Howdy Folks and Happy St. Patrick's Day!
A lot of us wonder, “What is my purpose?
Why am I here?”
The answer is really quite simple. In some way or another, our purpose is to bring more love into the world.
That doesn’t mean we have to quit our day job and wander the streets saying “I love you” or giving out hugs. (Although if that’s what you’re genuinely called to do, honor the calling!) Most often generating more love in our world begins with learning to love our Self.
Most of us have been told things like: you’re no good, you’re dumb, how could you be so stupid, you’re worthless, you’ll never amount to anything, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah. (Cancel, clear, and delete all of those thoughts! You are a DIVINE being!) Or we’ve had major guilt trips put on us and live under a shroud of guilt. Or we’ve made mistakes and have been told we should be ashamed of ourselves. None of which are very loving.
Often when we think about loving ourselves the ego kicks in and tells us we’re being selfish and we’re unlovable. That’s simply not true.
There isn’t a being among us that is unlovable. Even a rock can be loved! (Don’t believe me? Remember the huge Pet Rock craze that swept the world over and resurges again and again?) Surely human beings have more to love than a rock!
No matter what we’ve done, what we’ve thought, or what we’ve been told, we have actually been created to love ourselves. It’s part of our purpose, our mission on this planet.
When we love ourselves, we generate more love in the world and that’s fulfilling the purpose of all of humanity!
We really are meant to love ourselves. We’re MEANT to. It’s what God created us to do! It’s not selfish, conceited, or deceptive. It’s our divine design!
It’s also why when we don’t love ourselves things get so out of whack!
For everyone wondering what you’re real purpose in life is or why you are here, it is simply this:
LOVE YOURSELF.
No more. No less. In loving yourself, you generate more love on the planet. You physically create more love, more joy, more health, more healing… first in you and then in those around you. Even in the environment!
Scientists have actually done studies which show plants and trees respond to human emotion over 25 feet away from the person emitting the emotion. So if you need incentive, loving yourself is good for the environment!
Incidentally, loving ourselves is a choice. Some of us may struggle with it and feel like we do not know how. Here’s an easy way to start…

Do something good for the world today…
LOVE YOURSELF.
With Peace, Love, Happiness, Health, and Prosperity…

What Kind of an
"Experience" Do You Give Your Customers?
In the old days, the products and services people bought
were simply commodities. The buying decision was based on locality and price
and usually not much else.
More and more, today's consumers buy an
"experience."
Think about it. You don’t go to a nice restaurant just for
good food. You go for the ambiance, the service—sometimes even the prestige. You
go for the experience.
It's becoming that way with most products.
And yet, far too many business owners and managers see
themselves as simply providing a product or delivering a service. And they
wonder why they don’t stand out. They wonder why their customers leave for
their competitors.
Smart entrepreneurs look to create a positive and memorable
experience rather than just a transaction. They add value by creating an
enjoyable experience.
Think about where you do business and who you buy from. Why
do you do it? Chances are, you enjoy doing business
with the people and the businesses to which you give your money.
You might not think of every transaction as an experience.
You might go to a dry cleaner because they're fast and they're on the way to work.
But if you had a choice of dropping your dry cleaning to a fast, convenient and
Action Point
Brainstorm ways you can give your customers an "experience." How can it be made more entertaining? More fun? More educational? More inspiring or uplifting? If you do that, you'll have customers who easily—and with regularity—tell others about you.

5. Sir Froggie’s Pondering — from Sir Froggie
Today’s Pondering is dedicated to Misty.
LET LOVE BE YOUR GUIDE
Do you trust the voice of Love or fear to guide you? Do you see the world through a positive or negative lens? Can you trust yourself, your loved ones, and the world?
Let Love be your guide.
We’ve been conditioned to live in fear. The evening news tells us daily why we should be afraid. Governments create rules, organizations and even wars to “protect” us from that which scares us. Businesses and marketing corporations play on our fears telling us what we need to buy in order to be safe or to be a good person or even to be loved. Our own mind creates fear with thoughts of doubt, insecurity and what could happen.
We don’t have to buy into fear’s propaganda. There’s another choice. That choice is Love. And it’s a much more trustworthy, truthful, and genuine guide than fear ever could be. (After all fear is the acronym for false evidence appearing real!)
Love is real. Love knows the truth – the higher truth of every individual. Love knows what’s best for us. One of the greatest things we can do in life is to let Love be our guide.
When we have a choice to make, whether it’s as small as what to eat or as large as which job to take, one of the best decision-making tools we can use is to ask: Would this decision be loving my Self?
If we put something into our body that isn’t loving or nurturing to it, it will only weaken us, drain our energy, negatively affect our moods and lead to illness. If we fill our body with something loving, it fuels us, energizes us, lifts our spirit, maintains a positive mood and creates health. It helps us think better, feel better, and live better because we are loving ourselves.
Love is an important guide to any relationship whether it’s with God, others, or our Self. True Love is relaxed, comfortable, supportive. We sometimes get True Love confused by the ego’s fearful love which is draining and constrictive. Ego’s imitation of love makes us fearful of abandonment instead of happy and content the way True Love does. It’s important to notice what we’re really feeling!
Love invites us to take action when we see something amiss in the world. Instead of making us feel like helpless victims the way fear does, Love says “you can do something about this!” When we ask what, Love provides an answer. Sometimes it’s as simple as a hug. Other times it may be helping someone one on one or getting involved with an existing organization to solve the problem. Love shows the way and invites us to take the journey.
Love comes from a higher place, the place of Divine guidance and wisdom. Love knows. It knows what we need, what we desire, what’s good for us and what isn’t. Love fuels us. It lifts us. It helps us recognize the divinity within ourselves and others. Listen to Love.
And let Love be your guide.
