Isn’t it strange that we need an actual holiday to remind us to be thankful?

I know that many of you who read my articles don’t live in the US and for many, where you live there is no such holiday as ‘Thanksgiving’.  However, wherever you are in the world, please accept my gratitude as you read on you’ll know why I’m specifically talking to you .

I know that at this time of year you’re probably pretty busy however,  I think you will see that by investing a few minutes to read this article will prove well worth your time.
No matter what country you are living in, right now, let me ask you to be honest and answer this question:

How much time do you spend in genuine gratitude?

I’m sure you’ve noticed that very day there seems to be a million new things to do, every day it can seem difficult to slow down enough so you can catch a little down time.  Maybe you turn on the TV to unwind, only to once again be assaulted with the news of doom and gloom.

Most of the time, most people are running around like chickens with their heads cut off doing more and more, while feeling less and less connected, to themselves or anyone else.
The result is that most people are running on empty!
So, in a crazy hectic world what can we do to fill up a little?

Right now let me challenge you to STOP and take a moment to become aware of the blessings in your life.

There is a wonderful ‘new’ movement of interest in manifestation.
Perhaps you have read about it in my books or have heard me talk about it either at a workshop, my podcasts or in a tele-program: Quantum Resonance energy is the necessary ingredient for manifestation.  Well, one of the most powerful quantum energies for manifestation is gratitude.

Okay, you need to stop skimming for a moment and really take this in, because by gratitude I mean genuine heartfelt, preferably eyeball-to-eyeball or at least heart-to-heart connection. In other words, delivered with real meaning rather than some perfunctory…”thanks“.

Recognizing what you have and genuinely appreciating it does not have to be built on guilt or the complacency of ; ‘I don’t have the right to ask for more, I’m so much better off than those less fortunate’.

Genuine appreciation can come from stopping and considering all the things that go by each day that can so easily get taken for granted; the smile on a child’s face as they say ‘hello’ or ‘goodbye’ to you.

Getting a call from your partner, friend, sibling, or family member to genuinely ask how you are doing. Being able to breath and smelling the flowers or even coffee.

How about gratitude for having the strength to do what you need to and desire to do.  Or knowing there is someone, somewhere who loves you.  Receiving kindness, whether it was a smile, food, a kind word, a gentle kiss, or even this article.

I’ve been speaking around the world to thousands of people for many years now and I want to stop and say:

This Thanksgiving and everyday, I am grateful for you… Yes, I am talking to you!

If you’ve been following my work at all you already know that I have a dream…

My dream is to raise consciousness. Now you may be saying; “what the heck does that mean?”

Raising consciousness means being able to assist people all over the world in knowing that they are truly powerful, that you have the power to create the life that your heart and soul cries out to live.

I am truly grateful to you because through you I get to live my dream, my purpose, my mission. You, my friends, spiritual family, students and unstoppable team are the fuel that moves me forward. I know that I am the voice of something bigger than myself and you carry that voice

out into the world and in so doing, share in my mission, my dream, my purpose.  I am truly grateful because maybe, just maybe, I have had some influence in waking up your soul, in inspiring your heart, in letting you know you are truly magnificent!

I am grateful to you…You, who are committed to growth. You, who are no longer willing to settle for mediocrity. You, who stand up and fight to be free, even from the prison of your mind.

I believe that the education we offer at Baron Mastery Institute is a way out of the mental emotional jails we can lock ourselves in.

Thank you for inspiring me with your feedback, emails, phone calls, photos,  testimonials, courage, vulnerability and your stories of how your life has changed using the skills, tools and knowledge you received from us at Baron Mastery Institute.

I love taking the time to read and hear them all. They are all fuel in my tank to keep going.

Your work on yourself and your support of our collective mission keeps me believing we can raise the consciousness of this magnificent planet.

Thank you to my beloved bride, best friend and partner, the sweetness in my life and my guru of kindness, my inspiration: Renuka.
Each day I am grateful for her and for the work I did to clear my poop in order to attract this amazing woman into my life more than a decade ago.
Renuka, you are the light in my heart, my greatest inspiration and biggest supporter, you have held me when I could have been crushed and in that moment your love and strength kept me walking my path when I felt crippled…thank you!
May I suggest that once a year, maybe right now:

Take out your pen and journal and write a list of whom and what you are grateful for.

