For each of us, the universe is different. A homeless man may view the universe as unfair, hard and tough. A rich man may view the universe as a lovely place full of luxury and pleasure. Both of them are viewing the same universe, it is just different because of their perceptions of it and their life experiences.

This is a fundamental key to understanding, to know that how you perceive the universe is how it is to you. If you feel it is full of fear and hatred, then it will be. If you think it is full of love and happiness, it is. Using some of the techniques discussed in this, and other articles, you can start to reprogram the way you perceive the universe and change your life!

Think about how many times you have feared something happening and then it has. For example, you might be worried that you are going to bump your car, and then you do. Was it a premonition or did you create it? Compare this to the amount of times you have looked forward to something and then it has happened. Usually the fear is a much stronger emotion and focus, which causes the object of that fear/thought to manifest much more quickly.

Of course, thought and belief does not just create the universe on an emotional and psychological level, but also on a material level. We may fear that we are not good with money and hence we are not. You can use your will and focus on manifesting items that you want to further your life with. Remember that you can only manifest things you believe you can have. You may wish for a million dollars, but unless you really believe you can have it, you will not get it.

You need to be aware that things are not just going to fall out of the air and land on your lap, though on occasion they may well do so, literally as well as figuratively. It sometimes takes a little while for what you want to manifest to appear. Sometimes it requires faith and patience on your part. It might be the Universe is testing you to see if you really want it and will really dedicate yourself to getting it before you get it. You cannot sit back and wait for what you want to manifest.

There is a saying "God helps those who help themselves". This is true. When you are manifesting it is essential that you listen to your intuition and follow your instincts. It often also depends on whether what you are trying to manifest is in tune with your life's purpose or not. If it is not then you have an uphill struggle to manifest it. Also, if you manifest for selfish needs and with your ego then it is not likely to work. It works best when you manifest for the greater good, selflessly, and from your higher self.

When working on manifesting remember to keep your mind open as to how it is going to appear in your life. For example, many of us may want to manifest more money. We have a mental program that says, "more money means I have to work more". This is not necessarily true. You might manifest more money from a promotion, a raise at work, a change of job or career, from a competition win, an inheritance, and many other ways. You need to be open to this because if you mentally limit the ways the Universe can provide to you then it is going to be much harder for what you want to come into your life. Listen to your intuition too because it will help guide you. You might get the urge to buy a newspaper suddenly. You buy it and notice the exact car you want for sale in it. Our intuition is from our higher self and will guide us if we listen to it.

You can use decrees, affirmations, and positive visualisation to help you create what you want in your universe. This does not just have to be limited to material items, but you can work on bringing more love, more joy and many other things into your life and the lives of those around you. When you are working on manifesting things such as these into your life look to the root cause of what you are lacking. For example, you might feel you are lacking love in your life. Examine the cause and you might see it is because of a lack of self-worth or self-love, or because of something in your childhood. Once you are aware of why you can work on dealing with the issue and healing yourself. Then you will find it much easier to bring, and to keep, what you desire in your life.

Another exercise you can do to help you manifest is to realise the abundance of the universe. Abundance will be the subject of another article, and is dealt with fully within the course, but take a walk outside some time and look at how abundant nature is. See how freely nature gives and how much is given. Think about this and how abundance can be a part of your life.

You can use affirmations such as:

* I am worthy of love and respect from others and myself

* I have an abundance of money in my life

* I am good with money and spend it wisely

* I open myself to the abundance of the universe

* I am in tune with my higher self

* I accept that I am a good and worthy person

Finally, remember these points:

Believe in what you are trying to manifest

Listen to your intuition

Manifest from your higher self and in harmony with your life's purpose

Manifesting is not just limited to material items. You can manifest more love, happiness, peace, and much more

Manifest for others, not just yourself

That YOU create the universe you live in, so changing your perceptions of it, changes the universe

Believe in yourself and what you can achieve. You can manifest anything you desire in your life, good or bad. Harness the power of your sub-conscious mind in manifesting your desires through the Manifestation Audio CD at http://www.stateofhypnosis.com/audio/abundance/ma.php

Leaping onto the television landscape in Fall 2001, Smallville follows the exploits of a young Clark Kent in the years leading up to his emergence as the beloved Superman. Following a slew of TV renditions of the character's life since the comic book first appeared, Smallville sets itself apart by focusing on the lesser discussed niche of Clark's earliest developmental days. Superb casting and consistent writing have combined to make Smallville one of the more popular shows on television (especially in international markets), making the show one of the WB network's most successful creations to date…

Tom Welling stars in the imminent role of teenager Clark Kent, a refugee from the dying planet of Krypton. His ship having landed in the rural American town of Smallville, Clark is raised by locals Martha (Annette O'Toole) and Jonathan Kent (John Schneider - of Dukes of Hazzard fame) as their own son. Unlike some of the film and TV spin-offs, Smallville attributes powers to other individuals in the area as a result of some of the debris associated with Krypton's destruction. As a result, Clark is forced to keep his own powers a secret while battling against other individuals who are more powerful than traditional human criminal elements. The show also provides a glimpse into the early friendship experienced between Clark and Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum) as well as Clark's romance with two high school classmates, Chloe Sullivan (Allison Mack) and Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk). Part sci-fi fantasy and part teenage soap, Smallville is an instant television classic…

