Attract Solutions, Not Problems: Quit Complaining About Your Problems; And Do Something Different
Do you really want things in your life to be better in some way, or do you want to keep being the “star” in your own personal drama? Better is different; and, if you are afraid of change, better may be easier said than done. Many people continue to create unhappy lives for themselves because they don’t know how to do any differently; but some people enjoy playing the role of victim. You simply can’t keep being the main character in your own tragedy if you want to have a happy and fulfilling life. You don’t get extra-credit, or “happy points,” for carrying a heavy load. Being happy actually lightens your load – or makes it easier to carry. Suffering is not the path to fulfillment; it is merely one of the steps along the way.
The Law of Attraction and Happiness: How to Attract Happiness – Just Be Happy!
I think it’s safe to assume that “normal” people want to be happy. We want to be around happy people, in happy environments, feeling good and doing things that make us happy. So, if happiness (and happy experiences) is our goal, what can we do to reach that goal? If happiness is a common goal for so many people, why are so many people unhappy? There’s got to be a way for each of us to attract the happiness we seek; but how?
Happiness: How To Be Happy Using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)
Happiness is our natural state. Happiness is essentially the “unimpeded flow of life-energy,” or spirit, through us – through our bodies and life experiences. We have to learn, or be conditioned, to resist the flow of life and happiness. In other words, if we didn’t have experiences that taught us to be afraid, worried, and unhappy, we’d be happy. If we weren’t conditioned to resist, we’d relax. Happiness is natural; unhappiness is essentially a bad habit based on fear and misunderstanding.
Happiness: 5-Golden Rules for Being Happy Now and Always
No matter what you’re looking for in this world, or in this lifetime, chances are that the underlying reason you’re looking for it is so you can be happier than you are now. Think about it for a second; you certainly don’t want more money and better health so you can be miserable. Likewise, if you want a great relationship, or some other kind of success, it isn’t so your life will be completely ruined – it’s so you can be happier than you are now. It is only natural to want to live, learn, grow, and be happy. Basically, if we aren’t trying to stay alive, we’re usually trying to be happy.
Law of Attraction and Getting What You Want: Are You An Attractive Person?
Attractiveness has much less to do with beauty than you might think. After all, wouldn’t you rather be around a nice person than a pretty person that treated you poorly? “Love” and all its attributes – kindness, compassion, faith, gratitude, joy, etc – is the only truly attractive force; and, interestingly, the more love you give, the more attractive you become – and the more you receive. When your thoughts are grounded in Love, faith, trust, courage, and gratitude, you are a constant attractor; and you get more and more of what you want – and less of what you don’t want.

5-Simple Steps to Happiness Now
Everyone is seeking happiness. This is a truth that supports the food, drug, entertainment, self-help, retail, automotive, and every other industry. People are seeking happiness; and, when they can’t find it, they seek to escape their discomfort. Of course, there are those who are seeking happiness through misery; and some who are miserable no matter what they do — but happiness is the ultimate point. And happiness is right here, right now — not someplace else, or some time in the future.
Bless them All
My last post ["What luck for rulers that men do not think."] was about thinking — actually, it was just as much about not-thinking. Really, all my posts are, in one way or another, about thinking; but there were parts in that last post that could have seemed "anti-media," or "anti-government." It was actually nothing more than an invitation for US to wake-up; talking heads is not my term for the people who read the news prepared by other people and approved by others still. The point was simply this: If you don’t think for yourself, others are more than willing to do it for you; and they will. And it will cost you money, cause you suffering, and you will not get what you want, but what they want you to have. That’s all.
As for the media, government, and the heads of organized religions around the world, Bless you all. There is indeed darkness in the world; and it doesn’t settle to [or for] the bottom — it does whatever it needs to do to reach the top and stay there. But being anti-anything is never the answer. Leaders who start wars are the real victims, though they would smirk at that statement; they need our love and blessings. A leader who bends to the greed and ignorance that starts wars is a leader in need of positive energy — not more negative energy. Pray for these men to find wisdom; do not curse them.
CARE in Relationships
In the United States, more than half of all marriages end in divorce. I don’t know what your experience has been; but, in my experience, more than half of those who don’t divorce are unhappy, if not miserable. It is quite rare, in fact, to see older couples looking happy and healthy, holding hands, dancing, or even smiling at each other. So if you see something like that, remember it; that’s a future worth thinking about.
Growing up, I often heard the saying, "The family that prays together stays together." Yet I have seen churches full of miserable people praying their hearts out to heal their relationship — sometimes the same people I hear arguing at the ball field, the grocery store, or at a restaurant. Worse still are those who simply ignore each other — blindly gazing off into space with eyes full of remorse or resentment. They aren’t thinking the same things, or about the same future. They’re praying, alright — but not together.
The Power of Prayer in Every Bite!
I recently had the pleasure of eating in a local restaurant called, "BJ’s Kitchen and Catering." BJ’s is owned by Bettie Jean and Milton Robinson, and offers wonderful home-cooking with love in every bite. Our hostess was a delightful young woman we took to be in college due to her maturity and professionalism; we later found out she was the ninth-grade niece of Milton and Bettie.
Besides the wonderful (and comforting) food, and friendly, helpful people, there was an obvious feeling of peace and relaxation in this place. Overall, the experience was excellent. Jennifer asked for a buffet menu — so she could see what was offered through the week — and they didn’t have any copies left. Milton immediately went to the print shop and, before we had finished what was on our plate, had returned with Jennifer’s menu.
It was extra meaningful that he did that, because on the menu is the story of how a prayer became a reality; and it is a perfect example of not only The Belief Formula, but of the power of prayer to create reality from our thoughts and desires — in the right time and in the right way. Here’s the story from BJ’s menu:
