I am seeing signs everywhere

majamarinic01

Have you heard about the quote: “When the student is ready, teacher will appear”? I feel like I am the one. By one I mean that I am going through a lot lately, asking myself and the universe questions like crazy, and according to that, I am getting answers to the same.

When I said that I am going through a lot, I am just at the point that I cannot handle anymore something, and that I need immediate change.

One day I was at work, feeling so frustrated and tired, pissed of, asking God when is going to be my time, and I saw the letter being at the place where it is not supposed to be saying: “You are not alone in your troubles!” I knew this is there placed to make me feel better and it did, it really did.

“Sometimes we get caught up in trying to glorify God by praising what He can do and we lose sight of the practical point of what He actually does do.”
― Dallas Willard

I don”t know are this signs for real, are we just imagining them to be true, being our fantasies, or there are some real spirit guides sending us messages through the everyday life. What do you think?

I think if you wanna receive something you need to ask for that. You need to openly, sincerely and wholeheartedly ask for something that you really want, and you shall receive. I guarantee you.

I made a video on this topic as well. You will see how passionate I am about signs, because I literally see them everywhere. Just couple of days ago, while on a way to work, I kept repeating to myself how our only job in life is to make ourselves happy, nothing more. I said that to myself maybe 10 times, and saw all of the sudden written with huge words on a house: “You got this!” I started to laugh, I knew it is true. The funny fact is that I am passing by to that place almost every day, and only that day I saw it. It is amazing what is happening to ourselves when we are truly in alignment with ourselves.

Another Sign Story

I had a bad day at work. Read: it is not the work that is bad, I made the work bad with my attitude. So I was standing there also, wondering when is going to be that day when I am going to become full time entrepreneur, again feeling so tired and frustrated. And when I was at that turbulent state :D. I saw on a bus passing buy on a big billboard, it said: “The game of your life takes courage” I was like omg, is this for real. And a couple of minutes later, I saw again, on a different bus: “Build your future step by step” I couldn”t believe my eyes.

“I had to wonder if the Lord above had flashed a heavenly spotlight over my head and whispered, “Preach this sermon just for her. She’s not going to get the message otherwise.”
― Janice Thompson, Fools Rush In

The thing is that these buses were in town every day, I just wasn”t ready for them. But the day when I asked some big questions, someone or something spun my head towards these words. It is incredible. I took these as a signs. Today, I am seeing this same exact signs all the time. It”s like, there are reminding me what really matters, and that is, working on me and my future, taking massive action, and being courageous.

Maybe a year before, I had one more bad day. I was so confused, not knowing what to do, and I asked desperately my grandma who did passed away for a sign, and I heard the words: “Don”t you worry child, God has a plan for you!” of the song that I was just listening. I am sure, she wanted me to hear these words, and of course she made me feel better.

How you can see more signs?

You need to be open to it. Affirm yourself every day: “I am opening myself up to see the signs!” It helps! It really helps. Also, you need to ask for the signs. Ask for them! And they will show. But ask for the specific signs. Signs like, should I go to London or New York to live? That kind of signs. Should I continue to be in relationship with this guy, or should I break up with him? I hope you get the point.

“I look for a sign. Where to go next. you never know when you’ll get one. Even the most faithless among us are waiting to be proven wrong.”
― Jillian Lauren, Pretty

Here are the ways to know when the Universe is trying to tell you something: repeating numbers, songs, printed words, images or visuals, repeating events, finding objects, smells, feelings, repeating obstacles, triggered memories.

What are the ways that you received signs from the Universe, and what do you think that is telling you? Tell us bellow in a comments.

Here is little help for you how you should ask and how specific you need to be. I found this on a site called Alcantara, and here is their full article.

Here are some pointers when asking for a sign:

  1. Give a certain time frame

Let”s say that to some exact time you need to make a decision and you want universe to guide you prior to that time, just ask for it.

      2. Ask to notice it beyond the shadow of a doubt

You can ask something like. “I want you to be very clear about the sign which you are going to send me, and very specific about my situation, so I know it is meant for me.”

      3. Ask to notice it a specific number of times

“Don”t stop showing me until I got it fully!”

