Change is Good

July 30, 2014July 31, 2014 ClaireLeave a comment

Welcome Change

I know a lot of people don’t like change but personally I welcome change. I thrive in new settings, new beginnings, meeting new people, learning new things, overcoming new challenges, working in new and changing environments, I love it all. So I encourage you today, to think about what you would like to change in your life today, what little or large change could you make to your daily habits, your environment, your job, your relationships, that will enhance your skills, knowledge, experience or just make you that little bit happier and/or more content with you and your life.

Change is good, it will sometimes take you out of your comfort zone and into your learning zone.

Change is good, it can be refreshing and revigorating meeting new people and/or being in a new environment

Change is GOOD…….Change is GOOD. 🙂

Please remember, even a small change could make all the difference to your day, try a new fruit or putting fresh flowers in a dull room, it’s amazing how that can uplift your spirits.

I look forward to hearing about the changes you are making – mini or massive I know they will make a positive difference to your life.

Lots of love to you today, as always,

Clarabelle

A Question for You

What you doing with the rest of your life?

Think & Grow Rich

I have just finished studying the famous book, Think & Grow Rich by Napolean Hill. Now, I have listened to this audio book before but I have never really studied and fully applied the learning. This time it’s different because I have been applying the knowledge gained and putting it into daily practice. Here is one of my favourite quotes from the book:

“No one is ready for a thing, until he believes he can acquire it. The state of mind must be belief, not mere hope or wish. Open-mindedness is essential for belief.”

Believe in yourself, believe in your abilities, believe you can do it…..YES YOU CAN!!

Love to you, Clarabelle

Clarabelle Poetry

You know I love my poetry and I am in a poetic mood this morning. Here are some morning reflections from me to you, put into one of my favourite creative writing styles…..rhyming poetry, this one might just get you thinking. Set yourself free, break the chains of old habits and make fulfilling choices from this day forward. You can do it. Love to you Clarabelle.

Break the Chains

A starry night,
A blissful morn.
Another routine,
There goes the car horn.

A rush, a rumble,
A dash to the door.
Caught up in the moment,
Head to the floor.

Then all of a sudden,
The alarm bells ring.
How did this happen?
What did I bring?

Is my life,
just passing me by?
Am I really happy?
I ponder and sigh.

To break the chains,
To let it all go.
Would test my bravery,
Against, “go with the flow”.

For I’m in control,
I make the choice.
Do this or that,
Share my voice.

The river runs fast,
The sun will rise again.
But remember your life
Is like ink in a pen.

Writing the pages,
of what is to be.
Until it runs out,
What’s left to see?

So decide who you are,
become your greatest self.
The world will not wait,
Get your book off the shelf.

Have clarity, choose wisely,
Let your heart lead the way.
Because times ticks on,
So make this your day.

The day you change,
The day you reach out.
The day you believe.
Your dreams, are worth a shout.

Slow the picture down,
Play it back in your mind.
The crossroads of your life,
Holds the answers, seek and find.

Be a like a butterfly,
Fluttering in the breeze,
Your courageous soul is open,
Change your life, if you please.

Dreams Can Come True

February 28, 2014 ClaireLeave a comment

Happy Tear

I held it in my hands yesterday and I shed a wee happy tear…….what did I hold? I held my CD, my EP, Hearts Apart which contains 4 of my original songs. I feel very proud and emotional at the same time….has it been easy, “No” but it was worth it!! That feeling I felt yesterday was one of the best feelings ever….the realisation that you can really make your dreams come true if you have a enough passion, faith, heart, self-belief, determination, focus and self-discipline to do so. Sometimes you have to make real sacrifices to get hold of your dreams and you have to rearrange your life a little bit or a lot in order to get there. I’ve kept my “eye on the ball” with this one and I’m not letting go now. Yes there will be more tough challenges ahead, I know this, but I am strong and I am getting stronger everyday.

