Oh mighty are thee with pillars robust roots deep forever vision a must ~ Cast no shadow on sundrenched dreams travelling light as happiness beams ~ For what once was worries no more visceral thoughts open every door ~ No hurricane winds can fight your fire of inner love and destiny's desire
I had a wonderful conversation recently about it – it made me feel so happy and alive.
There are many different individual interpretations of “making your dream life come true” and it’s not always about “dripping in gold” and driving a Rolls-Royce.
“Living the dream life“, is more often about…
Spending precious time with loved ones;
Having good health;
Being around nature;
Feeling relaxed, safe and happy in your environment;
Having a comfortable home;
Having easy access to running water, food on the table and a cosy bed to sleep in;
Reading a great book and/or watching your favourite movie;
Glaring at a mesmerising sunset or being captivated by the beautiful morning sunrise;
Taking the super excited family dog for a walk;
Strolling along the beachfront, breathing in that salty sea air;
Sharing warm hugs and cute cuddles with a loved one;
Enjoying a nice cup of tea or fresh pot of coffee;
Jumping in the puddles and dancing in the rain;
Laughing out loud and having fun;
Writing a poem, drawing beautiful art or storytelling;
I could go on with this special list but I know you get what I mean.
Maybe, if you just think about it, you’re “living the dream” already – or can at least tap into parts of it throughout your day – doesn’t that make your heart smile?
Find the “dream” where you are – where you stand right now, in this moment – isn’t it such a beautiful thing?
Your true presence is EVERYTHING and all you’ll ever need.
Think of your creative blog or online website like “Digital Land”.
What do I mean by “Digital Land”?
Take this Clarabelle Blog as an example, I see this as virtual land that I own and I use my creative passion to grow and build on this land everyday.
Every post I write and share, is like cutting the grass on real land. Every person who reads my blog, is like a visitor to my home – come in for a cup of tea!
As the blog expands and develops, the fruits of my creative labour, flower and blossom, connecting with a wider aligned audience.
This creates a beautiful ripple effect of abundance for the writer and reader, and in turn we both receive “Digital Gold”.
This “Digital Gold” is the positive effect from inspired action.
So think of it like this. You may not have the gold bullion right now to buy your own land or property – and that’s okay. What you can do though, is use your creative talents to achieve this in the online world first.
A blog or other online presence is a great way to start this process. Fill this precious “white space” with your creative gifts and nurture these seeds everyday.
If you take care of this extra special land, in time, you will have a lushess garden of colourful flowers and a pretty home to reside your creative heart, mind and soul.
Once you create this in the online world, it naturally leads to you having whatever you choose, in the physical world.
You hold all the power within you.
Let your creativity, feel its way into existence.
Remember, you don’t have to see the whole staircase, you just have to take the first step.
If you really want to change your current status, you have to channel all your energies into making that happen.
You have to go ALL IN , in order to get ALL OUT, of any unwanted situation.
It seriously is up to you and you’ve got to have real clarity on what you’re going to do everyday, in order to make that positive change.
Do the work and stay totally focussed on the goal in hand. It may also help to have an emotional trigger that will keep you on track.
Work, work, work on your plan, as much as you can, and in time, your efforts WILL pay off.
If it means, getting up at 4am every morning to fit the work in, then do it.
Your energy is so mighty and powerful, it can help you achieve so much more than you think.
Are you ready? If you are, you will feel a different person from within. You will switch into ‘gladiator’ mode and nothing will stop you until you get there.
Deliver everyday on becoming the best version of yourself.
Deliver by honouring your core values and serving your inner purpose.
Trust yourself to deliver on the things that matter to you and forge forward in the pursuit of your dreams.
Success is an accumulation of ‘doings’ aligned with your goals, that in time, manifests into your desired outcome.
Take charge of your thinking and channel your energies into a focussed and habitual manner that serves you well.
You won’t achieve what you want by delivering on this once or twice a week. Your success will be determined by the work you put in everyday and that is an absolute fact.
If you want to get real results, act accordingly and know the fruits of your labour will appear in good time.
To get the best out of a joyful life and all its magical wonders, one must savour each beautiful moment.
Never rush the process of life and the abundance it offers you. Take time to relax in its self-healing powers and float in its waters of love.
Life is not a sprint to the finish line, it is a treasured, slow walk along the white sandy beach, soaking up the wonderful energies of the warm sunshine.
The quote above may seem a little bit morbid at this time of year and I definitely don’t want to bring any darkness into your life today.
