Film Producer seeks people who are making a Difference in the World.
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

I am a Film Production Agent for Inspired Living Entertainment Pty Ltd. We produce inspiring, uplifting and enlightening entertainment, primarily film and cross-media projects, which makes a positive difference to humanity.


We are currently producing a film, The Difference - A Quest, which will be filmed in Australia and internationally and is due for release in 2011. The Difference - A Quest is a similar genre film to the phenomenally successful Australian film, The Secret, although the film topic and filming style is different. The Difference - A Quest will appeal to a similar audience as The Secret and What the Bleep Do We Know?



We have the opportunity to involve a handful of people who work in the Self-Improvement industry. I am currently making initial connections with people who work holistically and are making a difference either to the environment or to people and we think what you do fits this criterion. If you feel there may be some synergies between your work and The Difference and you are interested in being involved in "The Difference" Film Project, then please get in touch with us.



If you have a spark of an interest in The Difference project I would love to briefly chat with you about it. Our Producer, Jacqueline Bignell, is conducting project briefings and I would like to invite you to attend if you feel there could be a synergy between your work and ours. To express your interest please email me directly
Transformation@iinet.net.au



I look forward to hearing from you and sharing more with you about this amazing project and discussing your possible involvement.



Kind regards,
Stacie Hewish

The Art of Loving
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The Art of Loving
by Frank Vilaasa

When a rosebush starts to bloom, we know what to expect. We don’t stand around waiting for little green men to pop out. When we enter a relationship, however, our expectations are often for little green men – singing, dancing, bearing gifts and cracking jokes. Many of us carry all kinds of illusions about love, and end up missing out on the real thing.
Our illusions have changed over the years. While our grandparents dreamt of knights in shining armour, our fantasies are now more narcissistic. Narcissism is more about being admired than being loved. In the myth, the youth Narcissus sees his reflection in a pool of water. He becomes so captivated by his own reflection that he loses all awareness of himself, till he eventually starves to death gazing at himself reflected in the pool.
This is what many lovers nowadays seek to do. They look for someone who will reflect their image back to them in such a way that they become enraptured with themselves. Men seek women to appreciate and praise them, and women do the same thing. Each person becomes a pool of water for the other, reflecting back an enhanced self-image to his or her partner.
If our chosen pool of water starts reflecting unpleasant things back to us, we become very disturbed. They may be telling us some truth about ourselves, but this is not what we want to hear. We are not really interested in the other person, but only in what they can reflect back to us about ourselves. Eventually, like Narcissus, we lose awareness of ourselves and become starved – of genuine companionship, and of love.

The Nature of Love
Love is an energy that arises spontaneously in the heart. There is nothing we have to do to make it happen. Inside each of us there are wellsprings of love, which are always ready to flow. If we are not experiencing love right now, it is not because we are failing to create it. Not at all. We are, in fact, preventing it from arising.
We can think of love as like water flowing in a stream. Our illusions about love are like dams across the stream, blocking its flow. When we see that the flow is dammed up, it doesn’t help to jump into the stream with a paddle and start trying to move the water along. All we have to do is remove the dam.
How do we prevent love from arising? Besides narcissism, there are six other ways in which we block the flow of love:-
Possessiveness turns the other person from an autonomous being into an object. It demeans the other, and is self-centred rather than loving.
Dishonesty cuts the other person off from who we really are in that moment, creating confusion and mistrust.
Expectations/Demands are an attempt to force a response from another person. They prevent the possibility of love arising spontaneously.
Judgements show a lack of tolerance and acceptance for the other – qualities that the heart needs in order to open.
Idealism lacks acceptance of the frailties and imperfections that are part of everyone’s human nature. It makes the other person feel unnecessarily inadequate.
Projecting into the future. By creating dreams and expectations for the future, we turn our backs on the only place where love is found – the present moment.
We may know these things intellectually, yet in spite of this we can still find ourselves acting in unloving ways. The barriers that we place in the way of love are generally put there unconsciously. Other people may see what we are doing, but we are often blind to it. The first step to removing obstacles is to recognise that they are there. Once we have seen them, then removing them is actually easy. It’s just a matter of giving up old habits.

