Great Stuff Happens When You Align with Your Deepest Self!

Blue Moon Dreams

100 Days 100 Paintings

In the beginning of July (2010) I embarked upon a project that has literally changed my habits, relationships, use of time, and confidence in myself as a painter.

DECISION
Right now, one of the worst tragedies resulting from our habit of manufacturing throwaway products is the mess on the beaches and in the oceans created by millions and millions of discarded plastic drinking water bottles.

I decided I was ticked off about how I have to practically climb over all the plastic trash when I go for walks on my favorite beach. I mulled and stewed about what I, a single little entity on the face of the planet, could do to help alleviate the problem and even help create a solution.

I finally decided to commit to painting 100 paintings in 100 days (business days), and put them up for sale for $100 each to raise awareness and money for the cleanup of the planetary mess.

And since I really don’t like working small, I chose to do 9″ x 12″ paintings, instead of the usual 4″ x 6″ most of the people I’ve seen doing 100-day projects like this do. Turns out it’s perfect, because if it got any smaller I’d tear my hair out.

Yes, $100 is about one-tenth of what I’d normally get for a painting this size, but it’s also enormously freeing – I feel like I can play with the work more than if it was trying to be some precious expensive MasterPiece.

SOUL STUFF

I had to ask myself in the very beginning, before I set up a single thing: is this venture something I’d hate doing by the 25th painting? Would it seem more like a job than fun? Would I be able to do what I committed to do? How did my Deep Self, my Souul, feel about it?

I had to laugh, because…

Tip for Saving Time

postI’m constantly looking for ways to cut down on marketing time so I can get back to the easel.

I just found a cool site called fiverr.com where there are hundreds of people who say they ‘do anything for 5 bucks.’

I checked them out & liked what I saw, and hired someone to post my painting project page to their huge list 5 times a day for 4 weeks – all for 5 bucks.

I was surprised, then, when I was given access to a control panel – now I can access it and change the posts as often as I like, and the system tweets automatically, saving me time and energy in my marketing.

And today, not even 24 hours later, I’ve gotten almost 100 new clicks that I probably wouldn’t have gotten before.

Here’s where to find fiverr (yes, two rs): http://fiverr.com – and the company I’m using for tweets is:
http://bit.ly/message-broadcaster.

To choose someone to do massive tweeting for you, you do have to be careful – make sure you find out the nature of their list – you don’t want your tweets going to some country where they won’t care about your work or buy your products or services.

And make sure you read the feedback from customers – there was one I saw I liked, but the feedback stank. So I used someone whose feedback and work sounded good. Watch for poor English, as well.

How to Start with a Bang!

Musician Carole King was a regular on my radio in the 60s and 70s. I loved how powerful her voice was, how poignant and true-to-heart her lyrics.

Someone posted the following video on FB today, and I thought it was a great example to watch about not fooling around. Watch as she lovingly, softly announces who she’s bringing onstage to help her, and then how she doesn’t dither around when she starts the song – one huge, loud chord and her belt-em-out voice.

Such a great role model for self-belief and powerful starts! She carried all the way through, too, with variations in mood and tone. I love it!

Don’t Precollapse into I-Won’t Sell-Anything! Expect Success!

vibrateHere’s something I saw in a recent blog comment: “I still submit to shows but not as many. I have been lucky to be invited to shows but I am not expecting the shows to do more than exhibit my work.”

Well, why on earth not?

Expect! Expect! Expect! How can you vibrate,””I’m a happy, successful, appreciated artist (coach, CEO, entrepreneur)” AND “ohhh, I won’t make any sales at this show (speaking engagement, art fair, book signing, coaching session)”?

You can not! Your main vibration’s frequency might be 50,000 Hz, but if some part of you is dragging its feet and vibrating at 9,000, your 50K will be sabotaged.

Tap on it! Expect to make sales! You did NOT go into business to be a failure, feel bad, lose confidence or go broke!

Not familiar with tapping? Go here: EFTinEveryHome.com. Learn how to tap and quit it already with the eternal why-I-can’t-do-its!