The Roots

I focused on the roots of this dream, the roots being “me” and my mind. I took control of my own mind……I didn’t let it waiver and when it tried to, well I had a motivational process in place to deal with that. Things aren’t perfect for me right now and I’m not really sure they are for anybody in this world but I can honestly say that the very gradual transition from Professional Executive Coach to successful Singer-Songwriter has overall been a happy occasion for me.

So Grateful

“The grateful mind is constantly fixed upon the best, therefore it tends to become the best.” (Wallace D. Wattles, The Science of Getting Rich)

I think one thing that has really helped me stay grounded and joyous in the moment, is the daily gratitude I have for everything in my life. I am honestly so grateful for everything I have……thank YOU love and thank YOU life. I would also like to say a massive thank you to YOU for being here and joining me on this journey…..I want YOU to have everything you’ve ever dreamed of in life….I want you to be so happy too.

Wishing you a very beautiful day today….go in the direction of your dreams but focus on the roots and the best fruits will grow. Love Clarabelle.

Pure Love

Creative Mind

A couple of weeks ago I was in the Hospital waiting room for over an hour so I decided to put my creative mind to good use and write some poems. Below is one of the four poems I wrote for you that day, entitled “Pure Love”, I hope you love it and I hope you live it!! Love Clarabelle

Pure Love

Like flipping a switch,
free your mind.
Let down the barriers,
and peace you’ll find.
Wars are not won,
with a broken heart.
That battle is lost,
before you start.
Forgive in the moment,
open the door.
Vulnerability is a strength,
see yourself soar.
Capture in the now,
the real essence of you,
A feeling of pure love,
shining through.

Give thanks to this moment right now because having gratitude is such a beautiful thing. Have faith in the mystery of the unknown, believe with all your heart that what you truly desire it making its way to you right now.

“People who can sincerely be thankful for things which they own in imagination have real faith. They will get rich; they will cause the creation of whatever they want.” Wallace Wattles (1860-1911)

Vision Wall by Clarabelle

About 18 months ago I shared on here a post regarding a Vision Wall I created, this was strongly based on my belief, faith and imagination of what I wanted to create in my life. I am delighted to share with you, that most of this has come true for me and I look forward to sharing that with you in a future blog post. You can also check out the process that I went through on the VISION WALL page of this website.

What mood are you in today?

August 21, 2013August 21, 2015 Claire5 Comments

After the storm

Think Feel Do

I want you to think about this, how do you usually respond to the people and circumstances around you when you are in a low mood? Chances are if you’re anything like me, not very positively. Wouldn’t it be best then to wait until your mood changes to a much more positive mood before you respond to situations. Yes, I know you can’t wait forever because this is life and you will want to be getting on with things, but if you take ‘time’ out of the equation and focus more on changing your thinking about the situation then ‘time’ will not be the main issue……you just have to change your thinking. You see it’s all really about THINK, FEEL, DO – let me explain. Your thinking comes first, which then determines how you feel which is then followed by what you do, so if you don’t like what you’re doing or how you’re feeling change the way you think.

High Mood

I want to encourage you to really think about what you’re thinking before you respond to anything in your life. When you are in a high mood you will be thinking good thoughts and good feelings and behaviour will follow. When you are in a high mood you are much better equipped to tap into your true wisdom and you will find it much easier to come up with the solution to any problems you have.

Hopefully this post will give you some food for thought.

“When you’re in a high mood, life looks good. You have perspective and common sense.” (Richard Carlson)

I encourage you today to think your way out of a low mood and into a high mood, then respond to what needs done, I am sure you will get much better results all round.

Lots of love to you today, as always, Clarabelle.