Besides removing barriers, there are positive things we can do to cultivate love. There is a close connection between our thoughts and actions, and the spontaneous arising of love. Love will not just happen under any circumstances. Like every other aspect of life, it is governed by certain universal laws.
There are seven steps we can take to cultivate the right climate in which love can blossom.
Be here now. Love is only ever experienced in the present moment. Being present, making eye contact, tuning in and sharing feelings in the moment; all these help to bring us to the place where love is found – the here and now.
Be non-possessive. Respecting the freedom of the other person just to be themselves, without any interference from us, greatly helps love to blossom.
Trust. Letting go of anxiety, and trusting in the innate goodness of the other person, and in the benevolence of the universe, will help the heart to open.
Be honest. The more you can open up with someone, the greater the intimacy that can develop. Honesty and vulnerability go hand in hand. They break down the barriers between ourselves and others.
Transform negative emotions. If anger/fear/jealousy etc arise, rather than project them onto the other person, we need to take responsibility for them and learn to transform them. This is done through awareness, acceptance and practicing positive affirmations to counter these negative states.
Be forgiving. Nobody is perfect – including ourselves. By practicing forgiveness, we release the judgements and negative emotional reactions we may have when others act unconsciously towards us.
Be grateful. Seeing the glass as half full rather than half empty helps us to appreciate all that we have been given. Complaining closes the heart, whereas gratitude helps it to open.


Balancing Action and Feeling
The art of loving consists in finding a balance between cultivating the right attitudes and behaviour (action/control), and being spontaneous (letting go into feeling). Love is not just a matter of technique – it happens spontaneously, when our thoughts and actions are in harmony with the true nature of the heart.
There are two sides to the heart. The right side is the active side, and is affected by our attitudes and behaviours. The left side is the spontaneous side, and is affected by factors that are beyond our control – such as karma, astrology, past life connections and so on.

When it comes to loving relationships, people generally fall into two categories. There are those who believe in romance, meeting the ‘right’ person and letting the magic happen. If the magic doesn’t happen, or if it fades away, then it could not have been the right person.
The second type believes that relationships have to be worked at. They believe in the active side of love. They will do and say all the right things, follow the guidelines and generally ‘try’ to create a loving connection.
While each of these approaches has some validity, neither is complete in itself. Each represents only half of the story, and is not enough in itself to ensure a life of love. Love is magic – but it also needs an understanding of the laws of love to make it endure. Otherwise we can easily stifle the magic with our foolish behaviour. Love can make you soar up into the clouds – but you need two wings to fly - the left wing of spontaneity, and the right wing of acting in harmony with the universal laws of love. Without this you’ll be like a one-legged duck in a pond – just going round and round in circles.
Aligning our thoughts and behaviour with the universal laws of love creates a balance and harmony between the two sides. The masculine, active side supports the feminine, spontaneous side, rather than interfering with it.
It is, however, in the spontaneous side of love that its real magnificence lies. When love arises, we find ourselves in the presence of something far grander, wiser and more powerful than we are. It cannot be reduced to a few words or gestures. Our thoughts and actions can support the arising of love – but they cannot cause it.
What causes love? Nothing. Love is not caused by anything we do or say. Love is our essential nature. It is already there, waiting deep in our hearts for us to give up trying to control our lives, and surrender to it. Love demands from us a surrender – and then it rewards us with the greatest fulfilment in life. It gives us a seat at the table of the Gods, where we can drink a glass of their nectar with them.
Love is the doorway to the divine, and the practice of aligning your thoughts and behaviour with universal law removes the rust that has collected at its hinges. The door then swings open, and ushers you into the palace of the gods. In the palace, a life of magnificence awaits you. When the heart awakens to its full potential – when our actions are in harmony with our feelings – a peace and tranquillity arises in us, beyond anything we have previously known.

Inspired to Success provides over 20 inspiring stories from highly successful people from all corners of the globe. Top-professionals from a variety of industries contributed personal accounts of living a life full of inspirational success, whether it is peace of mind, good health, increased wealth or experiencing joy in their lives. “Many of them, including myself, had to overcome challenges to discover their own definition of success and realize their dreams, and those stories are both heartening and enlightening,” said Stacey Huish founder of Training For Transformation.

“I am both honoured and humbled to be invited to take part in this book, especially considering the calibre of the others involved,” said Stacey Huish. “I hope my story helps to inspire others to find new ways to live life to the utmost, and to define their concept of “success” in a fresh, expanded way.”

Stacey Huish has been formally trained in and had over sixteen (16) years of real, hands on, raw experience in all areas of Communication, Business, and Life Coaching.

