Treasure Map Massacre
Treasure Map Tips
- Don’t make it too big.
- Know what you want.
- Don’t make it too big.
What I learned since starting the Treasure Map project:
- I’m 75% sure I made this map just to have something to blog about.
- Make that 99% sure.
- No enthusiasm = no magic = no way it’s going to work.
- The map being “in my face” all the time, I ended up
not “seeing” it = not effective. - I love my fake brick wall and its graffiti. I missed it.
- Huge house with a huge studio = don’t care for that anymore.
- Even if I’m now officially a bum, I’m a classy bum — I still want the Mmmm stuff.
- Bored with a project = drop it!
- The things I strongly desire are constantly in my thoughts,
so the visualization is also constant.
Mentally dragging this Treasure Map / ball and chain for 10 months had me thinking BIG TIME — excellent!
Since I didn’t know exactly what I wanted, I came to realize that it was because I didn’t know exactly who I was — aha!
These days, I’m practicing being my true self.
Viva la vida bum.

I understand your thing for brick. Mine is terracotta. Just look at my back yard.
I missed something with the treasure map though :-/

Hey Donald!
I absolutely love terracotta myself. But don’t understand what you’re talking about when you say you missed something with the treasure map… ???

Right on! If it ain’t working, trash it. I think you’re right, you sort of have to know what you want before it makes sense… and some one else’s method isn’t necessarily right for you.

Exactamundo, Marilyn.
And I’ve found another method… coming soon

Okay, this makes perfect sense. I too started on a vision board many months ago, and couldn’t get into it. The thing is that I’m also a very visual person, but that everything I desire is very clear in my mind – transferring that to paper was proving very difficult (magazines weren’t doing it for me!).
I can’t wait to hear about your new method, though if there’s one thing I’ve learned from this post, it’s that you have to do it YOUR way.
The other thing I’ve learned is that you’re such a smart woman – to know what you want, you have to know who you are. Perfect!
Since I’m having a mid-mid-life crisis (?), knowing who I am is something that’s been on my mind. Are you going through the same thing? Or have you been through that? How did you pull through it?
Luv to you, my beautiful artistic, gorgeous soul-momma-mate on the other side of the world xx

Oh, and just wanted to say, I LOVE that wall too. (honestly, I was sad when I saw it was going to be covered up!).
When I build a house, I’m having one in my rumpus room – and inviting all my friends to add bits to it!

Hey Lovely Tracey
Mid-mid-life crisis, eh? Oh how I wish we could sit down, face to face, and have a drink… a toast to life, its mid-mid- and all other crisisses in between that help make our trip on Earth so exciting!
What I’m going through these days is simply — though it takes a lot of work — becoming who I was when I started out in this life.
The cliché “full circle” is actually happening and I’m realizing where I became untrue to myself. For the past month, I’ve been figuring out how to fix that and getting used to living according to my true self.
So it’s mostly getting rid of old patterns and discovering the real me. Fun!!!
As to how I pulled through it, there’s no magic recipe. It took me all these years to finally understand that I have to be who I am and stop trying to please everyone around me. Stop being so critical, such a perfectionist, so hard on myself. It’s the good ol’ “leap of faith” — diving into my soul, bathing in the Light, and soaring back up to live a happy, loving, creative life.
Let’s talk… SOON!
Love and more love, always,
Mudd a.k.a. Happy Oza

P.S.: And Tracey, my new Treasure Map / Vision Board / Wish List will be on the “etc.” page of my website. Every time I want to take a break and “visualize,” I’ll simply go to that page and slowly scroll through what I want to manifest for myself. It’s worth giving it a try… will see if it works for me.