Break the Moldy Old Mold with Me!

Rosey LipsAs I told you last week, I’ve been painting up a storm for my Plastic Drinking Water Boottle Cleanup project.

When I first started it up, I promised myself I’d paint a painting every day (M-F!) for 100 days.

Well, I broke my mold! (You can see the painting that did it above.) I took TWO days to do one painting! So, no Monday painting, and today’s painting is $200, not just 100.

I got a note asking me why the paintings are so cheap, because normally they’d be going for 900 and up for the size they are (9″ x 12″). Today’s break-the-mold painting is Rosey Lips, here: http://100Days100Paintings.com

Who Went From Near Death to Creating a Fabulous Color Therapy Course?

daily-om-color-therapy-h

In the five year period following her near death experience in the 80s, Tori Hartman was visited by more than 45 spirits sharing stories. In the next 20 years, Tori pieced together the clues of the strange fables she was told.

From them, she has created an amazing course that helps you finely tune your intuition and clear disempowering beliefs that may have prevented you from moving forward to this point. The secret of how to do this is contained within these fables.

Pretty cool stuff. I thought you’d like to see it (and you even get to choose how much you want to pay!).

Start Taking More Action Towards Living Your Passion!

MoonlightAs I continue to paint a new painting every day for the plastic drinking water bottle cleanup project I’m doing (http://bit.ly/100-100-100), spending more and more time at it, I’m really enjoying the focus and concentration it demands on so many levels, all converging in these blobs of color on canvas.

What Teleclasses Do You Want in the Next 5 Months?

What How-to Teleclasses Do You WantI’m considering topics for a new set of teleclasses.

I’d love to know which one or ones you’d be interested in attending. If you would go HERE and answer the one question survey, I’ll give you a little FREE Goody Bonus!

You also get a space to fill in any I didn’t think of, too – thanks so much!

How Do You Get So Much Done?

Be More Productive Make More MoneyDo you…have a project that has been on hold since the dinosaur ages (and wonder if you’ll EVER get around to actually doing it)?

Do you…get distracted easily and lose the plot…and then kick yourself for not getting what you were doing done?

Or do you often stall, or focus on something other than what you need to do or know you must get done?

Do you…feel frustrated because you know you ‘should’ create a freebie report or an ebook or a coaching course but don’t know where to begin…or when to do it…or how…or even what to write?

If so, then you’ll love this, because I’d like to share some of my key secrets of creating and producing with you.

HOW DO YOU DO SO MUCH?
People keep asking me how I can be so productive – writing all my books, doing my radio shows, painting and carving and coaching….

Well, creating is my passion. I do it because I must. I get antsy and irritable if I don’t, actually.

And, more importantly, I have also trained my mind in a certain way that makes it possible to do a whole lot more than I could if I had not.

There are some very specific key points to being able to create and produce what, when and where you want to produce. I’ll let you in on one of the secrets I use – it’s a very specific kind of to-do list that I call a Master To Do List. You can get it HERE for FREE.

I also have some pretty unique ideas that help me compress my time and get way more done

If you’d like to know what compressing time means, and a whole lot more about how to become super creative and productive, I invite you to check out the teleclass I did on How to Be Super Productive. You can get the audio and transcript HERE!

In it, I fill you completely up with rich clues you can use to completely (easily) revamp your time, expand your life and business success, make more mo.ney and have a whole lot more fun in your life.

YES, COMPRESS TIME – because it’s not about time management – you know, planning this at 10 a.m., plan that at noon, and so on. It’s about how I USE the hours themselves to get way more done than usual.

Going to school and getting trained in hourly segments did us a big disservice by

Learning to Paint – Again?

The DukeI’ve been painting all my life, but I’m the first one to admit I have a whole lot to learn. Recently I’ve been experimenting (tearing out my hair!) with acrylics. I’m used to the pliability and richness of oils, and I’m telling you, acrylics is a whole nother beast.