Being a part of this book has allowed me to reach thousands of people – just like me – who are perhaps searching for ways to increase overall success in their lives.

I am Now a Published Author!!!


WOW! What an exciting honor it has been to be invited to include my own personal story in a compilation book with Dr Wayne Dwyer, Sandy Forster, Ester and Jerry Hicks and other Authors.
Our book is a collection of over 20 individual stories on attitudes of abundance. We are writing about an Abundance of Love, an Abundance of Money, an Abundance of Communication, an Abundance of Giving, an Abundance of Health, an Abundance of Wealth, an Abundance of Knowledge, an Abundance of Wisdom, and many other attitudes of Abundance as well.

It has been an incredible journey to write my own story and then watch the whole process of the book be put together, edited and take shape and now go to print.
The book is going to print in December and will be on the shelves in January 2009.

Right now, I am looking to sell 400 copies of the book in the next two weeks.

Anyone who helps me out and purchases a copy before the print run will have the book posted to them free of charge. The purchase price of the book is $22.90

Happy Abundance

Stacey

Emerging Leaders: Is leadership what you thought it was going to be?
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Emerging Leaders: Is leadership what you thought it was going to be?
Let me share a story with you!

Woohoo!, I finally have a leadership role in this company. All those years of hard work, being the best in my field of expertise, superb technical knowledge, I know everything there is to know about this job, I could even do it blind folded and they finally gave the leadership role. I can now lead this company to great success and great heights. BUT, one thing bothers me…. How do I get the rest of the team to do the job as well as I did? I tell them what they have to do and they just don’t listen! …. In fact most of them just ignore me completely and do whatever they want. I find it really difficult to get the other departments to co-operate with me and my team. It’s like they don’t respect me,. I am even finding that conflicts are arising and darned if I know what to do to solve them. There is always one person who is unhappy with the decision I make. I just can’t seem to please them all. I even find myself resorting to punishments and rewards to get the work done. Staff don’t turn upon time, they leave early. It’s like they are unhappy to be here, they don’t love the job the way I do.
I feel frustrated, and even helpless, because I do not know how to handle the situation.

I wanted to be the best leader in my organisation so I went and did some leadership training. They told me to create an atmosphere of respect, honesty, caring, collaboration, cooperation and trust, this will in turn maximize the teams contributions to the organization.
BUT, How do I do that? It’s fine for all those at the top to tell me to create these things, but, I need to know how to do it. What do I say? What do I do? to get my team working together and with the other departments?
You know what I really want to do here? … I want to lead an organisation that has an environment that allows all team members to be fully functioning, highly involved, highly participative members of a group. Team members who are fully engaged and feel free to offer their ideas, opinions, suggestions, comments and problems, who are willing to share important information or data, and know that their ideas, information and expertise are valued and taken seriously.

I remember what is was like to be an employee, and I remember what it was like to have the leader listen to my ideas and suggestions. I even remember him telling me that the single most important element in the organisation’s atmosphere is the leader’s willingness and ability to listen with understanding to the contributions of all team members. The leader’s goal is not to influence or direct the group’s discussion to go a certain way, the leaders goal is to listen openly and truly hear the points of view of team members, even when team members ideas and opinions may differ remarkably from the leader’s own.

You know what I need? … I need training that will get my team members to express their opinions, ideas and feelings whether positive or negative in a non-blameful, respectful way. I want them to listen with understanding and acceptance without being judgmental. And, have them resolve conflicts with others so both sides get their needs met. I found it! … I found the training. Thank goodness it is offered to all businesses large and small. I went and learnt how to do all these things and so much more.

I came back and implemented what I had learnt straight away. When they observed me (the leader) listening to them with understanding, they began to listen to each other better. They actually become less defensive, more open, more clear, more articulate, and, something equally important happened. When conflicts arose, the team members were much more open to the other’s views and less intent on defending their own in a knee-jerk way.

What I have learnt is this ….. When team members experience an atmosphere in which their full involvement and participation is valued and they have the communication and conflict resolution skills they need, the business will be alive with more energy, more motivation, more commitment, more confidence and more coherence. The organization will prosper in both goodwill and higher productivity. This can be astounding.

The story that I have just shared with you is a common story among workers across all industries. Wouldn’t you agree? And, I’m sure you’ve experienced it to some degree!
If you are experiencing a similar situation in your own organisation and you need more information about this training, you can call or email
