So It’s Three Weeks Into The New year: How To Make Yours Count For You! – Vol. 345, January 21, 2016
Like many of you, I have received a ton of email messages regarding the New Year and all the great deals that one can take advantage of because IT IS THE NEW YEAR. I have to say that I have taken advantage of a few of those deals that I feel will bring Dawning Visions Hypnosis, Inc. to its next level of growth and beyond. For that very reason, I am very grateful for the great deals that came in at year’s end.
However I have a more meaningful message for you: Figure out that one thing that you really, really want to accomplish for the year. I don’t mean something that you feel you “should” do or “ought” to do. I mean something that you really have wanted to do because your soul has let you know that this one thing is more important to you then anything else you could be doing with your time and money (if applicable).
I will give you a bit of an inside view of my own thinking process so that you can better understand what I mean. First of all for the past 13 years I have been working at learning and sharing all that I have learned about how the body, mind and spirit work together in the healing process. Over those 13 years I have met some super inspirational people. You can meet them on the testimonial pages of this website. They truly are my heroes, for being willing to confront what most scares them – looking at their past behaviors, and then doing the real work to transform their lives for the better.
However, there has been one problem for all these many years and that was that I haven’t been able to reach anywhere near the amount of people that I would have liked to have reached given the results that even my most challenging cases have realized.
On top of that fact, is the sad truth that our youth are very unhappy – that is if you look at the numbers of kids killing themselves – Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death for ages 10 – 24 according to the CDC records in 2013. Eating disorders are the FIRST cause of death for young women 15 – 24 years of age. And, too many of your youth are overdosing on drugs and getting alcohol poisoning by binge drinking.
We as a society have to take a closer look at what it is that we are telling our kids about who they are and what it is like to have “normal” feelings – feelings that need to be validated and worked with, not medicated with drugs be they licit or illicit.
My next huge goal is to train those who have an interest in healing our drug addicted, sex addicted and eating disordered youth. That is, those who have a decent understanding of the underlying psychological and medical conditions that go along with these populations. Because this is the thing: if we don’t use our skills and knowledge to heal our youth while they are young enough to easily heal, then it is on us, the adults, isn’t it?
I want to take this a step further and create a non-profit that will be monetized by donating 10% of income of Dawning Visions Hypnosis, Inc. The non-profit is going to be in the business of helping our kids get the required help they need from the non-profit providers who work with them. Because it is my contention that though it is great that many are interested in helping those in Africa (myself included having done a bit of that in the recent past), we need to care for our own kids right here in America – they are having a hell of a time of it.
So, what are your dreams? What is it that you want to take a stand for, create or be a part of for this next year. Again, it needs to be something that you are truly “moved” to do because you deeply care about whatever that one thing is. Make a commitment to yourself to take the time and energy and focus on that one thing and watch your world become all the richer for doing so.
