30 Days 30 Stories – Day 5 – My Stories Have a Theme

I am looking at a list of stories I am going to be writing about this month. Two years ago I started making a list of stories from my life and I felt stuck in some ways. Many story ideas were coming to me but most of them seemed to be from my adult years.

In the past few days since embarking on my 30 Day 30 Story adventure I have listed many stories from my childhood that are now speaking out to me. They want to be told.

And just now I am looking at them and see that they have several similar threads running through them. It is so cool to be realizing this now.

Here are some of the themes I am seeing:

  • Going for it no matter how unreachable it seemed
  • Taking action on my ideas even though I was ridiculed or not seemingly successful
  • Getting yelled at my teachers (yeah me!) and being made fun of by students who could not see my uniqueness
  • Standing out like a sore thumb and finding a way to fit in even if I was ignored anyway
  • Having big desires at a young age

I am sure there are more threads and I can see how these all relate to my purpose!

Have you looked at the stories of your life and how they are all related to your purpose?

Stepping Into My Divine Inspiration Niche

So here I sit on the edge of my seat … literally … and I am “listening.”

I’ve had inklings about my niche of “divine inspiration” for a while now. I launched a program in 2009 called “Birth Your Idea.” I was so scared about stepping into it that I did not market it for long. Then months later I had the idea of marketing a program called “Reconnecting to Your Genius” and through inspiration I created even more content.

But I never launched this program because I was too darned fearful. That was two programs guiding people to get in touch with their inspiration and creating and manifesting from that.

So my inspiration was guiding me to coach others how I do what I do this “thing” that I have always called my greatest gift and my biggest nemesis! For over two decades I have been saying this and it took this entire past year to accept it is time to share it with others!

I’ve been creating products … the physical “hold it in your hand” kind of products since the early nineties. I created an ergonomic product in 1992 to raise the computer monitor up to stop neck pain and a series of other products. It was 2003 when I first had the inspiration to write my ergonomics eBook and soon after began creating all kinds of audio products. And now a DVD and spiritual technologies. And art prints and t-shirts and more! It is PLAY for me!

I never really questioned this gift. I kept taking the logical actions to bring them to life when it was appropriate. My biggest challenge over the years was how to handle the CONSTANT flow of ideas to me. It happens time after time … while in the middle of one project the ideas start to flow about another one. So I have learned that I must capture this information as it is coming in otherwise it will just fly away!

At one point over 20 years ago it was so overwhelming to me that I asked the ideas to stop so that I could quiet my mind and they did. I did not know how to harness the energy of these ideas and it drove me nuts! A few years later they all came back and ever since I have been perfecting how I do what I do!

And it is not as if I can always just write the idea down real quick and be done with it. Sometimes it is an entire download and I just allow it to come in. That is how I have learned to honor my gift. It has taken me years and years … well decades … to learn how to discern what to work on.

There is not enough time in the day to take action on every idea that comes in. Many of my ideas are for others whether they have asked me for them or not and I only offer my ideas when I am guided to. So most often I just let it go. I have often joked about requiring a team to literally follow me around to record and organize all my notes and ideas and to take action on them as I have instructed.

When I have teams in place this discernment is even more important so the passion continues and we are productive and getting !

Over the years I have been told that I am always doing something new and exciting. I did not look at it that way. I was just doing my thing. Friends I have not seen in a while would want me to immediately fill them in. Just last year someone I knew over 20 years ago told me that he remembered this about me … and we did not even hang out … he was dating a friend!

That really made me think since I had been pondering the bigger picture for months. When I owned my ergonomic business it was obvious what my niche and purpose was. So that is when I started to take a closer look.

I hired Andrea Hess for a reading since that is one of her specialties. Almost immediately she told me that my niche is divine inspiration. Why was I was not surprised?!! Just I never thought about coaching others how to do this because it is so easy for me.

And that was the challenge all these months!! I kept asking myself “Who would want to hire me?” “Why would someone benefit from my coaching in this area.”

I did not necessarily actually ask these questions but these were the feelings, the sentiments I had. It has been very difficult to wrap my mind around this. As I began sharing with others they would say “You mean you can learn that” or “I wish I was inspired.”