Happy Child

August 17, 2013August 17, 2013 Claire25 Comments

Clarabelle Age 7, Carfin Village Gala Week

I was such a happy child, I honestly had a fabulous childhood it was so much fun, adventurous, exciting and full of imagination. I had lots of friends and most of the time we made up our own entertainment. We used our imagination to make up dances and songs, we played at football rounders, kick-the-can, hide and seek, beds (hopscotch), races, treasure hunt, lee voy, relay races, obstacles courses, we would climb up trees and make up hidden camps in the park. I am smiling now because my childhood was so so so so happy and I am very proud to say that I am still very close with some of those very special childhood friends almost 35 years later.

Clarabelle and her Brother — Clarabelle Age 6 and Brother Age 9

As a child I always remember being full of dreams and excited ambition, although it was probably portrayed as being too far fetched and a little ‘show off’ at times. I never interpreted it as that myself, I was just so happy and wanted to display my happiness to others, I suppose I wanted them to share my happiness too.

Clarabelle Age 5 — Clarabelle Dancing Age 5

My mum said to me that her memory of me as a child was that I was always singing, she said I would sing from the moment I woke up until I went to bed. The funny thing is I forgot I did that until my mum reminded me of it a couple of years ago. I forgot that I used to do that as a child and I guess I forgot what it was to be that child again singing, dancing and living in a very free-spirited way. However I am finding that the more I understand who I am as a person the more I am becoming that happy spirited child again, the person that I always was but somehow got lost along the way.

Clarabelle and Leanne — Clarabelle (Age 10) & Sister Leanne (Age 5)

At this moment in time, on my journey of life, I am really happy, I feel free-spirited, creative and mesmerised by the beauty in this world. It’s like I am seeing the world again through my childlike eyes, like when I was 7 years old again.

Clarabelle Age 11 (holding Courage Banner in pink)

As a child I loved things like catching my reflection in puddles on a rainy day, gazing up at the stars at night, staring at a summer nights sky and being wondered by all the magical colours and different shapes of clouds. I loved making daisy chains and I would look endlessly at each petal on the daisy, really feeling and smelling its fresh air scent. I loved the great outdoors and just being free, I guess just being me, living in each very moment and seeing each and everything around me as magical.

Now I know why I was a happy child. 🙂 🙂 🙂

May your day today be filled with magical childlike moments that allow you to see the beauty in everything around you. Lots and lots of love to you today, Clarabelle

There is movement, there is change and there is doing things that just feel right…..I am living in the latter. I wrote this next poem for you my friend. Wishing you a day filled with positive changes that make you a better you. Lots of love to you today, Clarabelle

cherry blossom tree

Nothing is still or stays the same

I feel the earth shift under my feet
The air is stirring, I hear its beat
Nothing is still, or stays the same
All is well, in this magical game
When thunder roars, whispers sing
Lightning bolts, form under my wing
I’m soaring high, never letting go
Imagination creates, all on show
It’s time now, my soul is shaken
I open my eyes, from this dream I awaken

Top Ten Bucket List Poem

Since I turned 40 a few weeks ago I have been thinking about creating my very own bucket list but the more I think about it, I feel what is most important to me, is what these experiences give me. So I thought about it a little bit more, as I always do and I came up with the following Top Ten Bucket List poem. I hope you like it. May all your dreams come true and fulfill you in such a meaningful and purposeful way, love Clarabelle

Top Ten Bucket List

In my bucket list of life
I will take these things
First is love and the joy it brings
Second is faith into the light
Third is truth shining bright
Fourth is beauty from inside it glows
Fifth is gratitude where magic grows
Sixth is kindness because I like to give
Seventh is freedom of choice to live
Eighth is wisdom to give me trust
Ninth is patience, this is a must
Tenth is happiness, fulfillment too
My top ten bucket list, I shall do

Step closer to your goal
Sweet diamonds come from coal

inspiration is everywhere

Inspiration is Everywhere

Inspiration is all around
Up above and on the ground
In your heart and in the sun
Colourful flowers and kids having fun
Starry skies and oceans of blue
Walks in the park, all that you do
All that you think, all that you feel
Inspiration, can help you heal
Open your mind, body and soul
Inspiration will make you feel whole
The strangers on the street, have it too
The lonely kid, staring at their shoe
Awake in this moment, know that it’s there
Inspiration is everywhere

