My Law of Attraction homework that Cheryl Squiers from Become a Lotus assigned to me last week was as follows:
“What are you doing creating new habits and working the law of attraction – you’re rewiring your brain from the normal patterns of neural connections that were handed down to you genetically (my brain, your father’s brain, your grandparents on both sides and on and on) and those that you created yourself thru your life’s experiences. The brain patterns which ended up giving you the beliefs that you’ve carried around your whole life need to be changed, as they have stopped you from creating the desires of your heart, and that is what we are doing, creating new neural connections in your brain with the exercises I am having you do.
This week what I want you to do is to write the vision of your life that you want. Write it in story form, preferably one page long. You can write other visions later on, but for now you need to write it one page long. After you compose it, I want you to print it out and put it in a place where you can read it everyday, at least once a day, more would even be better.”
This assignment was a lot of fun and after a hectic week, I wrote it. Though it’s not the best writing I’ve ever done, it’s from my heart. Each detail has meaning to me:
I have the best friends and family in the world. I pause before the large wooden door that opens onto the veranda over-looking the sea, and they’re all there waiting for me. I’m the woman of the hour, and dressed in my just above the knee gold and crystal fitted dress, I look like it. I take a deep breath and try to absorb this moment. It’s my celebration party for appearing on the Oprah show today! I talked about my Pulitzer prize-winning book Brunhilda and my first book The Triple Goddess Experiment, the book that put me on the New York Times Bestseller List. But even though I’ve had those two incredible accomplishments, everyone really knows you’ve arrived once you’ve appeared on Oprah…
The most amazing thing about the day I taped the show was that Maya Angelou and Barack Obama were guests as well. I’ve wanted to meet Barack for a while now, and of course, as a writer Maya Angelou has also been on my list. Oprah booked us all together because she thought that we have all had an incredible positive impact on the world and wanted to discuss personal transformation and how we can have an impact on others. My book The Triple Goddess Experiment has encouraged a lot of people to meditate, do yoga and use the law of attraction to better their lives. Brunhilda really made a lot of headlines and affected people in a more subtle, but very spiritual way. People all over the world wept when they finished with the book and were motivated to become more spiritual.
Well, they’re all waiting for me…yeah my publishers and editors, but more importantly Bryan, mom and Jimmy. Rob and Ricky and both my dads. Sarah, John, Megan and Robby. My cousins and aunts and uncles. Cara and Michelle and Caroline. Over 100 people….but these are the most important. We’ll be showing the show on a big flat screen that Bryan and I had set up specially for this occasion. The party is catered by the best catering company in …Scotland. Oh yeah, did I mention that the party’s at my castle on Wee Cumbrae island in Scotland?
Well, here I go…

This assignment was easy for me to envision and see. I’ve been imagining myself on Oprah for the last few weeks. So, I thought, well, why not write about it. Then, I realized it’s not that moment so much that would thrill me, but the celebration of that moment with my family and friends. The love I feel when I’m with them and the glory we would have together over my success will be incredible.
Namaste.