It has taken a lot for me to get this far. It is a lot to step into sharing your gift with the world especially when the world could use a lot of divine inspiration. The fear that I have felt has been intense and at the same time difficult to put my hand on.

I did have the courage to develop a series last year called “Open to Divine Inspiration” and I loved creating it and presenting it.

And now I am so excited to announce that I am leading a 6 month coaching program starting in February called “Living in Divine Inspiration to Consciously Create Your Most Fulfilling Life with Passion, Joy and Ease.”

I chose a 6 month program to give everyone an opportunity to open and create. A lot can change in this amount of time. Just one inspiration and inspired action changes lives. This is how I have lived my life and where major portions of my income have come from in the last 20+ years.

And this can be learned. That is what “Living in Divine Inspiration” is all about. Look for an announcement for the free teleclasses I will be leading beginning next week. If you want to be on the list to attend this free teleclass series then register here –> http://www.wendygyoung.com.

Inspired Action in Perfect Timing

I attended Baeth Davis’s Life Purpose Summit in Phoenix this past weekend.  It was a  last minute choice and I am in deep gratitude for how it all came together.

When I heard about it a couple of weeks before I felt the desire to attend deep inside my body. Instead of taking action to go I just kept seeing myself there and I knew that I would be there.

The best part was when I emailed a friend in Houston to tell her about it and the fact that there was a way she could go as my guest and we could then save money.  She emailed back to say that she was already enrolled and had a friend that was splitting the cost of the event.

Then she offered that her boyfriend wanted to go and would be interested in splitting the cost of the ticket with me. As the event was getting closer he realized that he wanted to be there!

It is so interesting when this happens because it is an confirmation of listening to my intuition. Or was I simple feeling inspired?!

It seems like a combination of both.

The important point here is to listen and take action when you are guided.

Once I made the choice to go and said YES all the necessary doors were wide open to create the perfect adventure and I manifested many unexpected pleasures! That’s how the law of attraction works!

Writing How Do YOU Do It?

Over weekend I took several hours to get some writing completed that I have been wanting to do for several weeks.

I started writing a few times and was never able to make the kind of progress I was desiring.

What was different for me this time?

One, maybe two things…

First, I am a different person than I was several weeks ago. Actually I am a different person than I was when I woke up this morning!

So there is a different energy inside of me that supports me in completing all the tasks at hand.

What was really different for me is that my laptop decided to go to sleep and over the weekend I did not feel like sitting in my home office at my computer.

I get stir crazy sometimes! So I grabbed a stack of paper and drove to Whole Foods (did I mention I love it there?!).

I had all my notes from the 4 part audio series I created recently and I took out a piece of paper and I started writing. To my amazement the words just flowed out of me and before I knew it I had completed five separate marketing letters.

Sure … maybe it was because I was finally ready to knock these letters out but I think it is something much simpler than that!

I was holding a pen in my hand and writing the old fashioned way! Pen to paper writing! What a concept!

If I ever had any blocks with inspiration it is when I am writing marketing copy! So my laptop deciding to take a siesta and leading me to be inspired to simply write by hand was the best thing that could’ve happened.

In a way you can call it “downstream” writing for those of you who follow Abraham! For me it was the path of least resistance!

When I thought about it later I realized that holding the pen in my hand brought out my creativity. It allowed me to be inspired while I write because when I was a child I wrote with my bare hands too!

So I moved past a major stuck point to complete this writing because I listened to inspiration and I took immediate action!

Of course now I am getting ready to type my notes and then there will be some editing but I am much further than I would have been.

Maybe next time I will be inspired how to write just as quickly while I type!

And it sure would be great to have a working laptop again!

Love and Inspiration!

Intuition or Inspiration

Last week on a teleclass I was asked if intuition and inspiration are the same and I admitted that it was something that I had been pondering recently.

I said that intuition is something that we have a feeling about … maybe there is a decision that we are trying to make and then we get the answer. Sometimes we meet someone and know instantly about whether we want to associate with this person. For many it is a feeling in the pit of the stomach and that is why intuition is often referred to as a “gut” feeling.

