This morning, I was thinking about the two bald eagles I saw on Friday, and I can’t help but believe that most people driving along 116th St. in Fishers did not see the two massive birds hanging out and flying around. I could have missed seeing them had I been distracted by my phone, other thoughts, or even changing songs on the radio. There is no shortage of distractions today, which might keep you from receiving important messages from the Universe—you might be missing your bald eagles because you aren’t paying attention. Not only might distractions keep you from receiving messages, but they can also be getting in the way of you getting connected with your Self; spending time on social media, getting pulled into media headlines, or participating in gossip all keep you from spending time with your Self—time which will help you get closer to your authentic life. You don’t need to give those distractions up in totality, but reducing the distracted time will give you the time and space to connect to the things that matter most as you pursue your authentic life. The more you experience moments like I did Friday, the more you’ll want to make sure you reduce the distractions in your life and become more in tune with the Universe. JC |

We are placing our desire to help others, often rooted in love and coming from a good place, above taking care of our Selves. It might take a while to...
There’s been a lot of conversation, even controversy, about Justin Bieber’s Coachella performance. I’ve only seen clips and read about the YouTube sing-along, but I’m a fan of what he did. First, it seems that his fans—his true fans loved the stroll down memory lane, which is what really matters. Who cares what the media has to say when they aren’t the ones he created his music for? Second, and I’m not sure if this is true, but it sounds plausible, that by playing his songs on YouTube and...
Living your Authentic Life requires you to be optimistic. The energy associated with pessimism will never vibrate at a frequency as high as your Authentic Life. Currently, there is an abundance of pessimism in the world. And while it’s understandable why pessimism persists, it keeps those who default to it unhappy and prevents them from living their Authentic Life. Optimism doesn’t mean ignoring the injustices in the world. Optimism doesn’t mean that you don’t get upset or sad at times....
