"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.” - Marianne Williamson

The last piece of a puzzle is evasive at times, almost as if it was an error by the manufacturer.

How do you feel when you get to the end of a ginormous puzzle and finally have the opportunity to place the last piece into its place?

It’s absolutely exhilarating.

It’s magical.

It provides you with a feeling of absolute completion.

It’s a fait accompli.

Discover your purpose and you will create that amazing feeling.

Your purpose unveils the final piece of the puzzle that provides the GPS that you need in order to navigate towards your amazing results.

In essence, it’s all about defusing potentially, explosive, destructive, and meaningless drama by managing the ego, reaction, and emotion from the mix to the best of our ability.

The power for us is greater than the power against us.

Moreover, the power within us is greater than any other external, invasive power.

Be it a pandemic or any other foreign entity.

You are the final piece.

Therefore, sow seeds of faith, tolerance, respect, understanding, trust, and equality for all.

As you do this, these seeds will fall in good soil and your purpose will be intensified and realized so all may benefit.

After it’s all said and done, it’s still a beautiful world filled with many amazing, beautiful, and life-giving people.

Don’t allow the few seeds that never fall on the ground infiltrate your glorious mind.

Williamson’s quote above encourages all of us to do all that we can to invoke positive attitudinal change.

It begins with us, one person at a time and one day at a time.

The best is yet to come.

“To be or not to be? That is not the question. What is the question? The question is not one of being, but of becoming. To become more or not to become more. This is the question faced by each intelligence in our universe.” - Truman G. Madsen

To be is to simply exist.

To becoming is to live and continually grow and nurture not only oneself but as many people as possible in this lifetime.

Who are you becoming?

Sometimes all it takes is a book, a word, or a gesture of kindness that propels one into this becoming frequency.

Internalize this frequency with feeling and emotion and as a result, this new level of living will arise within.

You now feel alive and vibrant.

You now see your world with an inner eye of understanding that is far superior than your physical eyes.

The explosive emotion in your mind, body, and spirit begins to create a volcano of aliveness within.

The blood flowing through your body is electrified with passion and purpose.

Yes, your becoming just awoke and triggered an explosive psychological impact throughout your entire being.

The status quo in your life just died and you flipped the switch in your brain from default to design.

Once an individual is plugged into this becoming frequency, it is difficult for him or her to unplug.

This frequency pulls one deeper and deeper into a vortex of continual powerful and proactive change.

Your self-talk begins to change dramatically and you continue to grow exponentially one day at a time.

As more people worldwide embrace this becoming continuum, attitudes shift dramatically towards equality for all regardless of race, color, religion, creed or any other descriptor.

Inclusion and diversity are no longer just words.

Our time today is so fragmented with all types of distractions that sometimes, we all lose sight of what is the most fundamental and important component of this thing that we call life.

Lose all the distractions that take you away from what is really important in your life.

Truman G. Madsen was absolutely correct in saying, “The question is not one of being, but of becoming. To become more or not to become more.”

“I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don’t intend to waste any of mine.” - Neil Armstrong

In one of Darren Hardy’s, Darren Daily segments, he described one of six factors that contribute to longevity of life.

It is connection.

“Finding and sharing belongingness with the right group of like-minded people” - Darren Hardy

According to Jim Rohn, you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.

You are not average.

You were created for greatness and longevity.

Proverbs 9:11 - “For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.” - KJV

So, who are your five, fave people that you hang around with on a regular basis?

Do they support and strengthen you in good or bad times?

The authentic ones usually show up when the s . . . hits the fan. The other ones are long gone.

Choose your inner circle wisely.

As of April 2020, there were 3.81 billion users on various social platforms.

Connecting with people is awesome but seeking validation outwardly is counterproductive.

Work from the inside out otherwise you will always be dependent on some external force in order to fill the void.

Validation begins at the core.

As you begin to redefine your inner circle, criticism will bombard you from people who were supposed to be your friends or even loved ones.

As you begin to gain momentum with your quest for authenticity, the same people will fade into the sunset.

So here it is.

You are the best version of the five people you choose wisely and spend the most time with.

Congratulations.

You are now on the journey of living your best life.

“You don’t have control over how you die, but you do have control how you live.” - Darren Hardy

There will always be lovers and haters.

