Do you sometimes wonder why the wheels you put in motion to move your current project or goal into momentum slow down? Sometimes for me, as in the past couple of days, it feels like the brakes have been pulled on by some mysterious third party.

Today’s card Steady Progress gave me a clue to help solve my dilemma.

Card from Doreen Virtue’s Daily Guidance Oracle Cards: Steady Progress

So what stops me building momentum? I thought the answer was to try and go at full throttle, I have had to face the fact that I could not sustain that and get everything done well. Bettjoy, a friend and fellow LOA coach reminded me of the systematic action I took back in May to get to Vancouver. I had a vision, I had a plan and I did the things I had to do so that I would achieve my goal. I realize now it was not so much a matter of speed as a focussed building of momentum which became unstoppable.

So I now have to work out how to rinse and repeat!

The aim is steady progress as the card says.

Last week I wrote on Thinking Home Business about writing 5 minute valuable posts, inspired by Chris Garrett speaking at SoBCon

Today I think short posts will be standard here and at Zen Law of Attraction for the next few days.

Do you sometimes set yourself wonderful inspiring goals as I have done, ones that are a real stretch and then panic sets in when things don’t go according to plan? In this case great ideas , I just didn’t plan the implementation, but sometimes you just have to press on. Technology is wonderful when it works. I have masses of valuable information and imagery on cds that is not being read and won’t open. Off to get out the ancient laptop to see if I can rescue this data.

Drop back later for the next exciting installment.

Gratitude to VaiMoi for the wonderful photo and to Des who is getting all the domains we are selling organized.

Some great names coming up, just to tantalize you there is blogger success and prosperity train.

Don’t you just love the saying on the card

” Everything is how it needs to be right now. Look past the illusion, and see underlying order.”

This is a great follow on from yesterday’s card, Clear Your Space, I thought.

For me this is also about Allowing and accepting, being with what is. I find this a challenge at times, as this used to mean for me letting go of what I saw as my being in charge, being in control.

This is something that is changing for me. I heard someone say recently ” I have let go of being the General Manger of the universe.” I thought this was a wonderful observation.

So today I am going to be with what is. Who knows what magic might happen!

Did magic happen for you today?

Do you have clutter? I still have stuff and I remembered an article Carole Fogarty had written Mess is Not Clutter a few weeks ago. Carole is also a Feng Shui Master.

Carole says:

Healthy mess is part of daily living, it shows that your home is loved and lived in, its connected to all things that you use regularly and with a quick tidy up is easily sorted. Clutter is not used nor loved and never gets sorted. Bless your daily healthy mess.
Clutter lurks behind mess and pretends to be mess

Reading this was heartening for me as I have drawn this card a few times recently.

So is my studio area , messy or cluttered? I bit of both I fear. Space needs to be cleared both to reneregise my creativity and for good feng shui.

One area I feel beckoning me, is the dreaded email, that has alluded me. I have several gmail accounts and still have stuff in outlook on my PC. I was about to move to Mac mail until I read Darren’s post last weeks ago on From 1000 to 0 Emails in an Inbox in 24 hours. I then saw a tweet yesterday that by 9am he has cleared his inbox as well as moderated his comments. I asked of he had been up for hours? No came the reply back “only an hour with the Wiggles in the background.” He refers in this post to Leo Babauta, the Zen Habits master of productivity and simplicity.

Saving one hour each day will be fantastic, time for creative play and just one inbox sounds like magic. The list culling will be fun too. I have been naughty, signed up for a few more recently. I will start with 15 minutes a day culling and by this time next week one inbox!

What,this will do for me ,is give me focus, essential on my path to freedom.

Time for a Happy Dance

What do you do to clear your space?
