Setting goals is easy but achieving them isn't. That's why setting
"SMART" goals - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and
Timely - is the first step in making your goal a reality.
Realistic goals are achievable goals, unrealistic goals are just dreams.
It's not necessary to be negative but take time to honestly evaluate
whether you're being realistic. Losing 30 pounds in 2 weeks is not
impossible but it's not very likely and certainly not healthy.
Make your goal Timely by stating a due date for your goal AND the
action steps involved in achieving it.
2. Align your goals with your values. If your goal doesn't reflect your
beliefs and character then you'll have difficulty achieving it. And
even if you do manage to get what you want, you won't be very
happy. Set a goal which is meaningful to you and be clear about the
consequences of your outcome.
3. Share your goals with three to five key people. Not everyone needs
this strategy with every goal but almost everyone can benefit from it
5

4. Assemble everything you need before you need it. This prep work is
vital in eliminating the frustrating and time consuming "running
around" which can derail your progress later on.
6. Complete at least one action per day. Consistent actions will propel
you towards your goal. Even choosing a small task will make a dent in
your to-do list and may motivate you to do even more.
8. Reward Yourself. Don't wait until you achieve your goal, especially
if it's a long-term one. Reward yourself as you reach certain
milestones. Something as simple as scheduling time for yourself or
perhaps a special treat that you've felt guilty about indulging in can
keep you motivated to keep going.

It’s also very important that you include your goals for
the next 30 days (and even further into the future if
you like). Use pictures and colours to plan your goals.
Next to each goal write how switching to a low fat raw
vegan diet will help you achieve them.
7
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
It’s also a good idea to work out a plan that you can
follow and stick to. Ask yourself …

Values
The following list of values will help you develop a clearer sense of
what's most important to you in life. Mark the values which most
resonate with you, and then sort your list in order of priority. As you
scan the values list below, you may find that while most values have
little or no significance to you (and some may even seem negative to
you), there are those values that just jump out and call to you, and
you feel, "Yes, this value is part of me." This values list is merely a
guide. It is lengthy and contains many synonyms but is certainly not
exhaustive, so feel free to add unlisted values to your own list as well.

