The answer minus the questions

Everyone has a bad day... Or week. Sometimes you have a shitty month... But how do you turn it off. Everyone says cheer up NO ONE says how... So here's your answer NO questions!

Those closest to me know that last year I suffered from some serious depression. And all I did was talk about it. THAT'S THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO! I believe in the law of attraction. The law states that like attracts like. The simplest way to explain it is that your thoughts become the things in your life. You attract what you think about most and if all your thoughts are consistently on the things you hate... Everything you hate dominates you! It's kind of hard not to talk about what's wrong. BUT dwelling on what's wrong only gives you more issues.  

Or I could fall asleep...

There's so much you can do!!

When's the last time you jumped off a cliff? Oh never. Well that's no fun! I don't believe in everyones dream but I never discourage people. I think it's easier to live in fear than it is to take a risk. If you fail SO THE FUCK WHAT!? People fail all the time. No one remembers your failure after you succeed. No one who ever got it right got it right the first time and if they did they got something else wrong somewhere too. If we were meant to live life. Why not take the risks??? If you fail you'll have fun doing it!! Snooki got paid $32 thousand dollars to give a speech at Rutgers!! You think she lives in fear. NOPE!!! No one knew Jersey Shore would be successful but she's famous for being herself. Follow your heart. Live your dreams LOVE LIFE!! PRAISE GOD! Don't forget the last part.

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.

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!!

Challenge

There's this game I play with myself before making major decisions about my life. I say how will this effect your obituary? My obituary is like one of the most important things to me... Why? It's the last message you send to the world. When my great great great grandkids wanna know who I was or what I did they can google my obituary. My personal mission is to do something that impacts someone who is not in my family or my friend. Last night when I watched the Blind Side, I thought Leanne Toughy may never be remembered for being a great mother to her own children but she will be remembered for having a loving heart & accepting someone into her life that she had no reason to.
That's amazing. That's what life should be about, not your car or your house but about uplifting and inspiring. I lose sight of what's important but everytime I fall off course I realize it. Who do you really wanna be? Is there a defintion for you? Are you defined by your car & your clothes? Who are you really?
The challenge is to define yourself without material things... it's hard but try it. And you hate the defintion it's not too late to rewrite it!

The journey (a snippet)

In 07 something bad happened. Then in 08 I started my journey of self discovery which led me to books. It oddly started with me watching sex in the city every night. Carrie always said something that made sense. Like why is it that we ignore every perfect thing in life just because we don't have a boyfriend. My life is awesome but I want stunt having a boo would be cool. One night I'm flipping through the channels mind you this is my hobby. And I see Joel Osteen, had no clue who he was but he said something and I thought oh that cool. I listened to the whole show. Then I decided to read a book my friends had all been telling me to read. The Secret. My relationship with God and my learning about the law of attraction was one in the same. I started believing good things would happen and they did. I prayed about things I'd never prayed about before and things always fell into place. I'm human though I always try to make things into things when they're mostly nothing... in those cases I ask for forgiveness. I owrked my hardest to inspire everyone around me to dream big and follow their hearts. Some people just didn't wanna join me. Most people have no idea how positive I am lol that's sad. I get annoyed with complacent people and people who try too hard I make observations about things I don't like but in no way do I dwell on them.
