“Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too.” – Will Smith

Disrespect, hatred and ill will have been around since the beginning of time.

Respect, love and goodwill have also been around since the beginning of time.

History has proven that the latter has always trumped as it is anchored with tolerance.

There has been an antidote for disrespect, hatred and ill will for many, many years.

These people took this antidote every day of their lives and changed the world for the better.

They are Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln and Mother Teresa to mention a few.

Antidote?

Forgiveness.

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used to create them.” - Albert Einstein

I live in a body. I am not my body. The Body is a mass of molecules in a high speed of vibration. In fact, there are approximately 11 million kilowatt hours per pound, potential energy locked up in the electrons of the atoms of your body. And everyone is walking around saying . . .“I’m so tired and just dragging my . . .”

Emotionally charged ideas that are either positive or negative create a frequency in your body that causes a vibration. Your body moves into vibration according to your emotion. That’s why I always say managing your ego, emotion and reaction to the best of your ability avoids fallout.

Feeling is a word; we invented, to describe the conscious awareness of the vibration that our mind and body is in. 

How do you feel?

I feel great. I feel crappy. I feel lonely. I feel happy. Any of these statements and more creates this vibratory scenario mentioned above. Our responsibility is to be vitally concerned and very diligent in recognizing the kind of ideas we are emotionally involved in. It’s the vibration that the body is in that determines how the body acts. The body’s behavior patterns or actions are being caused by the kind of ideas in the sub-conscious mind that doesn’t have a clue of what is real or imagined. The subconscious mind simply carries out the marching orders.

Most people think the way that they have been conditioned to think. So think before you seriously think about what you’re thinking about. Take it off autopilot and move it into design-pilot. In other words, be very clear about what you want, right down to the last detail of your picture, as your subconscious mind does not have a sense of humor. Repeat a prosperity affirmation daily.  Make prosperity a habit. Let go of your past and embrace the future. There is absolutely nothing that you can do by regurgitating the past over and over again. Focus on the future, as you are able to devote your present moment energy towards that end.

“Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Appreciate your friends. Continue to learn. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.” - Mary Anne Radmacher

It doesn’t have to be perfect. Life does not have to be perfect, as robots and clones do not have any fun whatsoever.

You don’t have to dissect, compartmentalize or analyze everything to death.

You are exactly where you need to be at this juncture in your journey.

Earl Nightingale stated, "Success is really nothing more than the progressive realization of a worthy ideal. This means that any person who knows what they are doing and where they are going is a success. Any person with a goal towards which they are working is a successful person."

Take some quiet time and discover your worthy ideal and the rest will take care of itself.

“God’s gift to you is more talent and ability than you will ever use in one lifetime. Your gift to God is to develop and utilize as much of that talent and ability as you can, in this lifetime.” - Steve Bow

Win for life and do not continue any longer to listen to the negative X factor voice on your shoulder that tells you that you’re stupid, fat, worthless, ambitionless, poor, helpless, dependent, lazy and that you would never amount to anything.

If you do, ultimately, you will become faceless. The end result is no purpose, no mission, no self-worth and no money. This is not you and you clearly know this.

You need to kick that X factor to the curb once and for all. That unique person inside of you will thank you for the rest of your life. Do not employ rationalization any longer, as this is a tool intended to tell lies to your conscious mind. This is also a great defense mechanism for anyone that is in a dead-end job, dead-end relationship or dead-end purpose in life.

You always get what you tolerate.

Do not tolerate it any longer, as we are all a work in progress.

Think of David.

David was stuck in a hunk of marble for 40 years prior to emerging as a 17 foot giant in 1504 under the very capable, creative hand of Michelangelo.

“You never change your life until you step out of your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.” - Roy T. Bennett

In order to create confidence we need to dismantle the picket fence mentality.

Many beautiful people have a picket fence mentality that has been passed down through the generations.

They absolutely know where their boundaries are located.

There are generally four solid corner posts that maintain their fence brilliantly. These are fear, security, image and purpose.

Don’t even think about moving their fence as this causes incredible stress and frustration in their lives. They are going nowhere fast. They don’t know that they don’t know.

They would love to attempt to change something in their lives but fear always blocks their path with anxiety, scarcity and every other debilitating and toxic entity. That corner post goes down very deep into their deeper minds and it is superbly entrenched.

The right side of the picket fence mentality is security. They believe that as long as the picket fence is sturdy, it will provide them with stability and longevity.

Security does not exist.

It is an idea that is outdated and purposeless as it prevents people from stretching from their picket fence mentality. Media and everyone else on the planet will pitch their silver bullet, as they believe it will provide people with the security that they are seeking.

You are your own silver bullet.