My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
How do you discover your real purpose in life? I’m not talking about your job,
your daily responsibilities, or even your long-term goals. I mean the real reason
why you’re here at all — the very reason you exist.
Perhaps you’re a rather nihilistic person who doesn’t believe you have a purpose
and that life has no meaning. Doesn’t matter. Not believing that you have a
purpose won’t prevent you from discovering it, just as a lack of belief in gravity
won’t prevent you from tripping. All that a lack of belief will do is make it take
longer, so if you’re one of those people, just change the number 20 in the title of
this blog entry to 40 (or 60 if you’re really stubborn). Most likely though if you
don’t believe you have a purpose, then you probably won’t believe what I’m
saying anyway, but even so, what’s the risk of investing an hour just in case?
Here’s a story about Bruce Lee which sets the stage for this little exercise. A
master martial artist asked Bruce to teach him everything Bruce knew about
martial arts. Bruce held up two cups, both filled with liquid. ―The first cup,‖ said
Bruce, ―represents all of your knowledge about martial arts. The second cup
represents all of my knowledge about martial arts. If you want to fill your cup
with my knowledge, you must first empty your cup of your knowledge.‖
If you want to discover your true purpose in life, you must first empty your mind
of all the false purposes you’ve been taught (including the idea that you may have
no purpose at all).
So how to discover your purpose in life? While there are many ways to do this,
some of them fairly involved, here is one of the simplest that anyone can do. The
more open you are to this process, and the more you expect it to work, the faster
it will work for you. But not being open to it or having doubts about it or thinking
33
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
it’s an entirely idiotic and meaningless waste of time won’t prevent it from
working as long as you stick with it — again, it will just take longer to converge.
1. Take out a blank sheet of paper or open up a word processor where you can
type (I prefer the latter because it’s faster).
2. Write at the top, ―What is my true purpose in life?‖
3. Write an answer (any answer) that pops into your head. It doesn’t have to
be a complete sentence. A short phrase is fine.
4. Repeat step 3 until you write the answer that makes you cry. This is your
purpose.
For those who are very entrenched in low-awareness living, it will take a lot
longer to get all the false answers out, possibly more than an hour. But if you
persist, after 100 or 200 or maybe even 500 answers, you’ll be struck by the
answer that causes you to surge with emotion, the answer that breaks you. If
you’ve never done this, it may very well sound silly to you. So let it seem silly, and
do it anyway.
As you go through this process, some of your answers will be very similar. You
may even re-list previous answers. Then you might head off on a new tangent and
generate 10-20 more answers along some other theme. And that’s fine. You can list
whatever answer pops into your head as long as you just keep writing.
34
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
At some point during the process (typically after about 50-100 answers), you may
want to quit and just can’t see it converging. You may feel the urge to get up and
make an excuse to do something else. That’s normal. Push past this resistance, and
just keep writing. The feeling of resistance will eventually pass.
You may also discover a few answers that seem to give you a mini-surge of
emotion, but they don’t quite make you cry — they’re just a bit off. Highlight
those answers as you go along, so you can come back to them to generate new
permutations. Each reflects a piece of your purpose, but individually they aren’t
complete. When you start getting these kinds of answers, it just means you’re
getting warm. Keep going.
It’s important to do this alone and with no interruptions. If you’re a nihilist, then
feel free to start with the answer, ―I don’t have a purpose,‖ or ―Life is
meaningless,‖ and take it from there. If you keep at it, you’ll still eventually
converge.
When I did this exercise, it took me about 25 minutes, and I reached my final
answer at step 106. Partial pieces of the answer (mini-surges) appeared at steps 17,
39, and 53, and then the bulk of it fell into place and was refined through steps
100-106. I felt the feeling of resistance (wanting to get up and do something else,
expecting the process to fail, feeling very impatient and even irritated) around
steps 55-60. At step 80 I took a 2-minute break to close my eyes, relax, clear my
mind, and to focus on the intention for the answer to come to me — this was
helpful as the answers I received after this break began to have greater clarity.
35
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
When you find your own unique answer to the question of why you’re here, you
will feel it resonate with you deeply. The words will seem to have a special energy
to you, and you will feel that energy whenever you read them.
Discovering your purpose is the easy part. The hard part is keeping it with you
on a daily basis and working on yourself to the point where you become that
purpose.
If you’re inclined to ask why this little process works, just put that question aside
until after you’ve successfully completed it. Once you’ve done that, you’ll probably
have your own answer to why it works. Most likely if you ask 10 different people
why this works (people who’ve successfully completed it), you’ll get 10 different
answers, all filtered through their individual
belief systems, and each will contain its own reflection of truth.
Obviously, this process won’t work if you quit before convergence. I’d guesstimate
that 80-90% of people should achieve convergence in less than an hour. If you’re
really entrenched in your beliefs and resistant to the process, maybe it will take
you 5 sessions and 3 hours, but I suspect that such people will simply quit early
(like within the first 15 minutes) or won’t even attempt it at all. But if you’re
drawn to read this blog (and haven’t been inclined to ban it from your life yet),
then it’s doubtful you fall into this group.

This exercise will help you define your life values. Review the
following list of 374 values to identify those you consider important.
As you go through the list, simply delete the ones that don't matter to
you, or bold the ones that do. Aim for no more than 15 values on your
final list. Finally, sort your list in order of priority, so your most
important value is #1, your next most important is #2, and so on.
You can use this list to help you make important decisions by asking,
"What would a person with these values do in this situation?" When
you know what's most important to you, it's easier to make consistent
decisions that lead to greater happiness and fulfillment.

Law of Attraction
In order to show that thoughts are energy, we will play with energy
for a little while. Hold your left hand out as if you are going to do a
karate chop. Using your left index finger and without touching the
right palm of your hand, pretend you are drawing a circle on your
right palm. Pay attention to how your left palm feels. Hopefully you
can feel the energy on the palm of your hand as you draw a circle.

Now imagine green colored balls going through your body, in through your feet
BALLS OF and going through all areas of your body, up your legs, through the stomach,
and out through your head. Try using different colors of the rainbow and see if
LIGHT it feels different. This exercise demonstrates that thought has energy as you
focus on the ball of light traveling through your body. The energy around your
body, or aura is measurable. See Dr. Valerie Hunt's website for more details.
THE
Happiness attracts more happiness. Happiness comes from within. You can
imagine yellow smiling faces entering your body through your feet moving up

your leg. These smiley faces, are playing the drums, skipping rope, doing
jumping jacks, playing the guitar, and enjoying life. Some smiling faces are