Manifesting Dreams

October 27, 2012February 24, 2016 Claire5 Comments

Manifesting Dreams

This next poem is inspired by enjoying each moment, embracing the now and manifesting the dreams that you desire. I wrote this poem whilst feeling in the ultimate moment of contentment, tranquility and happiness. May you manifest each moment to your advantage on this creative journey of life. Love Clarabelle

Manifesting Dreams

This moment is calm, a feeling of bliss,

No thoughts of the future, or pasts I have missed.

Just embracing the now, as I quietly think,

A connected soul, heart and spirit, intertwined in link.

This feels precious inside, so touching indeed,

Contentment and tranquility, has taken the lead.

By appreciating this life, and fueling the fire.

I’m manifesting dreams and all I desire.

Inspiration is Full of Heart

What inspires you? What ignites your spirit from within? What would it take for you to feel inspired at this moment in time, right now? I just love the feeling of feeling inspired, it awakens the soul and lights up the fire inside. Like an explosion of excitement and abundance of enthusiasm, when you are truly inspired there is no mountain that you can’t climb. Wishing you a super inspired day. I hope you enjoy this next poem about inspiration.

Inspiration is full of heart, it comes from deep inside

It fills your soul with energy and captures you with pride

There is nothing greater, than feeling truly inspired

Connecting the mind, body and spirit, never feeling tired

In these inspirational moments, there is nothing you can’t do

Life feels amazing and fulfilled through and through

It moves you, it makes you, it changes your inner self

It masters your soul and gives you abundant health

The Coffee in Your Cup

September 6, 2012August 22, 2015 Claire5 Comments

It is important to recognise each day what you are grateful for in life, even when times are very tough there is always something to have gratitude for. What three things are you grateful for today? This next poem is inspired by this…..what’s in your cup?

When times are getting you down

And you feel like wearing a frown

Remember to be grateful for all that you’ve got

Ask yourself this question – “I am grateful for what?”

Just listing 3 things, will instantly cheer you up

From friends in your life, to the coffee in your cup

It’s all important, just you wait and see

That appreciating life, fills you with glee

So think a little different, in this moment now

And you can turn around tough times, to make you feel just WOW!!

To Have Faith in Your Heart

August 25, 2012August 26, 2012 Claire4 Comments

What does it really mean to have faith? Faith is taking the next step without seeing the whole staircase and ‘Faith is the bird that sings to the dawn while it is still dark’ [Tagore]. Beautiful words and very true, without faith in ourselves and without faith in others, where would we be? The following poem is about love and believing in faith, whatever that maybe for you.

Motion pictures, in my mind

Broken heart, love was blind

Where is the stage, that I do seek?

Empty soul, I feel so weak.

Excited thoughts, of what could be

Embraced together, that’s you and me

But now the gap, swells up inside

I let it go, because of pride

My mouth was dry, I lay on the ground

The words got stuck, just silence, no sound

My dreams of white, as you lead the way

Are lost forever, what do I say

What do I do, is there hope at all?

Let me break these chains, kick down the wall

The audience awaits, with tears in their eyes

The curtain is called, to my surprise

There you stand, with a smile on your face

Is this real, as I stand in this place

The universe was listening, the whispers were loud

It brought us together, out of the crowd

To have faith in your heart, to believe and see

That together as one, we were meant to be

Personal Evolution

August 15, 2012August 26, 2012 ClaireLeave a comment

I have been listening to the audio book ‘The 28 Laws of Attraction’ by Thomas J. Leonard and there are some golden nuggets of wisdom within this, which have enhanced my own learning and development. I particularly love what he feels is the next stage of personal development and that is ‘personal evolution’…..this next poem is inspired by just that. May your day be filled with golden nuggets of wisdom that inspire you to do great things. Lots of love Clarabelle

Personal Evolution

On this path you grow, with all your might

At the crossroads you may stand, which way is right?

