~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 1. Welcome ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Dear Friends – This month marks my tenth year of writing the Intuition Newsletter. A big Thank You to all of my 10,000+ subscribers. I appreciate the emails and notes I receive after each issue and the fact that you forward the newsletters to friends and family. Many of you have met with me over the phone and in-person as intuitive session clients. You’ve also been in my audiences when I’ve given talks and seminars on the topic of intuition. I feel truly blessed that so many of you are inspired by my words and thoughts. Many blessings to all of you. One of my favorite books from 2008 is One Small Step Can Change Your Life by Robert Maurer. He presents a philosophy that I’ve long espoused; when you’re uncertain or scared about something, simply take a small step towards it. It’s a very intuitive approach and one that has reaped big rewards for me. Read #5 below for more information about how to use this wisdom in your own life. In the meantime, I’m in the final stages of writing my next book. I’ll have more information about it for you in the spring. It will be published in September 2009. A long wait, but I guarantee it will be worth it! ;-) In gratitude, Lynn 00-1-617-964-0075 (International calls) 800-925-4002 (U.S. and Canada calls) Lynn@LynnRobinson.com ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 2. Wisdom Quotes ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* We can never know what strengths and revelations might be on the other side of our fears until we face them and feel them all the way through. True positive thinking is the mental stance of surrender, simply trusting the process. We learn to accept what is. — Jacquelyn Small If adversity moves us to rediscover ourselves and the God within us, it becomes an important ally. Pain and change are the Universe’s way of getting our attention so we can shift direction from loss to success. — Alan Cohen I'm astounded by people who want to "know" the universe when it's hard enough to find your way around Chinatown. — Woody Allen I am thankful that thus far today I have not had any unkind thoughts or said any harsh words or done anything that I regret. However, now I need to get out of bed and things may become more difficult. — Sylvia Boorstein Nothing is left to chance. The choreography of players and circumstances is plotted with mind-numbing precision. Gigantic forces of attraction are activated and engaged. The odds for your inevitable success begin skyrocketing. And every second of every day is calibrated and recalibrated... whenever you remember to visualize. — Mike Dooley at Tut.com There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. — Albert Einstein ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* 3.

I decided to write a thirty-week e-course on the topic. I’ve always been fascinated by the fact that some people seem to create abundance and success in their lives and others seem to experience only failure and poverty. Is it fate? Are there a lucky few who are destined to have money, fame and fortune? I wrote this course because I believe each of us has been given all the resources we need to accomplish the mission we came here to fulfill. We learn to create abundance in our lives and in our world through the power of our thoughts and the connection of our Spirit. Many of us have not only forgotten our life purpose, we have also forgotten how to use the tools that forge the path to prosperity, success, love and health. In the “Dear God: Send Money” thirty-week course you’ll find tools, exercises, inspirational quotes and techniques to help you create financial as well as spiritual abundance.

The Small Step Action Plan ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Robert Maurer is the author of One Small Step Can Change Your Life. I think it should be required reading for anyone who is experiencing a crisis or simply feeling stuck. His technique is undeniably simple. It also taps into your own inner wisdom to provide the answers you seek and helps you overcome fear and inertia. His philosophy is that small steps are things that all of us can do. They add up to big changes because they’re doable and manageable. Obviously, his book provides much more detail, but here are four keys that provide a brief overview: 1) Ask small questions. “If health were my first priority, what could I be doing differently today?” 2) Think small thoughts. Think of a task or situation that makes you uncomfortable or fearful. Spend a few seconds (not minutes) each day on visualizing a successful outcome. 3) Take small actions. Examples: If your goal is to stop overspending, a small action might be to remove one item from your shopping cart before heading to the register. If your goal is to manage your stress better, a small action could be to take one deep breath. 4) Solve small problems. You’ll often receive intuitive messages about an impending crisis well before the crisis arrives. Don’t ignore early warning signs. Listen. Pay attention and act on the information you’re receiving. Every time we achieve something new in life it starts with a single step. Don't fall into the trap of imagining that everything has to be perfect. It never will be. Your task is to figure out what you want. Then allow the Universe to begin bringing together the resources necessary for you to have your dream. Then it's time for you to take a step in faith and go for your dream. Don’t imagine that the heroes or heroines you look up to haven’t gone through this same process. They have! If thinking about risk has you running for cover, you might consider the words of former Olympic Gold Medalist swimmer, Brian Goodell, who said, "We all experience doubts and fears as we approach new challenges. The fear diminishes with the confidence that comes from experience and faith. Sometimes you just have to go for it and see what happens. Jumping into the battle does not guarantee victory, but being afraid to try guarantees defeat." Everyone has a different set of circumstances that make up their comfort zone. When you choose to move out of the perceived safety of the known and into the unknown, miracles will begin to occur. With each risk you take you'll start to feel more and more comfortable. You'll find that the Universe will start to deliver your dreams to you more quickly. Your self-confidence and self-esteem will improve and you'll begin to feel powerful. Your vision of yourself and what you can achieve in the world will begin to expand. As you become bigger, you’ll find you can hold a vision of what you want to achieve, and before you know it, success will be yours. You already have more power than you can imagine! Begin to own it. It will provide you with enormous energy to create your dreams. But for now, take the first step! ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~ 6. Some of My Favorite Things ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Many subscribers have sent me the link to the film clip, “Finding Joy.” If you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll find it uplifting and enjoyable. Bloomberg.com had a recent article on celebrities and executives who meditated. Even Cheetos maker Frito-Lay turned to some non-western ways. The unit of PepsiCo Inc. recently invited Deepak Chopra, a spiritual teacher, author and adjunct professor at the Kellogg School of Management, to talk to its employees. Cheryl Richardson is the author of several best-selling books including Life Makeovers and Take Time for Your Life. Every month she interviews other authors on topics of personal and spiritual growth. Recent guests have included Louise Hay, Debbie Ford and Harville Hendrix. You can enjoy her sessions at her website’s archives. One of my favorite newsletters is from Mike Dooley who writes messages from “The Universe” at Tut.com. Tut stands for “Totally Unique Thoughts.” He delivers a personalized message each day! They’re funny, uplifting and often irreverent. Here’s a recent one that got me visualizing again: “Lynn, what is it that you'd really, really like to see happen in your life, but have not visualized in a really, really long time? Right. Well, let's just say, conditions are now favorable... and it's time to rock and roll. Go on, _ The Universe”_ ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Subscription Information ~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* To unsubscribe, click here. Be sure to check the unsubscribe button.
