  1. Hi Linda,

    Nice and easy manner in front of the camera and just the right length at 10 minutes with 2 practicals tips. One thing that has helped me over the years in studying and applying the course is a prayer taken from “The Happy Dream” that I memorized and repeat every time I notice the critic trying to take charge.

    “I desire this holy instant for myself,
    That I may SHARE it with my brother, whom I love.
    It is not possible that I can have it WITHOUT him, nor he without me.
    Yet it is WHOLLY possible for us to SHARE it NOW.
    And so I choose THIS instant as the one to offer to the Holy Spirit, That His blessing may descend on us, and keep us BOTH in peace.”

    I don’t know how many thousands of times I save prayed these words but I can tell you that it does not take long to shift out of critic mode. This is my personal favorite “intervention.”

    Your video reminds me of these words and a practice that I made an intention to become like a knee-jerk reflex when the critic surfaces.

    Fondly,

  2. I love this and I’m signed up to do the 40 day course. Tried it once before but my sharp edged toys got in the way. I’m boxing them up today and giving them away

    • Well Happy Birthday! I can SO relate to how you are feeling! I am 39…just had my 8th baby in July! I tend to think towards the future and how old I’ll be when they are a certain age..I had to stop doing that because, to me, age is only a nu;8&re#b230mI still feel 20 something! Anyhow…I love your blog and cant wait to read more!

  3. Thank you Linda God is never late and as I was sitting with him this morning the bully was with me I wrote about it then turned on my tablet and he gave me your video Ohhhhh I remember I have done the 40 days and Ohhhhh I am setting the intention today to put down the sharp edged toys and have an INTENTIONAL INTERVENTION!!! AND ALSO A I NEVER SAW THAT PRAYER LOVE IT

  4. hello linda

    thanks for the video. i have been writing my thoughts since monday night book sharing and i woke this morning depressed knowing my devotion was in the gutter to self destructive thoughts. so i began early to change my mind and stop punishing myself. then i got this and felt like i had brothers to join with in healing my mind. i appreciate the timing of the video and i already joined the 40 day group. blessings

  5. What a glorious relief when I stopped attacking myself and simultaneously the ego projection stopped attacking me also. A taste of eternity for sure!

  6. That was great! Thankyou Linda.
    I enjoyed the generalization of the “inner critic” to “sharp edged children’s toys”. This is a perfect summary of the practice of un-doing, as described in the Course.

  7. Dear Linda,
    Thank you for being so kind and sharing this practice. I was “off” Today and the inner critic was the culprit. Now I know what to do. 💙

  8. Linda, my sweet Linda,
    You are so brilliant, perfect timing once again for the message and to spread the word of the 40 Day Transformation.
    You nailed it as we must have the same exact inner critic….not “enough” run rush and run and rush more….do more….ugh it is tiring and sometimes You need to get shaken up and say Hey it is all good……I love you and see you soon I hope.
    Love
    Becky

    • CALICO!!!! I totally adore you too! I would love to catch up some time soon. I have a feeling you’ve been up to some really good stuff!!

  9. Linda your words have been very insightful and have given me food for thought. I am signed up for the 40 Day Program starting in January. Thank You

  10. I listened when I first got email but was feeling ok so deleted it. Its been a rough week and I caught myself in a sad way yesterday and thought of the 49 day program which I did a couple months back, but it was so new to me, I didnt understand alot of it, but certain things were so true Ive decided to try it again.

    • So glad you’re doing the 40 Day again. It’s ok if you don’t understand it all. You’ll get exactly what you need. Please keep going. xoxo

  11. Linda your message was the answer I had been waiting for a situation that has been happening for a few months now. I was listening and – you know who- was in my mind : there is nothing in this message that applies to my situation… bla bla bla ( which is being so harsh with a dearest person of mine and feeling so bad for going so far out of track). At the end I got it: my inner critic was manipulating me to feel guilty and lowering my vibration, sidestepping me of my most valued and hawk washing state of Happines. The sharp edged toy : reacting to a sister that sometimes forgets who she is and my toy so enjoys that I also forget Who we both Are.
    THANK YOU and Blessings !!!