      4. Be open

Open yourself up to see them at all times, every time.

 

Good luck with this!

How To Be More Self Aware

majamarinic01

Why would you want to know who you are? Why would you want to know your talents, strengths and weaknesses? Why is important? Why would you care? Who should care?You should be your own best self! You should know who you are, so you can improve your weaknesses, work more on your talents, try to make the most out of your strengths.

Self-Awareness can make you feel more happy, because you are more aware of your actions, feelings and emotions. Your relationships can improve, you can better perform at work…

If you wanna develop self awareness you need to ask yourself some deep questions? Just ask! But yourself! This is the only way how you can get to know yourself better. Asking yourself questions at all times, on a daily basis.

“When I discover who I am, I’ll be free.”
― Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man

You can”t get away from yourself by moving from one place to another, is another quote by Ernest Hemingway that I love so much. It teaches us that all is within you. All your flaws and victories. People travel massively. They are being bored in their home country, and that is all right. But if you are not happy in your country, how can you be more happy in another? You can”t get away from yourself by moving from one place to another. You better know who you are!

You need to find yourself again. You need to forgive yourself and praise those victories. You need to know yourself better.

Yoga and meditation is one of the tools that can improve your self-awareness. I like it so much, especially meditation, and yoga of course (I don”t know which is more important to me), because it teaches me to be more self-aware of my thoughts, feelings, emotions, habits, actions, etc. Yoga is one of the self-aware tools to wake up your body, to be more awake in general.

Self awareness doesn”t stop you from making mistakes, it allows you to learn from them. You are not going to beat yourself up by making mistakes, rather, you will learn from them, accept them, and move on, try different approach.

20190421_122534

When it comes to making mistakes, you are aware that this is a journey. The ones who are successful now, they made most mistakes, and you should know about that, be aware of it.

“It does not matter how long you are spending on the earth, how much money you have gathered or how much attention you have received. It is the amount of positive vibration you have radiated in life that matters,”
― Amit Ray

Don”t compromise yourself. You”re all what you”ve got said Janis Joplin. Know who you are and you are going to be unstoppable. Do you know the saying: “Know Thyself”? It is knowing your core being. It is knowing why you are doing certain actions. etc.

You cannot move from one point to another (better one) if you are not aware of the situation that you are in now. You need to accept the situation you are in now. You need to look closely at the situation, what led you to here, how you ended up here, and how you are going to move on to next, again (better one).

Journaling is one of the best methods to get to know yourself better. What did they say, what it meant for you, how you felt about that, how did you responded to this. It is really great method to see what is going on underneath the surface for you.

Mindful activities. When you wash your hands. Shower. Feel that water on your body. Rubbing soap in hour hands. It is training you to be more mindful in other situations.

“I know that I am intelligent, because I know that I know nothing.”
― Socrates

Record yourself. 😀 How bad do you wanna to get to know yourself better? You can record just your voice, or record yourself whole, talking to camera. It is a great exercise to see how the world perceives you. Tonality of your voice and your face expressions are everything. You are going to better perform selling yourself, at a job interviews, you will have better communication in general, your relationships will improve.

Working on your perception you can deliver your message better. People will start taking you seriously. But with a poor posture and low tone of voice will not take you anywhere. Start acting like the most confident person, like the one who has all in his or her hands. That is working on yourself. Working on being more self aware.

“Wisdom tends to grow in proportion to one’s awareness of one’s ignorance.”– Anthony de Mello

I am going to bring you just one quote from this article that resonated with me the most. And it goes like this:

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. – Carl Jung

I really hope I inspired you and opened your eyes to the one more world inside you?! I hope I helped you discover more of who you truly are?!

How To Develop Abundance Mindset

majamarinic01

What is mindset anyways? It is a set of beliefs that you hold at all times. Most people are not aware of it, and very few people know what they hold, these people are lucky. It is a process.

Unfortunately, most of the people developed scarcity mindset, meaning they don”t see opportunities. Now, how you can develop abundant mindset is FREE. Believe me! It is something located in within you. It is your mind, way of thinking, education. Educate yourself! Why you think there is not enough for everybody on this planet?

