Where's Alicia been hiding?

Since August it's been a busy time for us with our children.

As they get older, our children are defining the things they enjoy doing. And as homeschooling parents, we encourage them to follow their inate gifts and explore their talents to the fullest.

Our girls have been doing quite a bit of singing in our community and neighbouring communities which have intensified coming into the christmas season. More about that in a bit.

They've also been selling their unique crocheted items at the local Farmer's Market and Craft Shows to raise funds to purchase their instruments. Some of their items have been featured here - see items below.

Happy Thanksgiving + Rising up Over Limitations to Bring Out the Unique in You

Happy Thanksgiving to all my U.S. readers. I hope you have a splendid day tomorrow with family and friends.

Do you allow your limitations to hold you back? Your limitations, whether physical, mental, emotional or educational can keep you from making forward progress, if you let it.

If you allow your limitations to override your desire to succeed then you’ll find yourself feeling stuck in life – getting excited about finally making a break through only to be overcome with the fears of your personal limitations.

Let’s look what you can begin to do right away to rise up over your limitations to bring out the unique in you.



Today's Unique Feature

Each week in this ‘Bringing Out the Unique in You’ training series I’ll be showcasing Unique Hand-crafted Items all created and designed by my daughters and me.

Focus on the positive outcome

As you fuel your emotions with the joy of positive outcome, you’ll find that the thoughts of your limitations holding you back become more diminished as the strength of your success builds. What you focus on and give attention to expands and overtakes your life.

Let’s look at an example. Say that you feel that you want to start a new career or get a job in a new field but you feel that you’re limited educationally in a particular area, what can you do? You can either focus on your lack of knowledge and decide to not take any action at all or you can analyze your strengths and weaknesses, see what you need to bring your skills up and take action in that positive direction.

Now, you might say that you don’t have the money right now to go back to school or take a course. Here’s where you’re focusing on your financial limitations. How can you shift your focus, your attention to help you move beyond this obstacle? Start with what you have available. Get knowledgeable using the resources that are currently accessible to you – the internet, the library, local seminars. What you’re doing is positioning yourself into moving closer to your goal.

Work out a financial plan where you can start saving in order to pay for your course. Start with what you have and keep moving forward and tweak as you go along. Your current job may not pay a lot right now but you can take a closer look at how you’re spending your money. Are you getting the best out of your money? Brand name products do not always mean better. You may be able to purchase the same thing under a different manufacturer for less money. Don’t get caught up in the ‘brand name is better’ mental conditioning. Carefully analyze your expenditure and look for ways to cut back so you can redirect your money wisely.

Is the way you see yourself negatively affecting your relationships?

Because you think that you’re not good enough or beautiful enough you think other people feel that way about you too. That may not necessarily be true. People do pick up on your personal energy however they may not share the opinion you have of yourself. Your negative view of yourself may be preventing the people that care about you from getting close to you.

Develop a positive self-image. Instead of becoming defensive, analyze yourself and take inventory of your strengths and those positive things about you. Also take note of your weaknesses but only to observe and find ways to improve them so they too also become your strengths.

Bring an end to your procrastination

Procrastination will bring any dream you have to a halt. Decide to move forward and after you’ve made the initial decision reaffirm your decision each day until you reach your goal. Then take action every day. A parked car gets nowhere. Get help when needed to shorten your learning curve.

What other things can you do to overcome your other areas of your personal limitations?

4 Tips to Using Your Thoughts to Bring Out the Unique in You

My daughter Lisalee's confidence and unique rendition of the Canada's National Anthem has been opening doors for her to sing at many different events since spring.

Tomorrow she will once again be singing O' Canada at a local luncheon in the presence of our provincial government official British Columbia's Premier Christy Clark, MLA Terry Lake and both Mayors from our local and neighbouring community.

She feels very honoured to have this privilege.

