Some Inspirational Words about The Process of Creation

August 11, 2010 in Encouraging Quotes, Heartbreak Quotes, Inspirational Words, Life Qoutes, Motivational Sayings by Veronica Hay | No comments

Create something today…

A poem, a blog post, a handmade card, a painting, a song,
a souffle, a software application.

The form is unimportant, only the passion matters.
And the calling of your own soul to the aliveness of
BEING in this moment.

Seek not perfection and release all judgment.
Simply put your heart into it.

Stamp your name upon it, imbue it with love and
PRESENT it to the world.

It matters more than you know!

Then celebrate it.
Celebrate you.
Celebrate the life that gave it to you.

C’mon… We’re waiting!

Inspirational Words About – The Lesson of the Morning Glory

July 27, 2010 in Inspirational Words, Life Qoutes, Motivational Sayings by Veronica Hay | 1 comment

"inspirational words"Today, some inspirational words about the morning glory…

My mother-in-law passed away  late yesterday afternoon and my first morning glory of the season bloomed that same morning.  I believe morning glories are here to teach us a very profound lesson about life and about death. They have touched my life in so many ways and I have written about that. I thought today would be a good day to include my story. Enjoy and have a glorious day.

Love and blessings, Veronica

The Lesson of the Morning Glory

I planted seeds in my little garden this year.

I have never planted seeds before because I am not a very patient person and waiting for the little green shoots to rise above the ground was just too much for me. But this year, I thought I would give it a try. I thought it would be a good metaphor for me to plant something and watch it grow, much as I have many times, planted thoughts, dreams and affirmations and watched many of them become a reality.

And so in the Spring of this year, I planted my garden. I chose many types of flowers and Read the rest of this entry »

7 Tips For Finding Your Life’s Purpose

July 8, 2010 in Inspirational Words by Veronica Hay | No comments

7 Tips For Finding Your Lifes Purpose

Today's Garden Picture of the Day - My Garden Angel

Here are some tips that may help you uncover what is already waiting inside you.

1. Make a list of all of the things you loved to do as a child. Do you have an especially happy memory of something you really enjoyed doing? Something that you were complimented on and felt extremely proud of.

2. What are your favorite kinds of books? Do you love romance novels, arts and crafts books, mystery stories, new age and metaphysical titles? If you are not sure, visit www.amazon.com and check out their classifications.

3. When you have some free time, how do you spend it? Alone or in the company of friends and family. Exploring the city or visiting the country.

4. What do people compliment you about? If you can’t think of anything, then simply ask a few of your closest friends and business associates what they appreciate about you, what they see as your strengths and talents. You may be very surprised by their answers. Asking a co-worker will give you a much different perspective than asking a family member but both have value in helping you uncover your brilliance.

5. What are you especially proud of having accomplished in your life? This doesn’t have to be about winning awards. It could just be about how you have reached out to offer a helping hand to someone who really needed it.

6. What qualities, talents, gifts do you admire in others? Make a list of the people in your world and beside each one, jot down their strong points and the things you love about them. Be sure to let them know as well and make their day.

7. If you had all the time in the world and money was no longer an issue, what would you really like to do? Imagine what your perfect day would look like from beginning to end. What would you have for breakfast? What is the view like when you open your drapes? How do you spend your afternoon, where, and with whom? How do  you feel as you close your eyes at the end of your perfect day?

Doing this exercise will help you to get to  know yourself  a little better and give you more insight into wherever your true purpose lies.

“There is a giant asleep within every man. When the
giant awakes, miracles happen.” ~ Frederick Faust

You came here for a reason. There is something that only YOU can do and the world is waiting for it.

I wish you Godspeed on your journey.

Passion… Purpose… and Legacy…

Passion... Purpose... and Legacy...

Today's Garden Picture of the Day - An Orange Calla Lily from My Balcony Garden

What is your individual purpose? What would you like to be able to say is your legacy? I believe that each of us wants to find our purpose in life, our raison d’etre or reason for being. We need to have a motive to get out of bed in the morning. We want to feel alive and passionate about something. Something that makes a difference in the world. We are not alone in this and yet many of us are still searching for that purpose.

Purpose is much bigger than goals, yet we are advised in many of the self help and productivity books to set goals. However, If you are aligned with your purpose, the goals just fall into place.

I was friends with a fellow who set a goal to find the woman of his dreams, have a successful business and own his own beautiful home with a Mercedes Benz parked in the driveway, all by the age of forty. He did manage to achieve all of it and yet he admitted to me that none of it had brought him the peace and happiness that he had aspired to. He did not feel truly content or fulfilled and this really surprised and disappointed him. For him, these goals didn’t really come from the inside. They were simply based on what he thought he should do or have in order to look good and feel respected by his peers. They were more in alignment with what “society” tells us will make us happy than what our heart is saying. They came from the outside. Purpose has to come from the inside.

I was particularly touched by an email I received recently from Read the rest of this entry »

You Will Survive And Even Thrive.