Inspiration is something totally different.

A few years ago I had been pondering the concept of where money comes from in the spiritual sense. Then one day I was standing in my kitchen and I asked this question outloud. I received an answer that told me to interview a series of experts in the field and I said to myself ..”OK.” Then an idea popped into my head that said “Why don’t you interview them and create an audio series and then sell it.”

I stood there just pondering this idea that came through and hit me on my head. I call it getting “zinged!” And I thought about it and made the decision to get started and within 24 hours had already lined up half of the speakers.

When you take immediate and bold action there is a divine flow from the universe that supports your efforts.

So next time you are wondering … “Is it inspiration or is it intuition?” Just tune in…This raises your awareness.

I do believe at times there is a fine line and it is probably not important to know and label whether something is intuition or inspiration.

The most important thing to remember is that we LISTEN and TAKE APPROPRIATE INSPIRED ACTION!

Garden Meditation and Adventure

Recently I was inspired to go out in my garden and pull the many weeds that had been growing. It was really interesting because I had been dreading it for weeks as I watched the weeds grow tall and wide.

When I started pulling weeds it was refreshing and it felt as if I was pulling weeds from my mind. There was a woosh of energy that kept pushing me to do something I would have preferred to hire a gardener for. I began to really enjoy myself and even pulled up a stool to sit on because I was getting tired after spending much more time in the garden than I had planned!

In one way I was really excited I waited so long because some of weeds were long enough to grab several bunches at a time so it was going much faster than I expected.

And then it happened!

It started raining and I did not mind. In fact I kept going and it started to rain really hard and I was just loving it. I had never done anything like that before and it was so exhilarating. My clothes and hair were completely drenched and I was covered with mud.

Fortunately I was wearing my waterproof hiking shoes that went up over my ankles and when I stood up my shoes completely submerged in the earth and I was hysterical with laughter and wished someone could have been there to witness my playfulness and my joyfulness.

This could never have happened had I gone out to pull weeds when I did not feel the inspiration to do it. This is what told me to put on those hiking shoes and to wear the jeans I wore!

When I had enough in the garden I hosed myself down to get all the mud off of me and felt like a child who was having the time of her life!

After I showered I wrapped towels around me and relaxed in a dark room and it reminded me when I traveled to Calistoga, California and spent some time in a spa that all began with being totally submerged in a bathtub of mud! After that I gave myself a pedicure!

Then I relaxed on the lounge chair in my den and looked out at the garden. It was so clean and fresh and I felt the same way.

What I realized in that moment is that I felt close to mother earth in a way that was very new to me and I could’ve sat there for hours except I was getting really hungry!

Usually I drive to Whole Foods or the Chinese restaurant around the corner to pick up my favorite food and this day I felt different and wanted something to match how I felt.

All of a sudden I thought about a Vietnamese restaurant I had not been to in over a year and realized that was where I wanted to be. This particular restaurant is about 20 minutes from my house and near the nursery I like to buy my plants from and it is in a wonderful part of town … lots of really good energy!

So that is what I did and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and then I went to Whole Foods for dessert and shared my story with a friend!!

The entire day and evening was completely inspired from first going out into the garden to my “spa” treatment for myself to eating at restaurant I love with all the tiny details in between. And the deep relaxation and living meditation was immense and pleasurable beyond all measure!

If you enjoyed my story do let me know and I would love to hear any stories you have about living an inspired day!

Creativity The Unseen Force That Changes Your Life

What is Creativity?

You cannot see it, feel it or touch it.

Creativity is energy and it comes to you in the form of an idea that may the solution to a problem in your life. The idea that flows into your mind has a universal life force built into it.

Creativity is the spark of inspiration that comes to you seemingly out of the blue. It is delivered to you in a flash. It seems like it is coming to you from somewhere outside but in reality it is coming from somewhere deep inside of you.

In this instant you are connected to or tapped in to a force of energy called the universe. You are now in the flow. Take note that this spark of insight came specifically to you for a reason. There might be others that have received the same idea in the same moment but did not take action. Or they may develop the idea independently of you on the other side of the world. It has happened and will happen again

What you do with this idea can be a determining factor in how fast your current situation can improve.