Your thoughts can either bring you down or lift you up. The way you see and believe about yourself and your life will determine the outcome and quality of your days. In order to see your uniqueness and bring out that uniqueness in you, you need to change your thoughts.

Today’s Featured Item, a crocheted hat - brown with light and darker shades of beige mixed with blue and grey, part of the rim tucked with a brown and multi-coloured flower. The brown represents the constant flow of your thoughts. The multi-colours represent the waves and changes in the combination of thought-patterns we choose to nurture. The result can be an exquisite life or chaotic.

Let’s look at 4 tips that can help you use your thoughts to bring out the unique in you.

1. Use the liberty of choice

You can choose what thoughts you want to accept for your life. You have the freedom to do so and you can choose each moment of your day. The quality of your outcome will reflect the quality of your choices. However, in choosing, you need to make choices not solely based on your circumstances but heavily based on the direction you decide to go.

2. Choose quality thoughts

It is not so much how many thoughts you have in a given day but the quality of those thoughts that make the difference in your life. You can have random thoughts running around in your head that do not benefit your life or you can choose to receive and nurture positive strategically directed thoughts that will enhance your life and create a magnetic field around you that pulls in more positive outcomes in your life.

3. Build positive mental images

What kind of mental photos are you capturing? Each mental image has a vibration and the more you focus on that image the stronger the vibration of that image gets. Cancelling out negative images and replacing them with stronger positive images moves you in the direction you truly desire and brings out the uniqueness in you.

4. Let go of fear

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If you’re afraid to step out and let your light shine, you’ll always be living someone else’s thoughts of you. Don’t allow your fears to dictate the quality and level of your life. Eradicate your thoughts of fear and focus on letting your truth shine true.

Let Your Sophistication Shine to Bring Out the Unique in You

Bringing Out The Unique In You


Sophistication begins from inside of you – your unique flair and style of doing things. Your personal sophistication is locked inside of you and you need to allow it to come out. Your idea of sophistication may be different from mine. But one way that you can define sophistication would be to look at the highest level of attitude and behaviour in which you can express yourself in everything you do.

Today's Unique Feature

Each week in this ‘Bringing Out the Unique in You’ training series I’ll be showcasing Unique Hand-crafted Items all created and designed by my daughters and me.

These are one of a kind; no two items are ever the same and you’ll not find these in stores anywhere. Each item is specifically designed to bring out the unique in you.

When you purchase one of these items for yourself or for a special person in your life, use this as a symbol to be reminded each day of how unique you are. 

Today’s featured item is a sophisticated blue crocheted hat with a fluffy trim and flower at the side of the hat. Wearing this exclusive one of a kind sophisticated hat reminds you that you are unique and you don’t have to ‘shrink’ when you’re around others. You matter!


Sophisticated Crocheted Ladies' Hat

Sophistication is not superficial. It goes way deeper than that. What we call sophisticated on the outside – such as style of clothing, house or car – is only physical. And that sophistication can be undermined by negative behaviour leaving a bitter taste in the mouths of others around you.

If we were to focus on achieving the highest standard of sophistication beginning with the way we feel and how we treat other people then the other things will all fall into place – sophistication at its highest level.

How can you achieve that?

By first examining yourself and observing your own behaviour. Do you put on a show for others externally but inside you are totally the opposite of nice? For example, you talk with a person and all smiles but underneath your breath you really hate them. How can you change this behaviour so that, yes, you may not like a person’s attitude, but at the same time you don’t hate the person either?

It all begins from the heart. Love is the greatest channel through which the highest form of pure sophistication can be expressed from within outwardly. Love in your heart brings out your personal charm that cannot be ‘put on’, cannot be faked; it naturally flows from the river of life from the deep reservoir within you.

Open your heart and allow the power of unconditional love to flow through your heart so you can express your personal sophistication and bring out the unique in you.