Lot”s of people know about the Law of Attraction, but do you really practice it? It is not enough to watch a couple of times Secret and expect miracles in your life. You need to work for it! Also, if you are envy or jealous on other people, that can take you further away from your dreams. If you wanna achieve something in your life, you should be glad for everybody being and looking happy, having the things that you want, going on vacations and so on.

fabric-2405104_640

Vibrate abundance and abundance will come to you. If you are a salesman, and you are selling low pricing products, guess how much you will get? Raise your value or price of the product, and watch how your wealth grows. But the trick it, you need to believe you can give a value, your product is worth the purchasing, and people can benefit from it.

There are plenty of tools how you can develop abundance mindset. One of the things that I like to do, is to listen guided meditations. There are so wonderful ones that I like so much, I can literally see myself in possession of all my dreams. The key is to see yourself doing it, having it, and feeling it with all your being.

Abundance is everywhere. We have abundance of food, air, water, sun, electricity, shelter, people, opportunities, internet, jobs, businesses, and so on. Why some people don”t see that abundance, these opportunities? Because their focus is on the lack, their focus is on what it is. They talk about it, they think about it, and so they create it in their realities even more. This is the secret of how rich people get richer and poor people get poorer. Rich people see opportunities, and poor people talk about the lack all the times.

Also, if you wanna create abundance in your life, you should be open to it, you should think abundance, feel abundance, see abundance, and guess what? You are going to live abundance instantly.

Develop a Growth Mindset. There is amazing book that I highly recommend called Mindset – The New Psychology Of Success by Carol Dweck. Please, check this book HERE. I highly recommend this site where you can purchase this book, they ship worldwide for FREE and they have over 20 million books. Also, they are sending you book mark as well that brings opportunity to get a 100 UK Pounds voucher.

Simply, develop Growth mindset. Study people who achieved success. Know that all can be improved, that is abundance mindset. Nothing is fixed or a set in stone. Know that everything, you, entire universe, people around you, can be improved. You just need to improve first, you need to open yourself and see opportunities.

One more exercise that I highly recommend is affirmations. Create you own affirmations and repeat them every day all over again. Create affirmations that will shift your perspective. You can say like: “There are trillions of dollars circulating on this planet and I deserve a portion of this.”

I hope your mindset serves you, it brings you good. How to know that the mindset we have is good or bad? Simply, if something doesn”t work in your life, guess what? You developed a wrong mindset.

This is very effective exercise. Just put on a piece of paper all your thoughts about life. All your thoughts about money, relationship, health, wealth, physical body, etc… Your thoughts that you are repeating all over again, are in direct proportion of the life that you live right now. Simply, you are living your beliefs about life, about yourself. Change your beliefs, change your life. You need to change that as soon as possible, if you wanna change something. You need to change your thoughts.

You believe in something that keeps you down. You believe in the things that doesn”t serve you. You need to wake up, and study, study people who achieved something that you want. World is buzzing with a people who are eager to help, but you need to ask them. You need to ask them how they did it, the thing that you wanna achieve.

I read beautiful article about the scarcity and abundance mindset that someone else wrote, and I love it! You can read it HERE and educate yourself even more about the two mindsets. All in life is psychology!

If you wanna be mentored about the two mindsets, I highly recommend myself 😀 You can book me HERE. 😀 To ask for help and find someone who is going to point you where you lack awareness is a sign of strength. Don”t be too cautious in life. You are sabotaging yourself by this. This world is so wonderful, full of abundance, waiting just for you and me. You need to just open yourself. Look for it. You know you deserve it.

I am going to wrap up now, and tell you that you can. Simply, if you don”t see abundance now in your life, that doesn”t necessarily mean that there is no abundance, and you cannot have it. You need to first believe in abundance, see it in every day life situations, only then you can receive it.

I really, really hope I helped you with this article. I put all my heart and soul into it, and hope that I am going to inspire you and motivate you too see abundance and good in everything. Look around yourself, and notice how you live that abundance already.

Please, like this article if you like it, share it with your friends and subscribe for more future amazing contents.

I wish you every success.