But I’m slowly getting used to and having more fun with it. I decided I’d try out a portrait of our most famous surfer here in Hawaii. Duke Kahanamoku  was a hero for many, many years, and was instrumental in putting surfing on the map.

He was famous for surfing more than a mile and a quarter on one wave outside in Waikiki, so I put Diamond Head and the wave in the painting, along with a softened allusion to his well-known board.  You can see the Duke HERE.

This week I’m playing with images of outrigger canoe paddlers, splashing water (hard!), philodendron leaves (those huge leaves you could hide under) and other tropical images.

I invite you to bookmark and keep an eye on that site, or friend me on Facebook (just search my name), where my images get automatically updated when I post a new one to the art site. I hope you enjoy my work!

AND – remember to live Audacious, Bodacious, Outrageous and ALIVE! Be Bold and take a Stand for what you believe and love.

OK, I’m Back At It!

Do what you love and live your Dream!This week my client, ‘Cynthia’ lit into me and scolded me crisply. She’d seen my email a couple of months ago where I announced that ‘I Quit,’ and knew I was taking more time for my artwork and cutting back on coaching.

She has been a client of mine for a while now, and she’s always sending me little notes of gratitude. She says, “because of you and your guidance, I’ve gone from being a terrified, limp buttercup to a huge, radiating sunflower in my business and personal life.”

So she was asking me about how it has been for me this past few months as I move my energies to living more of my Dream than ever, and how inspired she felt, herself, just seeing me go for it. That was nice. And then she nailed me.

“Angela,” she said (imagine a soft but very clear, low-toned voice),

Are You STILL Trying to Get Your Book Written?

get your book written and published!If you’re writing a book and can’t keep on track, don’t know where or how to publish it or market it – or maybe you don’t even know where to begin! – help is an email away.

As you know, I mentor people in the creation and publishing of their books. If you want help with yours, I’ve got a couple of openings.

To see if you qualify, just email me at Lyon (at) AngelaTreatLyon.com.

When we work together, I’ll get you started with the one secret document only a few coaches in the world even know about that gets you on your path so steadily that you can dance your way through writing your book. Email me right away!

Heart-Rich

fat-guyI decided about a month ago that, although I felt very fortunate and very rich, my life could be even more so. Why not?? So I have been incorporating some simple things that have been enabling me to create that.

I adore reading. I usually read a book a night (or every 2 or 3, according to how long the book is) – and it’s not uncommon for me to go home from the library with 10 to 15 books at a time. Problem with that is that I go to bed at 1 or 2 and get up bleary-eyed at 8:30, and it takes me until 10 to be human again.

I decided I needed a healthier approach to reading and fitting in my morning meditation. So now I’m trying out going to bed earlier, waking up an hour earlier, meditating and then listening on my trusty iPod to an inspiring or informative audio before I get up.

Lately I’ve really been appreciating Joe Vitale’s Attract-A-Car audios that I got last year, just to remind myself of the pitch and the pace of manifesting.

Other audios are Caroline Sutherland’s (medical intuitive: http://CarolineSutherland.com) extremely informative health-related audios. She has a giant list of FREEbie 90-minute

Bypassing Evil: II

bypass evil - fill yourself with Light!A week or so ago I proposed bypassing instead of fighting evil.

Many of you wrote enraged, saying ‘we should fight it forever,’ that we should not go into denial or lala land about it, and other such comments.

Please understand, I don’t condone evil!

When you walk into a dark room, you don’t stand there and say, “it’s not dark!” And you don’t have a fist fight with, make laws against, arrest, raise sanctions against or bom.b the dark, do you? No! You reach over and turn on the light!

Obviously in the ‘real’ world it seems more complex than that, but you get the concept. How do we do that, though? How do we reach inside and turn on the Light?

Artizen Magazine: Carol Gold and Angela Treat Lyon: On Outdoor Sculpture

Artizen MagazineA few weeks ago, Cindy Marks, who owns and runs Artizen Magazine (a FREEbie online magazine about artistry across the board: cooking, art, software, you name it, as long as it is done artfully) contacted me.