When an idea is delivered to you in a moment of spontaneity it carries with it all the forces of the universe to help produce the idea into reality. So it is of the utmost importance to take immediate action because this energy fuels the desire.

All you must do is take the first step. Once you do the next step will reveal itself to you and as you continue to take these small actions it will become easier and you will begin to trust the process much more.

Over 20 years ago I began to be in touch with this flow of energy and creative insight almost daily. I did not grow up in a house where there was time for creativity so I did not know how to channel these ideas.

There were so many ideas coming to me that I remember looking up and asking it to stop! It did to my delight. Then many years later I allowed it to come back and again it did to my delight!

You were born with this natural ability to be creative.

How are you tapping in and allowing your personal brand of creativity to change your life for the better?

Let me know!

Stand for your FREEDOM within this July 4th!

Happy Independence Day today July 4th, 2009! I hope you have a wonderful day planned with people you care about!

I’m curious what it means to you to have your freedom.

To be independent.

To live in a miraculous time such as this where you can choose where and how you want to live your life?

To decide what you want and take the divine right

Actions that will bring these desires to you?

Perhaps it is to have the choice of doing nothing.

Or making a difference in the world?

I was thinking about this earlier as I have been taking Divine right actions for the past 25 years in various businesses.

Sometimes it was challenging. Sometimes it was fun.

Sometimes it was…well, not fun!

But I kept going. I was persistent and I always asked myself what the next action was.

Last year I was going to close a business that was depleting me of energy. It had taken my freedom away.

I had been told it was not worth anything to anyone except me.

The decision to “let go” created a ripple effect in the universe. The universe was waiting for me to LET GO so that I could create the next stage of my life.

A few days later I was inspired with an idea to sell my business! I had “thought” of selling my business in the past but it did not seem viable. Frankly, it seemed impossible. Yet three months later it sold for an amount of money that was beyond my wildest dreams.

That is because I learned that when inspiration hits to take massive and immediate action.

Why?

When we take action from an inspired place the universe is on our side. We are riding the flow and energy of the universe.

Do you realize how powerful you are to create consistent miracles?

There is a big light inside of you that can bring you all that you truly desire!

Stand in that light! Show it off to the world.

Claim what it is that you want. Get out of the way. Allow it to come to you.

Let your universe open up to you.

And pretend those fireworks are going off inside of you!

Cause they really are!

Your Body is Your Manifestation Tool

Ok I have said it!

Your Body is Your Manifestation Tool!

You heard it from me Wendy G Young, today, Feb 10, 2009.

What in the world are you talking about Wendy you might be asking?? Right?

Well several few years ago I had an inkling I was going to create “something.” I founded an ergonomic business in ’91 and until I sold it in 2008 I was shipping products all over the world and had consulted in many large corporations.  After some painful twists and turns in the corporate arena I began feeling something newer and bigger on the way…a more expanded version of me.

As this corporate upheaval in my life was taking place I immersed myself into a deeper practice of the Law of Attraction and realized that this technology I created is a blend of my 17 years of work as an ergonomist and my 25 years of the study and practice of spirituality and the Law of Attraction.  

One day when I was interviewed on a radio show I began referring to the term “Spiritual Ergonomics.” I said “What message do you want your posture to send to the world?” At the time I realized that this had something to do with the relationship between postures and emotion yet I still had no idea what the final outcome would be (LOL – Is there really ever a final outcome?)

Over a period of time I created a body of writing and exercises around this intriguing concept that had been brewing inside of me for years! Then in 2006 a technique began revealing itself to me. As I practiced and focused on this technique I continued to receive inspiration and information that refined the techniqie and explained how and why it works.

After discovering Ho’oponopono an ancient Hawaiian Healing Technique I created iLoveU Ho’oponopono™ out of inspiration. The iLoveU design on this page is the symbol of this technology and part of the overall system I call the Spiritual Grid™ Manifestation Technology™.

This Spiritual Grid™ Manifestation Technology™ is based upon these six (6) premises:

1.      The body is a manifestation tool. We manifested our body to be in this life. The universe works through us and co-created our body with us so that we can use it as a tool to co-create our Divine inspirations. This technology connects us to our body. 

