Life doesn't come with a moneyback guarantee (the truth)

2012-01-26T12:17:00.000-08:00

Life doesn't come with a money back guarantee and yet many of us
live like it does. People are certain that they will keep their
jobs. They are certain of living a long healthy life. Others might
be certain that they will lose their jobs or get sick and die
young. Certainty comes in many forms but it rarely corresponds to
the truth.

The truth is nothing is certain. The need for certainty is the need
for safety. It is the basis of all religion. Since we do not like
uncertainty, we choose to believe in something that we feel we
can be certain about, even though we have no logical proof that it
is true. 

Some might argue that if nothing can be counted on then why bother
trying. In order to move forward in life many people need to have a
sense of certainty about the outcome. But this kind of certainty is
an illusion.

Certainty is a form of disconnection - from the truth and from
ourselves. When we feel certain about something, we are
disconnected from the natural flow of life.

Certainty is the perpetual elusive dream of most people. 

What in life is certain? There is a part of you - your Authentic
Self - that is unchanging. This pure consciousness is certain while
everything else is uncertain, impermanent and an illusion. But how
do you discover or experience this pure unchanging consciousness?
Through Inquiry. 

If you are certain about something - anything for that matter - you
immediately place a lid on that thing. It cannot change. You won't
let it change because if you do, you will be wrong in your
certainty. But all things, except one thing, do change.

The only thing that doesn't change is WHO YOU ARE - your Authentic
Self or what is commonly called consciousness. Consciousness is
what remains when all concepts, beliefs, values, habits and ways of
thinking are stripped away. In other words, all of your ideas,
concepts, beliefs and so on will change over time. If this is true
then why waste time on trying to be certain?

By inquiring how and why you get certain results in your life you
learn about your beliefs and patterns that create those results.
Then through the power of your mind, you can consciously form new
patterns. The need for certainty is replaced by a relaxed "learning"
pattern. 

Can you imagine a world in which nothing changes? It would be
absolutely miserable. Inquiry is the habit that leads us out of
that misery.

Through uncertainty you move from being an expert to being a
student. All of life, all experiences, everyone and everything
become our teachers. 

Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestation
that you are making progress - IF YOU LOOK FOR IT!  No matter how
large or small, please record it in your Evidence Journal. It will
only take a few moments and will AUTOMATICALLY put you in the Flow.

Truly Caring for Your Success!

2012-01-24T13:42:00.000-08:00

Heart-Healthy Habits for Seniors

Many seniors believe that heart disease risks are inevitable in old age. In truth, there are plenty of ways to keep your heart in great shape — start with these seven.

Heart disease is a major threat to senior health — in fact, 84 percent of people age 65 years and older die from heart disease. Though heart disease risks increase with age, it doesn’t have to be an inevitable part of getting older. The right lifestyle habits and a heart-healthy diet can help protect you.

What exactly is heart disease? It’s the term given to a group of different health conditions that affect the heart. In the United States, the most common form of heart disease is called coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is often responsible for serious cardiovascular events like a heart attack, heart failure, chest pain, and irregular heartbeat, also called arrhythmia.

Know the Symptoms of Heart Disease

The warning signs of heart disease often don’t appear until you're having a heart attack. Symptoms of an emergency or impending heart attack may include:

Feeling faint
Weakness or a sensation of light-headedness
Having a hard time catching your breath
Feeling nauseous or vomiting
Feeling very full or having indigestion
Pain in the chest or an uncomfortable pressure in the chest
Unusual pains in the back, shoulders, or neck
Sweating
An irregular heartbeat

Fennel Tea Benefits

The Fennel herb is a traditional element of Chinese, Arab, Indian and Western pharmacopoeias. It had been such due to the observed health benefits that it had imparted over the centuries.

Fennel Tea Benefits

Meanwhile, fennel seeds are a common cooking spice worldwide, popular with fish and curries. Fennel is an element of Chinese five spice powder, and is part of innumerable traditional Mediterranean, Arabic, Iranian, Indian and European recipes. Fennel's sweet earthy taste enhances meat dishes, fish, breads, pickles and vinegar.The main active constituents of fennel, which include the terpenoid anethole, are found in its volatile oil.

