Thought Process

I'd like to call this Lesson #3:

Most people don't realize that the way they think is the way they live. I haven't always thought well. The thought process is what seperates those who are weak from those who are strong. Luck doesn't exist. I have friends who tell me I'm lucky. Not lucky, I am optimistic. Is it possible to be positive 24/7 maybe but not for me. I like to curse people out sometimes...
Back on subject, In 2007 I was introduced to the Law of Attraction, really the entire New Age section at the books store. When I started to realize that my actions were a result of things I thought, I realized I had no one to blame but me. Personal responsiblity is some stuff. Since changing my thought process I've gotten 2 jobs, 5 raises, a few new great friends, I'm never broke & I geniunely love life.
Most people will tell you that Christianity and the law don't go hand and hand but the only way I can explain the law is through the Bible "As a man thinks, so is he." Proverbs 23:7. The law is about only focusing on good things. The old people say "pray for the better and prepare for the worst"; to me that's saying God can't do anything the world is in charge. Sidebar: I'm spiritual NOT religious (religion divides people, I love everybody)

The rapper says he looks for miracles everyday (I helped him to change his thought process). So many people wake up everyday waiting for something to go wrong and then wonder why nothing good is happening. You get what your looking for and it may not be something great. Thoughts become things is the easiest way to put it. For example, people who always talk about things they hate or don't want. They aren't happy people, no one really wants to be around them and good things rarely happen to them. A positive thought process is HARD. Thinking that things will go wrong is most peoples default. Now I ask do what I did, think about where you are, think about where you want to be... I'm not there either. Point is 99.9% of people will tell you, "You can't make it". WHY on Earth would you be the other 0.01% and say "No I can't". If you can't believe in yourself, how can anyone else? It all starts with the thought process.
Examples to dwell on:

• A plane weighs 2 tons but it flys.. now 50 years ago if you told any "logical" person that they'd say never gonna happen.
• Walt Disney said "If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing was started by a mouse" And he also said "I could never convince the financiers that Disneyland was feasible, because dreams offer too little collateral"
• Billy Gates essentially built a fortune on 0s & 1s (binary)
• Apple wasn't cool in 1995, Steve Jobs started all over.. & now everybody has an iPhone

Do yourself a favor research anyone whose ever done anything worth being documented and the story will be the same, they failed 1,000,000 times but they knew one day it would pay off. They thought they would be successful. Every great thing you own, want, need or buy, started off in someones mind. You owe yourself a new thought process, you get all the new Jordans LOL!
But be warned thinking positive thoughts without positive action is pointless. "Dreaming instead of doing is foolishness, and there is ruin in a flood of empty words" -Ecclesiastes 5:7 (which ties us back to yesterdays lesson *pow*)
Since we're less than 10 days into 2010 it's not too late to change your thought proccess. The Milky Way is the limit.. or the end of the block you decide.

Preaching to the Problem

Dear educated negro,

You are the problem. And I'm preaching to the problem.

Love,

Me

I question what happened to this so called "Talented Tenth" over and over again. "We" were supposed to be the ones that lifted up the other 100 million, and somewhere... we fell off. I've been blaming my parents generation forever the 60s babies who were my age in the 80s were straight wack. MY generation is so consumed with self and impressing people that they can't do community service if a cameras not around or in the case of alot of girls I know they're trying real hard to be on line.. #shade! I volunteer & I'm not asking for a cookie, I donate BUT it's NOT enough.
Talking to my best friend yesterday, she expresses her disgust for the Blindside and such. Then I hit her with it.. We rarely argue but she needed to be hit. "We" as the better off, more educated say its a shame but never help. I don't know how many of you saw the Blindside but the whole relationship started because it was cold outside and LeAnn wondered why he didn't have a coat. Me personally if I would have seen that big black fool in shorts and a striped shirt I'd say "he on something its too cold, I mean why else would he have on shorts". I'm not compassionate enough to look at a black kid and see some good. Now I dare you to be honest with yourself, how often do you see the good in people you don't know?? Especially those you view as less than you. The greatest problem we have as the educated "middle class" is that we shun those who look like us but don't act like us.
Everybody wants to be mad at the "white man" when we aren't helping the black man. You talk solutions all day everyday but revolutionary speech is as pointless as virtual masturbation. I'm so tired of talking about what to fix. If you see a kid with no shoes, buy him some. If you see someone who looks down talk to them. The solution isn't a million man march. It's a million men mentoring a boy and teaching him to become a man instead of letting tv raise kids and then complaining about crime.
"We" run from the other kind. I'm not going to the hood. I hate ghetto people. These are all things I say daily weekly monthly. How am I helping? How are you helping?
I believe with my whole heart that Tyler Perry & Spike Lee would make a movie for every single black person who helped a black person outside their family succeed. Tyler Perry will produce anything.. Madea might be in it but hey.. you complained about the Blind Side.

So here's your solution: SHUT THE FUCK UP! Go help the kids down the street with their homework. Guys if you a young kid that you know isn't going the right way, tell him your story show him the way. Ladies, act like ladies and show the next generation of girls that they're more than their bodies. Stop turning away from people who look like you but don't act like you. Stop inviting me to speech on issues, invite me to work on issues. Don't map out a plan for action take action. Jesse Jackson been talking for years he ain't even organize the march at Jena Michael Baisden did. Talk is cheap. GO HELP!

Misery Pt 1

I absolutely feel a chick when she says she doesnt wanna go to hard when just meeting a dude, because it can scare him away. You need to atleast peep and see if the dude shares the same interest for you. Im not as much of an asshole as people think. Sometimes i just wanna tell people get the fuck, but i dont. If i have an interest in someone they know. Its nothing that i hide. I show you the attention you deserve, i actually try to get to know you, I actually ask for your time. My biggest pet peeve is people that go hard and text you or call 98x b4 you even answer them. Maybe im just weird or just trippin...but then again..nothing but the absolute extreme makes me post a blog. And if you follow me, all it takes is you reading my tweets or this blog to know what pisses me off...so WTF? anyway another strikeout.

Misery Pt 2

I know it's crazy BUT

I really think if I get Stacey Dash's nose, the world will love me.
Why do we love Stacey so much?  I don't understand either. Meanwhile she's gorgeous the end!

2010 started...

And then I went to church!
I missed church on New Years Eve, I was really really sad about this. Today I went to 6 p.m. service at a church I've never been to. ALONE. I had to my heart told me I had to. The message was amazing. Let me share...
She said there was a women she knew who loved getting her hair done and the lady got her hair done every week. Her financial situation changed so now she can only get her hair done every other week or once month. Then she said "Women in chemo don't have hair".
We always look at what we have and compare it to something greater. I hate my car but at least I'm not walking. We all need to learn to be more thankful for what we do have. The Secret says "how can you get anything you want if you aren't grateful for what you have?"
Then she went on to say that we don't see God because we focus on our own things so much. We place want in front of need and think that because we don't have all the material things we desire somehow God is failing us. When most of us have everything we need.
The title was "Can you see God now"
And I see God. I have a house, a car, a job, great family, great friends, I'm healthy & I'm becoming better daily... 2010!!
