How Different Are You Willing to Be?

Spending time in this world can seem almost impossible to have any choice
other than fitting in and being like everybody else.
It even seems like the thing to strive for … being normal and being sane are
things we should be according to many others. Funny thing is … how insane
does it drive you trying to be sane?
Parents often think that it is their job to make their children be a normal
citizen. They think it makes them a good parent to have children that “fit in”
with society. How much of the idea have you bought that your job is to be
like everybody else?

Is it really?
How much energy does it require for you to make sure you are seen as
normal and like everybody else?
Did you decide that if you want to be liked, you have no choice but to be like
others?

How much of you, your capacities and your creativity do you have to cut off
so that you don’t appear too different?

Have you ever worried about being too much, too loud, too crazy? Have
people told you that you are a lot to handle and that you should hold yourself
back? Have you been seen as a problem to others? Good!!!

What!!??
YES! What if being too much and not fitting in is where you get to have the
space and the freedom to be you?

What if this is exactly where you get to have access to your difference? What
if that is exactly where you find what is true for you, what you are good at
and how you would like to create your life?

“Brilliance begins, where normality ends!”

How many lies have you bought about you and who and what you are?
If you judge you, you try to be normal and like everybody else. It does not
give you the freedom to be you.
List some judgments about you – what have you decided about who and
what you are:

Turn those judgments 180 degrees …

What is right about your wrongness?

How could you turn that very wrongness into a strongness?

Here are some examples:

• Being seen as irritating – is the willingness to be perseverant and

never give up.

• Being loud – is the willingness to be the voice that is heard in the

world.

• Being shy – is the ability to pull in people’s attention.

• Being seen as stupid – is easily getting away with making mistakes

and without other’s expectations.

How can you use these abilities in your life?

What areas of your life can you apply these abilities?

What would that change?

Being that different might trigger judgments. Are you willing to be judged?

What if judgments were badges of honor and compliments to your being?

TOOLS TO PLAY WITH:

• Lower your barriers and receive the judgments.

• Let judgements go through you.

• Don’t hold on to them.

• Don’t think about them.

• Don’t resist.

• Don’t agree.

• Don’t align.

• Sense the energy of the judgments and allow them to expand your
life.

Everything you are willing to receive expands your life.

Everything you are refusing to receive contracts your life.

Would you inspire others to be what they have decided they could never be
- if you give yourself permission to be what you thought you should not be?
Giving yourself permission to be what you have decided you should not be,
will give you SO much freedom and relaxation.

Changing your life comes from relaxation and NOT from judgment.
How much lack of relaxation are you choosing, to make sure your life is not
too easy?

Dramatic or Pragmatic?

Dramatic means worrying about problems, why you have the problems you
have and trying to find a solution.

If you are looking for a solution – you have already decided that you have a
problem.

Pragmatic means doing what works – ALWAYS! It gives you the ease that
you are not supposed to have.
Questions:

• What have I decided is the problem?

• What points of view do I have that are creating and holding this
problem in place?

TOOLS TO PLAY WITH:

Interesting point of view I have this point of view.

Repeat this … until you laugh … or at least smile!

Are you willing to be so different that you no longer have any problems – and
you can turn every problem into a possibility? Want to know how you do that?

• Try these four questions:

• What is this?
• What do I do with this?
• Can I change this?
• If yes - how can I change this?

It is normal to have a problem in this reality. How often do people have

conversations about possibilities rather than talk about their problems?

Would you be willing to be the only one who does not have a problem?
Yep! That would make you defiantly different - the ones desiring what you
have will seek you. You will be their inspiration! You will be the leader the
world requires! Are you willing to be that? Thank You!

Your name does not have to be Einstein to change the world! It is your choice
to unwrap the gift you are and be the shine that changes the world!
Your childhood does not determine who you are. It is your choice to be the
greatness you are and choose in every moment what works for you and
creates your future! Start now!

What choice can you make right now?

What if you don’t have to think about what that choice could be? What if it
could be as easy as being happy – just for ten seconds?

Thank you for Being the Difference You Bring to Our World!

Time to create a world that works for us!

Time to create a world that is fun to live in!

All it takes are some different choices.

The Access Clearing Statement

The clearing statement we use in Access Consciousness® is:

Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 9, shorts, boys, POVADs
and beyonds™.

Right and wrong, good and bad

Is shorthand for:

What's good, perfect and correct about this?

What's wrong, terrible, bad and awful about this?

What's right and wrong, good and bad?

POD

Is the point of destruction immediately following whatever you decided. It's

like pulling the bottom card out of the house of cards. The whole thing falls
down.

POC
Is the point of creation of the thoughts, feelings and emotions immediately
preceding whatever you decided.

All 9

Stands for nine layers of crap that were taken out. You know that somewhere
in those nine layers, there's got to be a pony because you couldn't put that
much crap in one place without having a pony in there. It's crap that you're
generating yourself, which is the bad parts.

Shorts
Is the short version of: what's meaningful about this? What's meaningless
about this? What's the punishment for this? What's the reward for this?

Boys
Stands for nucleated spheres. Have you ever been told you have to peel
the layers of the onion to get to the core of an issue? Well, this is it -
except it’s not an onion. It’s an energetic structure that looks like one.

These are pre-verbal. Have you ever seen one of those kids bubble pipes?
Blow here and you create a mass of bubbles. As you pop one, it fills back in.
Basically, these have to do with those areas of our life where we’ve tried to
change something continuously with no effect. This is what keeps something
repeating ad infinitum …

POVADs
All the points of view you are avoiding and defending that keep this in
existence.

Beyonds
Our feelings or sensations when you receive or hear something that stops
your breathing or stops your willingness to look at possibilities. It's like when
your business is in the red, and you get another final notice, and you say
‘Argh!’ or feel panicked. You weren't even expecting that right now.

Sometimes we just say, “POD and POC it.”