Anethole and other terpenoids may have mild estrogen-like activity, which inhibit spasms in smooth muscles, such as those in the intestinal tract.In fact, fennel was formerly an official drug in the United States and was listed as being used for indigestion.Fennel seeds are usually ground or crushed and steeped in boiling water to produce tea for internal use.To read on further please click here:

Solar Storm Now Hitting Earth, Called Strongest Since 2005, Could Affect Astronauts

2012-01-24T10:13:00.000-08:00

WASHINGTON -- The sun is bombarding Earth with radiation from the biggest solar storm in more than six years with more to come from the fast-moving eruption.

The solar flare occurred at about 11 p.m. EST Sunday and will hit Earth with three different effects at three different times. The biggest issue is radiation, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Space Weather Prediction Center in Colorado.

The radiation is mostly a concern for satellite disruptions and astronauts in space. It can cause communication problems for polar-traveling airplanes, said space weather center physicist Doug Biesecker.

Radiation from Sunday's flare arrived at Earth an hour later and will likely continue through Wednesday. Levels are considered strong but other storms have been more severe. There are two higher levels of radiation on NOAA's storm scale – severe and extreme – Biesecker said. Still, this storm is the strongest for radiation since May 2005.

The radiation – in the form of protons – came flying out of the sun at 93 million miles per hour.

12 Skinny Foods for 2012

2012-01-23T12:17:00.000-08:00

12 Skinny Foods for 2012Here are 12 delicious, diet-friendly foods that offer phenomenal calorie bargains. If you're looking for creative ways to enhance your weight loss efforts this year, give these tasty bites a try!

ShrimpAt just 8 calories a pop, shrimp are a top-notch source of lean protein, which helps rev your metabolism and suppress your appetite. Start your next restaurant meal with a shrimp cocktail app to fill up quickly, so you don't overdo it when the main entrée arrives. Or, sauté shrimp with a medley of veggies, like onions, mushrooms, peppers, and broccoli, to create the ultimate diet-friendly dinner.

Grape tomatoesOne cup of grape tomatoes clocks in at only 30 calories. These bite-sized nibbles are sweet, colorful, and ideal for snacking since you can pop 'em in your mouth one at a time. And, because they're so low in calories, you can munch to your heart's content!

Egg whitesEgg whites are pure, high-quality protein and just 17 calories apiece, which makes them the ideal ingredient for a low-cal breakfast with real staying power. For a slimming morning meal, scramble 4 to 5 whites with any sautéed veggies (I like a combo of spinach, tomatoes, and onions) and top with a dollop of salsa (another food on my skinny list!).

Naturally flavored seltzerIf you're bored with plain old water, try naturally-flavored seltzer — carbonated water with a shot of fruit flavor. It's completely calorie-free, fizzes like soda, and comes in fun flavors like green apple, cherry, pomegranate… even vanilla and white chocolate! And it's one of the "cleanest" drinks around — it doesn't contain sugar, artificial sweeteners, food dyes, or anything else. For sweetness and pizzazz, float a few fruit slices or frozen fruit cubes made with 100% juice in your glass.

Whole-grain sandwich thinsSandwich thins and flats are the best thing since… well, sliced bread! That's because you get TWO halves for the same calorie count as ONE slice of regular bread (100 calories). Use these versatile, whole grain buns to build turkey or chicken sandwiches, or lightly spread them with nut butter or reduced-fat cream cheese for a smart bagel substitute.

CucumberCucumbers are one of the all-time best foods for fighting uncomfortable bloat because they're loaded with water and naturally low in sodium (taking in extra water while halting salt reduces water retention). Plus, they're a terrific calorie bargain; you can gobble up an entire cuke for just 45 calories. When you get the urge to munch between meals, slice one up into "chips" to squelch your appetite in a hurry.

SalsaWith less than 20 calories per ¼ cup, salsa is a dieter's best friend. Bottled or fresh, salsa makes a zesty, low-cal dip for crunchy veggies like baby carrots and celery sticks. It's also the ultimate slimming condiment for sandwiches, burgers, and baked potatoes. Use it as a flavorful replacement for mayo, sour cream, butter, and other fattening toppers.

PopcornOne cup of "naked" air-popped popcorn (without any added butter or oil) has only 30 calories! If you don't own an air popper, you can make plain popcorn right in your microwave. Add 4 tablespoons popcorn kernels to a brown paper lunch bag, fold over the edge of the bag twice to close it, and microwave the bag on high for 1.5 to 2 minutes. (Microwave times will vary; it will take a few trial runs to figure out the perfect amount of time required to pop the kernels without burning them.) To kick up the flavor, sprinkle your popcorn with Parmesan cheese, spices (chili powder and cumin, yum!), or even hot sauce.