tapping their feet, clapping their hands, and having a party and dancing.
THE Here is an exercise that will hopefully help you feel and attract love. Instead of
smiling faces going through your body, imagine a bunch of hearts entering
V ALENTINE your body. Now assume that all of these hearts love you They are all going to
your heart, healing your heart if necessary, and making you feel good inside.
EXERCISE From your heart they go to all other parts of your body giving you hugs and
kisses if you want them to. This exercise may even mend a broken heart!
This exercise will help you to attract money to yourself. You might for example,
M ONEY ask the universe for $100,000 remembering that there is enough abundance in
the universe for everyone, especially when the law of attraction is applied. This
EXERCISE time you will imagine dollar bills entering your body, dancing all the way
through. If you try this exercise and it works, remember to be grateful. In fact,
think about as many things to be grateful for as you can.
M AN' S B EST If you like dogs, imagine a bunch of dogs running through body excited to see
you. They are licking you in places you want to be licked or not licking you if
FRIEND you don't want to be licked. The main point is that the dogs are excited to see
you. Imagine petting all those dogs if you wish.
Tell yourself that you feel 65% good or you can start at whatever percentage
F EELING GOOD
you like. Then go up 1 more percentage and tell yourself and the universe that
you feel 1 percent better. If not then try to think of something that makes you
M ETER
happier. Then when you are ready go up another percentage point and tell
yourself or the universe that you feel say 67% good.
RELAXATION For this exercise you can start at 50% and say 50% relaxed, 51% relaxed, 52%
relaxed, 53% relaxed. You may need to tense up some muscles and relax them so
M ETER you can notice the contrast and relax more easily. Also breathing from your
stomach may also help you to relax.

Clustering
Background: One of the easiest ways of contacting your Higher Self is a technique
called clustering. I learned this in a writing class as a method for overcoming
writer's block. The first time I applied this technique to my present life, my Higher
Self gave me an answer to a problem that I had been wrestling with on my own
without much success. After the clustering, the answer was revealed.
Goal: What happens in clustering is that your left brain (the logical, analytical part)
is temporarily out of control. This allows your right brain (the intuitive, creative
part) to take center stage. When it comes to contacting your Higher Self, your right
brain is less protective of you than the left brain is. If you are truly ready, it will
allow you to receive direct guidance and information from your Higher Self.
Preparation: All you need is a blank piece of paper, a pen or pencil, and a quiet
place and time to do this exercise.
1> Pick a word that is emotionally charged for you. The key is to pick a word that
relates to an issue that you are having in your life now.
If you cannot think of a word on your own, here are some you can choose from that
are bound to unearth some issues:
2> Place the word you have chosen in the center of the blank paper and draw a
circle around it. Get in a comfortable position, close your eyes, and take some deep
breaths. Ask the universe to send you the information on your current life that are
the root cause(s) of the issue you have selected above.
3> As quickly as you can, open your eyes and draw a line from the circle and write
the first word which comes to you next to it. If there is a second word related to the
first word, write the second word down and draw a line connecting the words. Then
connect a third word to the second word in the same way.
4> When you come to the edge of the page or run out of related words, stop with
that word. Go back to the circle and begin with another word. Select the next word
and connect it quickly.
5> Repeat the process until the page is filled or until you have run out of word
associations. For this to work you must do this as fast as you can. Do NOT think
about it, just let the words flow freely.
Example: The word I choose was "frustrate". In 30 seconds, the following came:
116
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
let go - illusion - fear ------- FRUSTRATED - move on - true path - trust process
true security - God - self --- FRUSTRATED - true path - joy - energy - happiness
settle debts - reduce pride - FRUSTRATED - betrayed/betrayer - illusion - fear
done - lessons - work karma - FRUSTRATED - aware - empathy - compassion
move on - let go - false fear - FRUSTRATED - illusion - security - move on
Once the above clustering was completed, I took a moment to review the cluster in
its' entirety. It took a few minutes but the pattern of the clustering revealed a new
perspective on my frustration in my "third dimensional (3D) reality" job. Below is
the solution to the clustering puzzle that is shown above.

1. Take some deep, refreshing breaths until you are totally comfortable
and relaxed in whatever position you have chosen (it should take you
no more than 3 minutes to get comfortable).
2. Close your eyes and envision a large mirror in the screen of your
mind. Imagine yourself walking toward the "Mirror of Total Interior
Knowledge". You are completely alone: all you see is yourself and the
magic mirror.
3. Look into the mirror and see yourself the way you would like to be.
This is the you inside yourself who has already attained your ideal
situation.
5. When you have received your answers, open your eyes and quickly
jot them down upon a piece of paper. You do not have to record the
dialog word for word - just capture the key ideas on a single sheet of
paper. Do NOT write for more than 5 minutes - keep it simple and
focused on the key issues.