Once you have done that, I would suggest that you  go and buy some thank you cards and write notes of gratitude. At least send an email or make a phone call to those people. (I like cards because some people are uncomfortable taking in gratitude and nobody can interrupt or dismiss written words).

Someone said to me once “it must be wonderful to touch all these people’s lives”.  My reply was and still is that it is wonderful, however, what is equally wonderful is that you touch mine just as much.

Thank you from the depths of everything I am and all I can become.
I look forward to meeting you for the first time or seeing you again soon.

Remember; nothing can crush you unless you allow it…
Aspire to greatness for that is your true nature!
Your value far outweighs your circumstances.

With my love and sincere gratitude,
Dõv…

P.S. I look forward to reading your comments and feedback.

P.P.S. If you found this message valuable, feel free to send this to your friends.

If you don’t feel worthy, if you are carrying shame that was put on you, or you put on yourself, there’s a good chance that you are resonating at a level of being worthless. The result will be that whatever you do for income will likely be a way for you to give of yourself away too cheaply.  This of course is another powerful qualifier of your lack of value and your ego-mind gets to be right, telling you that you’re a victim, and it’s not your fault, there’s nothing you can do about ‘it’.

Bull!

It’s time to step up: Deal with the guilt, shame, and crappy self worth; you are not a victim, unless you decide that’s what you are.

Start by making the decision to forgive yourself, and while you’re at it consider all the people you need to forgive because that’s not adding anything good to your resonance field either.

Very Important Point: Having read the last paragraph again I need to make something crystal clear:

Do not believe all the crap you’ve been feed about forgiving everyone else first, that ‘forgiveness is a holy path’. Here’s why most of the people I’ve met who are preaching this kind of fertilizer are by enlarge emotionally shut down, full of  buried resentment, topped off with a plastic smile.

That my friends is not, never will be, forgiveness.

I do agree that forgiveness can be a holy path, however, it needs to be ‘healthy forgiveness.’

Healthy Forgiveness has a very important level of accountability. In order to truly forgive we must first take full accountability for our part in whatever it was, (That doesn’t mean finding a new reason to beat the crap out of yourself) as well as seeing ‘their’ part in it.

Bottom line; not forgiving doesn’t help you or anyone else, but know this; healthy forgiveness has nothing to do with forgetting. And in truth:

There is no real forgiveness of another until we learn to forgive ourselves. ~Dõv Baron

Carrying around all that guilt, shame and resentment is like carrying an anti abundance shield, so take my advice and dump it like a bad enchilada. It’s up to you, what I want you to know whether you believe it or not, whether you are experiencing it or not, this is an abundant universe.  So drop your abundance shield, forgive yourself and decide what you need to do next. Or to put it another way:

Forgive and Let The Abundance Flow!

I look forward to your comments and feedback.

Until next time live with courage, Dov…

Imagine for a moment that you grew up in some village that is cut off from almost everyone outside the village and in your village everyone tells you and everyone else in the village that 4+4 = 7 .

Somewhere inside you there is a deep knowing that this is incorrect. However, everyone who surrounds you tells you 4+4=7. The village newspaper says 4+4=7; the village radio station says 4+4=7, your mother, father, sister, brother and everyone you know all agree 4+4=7.  The truth is that everyone in the village is going to be willing to fight to hold onto their collective reality and…

it will take courage to stand up and say “no” and do what is right for you, your heart and soul.

Do you now begin to understand how hard it can be to stand in your truth when you are confronted with this ‘truth’ at every turn? Do you see how easy it would be to just go along with what they are saying? In fact you may even begin to think you are a little crazy for thinking differently than they do. That 4+4=7 could be about money, however it could just as easily be a message about health, finding an excellent life partner or anything else you desire.

Here’s the news: You don’t have to fight to achieve abundance ; the ‘Truth’ is that it naturally flows to you and all of us . What you must be willing to fight against is the limited, restrictive mindset that bombards you. Because if you cannot fight beyond the conditioning your ego-mind will never see beyond your own conditioning and the messages you are being fed every single day.