Hot sauceResearch shows that including spicy foods at meals suppresses your appetite and slightly revs your metabolism, so hot sauce is doubly deserving of the "skinny food" title. Add this fiery condiment anywhere you can — sprinkle it on eggs, add a few dashes to soups and stews, or mix it into hummus to kick up the heat.

Water chestnutsThese under-the-radar veggies offer super satisfying crunch — a texture a lot of dieters crave after giving up potato chips and other snack foods. You can munch your way through a whole can for just 50 calories. They're also super low in sodium, unlike most canned foods, so they won't make you bloated. Quite the contrary, their high water content will actually help minimize puffiness. Water chestnuts are a classic addition to stir fries and a crisp, refreshing mix-in for low-fat chicken or tuna salad.

GrapefruitGrapefruit are refreshing, hydrating, and sweet, and one of the few seasonal winter fruits. One large grapefruit runs you just 120 calories and, since you eat the flesh one segment at a time, it automatically helps pace your eating.

Frozen cherriesFrozen cherries are a skinny solution to sugar cravings. Snack on these deliciously sweet gems right out of the freezer bag — they're like a healthy version of cherry Italian ices. You can enjoy ¾ cup of these icy treats for just 110 cals, and because they're frozen and take awhile to eat, you'll stretch out your snack time.

2012-01-23T09:20:00.000-08:00

Did you know that one of the powerful tools that you have to create what you want is your natural ability to imagine? Everyone has this ability. Some have practiced with this tool, while others were told not to imagine. We have that ability within us to imagine what we want to create in our future.

When you imagine, you are connecting with higher and finer energies. Imagination is not bound by time, space, or our physical environment. When we are imagining, we do it with a sense of joy and excitement. This relaxes us and makes us even more magnetic to what we desire.

Be aware that you can also use your imagination to create fear or what you don’t want. Be aware that you are always imagining. The question is, where are you spending your time? When you catch yourself imagining or projecting into a future that you do not want, stop and start thinking about what you do want.

Try this:

1. Sit quietly just for a few moments and pretend you are living what you want. The subconscious does not know the difference between pretending and what is actually happening. It accepts whatever you pretend as real and will create it in your reality.

2. Magnetize your goal to you. Just pretend you know how to do this, and you will soon see your goals manifesting. Connect with the vibration of this goal, and you will soon be experiencing it.

Have a great week and have fun magnetizing.

Much love,

Sip Green Tea for a Daily Boost of Antioxidants 10 Life-Sustaining Reasons to Drink Green Tea

2012-01-21T12:19:00.000-08:00

Whether hot, iced, or with honey, brewed green tea is chockfull of health benefits. (One exception: Avoid bottled green tea, which is often filled with added sugar.) Made from leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, green tea has a high concentration of powerful antioxidants called polyphenols and tea flavonoids known as catechins. These antioxidants help combat free radicals — substances that can alter and even kill cells in your body, causing premature aging, cancer, and other diseases — by neutralizing them. And fighting free radicals with green tea can have all kinds of benefits: Here are 10 scientifically supported reasons to add green tea to your diet.

Green Tea Lowers CholesterolA number of studies show that green tea seems to help lower cholesterol. One report published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that drinking green tea daily can slightly lower cholesterol levels. Another study done with male smokers who took daily 375-milligram green tea capsules for 12 weeks found that green tea significantly reduced the level of harmful LDL cholesterol in their blood when paired with a diet low in saturated fat.Researchers believe green tea’s catechins help prevent the absorption of cholesterol in the organs while simultaneously increasing the absorption of high-density HDL (good) cholesterol.

Green Tea Helps Manages WeightIf you’re watching your weight, green tea could be among the superfoods you want to include in your diet. Although research has not found that green tea can produce immediate weight loss, numerous studies have concluded that the properties of green tea can help you lose weight when consumed as part of a healthy diet because green tea increases energy expenditure and fat oxidation.

Green Tea Improves Bone HealthOsteoporosis, a disease in which bones become brittle and fragile, is a serious health threat for both men and women as they age. Although more research still needs to be done on the benefits of green tea for bone health, there is growing evidence that green tea can help. For example, a study in the journal Nutrition Research found tea drinkers between the ages of 65 and 75 had 5-percent higher bone density than non-tea drinkers, prompting researchers to conclude that drinking green tea can improve bone mineral density and thus lower your fracture risk. Researchers in Hong Kong also found that green tea contains a group of chemicals that stimulates the formation of bone and helps slow their breakdown. However, Atlanta-based nutritionist Marisa Moore, RD, LD, says more conclusive studies on green tea benefits as a healing food for bone health are needed.

