Who are you?

Let me ask  you some  questions. Who are you? Do you really know yourself? What is that makes you you? Do you like who you are? Do you like how you are in the world or in private?

If you are not sure how to answer those questions, then it maybe time to really ponder them. After that ask yourself is there anything you would like to change or are you content?

It is so hard to be an individual with individual ideas and feelings today. We play the conformity game at work to please our bosses and coworkers. and we play the game at home to please our friends and family.

Would they like you, love you and appreciate you with out the game?

Answer this on a scale of one to ten. one being really bad and 10 being great, how happy are you with

family?
career?
health?
finances?
leisure time?

And how focused are you on each of these?
scale of one to ten...

Next what benifits are you getting from your answers? Even if your answers were 1's 2's or 3's there is still a benifit. you may have to look a little harder to find it, or may turn it around.

As an example... if you are really unhappy with your finances, and you are always asking friends and family for money. but on the other hand your really happy with your family. the benifit is that it keeps you connected to them. Even if the curcumstances of the relationship are not ideal.

So the next part  is how can you be happy with both, a good relationship with friends and family and created a healthier relationship with your finances?

Some changes may need to be made so that everyone benifits, and that all areas of your life are in balance.

Don't think about

You can't think about what you don't want to think about without thinking about it. 

Huh? Break that down slowly. If I say don't think about chocolate. Your brain will actually think about it for just a split second, and for that split second you may really want that chocolate. But then I said don't think about, and now you are stuck, because you thinking about it. 

This hold true for unpleasant things too. If I say don't think about crime, you're going to think about crime. 

So keeping that in mind, if you are wanting prosperity in your life? Should you be thinking about the lack of prosperity? 

No. Why not? Because your brain will accuay focus on the lack if instead of the abundance of it. 

If you're trying to attract something into your life, then don't think about the lack of it, think about how much you would like to have. 
This is hie the jaw of attraction works. If you concentrate on the jack then that is what you attract is more lack. 

It's a matter of samantics. This is why diets fail. We end up putting our concentration on the lack, or on the foods  we shouldn't eat while dieting instead of the wonderful benefits we receive doing the diet. 

It's why work is a four letter word. If you like work, then great, but if you don't like work, then it's a drag. And you will just make yourself more miserable wishing you are some place else. 

So. Let's think about what we do want to think about. Let's concentrate on the good stuff, and have a happy abundant life.
