“3 Shocking Lessons from the Hologram”

Mari Smith, “The Pied Piper of Facebook,” and moi

When I found out the news, I didn’t know how to react.

I was in shock, disbelief, I cried, I screamed! Why? You might ask?…

I GOT INVITED TO THE GRAMMYS and to walk the red carpet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

…by a woman I cherish and admire, the inimitable Mari Smith, also known as the “Pied Piper of Facebook.” She has over 58,000 fans on Twitter and thousands of fans on Facebook. She is a wizard at Social Networking not to mention just being an all-around genuine person. Do look her up at Facebook and Twitter and get on her magical train. She will teach you a lot!

She had one extra ticket and asked me to go with her. I said, “Mari, you have like 80,000 friends, why me?” She laughed her musical laugh and said, “We’ll have fun.” (And one of our BFFs is also coming with us - yes, we’ll share pictures later.)

Then she said, on a more serious note, “I’ve seen how you support people. You are truly happy for their success, like a proud mother. It’s touching.” For those of you who know me, you know I started to cry. (I’m a crier!)

Then she said, “Hey, I really want you to read my hands!”

I gave Mari a mini hand analysis session at a live event back in 2008 and in exchange, she got me rolling on Facebook and Twitter. When we meet later this month, I’ll have the privilege of reading Mari’s mitts, live and in-person!

After the session has had time to sink in, I’ll ask Mari if she’d like to have her Life Purpose story as a feature article… I can’t make any promises, but it’d be a good one!

I bet you’re wondering what the heck this has to do with the hologram.

The speed with which the hologram reflects our personal and collective consciousness is startling/numbing, bewildering/explainable, wonderful/horrible, fast/slow, gorgeous/unsightly.

With that, I wish to share 3 Shocking Lessons from the Hologram with you!

#1 The Hologram Enjoys Synchronicities

I’ve loved rock music my whole life (and married a lead guitarist!). Curiously, I wrote the rock n’ roll update section of this newsletter over the holidays before I wrote this article. Then the invite to the Grammys from Mari arrived this week just after our team completed a development meeting on a new service that we’re creating for the music and film industries. It’s a completely new business of the three interconnected businesses we are growing this year.

When I shared this interesting intersection of my passions with recent life events with Mari, there was a silent aha between us. Then she said, “And now you’re going to the Grammys!” Woot! Woot!

As Mark often says, “What are the chances of that?… 100%!”^TM (Yes, we actually trademarked Mark’s quote!)

Coach’s Challenge: Are you noticing a lot of synchronicities, just a little or none at all? In my personal experience, if synchronicity is flowing, there is a major alignment between your Life Purpose and your willingness to receive the Universe’s answer to that purpose. If the synchronicities are long in coming or absent entirely, I’ve found it means I’m probably on the wrong track and need to redirect my decisions and actions. Also, if you are complaining, blaming, or otherwise resisting, that blocks the flow of synchronicity in your life. If you want, post a comment here and let me know your experience with synchronicities.

#2 The Hologram Isn’t Real - It’s A Mirror Image

I often hear the phrases “thoughts create reality” and “life is your mirror.” There is a measure of truth in these statements. However, I would offer that thoughts influence reality (if you can tell the difference between fantasies you don’t actually want to live out and those that you do). And life may indeed be a mirror, but not just of your own thoughts, feelings and actions, but that of the collective consciousness of the people around you.

The hologram - your everyday life experience - reflects back many things you probably didn’t even know existed in you. The hologram continually parades before us our dominant thoughts in action as well as unconscious thoughts that need to be brought to the surface and rooted out.

As I came to the awareness that our business seemed to be attracting more and more opportunities to work with rock musicians and well-known celebrities (and I’ve been doing more and more hand analysis sessions for these famous folks), the hologram, within days, offered me an opportunity to create even more connections in one of my favorite worlds - the world of music - by attending the Grammys! I’ve always been a bit wild and free and being with wild, uncensored, expressive creative folks is where I feel most at home. (That’s why I changed my college major from Economics to Acting & Directing!)

I also noticed that given my Life Purpose is the “Successful Business Owner and Spiritual Teacher in the Spotlight with Heart,” it was time for me to go even BIGGER with my message in a way I haven’t.

Since I wasn’t carefully paying attention to this truth in my own Life Purpose, the hologram brought me a string of Life Lesson challenges this year. Our Life Lesson is our blind spot or least evolved skill. It is the KEY to your hands and the KEY to your life. When you learn from your lesson, your purpose grows. If you avoid your lesson, your purpose goes south.

I realized that in some areas of my business, I was experiencing tremendous challenges but didn’t feel I could appropriately share my heart ache and personal experience. It felt too personal, too vulnerable and too exposing.

