How can I do what I love to do for more people with less work and for a better price?
If you cannot thinking of anything, just keep thinking. This is a very important question. It is the question, if answered and acted upon, that makes people Millionaires, even Billionaires with a Big M and B. It is the “The Million Dollar Question”, start thinking about it.
More you think about it…more you bring about it…your brain will start seeing things differently out there and you will start acting and behaving aligned with your thoughts, and will get the results expected.
I REGARD MY BODY AS GOD’S TEMPLE. I do not tear down my body with destructive foods, drink, substances or thoughts. I invigorate my physical being and thereby my spirit with a healthy diet, restful sleep, moderate exercise and positive thoughts.
Awareness and self-discipline are two of the virtues of health. Are you truly aware of what you put into your body and why? Are you truly aware of your words and thoughts and the effects they have on your body? If not, self-discipline through awareness must be developed to overcome the mindlessness with which you eat, drink and act. I am continually struck by Napoleon Hill’s analysis of food and drink:
“Eating a meal should be a spiritual experience. The mood and frame of mind you are in when you eat has a direct effect on the benefit or harmful result you will receive from your food.”
Be aware of what you are eating. Enjoy your meals and the nourishment they bring. Proliferate their benefit by enlightening yourself with them, not by simply and mindlessly eating or drinking them.
The same holds true for your thoughts and words. Be aware of your words and thoughts. If you have a negative thought or use negative words, eliminate them immediately. If not, you will develop a negative habit of not only thinking, but of interpreting everything. Your mind, and thereby your body, can only be immune to negative thoughts, words and consumptions for a short time before destructive patterns begin to develop in your body; then illness occurs.
Treat your body as God’s as well as your own. Health is one of the foundations of Wealth.
WISDOM FOR TODAY:
I am aware of the substances I put into my body and the words and thoughts I use. I have the self-discipline to treat my body as God’s temple by eating healthy foods and thinking positive thoughts.
One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a
trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son
how poor people live.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what
would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip, the father asked his son,
“How was the trip?”
“It was great, Dad.”
“Did you see how poor people live?” the father asked.
“Oh yeah,” said the son.
So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?” asked the
father.
The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they
had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and
they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the
stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and
they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have
fields that go beyond our sight.
We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We
buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us; they have
friends to protect them.”
The boy’s father was speechless.
Then his son added, “Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor
we are.”

Too many times, we forget what we have and concentrate on what we don’t have. What is one person’s worthless object is another person’s prize possession. And what is a prized possession may pale in comparison to true wealth. It is all based on one’s perspective.
Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for all the bounty we have instead of worrying about wanting more. Take joy and appreciate every single thing you have, especially your friends!
Abundance is there if we only notice it in our lives. Then slowly, we change our mindset from lack and limitation to unlimited.
We live in a very interesting time. Who would have imagined that some of the largest financial institutions in the United States would crash into bankruptcy? Who would have imagined that the proclaimed world super power would be so disliked, and in many countries, it would be blamed for all the financial transition occurring?
Much of the media is pumping fear and economic scare news into the airwaves daily. Likewise, I can only imagine those fond of mystical traditions and Mayan predictions are preparing for the end of the world.
These are definitely times of great change. Eric Hoffer stated, “In times of change, the learners will inherit the earth while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to succeed in a world that no longer exists.”
A similar thought comes from a fairly well-known quote from Einstein, “The problems we face today cannot be solved from the same level of thinking that created them.”
Each of us, individually and collectively, stands on the precipice of great opportunity if we choose to seize it and take advantage of it. But to do that, we must learn from our past and think, feel and act differently as we move forward to create our future.
I promise you that while challenges and tough times may have an effect upon us, they do not control us. Unless of course you let them. You, like me, know that there are going to be those who barely survive in these times… And likewise, there are going to be those who thrive. Which one you’ll be is entirely up to the strategy you choose in times of stress and challenge.
Have you ever noticed that there are those unique few who seem to always succeed no matter what life throws their way? Well, I’d like to help you be one of them if you’ll let me.
Over the rest of the program, I’m going to be giving you some insider strategies and secrets to using the Laws of Attraction, as well as several of the other laws of the universe. And if you use them, I promise—in fact, I guarantee—you can make whatever challenges you may be having right now work to your advantage.
First thing you must realize is that it’s not about a lack of resources in our world… There are plenty of resources. It’s about resourcefulness. If you’re looking for outside situations to shift and save your day, then you’re looking in the wrong place. You can’t always control the waves in life… But you can learn to surf.
The first step is to take control of what I call your “3 for 3″ strategy… We’ll talk a lot about this one. Your thoughts, feelings and actions are what drive all behavior and results. And to create anything you desire in life, you must go “3 for 3.”
So it starts with being honest with yourself… really honest. If you’re listening to all the news right now and thinking and feeling fearful things… Those thoughts and fears are vibrations in your energy field that are causing you to act in fearful ways. If it doesn’t make you think and feel good, why are you watching it? You may think you need to be informed—maybe—but you certainly don’t have to be inundated.
As a first step to changing your results, you must change the input you’re placing into your mind and body on a regular and daily basis. Think about if you allowed garbage to stack up inside your home… How nice would it be in short order? Trash needs to be contained and taken out to the curb as soon as possible.
So make a commitment right now that you’re either going to eliminate or at least minimize the negativity coming into your body and home for the next week. And simultaneously, you’re going to take the same time you used to waste on fear media and replace it with something that makes you feel good. It can be a personal development book, a movie that makes you think and use your brainpower, even a comedy—but something that feels like a positive investment in your life.
It sounds so simple, but please remember, energy flows where attention goes. As you shift your attention, you’ll be amazed at how quickly your life begins to change. You’ll be glad you did.
To your continued wealth and happiness,
