Welcome to my blog! My name is Mary Ellen Pierce and I want to invite you to Get Jazzed & Joyful about who you are, every day in every way! I believe that no matter what you do in life, it is important to believe in yourself and your goals and to realize it's okay to enjoy the journey and have fun along the way!
Along my journey I have discovered my inner artist to help me create expressions of myself using collage, altered art, mixed media and scrapbook techniques. I have enlisted the aid of my inner cheerleader to keep me motivated to be the Best ME that I can be!
And I want to inspire others to realize that when you get Jazzed and Joyful about being You, then what you do will turn into success, prosperity and happiness!

Whose Business are you in?

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
There are only 3 kinds of business you can be in - your business, someone else's business or the Universe's business. Many times we find ourselves caught up in someone else's business. Getting involved in what is going on, paying attention and focusing on our friends', family or co-workers business.
When this happens you do 2 things:
-you are ignoring your own business
-you are interfering with the Universal plans for someone else.
So today, be aware of whose business you are getting involved in. And Remember that when you get involved in someone else's business it's like you having your own store front and instead of taking care of your own business, your own customers, your own inventory, you leave your store and go into someone else's and get involved with their customers, the way they do business, paying attention to their inventory.
How do you know what is going on inside your own store? Who is taking care of your customers? Who is watching your inventory? AND how would not taking charge of your own business and staying put in someone else's store help YOUR prosperity, abundance and quality of life?
Doing this would not make good sound business sense or practice. If this routine kept up it would most likely cause your store to go OUT of business, your unhappy customers to go elsewhere, your inventory to become prey to opportunists AND you would get the reputation for being more concerned about running someone else's business than your own.
What kind of example would that be?
Affirm:
      Today I keep my actions and my efforts focused on my own business!
Have a Great Self Business Thursday!

There is more than Enough

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

There is more than enough in the Universe for everyone.
Lack is only a state of mind, a belief system that was handed down to us from our childhoods.
Lack reflects a state of mind that says you are not worthy or deserving of having the best of everything- that you have to "earn" it -
whatever "it" is.

Today change your state of mind by changing that belief system. Start using the Law of Repetition that states that anything we repeatedly do, think or say on a regular, continuous basis becomes habit.

So Affirm and Repeat after me:
I am Worthy and Deserving of Health, Wealth and Well Being and there is more than enough in the Universe to go around.

Make this new thought a habit and watch your life expand abundantly in all areas!

You deserve the Best of Everything!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

The Creator, the Source of All, wants the absolute best of everything for each of us. If we do not have the best of everything in all areas of our lives our ego tells us it must be because we do not deserve it or are not worthy. And many times we buy it because our history - our story- seems to support that.
What if we considered for a just a moment that perhaps what is really happening is that the Universe has been trying to send us the best of everything all along and we have been blocking it from coming into our lives because the story we tell ourselves is that we are not worthy.

Become like the Scientist - conduct your own experiment. Write a new story for yourself.
Your new story is that you are wonderful, worthy and deserving of all the best that the Universe has to offer. Further, that you are OPEN and WILLING to RECEIVE all the best that is on its' way to you.
Whenever the ego tries to tell you the old story line, emphatically proclaim your new storyline:
"I am Wonderful and Worthy and I Deserve to have the Best of Everything!"

The only way to rewrite your old history is to create and live today a bold new story that in a week from now, month from now, a year from now will become a positive history to reflect on. The ego won't like it but I guarantee you will love it!

Affirm:
     I Allow myself to accept the Best of Everything!

Don't wait for if only...

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Have you ever thought to yourself or said to someone "IF only I .... then I would be happy."
You know: If only I had more money, if only I lost some weight, if only I had more time, if only I had a better job, if only, if only, if only.... THEN I would be happier, more content, fulfilled, be able to do what I really want.
Or how how about, I will be happy when .... I get this."
Or I will feel better about ... when this happens.

Did you ever think about what you are really saying?
I will be happy when ... translates into "I cannot be happy until ...."
I will feel better about ... translates into "I don't feel good about .... and won't until this happens."
If only I .... then I will be happy, translates into I cannot be happy until this happens, or I get this.

What you are doing is putting yourself and your happiness on hold UNTIL ...
What you are doing is programming your mind and your feelings into believing that you CANNOT Feel good or be Happy right now, in the Current circumstances UNTIL .....

Well guess what? The Universe will give you more of what you are really asking for, more of what you are really putting out there to come back to you.
Next time STOP! and ask yourself "What am I really saying?"

Don't postpone your joy and happiness UNTIL ....
Choose to be happy, and feel good about yourself right now in this moment so you can draw more of that back to you.

Affirm:
     I feel good and I am already on my way to happiness!

Have a Happiness is on it's way to you Wednesday!

Let the Universe Know you're ready.

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
The Creator, the Source of All, wants the absolute best of everything for each of us. If we do not have the best of everything in all areas of our lives our ego (Edging Good Out) tells us it must be because we do not deserve it or are not worthy. And many times we buy it because our history-our story seems to support that.

What if we considered for just a moment that perhaps what is really happening is that the Universe has been trying to send us the best of everything all along and we have been blocking it from coming into our lives because the story we tell ourselves is that we are not worthy.
Become like the scientist- conduct your own experiment. Write a new story for yourself.

Your new story is that you are wonderful, worthy and deserving of all the best that the Universe has to offer. Further, that you are OPEN and WILLING to RECEIVE all the best that is already on it's way to you.
Whenever the ego tries to tell you the old story emphatically proclaim your new storyline:
"I am Worthy and Deserving of the best of everything!"
The only way to rewrite your old history is to create and live today a bold new story that in a week from now, month from now, a year from now will become a positve history to reflect on. The ego won't like it - but I guarantee you will love it!

Affirm:
     I Allow myself to Receive the best of everything!

Have a New Story Monday!

Thoughts of Power & Intention

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Thoughts are statements of power and intention that get sent out to the Universe to match up with like powered intentions. Once matched up they are multiplied and drawn back to you.

I feel good and I am going to have a great day!
OR
I feel crappy and today is going to be a loooooong day!

Which one would you want multiplied and drawn back to you?

Affirm:
     Today I am Positive and Powerful and my day reflects that!

Have a Thoughts of Power Tuesday!

Want more New? Get rid of the Old!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Are you wanting some new things to come into your life? More happiness? More money? More vibrant health? More love? More opportunities? More peace and serenity? More material things? More?

Well did you know that it is unlikely the Universe will send you more of these if you don't take care of what you already have or if you don't make room for the new.
Are you wanting more happiness and love but haven't let go of old resentments and hurts?
Are you wanting more money but you are not a good financial steward of what you do have?
Are you wanting more vibrant health but don't take time to exercise or pay attention to what you eat?
Are you wanting more opportunities but focus on how much you have to do and how little time to do it in and so miss out on opportunities that already exist because you didn't take the time to investigate or pursue?
Are you wanting more peace and serenity but don't take the time to meditate or to pause from your hectic schedule to recharge yourself?
Are you wanting more material things but your garage, car, closets, desk, office and rooms are full of "stuff" that you are holding onto or just haven't gotten rid of yet?
So ask yourself this: Are you giving a conflicting message when asking for more NEW when you are surrounded and stuffed full of the OLD?

Is it really surprising that the NEW isn't here yet because it can't fit into your mind, your thoughts, your car, your home, your spirit, your bank account, your life because there is so much OLD stuff there?
If you want more NEW get rid of the OLD! Take action steps today and continue on an action plan that will clear the clutter and cobwebs from your mind and your life by LETTING GO of the OLD.
Send a consistent message to the Universe about what you REALLY want and back it up by showing the Universe that you have made room for it.

Affirm:
    Today I am clearing out and Letting Go of the Old to make room for the NEW!

Have a NEW Friday and Weekend!

Acceptance of what is

Well I am finally back up and running, fully and completely! Sometimes the Universe decides to slow you down and change your focus to something else - even if you don't really want to. I have been having computer problems for two weeks now and instead of taking the Universal hint I kept trying to figure it out and fix it myself! After all I am pretty smart, determined - and convinced that I would persevere! However what happened was that I began to spend most of my time and energy getting my computer Internet connection to work properly and putting tasks that needed to done on the back burner. Things piled up and I was still determined I could fix it AND finish all my tasks on schedule.

And that's when the Universe stepped in to assist me. It became obvious that I needed tech support to help me and when I called to make an appointment I was told that it would be four days before the Tech could come out! Four days! No way! I have a couple of vendor shows to do, I have to have access to my email so I can print out things I need, so I can communicate with the world! Surely there must be a sooner appointment? But no there was not. I took the appointment and asked if I figured it out before then could I just cancel without charge (see I was still planning on doing it myself).

Then as I realized all the things I needed to get done, printed, sorted, painted, created, organized, boxed up, etc. etc. reality came into my awareness. A choice had to be made: try to fix the computer on my own OR continue getting ready for my events and working on finishing important tasks.
Thankfully I saw the wisdom of accepting reality for what it was. And I changed my attitude and perspective from Why is this happening to me now?! to OK Universe I get it. Apparently I am not meant to use my computer online, access my email and some of my files and spend time trying to do it all myself. Apparently I am meant to finish what I can and keep my focus on how to make my upcoming events the best Success they can be with MY FULL awareness on that and let the computer tech take care of the rest later on.

And that's what I did. And it all worked out even better that I thought it would. Even better than if I had tried to do it all myself.

Sometimes when I am all caught up in myself, making myself the center of the Universe, the Universe intervenes to make it clear that there is a Power greater than me at work. It provides a much needed Attitude Adjustment and lets me know that I do NOT have all the answers. And that sometimes the best course of action is to just Accept what is, do the best you can and allow help to come when it is supposed to.
