Lately, our world feels like a game of shock and awe—a strategy designed to overwhelm, keeping us in a constant state of reaction. When we’re in this mode, we lose touch with our inner wisdom, our power, and our deep connection to Source. We forget that, despite external chaos, we can make conscious choices every single day about how we want to live.
Shifting Perspective: The Black Dot Story
A professor once gave his students a surprise test. When they turned over their papers, they found no questions—just a single black dot in the center of the page.
“Write about what you see,” the professor instructed.
Every student described the black dot—its position, size, and meaning—but no one mentioned the vast white space surrounding it.
When all the papers were read, the professor explained:
“This is how we often live our lives. We focus only on the black dot—our worries, fears, and struggles—while ignoring the countless blessings surrounding us. But what if we shifted our attention? What if we saw the full picture?”
A Simple Tool to Shift Energy
The next time something upsets you:
Stop. Pause before reacting.
Press the spot between your brows and say: CANCEL, CLEAR.
Visualize your heart as a radiant star, sending love and light to every cell in your body. Let this energy balance, harmonize, and restore your inner peace.
Grounding & Taking Conscious Action
Spend time in nature.
Move your body…walk, dance…exercise
Connect through prayer or meditation.
Set positive intentions—then take inspired action. Start with small structure action steps.
As we shift our focus, we not only change our personal reality, but we collectively elevate the world.
With love,