Two Questions You Need To Ask Yourself Daily

majamarinic01
It is that easy

Now, you may be wondering, what are these two questions, and why should I ask myself anything? Well, if you don”t ask yourself anything, you might be on a wrong track.

I believe until now, you asked yourself and you continue to ask: “What do I wanna be when I grow up?” But that is it, sadly! Does anyone asked you: “How do you feel now?” I believe there are very rare persons and situations when somebody asked you about how do you feel. Why is that?

Well, that is in the generation of our parents, a generation that didn”t know any better, and that is completely fine. No one is perfect, right? Fortunately, people all over the world are waking up. People want to do the difference in society, and that is a beautiful thing to do.

 

The first question is:

How do I really feel right now?

How do you feel now about yourself, your current situation, and things around you, will really determent what are you going to manifest in the future. Do you feel excitement, joy, happiness, peace, calm, love, trust, hope, or are you feeling sadness, bitterness, overwhelm, tired, fatigue, unmotivated, etc? Which one of those?

Do you see the difference? Notice how do you feel daily, all throughout the day, and if it doesn”t bring you joy, switch it, just focus on the positive, find just one simple and small positive thing, and from there build momentum. That will lead you to one more positive aspect, to one more, to one more, to one more, etc. Do you see the difference? Notice how do you really feel right now, and if that doesn”t serve you, switch to the positive one. Feelings are triggered by emotions. I am sure you can find at least one positive aspect in negative. Dig deeper, and you will find it.

Don”t worry if you are going through tough times right now. There is always positive as well. Do you know about jing-jang sign? Where there is a dark, there is a light. Where there is a cold, there is a warm. Where there is a rain, there is a sunshine. Real matter is, where is your focus?

 

Jing – Jang

The second question is:

What would I like to change about myself?

You see, we walk through life unhappy, unsatisfied, and doing nothing about it. Why is that? Because we are fear-full. We fear everything in this world.

For example, I am very indecisive. And that annoys me sometimes. Why I just cannot decide about something and go for it? Maybe because of insecurities that I had back in the days, I don”t know. But lately, I am asking myself questions, and trying to quickly decide by that first answer that pops into my mind, and taking immediate action, trying to get thing done.

Maybe you would like to change your posture, to have a straight back? Just do something every day towards that goal, just 5 minutes. You will feel proud of yourself, and from that point your confidence will skyrocket, what we all want.

 

Choose to feel good about yourself.

It is really that simple. Two questions. How do I really feel with this friend? How do I really feel in this house? How do I really feel in this job? How do I really feel reading this? How do I really feel writing this? Do you see? How do I really feel talking about politics, and worlds biggest problems? Does that serves me?

Every day do some little simple steps to improve your looks, knowledge, temper, character, business, romantic relationships, etc. The thing that you would like to change about yourself.

I would like to ask you now. Are you asking yourself any questions daily? And if you do, what are the questions that you are asking yourself? You are never going to get wrong asking yourself such questions, and wondering about everything that surrounds you.

I read the book called Mindset, and found these two that I shared with you now. By the way, I even wrote a Blog Post about mindset that you can find here.

I hope this text helped you, and you are going to start asking yourself better questions. If you have any other idea, of what we should ask ourselves daily, please share with everybody in a comment section below.

The monk who sold his Ferrari by Robin Sharma

majamarinic01

This book is such a gem

 

This book is a huge gem (diamond). I am really fascinated. It”s about the secrets of life and how to keep that balance between personal and professional life. I will surely come to read this book again and again, to buy my own copy, and make sure to underscore the parts that I resonated with, so I can reread it again and remind myself of these secrets and truths again and again when needed. It is really inspiring.

Do you believe success is your destiny? Are you hunger for more: more prestige, more glory and more money? You will never wish you spent more time at the office attaining success and money. You will wish on your deathbed to spent more time with your family and friends in a joyful moment together. I”ve also come to see that success on the outside means nothing unless you also have success within. There is a huge difference between well-being and being well-off.