We’ve talked about how important it is to understand that money, wealth and abundance doesn’t have to be hard to achieve, even in an economic downturn. However, as I’ve said many times that doesn’t mean you get to sit around nurturing some false idea of entitlement, some false concept that the world owes you something.

Yes you are unique in your expression in the world, but unique doesn’t make you ‘special’ or ‘better than’, that’s just ego shit.

To achieve the kind of abundance you may dream of, you must express your unique value in the world, and that my friends will take effort. In simple terms you will have to get off your bum, go out into the world, face the possible rejection and peddle your wares.

Now even though you don’t actually have to fight to get abundance and all you have to do is let it in , that is, much easier said than done. Here’s why: You don’t need to fight for the wealth but the irony is that you very well may need to fight to break out of the personal and collective conditioning that says you do and the ego-mind says is true.

It’s an interesting irony isn’t it?  Just think about it for a moment or two . You live, (as do we all) inside a system that tells you at every turn that money, wealth and real abundance is hard to come by , and even though you may know at some deeper level, that’s just not true , you (we) are bombarded with information that says it is true.  We are conditioned to want more, more, more, but what do we really need? What is it that’s really important to us? And what if it’s free?

Once again I remind you this is the time to turn fear into power! To stand up and follow your heart, to grab a hold of the opportunities that are knocking at your door.

Our modes of thinking and the way we have operated in the world are coming to a close; we must embrace change and opportunity at every turn.

Those who choose to quickly embrace change will flourish.

Again: It is time to invest in you! What does that mean? Invest emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and despite the economic scare tactics, FINANCIALLY too.

Invest in your most valuable asset, your development . It’s time to invest in your hopes, your dreams, your heart and your soul. Invest in what takes you out of the limited mindset . Remember that fear is perpetrated to keep us ignorant and only those who are willing to know shall be truly free.

Personally I’d rather play with the ego instead of fighting it. I did that recently:  Click here to see a great, (and FUN) video for you that show what the ego wants verses want is at the center for the Self.

Feel free to comment on the video here and on youtube.

And send it to your friends to view.

As always, I look forward to your feedback.

Until next time, live with courage, Dov…

Let’s set something absolutely straight: Money is not wealth.

Money is a result of your efforts at work or even what seems to be good fortune, but it is not wealth of itself. Wealth is a state of mind where you experience abundance in every part of your life.

To have more
money you must first have wealth, at least at a consciousness level.

You see, just as money is not wealth, therefore the lack of it is not poverty. Wealth and poverty start in your mind and result in your bank account.

When a person has poverty consciousness, there is a part of them that is uncomfortable with having an abundance of money and, as a result, they subconsciously set themselves up to get rid of it.

Sound crazy? look at this:

More than 90% of lottery winners eventually end up in a worse financial position than they were in before they won the money? It sounds impossible… but it is true.

You can now see that if you’re looking to experience wealth in your life, and don’t have wealth consciousness, it’s going to be virtually impossible, not only to get it, but to keep it.

QRF is the science of “karma”.

In many of my previous articles I’ve spoken about our quantum resonance field (QRF) and that our QRF is responsible for all the recurring patterns in our lives. Unfortunately, these patterns are often negative, or at least out of sync with your true desires. This means your QRF could without you even knowing it be pushing what you want away.

The best way to change these patterns is change your QRF and you can begin doing that right now by asking yourself some great questions like:

• What have I believed about people who have money?
• What beliefs have I accepted about myself just because someone else told me they were true?

These are just a couple of questions that can put you on the path to changing your QRF and therefore changing what you attract into your life.

I want to share with you what I discovered after years of research.

It’s not nearly as important how you go about “making
money“, as it is what you feel about wealth and money. It makes all the
difference.

You may have heard things like that before, but it just didn’t make sense to your “logical” mind. I mean you have to work hard to make a lot of money…right? Actually that’s wrong!

In fact, depending on your attitude toward work and money, the harder you work, the worse off you can become!

So, if you’d like to possess the thing every self-made millionaire in the world has (and it’s not $), you’ll need to Resonate Riches.

