Tipsy Tuesday

For years I have been on a quest to face my fears and live life instead of being afraid of it, Neale Donald Walsh sent me the following and I appreciated the message this Tuesday's Tip is;


...that it is never safe to look into the future with eyes

of fear.



Edward H.Harriman said that, and he was right. Nothing

is fearful lest thinking make it so. I can honestly say that

probably 95% of the things I was afraid of, it turned out

I had no reason to be.



And even if the thing you fear happens...so what? Again,

95% of the time your world is not going to fall apart, your

life will not be in danger. So drop fear by the wayside.

Just... let it go. Then make way for a surprising tomorrow.

Happy, Fearless, Trails,

Danna

Happy Birthday Jacqueline, My Dear Friend!

On The Road Again

I am setting in my bed at 1:00 AM on what now is Tuesday, which makes me one hour late in submitting my "On the Road Again" segment.

Quick trip to Salina Sunday night, return to Park City Monday night! Yep still working on getting my house in order, so close, I am so close!

35 years of treasures have been sorted, touched 3 to 4 times and either thrown away, gave away or stored in a storage unit to be thrown away in a year from now when I become tired of paying the monthly fee.

Scott's in Reno so I had it all to myself, that is good and bad, good I got to discard many more things, bad I had to muscle it all myself.

Returning back to Park City alone I was quickly greeted by some furry friends, MICE! OMG I can't believe how frightened I am of mice!

Give me a thousand people to meet, greet, and public speak too, no problem. Live in the same house with roadents, FORGET IT!

I started setting out live traps because in the past I couldn't kill a fly, after seeing, hearing ,and being scared out of my wits by these quick, shit leaving varmants I have turned into a hunter!

As long as you stay out in your space and don't come into my space I won't hurt you, run across my jackets eye level as I go to put a coat away, I must take drastic measures.

I love this house nestled right in the wild, however when the wild moves in it makes me miss all the wild cats at the Salina home. I would rather step on cat crap outside than mouse crap inside. Oh well enough ranting, I keep telling myself this is just another fear I must face, and face it I will, as they say, and this too shall pass.

Well back to On the Road Again, this week I have a jammed packed week. Designing product on Tuesday, 2 business meetings on Wednesday, fly to Reno on Thursday, finish Snaffle Bit Futurity trade show on Sunday, fly to Texas on Monday to design boots and help with the new Lucchese line release for Denver Market 2010. After a 2 day stay in El Paso it's off to Ft. Worth to finish up NFR buying, then the big loop will bring me home to Park City for just a few days before I jet to California for additional training in Acuscope and Myopulse.

Busy, Busy, Busy, and Loving every minute of it, except for my new job as exterminator.

Harmonic Health

As you may know by now our family is excited to be involved with this outstanding new technology, Acusope and Myopulse, we offer treatments and training for any forward thinking individuals who wants alternatives to quicker healing and more healthy lifestyle. The following was taken off the Thorp Insistute Websits, John Thorp works with Destiny almost daily, working together creating solutions for a higher quality of lifestyle.

The educated public wants non-invasive and non-drug therapy, which is the hallmark of the use of the Electro Acuscope and Myopulse machines.

Dr. Anthony Nebrensky is the inventor of this technology, which received its FDA approval over 22 years ago. Nebrensky helped develop the Missile guidance chip technology as well as the development of electrical measuring devices like EEG’s and EMG's. His background as a physicist led him from missile guidance chip development to using that same technology to scan search and seek, like a smart missile. His technology works at a cellular level, finding the abnormalities of diseased or injured tissue in the human body. Injured or diseased tissue does not maintain a normal electrical conductance and blood flow as well as electricity follows the path of least resistance going around the damaged area instead of through it.

The Acuscope / Myopulse Machines, which are in-put as well as out-put devices find the abnormalities and then send out a corrective signal until the injured area is normalized electrically thus allowing blood flow into the area of pathology instead of going around it. This enhances the body’s ability to heal itself in a very accelerated manner.

Nebrensky theory was that if people are tested for abnormalities by using electrical devices like EEGs and EMG.'s the Acuscope and Myopulse micro-current electro therapy could bring the electricity patterns in the normal range thus helping the healing process of cells that had irregular electrical patterns.

