7 Wonders Rocked My World! 01/14/2011

A book appeared!  On Saturday Quinton mentioned a book to me and the next thing that happened kind of blew me away.  Out of my mouth - "I've got to get it and I need to read it by Monday".  What?  It all felt a tad strange, but compelling at the same time so I didn't question it.   "The 7 Wonders that Will Change your Life" by Glenn Beck & Keith Ablow, MD.  Somehow I finished it by Monday morning - a quick read & fascinating story!  

SO many treasures - here's a few....

Listen with your third ear!
Observe and listen to my gut, listen keenly, investigate what I sense.

Act on it!  Tune into my feelings about situations I am in and conversations I am having.  Listen for the voice of my intuition.  Sometimes it's soft and I slough it off.  I practiced this week and reached out when it said to reach out.  What I discovered...more adventure, more risk, more connection with others and rich surprising experiences.

Question with boldness.  Question everything. Seek the truth. Even question what you think you know about you!

Honestly, these are just specks of what I took away from reading it! 

The reasons why I was supposed to read it by Monday are already surfacing and many I'm sure I will never know.  It impacted my coaching call on Tuesday with a new client (amazing parallels w/ her life), my Dad started reading it and he's making important timely changes in his life which are impacting my mom's well-being, and I haven't been able to contain myself in sharing it with otherse reading it...and it ripples on.  His story has deeply inspired me to keep digging for truth within myself and seek strength from my life experiences as I move forward.

"Everything can begin to change for the better in a single hour, never mind a month or a year… Your commitment to move forward, despite adversity, is the force that actually paves the way." - from the book

The power of truth is inside you, waiting for you to discover it, even if you have been running from it for a lifetime."

Check it out for yourself!