Do you like the Grandma Mazur in Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series? Then, you'll love Hot Chocolate

If you like Grandma Mazur in Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series, you'll love Hot Chocolate. The characters are all quirky and funny, and, when you aren't laughing out loud, you'll be smiling! It’s a hilarious cozy mystery novel set in the very wealthy Houston suburb of River Oaks. Filled with quirky, eccentric characters involved in murder and chocolate, this book is like watching a Woody Allen movie - even the minor characters are quirky and wonderful.

Here’s the plot: The middle-aged Alcott sisters, heiresses to the Alcott chocolate fortune--Madge, Lila Mae and Dorothea--are fit to be tied. In the midst of busy lives, they must deal with their ninety-two year old father, Bernie, who has become quite the handful. His nurse Bambi, is another kind of handful, but when they decide they must move Bernie to an assisted living facility, the generous severance package they offer to Bambi is not enough to ward off a lawsuit brought by Bambi's husband, Jimmy Ray Chaline. Luckily, the Alcotts, very wealthy and well-known in Houston society, have a great lawyer. Chances are good that the suit will be dismissed as frivolous.

Hot Chocolate is a captivating tale with vivid and fun characters. You could almost visualize yourself socializing with them, and definitely enjoy their interactions with one another. They felt like real sisters, albeit high-society ones. Dorothea is typically the "baby" of the family, and definitely likes being the center of attention. Lila Mae relies on astrology and believes that proper Feng Shui arrangements in a room can make all the difference. Madge, as the oldest, has some unusual habits. Even the peripheral characters, like the staff at each of their homes, as well as Lila Mae's astrologer, felt like important pieces of the production. You'll also enjoy close-ups of the relationship between Chance (a detective with the police force) and Lila Mae, not a typical pairing.

Anyway, I know you will love this book, so grab a copy and you’ll also get about 60 bonuses including a preview of many other new and exciting novels along with terrific self-help tools. ENJOY! http://bit.ly/HtChoc

Having trouble letting your light shine? Are you feeling like you’re surrounded by too much darkness? You have a unique light that belongs to you. No one else can let your light shine but you. You must allow the inner beauty of you to flow out from within and as you allow your beauty to flow your light shines out from within.

As long as you are determined and persistent to let the light that’s within you shine, the darkness around you will dissipate. Light and darkness cannot exist in the same space. Light will always outshine the darkness no matter how small that light may be. Light will always be seen in darkness and if you allow your light, the beauty that’s within you to grow and expand, the darkness that surrounds you will move back and away from you.

Today’s featured items 2 unisex crocheted hats, display black as the foundation colour with the bright colours of red, gold and green. The black symbolizes the darkness that surrounds you.

Asking Questions and Digging Deeper to Bring Out the Unique in You

Bringing Out The Unique In You

You are an interesting being. There’s more to you than meets the eye. But you need to be first interested in you. You must be interested in digging deeper into knowing more about you – who you are, what’s your purpose, why you are here on planet earth, what makes you unique and different from others.

By asking questions, you begin the process of self-searching which leads to self-discovery and self-understanding. Questions have answers and asking the right questions brings the right answers to help clarify and define you as a divine being in this intricate tapestry of life. You are worth exploring. Stir up your childhood curiosity and ask questions.

Everything about you leads to a greater plan - one that you may never had thought about or imagined. Don’t take your life for granted and think that you’re just here taking up space. Your space in this grand design has an ultimate purpose and it cannot be filled with anyone else but you.

What happens when you begin to ask questions?

Questions lead to answers and answers lead to understanding. Once you begin to understand, you have a clearer image of the whole scope of life. You begin to see life and yourself from a different perspective. Each day is met with renewed enthusiasm. With that understanding you can share with others around you so they too can be inspired, uplifted and transcended to a higher standard of living and life.

So what type of questions should you ask? I’ll give you two to begin with.