All you have to do is look at some of the media or social media pimps that are spewing hate in society today.

Everyone is attempting to pitch his or her slant on any topic that is foremost in everyone’s mind.

The depiction of what is happening is their claim to the silver bullet.

What do you say to them?

Blessings and good will. 

Kill them with kindness.

Yes, you’ve heard it many times before.

Everyone on the planet claims that they have the silver bullet.

Regardless of the subject matter, they absolutely claim that the silver bullet lies within their product, service, or message.

Let's stop this nonsense immediately.

The silver bullet does not lie within their product, service, or message.

Rather, the silver bullet lies within each and every one of us.

The silver bullet lies within you.

Yes!

You!

However, to access the silver bullet one must cut very deep into the core of their human personality in order to realize their potential.

These amazing people that cut to their core, realize that their true potential is not in finding themselves but rather in creating themselves.

These people are not impervious to fear but have found the inner strength within that crushes fear or any other invasive and toxic entity from their own personal silver bullet.

These people are the silver bullet.

Self-reliance, self-motivation, self-discipline, and every other self-entity are already within you.

You are the silver bullet.

Certainly there are a lot of great books and programs in the marketplace however the silver bullet lies within you.

Awaken and unleash that wonderful, imaginative, and unstoppable you and the world is your oyster.

You are a walking supercomputer greater that any machine that has been or not yet invented.

No machine ever can even begin to touch the magnitude and power of the human mind.

Incredible?

So look in the mirror.

You just found your silver bullet.

Your psychological armor now is impenetrable.

“There’s a small fly burning out the last of its short life’s energies in a futile attempt to fly through the glass of a windowpane. The whining wings tell the poignant story of the fly’s strategy — try harder. Across the room, ten steps away, the door is open. Ten seconds of flying time and this small creature could reach the outside world it seeks. With only a fraction of the effort now being wasted, it could be free of this self-imposed trap. The breakthrough possibility is there. It would be so easy.” - Price Pritchett P.H.D.

This book by Price Pritchett is a must read for anyone wanting to grow and get better intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, physically and financially.

https://www.pritchettnet.com/product/you2

At times, we are all like that fly on the windowpane.

We work harder, longer and more persistent but nothing seems to change the result.

Why is this?

Our parents, grand parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, and everyone else in our early life did the best that they could do with what they had at the time. We love them and respect them for what they attempted to instill in our fragile minds as children.

In spite of this and for whatever reason, we were taught to focus on present circumstances.

Present circumstances are just that, present circumstances.

Present circumstances fly through the space of time at a gazillion miles an hour.

However, our prehistoric brain has taught us that they are here to stay and we should focus on them intently.

So what do we do?

We dwell on the present image until it is firmly entrenched in our psyche.

We’ve all been there and done that.

There are two camps of thought, the dwellers and the movers.

Which one are you?

The dwellers love to dwell on the present circumstance and try to figure out all the possible equations regarding the why, what when, where, how etc.

Some dwellers are continually dwelling on the circumstance for days, months and sometimes years and never let go of it.

On the other hand, the movers move on past the present circumstance.

They realize that it is real and personal but do not allow it to immobilize their future efforts.

These people understand that in order to move forward, they must process it, forgive and release it to the universe.

As a result, their psychological house no longer has this tenant holding them hostage for any length of time.

In some cases where people have developed these fine tuned skills, they release the circumstance in a matter of minutes.

Movers don’t want to waste their valuable time on nonproductive energy.

They want their thoughts, feelings, actions, and ultimate results to be purposeful and fulfilling.

Don’t be that fly on the window unless you are bent about your own psychological demise.

“There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” – William Shakespeare

There is a magnetic field that surrounds you 24/7 and 86, 400 seconds of each glorious day.

You are an electromagnetic being emitting a frequency.

Only those things that are on the same frequency as the one you are emitting can come into your experience.

Light travels at a speed of 300,000 km/s.

Thought energy travels at a speed of -300,000 km/s.

In order to change your vibration, you must alter your thinking.

As you alter your thinking, you instantly move into a higher frequency.

Henry Ford also stated the above in these words, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't – you're right.”

The following is an image of an electromagnetic field that surrounds a human body.

