The Anne Report

Dear ,

We are near the end of 2020. No doubt, it was an intense year for me. Selling our home, packing for a move, getting rid of half of our belongings, and purchasing a new home was a lot. Then COVID hit. Though many of us are COVID weary now, the beginning of COVID was scary. We all stayed home, let our groceries stay in the garage for a day or so, and wore disposable gloves. Toilet paper became the new gold. Liquor companies regeared to manufacture hand sanitizer, and our women went to work making masks at home. It seemed a little like World War II. Add a move to our RV for six months and another move to our new home, plus a car crash and cancer, and that was my 2020.

Given all this, I am proud. I have reached, in part, my life goal – to be okay even during the most challenging times. Yes, there were moments of despair, but with the troops rallied around me, I was carried through by my friends’ and families’ compassion, support, and love. Just thinking of it brings a tear to my eye, but, after all, I am a buffalo heart. Buffalo hearts feel deeply and cry easily.

on Christmas Morning

Christmas with the boys was wonderful. Thomas told me that Santa had many departments in the North Pole, because each area makes a different species of toys. Reynolds told me that if I didn’t eat dinner that I might go extinct. Smiles. We spent some time outside Christmas day by the fire pit. It was a cold Christmas Day, but being outside in the blustery wind and fire made it a perfect holiday. Thank you for all the Christmas wishes from everyone, and, from me to you, Happy New Year.

Goalless for New Year’s?

I am a bit different when to comes to New Year’s resolutions. I do not “do” them. Not because it sets me up for failure; I do not “do” them because they do not serve me. There were points in my life when resolutions and goals were welcomed and regarded with honor, but now, they no longer sparkle for me.

That is why a fundamentalist approach does not work. A fundamentalist takes something and keeps it in their toolbox forever and sees it as an unmoving truth. Not so much for me. It is important to know what works during the different seasons of our lives. Goal setting might be just the thing for me one year, but not the next. Our beliefs, habits, and goals are our servants, not our masters. If we had a butler when we lived in a mansion, but then moved into a one room, 600 square foot studio apartment, we best fire or retire that butler. Fundamentalism is a belief system that takes the butler with them everywhere, even when it is ineffective. The problem with taking the butler with you is that when it doesn’t work out well, the fundamentalist mind is prone to blame themselves for the failure, not the fact that the live-in butler gets in the way, especially in a one-bedroom apartment.

“I am not a goal setting fundamentalist.” I do not try to make anything special out of this time of year; I like to appreciate the specialness as it is. I do not have to add to it. It is like spring, when flowers start blooming; I do not have to set any goals about flowers blooming. There is no goal, such as, “My flowers will bloom on March 22.” Nature has a timing that will allow the flowers to burst forth in their own time.

We each have our season and our values, and if they are “I get to’s” rather than “I have to’s,” then what we do is appropriate for us. I am just letting you know that if we do not write goals and only sip a glass of champagne at midnight on Jan. 1, a time when I will be asleep, then our lives will be fine.

We are so inundated by the goals of changing things and self-improvement, that just allowing life to be is a lost art. I took the EST training in 1981. One of the main thrusts of the seminar was the idea that when we get out of the way of life, our problems lose their luster, and usually clear up on their own. While you might not think this is true and that the thought of nonintervention or not taking life by the reins is iconoclastic, bear with me. This conversation is one for the spirit. It does not mean to stand by when our dog runs toward a speeding car. This idea addresses our emotions and is not something one would apply to a person having a crisis or a mental breakdown. This is an idea spoken to our classic conditioning, which is one of control and one of trying to rectify the incorrect belief that we need to be fixed. We believe that we need to make it right. When there is nothing wrong, then making it right not only zaps our energy, but it makes things worse.

There are times when control is what we need, but when it comes to the very essence of life, control is like trying to stuff an already stuffed animal. When we continue to stuff the poor thing, it bursts at the seams. Whatever you do is fine with me; I am not the goalless expert, but I do know that when we do what we do out of the blessing of our being, the results always make our lives EZier and EZier.

  Abundance Affirmations

Join Anne’s Facebook Group

This group is a place to post uplifting affirmations and thoughts about prosperity and abundant living. Let’s create a right relationship with money so that we feel comfortable about money. Let’s use money as it’s meant to be used, and not as a way to accumulate power or to fill a void. We don’t need money to buy more stuff. We need it to create a world that works for everyone. We want to cast off old beliefs of lack and reclaim our natural state of abundance. Anne, AKA Dr. Money, posts a nightly goodnight video for the prosperity team, and everyone who watches those videos becomes a part of the prosperity team.