Thorp states, ”The fountain of youth is at our fingertips whether we’re ready for it or not.“ The four Key letters are F. E. E. D.: Fueling the body correctly, Exercise, Electrify, and Detoxify. If one does these things there is no place for disease to manifest and it lessens the possibility of injury to occur.

We will have our machines set up and available for appointments at the high school rodeo this weekend at the Blackhawk Arena in Salina, Utah.

Your Higher Life Is Only a Thought Away

The following is a review of Wayne Dyers new book Excuses Begone by Nightingale Conant.

In Excuses Begone!, Wayne Dyer shines an insightful light on the habituated mind and on the significant and subtle ways we get in our own way when we want to experience change in our lives. He explains why letting your subconscious thoughts go unchecked has no chance of getting you where you want to be.

Then he offers an empowering alternative: the “excuses begone way of life.” He shows you, step by step, how you can actually change your brain chemistry and align your thoughts to a higher place where limits don’t exist. From there you can:

Recognize the truth that all things are possible
Discover why no excuse is worth defending ever
Live in the flow of universal harmony and peace
Train your mind and body to live without sickness and suffering
Align your thoughts with universal goodness and begin to live with contentment, gratitude, and awe
Awaken to new possibilities and your Divine magnificence

Many years ago I listened to Wayne Dyers audio book 10 Secrets to Success and Inner Peace, it simply changed my life. I began to put into practice his 10 step program, his latest work Excuses Begone offers a 7 step program to help us rid excuses that hold us back. Wayne Dyer is known as the father of inspiration, he has fathered me through many challenges, and given me information and inspiration to choose a different outcome.

Thanks Wayne, your books are Damn Good Stuff!

Tipsy Tuesday

"Regardless of where our economy is headed right now, you have the power and ability to create your own economy and your own results."

I read this and thought how true! The minute we start excessively worrying about anything we slow our progress down and waste time thinking about things we have no control over, hence missing opportunities to create that which we do desire.

When we made the decision to open Park City right in the middle of this big economic whatever you want to call it, I told sceptics I was working off my desires not their doubts. I turned off the television and stayed focused on what I wanted for myself and my business. I decided I could take advantage of it instead of it taking advantage of me. Learning to utilize your thoughts feelings and emotions to serve you is the key to success. I know I am a life study of constantly working at aligning those three elements, I am not perfect but I am better than I used to be.

Create your own Economy, my tip this Tuesday!

On The Road Again

Snaffle Bit Futurity time again, Scott heads off today to the Reno Livestock Event Center to set up our Burns Saddlery mobile unit, he and Lynn Folstad will set up and sell at one of the nicest trade shows of the year. We normally set up outside with trailers and tents and have experienced rain, snow, high winds and hot days, so this year we are moving inside the building.

Our new fall merchandise including all the newest styles of Lucchese Boots, and the latest high fashion leather jackets for men and women will get its unveiling at this show.

If you have attended the Snaffle Bit Futurity you know how fun and exciting it is to see the best competitors in the world of working cow horse vie for the most prestigious honor of the year, the buckle and boat load of money will be given out at the finals on Sunday October 4th. If you have never attended get your flight booked, it is a breathtaking, outstanding event. I have my flight booked, I will fly out to help Lynn and Scott the last 4 days of the show.

Scott is on the loneliest highway in America today, traveling alone down SR 50, I love that drive, no really I do! I will miss the drive and set up this year, amazing, for years I thought that would be a perfect scenario, now I am missing it, just a little bit.

Safe Glorious Travels Scott, see you in a week.

On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know...


...that what you found was meant for you to keep.



You know exactly what this means, so stop trying to

figure it out. This was not brought to you so that you

could throw it away. Or ignore it. Or pretend it is

not there.




Look at it. Grab it and look right at it. Hold onto it.

There is more there, much more, than you think.



You know exactly why you received this message

today.

This was sent to me by Neale Donald Walsh, I love his inspirational messages. This one made me think, I decided to pass it along so you could ponder what you should keep.