She asked if I would help her research and write an article about outdoor sculpture. Of course I said yes, and actually ended up interviewing one of my favorite artists – Carol Gold, who does delightful bronze sculptures of people and critters – and gathering the article contents, myself.

I heartily invite you to read the magazine article and see the great 5-page (!) layout we were given for it!
http://artizenMagazine.com – look on pages 33-39. You’ll see some of my own work there, as well. You may even want to get onto the mailing list.

And if you are at all curious about how a sculpture can go from wax to bronze, why water, winter and stone carvings don’t mix, or why Carol’s first adventure with doing monumental sculpture almost destroyed her desire to do others, here’s where to listen to the interview:
http://idareyouradio.com/carol-gold-bronze-sculptor

And there’s a link in the article that takes you my article on her as Featured Artist at the International Association of Women’s Sculpture so you can see more of her fabulous art. I hope you enjoy it all!

Honey Breath

happy-dance-1colorA simple exercise that will help you feel great:
1. Stop right now, take a little breath just to relax a bit
2. Rest your hands in your lap
3. Uncross your legs
4. Put your feet flat on the floor (better yet, the earth)
5. Sit up straight without being rigid
6. Gaze gently and casually at the sky
7. Imagine it is as sweet as honey
8. Pretend your pores are drinking in the entire sky as you gaze & take a deep breath in through your nose.
9. Imagine, feel or think about all that sweetness completely soaking into you.
10. Allow it to fill all of you up with each breath
11. Allow the sweetness to seep back out of all your pores and watch it rejoin the sky
12. As you exhale out of your mouth, allow any thoughts, emotions or ideas you don’t like, any pain, toxins or pollutants to gently go out.
13. Just allow them to go out of you, and keep your main focus on the sweet.
14. Allow yourself to BE Sweetness.

Keep breathing gently like this for a minute or two, and see how you feel.

Do this with anything you like – the sky, flowers, the ocean, a sweet breeze, the smile of a child, the idea of deep health, the feeling of inner richness, inspiration or a recent success, the memory of someone’s hug….

And remember that I love you!

What Do Aliens Have to Do with Blessings and Nuclear Change?

UFO from 1000.comOne day back in 1966 when I lived in Santa Cruz, California, I saw a newspaper heading that said, “Aliens to Get Green Cards.”

You know how I think when I tell you that I was shocked, because I thought, “Huh! They don’t even acknowledge the fact that UFOs and aliens exist, and now they’re handing out green cards to them?”

Needless to say, that wasn’t the case at all….(above Image from 1000.com)

And it happened again yesterday. One of my subscribers turned me on (thanks Barbara) to some videos and the websites of a man who makes it his life purpose to go around blessing stuff – people, plants, land…and he works with scientists all over the world to show how the blessings work, even to the point of changing the species of some of the bacteria he blesses. Pretty awesome.

When he talks about what happens, he says it’s a matter of ‘nuclear change.’

Well, when I read the words ‘nuclear change,’ I immediately envisioned green glowing radiation-packed nickels, dimes and quarters in my pocket….

Perception is everything, isn’t it?

So that’s how I changed my panic attack into laughter. I changed my perception.

Per = through
-ception = vision, understanding

Through your understanding you change your experience.

I took the inherent energy in the panic energy and flipped it over on its back and got it to carry me, instead of it blasting me.

Remember how, a couple of weeks ago, I told you about Zoik It? That’s one of the things I did with my panic.

Here’s how you Zoik It:

Can YOU Turn Panic Attacks into Laughter?

No More Panic or AnxietyToday I had a panic attack. It was a huge shock to me, since I haven’t had one in over 6 years.

Here’s how I felt – ever felt like this?

•  My heart was pounding its way out of my chest
•  My hands were hot/cold/clammy,
•  Fear-thoughts were raging at a million per second with no discernible logic or resolution,
•  A giant’s hand gripped my belly and
•  My knees felt as if they’d collapse if I walked an inch.
•  I felt like there was no way to solve the problem

•  I almost felt like I could keel over and die if it got more intense.