I want you to think about how this quote speaks to you. In my own mind, it creates a sense of appreciation and gratitude for the now and the magic of life itself. It pushes me to see ‘LIFE IN LIFE’ and to cherish that each and everyday.
Truly ‘live’ your life and know what that means for you.
As 2023 approaches believe in life, believe in your magnetic energy and believe in your self-power.
It’s easy to say these words, so easy but to truly live these words, well that indeed is another story.
If you’re currently not living your best life, think about what living your best life would look like for you.
Remember, the power is in you and if you really want it enough, then make a plan and do the work everyday that needs done to enable you to get there.
So, know where “there” is and hold that purposeful vision so strong, because when you hit some tough spots along the way, you’ll have full reason to keep charging forward.
So, wonderful you, what are you waiting for, get to work now and by this time next year, you’ll be so much closer to your desired results, or, better still, you’ll be there already.
I see you there, living the life of your dreams and I know you see it too.
Remember there is always the deepest love around you and you need never feel alone. Keep your spirits high and use any alone time to reflect on learning from the past and creating an amazing future for yourself.
Alone time can be so valuable to think about what you really want for your life going forward.
Imagine what’s beyond your dreams, I mean once you have achieved them – visualise that right now.
Think yourself into that zone of dream achievement – isn’t it such a wonderful happy place?
I love this quote by Walt Disney, “If you can dream it, you can do it.” – it says it all to me really.
It’s great to dream, but even better to live out your dreams and it’s all up to you.
I have dreams, lots of wonderful dreams and I believe that they will come true for me one day. I don’t sit around waiting on them to happen – that will never work. I truly go to work on my dreams everyday.
So I ask you today, to think about the dreams you want to make happen and I encourage you to take tiny steps each day into achieving them.
Wishing you a sensational day, dreaming, doing and more importantly, LIVING.
Be a loyal and trustworthy person and you will have the best friends for life.
Be open and honest with your feelings, it will help people to see the true side of you.
Be helpful and caring towards others and seek first to understand before being understood.
Be a positive and upbeat kind of person – no one wants to be around a drainer – sorry, they just don’t!
Be kind and friendly as much as you can because these qualities are always remembered in you by others.
Really focus on developing yourself as much as possible and read books on other people who have already succeeded in life.
Never judge another – you have not walked in that person’s shoes and you don’t know the difficult experiences other people have had to deal with. No one lives a perfect life, believe that!
Take time to plan what you want out of life in the next 2, 5 and 10 years from now and then go to work EVERYDAY on your plan.
Look after your health and wellbeing and that includes your mental, physical and spiritual.
Keep your finances in check and do your best to never lose money but instead work out how to grow your money and how to make it work for you.

Rightly or wrongly, I’ve always battled with living the ordinary kinda life – I just didn’t and still don’t see that for myself.
So, 49 years young, how’s it all looking now?
Well, honestly, probably 75% of it still feels like “ordinary” to me but I now have an absolute CLEAR VISION and SUPER STRONG FOCUS on how to change that to EXTRAORDINARY!
“Bit by bit”, has always been a key phrase for me and it really does work, if you stay consistent and committed to your goal in action.
So what will make the difference now, as opposed to 5, 10 or 20 years ago?
Well, this time, I am building on absolute SOLID ground and my core values are so deep rooted into the purpose behind my vision that even a magnitude 10 earthquake could not shake me off this meaningful path.
You see, I never had that before. I always had the belief and the self-confidence but spinning too many plates, led to too many distractions and therefore building on shaky ground – that was never going to last longterm.
I also just ‘feel it in my bones’ this time around. Everything seems to be pointing in the right direction and I feel like I am dancing towards the finish line, rather than running scared!
It can be exhausting changing your life for the better. So much energy is consumed at the start and it feels like nothing much is happening. It’s usually when you feel like giving up that a little glimmer of hope begins to sparkle from the distance.
Please don’t get me wrong, I’ve had a blast, living most of my ordinary life and it can feel quite perfect at certain times. We all have different definitions of ordinary – it’s really just down to personal preference and can be simple or somewhat complex.
Ultimately, if you’re happy, well in my eyes, you’ve already hit the jackpot and I genuinely salute you.
Does that then mean I’m not happy, chasing the extraordinary? For me, I am happy and I am MOST HAPPIEST pursuing my aspirational future whilst helping others along the way.
I guess, we’re all in this together, so let’s enjoy the process and give back as much as we can.

