What the hell is going on?
I don’t watch the news very often. It’s all negative and it’s biased. I had some friends over for the weekend and apparently they love to watch the news, so CNN here we come!
The first thing I see is an angry man throwing a shoe at the President of the United States of America. A few things strike me (no pun intended) as I watch this. First, this guy is a helluva good shot! He almost got Bush! And I have to give Ole George credit! He dodged that shoe like he’s used to having them shot at him constantly! Very impressive. I didn’t get to see if the Secret Service put him in a choke hold and gave him a nuggie, but I can only imagine.
Next we watched the news about the economy. Holy crap, talk about kiss your ass goodbye! Lay off’s in the hundred’s of thousands, the mortgage crisis wasn’t over yet and it was going to get worse, the top 3 auto makers are claiming that they will go out of business, Russia is sending war ships to Cuba, the US isn’t invited to the South America summit this year, my boy Blagojevich got arrested, and on and on. Holy crap, how can people watch this stuff all day long and feel good about themselves? I watched 45 minutes and wanted to kill something! How could all this be happening and I didn’t know about it? As I said earlier, I don’t watch the news…exactly for this reason. I could actually feel stress coming into my body after watching this shit. I started getting nervous, my foot started tapping, my stomach started to get into knots. I drive truck for a living (I own my truck) and I’m already nervous after seeing how cheap and unavailable the freight is, and this just made me nuts!
Times are tough, I cannot deny that. I feel the crunch and I’m sure you do too. My wife has been told today that her job is ending at the end of the year. I felt the stress again. Still do.
I’ve learned a lot about the Law of Attraction and lots of the other laws of the Universe. I love to listen to Abraham-Hicks, Mike Dooley, Joe Vitale and others. I have a profile on Facebook and I have met lots of other like minded people. This information has helped me out tremendously and I have learned much about myself and my capabilities.
Having learned all of this information, I know that I have two options. My first option is to keep listening to the news and having my health deteriorate to that of an 80 year old man and just let life do it’s thing to me and hope I end up in a place where I won’t have to eat out of a dumpster. I can let my life follow the negative and cross my fingers and hope that it all ends well and my wife and I don’t have to go on welfare!
Or…I can take this knowledge that I have received and try it! I am the creator of my existence. I will decide what is going to happen and do whatever it takes to make the life that I choose come to fruition. I won’t listen to the news or the naysayers, I won’t listen to those that will try to avert me from my destination. I will succeed!
These are my options. The easiest option is the first one. Just be a follower, do what the other followers are doing, complain about the economy and everything wrong with the country. I can be pissed off all the time and not take any responsibility in my life, blame everyone and everything.
The second option is much more difficult. I actually have to take responsibility for my life and where I am now in my life. I have to take some action to achieve my goals. I have to keep concentrated on the end result and do whatever it takes to get there. Lot’s of work. Whew! If I am truly honest with myself, it really isn’t difficult at all. It’s easy. Plus I know the results before I get started.
So my friends, I choose to turn off the news and do it my way! I have lots of people that are interested in helping me achieve my results as opposed to those that choose to follow option 1 and try to tell me how I’m going to fail. I will succeed! According to the Law of Attraction, it’s a given as long as I ask, believe and am willing to receive and am willing to do the work to get there. Let’s see what happens!
What are you going to do?
