The Laws of Attraction

Being a Life Coach, I have read a lot about the Laws of Attraction and apply many of the principles to my own personal and business life.

I always say to people "your thoughts create your reality". This is SO true. Looking back on my life, I know that whenever I was obsessively thinking about doing something and I envisioned it already happening ... IT DID!

- After one year in a job after getting my Master's Degree, I was dreaming about leaving that job and finding a new one. I could taste it. I could see it. It was happening!

- I finally reached a point in my life where I was tired of being overweight, the defining moment for me was after I moved from Boston to New Jersey and started to envision myself losing weight. I made the commitment and there was no turning back. There was such a strong desire and the pleasure associated with losing weight far outweighed any pain I associated with not doing this.

- I started to feel the itch to leave another job I was at after 9 years. I kept on thinking about a new fresh start, new creative challenges, a new work environment. I acted upon my thoughts and was soon at a new company.

- After a while being at this new job, I started to get that strong desire to start my own business. I started talking about it to everyone I knew. I drew a logo which I would use for my company and put it in my desk drawer in my office at work. Every time I opened that drawer up, it reminded me of my dream. A few years later, I started my own company, Lesetz Statistical Coaching.

My thoughts create my reality. The thoughts come first, NOT the action. Matter of fact my biggest learning with the Law of Attraction is that you don't have to work so hard to create what you really want in life!

I also realized that any negative or disempowering thoughts I have, strongly influences what comes into my life as well (or what doesn't come into my life that I want to be there!)

Where are your thoughts today? What do you think of all the time? What are you envisioning for your life?

Would love to hear from you!

America's #1 Motivational Speaker for people with MS!

Yes, that's what they are calling me! And you know the BEST part... I am LOVIN' LIFE! (hence the name of my business, Lovin' Life!). Motivating and inspiring people to live a rich and fulfilling life, despite ANY challenge that they face in life is what I absolutely love to do! My specialty niche is helping people diagnosed with MS. Why this niche? Because I was diagnosed with MS in 2002 and looked at it as a higher calling --- part of my life purpose to help this community to empower themselves to make choices in their lives that would improve their overall health and well-being! It is so rewarding to know that I am positively impacting people's lives while enjoying every minute of it AND getting paid for it as well! You just can't ask for more than that.

I am so passionate about changing people's lives -- specifically, I want people with MS (and other Chronic Health Conditions) to GET that they have a choice on how they respond to the diagnosis of a disease. Look at Lance Armstrong? Has the diagnosis of cancer stopped him from living? Has the diagnosis stopped him from going after his bigggest dreams? Heck NO! I think that it has only motivated him further and pushed him beyond any expectations he set for himself. He probably amazes himself sometimes! He amazes me! Lance Armstrong is an inspiration to me ... the lesson I learn from him is that "no life challenge" is too big that you can't get through it and come away stronger than ever!

Yes, I started this blog with the title of 'America's #1 Motivational Speaker for people with Multiple Sclerosis' -- but it is really turning into a motivating message to not let ANYTHING stop you from living your dreams and Lovin' Life! I know WHY I do what I do ... and that is BECAUSE it makes me feel good! This is part of my life purpose. And I am sure there is more and I am open to it.

Don't let ANYTHING stand in the way of living your life to the fullest!!! You only get one chance for the life you live. Do what you love, make choices that make you feel real good on the inside, move to that place you have been thinking about for years, take that trip that you have always wanted to take, start that business that you contemplate often... Take Action NOW! Because the present moment is all we really have. Tomorrow is not promised! And anyway, the fun lies in the journey! SO, start that Journey today so that you can say "I'm Lovin' Life!"

Warmest Regards,

Hurricane Katrina

I am sure there are thousands of blogs on the Hurricane Katrina Disaster... well, here is Maria Lesetz's take on this tragedy.

Something like this is a constant reminder to me that life is so precious and that there are so many things that we take for granted in our lives. Any day, something like this can happen in any one of our lives and then what? Will our priorities change in life? Will we look at things differently? Will this tragedy change your life (even if you were not directly impacted by it? I know that it has given me a huge perspective on what I prioritize in my life and what I am grateful for... my loved ones, my health, the roof over my head.

As far as the politics of this whole disaster... I don't understand why it took so long for help to be sent to these areas! Seeing those pictures on TV, I thought I was looking at another country --NOT the United States of America! It's a shame that it took that long for help to arrive. It didn't take that long in Florida. It didn't take that long in NY on 9/11. Yes, it begs the question... why did it take SO long for this tragedy? To me... people are people. We are all humans and deserve the same treatment and respect. Yes, reality is such that we are all not treated equal... that's where the tragedy lies.

Oprah Winfrey's special show really opened my eyes to what people were dealing with in the areas that were affected by Hurricane Katrina. It broke my heart and made me shake my head in disbelief.

And what does any of this have to do with my Lovin' Life Blog? A lot... we should all be grateful for what we have, be Lovin' Life Now in the moment and reach out to our fellow Americans that have been impacted by this tragedy and help them in some way, shape or form. When it comes down to it... there is a common thread between all of us (no matter what race, religion, financial status, etc.) -- we all have the same basic needs and desires in life. Let's help each other!

I do believe that it is possible for any of the people to come out stronger as a result of this tragedy. I heard one man say "Thank God I am alive, I don't know why this happened, but God has a plan and I will get through this and be fine." As I always say, Attitude is everything... it's the basis and the main ingredient determining how you are going to experience your life. For those of you that know me, I view the challenges in my life as "Just Another Bump In the Road" ... well, this tragedy is definitely bigger than just a "bump", however, even if it feels like the tallest mountain in the world.. it can be climbed and conquered!

Sending out my blessings and positive thoughts and wishes to all those affected by Hurricane Katrina!
