My new LOA group, we meet every Thursday evening :o)

So I had my second LOA meet up with my Mom and 3 others and it went so well! We meet here in Klamath Falls at Elmers Restaurant at 6:30 PM, casual, no host, girls night out sort of thing.

The first one last week transpired because I was all signed up to teach a class on the LOA and due to lack of participation the Community College canceled it so I am on for Winter term and shortened my class. Sooo anyhow it all worked out because due to some negativity and lessons that needed to be learned on my part I dislocated my knee the day that my actual class would have started. So I get a call from an old friend who I had reconnected with a little bit due to her daughter and my stepdaughter being friends, she asks if I was the one doing the class? I tell her yes and she informs me that she signed up for it and was super bummed that it was not going to happen and could we get together anyway. YES I say and so we agreed to start it in a few weeks due to My knee and her up coming trip to see her sick Dad.

The first meeting was great, there were 4 of us. I advertised a bit on a few free sites in the community about our little group get together and got one taker. We just talked about how we all got to the LOA and what we all knew about it. We wrapped it up with an assignment to write our perfect day.

Last night was our second meeting and we gained a person so there were 5 of us. We all ordered a little something yummy, OK I did, cinnamon swirl french toast made from a sticky bun YUM!!!! We talked and talked about our perfect day, about how once you discover the LOA and how to use it there is no turning back. We discussed how when you find yourself bringing negative things into your life it is so easy to turn it around, see the positive and move forward to what you really want.

I am looking so forward to next week and our growing group of like minded souls getting together and keeping each other on track.

Stay tuned for more updates on our LOA group.

Who are you spending your time with?

Do you surround yourself with people that are like minded or energy drainers? This is a big part of the person you are in all aspects of your life. Really take a look at your friends, family, co workers... are there people that support your ideas, dreams and ways of thinking? If yes then great you are on the right track, keep it up.

If the answer is no it is time to reevaluate your social circle. this may be one of the hardest things to do but you cant spend your time and energy with people who are constantly trying to bring you down. Their are huge emotions tied to most of these people so if they are constantly telling you how bad everything is and cutting up your ideas it is next to impossible to let these thigns roll off your back.

How to make this chenge? Join some groups, classes, even message boards or blogs of people that you would like to befriend/become. Choose others that will be like mentors. Sometimes it is not even important to for yo to know them, just read their book and take what you can from them. As you get deeper into your goals and intensions you will attract like minded people.

Does this mean that you have to tell some of your not so supportive family members and friends to step off? Not at all, you can be honest with them and ask them to no longer bring you all the bad news, you can be passive about it and ask them what gret things are going on with them or you can jsut stop hanging out with them. As you become who you want to be they will either recognize yor new outlook and disappear or get on board.

Just remember it is not your job to change others, lead by exampl and allow them to be where they are in their own journey.

I hope this helps you on your Journey to a better life.