 

2.      We co-created planet earth, the largest “physical” manifestation in our environment with the Divine to support us in manifesting our desires. Living on earth is a symbol of this necessary connection at this time. When we are fully connected to earth we are supported in achieving our desires more quickly. This technology connects and grounds us to the earth.

 

3.      There is a direct connection between our body posture and our emotions. If we stand tall with a sad face we feel ridiculous and if we hunch over and smile we also feel silly and incongruent. A key component of manifestation in LOA teachings is about being in emotional alignment. This technology aligns you physically and emotionally and creates congruency with the universe. Our message to the universe must be congruent to manifest our desires. This technology creates this congruence.

 

4.      There is an energetic grid. We are an extension of this grid or source. We are one with source and our good comes only from this source. We must know it in our bones that we are source. This technology creates a stronger connection to this source.

 

5.      We must embody our desire in a clear and focused way. This technology fully embodies our desires in various realms and energizes them to speed up manifestation.

 

6.      We must have supporting beliefs to manifest our desires. This technology helps clear negative energies that may be getting in the way and creates new postive beliefs and intentions.

I discussed this technology with Dr. Joe Vitale a few months ago as a participant in his Rolls Royce Mastermind. His comment to me in the first 20 minutes of our mastermind: ““Your approach of Using the Body As a Manifestation Tool is truly different and very unique.”

Yes! It is different. It shifts you from a place of doing to being. It speeds up the manifestation of your desires.

Recently on Meet the Press it was discussed that the economic stimulus package was designed to help boost confidence in the minds of the American people. True confidence comes from inside not from something outside of ourselves.

This technology is your inner confidence booster!

I will be presenting a LIVE workshop on Sat, Feb 21st. If you feel called to attend this live event then I welcome you! This is the first time this technology is being presented and the price is the lowest it will ever be!

To find out more register for the introductory audio up and to the right (directly under the picture of Dr. Joe Vitale and myself!)

Feel free to tell your friends…especially if they live in Houston or anywhere in Texas :)

iLoveU!!

Who are you BEING in your Perfect Place in Time?

This past weekend I was on my Facebook page and received an IM from the other side of the world from a man that thought I could help him. He had no idea it was 6:21am on Saturday morning and that I had practically just opened my sleepy eyes but I chatted with him for a bit.   

He told me that relationships are very difficult for him. I could feel his sadness. He told me that someone like me would not know anything like that. Yet I explained to him that I had been where he is now and with practice relationships have become much easier for me over the years.  Sometime though knowing a tool can make all the difference in the world.

It appeared that he was focusing on exactly what he did not want so of course that is going to bring him even more of what he does not want and more heartache. Without getting into all the implications of the Law of Attraction I suggested that he simply take some time that day and write down exactly what he wanted in a romantic relationship.  He said that he would do that so I could feel that he was open to hearing some advice.

Then I felt this intuitive zing to suggest that he begin loving himself more. I had no idea how he was going to react or respond to this as I know nothing about him. Yet I felt the nudge to mention this because if we desire someone to love us then we must love ourselves first.  We must BE that loving person we want to attract in our life.

His response….”I am going to take a bold step!” That is what he said. It did not take much time at all. He made a decision based upon a simple suggestion.

What a great way to start my day!

A few hours later I was in a conversation with a Twitter friend and the idea of beingness came up. She had mentioned that she would like to be in a continual place of being instead of the bouts of beingness that she currently experiences.

I told her that all was in perfect order and that those bouts of being are the perfect place for her to begin moving forward towards the place she wants to be…

And here is her response… “Everything is perfect for me to be in that state of beingness I want right now.”

Both of them are very fast learners! Yeah for them and yeah for the rest of the world!  The more we love ourselves and stay in that place of beingness the more we inspire those around us to take these same actions. It is the ripple effect.

This is a perfect time to practice as Barack Obama begins his term in office tomorrow. We are all in this together and it begins with ME!

What are some ways that you display love towards yourself?

Tell me about your bouts of beingness.

Look forward to your comments on my blog!

 

iLoveU !!

Wendy