I know you need help – we all do at certain times in our lives. Below are five simple steps to help you move forward in life:-
What you firstly want to do, is specifically work out, what kind of help you need. You might ask the question – “What end result do I want”?
Next, we have to get real here – you need to be brutally honest about what’s happening for you now. A good question would be, “What’s my current reality?”
We now need to move your thinking from the current challenge to thinking about, what it will feel like to you, once you have achieved your goal or overcome your current challenge – really get yourself excited about this! To raise your thinking, ask yourself, “What will it feel like, look like or be like for me, once I have achieved this goal?”
Then you need to think about, what resources are out there, in order for you to tap into, to get the right help. Ask yourself, “What options are available to me?”
Next, you need to take some self-action. A good question here, might be – “Given all the options available to me, what’s the best way forward?” and “What plan will I put in place in order to make this happen? or better still “What’s my first step?”
Now, it really is, over to you, to get to work and progress on. If you put in 100% effort and remain committed to the change – you’ll definitely get there.
Keep measuring, reviewing and fine-tuning along the way – it will definitely keep you on track.
It’s Your Life – GO GET IT!

I can honestly say, I haven’t had the Monday Morning Blues for a good few years now and I never want to have them in the future either.
I remember, in my much younger days, getting these feelings, which often started on the Sunday evening!
I know, most of you can relate to those feelings of ‘dread’ going into a job that, for your own reasons, didn’t feel right.
I made a promise to myself a few years back that if I ever got so low again going into a job, I would sort that stuff out super fast.
Thankfully, I know what I want from a job and how I can utilise my skills and experience to contribute effectively. I also know how I want to be led and empowered to bring my best game to the table on a daily basis.
You have the true capacity and pure potential to achieve everything you want from your work and you are in control of whether you make it or break it.
I believe you deserve to experience the best of opportunities out there, so make sure you bring your ‘A’ game every single time.
There is this great quote by Rumi, “what you seek, is seeking you”, and for me, this quote is a wonderful reminder to never doubt your capabilities and be mindful of the many doors that are open for you – just walk right in.
When you really start to get excited about the positive changes you want to make in your life, that type of feeling becomes a true magnet for what you want to manifest.
This type of future thinking – excited energy, really does bring about the right vibe for wonderful transformations to take place.
So don’t focus too much on the problem, keep your mind on the solution and desired outcomes.
I feel super excited for you because I know your greatest potential will be your mirror very soon.
It’s time to strengthen your soul with the deepest power of visualisation and self-belief.
In the purest sunlight, the heart shines on like a beacon of love, dancing in the deepest cave of hope.
It is in this magnetic power a new mind is born and faraway horizons seem so close you can touch them.
Maybe all of the things in life, that don’t seem to make sense, were never to be thought about in that way.
What if, you were supposed to stay so present in each moment that thoughts of fear and doubt never ever manifested.
True thought can steer your mind in different directions – and the body, if in conflict or alignment with that thinking, will honour its preferred state of being.
Is your mind leading the way or is it your body? I think neither! I believe the magical field that surrounds your being always empowers the best out of you. It’s time to let this heavenly power communicate with your senses and create miracles through you.
You have everything you need, right here, right now to go far beyond what you think you are capable of achieving.
The sun’s energy cannot exist without you, that’s how important you are to this world.
I tried so hard,
to win your heart,
I gave it my all,
right from the start.
I guess you didn't,
want that too,
I felt your resistance,
through and through.
So I moved on,
then you came back,
for another go,
to get on the right track.
My soul felt heavy,
for this buried hurt,
cannot be separated,
from cold dirt.
I set you free,
to live and learn,
deep true love,
you have to earn.
It takes respect,
trust and forgiving,
loyalty and smiles,
the same joint vision.
Goodbye my precious,
may you find your one,
to my dreams on the horizon
every mile I run.

What is the Spirit of Desire? What does it mean to you?
To me, the Spirit of Desire is the intangible breath of your heartbeat seeking an escape route through the depths of your soul.
What does that really mean?
It means, that the one thing you want, that thing that excites you every time you think about it, every time you envision the positive outcome in your mind……well, it’s that thing pulling you forward into achieving its manifestation for you.
The Spirit of Desire beats every moment of your life, it’s in every step that you take and in every thought you think. What’s your specific thing? What’s your Spirit of Desire? I know you know it!!
Live it, breathe it, feel it, see it, believe it, do it, go get it!!