But in 20 minutes or less, I turned all that anxiety into a miracle, and walked away laughing.

In the past, I’d have continued my freak out for weeks. It would go deeper and grow into full-on depression, shame and disappointment.

Not even close, today – not even. 20 minutes at the outside, if that.

Here’s why:

  1. I know now how to recognize what’s going on with me and how to stop the panic attack.
  2. I also know now a way to stop the fear from taking energy away from me and make it feed me energy in a clean, uplifting way.
  3. And I know now how to avoid the silent killers that lurk everywhere in our environment that trigger the attacks…everywhere you look, there’s a trigger that you may not even be aware of.
  4. And lastly, I’ve discovered what food, herbal and nutritional supports also help panic and anxiety stay away.

So I thought, heck, how many are there out there who’d like to know how to take this seemingly life-threatening thing and turn it around? Is it you?

How much better would your (or your loved one’s or friend’s) life be to finally not go around in constant concern that you’ll feel suddenly paralyzed on the spot with harrowing fear and anxiety?

If you have never had an anxiety attack, you can’t even imagine what it’s like. It feels like the end of the world, with no answer in sight. You’re all alone, feeling completely powerless and helpless.

So I created some openings for you who are just sick and tired of freaking out and want to find out how to turn your panic, anxiety or terror into miracles, like I did today.

>>> I’ll even share with you what happened to me so you can laugh with delight like I did, too.

I invite you to join me for a 60-minute get-relief session. Once you see what to do, you’ll never be caught out again:

  • Avoid internal triggers that make your fear worse
  • stop invisible emotional triggers
  • avoid environmental triggers
  • stop medical triggers you’re probably not aware of

So you can increase your:

  • health
  • vitality
  • confidence
  • self-assurance of safety
  • energy and creativity
  • free time!

How much time have you wasted because of anxiety or panic?
How helpless have you felt as those attacks nailed you down?
How humiliated have been by your attacks in public?
How many hundreds of dol.lars have you spent trying to find an answer?

Wouldn’t it be awesome to be free of all that?

Click here for a direct link to the end of your panic, anxiety, fear or terror – $99 is a miniscule nothing for relief from years of panic!

Grab yours now because there aren’t that many spots. When you get your thank-you email, you’ll see how to get scheduled so you can get this handled ASAP.

In our time together, I’ll also show you a couple of online resources that will surprise you.

Please don’t go one more extra second freaking out and feeling like there’s no answer, or that it might last forever, or even kill you (that’s how it felt to me – fatal).

I want you to learn how to laugh when you’re beset with what seems like dangerous high energy – and then create your own mirac.les, too.

Remember I love you –

Angela

p.s. Major thanks to my dear friend Rebecca Marina who always supports me generously when I need it most! She helped me tap today, and gave me ideas and resources that helped me tremendously.

Make Money Giving TeleclassesI CHALLENGE YOU TO GET OUT THERE WITH YOUR PASSION AND DO IT!

What is right in front of you that, no matter what your passion or purpose is, could be bringing you new clients, fans and referrals and making you more mo.ney, as well?? No, not your computer – although that is part of it.

Look around – what do you see? It’s so simple it’s absurd!

Your telephone! You hold onto the thing how many hours a day? And…are you making use of it to its fullest possibilities to expand your reach?

If not, why not???? Are you hoarding?

Oh, I couldn’t give teleclasses, you say….Heck, if you can call your family and friends and talk to them on the phone, you can do a teleclass.

Huh? Me? Why would I do that? How DO you do that?

Yes, you. And I’ll tell you how in a minute (in a hurry? go here http://HowtoDoTeleclasses.com)

But first, let’s see WHY you’d want to give a teleclass (teleseminar, teleconference, telemeeting, telesummit, tele-call, tele-whatever-you-want-to-call-it!)….

If you’re as passionate as I think you are about getting the word out about your message, services and products, you absolutely will lose out on the increased impact you desire – not to mention more income – if you don’t utilize teleclasses.

