Thanks Guinevere and Brandi! It’s good to know you’re both out there. And of course, I am honored to be a part of your expansion!

Kathy – Actually, my coach and i read through my “good mojo” file – where I keep all the emails I get from people who have read my blog and made extra money – through jobs, raises, taking chances on new business, etc. And we talked about value and the investment people have made when they participate in my eSeminar – and that was the amount we chose. (Truly, it’s kind of an experimental thing.)

expanding, not shrinking, has been a mantra going over and over in my head these days.

I can’t thank you enough for the guidance and support you give me and countless others through this blog (and now magazine! OMG! so exciting!).

I have an intention buddy, thanks to your guidance.
I take that step to expand not shrink. even if it’s a small step
I move to feel a little bit better when I’m having a bad day.

and countless other wonderful enriching life activities.

Hello Christine, I’ve been lurking from time to time reading your blogs, and I wanted to finally take a moment and say “Thank You”. I love your site, your blog, your music. The positive energy and overall enviroment of encouragement are amazing. I wanted to make sure I didn’t let another day go by without saying thank you…

Live Creative. I SO try to do that. But sometimes I get bogged down in the muck of the talking heads. Your tips, techniques, wake up calls and musings always help to get me back on the creator path. I enthusiastically signed up for your e-zine and will be telling all my friends and family about it … but I’m dying to know how you figured out that it is worth $197/year.

Christine,

Thanks for your insightful, timely posts! Yes, we are being inundated with negativity, seems now more than ever. One way to “create” a more positive reaction is to look for the opposite. In other words, just say…”hmm, I wonder who is benefiting from this?….and good for them”. You see, when the market goes down, not everybody loses. Some are making money. When it goes up, some are losing. Some businesses are now taking off because of what’s going on. Regarding the environmental changes…ask, “which species are now flourishing due to climate change?” even..”how am I benefiting?”. Any perceived negative has its opposite….positive. It can’t exist otherwise. Any situation that you’ve labeled “negative”….examine it, and you’ll always be able to find that is not 100% true. So, create a better outlook by looking for the sunny side.

Wonderful stuff Christine. This is the first time I’ve commented although I’m always giving you a high five in my mind as every post is a winner! But this one in particular is such a breath of fresh air compared to all the negative hype that the media is having an absolutely field day with, that I just wanted to say thanks!
It’s very weird…I hear all this stuff on the news and see all the red arrows on the stock market…and yet…my own world doesn’t reflect this. I’m still in my studio almost every day creating or sharing what I know. I’m still watering the garden and picking flowers. I’m still taking the dog to the beach a few times a week. The sun still rises like the big beautiful orb that it is. If money gets tight, as it’s done before and not necessarily because of the ‘market’, then who cares that I can’t have that holiday or buy those Berkies I want. I don’t. I still have me…cuddles with my dog…artful adventures…flowers…friends…endless love…creativity…