The Smallville DVD offers a number of exciting episodes including the series premiere in which the stage for the series is set by recounting the story of Clark's voyage to earth in the aftermath of Krypton's destruction. Clark meets Lex Luthor for the first time as well as a human mutated by the strange green rocks which accompanied Clark's spacecraft in the meteor shower… Other notable episodes from Season 1 include "Hourglass" in which the green rocks enable one man to reverse the aging process so that he can seek revenge on his enemies, and "Stray" in which a runaway kid named Ryan has the power to read minds, prompting his stepparents to attempt to exploit him for financial gain…

Have you recently made the decision to host a formal Thanksgiving party? If so, have you started planning and preparing for your party? If not, it may be time to get started. As you likely already know, all parties, regardless of their type, require some planning and preparation, but formal parties often require more planning and preparation.

One of the many things that you will need to do, when it comes to planning a formal Thanksgiving party, is invite your party guests. Since your party will be formal in nature, it may be a good idea to send out formal party invitations. These invitations should clearly state the fact that your party is intended to be a formal party. If you wish for your guests to arrive in formal or elegant eveningwear, it is advised that you state so on your invitations. Since your guests may need to purchase additional clothing, just to attend your party, it is advised that you send out your invitations in advance, a month in advance is an appropriate amount of time.

In addition to invitations, you will also need to decide, ahead of time, which food or drinks you will be serving at your formal Thanksgiving party. In addition to just having on hand snacks, you may also wish to prepare a formal Thanksgiving dinner. A Thanksgiving dinner is ideal for formal Thanksgiving parties. Before your party, at least a few weeks before, it is advised that you sit down and prepare a list of foods, snacks, or drinks that you would like served. It may also be a good idea to start buying these items, especially if you are lucky enough to find them on sale.

Entertainment is also something that you need to plan and prepare for. No party is complete without entertainment. Having light music playing in the background or an area set up as a dance floor is a great way for your guests to socialize during your party. Elegant music, elegant clothing, and an elegant party setting is the perfect way for you and your party guests to spend your evening celebrating Thanksgiving. At your liking, you can easily incorporate additional forms of entertainment into your formal Thanksgiving party.

While elegant eveningwear is enough to set a formal Thanksgiving party apart from a casual one, you may be looking for more. That is why it is also advised that you plan, as well as purchase your holiday party decorations in advance. Online or in your local retail stores, you should easily be able to find a collection of elegant Thanksgiving party decorations, including centerpieces, placemats, candles, and more. If you make the decision to purchase your Thanksgiving party decorations locally, it is advised that you get decorations as soon as you see them available for sale. A large number of retail stores are limited on the decorations that they carry; therefore, you will want to make sure that you get yours before they are all gone.

As previously mentioned, not only are you advised to start planning your Thanksgiving party early, but you are also advised to start preparing for it early, as with buying your Thanksgiving party decorations. In addition to buying your party supplies early, you may also want to prepare your home for your formal Thanksgiving party. When attending any party, guests expect the party host’s home to be clean and inviting. With a formal party, your guests will likely expect more. That is why it is advised that you start cleaning and preparing your home weeks or, at the least, in the days before your party is set to take place. Of course, there are some tasks that you may not want to start until right before your party, but it is wise to get a jump start on all of your cleaning.

When it comes to planning a formal Thanksgiving party, as you can easily see, there is a lot of hard work, preparation, and planning that is involved. Despite all of the work, the end result, a successful elegant Thanksgiving party, is almost always worth it.

Throughout America, potatoes are the most popular

vegetable, even being ahead of other well known

vegetables such as lettuce and onions. You can

cook potatoes in a variety of ways, and they are

included in one out of three meals eaten by almost

all Americans. When they are prepared in a healthy

way, a potato can be an excellent source of energy

and also pack a nutritional punch.

Like oranges, potatoes are very high in vitamin C.

The fact is, one medium potato contains 45% of the

vitamin C that's recommended for good health.

Potatoes are also high in fiber and carbohydrates

and contain more potassium than a banana.

A potato is naturally low in calories and contains

no fat, sodium, or cholesterol. The skins of the

potatoes provide a helpful dose of fiber, iron,

potassium, calcium, zinc, phosphorus, and several

B vitamins.

You can prepare potatoes by boiling them, steaming

them, or even roasting them. If at all possible,

you should avoid putting potatoes in the refrigerator

or freezing them, as cold will turn the potato

starch to sugar and cause them to turn dark when

they are cooked.

When you store potatoes, keep them in a cool, dark

place. Too much light will cause them to turn green.

You can store them in the basement if you have

one, as the basement is the best place to keep

potatoes.

From mashed potatoes to baked potatoes, a potato

is something we all know and love. They serve

many different tasty foods, and they provide our

bodies with plenty of healthful benefits. We all

eat potatoes, some of us even grow our own. Whether

you grow your on or buy them, the potato is

the one vegetable that makes everything just a

little bit better.