“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.” - Bob Moawad

We live in interesting times. There are all types of rants out there both love and hate.

Open platforms provide people all over the world with the opportunity to dialogue, share information and images. This is incredibly positive and amazing especially for so many people that are separated by distance.

History tells us that the Wild West ended in 1895.

However, when individuals or groups purport themselves as judge and jury without regard for the rule of law, the outcome is disastrous for all concerned.

As stated earlier, the physical eye always triggers perception. However perception without acute awareness and based solely on conjecture is not sound.

When we all can take full responsibility for all our thinking, all our feelings and all our actions only then is the world ours.

The real question to ask is what legacy are we leaving our children?

“You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” - Dr. Seuss

Love is the unconditional effort to appreciate and respect another human being intellectually, emotionally, spiritually and physically. There are no boundaries, restraints or white picket fences that contain this thing called love. It is similar to a beautiful rose in full bloom.

One cannot force the unfoldment of this four-letter word love, as with the rose, the unnatural unfoldment causes its demise. Those in life that are blessed and fortunate to experience this unconditional effort called love are happy and fulfilled.

To expect someone to fall in love with you and not understand the latter is an exercise in futility. One must love oneself first before they can even begin to love anyone else.

As stated earlier, in order to accomplish this, one must know thyself. This is the ultimate beginning of awareness and understanding that leads towards the true meaning of love that is expressed emotionally and physically.

Knowing thyself begins to clear the path towards greater unfoldment of our talents, aspirations, understanding, forgiveness, personal freedom and everything else that is desired intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, physically and financially.

“Negativity is cannibalistic. The more you feed it, the bigger and stronger it grows.”- Bobby Darnell

“It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” - Epictetus

Once an event has taken place there is absolutely nothing that you can do to alter it. However, you are fully in control of what happens to you emotionally after the event. Your thinking at this point creates your circumstances.

In order to release negativity or non-productive thinking release the event or individual with the HSPP factor. This is the script and it works perfectly if you are serious about releasing the negativity. The universe is always listening.

 “I absolutely release (name of individual or event) to (his/her/its) highest good of happiness, success, prosperity and peace of mind.”

The latter sounds unimaginable in an algorithmic, digital world however the universe always listens attentively. There is a cause and effect of every single word that is transmitted.

"Honoring the sacrifices many have made for our country in the name of freedom and democracy is the very foundation of Veterans Day." - Charles B. Rangel

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.  At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them." – Laurence Binyon

Today is a day when we pause and reflect on the personal sacrifices of the many great men and women who served their country in order to protect and defend our freedom and democracy.

Thank you to all these brave men and women who served selflessly for their country.

We will remember them in our thoughts and prayers.

“The lizard brain is the reason you're afraid, the reason you don't do all the art you can, the reason you don't ship when you can. The lizard brain is the source of the resistance.” - Seth Godin

Anytime that there is an event in our lives that does not fit into our compliant “data bank” the Amygdala is aroused. At this point all hell can break loose unless we understand how to short circuit the connection between emotions surrounding the event and the Amygdala. Who is in control? Understanding your physiology places you in the driver’s seat.

There is a great YouTube video that demonstrates this quite efficiently by Paul Durban. This video, The Lizard Brain is located at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAoFPIHBu6U

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” - Albert Einstein

Gratitude opens the funnel of life and unleashes the creative process in each one of us. For many, it has been dormant for many years. We fail to appreciate all the gifts that have been given to us unconditionally. Essentially, we take them for granted. When this happens many of the present moment gifts go by the boards unnoticed.

However, gifts of gratitude are all around us. From time to time, we might have uneventful days that are filled with the “what if” questions. Suddenly as if from left field someone pops up with a lung machine or other handicap that causes us to wake up and appreciate what we already have in our lives.

The physical eye always triggers perception. However perception without acute awareness and based solely on conjecture is not sound.

Conversely, the God Power of Gratitude consciousness allows us to receive even more blessings in our lives. These blessings do appear in the form of disappointments, failures or unfortunate events. They are in disguise.

Utilizing this spirit of gratitude will create the true blessings without the disguise as the inner eye of understanding supersedes our physical eyes.

"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life." -Steve Jobs

As you embark on this spectacular journey and win for life, create and develop a mindset so different from everyone else. You will begin to think differently.

You will not allow the X factor conditioning to pollute your mind with thoughts of lack and limitation.

You embrace your day with piranha activity. When everyone is starting to relax into the status quo mode you pick up steam and energize towards your finish line. Understand that success is selfish, as it doesn’t wait for anyone or anything. It is rude, impolite and has no manners. It will take any path but you must have nerves of steel, the patience of Job and the intellect of Musk. More importantly, you must be you and no one else.  

Success waits for no one.
