Several months ago, I bought 3 magic wands. One for my dtr, her hubby and 1 for myself. They were $1 each.... sequined stars, with tiny ribbon streamers. As I gave the 2 to my daughter, I said.... 'These are to remind us that life is indeed *magical* xo xo Deb Estep I love your message here Andrea.

I definitely find as well in working with clients that people tend to think the obstacle they're facing is a lack of knowledge, but it's actually a fear of the time and effort it will take to gain that knowledge and the possibility of screwing up along the way.

Andrea, this is a good one :-) In fact, I DO have a magic wand! I bought it for my daughter when she was very little - it's clear plastic filled with water - and stars, glitter and all manner of fancy, sparkly stuff. When you hold it to the light it looks very magical indeed. Couldn't just put that in a yard sale, now could I? Anyway, you point is right-on. I think of this story every time I feel daunted and it works: how did the ant eat the elephant? One bite at a time! ;-) LOL! Andrea, this is a good one :-)

Not just that we have the potential to accomplish by using our intention and free will, but that the daunting can be made easy by taking manageable steps. Like my friend that I mentioned before, who was trekking in the Himalayas. He found a formidable ascent before him at the end of a long, weary day. Rather than focus on the difficulty facing him, he concentrated on each step before him, each one possible, each one simple. And he made it. And then he enjoyed the panorama of the Himalayan ranges before him in all their splendor. Andrea, like Slade, I appreciate the reminder.

I went to bed last night asking (revisiting, really) this essential question: "What WOULD I create with a magic wand?" I think sometimes we get a little side-tracked or "lost" between the Next Obvious Steps, with our noses to the ground... "forgetting" what the Original Big Creative Intention was to begin with. I absolutely agree that the Magic Wand is "ordinary" and we miss that looking for something "supernatural" - when there really is no such thing... This article was a nice "refresh" and "reboot" - an opportunity to check in with the original course I'd plotted and see how that aligns with my current actions. I LOVE this reminder, Andrea!

Makes me think of the directions on the back of a shampoo bottle: lather, rinse, and repeat if necessary. And we all know how to wash our hair without rereading and contemplating the directions each time. Thank you so much for this very practical reminder of how easy it is to choose, do and create.

I signed up through Hay House for an online tutoring in how to build your business website. I have been working away at it since 1030A this morning, took a quick lunch with my children, and then off again to continue. At 330P, I was feeling really drained, some frustration too, as I had intended to spend the day cleaning, and enjoying some fun time with my kids. Then in comes your email about building a website - how amazing - how supportive of the Universe. Just the boost I needed to take it on again tomorrow! Hi Andrea,
