Hello Everyone,
I have moved on to Course Two of the Effortless Success program. I am filled with a sort of nervous energy.... I have realised that with the tools and resources given it is virtually impossible for me to avoid attaining my goals. That is an exciting-yet-scary scenario. No magic, no secrets, no hocus pocus; just a series of tools and goals to implement and I'll get there. I am suddenly confronted with the fact that it is up to me this time. Do I or don't I want to achieve my dreams and goals?

Secondly I started to work positively on "my dark side". That entails indentifying hidden feelings and subsequently turning around ones limiting beliefs.

FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT WANT TO READ ANYTHING NEGATIVE, QUIT THIS POST NOW.

FOR THOSE WHO ARE TREADING THE SAME PATH AND WANT TO SHARE THE INSIGHTS AND WINS.... READ ON.

As directed I focused on my limiting beliefs. The purpose of digging around in our dark corners is to identify beliefs that "may be resonating at a low energy level and turn it around to raise its vibrational level" in order that we can attract what we truely want.

Limiting beliefs:

* "It's bad / wrong to be attractive i.e. sexy (My mother's belief passed on to me. For some reason she equated sexy with downright disgusting - work that one out if you can!)
* I'm bad at communication (this nugget of wisdom was imparted by Scientology when I was in my late teens. Whenever I have a communication hick-up I find myself wondering if, perhaps, they were right.)
* I can't make / access money (this limiting belief has really 'worked' for me. Remember, what you focus on is what you get. I'm an expert at working for nothing. In fact I have spent the past 17 years working as a volunteer - for free.)
* Even doing my best isn't enough. (I pull this spectre out of the dark recessess any time I really want to give myself a rough time.)
* My husband and I can't work together - we'll just fight (His belief, not mine. However his limiting belief becomes mine by proximity)

I noticed that my limiting beliefs have been given to me by others. I have been aware of their existence, so no real learning here. The real 'aha's came when I started to look at the consequences of those limiting beliefs on my life and how other people's ERRONEOUS beliefs have limited my decisions.

Is there anyone out there doing ES course 2?
Enjoy the growth and expansion,
French Claire
