Daily Reminders Values Wakeup Tape As you gently cross the border between the world of dreams and the world of conscious life, I want to offer
you heartfelt greetings Mark, and welcome you to another beautiful experience of life. Once again you have the
opportunity to open to the ecstasy of the moment and create a world that expresses your Love, Joy and Creativity.
You are committed to: Living Faith You are committed to Living Faith. As you relax into the moment and experience a 360-degree awareness, you can simply notice that you are not the Karma that is all around you. You are Consciousness, the Creator, and your whole experience is your gift to yourself. So, praise the creation and everything in it. It is the ultimate learning experience, custom designed to provide you with every situation you need to realize your true, perfect, and creative nature by choosing faith in the face of fear. Who you are is the most incredible gift. Your essence naturally chooses the best possible course of action for your spiritual growth and long term happiness. You are continually surprised by the incredible wisdom of your natural, spontaneous responses that well up from your center in each moment. You open to these deep processes ever more easily as you come to recognize and trust their power. With each and every choice of faith you make throughout the day, you build the strength of your intuition and wisdom, and deepen your capacity for Joy, Love, and Creativity. You are continually opening to the ecstasy of your blossoming self. Mark, you are committed to Passionate Fun and Joyous Ecstasy. You experience intense positive emotions just being alive, and share that joy with everyone you meet and through everything you do. You are a contagious joy monster! The ecstasy flows through the channels of your body in waves of ever-increasing pleasure as you open to and notice your body being washed and cleansed by the healing energies. The entire universe is an ocean of rapturous joy that you resonate with and amplify. You find, create and appreciate fun and humor in every situation and encourage general silliness with your friends. Life is much too important to be serious about it. You can play any character or role fully and with elegance, appropriately breaking social norms and customs with glee. You are the Guardian of the Frames. The entire spectrum of human experience is fully available to you and fills your eyes with wonder and delight. Extreme emotions and perspectives flow through your awareness in a thrilling and entertaining parade of possibility and flexibility. You are a wild a crazy guy! Mark , you are committed to Pride and Life Mastery. You understand that you are not your mind, body, emotions, or any other existents. You are the soul/consciousness which experiences these and the clearing in which they exist. You use your mind, body, and emotions as the interface through which you experience life. Like a computer, they must be specifically programmed to translate and process incoming information a certain way, in order create optimal love, joy and beauty. You craft your behavior and thoughts on each level of consciousness with care and precision, setting incredibly high standards for yourself and the quality of your experience. You understand ever more clearly the difference between the practical, logistics of life and what is meaningful and valuable. Your decisions and actions are consciously aligned with your core intentions and express your soul on your sleeve. You lovingly train your mind and body consistently throughout each day. You use empowering frames and language, including metaphors and transformational vocabulary. You track any deviations from this path in a "diary of issues to resolve" and systematically resolve them. Each and every decision to enhance your patterns adds to your sense of wonder and pride. You are proud of who you are and what you have accomplished. You gracefully use the power of your will to take the actions you have determined in advance will make your dreams a reality, even when you are tired or busy. You focus on who you want to become, and strive to act in alignment with that at all times. Discipline is the exercise of the beauty muscle, and yours is growing strong. You demand more of yourself than anyone else could ever expect. To this end, you are committed to Living Your Truth with Courageous Integrity. In the moments of choice, you choose the emotion of courage and express what is most true for you in the face of fear. You understand that the largest frame of understanding wins. You know that perception is projection and that every drama you find yourself in has as its soul purpose your spiritual development. Therefore, you are committed to the Health and Vitality of your soul over your social position or material wealth. Your life is a process of discovery, where every encounter is a metaphoric experience, designed to teach you the nature of Spirit. Imagine that every other person in the world is a loving friend and actor, playing out his or her prescribed role in the drama you designed for yourself. If you try to fool another person, the world is a joke on you; when you love the other person, and treat them as if they were Jesus in disguise, you will create your heaven. You understand that truth is the foundation of love, joy, and creativity, and that fear is the servant of Satan sent to tempt you into illusion. You consistently and sometimes surprisingly experience the power that comes from remembering that your soul cannot be hurt by anything in the world. Because of this, you are willing and ready to recognize, speak, and act upon the deepest truth in every situation. You live and speak your truth, and the truth sets you free. Mark, you are committed to Love and Connection. You notice and enjoy the best qualities in every being you meet, and cherish their goodness. By opening your heart to them, you experience near overwhelming happiness. Every communication they offer is pure, unadulterated love, even their "negative" emotions are just more constricted forms of love and invaluable feedback as to how your behavior affects them. Remember, if the answer to a question is not "love," it can’t be very important. Love is the gateway to the Self. The decision to Love in any moment is the first and glorious step through that gateway. Imagine that each person is a long lost friend who you thought you would never see again. Perhaps they are a daughter, son, sister, brother, mother, father who you can love with total abandon and enjoy their entire personality. Just seeing them is an overwhelming gift and treat. You treat them with loving generosity, encouragement, and high expectations. By sharing your most meaningful experiences with other people, you open yourself to experience intense pleasure and satisfaction. You do things which make the people you care about feel special and cared for. Through this you create a heavenly existence, where everywhere you go, you are around people you love and who love you. You love deeply and are therefore deeply loved. Mark, You are committed to Vibrant