Overview

Seven morning and evening practices to revolutionize your life, from the bestselling author of Each Day a New Beginning.



This small book can change everything if you let it. It's Up to You is based on the twelve principles in the author's Change Your Mind and Your Life Will Follow: tending to our own gardens, focusing on solutions not problems, letting go of preconceived solutions, changing our minds, acting instead of reacting, giving up judgments, giving up trying to control, discovering our own lessons, doing no harm, quieting our minds, treating every encounter as the holy, and discerning our mind's own truth.



It's Up to You invites listeners to do three simple things: meditate, pay attention, and make choices to change their lives-for a few minutes each morning and evening, one principle a week for twelve weeks. As we reflect on Casey's insight into the insidious ways we create misery or drama, try to impose will, and suffer needlessly, and as we follow her gentle prompts to make different choices, we begin to see that we can change just about anything in our lives by taking these small steps. As Karen Casey puts it, "Progress is guaranteed. Perfection isn't expected."

Read an Excerpt

Welcome to It’s Up to You, the companion book to Change Your Mind and Your Life Will Follow. It’s Up to You grew out of discussions with a number of people about how to take the ideas presented in Change Your Mind and apply them, incrementally, a week at a time. There are twelve weeks’ worth of messages, two for each day of the week: one for the morning and one to close the day, based on the specific principles contained in each of the twelve chapters.

My own thirty-two-year journey in Twelve Step rooms has taught me that all change is incremental. I have also learned that the willingness to change is the necessary first step anyone must take, or nothing changes at all. No one turns to a book like this one, or its companion book, unless she or he has felt blocked by old behavior patterns. The good news is, you have already shown your willingness to try something different, or you wouldn’t have picked up this book.

I am convinced because of the miracles that have happened in my own life that miracles will happen for you too. The shift in our way of thinking, a shift that makes everything more joyful and peaceful, can’t be avoided when we begin to apply the principles contained in this little book. Even applying one principle occasionally benefits us in ways we’d not imagined possible.

One day at a time, one week at a time, and life will become different. It will be more manageable, more productive, more purposeful. It will be more hopeful. And it will be more peaceful. That’s a promise I can safely make.

Now it’s time to begin. You may want to keep a notebook or journal to record your thoughts about the daily messages. Enjoy every step of the way. This is a journey you will treasure because of its simplicity, and it’s one that will affect you for the rest of your life.