Rave Reviews and Recipes

"Of all the things that can have an effect on your future,
I believe personal growth is the greatest. We can talk
about sales growth, profit growth, asset growth, but
all of this probably will not happen without personal growth."
— Jim Rohn: Author and motivational speaker


Jim is right again, we grow into success' or failures, they are not just random events, no matter the game, winning isn't luck its where preparedness meets opportunity. Failure is the same, it is where unpreparedness meets opportunity. However, failure is certainly a component of success, it is the lesson we may need to observe and ask ourselves what went wrong and how could I have a better outcome. I have failed many times, it makes me think, it gives me the opportunity to change and do it different the next time.

If you have experienced success' lately know it is because of personal growth, embrace it, and continue working on you, if you have experienced failure, observe why, don't beat yourself up, give thanks that you now know how to improve, so when the next opportunity arrives, and it will, you will be prepared and ready for the success that comes with it.

Zen Horse

Training Tip of the Week:

By Clinton Anderson

Buddy sour horses.

Do you have a horse that behaves as long as he’s with his buddies, but as soon as he has to leave, he becomes hard to handle? The secret to overcoming this problem is to make the right thing easy and the wrong thing difficult. If you’re riding with a group of horses, use them as obstacles to trot and canter around. If your horse wants to get back to them, let him, and when he gets there, really put him to work by hustling his feet in and out and around all the other horses. Then take him 100 feet away (or less if you need a better starting point) and let him rest. Then take him back to his buddies and do the same thing. The objective is to get the horse to think that his buddies equal work. Make it hard where he wants to be and easy where you want him to be. With repetition, your horse won’t think his buddies are much fun anymore.

Great tip for parenting, make the right thing easy and the wrong thing difficult, who knew!!!

Happy Trails,

"If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work
on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to
work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us."
— Jim Rohn: Author and motivational speaker

Jim is so right, I have worked myself out of and into so many different positions. Each one helping me grow towards the next fun adventure. A year ago we acquired the Park City building and put together goals for an opening, through all the process' we went through we grew into the next.

Taking risks creates growth, it builds character and also emotional muscle, the rewards are numerous and the excitement is intense. I love goal planning, I have a section in my planner where I set goals and compile steps and completion dates, when you write down your goals and add steps towards the process it is amazing how fast you will obtain them.

It works every time. Think it, write it, add action, then kaboom, your wish, your goals are obtained.

My tip this Tuesday:

Write down your goals and the steps needed to obtain them, with deadlines, nothing like a deadline to get it done.

Happy Goal Setting,

Danna

Monday!!!

Where do the weeks go, we are almost to the 4th quarter of the year!

This week I am running the road between Salina and Park City trying to get the Salina house in order to sell, we built it in 1981 so of course there will dumpster loads of treasures.

28 years of accumulations, we remodeled it a couple of years ago and got rid of a lot, however we shifted way too much of it to the lower level, now we will be packing it all back up the stairs.

What do you do with sentimental stuff, antiques, family heirlooms, or as my husband calls it old shit. If its my stuff its old shit, and he has no problem if I throw it away, if its his old stereo, it can't be thrown away.

We love our new home, I am excited and a bit sad to sell our first home, we leave many wonderful memories in it and know someone else will love it as much as we did.

Happy Trails, Movin On,

Rylan Dan Crane was born 8 years ago today! Just like that I became a Grandma, Nana Danna is my self appointed name.

How blessed our family was the moment he finally made his entrance, 20 hours of labor and several hours of pushing later it was determined he was breech, emergency C section and finally we got to breath relief. Life finally came and how sweet it was, born two days after that horrible tragic day of 9-11-01. In my opinion, new life, gives hope and is the best things to overcome tragedy and death.

What an incredible young man he is, now I really do sound like a Nana! He is the hardest worker and least complaining person I have ever met. His abilities at such a young age amaze me, he being the only grandson and the oldest of our 5 grandchildren, makes him surrounded by one younger sister and 3 first cousin princess'. I feel so sorry for him when they all get together, it is remarkable how patient he is with them and their girly screaming.

Rylan, at 8 can drive a tractor all by himself, he can clean corrals, work the arena and race track. He will be a tractor driver for our barrel racing association before he is a teenager, is that legal? It is good child labor laws are not in affect in a family business.

Rylan Inspires Me, he makes me so proud, he has brought a new deepened love in my heart I never knew existed, as Scott says, it's the best job you'll ever have,(being a grandparent).

For once in 32 years, Scott, I agree:-)!

Have A Wonderful 8th Birthday Rylan, We Love You!
