Being a control freak is a sign of a vulnerable self-esteem. The better you feel about yourself the less you need to control everything around you.
Trying to stay in control of everything all of the time is exhausting. Today, why not save your energy and boost your self-esteem by just letting go? Things might not turn out perfectly, but they will still be good enou...

Raymen Beach Resort in Guimaras
Do you love to travel? Here's one of my unforgettable travel experiences, and it's all about our trip to Guimaras, Philippines.
A decade ago, we visited Guimaras via Iloilo City. It was just a short trip, but we're able to have a side trip to the island. It was our first time to visit the place and we just followed the tips shared by seasoned travelers to go there.
We chose Raymen Beach Resort for the trip. It is located at Alubihod,...
Avoid Negativity
Be mindful of the company you keep. Don’t let negative people cloud your vision.
Think about the people you will be spending time with today. In an ideal world you would avoid anyone who is likely to be negative.
Even if that’s not possible, decide that today is going to be a good day and don’t let anything anyone else says or does have an impact on your mo...
Wednesday
The Law of Flexibility.
This law involves a pragmatic acceptance of the present moment. We accept ourselves, others and current circumstances rather than a rigid resistance of the moment. It requires an alert and expansive state of awareness, and embracing and making constructive use of the moment. Stumbling blocks become stepping stones and problems become opportunities. Everything serves our highest good if we make good use of it. The serenity prayer used by Alcoholics Anonymous and other twelve step programs reflects this law.
"God grant me the serenity to accept...

The Law of Good Will
Knowledge of this law will help those who have feelings of futility when thinking about the course of world events. By viewing life in terms of energy, we understand that our higher self coupled with our thought/mind action creates, and our actions/energy solidifies this thought into matter or results. In an energy relationship there is always a positive, creating side and a negative, receiving side of that creative relation. This is simply how the world works. The will-to-good is the positive, creative impetus, which, when received, makes the...
Monday
The Law of Gender
This law embodies the Truth that gender is manifested in everything - the masculine and feminine law is ever at work on all planes of causation. Gender manifests on all three planes of causation which are the great spiritual plane, the great mental plane, and the great physical plane. The law is always the same on all planes, but on the higher planes, it takes higher forms of manifestation. This law works in the direction of generation, regeneration, and creation. All life forms contain the two elements of gender - masculine and feminine. On the...
Sunday
The Law of Faith
The Law of Faith is founded upon the recognition that we know more than we have read, heard, or studied. We Know more because we Are a part of the ALL. We have a direct link to universal wisdom. We only have to look within, listen, discern, then trust. We need to develop more trust in our own deepest intuition and wisdom as the final arbiter and source of our decisio...

Don’t Doubt Yourself
When you believe in yourself it is easier not to take criticism, knock-backs and disappointments personally.
Unless you have asked for someone else’s opinion, you don’t have to accept it. And even if you did ask for it, it’s up to you to decide whether or not you want to take the advice on board.
If someone gives you feedback or criticism today that you don’t want or need, thank them politely and then have the confidence to file their advice – in the b...
Feel Abundant
Focusing on scarcity will only create more of the same.
Don’t waste time focusing on the things you don’t have; it will only make you miserable. Instead of spending your time and energy thinking about what is missing, make the decision today to relax and enjoy the knowledge that while your life might not be perfect, it’s already pretty go...
Friday
Be Brave
Unless you have the courage to say ‘no’ to the things you don’t want, it’s hard to say ‘yes’ to the things that you do want.
If you find yourself being pulled in lots of different directions today, don’t make the mistake of saying ‘yes’ to everything in an attempt to keep everyone happy.
Instead, say ‘no’ to as much as possible, and save your time and energy for the things that you know will make you hap...
Thursday
Just Do It
Every time you say ‘but’ you are giving yourself a get-out clause.
Make your mind up. Do you want to succeed today or do you just want to try to succeed?
With the right amount of commitment and effort, you can get anything you want from life. But if all you are willing to do is try, you will have failed before you sta...
Wednesday
Don’t Let It Ruin Your Day
Most of the things that go wrong in life don’t have a lasting impact. Remind yourself that if it won’t matter in ten years time, it doesn't matter today.
When something goes wrong it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the disappointment or frustration you are experiencing.
Although it might feel like it will have a lasting impact, in reality it probably won’t.
If something goes wrong today, let the moment pass and don’t let it ruin your whole d...
Think it Through
Don’t sabotage your chance for happiness. Own up to the real choices you are making.
Start each day by thinking about how you would like it to unfold. Pre-empt the decisions you think you may be faced with and decide in advance what will be the best action for you to ta...
Tuesday
Don’t Give In to Self-Pity
Self-pity never leads to happiness. Remind yourself that the situation may not be ideal, but it’s rarely the worst that could ever happen.
If something doesn’t go your way today, don’t fall into the trap of saying, ‘Why me?’
Instead of giving in to self-pity, take a minute to think about how much worse things could really be.