BIOLECTROGRAPHY OF THE HUMAN BODY

SEMYON KIRLIAN PHOTOGRAPHY (circa 1939)

So let’s reduce it to the ridiculous.

What do you want to attract?

Pain, misery, lack, limitation, uncertainty, despair, hate, and so on.

Of course not!

How about these words?

Love, joy, peace, happiness, respect, acceptance, and so on.

Understanding that you have a magnetic field that surrounds you and using it effectively is your greatest defense from invasive, toxic thoughts.

We all attract what we contemplate.

Choose your thoughts carefully and discard the random thoughts of lack and limitation.

One of the natural laws of the universe states this clearly.

The Law of Vibration

 Everything vibrates and nothing rests. Vibrations of the same frequency resonate with each other, so like attracts like energy. Everything is energy, including your thoughts. Consistently focusing on a particular thought or idea attracts its vibrational match.

How to apply it?

Focus on what you want instead of what you don’t want.

The greatest gift that humanity has been endowed with is the ability to choose.

Choose wisely.

Your mind, body, and spirit will thank you abundantly.

“The future belongs to brands that do more than play lip service to real dialogue and recognize that their customers want them to believe in something.” — James Murdoch

Currently there is a lot of talk and action about 500+ major business players removing their advertising dollars from a giant platform.

It is no surprise to anyone.

Professing honorable community standards and not adhering to them is simply lip service.

The Giant’s stated corporate purpose:

“To give people the power to build community and bring the word closer together”

Ultimately lip service brings down the giant.

What was intended to connect humanity in all corners of the globe has now disengaged people with hatred, disrespect, intolerance, and everything else that falls into this camp.

Why is it out of control?

Imagine anyone on the planet that is practicing law, medicine, or any other professional entity without any regulatory board or licensing.

What about no longer having to license vehicles or individuals?

The list goes on and on.

The result?

It would be a free for all and a recipe for anarchy.

People all over the world have experienced the giant’s wrath of perpetuated hatred and intolerance.

In many ways this typifies the David and Goliath story.

The giant’s guess today is that all these major business players will be back but not comprehending that their 5 smooth stones in the form of billions upon billions of advertising revenue places him in jeopardy.

This giant is betting on the feeder’s lack of will to stop the feeding and ultimately restore the status quo.

What’s the solution?

Stop feeding the giant way past the 30 days and watch it come tumbling down like a huge building that is imploded.

Hopefully, the giant will wake up and prevent the impending implosion.

“Tempest-tossed souls, wherever you may be, under whatsoever conditions ye may live, know this-in the ocean of life the isles of Blessedness are smiling, and the sunny shore of your ideal awaits your coming. Keep your hands firmly upon the helm of thought.” - James Allen

These words were written 103 years ago and are truer today than ever.

Unprecedented times, unprecedented thinking, and unprecedented events spur the following.

Imagine what you could really do with your life.

If you’re reading this right now, you know exactly where you are intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, physically and financially at this juncture in your life.

You may be at the crossroad of life contemplating whether to take the X in the road or the Y road that leads to new and different possibilities never before experienced.

The X represents where you are currently in all five areas of your life and the Y represents where you would like to be.

The red colored section prior to the fork represents a decisive moment.

If this resonates with you, consider this reflective opportunity to ponder the next 3-5 years of your most important journey, your life.

One of the least utilized intellectual factors today is imagination.

Not utilizing this incredible entity paves the way either for a life of existence or a life worth living.

Find a quiet place and answer the following questions while this arrangement of Pure Imagination that I recently recorded plays in the background.

https://youtu.be/pOgTEGymawc

Some people will never take the time to do this however those that do, reap all the rewards that would otherwise evade them.

What is your purpose?

Your clearly defined purpose fuels your passion, commitment, and determination to press onward regardless of present circumstances.

Why do you want this?

The motivating factor that lies behind this question is only intrinsically unveiled. If it is externally driven, it will eventually fade into the sunset.

How do you intend to manifest and bring this to fruition?

This is the most challenging question for some people.

If they don’t clearly have the how, they immediately get stuck in their tracks.

97% always ask, “How am I going to do this?” 

Asking the how derails all possibilities that might exist.

Don’t ask the how!

Ever!

Do not be deceived by the autocratic nature of how you are going to achieve your hearts desire, as this controlling force will crush any inspiration towards oblivion.