Life and Energy. You thank God for the gift of life, as you relax into the feelings of joy which are the natural state of being alive. You feed your body high quality fuel and lots of water. You align your body for maximal skeletal integrity. You encourage and direct the energy flow of your body, letting it cleanse and purify your mind and emotions. You are becoming increasingly sensitive to the change and flow of energy in relation to your experiences. Your body is an exquisite instrument that gauges and interprets the inter and intra personal energies in your environment. As you cleanse it and balance it's energies through breathing, exercise, diet, and movement, you are cleansing the instrument and its dials, increasing its sensitivity and effectiveness. Through these energies you have incredible intuition and communication skills. You treat the sacred temple of your consciousness with respect and care. Mark You are committed to Rapturous Rationality and MindPlay. You take intense joy in the workings of your mind in understanding and integrating useful knowledge. You are constantly learning and integrating new information and perspectives on all levels of consciousness. You have playful and purposeful debates in which you learn the others point of view so well it becomes a part of you as one more resource. By working on your own values/goals and beliefs you comprehend ever deeper levels of yourself and ideas. You notice patterns within and between every medium, including Mindplay, music, art, organization, business, etc. The entire universe is a complex mental/emotional symphony, and you stand transfixed by the beauty with each new level you apprehend. You think, therefore you are enraptured with the intricate harmonies of life. Mark, you are In Love with this Earth and everything both Man and Nature have created. You have tremendous gratitude for each object and system in your awareness. The incredible complexity and harmony shouts at you to notice and appreciate it. Everywhere you look, beauty looks back at you. There is a sense of awe in the manifold nature of things and the incredible conveniences of modern society. You recognize the tremendous gift you have been given to be born into a space/time of such incredible wealth and comfort and give silent thanks to the creative geniuses of the past that have made it possible. Every existent is a metaphor and an example of the beauty inherent in the experience called life. Imagine that your every experience is an exquisite piece of art of barely comprehensible complexity and personal meaning. Your job: recognize and open to it. By doing this you transform each and every moment into a celebration and spread you joy to everyone you meet. You notice and appreciate the splendor of the universe all around you. Mark, You are a Powerful Force for Good in the Universe. By tapping into your essence and opening yourself to experience, you model through powerful vulnerability these traits: Justice, Love, Joy, Faith, and Vision. You continually discover and create useful and practical ways of using consciousness to enhance people’s experience of life. You have all the resources you need to create whatever beauty your heart can conceive. You lead the way for people everywhere to build their own dreams and visions. You earn the respect of people you respect, especially yourself. You are fastidious about giving credit where credit is due and holding people accountable to their commitments and responsibilities. You recognize and honor the intentions and essence of the people you interact with. You express and encourage an ecstatic experience of daily life. You are a being of light that illuminates every aspect of your world. People find you to be attractive, powerful and compelling. You are creating the life you have always wanted. You express heaven in your thoughts, words, and deeds. Mark, You are committed to using the Three Principles of Exquisite Communication. Conscious Purpose,
Compassionate Understanding, and Passionate Elegance. If it is worth communicating at all, it is worth total focus on your outcome. Second, you enter their model of the world with Compassionate Understanding. You understand that until you know the other person’s map you won’t know what communication is useful. The most powerful aspect of communication is questioning, listening, and learning exactly where to tap for optimal effect. You therefore take the other person's perspective and walk a mile in their moccasins when you interact with them, ALWAYS finding their positive intention. When the other person knows you hear and truly understand them, they partner with you for a win-win solution. You understand before being understood. Third, Once you are clear what your outcome is and how to achieve it, you communicate it with Passionate Elegance. You associate fully into the emotions that compel you to action so the people you are communicating with experience it NOW. If it is worth communicating, it is worth doing with 110% congruence and vitality. Spirit flows through you effortlessly and with certainty and intuition, using only those words necessary to achieve the desired result. You notice the effects of your communication and only speak when it will be heard. Respect the pause. You LIVE WITH PASSION, and it's contagious. Mark, You are committed to Disciplined Success. You happily engage in every activity you need to in order to accomplish your goals because that's who you are. If it needs to be done, you simple schedule it and do it. By disciplining yourself to work each moment with 100% commitment, you sharpen who you are into an laser: precise, true, unstoppable. Like the tree growing out of the side of a cliff, you pronounce that life is champion in this contest. Life will not be stopped. You are continually asking yourself: "what is the best use of my time right now?" and getting started on the answer. By consistently organizing and executing your plans, you create results that positively and dramatically enhance your enjoyment of life. You plan your work, and work your plan. Mark, You are committed to Constant and Never Ending Improvement. You know that there is no such thing as failure, only results and feedback. There are no such things as problems, only opportunities in the form of challenges. You welcome each painful experience as a special message from God designed to make you pay attention to the consequences of a particular set of actions. The question is always: "what can I learn form this, and how can I apply it?" You appreciate what you accomplish, and the skills you demonstrate, while at the same time, rehearsing and implementing new and better thoughts, emotions, actions, and virtues. You seek and cherish others feedback as invaluable teaching for your perfection quest. Your current life is an excellent…Beginning. So rejoice the fact that you are alive today. Open to Love, Experience Joy, and Express the Creativity of who you are. Each moment of Consciousness is a precious gift. Again I ask: Mark, how will you use this gift? Live your life by choice, not chance. Life By Design.
