Repent & Desire: New Thoughts!

The Reason That You Fail

In life, we either fail or we succeed. We are living in a world today in which the people who lived before us could only imagine. We are living in the land of opportunity, yet eighty five percent of us who live in this country are either, broke or busted and discussed or both. The average person begins to read by the age of 6, by the age of 25, we began learning how to make a living and take care of ourselves. Yet by the age of 62, a great percentage of us are broke and totally dependent on social security to take care of our needs. Why is this happening? Why do some people prosper while many others fail? The answer is clear and simple, it's the same thing Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha and all of the ancient teachers talked about, in fact, it was here before them. Here it is: We Become What We Think. Yes! That's right. Whatever you think and believe, you will become. When you think and believe something and focus on it, trust me, it will come to pass. In other words, aiming and setting goals is the key to success. Show me someone who is successful at something, and I'll show you someone who had a goal and took aim at something. Likewise, show me someone who is not successful and I'll show you someone who aimed at nothing; they just drifted through life as prisoners of circumstances. People that fail believe that their lives are shaped by the things that happen to them ("somebody done them wrong") they believe that outside forces control their lives. Successful people think and believe that they steer their lives from the inside the same way a driver steers an automobile, not from the outside, but from the inside. Some might ask, what is the definition of success? The answer is: Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal. That's it. People fail because they lack working towards a worthy goal. Going to work every day and working on the assembly line is not a goal, especially if you got cut from a pro football team, that's hell. Ask yourselves, "What am I aiming at"?

Understanding The Stock Market

Imagination

 

Many times before, we've heard that "Knowledge Is Power" but what's even more powerful is "Applied Knowledge" because to simply have knowledge and not apply it is a waste of knowledge. In other words, many people know better, but yet they don't "do" better. This is what is meant by "wasted knowledge". Case and point, everyone knows by now that robbing a bank is a crime, however, the prisons are full of bank robbers who had this knowledge, but didn't apply this knowledge. Today's blog is meant to expose you to "more"; yes, there is always "more", just waiting for you to acknowledge and have. But before you can "get more" you must be open and receptive to a new thought and a new idea. Let me expose you all to the truth, it's a truth that has been used since the beginning of time. It has made more millionaires and billionaires than anything known to man. It is the absolute most powerful tool you can ever use to bring forth your heart's desires. It's better and more powerful than knowledge, and guess what? It's absolutely free. Yes free! It doesn't cost a dime. In fact, we were all born with it, it's a little known, underused power that's been mostly used by Architects, Designers, Fiction Writers, Movie Directors, Inventors, Developers and so many others to make dreams come true. The tool or the power that I'm referring to is the power of your Imagination. That's right, imagination is the key. You've heard me talk about the power of your thoughts, and how your thoughts can change your world; imagine using your thoughts and training them to imagine your life just as you would have it to be. Trust me, it works. Most of us make the mistake of thinking Imagination is something used just for kids or some kind of fantasy on the lines of Disney. But stop and think for a moment, the airplane at one time was just the Imagination of the Wright brothers. Avatar, the blockbuster motion picture written and directed by James Cameron was at first seen through his Imagination. The reason why so many of us have underused or not recognized this power is because Imagination is not slave to the five senses. In other words, most humans find it extremely difficult and most times impossible to believe anything unless it is confirmed by the five senses. We only believe that which we can, Hear, See, Touch, Smell, or Taste. If it doesn't get the approval of the five senses, either it's not true, or it's a miracle. In truth, we all are miracles. Having the guts to risk losing one's money by investing is certainly a miracle. Everything that is seen, at one time was just an Imagination. The key is to begin to imagine the life you want, and go for it. Let me know your thoughts.

Is Your Money Sitting On The Bench?

Nearsightedness and Farsightedness

No, I'm not an optometrist and this blog isn't about your physical eyesight. However, I do feel that using the principle understanding of how nearsightedness and farsightedness affects your ability to see correctly, physically, as a metaphor it will help you see and understand the principles of investing.

Ok, what is nearsightedness? Nearsightedness is when a person's vision is better up close than it is at a distance. In other words, the person can't see far. Many people suffer the same symptoms of nearsightedness when it comes to investing their money. They can't mentally see into the future, they don't believe anything unless they can see it now and up close. There are many people who suffer from nearsightedness and have never been diagnosed or treated. It is virtually impossible for a nearsighted person to ever achieve or prosper in anything, especially without treatment (glasses, contact lenses). It has been written that people suffer for a lack of vision. Investing in real estate, stocks, mutual funds, a business and even your future requires being able to see at a distance.

The investment world requires you to be able to see past what is current. Heck, a farmer has to be able to see past the seeds that he plants in order to produce fruits and vegetables. To live a life and not be diagnosed or treated for farsightedness is equally our bad.

Farsightedness is the opposite. It's when a person can see far but not up close. Many of us go looking and searching for things and stuff to make us happy, we search high and low, spend large amounts of money looking for something that God has already given us when all we have to do is look inside. The story of The Wizard of Oz was about Dorothy and the other characters being farsighted; still today, many of us can't see it. Many people say they need more, but have proven the inability to work with less.

 

All the truth and knowledge you could ever imagine, is and will ever be, buried deep inside you, all you have to do is look up close. Seek and I promise you, you will find!