Remember there are no accidents
in the quantum realm; there is only that which is in-phase or out of phase with
your QRF.

created out of thin air go take a look at http://www.ResonatingRiches.com

I look forward to reading your comments.

Own your worth, Dov…

I know that many of you who read my articles don’t live in the US and for many, where you live there is no such holiday as ‘Thanksgiving‘. However, where ever you are I am sending you my gratitude.

I know this article is a bit longer than usual but I think you will see that by investing a few minutes to read will prove well worth your time.

No matter what country we live in, right now let me ask you this:  

How much time do you spend in genuine gratitude?

On a daily basis most people you are bombarded: There seems to be a million new things to do every day and so you try and catch a little down time.  Maybe you turn on the telly only to once again be assaulted with the doom and gloom of what we are told is a failing economy.

Most of the time, most people run around like chickens with their heads cut off doing more and more, feeling less and less connected to themselves or anyone else. The result is that most people are running on empty!

In a crazy hectic world what can we do to fill up a little?

Now please pay attention; by gratitude I mean genuine heartfelt, preferably eyeball-to-eyeball or at least heart-to-heart connection. In other words, delivered with real meaning rather than some perfunctory…”thanks”.

We live in a time of pusuing more and more, and there is nothing wrong with wanting more of your heart’s desires. 

However, recognizing what you have and genuinely appreciating it does not have to be built around the complacency of; ‘I don’t have the right to ask for more, I’m so much better off than those less fortunate’.

Think of all the things that go by each day that can so easily get taken for granted; the smile on a child’s face as they say ‘hello’ or ‘goodbye’ to you.

P.S. Leave me your comments in the comments box and If you found this message valuable, feel free to send it to a friend.

It was in that moment that you felt completely alive, excited to be on this planet, enthusiastic to be significant, and you were probably inspired to make a difference.  It was one of those moments where you knew this is the kind of life you were born to live… everyday.    

How did you get to that moment?

You decided, that’s how! You got to that glorious moment via a decision and what would your life have been without that one decision?

Decisions are the doorway to change.

Change starts from a moment of decision.

Think about a decision you made that changed your life. Now think about the decision that CAN change your life. What are you waiting for?

You can passively wait for one of those moments to arrive… Or you can make NOW one of those moments.

A life lived without passion is a live only half lived.   

                                                  ~ Dõv Baron

Everything you have experienced in your life has been a result of choices…choices you’ve made for yourself or you allowed someone else to make for you.  Choices are simply  decisions moving you through from one moment to next.  

The question to ask yourself is: are you moving from one magnificent moment to the next or are you ‘choosing’ to not make a decision and as a result living a passionless existence.

You can live with more passion by starting with just one decision.  Living a passion filled life may require different decisions than the ones you currently make when you wake up. However, you can passively wait to experience another spontaneous moment of passion or you can decide to make now the moment that propels you to the life you were born to live.  

This is the only way to live with passion and become who you were born to be.

Seeing the faces of many races filled with hope inspired me as I watched the audience listening to Barack Obama’s spectacular acceptance speech. I glanced out of my window onto a cloudless night and saw the last quarter of the moon and in that moment I had a deep sense that something other than a moon cycle or even a presidency was coming to an end.

History was made in the United States on the evening of November 4^th 2008. Not only was the first man of colour elected to office as the American President, but more people came out to vote than in the history of the country.

I have to say I’m excited: Not just for what a new presidency can bring, but for something more important than that… You see it seems to me that over the last almost a decade people have gotten lazy and complacent. The media had served up super size portions of fear that the average person stuffed down by either pursuing more and more stuff or looking outside of themselves to either blame or solve “the problem”.

Something exciting is happening: This US Presidential Election has awakened a sleeping giant, a mighty force. A force that is growing not only in the US but also across the world.

It is a force that too many had dismissed as lazy and disinterested. However, this sleeping giant had begun to choke on the fear that was being force fed down its throat. The blessing is that the fear has awakened the giant to realize that the world must be changed. It will take the force of a new generation to do it. The sleeping giant, the force that has been awakened are the milenial’s, also known as generation WE, the young people are no longer sleeping, they are waking up on mass and reclaiming the planet. They are saying “Yes We Can!”