Although this may seem negative at first, you will soon notice a boost of positive energy when you realise that things are never as bad as they could ...
Start with the End in Mind
The best way to get what you want from a situation is to have clarity about the outcome you want to achieve.
Before you get started today, take a moment to visualise how you would like the day to unfold. See yourself walking through every part of your day with comfort and ease.
Then open your eyes and get ready for the day you really want to have to beg...
Acknowledge Your Progress
Having a vision is great, but don’t be so focused on your next goal that you forget to enjoy your achievements.
Take a minute to think of things in your life that you have succeeded at or achieved, and give yourself a pat on the back for making these goals or dreams a reality.
Make time today to acknowledge all that you have already achieved no matter how long ago it w...
Monday
Don’t Make Promises You Can’t Keep
Be honest with yourself. You can’t be the best you can be unless you know who you really are.
If you want to be the best you can be today, be honest with yourself about both your strengths and your not-so-strong points.
Don’t make promises to yourself or others based on the person you wish you were – promises you have no real chance of keeping.
Own up to the person that you are and be the best version of that person you can ...
Be Patient
Be generous with your time and energy. The harder it is to give, the more the other person deserves it.
When you are trying to get a lot done it can be easy to become impatient with people who are not moving at the same pace as you.
While this might be acceptable in a work situation, it can undermine your relationships if you allow this approach to enter your home life. Make a point today of being patient with the people you lo...
Sunday
Walk Your Talk
It is only when your actions and words are aligned that you can achieve your true potential.
It’s easy to talk about what you want to do, be or have. It takes a lot more energy to take action.
Align your efforts with your intentions by making a commitment each day to do three things that will take you closer to your go...
The Law of Magnetism
This is the law which produces the unifying of a personality, and though it is an expression of lunar force, is of a higher order than the law of physical sex. The three aspects are the stage of high intellectuality, or of artistic attainment. Second is the stage of discipleship. Third is the stage of treading the Pa...
Saturday
The Law of Love
One of the seven laws of our solar system, under the three major laws. This is the law of the astral plane. It aims at the transmutation of the desire nature (love in the personality), and links it up with the greater magnetism of the love aspect on the buddhic plane (love in the Triad), and the Monads of Love. These three points mark periods of completion, and starting points for fresh endeavor in the life of the evolving Monad - from the personality to the Triad, from the Triad to the Monad, from the Monad back again to its Source. Love limits...
Friday
The Law of Miracles
This law is operable by any person who has realized that the essence of creation is light. A master is able to employ his/her divine knowledge of light phenomena to project instantly into perceptible manifestation the ubiquitous light atoms. The actual form of the projection (whatever it is, water into wine, medicine, a human body) is determined by the master's wish and by his/her powers of will and visualization. All events in our precisely adjusted universe are lawfully wrought and lawfully explicable. The so-called miraculous powers of a great...
Thursday
The Law of Meditation
This law is defined as a current of unified thought. It is a continuum of mental effort to assimilate the object of meditation, free from any other effort to assimilate other objects. The very least that may happen is the calming of self. When meditating on God, the most profound happening will bring a merging of the two, or enlightenment, as Buddhists call this occurren...
Wednesday
The Law of Mentalism
All is substantial reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know as empirical. The material universe, phenomena, matter, energy and all that is apparent to our material senses. It is spirit undefinable, unknowable, and thought of as a universal, infinite, living mind. This Law explains the true nature of energy, power and matter. The Universe is mental in nature, and mental transmutation is the art of changing the conditions of the universe, along the lines of matter, force, and mind. The atom of matter, the unit...
The Law of Magnetic Impulse
Also known as the first step towards marriage, or the law of the polar union. It results in an eventual union between the man or atom and the group which produces harmonious group relations. It is also known as the law of the polar union, and the symbol is two fiery balls united by a triangle of fire, thus picturing the triple interplay between all atomic structures. The ray energy is radiatory energy of the 2nd ray. Manifesting fact...
Tuesday
The Law of Manifestation
There are actions, sounds, techniques, mental energy and symbols which when understood, will enable one to manifest first energy (love, more joy, peace, etc.) into one's aura, then with practice and increased love held in the heart and emotional body physical objects. Thought is a force, even as electricity or gravitation. The human mind is a spark of the almighty consciousness of God. Whatever the powerful mind (holding a pure thought that which excludes any other thought) believes very intensely will instantly come to pa...
The Law of Inverse Proportions
One need not die if the pranic life force is not lost but increased, and drawn from the Cosmic source, conquering death and fate. The span of life is related to the rate of breathing. If the span of life is 120 years and the normal person breathed 21,600 times per day, that is 15 respirations per minute. If the rate of breathing is 18 per minute, however, the span of life will be about 96 years. If because of poor living habits and needless expenditure of energy the average rate of breathing is 30 per minute, the life span will be only 60 years....
