Certainly offers a strong argument for self and group meditation, huh?

Here’s the URL for the article: The World is Waiting Just For … What?

Any indigo adults have thoughts on this subject?

Do you remember the scene in Raiders Of The Lost Ark where they open up the ark and craziness and melted faces ensues?

Ever since I saw that scene as a little girl, I have vividly remembered that scene, not just because it was super gross and scary, but because I think it holds a very important analogy.

The people that survived that scene were the ones that closed their eyes. Despite the chaos in their world and the temptation to watch the chaos, they closed their eyes and kept them closed.

I just saw a documentary called Zeitgeist, which offered yet another doomsday scenario to the coming years.

I recommend this movie ONLY if you can detach yourself enough from the material and take the information in in a factual way, which I think is very difficult, especially for empaths and indigo adults.

The movie paints a pretty dismal scenario, but here is the thing… I think we, as indigo adults, have to take in the facts and then look for solutions.

We must ask the question, “How can we create a future where everyone, or as many people as possible, wins?

And the reason I say you must take in the information but not get caught up in the emotional stimulation it causes is because that if you get emotionally caught up, it is equivalent to leaving your eyes open when the open the ark in Indiana Jones.

Closing your eyes does not mean closing off the information coming to you from the world around you. In Indiana Jones, how would they have known the right time to close their eyes if they hadn’t been paying attention to what is going on around them?

I see the closing of the eyes the equivalent of the manifestation work necessary to get through the earth changes and to help others do the same.

Closing of the eyes in Indiana Jones is equivalent to thinking thoughts of love and well being with single focus and pig-headed determination to prevent getting sucked into any scuffle happening around you.

Easier said than done.

And what I always find weird about these movies is that these evil elitist are on the same planet as we are and breathe the same air and drink the same water. If they are as wise and all knowing as these movies purport them to be… if they have kept their connection to the earth by knowing the true truth of human divinity… then who in their right and empowered mind would ever conceive a scenario such as world domination, enslavement and control?

The elite societies have known the laws of manifestation for centuries. It seems that it goes completely against those laws to step on others to get to the top.

So in thinking of this movie’s future scenario, I have thought of a few things to think about.

1. You are always in control of your thoughts, so no matter what happens think thoughts of love… you family, your dog, your favorite things to do, etc… Use that to stay centered (aka… to keep your eyes closed if you happen to be in a scene where the ark is opening)

2. Love your enemy. I know this sounds sort of cliche, but think about it… if these bad elitists had a glimmer of heart chakra energy open to themselves, would they be able to do the things they do (or that the movie says they are doing)? Or if they were open to the empathic power that I believe everyone has innately… How long do you think separation mentality would occur? So I pray that those that have the power to do lots of good in the world… the most good… have a continued experience of heart opening and empathic experiencing to what they give their attention to and make decisions about.

I posted about Cynthia Crawford’s website a few months ago and in the video that is currently on her homepage, she talks about an experience with a bad alien that had taken someone away. A person witnessed the alien abducting this other person and told the alien to stop and he said, “What are you going to do about it?” and the person said, “I will love you.” And the alien put down the person he was taking away and left. (BTW, most of the species of aliens Cynthia Crawford talks about are kind but there are a few persnickety ones, and this occurrence was with one of those.)

I tell this story to illustrate the power of love thoughts and emotion, and the hope that we, as a planet, start to recognize and use that power.

Additionally, you will find that you can use this phrase mentally for big and small issues, and for me there is a huge sensation of safety and power (true power… self empowerment) that this thought/this phrase ignites in me when I use it.

3.

I don’t have a step 3. I’m hoping some of you indigo adults and other psychic minds write in your thoughts so that we do have a philosophy of game plan. I’m sure, like me, you have read a ton of books on the earth changes and you’ve mentally made decisions on how to manage your energy and resources should things start shifting fast.

Part of me thinks that things will be so fluid that there really is no way to prepare in the physical world for all that is to come. That this will be a test of our inner worlds (eyes closed).

But I am kind of fascinated by all this, if only to become clearer in my own intuition on right ways of thought and action.

Your comments would be a lovely addition to this post.

~Peace~
