In This Issue:

Dear Dolphins,

On a recent Sunday afternoon, I drove down to the Bicycle Club to play in one of the ladies poker tournaments put on by LIPS (Ladies International Poker Series www.lipstour.com, the brain child of the fabulous Lupe Soto). I’ve had a great time getting to know lots of terrific women through this hobby of mine.

One of the regulars I always saw there was my old friend Gaylene, who used to be my head bookkeeper at the bookkeeping service I owned. A bright woman with a boisterous laugh, it was always a pleasure to see her. We had lost touch over the years, but reconnected over poker at these ladies events. I was expecting to see her on this Sunday too, when one of her buddies came up to me and said something terrible had happened. The month before, Gaylene had a stroke at a family gathering, lost consciousness, and passed away days later. She was only 55.

People leave the planet every day. It’s always a reminder that we don’t know the length of the thread on our spool of life, so we have to be happy now, enjoying the dance of life while we’re dancing it. Don’t wait until you have more money in the bank, your debts paid off, you’ve met the partner of your dreams, or you’ve won the lottery. We have a rich and wonderful existence today and our journey will be so much sweeter each day that we remember to acknowledge it and be grateful.

The next day on my morning walk, the colors of the flowers looked a little brighter and the air smelled fresher as I remembered Gaylene with affection, and expressed gratitude and thanks to God for all our friends and fellow travelers in our beautiful world.

This month’s article was contributed by my dear friend, Lynda Malerstein, a certified hypnotherapist who wrote a wonderful piece on a child actor’s joy that I wanted to share with you.

Wishing you a lovely journey each day.

Love and hugs,
Chellie

Here’s what people are saying about the course:

“I did it 3 times! It works!!—J.J. Flizanes, www.InvisibleFitness.com 800-571-5722 x 84

“The course works wonderfully…I literally doubled my income while taking the course.”—Marc Chroman, www.chroman.com 818-274-6824

“Taking Chellie’s tele-seminar was wonderful! In the beginning I had to really fight with myself to do the homework. Then I got it! I finally realized what all of my bad, self-sabotaging patterns were, where they all actually came from, and how to change them. This was a huge breakthrough for me and incredibly liberating! I learned how to go from looking at my feet to looking at the stars. My dreams are huge now! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm loving on ya, Chellie Campbell!—Sharon Buck, www.BodyworkersResource.com 386-328-3743

“Just proud to say Chellie, that I took your class twice and within 2 years I opened my own salon, nailed down 3-4 reality shows, and now proudly have a complete hair care line thanks to you teaching me how to send out my ships. I LOVE YOU.”—Billy Lowe, Celebrity Hairstylist & Beauty Expert, http://www.facebook.com/l/;billylowe.com 323-654-2819

"When I took Chellie's course, I was at a standstill in many ways. My business was growing, but so were my fears. One of my biggest fears was to pick up the phone and make sales calls. What if they rejected me? Yet, I loved face to face selling and meeting new people. So I had to force myself to face my fear. You know what? Now, I can't wait to call new people. Why? Because I find them to be interesting and fun. And, I no longer even think that they are rejecting me personally. They are not, and each one in their own way has brought a new opportunity. It's been amazing. Thanks so much Chellie for changing my attitude. And most importantly, my actions.”—Nancy Mills, Founder, Spirited Woman, www.thespiritedwoman.com

The Joyful Dance of Life

“When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It's to enjoy each step along the way.” Wayne Dyer

In one of my many incarnations I was a children’s talent agent representing child actors from ages 5 to teen. Most of the auditions were for TV commercials. During this process, a casting director would call me to send a child out to read lines or sometimes just to chat with her and then be put on tape. If they liked the child, he’d be called back one or two more times until he or she would be booked or dropped. The disappointment of not being chosen was keenly felt by these little actors even though there are a lot of factors effecting these decisions that have nothing to do with the child’s attractiveness, talent or acting ability. One of my very young clients, however, always maintained a sense of confidence, joy and excitement when going out to auditions. I later found out that after each audition his Mom would congratulate him for doing his “commercial” and they would celebrate. He read his lines, he talked to the camera, he gave his al l and he really did do a “commercial”. He didn’t know or care whether he was getting a call back or whether the commercial he did would be on TV. He had done his job; he was having fun and was being rewarded for it. He was enjoying the journey and feeling proud.

That was over 20 years ago and I often think about that joyful little boy and the wisdom of the parents who gave him a foundation of appreciation for the success he was creating each and every moment. For many of us, by the time we’ve reached adulthood, we’ve so buried the joy of what we are doing under the burdens of being judged by ourselves or others that we lose sight of the purpose of self expression. That’s it. Expressing and appreciating ourselves.

How often do you recognize your small triumphs? When was the last time you acknowledged your project in process? Congratulate yourself for something today. And don't just think it. Say it out loud. Your subconscious mind is listening.

Now, go celebrate how wonderful you are.

"Man has always assumed he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much--the wheel, New York, wars, and so on--while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man for precisely the same reason."--Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
