Fear
During these seemly trying times and economic uncertainties, we must keep our heads, while people all around us are losing their minds and panicking.
Change, especially good change always brings out our worst enemy-fear. Fear will cause you to do and say stupid things. Fear and doubt will wipe you out and leave you uttering the words "I should've done this, I should've said that". One thing for sure, fear will leave you broke. You have never seen fear accomplish anything. It is the seed that produces heartbreak and misery. Fear is the season when the wealthy become wealthier and the poor become poorer.
There has never been a better time to invest than when fear is running wild. If you don't believe me, just look around. The restaurants are full, the retail stores are booming, and the stock markets are moving higher. Don't get caught-up in fear. Fear clouds your vision and stunts your growth. The only weapons that can defeat fear are faith, courage and love. You have to love that which you desire. Whatever your goals are or your dream is, drop fear and stay focused on your goals and dream. By the way, do you even have a goal?

We Must Create
If you aren't living the life you love, don't fret, just create it! I know that sounds pretty simple but trust me; it's not as simple as you think it is. All human frustration comes from unfulfilled desires. Believe it or not, we all, and I mean all of us, were born with a creative mechanism that enables us to create the lives we live.
Now, I know at first glance this all sounds a lot like hocus-pocus, but again, trust me, it isn't. Creativity is our birth right; we were all created by the Great Creator to-create. Happy is he who is building and creating his own world. Open your eyes for a moment and think outside the box. Are you making things happen or are things and stuff happening to you? Watch your thoughts very carefully, because your thoughts and your beliefs create your life experiences. Every day we should spend time working on creating new ideas. There are billions, maybe trillions of new ideas just waiting for great thinkers to develop the consciousness to bring them from the inner world onto the outer world.
It was once said that small minds spend time talking about people, average minds spend time talking about events, and great minds create and talk about new ideas. There's no sense in talking about politics, sports, news or anything else that's not going to add to your ability to create a better life. To create better financial conditions, you must create better financial causes. In other words, you must create better thoughts about saving, investing, and spending money. All thoughts are causes, and all effects are the conditions. To the thinker who thinks the thought of going to the casino, and later walks out of the casino broke: Don't blame the casino, the casino did what it was created to do (take your money), all blame goes to the thinker who caused the thought. And becoming broke is just the condition and the effect of a bad thought.
Sorry, don't listen to Jamie Foxx; you can't blame it on the alcohol. Blame it on your thoughts and your beliefs.
Who do you think you are anyway? Let me know your thoughts!

Staying Focused
One of the main reasons most of us don't meet our goals and financial desires is because we underestimate the power of "staying focused". Yeah I know, having a conversation about "staying focused" isn't exactly ranked high on the gossip polls, and since most gossip is trivial and pointless, maybe it's time that we focus, on the power of being focused.
Trust me, anytime you're not following the crowd and keeping-up with the silly Jones, chances are, you're moving in the right direction. Listen, I don't like the "blame game" and I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but lately I'm beginning to think maybe there's some kind of conspiracy to make most of us dumb and to divert our focus towards sex, Botox and cosmetic surgery. Ever since Pfizer released the blockbuster drug "Viagra" (Cialis, Levitra etc.) HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases have been on the rise among senior citizens.
While we're busy focusing on short lived emotional pleasures, the income gap between the haves and the have-nots is steadily increasing. The world is changing folks, and the future belongs to those who are able to focus on matters of upward mobility. Staying focused is the key. Every now and then, during the Winter Olympics broadcast, I'd sneak a peek and marvel at how focused the athletes were. I'm not into figure skating but, I must admit, not only was I blown away by their courage, determination and skills; I was assessing the magnitude of their consciousness.
The power and the capabilities of the human mind are truly mind boggling. When we make a commitment to focus on that which we really (and I mean really) want, it is then, that we witness the great power of the within. Let's be honest, don't lie, are you really, really focused? The truth is, whatever you focus on always shows up through the experiences that you have in your life.
Are you really serious about getting your financial house in order? We'll see. Let me know your thoughts.
"Goals are simply tools to focus your energy in positive directions, these can be changed as your priorities change, new one added, and others dropped."