My Life Lesson is about loving myself no matter the emotional context and expressing what I feel regardless of the expectations of others. In some instances, my emotional responses were misunderstood, which deepened my self-judgment and inability to forgive myself for being human.

At first, the hologram gives you a whisper. If you don’t listen, it gives you a kick. If you still don’t listen, it gives you a tsunami. You may be left wondering, “Huh, why is this happening?”

No spiritual test is ever ‘personal.’ It is designed to develop our soul and move us to the next level.

Life is so bloody obvious sometimes, that even when the blood is dripping down your forehead into your eyes and sand is burrowed into your scalp from the third wakeup -spanking, there is a stubborn, ego-driven refusal to admit that, “Hmmmm, this approach may not be working.”

Coach’s Challenge: I invite you to write down three things currently in your life that are irritating, upsetting, frustrating, or painful. It could be a loud neighbor (a neighbor like me, for instance J), a sore foot, a disaster-zone closet or car trunk, a chronically dissatisfied child, spouse or client, or financial issues.

Get really specific about the ‘problem’ and then ask yourself this, “If I truly believe that everything that happens in my hologram is designed to wake me up to my true self, what is the true purpose of this situation?” Then OWN it fully, knowing you created the neighbor, the sore foot, the heart ache, etc.

I created those intense experiences in my hologram from my energetic patterns and anyone involved in those experiences also created me.

I have come to realize that all of the challenging events of my life are just opportunities for me to grow and learn. When difficult situations come into my life, I try to remember this and use these challenges as a chance to remain calm and not to react emotionally. I know that it is just an opportunity to engage them in a way that will allow all concerned to grow and learn.

First, I look inward to honestly admit what my part in the experience has been and acknowledge my own faults. I try to be totally honest with myself since that is the only way I can learn and move forward.

By not reacting emotionally, I am keeping the door open for future interaction because no one’s feelings are hurt. I try to remember that when people blame and point fingers without logical reason, they are usually just acting out of fear.

Then I respond calmly and offer solutions based on the facts as I see them and that come from my own integrity. This is not always comfortable though, because being in integrity also means standing strong by my personal convictions and commitments to myself and to others. One BIG lesson this year has been learning to stand up for what I believe is right and in alignment with my Life Purpose.

When the dust settles, I then review how I want to integrate what I have learned into specific actions for the future.

The bottom line for me is that the Universe has showed me that I need to be playing a much bigger game. I need to bring my message to millions of people worldwide. Okay, okay, Universe, I am listening!

#3 The Hologram Craves The Expression of Your Life Purpose

If you continue to follow the whispers of the Universe, more and more synchronicity flows into your life. If you refuse to listen, more and more tests, of increasing intensity, will show up to remind you of your Life Purpose.

Go ahead and write down your Life Purpose as you understand it today (whether you’ve had your Life Purpose Spiritual Blueprint deciphered with me or not).

Now ask yourself, “Am I fully expressing my Life Purpose to the best of my ability?” Then look at these four categories and rate your satisfaction with them on a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being lowest, 10 being highest):

• Finances
• Personal relationships
• Health
• Spirituality

Here’s the good news: you can change your scores if you don’t like them. Here’s the bad news: your ratings directly express how effectively and successfully you are living your Life Purpose.

Here are those categories again. Rate them on what you would LIKE them to be:

• Finances
• Personal relationships
• Health
• Spirituality

After you’ve put in your ideal ratings, write down what kind of person you would have to be to have that rating. For example, if you want a 10 in the health category, what kind of person would you need to be? Maybe you need to exercise four days a week, drink more water, hang out with other healthy people, etc. Unless those fundamental changes occur, your desire will simply stay a number on paper. It’s up to you.

As you take more and more actions that give you “10″ ratings, you will notice that your Life Purpose begins to rapidly accelerate in its expression and success. You may also notice that uncomfortable learning experiences come up faster and faster to be released from your holographic field. The learning experiences never end, because we have to constantly learn new life skills to fulfill our purpose.

I’ve learned, from the shocking lessons of my hologram, that I must always stay focused on the BIGGEST expression of my Life Purpose (vs. a smaller, hide-out version), that difficulties arise to show me where I’m not listening or where I need to develop more of my inner resources and abilities, and that synchronicity flows when I remove all self-judgment from my life.

The hologram of the past year kicked my butt over and over and every time I woke up, another amazing synchronicity would pop up as if to say, “Thank you for listening.”

I thank YOU for reading and hope that my sharing some of my more embarrassing, painful, and exciting breakthroughs is useful to you in your journey. We are all in this together, creating each other for our own education. The minute a lesson is done, the energy surrounding it disappears, to be replaced by a new energy.
