Stop Holding Your Breath

Ula Einstein — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:16:05 +0000

The other day Big Bird asked: Have you stopped to consider that the Source of the Universe (aka God) has infinitely more imagination that you do…so that when we have an idea, and begin to act on it: we don’t have to be holding our breath ? (which for starters, doesn’t help, and even if you try, Byron Katie says, you can’t do it. It’s really impossible.) My resolve this year is letting gooooooooooo ~~ Let Go, Let God. You’re taking actions? You’re making a move on what you know to do? So, relax; in the face of the many challenges we all face, stop holding your breath. Reminds me of one of my favorite Einstein quotes: Imagination is More Important than knowledge.

Stop Holding Your Breath and TRUST.......you can do it.

Stepping Out of the Comfort Zone

Ula Einstein — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:09:01 +0000

NOW WE’RE NOT SAYING comforts in life aren’t important (because we know they are). This here is referring to finding yourself in inertia ~that state when you really want to be trying something new, and can’t seem to. You’ll hear yourself saying “it’s out of my comfort zone”. You’re feeling all shy and nervous. AND WE’RE HERE TO SAY: In order to be creative and move, use your ‘magination and step forward ~~ and know Big Bird is watching and helping!

The video offers a partial glimpse and talk about my expanded art practice…

Ula Einstein, Sept. 2011

I met the vibrant Italian women ( producer, and photographer) in NYC, from labiennale tv in 2010 where they first saw my work at an exhibition in NYC.
Returning to NYC in 2011, they connected to feature my work in their documentation about culture in NYC. (Below I’ve included a few of the full images where often only details were shown).

Questions to Ask When Deciding A Coach / Mentor ?

Ula Einstein — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:55:06 +0000

Don't Block The Light aka Listen from the Inside/Out....trust our instincts!

EXPRESS IT FORWARD

Here are Questions to ask yourself when making the important decision regarding the coach/mentor to work with… to move you forward! Of course, word of mouth is helpful.

VIBRATIONAL MATCH: Do you have a gut feeling that the person is a good fit? In our culture of speed- we can sometimes bypass and neglect our instincts ….listen to your body when on an initial phone consultation. If the hair on my arm rises, it’s telling me to question this.

INSPIRATION: The desire to work with this mentor comes from – fear or inspiration? Are you considering working with this mentor or coach because their marketing presence has created the shakes in you as to what will happen if you don’t work with them? OR are you contemplating it because you feel inspired about that person being able to help foster and ENCOURAGE YOUR CREATIVITY!?

ADMIRATION: Do you see something in them or their art/creativity/business something that you admire or want to have? Have they achieved something that you want to achieve? If so, then it is likely they can help guide you there.

The PATH: Where are they on the journey of developing their creativity/art/business? A few steps ahead of you, or many steps ahead of you? Of course, this is relative. I know I like to work with people who are more advanced than I, because I am there for “mentoring” and at the same time feel would also remember what it was like to be where I am now. Because I have much experience in my own work, and my own new projects – I know what it is to be beginning and/in advanced stages as well.

Scissors, and glue stick and Play is all that’s required!

Friends: The Ones Who Believe in You

Ula Einstein — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 21:52:00 +0000

The poet and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is in the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else BELIEVES in him.”

Find and Be with people who believe in you – who go beyond nodding about your ideas. Whether in light and/or shadow, connect with those who encourage you to take steps to follow through on your ideas!

BIG asks "what's holding us back?" Sometimes it's a false belief, sometimes it's lack of encouragement. Step out, and the universe steps in to meet us. Ula Einstein 2012