I get countless notes and phone calls from people who want to know “just the basics” of how to do teleclasses. I guess they figure that it’s so simple that all they need is the bridge line info and how to do an easy outline, and off they go.

Nupe. T’ain’t so. There’s just a bit more to it – well, if you want it to be easier on you, and if you want your calls to be good.

It’s a funny combination of easy and complex. Yes, it’s easy to give a teleclass. But the behind-the-scenes creation and set ups, while also easy if you have the right information, venues and systems, are important to do right and in order – and of course your marketing plan, strategy and tactics are crucial.

You need to know the ins and outs so you can plan what you’re doing, develop a road map and follow your steps one by one.

Otherwise you get distracted, out of sequence and frustrated that things take so long and you feel like you’re not getting anywhere.

When you have your systems in place, your progression through the sequence of events is smooth and painless – all the way from idea to creation to presenting your teleclass, to marketing and seeing your money roll on in.

Get the Course here

Here are just 5 ways you can use your teleclasses:

  • freebie teleclasses to introduce your services
  • freebie teleclasses to attract more clients
  • for-fee teleclasses for your large groups
  • do Joint Ventures with expert in courses, summits…
  • And there are way more….

Any of those options is a gateway you can use to bring people in to your world, give them the info you know they want and need, and make some good money at the same time.

Whether you are a seasoned teleclass leader or a newbie to teleclasses, you’ll love the course that came out of what I taught the Round Table Prosperity Group Teleclass Training.

If you want to know how to set your systems up, discover how to get lots of new clients, create mo.ney-making content, lots of ways to market your calls in a non-aggressive manner, I invite you to check this How to Do Teleclasses package out.

I’m allowing a limited number of presales to go through at an outrageously low price, because I want you to be able to have it. For only a short time, I’m taking a full hundred dollars off the 199 that it will end up being.

But don’t wait, because the price goes up in one week: Get the Course here! And when you do sign up, you get a surprise that could save you $475!

Zoik It?!? What’s That?

Zoik It!A weird thing to change your life with….

I had a dream last week that showed me a little trick to get myself back when I was feeling low.

It was so simple, and so quick, and so profound I thought you’d like to hear about it. But I didn’t want to share it with you until I had tried it out a few times to see if it was consistently functional. And I found that, yes – when I work it right – it is!

When I say “work it right” that means that if you’re not fully present when you do it, it isn’t effective.

Here’s the dream:
I was in a place that was supremely uncomfortable. I was cold, I felt weak, I saw no way out, and was becoming enraged. I seldom get angry, much less enraged, so this was a pretty bizarre-feeling dream. I suppose I was given an extreme example to show me the power of this little trick….

I heard this little buzzing in one of my ears, and reached up to wave it away like it was a mosquito.

How’s Your Prosperity This Week?

waddmIgonnadoI can’t even begin to tell you how many emails I’ve gotten from people telling me about how this week they have been freaked out, stuck, paralyzed with fear, can’t move forward to do what they know they need to do…sound familiar?

It isn’t your fault! If you know anything about astrology, you might know that Mercury has been retrograde lately.

What does that mean? In a nutshell, Mercury effects communication. Retrograde means that its energy is moving bass-ackwards to ours; and will do so for a short time more. Which means forget clear communications and making contracts that work.

So if you have felt pressured or nutso or fearful or…again, it isn’t your fault, It’s JUST ENERGY!

What you need to remember is how you respond is what is important, not whose fault it is. What will you do instead of the behavior you aren’t enjoying watching yourself exhibit?

One of my Round Table members told me that, instead of continuing to use the big old stick she had spent a lifetime beating herself up (inwardly) with, she went down and got one of those sparkly purple magic wands, and decided to create magic instead. Now she’s in the process of actually DOing what she knows she wants to do to create progress in her life and business. Nano step by nano step. That’s all it takes.

How can you do that in your own life? What nasty thing do you continually do to yourself that you could switch into something creative, fun, enjoyable and magic?