Green Tea Boosts Oral HealthA number of studies, including one of 940 men in Japan, show that drinking green tea regularly can lead to a healthy mouth because tea’s catechins can actually help kill mouth bacteria. Mouth bacteria can turn the sugar in foods into plaque, and plaque produces acids that can cause tooth decay. Catechins may also help kill the bacteria that can cause bad breath.

Green Tea Helps Prevent Parkinson's and Alzheimer'sAccording to a 2012 study published in the Journal of Phytotherapy and Phytopharacology, there is significant evidence that free radicals play a role in the development of Alzheimer’s disease and that the polyphenols in green tea can help fight these free radicals. Researchers found that polyphenols can help prevent the buildup of brain-damaging proteins, as well as help prevent memory loss. A study published in the Natural Medicine Journal found that participants who took daily 360-mg capsules of green tea extract along with 60-mg of I-theanine (an amino acid also found in tea) had improved memory and attention spans, even if they had started to lose both.

Green Tea Protects SkinResearch shows that drinking green tea or placing green tea bags over your skin may help protect it from the sun’s ultraviolet rays, Moore says. In a controlled study recently published in the Journal of Nutrition, researchers in Germany found that women who drank about six cups of green tea per day had less reddening of their skin when exposed to a solar simulator than those who did not. Unfortunately, preventing wrinkles is not among the tea’s benefits.

Green Tea Fights Some CancersA number of studies show that green tea benefits include protection against certain cancers. “The data are the strongest for ovarian, bladder, and esophageal cancers,” Moore says. Green tea and green tea extracts also have been shown to lower the risk of breast cancer spread and decrease the risk of breast cancer recurrence, but only in certain circumstances. Research shows that green tea doesn’t seem to prevent breast cancer in Asian women, but it might help reduce the risk for breast cancer among Asian-American women. The jury is still out, though, on the likelihood of green tea reducing breast cancer incidence in Western populations.

Green Tea Protects Against DiabetesThere is some evidence that drinking this super drinkcan help prevent diabetes. One study found that Japanese adults who drank more than six6 cups of green tea a day had a much lower risk (33 percent) of developing type 2 diabetes than those who drank a cup or less a day. A number of smaller studies found that green tea extract lowered blood sugar levels in people who were borderline diabetic.

Green Tea Helps Prevent Heart AttackSeveral population-based studies show that green tea consumption can lower the risk of a heart attack by up to 11 percent. According to an analysis by the University of Maryland Medical Center, scientists also believe that green tea can help prevent coronary artery disease and atherosclerosis, which is the buildup of fatty material along the inner walls of arteries. However, at this time, the FDA does not believe that the evidence that green tea helps prevent heart disease is strong enough to allow tea makers to make this health claim on tea labels.

Green Tea Boosts EnergySome studies have found that green tea can boost your energy levels, most likely thanks to the caffeine. In fact, Japanese researchers found that when endurance athletes drank four cups of green tea a day for about 12 weeks, their overall endurance increased between 8 to 24 percent almost across the board.

What issuccess? Success is a concept - an illusion. Without a "story" weare always successful wherever we are.I have never seen a money problem that did not turn out to be athinking problem. I used to believe I needed money to be happy -even when I had a lot. I was often stressed out that somethingterrible would happen and I would lose all my money. I realize nowthat no amount of money is worth that kind of stress.If you live with the un-investigated thought that you need to pileup money to be safe and secure, you are living in a hopeless stateof mind. Banks fail, stock markets crash, currencies deflate,people lie, break contracts and break their promises. If you live in this confused state of mind that you need to pile upmoney to be safe and secure you can earn millions of dollars andstill be insecure and unhappy.Some people believe that fear of not having enough is whatmotivates them to make money.

7 Best Foods for Healthy Hair

2012-01-17T10:51:00.000-08:00

Starting a hair-healthy diet today will mean a more gorgeous head of hair within six months to a year, depending on how fast your hair grows. Add these seven foods to your diet for shiny, lustrous locks.