Observational questions

These questions come from observing your own actions and emotions. Why do I act the way I do? Why am I feeling this emotion? Then you may ask, “How can I change this emotion? How can I respond differently to this?” You see you’re paying attention to you and by paying attention and asking questions in order to improve and change your life the universal power is able to bring the answers you need to help you.

Transformational questions

Transformational questions come from looking deeper into life. You observe nature – trees, animals, the planets – and the nuggets you get from observing them inspire your own life and give you deeper understanding of living.

For example, by observing the growth process of an oak tree, you see that before the oak tree matures, it must start from a seed. The seed when sown in the soil is nurtured as it continues to grow into a seedling and overtime matures into a large tree where birds and squirrels come and find shelter and food.

You can compare this to your own life. How can I apply this to my life? What does this mean for me? How can this help me change my life from the inside out? You may use this as an analogy to help you reprogram your subconscious mind so you can create the changes you desire.

Each stage of your thoughts goes through a process of seed thought and when nurtured with your emotions and actions comes into physical manifestation over time not only benefiting and transforming your life but also influencing the life of those around you.

As stated before, questions lead to answers, answers give understanding and as a result not only is your life changed but you also influence the life of those around you. Begin to look at everything around you and instead of taking things for granted because you’ve grown accustomed to them, look for the fresh nugget each day, in each event and from each person that comes into your life.

Look for and Embrace the Colour in your Life to Bring Out the Unique in You

Our world is filled with colours everywhere. And now that fall is here you can see nature displaying colours of bright yellows and red amidst the rich green. As we leave the summer colours behind - the flowers around, beautiful purple, pink, red, yellow, white etc. – and head into a new season, you learn to welcome and embrace each change.

Check out the colours of the insects – butterflies and bees. What about the varying colours of animals. The rainbow displays the primary colours of nature, the sun its brilliant yellow, the moon borrowing off the sun’s rays to light up the sky with bright white. Isn’t nature beautiful? Life is not dull and boring; even the browns of nature creates a balance and acts as an enhancer of the more brilliant tones. Everything has its place and purpose.

Today’s Featured Item is a ladies crocheted hat with beige as its main colour representing the grounding tone of the earth’s soil. The hat also has multi-colours of red, gold, green and white representing some of earth’s radiant colours.


Today's Unique Feature

Each week in this ‘Bringing Out the Unique in You’ training series I’ll be showcasing Unique Hand-crafted Items all created and designed by my daughters and me.

Your life is also filled with many tones and shades, never a consistently dull moment. As each season of nature brings in new colours of various shades, so do the seasons of your life bring in new adventure with new life lessons to help you grow and become stronger spiritually, mentally and physically.

Even though we may not necessarily be looking forward to the cooler weather, if we were to enjoy the present and look for the miracles and blessings of each season and all the changes that come with it, life unfolds to us a more brilliant splendour. We begin to see life through Spirit eyes and embrace each day with renewed enthusiasm.

Everything goes in cycles, everything changes, nothing stays the same and nothing lasts forever. What we have is here and now and even though you may have gone through many fall seasons in nature, each of them is never exactly the same. Each fall comes with a slight difference from the last. It is the difference that makes the uniqueness between the same season of last year and this year’s.

Even though you’ve lived each day and each day may seem monotonous on the surface, if you take a closer look you’ll see that each day has wrapped in it its own unique adventure and lessons.

Here’s a great exercise for you to do. Begin a daily journal. Get pen and a book and each day write in it. Make sure you put the current date so that later on when you go back to read some of your past recordings you’ll know when certain things occurred.

Doing this exercise makes you more alert and pay more attention to what’s happening in your daily life. It’ll help you realize how many things you actually take for granted and how colourful your life really is.

What can you write in your journal? Life lessons that day. Interesting people you’ve met. Friends who called or came over to your home. Something interesting your children did or said that day. A desire you want manifest. A dream you had the night. What other events may be significant in your day that you can record in your journal?