‘Generation WE’ is the largest generation on the planet, they far out number the baby boomer and this presidential election they came out to vote. They voted not just for Obama, they came out to vote for change. They came out to vote and in so doing they have made a statement that the giant is awake. What’s more, this giant is awakening all over planet earth. We can clearly see it in the US, however, remember that the largest portion of the Chinese nation are also generation WE and for that matter so are the Iranian’s.

Ladies and gentlemen the world is changing…

The time of entitlement and complacency is in its last quarter and we, Baby Boomers, Gen X’ers and WE’s can no longer wait for someone or something else to fix ‘it’.

As much as many people would like to think Obama will change the world, it’s unlikely to be changed by one man. However, it is certain that this world, our world, can be changed by the clear focus, intention and action of all of us. We don’t know the future, but I can tell you that it’s more important than ever to be ready for anything.

Open your heart, soul and mind to greater possibilities for yourself and the planet. Take action, take action today, do something to build your dream and in so doing commit to making the world a better place because you are in it!

Inspired, Dõv…

I put it to you that it’s all about leader-ship

Picture a sailboat out on the water sailing from L.A. to Hawaii. The Captain knows where she is going and even why she is going there. She sets sail on a beautiful sunny afternoon, there’s a warm breeze in her sails and the magnificent pacific is open and deeply inviting as the deep blue of the water reflects the clear blue of the sky above.

Suddenly, the wind picks up and with it the ocean’s waves begin to swell, clouds come rolling in turning a clear blue sky ominously grey. The sail begin to flap harshly against the ever building storm. The Captain remains cool, clear and proactive.  She knows where she’s going and realizes that she must change course a little in order to stay afloat, she tacks to the starboard aiming the boats nose more towards the wind. She does this not to far, but just enough, because she knows she must use this wind as the fuel to push her through and over the swell.

Our captain knows that in order to get to where she wants to go it is better to use what is coming at her to move her forward, even if it appears to be slightly off course. She knows that to become ridged and inflexible will not only not get her to her destination it may sink her, her ship and the dreams she caries with her.

You my friend are the captain of your own ship sailing towards a destiny, but what destiny is it?

The question is will you get wrecked on the economic rocks as the winds of change pick up and blow against you or will you adjust and use the change to push you even faster towards your destination? You can complain about the economic situation or you can use it. Find out how it might be really good for you. I know it can seem crazy, but even this simple shift can change what you begin attracting into your life. If you decide it’s all crap then you wouldn’t know opportunity if it came up and gave you a big wet kiss.

When it comes to being successful, those who not only survive the winds of change but embrace them are the ones who will appear ‘lucky’ while in fact they where the ones most willing to change and morph with whatever comes up.

I just spent a week in New York City, it’s a place I love. I was there with around 100 other people who are all committed to making a difference in this world and what I can tell you for sure is they like me are all willing to shift and change with whatever is coming at them. I challenge you to do the same…

We all agreed: this is not the time to pull back, but rather now is the time to invest more in yourself and your dream.

Stay focused in knowing where you’re going and at the same time flexible enough to do whatever needs to be done to get there.

Leave your comments below and in the next post I’ll talk about why you might want to let go of what you think is true.

Be well, Dov…

Master the Attracting Force at www.AttractingForce.com

Let me ask you: What are the lyrics to your soul’s song?  Listen carefully you’ll know… it’s the song that quietly plays in the back of your mind. You can hear it in the moments when you quiet the mind and open your heart.

Your dreams are gifts you receive from the creative force, you did not get them by mistake, treat them with respect, for they are your soul crying out for expression.

Your dreams and your often hidden desire to fulfill them are the calling of your soul to fulfill your purpose for being on the planet.

For dreams to become reality we must move them beyond the realm of hope and fantasy. You must be willing to invest what it takes to bring them to fruition, invest in your dreams with all your heart, your soul, your time, money and effort.  Don’t wait for others to give you approval that may never come.

When your heart and mind truly open to your soul dreams opportunities will appear… TAKE THEM!
