Wisdom From Wayne Dyer

I just watched the movie, The Shift with Wayne Dyer that Hay House recently put out. Wayne had a couple pieces of advice. One of which I don't know that I agree with (the first).

1. Detach from the outcome

2. If your purpose is to serve others, the universe (God, or whatever you call it) will provide - serve you


The first one seems contrary to the law of attraction, which is to envision in as much detail as possible, the exact outcome you want - the goal/desire you wish to manifest and focus on that. You first have to think about what it is you really desire and take steps toward achieving it. I believe that once you take steps toward what you want, you shouldn't worry about the details and just trust that if you keep following what you love, what you're drawn to, the universe will put you on the right path to the end goal. But, I believe you have to keep the end goal in mind and imagining it as you go along.

But who am I to say? I have yet to achieve any of my desires yet (rockstardom, best-selling author, motivational speaker touring the globe). And Wayne has achieved his desires, so maybe he knows something I don't. I have a feeling he might mean you should not try to control HOW you're going to get the outcome because that makes sense to me. But not focusing on the outcome at all? hmmmm

#2 is true because I've experienced it time and time again in my own life. Probably because I feel so good helping others and as I always say, feeling is the language of your spirit and when you're aligned with your spirit, you're aligned with all that is. And the world is at your fingertips, literally.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts on any of this.

Out With The Old...

No more.

When you become too busy to do everything you want, you have to give up some things. I just did my last radio show at WVCP Sunday. It was almost a year and a half run. It was a very cool experience and gave me (and dave who liked to be my co-host a lot) great experience being on air. We had a great interview with Hector at WLUW the other month when we were in Chicago on tour. Plus, it's just a fun, unique experience. You get to play what you want and speak your mind to dozens (ha, it's actually thousands) of people. Where else but a small town community college radio station do you get callers calling in from the county jail or someone who is drunk putting up their christmas tree and just got home from working at walmart where she hates her trainer asking for a song that is gibberish? Where else can you play your friends' bands (and yours of course ;) music and introduce people to a new style of music they've probably never heard before (one caller called in and when I told him I wouldn't play the pop punk song he requested he said, well, I don't know any of this "hipster music"). Where else can you advertise the indie music community's shows and new releases? WVCP, that's where.

I was just looking at my DJ playlist in itunes and it defines my favorite bands/songs from the last year (and beyond). I like having sountracks to my life and that period will be remembered by that music.

 Well, it was a fun run and I felt I had to pay homage to that unique experience I just had so when I'm 80 and have had a million cool unique experiences, I won't forget this one.

Now, on to exciting things with the band and my life coaching & public speaking career. Things are manifesting like crazy.

I plan on still having a talk radio show and will likely do a 1/2 hr weekly show on blog talk radio. I might do a podcast too.

I'll keep the same radio show page on facebook for my future internet radio show, so like my page and I'll keep you updated. Megan Rox's Indie Rox Show