Resolving these emotions is what moves you past the "stuck" point.
Writing letters of transformation is one technique to help you resolve
"stuck" emotions so that you can begin to move forward in your life.
1> Get into a comfortable position, close your eyes, and take some deep
breaths (it should take you no more than 3 minutes to get
comfortable).
129
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
2> Get clear on what it is you wish to write about the person. The
purpose is to get down on paper everything you need to say to bring
transformation to your relationship with that particular person (it
will change one way or the other).
3> The letter can be in any form that can move you from the point of
stuckness (usually anger and blame) to a place of movement (usually
love and forgiveness).
If you feel love does not lie at the end of this process, then take the
energetically healthy step of deciding to end the relationship once and
for all (see "Letters of Indignation"). If you are "stuck" for something to
write, below is an outline that you can use to create this letter of
transformation and an example of one from "real life".
4> Write until there is nothing more you have to say. To cover
anything you might have forgotten to say, put the words "and
Anything Else I Forgot to Say" at the bottom of the page. The point
is to put the past down so you can put it behind you.
6> Close your eyes. Imagine yourself sitting in a chair facing the
person you have just sent this transformational energy. Tell them: "I
need things between us to change so that we can move forward
together." If there is anything else that you want to say to them, now
is your chance. When you are finished, say "Things must change
between us - now!" Know that CHANGE will come.
Example:
130
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
"I really did not like it when I was very sick and you did nothing to
help me. It made me feel hurt that you were angry that I got sick,
even though it was not my fault and there was nothing I could have
done to prevent my illness.
131
My First 30 Days Low Fat Raw
This 'pushed all my buttons' and raised some deeply painful childhood
issues. I am sorry that I overreacted to it as I did. I am sorry that I
did not call you when I promised. I am sorry that this caused us to
drift apart. I forgive you now for ignoring my illness. I understand
that your life has not prepared you for reacting well to sickness. I
understand that is why you behaved the way you did.
For the sake of all the good times we had together, I would like us to be
friendly again... but you must understand that your behavior towards
me while ill must change. I need sympathy and understanding not
anger. If you can do this for me, I know we can still be friends. If not,
thank you for all you have shared with me.
Know that wherever you travel on your life's path, I always will wish
you well and hope you find all the joy you desire.

This morning I woke up feeling tired, cranky and just not myself at
all. I proceeded to use my daily morning writing practice to rant
about all the noises which surrounded my head instead of the peace
my heart was aiming towards valiantly.
I frowned listening to the slap of the shoe laces against the morning
walker's carefully chosen Nike's.
Yes, it had become ridiculous. In the "whining zone itself" the tiniest
sound like can become cacophonous.
To top it off, my right upper back and shoulder area have had this
knot of tension for the past week or so. It will not leave me alone. It
was definitely noticeable as I stood and headed back inside to rally my
troops, rightly known as young people who depend on me for
sustenance, guidance and plentiful hugs.

I opened my eyes blissfully just in time to see a little two year old boy's
face with a completely free and joyous expression as he launched
himself hurdling onto his centered, peaceful Mommy.. Otherwise
known as me.
I laughed and shrieked and hugged him tightly when he landed with
his heart right on top of mine. "Yes, Sammy..we ARE free to be
joyous."
Both the toddler little child in my arms and the forty one year old one
that flows through my veins.
I am free to be whole
I am free to be rich
I am free to be exceptional
I am free to be an artist

What intentional act will you create to bring that into being?
Imagine all of these which you have listed here. Allow your mind to

do that which brings them heartfully to fruition.

I can't remember the movie, I can't remember the actress, I can't remember
what she said and I do remember what she did.
She sprayed perfume into the air and then stepped through the falling-like-
rain perfume as her unique way of applying the scent to her skin.
She sprayed the air and stepped into the sprayed air.
Interesting, isn't it, that nothing else from the movie has stuck with me
except that single, magical image?
The woman in the movie wanted to smell good so she sprayed the air in front
of her body with scent and then stepped into the scent and allowed it to float
naturally onto her skin, gently, smoothly and potently.
You can try this technique with anything you desire. Yes, you read me right.
Here is what I mean.
If you want to write an article, simply float a daily writing practice into
your schedule. Have the tools ready and waiting for you so that when you
begin your day, the natural, gentle, potent stirrings will be for you to meet
the page as you greet the day.
If you want to attract more positive people into your life, send out more
smiles, more confidence, more acknowledgment and gratitude for those
positive people you already know and mirror to those who you are
attracting exactly what you want. Those who resonate will simply, easily
and naturally glide into place all around you.
Just like whoever the actress was in whatever the movie was, spray the air
and step in. Allow the magic to stick.