From the depths of your heart, you will evolve

Expanding your intelligence, problems you do solve

Your ability is innate, a gift from above

Personal evolution is your next stage, discover it with love.

I’m Alive Inside

June 8, 2012August 26, 2012 ClaireLeave a comment

I have decided this weekend to create my very own vision board. I want to use the experience and joy of this creative process to inspire and motivate me towards all that I want to achieve. I intend to align my newly created vision board with a ‘plan of action’ to make the process more meaningful and in-depth. I have never tried this before but have heard lots of positive things about it and how powerful the process can be, so I am very much looking forward to the experience. I will certainly keep you posted on progress and developments and I will post a photograph of it on my ‘About’ page when it is complete. This next poem is about just that.

I’m Alive Inside

I create a vision board, to inspire me

Colourful pictures, of what will be

I think about, what I will do

To achieve these outcomes and make them true

The creative process, that I go through

Excites my being, I shout out ‘Woo Hoo’

To start with this vision, is all I need

To kickstart the action, my mind it does feed

The fuel of desire, makes me feel so good

I’m alive inside, imagination is my miracle food

The Dream is Alive

May 18, 2012August 26, 2012 Claire2 Comments

What inspires you? What gets you out of bed in the morning? What makes you excited and fills your heart with joy? What makes you feel good? I can honestly say that contributing to this blog answers all of the above questions for me. To inspire others, to share knowledge and learning, to use my creativity and express it with the world, talking to you ticks all of those boxes and more. Thank you for your support and listening it really means alot to me. I hope you enjoy the following poem, keep your dreams alive!!

The Dream is Alive

I jump out of bed, excited inside

Today will be great, I do decide

My mind is buzzing, with wonderful thoughts

Open questions, of how, why and what’s

The wheel is turning, energy flows

With abundant enthusiasm, everything goes

A skip, a hop and a heartfelt mission

Like changing skies, I’m in transition

The outlook is merry, the lights are switched on

The city awaits, soon I’ll be gone

The dream is alive, it’s happening for real

I salute the crowd, they see what I feel

The pursuit of happiness, is not always a drive

When you stop the search, only then you will arrive.

Life is Bliss

May 18, 2012August 26, 2012 ClaireLeave a comment

Hello there and thank you for joining me today. This next poem is inspired by how I am feeling right now, it was written this morning, in between meetings and at the height of my happiness and enthusiasm. I am grateful for the beauty in this day, I wish you a wonderful day full of peace and joy.

Life is Bliss

Life is good

I feel it in my mood

Happiness shines

Sweet beautiful chimes

Apples on the trees

Fresh fruits that please

Lighthearted chatter

My life it does matter

A positive vibe, radiates from me

Like a paradise island, that floats on the sea

The jigsaw puzzle, is now complete

The last piece fits, so perfect and neat

It’s a wonderful world, when I’m feeling like this

Love is all around, life is bliss

Happiness Happiness

May 9, 2012August 26, 2012 Claire4 Comments

I recently heard someone saying, “happiness does not come from success, success comes from happiness”. I had a wonderful conversation with my friend today and we chatted about happiness coming from the smallest, simple things in life – being grateful for family, close friends and meaningful relationships. This next poem is inspired by just that. I wish you a very happy day, full of abundance and love.

Happiness, happiness, what does it mean for you?

The little things in life, so special and so true

A hug, a kiss, a warm and friendly smile

The sun in the sky, or raindrops for a while

The first flower that blossoms, and blooms for all to see

Holding hands in unity, giving love from you to me

Spending time with family, laughing, having fun

Feeling fresh air on your face, when out for a run

The smell of fresh cut grass, awakens senses inside

Celebrating with friends and walking on sands at tide

Whatever it means for you, just let happiness be

True fulfilment in the now and the feeling of being free
