Or, perhaps you were quickly dismissed or ignored?

Perhaps the Acceptance Prophecy is in action…are you familiar with the Acceptance Prophecy?

Basically it says, ‘When we think other people are going to like us, we behave more warmly towards them and consequently they like us more. When we think other people aren’t going to like us, we behave more coldly and they don’t like us as much.’

So, is this true?

There has been some behavioral research along these lines to prove or disprove the Acceptance Prophecy.  Here is a summary of the research as reported by Psyblog: Click here for the Psyblog article on the Acceptance Prophesy

To summarize the article: “What the results showed was that when the risk of rejection was lower, men acted more warmly towards the woman to whom they were talking. This extra warmth also lead to a panel of observers liking them more in comparison with those who were more fearful of risk and therefore inter-personally colder.”

Did you pick up on one of those points?  “…in comparison with those who were more fearful of risk and therefore inter-personally colder.”

Just a subtle fear, most times, but fear nonetheless, can make or break the first 30 seconds of that meeting and send it down a path of vibration that is lacking in love and acceptance.

What happens most times when we start down the slippery slope of fear?

That’s right, it usually gets worse!

Now, here’s the most enlightening aspect of this article…

There was an exception according to the article, “There was an exception, though, to the results of this study. One sub-group were not affected by the experimental manipulation to increase how much they expected to be accepted. That’s because they already expected to be accepted. These are the social optimists (or at least people who think rather a lot of themselves!). Social optimists, of course, are in the happy position of expecting to be accepted and finding that, generally speaking, they are.”

The speed in which you manifest something in this world depends in large part upon the certainty or knowing that you have of its imminent happening.  You must be certain without any “yeah-buts”…without any tail enders.

**IMPORTANT POINT**
The more tail enders and yeah-buts that you have running through your mind, the less likely the initial thought, desire or even inspiration will materialize!  That’s right, even if you have an inspiration, you can and will sabotage it!

You must clear the barriers to allow life to flow through you.

Alright, good stuff; but you are asking, ‘How can it help me’, right?

Here are some suggestions that you can add to Your Personal Peace list and then clear those issues using your EFT and tapping:

1. Look for specific events where you did not make a great impression with a person or group of people.
2. Do you remember events where someone rejected you outright?
3. How about a time where you just could not connect with someone?
4. What about an instance in your past where someone just would not listen to you?
5. Discover memories of times when you were rejected, not accepted or your suggestions and proposals were rejected.

Special Notes:

• Be sure to connect and feel the emotions you are feeling TODAY when you recall those events and follow your EFT protocol to clear the emotional connection to those events one by one.
• Do not discount any memory, vision, event or thought as inconsequential…they all have an effect!  Remember, even the subtle fears and concerns can alter the course of your behavior and actions.

If you need help with EFT and tapping, a step-by-step and affordable place to start is with Your Personal Peace.

Do not allow your memories and the unpleasant emotions of the subconscious to rob you of wonderful meetings, acquaintances, friendships and even intimate relationships.

Remove your barriers and watch not only your relationships become golden, but your other experiences as well.

Keep tappin’…aloha!

Love is in the air!

The newlyweds returned from Hawaii, opened their wedding gifts (they will need a bigger place) and are settled into their new home.

They loved Hawaii…stayed over in Honolulu at Waikiki Beach and toured quite a bit of the island of Oahu.

You know, Hawaii is considered paradise for so many reasons…it’s a wonderful place…there’s a beautiful energy about it…some say, it can transform you, but that can either be enlightening or frightening.

In the spirit of celebrating the return of the newlyweds…here are two things I want to share with you:

First of all…some questions for you to ponder and discover about yourself:

What is paradise to you?

What do the writings on your walls tell you that is necessary so that you feel you are in paradise?

Is it paradise where you are or do you need to leave and find it somewhere else?

Secondly, I want to share a little poem I put together for the newlyweds…enjoy it!

Take care and keep tappin’!

Welcome Back to Paradise

Welcome back from paradise,
From the land of aloha;
So difficult to leave, I’m sure,
Back to the wikiwiki life north of Baja.

Thoughts of regret and resignation,
Haole are well known for this;
Because we forget mahalo,
For all in life we receive, all the gifts.

You two have a special makana,
A humble love for one another;
Express and feel that every moment,
If done with grace it will not smother.

Stay close with your ohana,
They will offer unconditional love;
Wisdom, kokua and kindness,
Endless gifts from above.

Strong winds blow the palm trees,
They sway, bend, but do not break;
If we live our lives in pono,
Paradise is what we will create.

As you think of Hawaii,
Recall the ha’awina, carry that symbol;
Create paradise in every moment,
The only thought that is truly rational.

Returning from paradise can be sad,
Unless you bring it with you;
So, hold it in your pu’uwai,
Create a paradise in everything you do.

Clint and Kathy, my son and daughter,
Don’t think too much or even twice;
Allow your mana to grow as a team,
Welcome back to paradise.

Aloha nui loa
Dad

Hello Friends!

Remember a few weeks ago I mentioned my son’s wedding?

Well, I finally put together some pictures, video and nice background music in the video clip below.

Weddings are nice, aren’t they?

So many emotions flowing!

Although I always say that ALL emotions are good emotions because of the message they carry for us, well, that day it was definitely all good emotions!

I appreciate you coming by to celebrate with me for a few minutes.

Take care and keep tappin’!

Jeff
