Fire walking thoughts...

Woke up this morning excited and nervous for the day ahead. It seems as though I have a lot of unanswered questions:
What does one wear to a fire walking ceremony?
Is foot cream a good ideals bad idea?
Is the formeldahide in my nail polish flame resistant?
Should I have I been eating an anti-inflammatory diet?
Does fish oil really put out fires?
Maybe I should have read up on levitation.
LOL -Now you all know why I meditate.

Looking forward to a life changing day!
Let the fun begin!

Coaching myself for the Fire Walk

My 4:30 wake up call was a little rough this morning. Starbucks wasn't enough to unleash the power within today.  I have arrived in New York and their is excitement is in the air.  Feels like a strange new age rock concert is about to begin. There are a lot of overly happy people and big Prevost buses around here!   The sun came out so I headed off to Manhattan to find some shopping therapy and hang out in the park. Most importantly, I found this huge WholeFoods that I read about. (I know, grocery shopping while on vacation is pathetic - but I can't help it). It was amazing! Set up like a market, with everything you can dream up, so big I got lost. Everything super fresh, neat displays, samples through out, even a pub inside the store with imported organic beers. Good thing my room has a fridge! As I spent the day traveling around on my own I had the chance to think about my life happenings, and the events unfolding tomorrow (The Fire Walk). I began to contemplate the concept of what it takes to really commit to do something that seems like a huge challenge - perhaps to big and too scary for some.   I think it comes down to believing in yourself. Knowing your strong enough. Believing in yourself comes from making a commitment to face your fears and find a way - no matter what. You decide you won't wait for others to figure it out for you. If you decide to focus on what you have committed to achieve, then following through by taking action in the direction of your desires, the solutions must unfold. Could it be that easy? And haven't you noticed, solutions usually come just when we think that there are no other options, but we try one more time. What is it that you really want but are afraid to commit to? For just a few minutes, in your mind's eye, see yourself as having achieved your goal. Hold that in your mind, feel it in your bones. That's who you really are. That's you facing your fears, breaking through old beliefs.  Anything is possible when you believe in yourself! I think the caffeine is finally kicking in!

Preparing to Unleash the Power Within

I'm heading to New York to Walk on Fire!  Finally after years of absorbing everything Tony Robbins has created, I'm going to immerse myself in 4 full days of Tony Robbins in the flesh! I'm so excited (and nervous.  I've had several dreams of missing the Fire Walk.  The first day after he's pumped us up, we get to conquer our fears but literally walking on fire.  Almost everyone I talk to thinks this is crazy - I really can't wait.  The other times in my life that I've had the opportunity to face my fears (jumping out of a plane, racing on Mosport race track, performing in front of 50,000 people...) I've also been scared, but then exhilarated when it's over.  I don't expect this to be any different...

The other aspect of this conference I'm most looking forward to is gaining a new perspective of what's possible in life.  I think most of us wait until we are backed into a corner to contemplate what where really made of.  I'm hoping to learn how to create a new level of inspiration to change my mediocre habits, to fight everyday for what I really want, and to live consistently from a place of positivity and inner strength.  Don't we all just want to live with Passion?
