| No, if I choose to do anything, it’s always based on positive thoughts and feelings.
Using the “stay in bed or go to work scenario,” let’s say I still choose to go to work, but also choose to think about it in a d The big question is why do I care? Like Dr. Robert Anthony, the renowned proponent of the Law of Attraction and author of multiple best-selling books,Air Jordan 17, says “This little three-letter word “WHY” is the magic word for creating your ultimate life.” Acknowledging this ability to choose, the inherent free will given to all, is a profoundly empowering thought. It is a great gift from The Big One Upstairs (God, Gaya, The Original Substance, the Universe,Nike Jordan AJF13, etc.) and a wonderful part of the experience of Life. Choose to do the things you WANT to do today. Notice I said WANT, not HAVE, or NEED. Remember this simple fact of life: You don’t have to do anything! You always have choice. Let me make it clear that I don’t go to work for the money. In every case, this motive is counterproductive and should be the last on your list of decision making factors. In his best-selling book “Rich Dad, Poor Dad,” author Robert Kyosaki explains why this is so. He makes it clear why Rich People Don’t Work For Money – They Work For Experience. And the new experiences always provide vast opportunities for riches. The trick is to keep your eyes and mind open to them. As David Cameron Gikandi, a Law of Attraction expert and the author of one of my most favorite books “A Happy Pocket Full of Money,” says, “We are all rich. And we can easily get richer. Some of us just don’t choose (by ignorance or disbelief) to see it.” But, how do you choose what to do (or not to do) next? The answer lies in your ultimate life goal. Napoleon Hill called it “your Definite Major Purpose.” Anthony Robbins, the highly successful personal development coach,Jordan Retro 9, calls it your “Magnificent Obsession.” Do you have one? I hope so. It's vital to vitality! For me, if that were the case, I’d just stay in bed! Fortunately, I am (and have always been) less concerned than most about what other people think of me. It’s the weak and shallow people who spend their whole lives trying to impress people they don’t even know; or worse, trying to impress people they don’t even like. Of course, you must also accept the consequences of any choice you make. For example, if I don’t feel like going to work and choose to stay in bed on a workday, I must accept whatever happens next. But if I care about my job, I choose to get up and go to work. Thoughts about your business and your “busy-ness”… I also like Warren Buffet’s comical take on this money motive issue. I’ll try and paraphrase as best I can. He says that “It’s stupid to do anything just for the money. …it’s foolish to marry for money – especially when you’re already rich!” I could answer my own “WHY” question with the everyday, common answers keeping my job, getting paid, looking and playing the part of a good English teacher, etc.). But that would be a copout and would not make the choice any more palatable. This way of thinking is based on fear, negativity and external pressures; the underlying thought being: I don’t want to get fired; I need the money; and I wonder what my students and fellow teachers will think if I am habitually late or absent? Would they think I was a slacker or that my life was too undisciplined to simply get up on time in the morning? The list of negative “What would others think?” is endless. A wise man once said, “A person without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder." It seems to me that this ship's captain is clueless too! I recommend reading any of his writing about Life and the Universe. |
