Have You Felt Disappointment?

Have you ever allowed yourself to feel disappointed? I mean really FEEL it? Have you ever gotten stuck in disappointment? Have you read all the self-help books; used all the powerful “I AM” affirmations; taken all the workshops, classes and webinars until you were confused and/or worn out; and the whole while continue to put a smile on your face, pushing forward towards that line of satisfaction?

Do you ever have one of “those” moments? You know, the moment Oprah refers to as “Ah-Ha”.

Taming our Inner Critic is the key to creating an extraordinary life of Infinite Abundance, Love and Joy to be shared. Taming this rascal can prove to be challenging and elusive because it's a masterful trickster you've developed over the years. Yes, you read that correctly - you've developed this Inner Critic.