“Every event has a purpose and every setback its lesson. I have realized that failure, whether of the personal, professional or even spiritual kind, is essential to personal expansion. It brings inner growth and a whole host of psychic rewards. Never regret your past. Rather, embrace it as the teacher that it is. I have learned that self-mastery and the consistent care of one”s mind, body and soul are essential to finding one”s highest self and living the life of one”s dreams. How can you care for others if you cannot even care for yourself? How can you do good if you don’t even feel good? I can’t love you if I cannot love myself.

 

Appreciate yourself

 

Take the first step to shifting your paradigm with these awesome life lessons from The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari. 

 

1. Cultivate Your Mind

The Quality Of Your Life Is Determined By The Quality Of Your Thoughts

2. The Purpose Of Life Is A Life Of Purpose

The Power Of Self-Examination

3. Do The Things You Fear The Most

Self-Mastery Is The DNA Of Life Mastery

4. Live With Discipline

Do The Vow Of Silence

5. Respect Your Time

Have A “Deathbed” Mentality

6. Practice Daily Acts Of Kindness

By Elevating The Lives Of Others, Your Life Reaches Its Highest Dimensions

7. Never Sacrifice Happiness For Achievement

Live In The Now With Your Children’s Childhood

 

The time is now

 

Investing in yourself is the best investment you will ever make. It will not only improve your life, it will improve the lives of all those around you. It is only when you have mastered the art of loving yourself that you can truly love others. It”s only when you have opened your own heart that you can touch the hearts of others. When you feel centered and alive, you are in a much better position to be a better person.

 

A Most Extraordinary Garden

 

Most people live – whether physically, intellectually or morally – in a very restricted circle of their potential being. We all have reservoirs of life to draw upon of which we do not dream.

                                                                                            William James

 

In a fable, the garden is a symbol for the mind. If you care for your mind, if you nurture it and if you cultivate it just like a fertile, rich garden, it will blossom far beyond your expectations. But if you let the weeds take root, lasting peace of mind and deep inner harmony will always elude you. Yet look at the toxic waste that most people put into the fertile garden of their minds every single day: the worries and anxieties, the fretting about the past, the brooding over the future and those self-created fears that wreak havoc within your inner world.

To live life to the fullest, you must stand guard at the gate of your garden and let only the very best information enter. You truly cannot afford the luxury of a negative thought – not even one. The most joyful, dynamic and contented people of this world are no different from you or me in terms of their makeup. We are all flesh and bones. We all come from the same universal source. However, the ones who do more than just exist, the ones who fan the flames of their human potential and truly savor the magical dance of life do different things than those whose lives are ordinary. Foremost among the things that they do is adopt a positive paradigm about their world and all that in it.

There is no such thing as objective reality or “the real world”. There are no absolutes. The face of your greatest enemy might be the face of my finest friend. An event that appears to be a tragedy to one might reveal the seeds of unlimited opportunity to another. What really separates people who are habitually upbeat and optimistic from those who are consistently miserable is how the circumstances of life are interpreted and processed.

 

All is well in your world

 

All success in life, whether material or spiritual, starts with that twelve – pound mass sitting between your shoulders. Or more specifically, with the thoughts that you put into your mind every second of every minute of every day. Your outer world reflects the state of your inner world. By controlling the thoughts that you think and the way you respond to the events of your life, you begin to control your destiny.

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self – mastery. From struggle comes strength. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher. To savor the good one you must know the bad!

I suggest that you stop judging events as either positive or negative. Rather, simply experience them, celebrate them and learn from them. Every event offers you lessons. These little lessons fuel your inner and outer growth. Without them, you would be stuck on a plateau. Just think about it in your own life. Most people have grown the most from their most challenging experiences. And if you meet with an outcome you did nor expect and feel a little disappointed, remember that the laws of nature always ensure that when one door closes another opens.

 

Door to paradise

 

I hope you will enjoy reading this content as much as I enjoyed reading this book. That is just a few or words of wisdom, there are much much more to learn. I promise you, you will never regret reading this book, if you are open for these teachings of course. When the student is ready, the teacher will appear!

Please, leave me a comment in a section below if you read this far, I would appreciate that. And please, feel free to like and share in you find it valuable.

 

I gave my best!