  12. Puts the Course in a nutshell. This will be my 4th time doing the 40 dayer. It’s transformational without a doubt and you’ll look back and wonder how it all happened and CONTINUES happening!

  13. Miss Linda, I just love listening to you and seeing your beautiful shining face.I wanted to tell you about the last video I saw you in and how much it has helped me to respect and value my brothers. It was the one about not seeing errors, about not trying to fix other people. This video on the 2 exercises is a great sequel to the first one I watched on not seeing errors. I drove me through HS to link with these 2 pages, Linda: p. 425 and 431 in workbook. These are so powerful to me and the blessing is your Self, guiding me.

  14. You can have Magma stand on the fire with one foot if you’re cafruel. That’s how Diamond showed her on their facebook page and it actually looks pretty cool. (You just can’t mess with it a whole lot since it’s not a very snug fit)

  15. 189.“A Real Estate agent misrepresenting the truth – hey, it’s what we do. It never ceases to amaze me how dumb intelligent, educated people can be and for that I am grateful”I say the same about the well educated idiots who will have the store of their life savings vaporized by an openly criminal monetary and g_overnment simply because they would rather watch dancing with the stars.

  16. Wow, superb blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you make blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is wonderful, as well as the content!. Thanks For Your article about Vittalisa .

  17. quisiera que me respondieras a unas preguntas por ejemplo a la hora de encajar una caja de naranjas del calibre 2 con 48 piezas el encajado en 4X4 y los milimetros van del 85 al 90 y la caja pesa 14.900 kg. si quiero que pese 15.600 kg. que tengo que hacer y si es al contrario que pesa 16.400 que tengo que hacer. muchas gracias por la respuesta.fulgen

  18. total manque de tact!!Quant à vos notions entraînant droits et devoirs,nous aimerions que vous soyez plus explicite sur les DEVOIRS!!!!! Pas la peine de nous l’a jouer grands airs………..Seriez vous atteint de la maladie d’alzheimer??????

  19. I haven't read Peter Pan since I was a child but it was a huge favourite then, one of the first books I read (and reread) alone. I loved the book but Peter scared me; he was so capricious and downright dangerous. I shouldn't have been so surprised, maybe, to realise the main character in my first novel for kids (I'm a pic book writer/illustrator) is a version of Peter, and I was busy trying to 'fix' him…the book had obviously gone deep into my psyche!

  20. Howdy! I understand this is somewhat off-topic however I had to ask. Does running a well-established blog like yours take a massive amount work? I’m brand new to writing a blog but I do write in my diary on a daily basis. I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Appreciate it!

  21. Ó CN, mas como é que V. sabe que é absolutamente impossível??E também escreve que nada num modelo permite concluir que dado A, se obtém B.Bom, em última análise, isso é verdade para qualquer modelo, seja ele qual for. Mas isso já é mais do domínio da filosofia. De facto, ninguém pode ter a certeza absoluta de que a realidade vai obedecer à previsão de uma modelo seja ele qual for…

  23. Yeah, I’d love to see some eye close-ups.For a long time, I thought he was wearing eyeliner (on his lower lids). Then recently (I think it was last week, or maybe the week before) it looked as if he was wearing mascara instead! It was like a whole different look! Ha.I still think that by insisting that he wears no make-up, Nestor and his Lost-cast pals may be running an extended April Fools type joke on us, a kind of benign “long con,” to use Sawyer’s term. (Look at all the new vocabulary I’m learning by watching Lost! )

Il y a plus de vingt ans lorsque j’etais en apprentissage !FORD BLANQUEFORT était un modele d’entreprise bon nombres de mes copains de classe y on fait des stages ,et même embauchés aprés leurs diplômes.Nous ne pouvons pas laisser partir la qualité , le savoir faire ect… des salariers de FORD !N’y t’il pas des solutions ?
