Synchronicity, Luck, Hard Work?

By Liz Zed

It seems that Thomas Jefferson's take on his own luck was that the harder he worked, the more luck he seemed to have!  Reading the quote immediately after writing today's first blog post was an example of a lovely synchronicity, both in its timeliness and in its content. The women mentioned as participants in last night's conversation on luck and in today's earlier post, all had decades of 'hard work' under their belt. One of the curious questions arising during and after last night's conversation, revolved around to what extent one's sense of self as lucky altered the experience of hard work. Clearly, having a vivid vision and taking consistent action toward creating that vision, holds the likelihood of abundant manifestation. But will the hard work undertaken to get there be experienced with more joy? And perhaps might it not also be experienced after all, as easier and more effortless?

Does Hard Work Create More Luck?

By Liz Zed

Starting to see some nice responses of gratitude from readers for creating awareness of choosing how we feel by way of where we place our attention. By choosing mindful attention on the positive feedback instead of on the constant interruptions and obstacles that were arising today, I was effectively catapulted into significantly increased vibrational mood-shifting easily. This seemed to piggyback on the luck theme. Then I came across this quote from Thomas Jefferson posted by http://alohafamilyproperties.webs.com/ "I find that the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have". Putting attention on Jefferson's quote dovetailed so nicely with the residual thoughts that had been continuously percolating since last night's conversation and today's earlier blog post on luck.

Just Noticing Luck Today

By Liz Zed

Last night the topic of luck came up. Marina, a long-time friend who  I can essentially say knows the 'hard life' of a 'pioneer' because she's lived it, feels that much of her life currently is, and has been blessed with luck. Meanwhile, some of Marina's friends who've navigated a similar pioneering-style environment feel quite differently. Sandra, for instance, takes the view that her own current lifestyle reflects the fact that she has 'managed' and  planned her life very well. Both women are substantially more comfortable materially now than they were a couple of decades ago. For Sandra, her prosperous observable results have little to do with luck. For Marina, just noticing her luck is enough to raise her experience of joy and her experience of her life as prosperous.

What's Going On In There?

By Liz Zed

Tuesday, Apr 14, 2009 01:09

It's a beeeoootiful morning and I'm noticing that I'm feeling..... quick choose! Are you starting to get it? It's all about where the attention goes. Plus how it goes there! Now that I know there are things outside the window that have the ability to delight, one of the things I can do is call upon a reference from my experience to help me choose how to feel! I can think about something that I know has created sensations of joy in the past and put my attention There. Is there a buzzy bee at work guarding the blooms on bushes and vines and setting the stage for more blossoming bliss? Is there a bird with twigs in its beak getting ready to build a welcoming nest somewhere close? What's going on in nature land to get inspired or excited about?
