ich rutsch tiefer in dem Sessel und fühl mich benommen
When I was in my early 20s, I was extremely shy. I couldn’t approach women, I had no idea how to properly introduce myself to strangers, let alone make small talk. I’d heard that positive affirmations and “happy thoughts” could bury my fears and help me build the confidence I needed. I was certain that if I told myself I was great in a crowd, I would be great in a crowd. So, for months on end, I walked around all day long repeating over and over in my head, “I am highly pleasing to myself in the presence of other people.” In the meantime, I forgot to stop repeating and start living.
Instead of propelling my social life into the next dimension, my record-player thoughts played again and again in my head and I felt completely ridiculous! My quiet self-talk actually reminded me that I was SHY instead of helping me to overcome it. I didn’t need a positive self-talk mantra to overcome shyness. I didn’t need to pile more thoughts on top of the limiting thoughts I already had. I needed to LET GO of my shy thoughts. It was then that I learned The Sedona Method.
I learned The Sedona Method quickly and easily and finally learned how to release the limiting thoughts and emotions that actually made me shy. I learned to LET GO of my shyness, permanently, and now I speak before large groups as part of my job!Positive thinking takes an immense amount of effort and, for most people, it doesn’t even work! It only covers the negative thoughts with positive ones and can still leave you crying on the inside. You’ve probably been around someone who smiles on the outside while screaming on the inside. It’s hard to be around those people; they send a real mixed message to others.
Imagine that your subconscious mind is a barrel. This barrel has a golden lining representing our unlimited potential. This golden lining is covered by a bunch of rotten apples that represent our limiting emotions: apathy, grief, fear, lust, anger, and pride. Even if you covered the golden lining over with good apples (happy thoughts and happy feelings), what would eventually happen to the apples? They would ROT.
I recommend emptying the barrel so you can discover the golden lining that is already present and available in your life at this very moment. You can’t see it because your apples, bad and good, have buried you under. Remove them by letting go of your limiting thoughts, feelings and beliefs and your thinking, feeling and life experience will be a thousand times more positive, with not a rotten apple in sight.
As you work with this simple process in your life, you will find that with less effort you will have a more positive mental attitude and your life will reflect this. You will finally start to have, be or do what you have always desired.
haay, somehow it relieved me. life is what we make it. i've covered myself with lotsa rotten apples, now i smell like rotten apples. i wonder what to do with these rotten apples. any suggestion?

hey you, here's what really happened
way back into love
I've been living with cobwebs overhead,
I've been sleeping with clothes all over my bed,
I've been messy for so long,
Trapped in the past,
I just can't seem to move on.
I've been hiding all my cokes and creams away,
Just in case I ever eat them again someday,
I've been setting aside dime,
To clear a little space in the corners of my room!
All I want to do is find a way back into love.
I can't make it true without a way back into love.
I've been shining but the shoes refuse to shine,
I've been driving but i just don't see the signs,
I know that it's out there,
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere!
I've been looking for someone to fix my light,
Not a candle to get me through the night,
I could use some direction,
And I'm open to your suggestions.
All I want to do is find a way back into love.
I can't make it through without a way back into love.
And if I open my eyes again,
I guess I'm hoping my room's spick and span in the end!
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation
All I want to do is find a way back into love,
I can't make it through without a way back into love,
And if I open my heart to you,
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do,
And if you help me to start again,
You know that I'll be there for you in the end!