Monday
The Law of Intuition
We can only get in touch with our own source of intuition and wisdom when we no
longer depend upon others' opinions for our sense of identity or worth. Do we value and
trust our own intuition, or do we value and transfer authority to the opinions of others
over our own inner feelings? Our intuition becomes more profound when we claim our
own sacred identi...
Sunday
The Law of Magnetic Control
One of the seven laws of our solar system, under the three major laws. This holds paramountly on the buddhic plane, and in the development of the control of this law lies hid the control of the personality by the Monad via the egoic body. A second description on a very physical/man level, is that every thought we have creates a match that comes back to us like a boomera...
Saturday
The Law of Mantras
Each mantra is a linkage to a certain aspect of the absolute, a certain manifestation of Divinity. In true mantra practice, one forgets the fact that the self is chanting, becomes the mantra itself, and attains the state where nothing but the mantra exists. One's being then connects with the higher being the mantra represents if it is the name of a Master Being, or connects with the ray of light emanating from God if it is a sound (aum or om, hu, etc.). The practice of chanting mantras is profoundly beneficial in raising the vibration of se...
The Law of the Lower Four
This law is also known as the law of etheric union, and its symbol is a male and female form, placed back to back. The male figure is holding above his head a shield or tray of silver, a great reflector, while the female form holds aloft an urn full of oil. Below this sign is another hieroglyphic which contains the secret of the astral plane, which has to be dominated by the mental. The ray energy is fiery energy of the 5th ray, the vitalizing fact...
Friday
The Law of Monadic Return
This law concerns the 'force of evolution' and is the sum total of three influences. The strength of vibrations from the seven stars of the Great Bear depend upon the closeness of the connection and the accuracy of the alignment between any particular Heavenly Man and His Prototype. Second is the Seven Sisters, or the Pleiades. Third is the sun Sirius. It is the appearance or the disappearance of these waves of life-force which sweeps into incarnation the divine pilgrims, and which brings about the cyclic manifestation of such great Lives as the...
Thursday
Express Your Gratitude
Find a way to express your gratitude for the wealth and abundance in your life.
At the end of each day, take a minute to express your gratitude for all that you have in your life.
It doesn’t matter if you give thanks to God, the universe or even just yourself. All that matters is that you remember to say thank y...
Never Give Up
Very few changes in life are achieved without effort and a commitment to making that effort.
When you first start working towards something you want in life, it can be quite challenging to stick to your goals or plan.
If you feel like giving up today, remind yourself that it might not always be easy, but in time it will come to you with ea...
Wednesday
Carry On
If someone tries to undermine your commitment, re-evaluate your commitment to them.
When you have a goal you want to achieve, most people you know will be happy for you. Some people, however, may feel unhappy, uncomfortable or even threatened by the changes you are planning to make.
If it feels like someone is trying to undermine you or your efforts today, ignore them. Remind yourself that their behavior is about them, not you, and carry on with your plans regardle...
Tuesday
Be Kind to Yourself
Remember to afford yourself the same generosity you give to others.
If something doesn't go your way today, don’t beat yourself up. Instead of chastising or criticising yourself, extend yourself the same kindness, encouragement and support that you would a good frie...
Monday
Know That You Are Good Enough
Don’t depend on others to fuel your self-belief. Develop your self-belief so that it becomes self-sustaining.
Don’t fall into the habit of looking to other people for validation or approval. Remind yourself each day that you are good enough and that you don’t need anyone else to tell you for it to be tr...
Sunday
The Law of Perfection
This law concerns the absolute perfection of the process of our unfolding. From a transcendental perspective, everyone and everything is unconditionally perfect. From a conventional viewpoint, perfection doesn't exist. Excellence is the best we can achieve, and achieving it takes time and practice. When we understand the larger picture, we understand our role and responsibility in helping the world we live in to become more loving, giving, kinder and gentler. When we live up to this responsibility, we expand into the perfection of our higher s...
The Law of Non-Attachment
Attachment to the self creates karma. Non-attachment to the self dissolves karma. This non-attachment to the self is made possible through the realization that the ultimate nature of the self is Empty. The self does not exist as a separate entity. A full conceptual understanding needs to occur, but mere conceptual understanding does not lead to liberation. Many methods have been devised to help human beings attain this realization, and usually fall into two categories. The first is 'non-attached behavior' and the other is called 'spiritual practice.'...
Saturday
The Law of Periodicity.
Training for the aspirant will by cyclic, and will have its ebb and flow, as all else in nature. Times of activity succeed times of pralaya, and periods of registered contact alternate with periods of apparent silence. If the student develops as desired, each pralayic period is succeeded by one of greater activity, and of more potent achievement. Rhythm, ebb and flow, and the measured beat of the pulsating life are ever the law of the universe. In learning to respond to the vibration of the high Places, this rhythmic periodicity must be borne in...
Friday
The Law of Abundance
By creating visualizations of abundance in our lives we draw this energy of success into our reality. Success or abundance does not only apply to money. There is success in communication, spirituality, relationships and so on. When creating the abundance of financial gain remember to be IN this world, but not OF this wor...
