I found this on a site called Niurka, and felt compelled to share it.
Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” You have the power within you to create the life you want to live. You have the power to shape the world around you just by who you are being, and how you are communicating. The law of attraction, one of the fundamental aspects to living a life by design, explains that everything that is created in the outside world is the result of what takes place internally. Being the change you wish to see in the world starts with taking full responsibility for everything that is happening in your life.
The first Law of Supreme Influence states, “I create my reality.” Creating your life by design means taking full ownership and total personal accountability for where you are right now. By accepting that you are fully “at cause” for your life, you access the wisdom to recognize how your moment-to-moment thoughts, words, and actions create the results you experience.
Each of us is the author and architect of the results we experience. Every thought we have, word we speak (whether to ourselves or out loud), and action we take is like planting a seed; a seed that will germinate and grow when the appropriate conditions are present. Like farmers carefully planting the next harvest, we reap the effects of having sown the seeds of past thoughts and behaviors. There are no idle thoughts! Everything we see, and everything we experience has its origin and cause in the realm of thought. Understanding this phenomenon is the beginning of true wisdom.
In life, you either get results or you give reasons, there is no in between. When you get a result and own it, whether you perceive it to be desirable or not, you become empowered through the wisdom that is found in recognizing how your thoughts, words, and actions create the results you receive. Owning your results is living “at cause”, giving reasons only initiates the opportunity to create similar results in the future.
Any time someone gives a reason, even when it seems to be real and true, it leads to a loss of personal power. Giving reasons assumes what is happening outside of you is more powerful than your ability to transform it. And that is not true! You have the power to shift your world. It begins with you!
Here are a few red flags that will illuminate anytime you’ve momentarily forgotten your creative power. Anytime you catch yourself blaming, minimizing, denying, or justifying – let it serve as a signal to bring your awareness to the present moment and come back to “cause.” As soon as you catch yourself, you can make a new choice. This gives you freedom! Being at cause for what occurs in your life gives you power, supporting you on your journey to be the change you wish to see in the world.

Thank you for sharing this, it is just what I needed to hear, a wonderful reminder. The energies hitting earth lately have been really intense and I find myself saying things I do not really mean, being less than nice when I really want to react with love and compassion. I needed this reminder so that I can shape my reality and not be a victim to the intense negativity that is roaring all around us at this time. I think this reminder is so necessary especially now. If I want to be treated with love and respect I must do the same and create the type of life and world I desire it to be. I may not be able to change other's actions and reactions, but I can do my part by being true to what I wish to be and acting like the qualities that I wish other's would have. Thank you for sharing this, it fell on grateful ears by me for sure.
