Remaining Present Eliminates Worries

Hello Friends,

Hope all is well. When you worry, you are not living in the present moment. Worry stems thinking about past events and equating it as what will always be. Worry can also come from looking to far into the future which creates anxiety.

The past is the past and it should be left there. Make your choices moment by moment. Because we may have failed in the past, we feel that we can never succeed because of these past failures. We sometimes become stagnant because of fear of failure.

The future is the future and it will come when it does. Some people get caught up in thinking that when they have "things" they will finally be happy. They may feel that the accumulation of material goods will somehow give them status.

The fact of the matter is that there is only ever right now. Past and future never exist. When the past happened it wasn't called the past. It was called now. When future events happen it isn't called the future. It is called now. So it is easy to see that now is the only thing that really exists.

Have a positive outlook for your existence. See yourself as the person you want to be now. Improve you attitude now. Appreciate your existence now. Don't let negativity rob you of the many blessings that are right in front of you.

Enjoy the following article. It gives us some great exercises to help us stay positive in the midst of what is seen as unstable times.(Remember...The times are only unstable if that's the way you perceive it to be). Have a great day, and thanks for listening. Blessings!

Go Ahead, Keep Worrying! The Art Of Negative Thinking

Have you listened to the news lately? There sure is a lot of negative statements about the troublesome state of our world isn't there? A person would have to keep her head wrapped in wool to not be bombarded with all the issues that she has no control over, and that can cause tremendous fear, uncertainty and doubt.

Feeling safe is the most basic of human needs. The need for shelter, for food, for personal safety comes before everything else. Every human has the right to have these needs met.

How well do you sleep at night when you start thinking globally?

When we feel our primal need for safety threatened, it causes a fear that settles deep in our hearts. We see the rest of our life through the lens of feeling fear.

This horrible, gnawing feeling is compounded by our lack of control. As individuals, we do not feel that we can fix global warming, bring down the price of gas or stop the insanity in the Middle East... you can identify with the feeling can't you?

How About Another Perspective? Would you like to reclaim your positive attitude? Would You Like to Sleep Better?

Try a little exercise:
Think of the people in the world as a bunch of random dots on a page. These people/dots either have an "N" for negative focusers or "P" for positive focusers, or they have a "?" for undecided focusers.

Right now, we are very aware that there is a lot of Negative focusers... just listen to them everywhere... they talk about all the problems in the world... they are stressed out, they worry, complain, fret...

They look at the world through a lens of fear and cynicism. They talk about problems constantly.

By the Law of Attraction, these Negative Focusers and their negative thought have a lot of attraction power. Together, they make a strong negative magnet.

Now: Consider those people you know who, even though they are paying the same price for gas etc, are focused on their gratitude for living in a culture where they have the freedom and abundance to go places or even to own a vehicle. They see the positive aspects of life. They express gratitude for the many blessings of abundance they enjoy.

They look at the world through the lens of positive focus, solution thinking, forward movement.

These are the Positive Focusers... they too, are sprinkled everywhere...

By the Law of Attraction and in direct proportion to their numbers, they are a strong positive magnet.

Then there are the undecided folks who sit in the middle and have not much magnetic power at all because they don't focus one way or another.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have these people flock to the positive focus of the world?
Wouldn't it be wonderful if they started focusing on the healing of the planet?
Wouldn't it be wonderful if they turned their attention to thoughts of peace?
Wouldn't it be wonderful to change those unfocused folks to positive focusers?

What could our world become with a dominantly positive focus?

So, what are you? Part of the problem, part of the solution, or just an unfocused, undecided, weak magnet?

Get Started Right Now. Choose your attitude.
Write a gratitude list. Pay attention to what is right with the world, and take you attention off of what is wrong.

Attract the positive... You will benefit and so will the whole world. Namaste
