|  I picked up the nick name positive patty around Coventry several years ago. Thankfully it replaced the previous, which was Prozac Patty. The connotations of latter worried me a bit. I don’t mind being a Pollyanna but chemically induced nirvana is not my style, but I digress. As a positively poised person who specializes in helping people create their own reality I got really jazzed when we resurrected an old favorite for our employee enrichment project.
My dog-eared, yellowing copy of The 7 Habits of Effective people lay open to a page that defined and outlined the meaning of Stephen Covey’s guiding principles for his seven habits. As I read through them I made a connection between adopting positive principles and creating the life you love. This was foundational work for the law of attraction, Coventry magic and any spell work authored by the many talented pagans’ out there. Here’s a quote from the book that really grabbed me by Cecil B. deMille “It’s impossible for us to break the law. We can only break ourselves against the law.” What I think Cecil is telling us is that if we go against the principles of civilized society, such as fairness, honesty and human dignity we will experience sadness, poverty and exclusion because no one in their right mind would feel safe with us. Principles are natural laws and they are uncompromising and unyielding. This is why Cecil said that you cannot break the law. These laws control the consequences of our choices. We will break ourselves long before the law comes even close to giving way.

|  The curse and the magic of mirrors is
that they are distorted by your own expectations of what you will find there
when you peek within them. Mirrors can intrigue
you, especially when they are in unexpected places (and you get to peek at what
you look like when you are talking) or they can trap you when you are feeling a
bit unfortunate (like when you first step out of the shower and look like a
drowned rat).
There is so much emotion released when
one looks into a mirror that it gets imbedded in the class and silver, creating
the perfect energy collector. (I wonder
if this is where the idea for solar panels comes from.) If
you are not the little blond curly headed girl on you tube practicing her
affirmations of “I can to anything, I am great!” while standing on the bathroom
sink (Jessica’s Daily Affirmations) then
the mirrors that you look into on a daily basis may have a different energy in
them. They may have energy like, “Good
Lord – you again?” or “Great, another bad hair day” or you may be trying
a few positive affirmations of your own like “Well, at least you aren’t hideous.” Your full length mirror may be giving you
even more trouble (especially if you are trying to get in shape) and it may have
that repeating energy of how terrible you think you look in your clothes.