June 29, 2010 in Inspirational Words by Veronica Hay | 3 comments

I have always been captivated by pansies. Their soft velvety touch. They appear to be so delicate, yet they are amazingly strong. The ones shown here are from my balcony garden and have survived heavy rains, strong winds and a snow storm.

They have shown me that if I just surrender to what is and let go, without trying to fight against it, I will survive and even THRIVE. Their smiling faces are a testament to that and always make me smile.

We can learn so much from flowers if we are open to the messages they bring forth. They are one of our greatest gifts on this planet.

Delicate and very beautiful - yet amazingly strong - just like YOU!

Not Rich Yet? – 7 Tips to Find Out Why and Change It!

June 14, 2010 in Inspirational Words by Veronica Hay | No comments

You’ve taken all the abundance courses, read all the prosperity books, watched the latest and greatest inspirational movies, listened to all the motivational audios, and you’re still struggling.

Here are some possible reasons why. Perhaps you can relate to some of them.

1. You’re stuck in the “pay off”. What is the pay off for staying where you are now. I knew of a woman who complained constantly that her husband never paid any attention to her. She was diagnosed with cancer and all of a sudden her husband was at her side, tending to her every need. Shortly thereafter, she became cancer free and her husband went back to his old ways, much to her dismay. Months later, the cancer was back and so was her husband. My point: you may be saying that your desire is to be wealthy, but if wealth is not showing up in your life, then take a good look at “what is”. There may be some clues there as to why.

2. You’re afraid to hurt or lose someone you love. Who would you hurt / lose if you suddenly became rich? Would you Read the rest of this entry »

Remember The Love – Some Inspirational Words

June 8, 2010 in Inspirational Words by Veronica Hay | 3 comments

"inspirational words - fairy"

My Garden Fairy

These last few days have been for me, a dark night of the soul. Every belief I held, every truth I thought I knew and every answer I had, have all been shattered.

And even though I was surrounded by people, I felt alone, abandoned and afraid.

And yet, through all of it, I also felt higher, as though someone or something were carrying me, lifting me, loving me. And so this time instead of running from the pain, despair and confusion, I embraced it and what happened surprised me. The pain, despair and confusion became my doorway to freedom. All sorts of insights and inspirations flooded into my consciousness. It was as though I had access to a different time and place and was able to see with new eyes.

I have been searching for the truth all of my life in so many places. I thought there was only one truth and that I came here to find that truth and that if I went to enough seminars and took enough courses and read enough books and did enough affirmations that somehow I would find it. Enough, enough, enough already! It was never enough. I was never enough. And now I have found myself in this place and I realized that …

No one can tell you what your truth is or how to get there.

They can only soften the path a little.

But if you are awake and alive, there will come a time when

you will have to examine your own heart.

During this time, I thought often of Read the rest of this entry »

Law of Attraction …Getting Clear and Focusing on What You Want!

June 3, 2010 in Inspirational Words by Veronica Hay | 1 comment

inspirational sayings - pink flowerI have some questions for you this morning.

How do you see the world? Do you see the glass as half full or half empty?

Do you complain and focus on what you don’t have instead of what you do have?

Do you take secret enjoyment in someone else’s failure or embarrassment?

Do you judge others? Do you see yourself as a victim? (Don’t worry – we have all been there at one time or another.)

Do you use the words SHOULD and CAN’T a lot, as in “I should do this” and “I can’t afford it.”

Are you resentful of another’s success or do you celebrate it?

Do you look for the worst or the best in people?

Do you see the world as a safe place full of people who are happy to support you? Or do you see the world as fearful, a place where you always have to be on guard, in case someone might steal from you, lie to you or hurt you in some way?

In other words, what do you believe about the world and focus on for the majority of your day?

Remember that what you focus on expands. You are much more powerful than your realize. Your thoughts are Read the rest of this entry »

My name is Veronica Hay and I am an inspirational author. I have been producing a daily inspirational post for the past 14 years and have received hundreds of requests from my subscribers.

And so, I came up with the following Read the rest of this entry »

Self Improvement Anyone? (Or Do We Really Need To Be Fixed?)

May 12, 2010 in Inspirational Words by Veronica Hay | 1 comment

inspirational words - window boxThere is a proliferation of self improvement products and services in the marketplace these days. Courses, workshops, books, e-books, classes, teleclasses, videos, audio tapes, CD’s, DVD’s etc. And there appears to be more coming all of the time.

Some people go from one book to another, one workshop to another, one guru to another, in an never ending attempt to be fixed, hoping to some day get it right, to ultimately uncover the secret to all things from happiness, enlightenment, success and everything in between.

So many of us are left disillusioned, discouraged and defeated, feeling worse than when we started, frustrated and even saddened that none of this stuff seems to really work for us in a big enough way that makes us feel victorious or even good about ourselves.

But what if we never needed to be fixed in the first place. What if we Read the rest of this entry »