Eggs
Eggs are rich in biotin, a B vitamin essential for hair growth and overall scalp health. People ask me about biotin for hair health all the time — usually, they've heard about it on a shampoo commercial or read a magazine article that recommended biotin supplements. Because our bodies make their own biotin in the intestines, and it is plentiful in many common foods, deficiency is very rare. But in those few cases in which people are very ill and don't have use of their intestines, biotin deficiency causes hair loss. So yes, biotin is important for hair health, but you don't need to take supplements. Just eat a balanced diet that includes some high-biotin foods: eggs, peanuts, almonds, wheat bran, salmon, avocados, and low-fat cheese.

Pork Tenderloin
Tasty pork tenderloin is rich in B vitamins — folate, B6, and B12. These vitamins are involved in the creation of red blood cells, which carry oxygen and nutrients to all body cells, including those of the scalp, follicles, and growing hair. Without enough B vitamins, the cells can starve, causing shedding, slow growth, or weak hair, which is prone to breaking. Not a fan of pork? Wild salmon (fresh or canned), shellfish, beans, chicken, oatmeal, eggs, peanut butter, fat-free and low-fat dairy foods, and fortified whole-grain cereals are also good sources of B vitamins.

Spinach
This leafy vegetable is excellent for your body for many reasons, not the least of which is hair health. The power players here are folate and iron. Folate is a B vitamin that aids the creation of red blood cells, and iron (which spinach is high in) helps the red blood cells carry oxygen. With iron deficiency, a condition known as anemia, cells can't get enough oxygen to function properly. The result can be devastating to the whole body, causing weakness, fatigue, and maybe even hair loss. One large-scale study found that premenopausal women who had severe hair loss were more likely to have low iron reserves (as measured by a test for a form of iron called ferritin) than women with sufficient reserves of iron. Women of childbearing age are more likely to experience iron deficiency because they lose a significant amount of iron in the blood that's shed during menstruation. Before menopause, women may want to consider taking a multivitamin that contains iron.

Lentils
Along with tofu, soybeans, starchy beans, and black-eyed peas, lentils are a great vegetarian source of iron-rich protein, which I recommend for two reasons. First, protein is necessary for all cell growth, including hair cells. Hair gets its structure from hardened proteins called keratin. Without enough protein for keratin, hair grows more slowly, and the individual strands that do grow are weaker. Second, the iron found in animal foods (called heme iron) — such as lean beef, turkey, chicken, or pork — is more easily absorbed by the body than the iron in plant foods (non-heme iron). So, if you are a vegetarian, it's especially important to fill your plate with the most iron-rich plant foods. Additionally, you should combine your iron-rich vegetables with foods high in vitamin C, because vitamin C improves the body's ability to absorb non-heme iron.

Bell Peppers
Red, yellow, and green bell peppers are a colorful, delicious source of vitamin C, which is necessary for hair health for many reasons. Besides helping the body use non-heme iron — the type found in plant foods — to ensure that there is enough iron in red blood cells to carry oxygen to hair follicles, vitamin C is also used to form collagen, a structural fiber that helps our bodies (quite literally!) hold everything together. Hair follicles, blood vessels, and skin all require collagen to stay healthy for optimal growth. Even minor vitamin C deficiencies can lead to dry, splitting hair that breaks easily.

Sweet Potatoes
Beta-carotene in foods is converted to vitamin A in the body, and vitamin A is necessary for all cell growth, including hair. A deficiency can lead to dry, dull, lifeless hair and dry skin, which can flake off into dandruff. Be aware that you can have too much of a good thing when it comes to vitamin A: Too much can cause hair loss. My advice is to add more beta-carotene-rich foods like sweet potatoes, carrots, kale, butternut squash, cantaloupe, dark green lettuces, asparagus, and pumpkin to your meals rather than take vitamin A supplements. If you should choose to take a multivitamin, check the label to make sure that your brand supplies no more than 50 percent DV of vitamin A in the form of retinol. Retinol is listed on supplement labels as palmitate or acetate, and should never exceed 2,000 IU. The other 50 percent or more should come in the form of beta-carotene (or carotenoids), which is converted to vitamin A only as we need it.

Oysters
The mineral zinc is involved in tissue growth and repair — and that includes hair growth. It also helps keep the oil glands around the hair follicles working properly. Low levels of zinc can cause hair loss, slow growth, and dandruff. But the amount you get from eating foods rich in zinc — such as oysters, crab, clams, liver, lean beef, most nuts and seeds, peanut butter, wheat germ, fat-free yogurt, and cheese — is plenty to keep your tresses gorgeous. Aside from a multivitamin that provides up to 100 percent DV, I don't recommend taking extra zinc supplements because excess zinc can inhibit the body's ability to absorb copper, a minor but necessary mineral.