The universe has big eyes, big ears and laser focused attention what you ask for good, bad or indifferent every single day of your life.

If you’ve made it to the end of this blog, you have already made a commitment to yourself.

Congratulations, as the best is yet to come for you.

“Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.” — Fred Rogers

So what immobilizes, derails, or prevents you from growing intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, physically or financially in your attirement years?

It’s high time that you stand your ground, state your case, and press on with your life that is who you really are at the core of your being.

You have so many untapped talents that haven’t had the opportunity of sprouting towards fruition. There are so many things that you’ve wanted to do but never had the quality time to do them.

Don’t follow the masses that believe that they are in the final phase of their life.

This is only the beginning of an amazing journey for you.

The best years are still ahead and you only have to flip the switch in your brain and switch it to a new, different, exciting, unimaginable, and incredible idea that will catapult you towards your greatness.

Rekindle what you have always wanted at your core.

If you have completed your working career, join the revolution towards attirement and not retirement.

We can begin to do this by renewing our purpose.

The clearer the picture that we have creates more order, less fear, less doubt and less confusion.

So what really happens to this picture when we get older?

We wind down our career.

We have raised our families.

We have downsized our nest. Our picture begins to get a little blurry for some, as each day unfolds.

Why?

Our purpose is now changing. We don’t have to submit to retirement.

We can embrace attirement.

We just need to renew our purpose in order to embrace this new found life and mindset.

But . . .

Everyone around you is telling you to slow down.

Take it easy.

You work too hard.

Check out this amazing couple.

ROGER AND HIS YOUNG WIFE OF 76 YEARS

I met Roger in Texas on my way to the airport. He shared this amazing story with me that only inspired but further intensified my strong belief in attirement. Roger at the time was 79 years young.

Roger worked as a professional sales manager during his career. He currently drives for a car service and puts in 50–60 hours per week. He loves it as it provides purpose for him to get up each morning and make it happen.

His wife worked as a schoolteacher in her career and is now a sought out substitute teacher in the school district. She is 76 years young and is the first call for substitute teaching in the district, the reason being that she has incredible discipline skills.

This is her substitute teaching strategy that she employs as she always requests the toughest class in the school as her assignment for the day.

This amazing woman and teacher always request the names of the two toughest kids in the class. She calls these students by name and asks them to come to the front of the class and help her with a warm up technique.

These are the toughest kids in the school and no one ever calls them to participate therefore they are puzzled at first.

When she completes the day, these same students always tell the principal that she is their favorite teacher and wish that she was their regular teacher.

This woman is 76 years young and still driving her purpose and mission in life. In turn, she shares this purpose and passion with these young people.

Purpose and passion can never be disguised, as it is extremely transparent.

According to many reliable sources, bullies are individuals that love to inflict emotional pain on others due to feelings of insecurity; lack of self-esteem, self-love, or even being bullied themselves.

Most often the bullying masks serious, underline, emotional issues that are buried deep in the reservoir of their subconscious.

Almost all people at some time or another have been subjected to online or offline bullying and harassment.

Dan Pearce’s quote describes this phenomenon.

“People who love themselves don’t hurt other people. The more we hate ourselves, the more we want others to suffer.”

Bullying and harassment in society today is incredibly rampant even in these unprecedented times.

Regardless of age, many kids, youths, adults, and seniors have been subjected to bullying and in some cases resulting in suicide, which is beyond tragic.

The statistics are staggering.

This is a very serious, societal issue that has wreaked havoc on a wide spectrum of individuals worldwide.

Their ongoing, bullying dialogue inspires more hatred based on conjecture while some social media platforms reap the benefits financially without adhering to their own community standards.

The mission statement for one of these platforms is summarized in two words, lip service.

STAND UP TO THESE BULLIES

For some people, the following might prove to be a hard pill to swallow.

Stand up to these bullies spiritually by extending love and compassion, absolutely pray for these people and forgive them.

“They do not know what they do.” - Luke 23:24 KJV

In order to release these bullies, release them from your psychological house with the HSPP factor (happiness, success, prosperity and peace of mind).

This is the script and it works perfectly if you are serious about releasing the toxic energy.

“I absolutely release (name of individual(s) 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 very attentively.

There is always a cause and effect for every single word that is transmitted good, bad or indifferent.

“For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. “- Galatians 6:7 KJV

“If you deliberately plan to be less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you’ll be deeply unhappy for the rest of your life. You will be evading your own capacities, your own possibilities.” — Abraham H. Maslow

How can anyone be on a mission to self-sabotage themselves?

It seems to be so counterproductive but many beautiful people do this unknowingly every single day of their lives.

Until they harness the power that their thoughts have over their results, discontent and the accompanying unhappiness permeates their daily life.

This is a subsurface, submarine like malady with powerful torpedoes that goes unnoticed by many people.

That little voice in their human personality is stronger than the voice that seeks greater expansion and greater fulfillment.

Being incredibly aware is the key to reversing this psychological warfare.

Emerson’s quote reveals this succinctly.

We can’t connect with anyone on the planet in a real sense unless we connect with ourselves first.

Listen to that little voice deep within as it will unveil your true path in this lifetime.

Recently, I asked this question to a young gentleman that was in the same hospital room as my friend.

“Greg, what would you really love to do with your life?”

His eyes lit up instantly. In a spirit of passion and excitement he mentioned that he wanted to become an online game designer.

You see this young man had made some very poor choices and was now in the hospital waiting for the amputation of several fingers and toes due to extreme frostbite.

According to his account, his girlfriend kicked him out of the house without any appropriate clothing or shoes and as a result he spent twelve hours in a frozen garage that he had broken into in an attempt to stay warm. His intoxication and lack of warm clothing caused him incredible pain and injury.

He was subsequently arrested by the police and brought to the hospital.

The point here is really not the incident in question but rather the idea of which voice Greg was actually listening to on a daily basis.

We all have to continually understand that if we persevere and absolutely choose the voice of acceptance and self-love, the infinite will carry us towards our finish line.

No one has your DNA.

The true meaning of DNA is dare to nurture all that is within you.

“The people who are crazy to think they can change the world are the ones who do.” – Steve Jobs

Mr. X lived at 42 Status Quo Lane for many years.

He always wanted to move but the little voice of his neighbors in his head were continually nattering, “You’re crazy to move. You’ll see. You’ll be back. Others have already packed up their suitcase and moved back to Status Quo Lane many times. You know it’s comfortable here. Nobody is going to ridicule you here as everyone on Status Quo Lane is on an even keel.”

The banter in his head was too much for Mr. X. so one day; he woke up and realized that he could actually do something about his life in order to change it up for the better.

He was actually so frustrated and so tired of the ups and downs in his life and just surmised that life is just like that.

Then one day, he met Mr. Y and realized that he didn’t have to live confined in a box any longer.

Soon thereafter, Mr. X attended a seminar where the concept of the XY syndrome was finally explained to him after all these years.

Mr. Y explained to him that he could have anything that he wanted as long as he changed his thought process and corresponding actions.

He said to Mr. X, “Start erasing the stuff that doesn’t work in your life thus allowing that inner you to appear. Its appearance will manifest into incredible, joyous and Godsome happenings in your life.”

He continued, “The more that you understand this concept, the more that your own personal wants will show up right on schedule.” 

So Mr. X began to dismantle his picket fence mentality that contained the rigid four posts that he had constructed and also restricted him all those years.

The four solid corner posts were fear, security, image, and purpose.

In the old days, anyone that was even remotely thinking about moving his fence caused incredible stress and frustration in his life.

Mr. X always wanted to change something in his life but fear always blocked his path with anxiety, scarcity, and every other debilitating and toxic entity.

The last post to go on the right side of his picket fence was the security post. It took awhile for him to remove this post, as he believed that as long as his picket fence was sturdy, it would provide him with stability and longevity.

After meeting Mr. Y and attending the seminar, Mr. X realized that security does not really exist.

He also realized that security is an idea that is outdated and purposeless as it prevented him all these years from stretching from his picket fence mentality.

Today Mr. X lives at 415 My Way Trail. 

He now understands that he is responsible for his life.

His new neighbor asked Mr. X, “Are you going to build a fence around your new house?”

Mr. X replied, “Oh no. I love the openness and freedom.”

Mr. X is attired (not retired), at the age of 80, lives on one of the islands, and is enjoying his life to the fullest.