3 Stress Management Strategies to Use When Dealing with Business Start-up Stress

Starting a business can be an exciting adventure and at the same time opens the door for a lot of stress if you’re not ready or have a plan set in place to cope with all of the requirements needed to get your business set up and ready for business. Putting together a detailed business plan and research may feel like a mentally exhausting process but is still an essential part of your business start-up as it gives you clarity and direction.

Stress Management Strategy #1 – Relax

Relaxing does not mean being passive and do nothing. It only means to do what can be and must be done at a steady consistent pace minus the stress and frustration. If you begin to feel tension, stop, close your eyes, take a few deep cleansing breaths, relax your mind and get back to the task at hand. Or if you can, move away from the material, go for a walk to clear your head and regroup. When you get back you’ll feel refreshed and more creative in your approach.

Stress Management Strategy #2 – Divide your project into smaller portions

Instead of trying to get your entire business plan completed or do all of your research in one day, make a list of all your projects and divide each project into smaller more manageable sections. Assign days on which you will complete each project and then follow your plan. Things become overwhelming if you’re looking at the entire project and thinking how the heck you’re going to get it all done. One step at a time consistently will get you there sooner than you think. You’ll find your journey more productive and enjoyable if you go the way of having a manageable plan.

Stress Management Strategy #3 – Get help

You do not have to do everything all on your own. Learning to delegate certain tasks can help you tremendously in making this process less stressful as possible. For example, finding a competent accountant to take care of your bookkeeping and taxes can eliminate one more thing you have to think about when running a business. It will save you a lot of time and money in the long run especially if you don’t know how to management your own books. What else can you delegate? What competent individuals in your list of contacts – whether family or friends – can you delegate some of your tasks so you can focus on what you do best?

Want help creating your business plan and creating, developing and testing your business idea? Why not schedule a Free 30-Minute No Obligation Self-Empowerment Session with me. You’ll gain clarity and have a better perspective on the direction of your business.

Are You Enjoying the Journey to Bring out the Unique In You?

Are you feeling like you want everything in your life to be perfect right now? You know the saying, “Rome was not built in a day.” So stop being so hard on yourself. Life is a journey, not necessarily a destination. And on this journey you go through many processes of change and growth. Instead of always looking for the next big thing to happen in your life, learn to appreciate and cherish each moment. Look for the miracles in each moment. For all these life occurrences are intricately woven together to bring out the unique in you.

Today's Unique Feature

Each week in this ‘Bringing Out the Unique in You’ training series I’ll be showcasing Unique Hand-crafted Items all created and designed by my daughters and me.

These are one of a kind; no two items are ever the same and you’ll not find these in stores anywhere. Each item is specifically designed to bring out the unique in you.

When you purchase one of these items for yourself or for a special person in your life, use this as a symbol to be reminded each day of how unique you are.

Each unique crocheted item takes patience and relaxation to allow the flow of creativity to inspire and manifest into a unique design. If I am impatient as I create the design, then nothing is accomplished in this process. Each colour is carefully chosen to make sure they fit together in a beautiful blend. Each row is patiently crocheted together building the design one stitch and one row at a time until it reaches completion.

The Master Designer of your life has a great plan for you, even more beautiful than you could have ever imagined it could be. But you can only discover this beauty and enjoy the process when you become flexible in the Master Designer’s hands just as the yarn relaxes into my own. You must trust the process of creativity from the Great Mind of the Universal power.

You are more than yarn. You matter. You are important. Trust and be patient with your own development and go with the flow of the Spirit each hour of every day. Your life will be so much better if you let go and let the Master Designer unfold the beauty that’s already inside of you.

Stop trying to make it all happen all at once. You were not born today and became the man or woman you are now tomorrow. It took time. Every great thing or accomplishment took a process of time – each day a measure of that growth occurred until, before you knew it, you’re all grown up. The same process occurs with your spiritual and mental growth. But it’s worth every step and each day matters, and the cumulative growth brings the results you have now in your life.