The easiest way to open the flow of riches... article by Dr Robert Anthony

2012-01-16T14:47:00.000-08:00

Unfortunately we are surrounded by a lot of negative energy. Yet,if we can raise our energy, we will start to feel ourselves pullingout of the negative energy surrounding us. The energy in ourenvironment is often pulling us down so we have to protectourselves by aligning ourselves with people and situations that donot deplete our energy. How can we build up our energy? By only focusing on things thatmake us feel good. I have also found associating with like-mindedpeople raises my energy faster than anything else because I amsurrounded by the groups combined energy. The problem is, when Ileave that uplifting energetic environment and go back to my normaldaily routine, that higher energy level is often dissipated. I soon realized that I had to learn to condition my energy tomaintain or vibrate at a consistently high level. Once I learnedhow to maintain my energy, I could also use that energy to upliftother people. The easiest way to do this is to make the decisionthat you will feel "good". That's all it takes. If you feel "bad"in any moment, reach for a thought that makes you feel just alittle bit better and see what happens.One of the fastest ways to open the flow of riches into your lifeis to help other people raise their energy. In fact, it has becomea major part of my purpose to raise the energy of every person Imeet. This is not easy to do, but the rewards are far beyond theeffort it takes to do this on a daily basis. I practice it every day. Even when I meet a total stranger, I makethe effort to uplift their energy, even if it is as simple asgiving them a smile or being warm and friendly. Since energy is transferable without having to say a word, you canraise the energy level of the people around you just by sendingthem your thoughts. Try this experiment. As you come into contactwith other people, especially the ones that seem unhappy orstressed, take a moment and project a good feeling toward them. Saysomething like. "I wish the best for you." Or better yet, say "Ilove you". Now I know this is not easy, but the rewards will bewell worth your time and effort if you do it consistently, moment bymoment and day by day. It has an accumulative affect that willsimply amaze you.If you are like most people you will read this and say, "I cannotsee how this is going to help my money situation. I bought thisprogram to increase the flow of money into my life. Just show mehow to do that!" That's EXACTLY what I am showing you right now.The money you desire will flow into your life in direct proportionto the energy level or consciousness you are willing to maintain. Now you have two choices. You can read this and forget aboutit, agreeing that it is a good idea but do nothing about it, OR youcan DO something about it. Just try it for a week and see what adifference it makes in your life.Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestationthat you are making progress - IF YOU LOOK FOR IT!

A New Year to Work With the Universe

2012-01-14T16:07:00.000-08:00

Make 2012 Better Than 2011!A new year means a new start, regardless of what we may have endured or experienced in the one that just ended. I think the beauty about being the master of it all is that each and every day we are given a brand new canvas, a clean slate to start all over if we so wish. We are never stuck or limited by the universe, only by our own choices.So, given that all the doomsday crackers are going on about how we will all die this year, we might as well go out with a bang and live life to the fullest. (And when I say that, I do not mean for you to go and rob a bank or make some other muppet move that may end up hurting you or others, or may put you in jail.)Living life to the fullest means that we can do the things that we have been putting off for whatever reason. We can maybe join this non-profit organization to volunteer our time or money to. We can sign up for a gym and get a workout routine going. We can start the diet we wanted to start and maybe make up with those we have gotten in fights with. It’s never too late to say “I’m sorry.” We can start reading more and watching less TV; talking less and listening more and helping those who need it. We can take a long hard look at ourselves in the mirror and decide to be better people by being less selfish, less greedy, jealous and envious and more giving and forgiving.Click here to read further.............

12 Foods That Burns Belly Fat

2012-01-14T15:53:00.000-08:00

OatmealYour morning snack attack is caused by a dip in blood sugar levels. Fiber-rich oatmeal stays in your stomach for hours, staving off a doughnut run. One cup of 1 minute oatmeal with water is 143.Watch out: Steer clear of the sugary flavored varieties. Choose the plain stuff, and sweeten it with berries.

Almonds and Other NutsGo nuts! They slim your tummy by keeping it full. A Purdue University study showed that people who ate nuts felt full longer than those who ate rice cakes. Stick to 24 almonds a day to satisfy your hunger pangs without overloading on calories. One almond is 8 calories so 10 almonds is 80 calories.Watch out: Skip salted nuts; too much sodium raises blood pressure.Protein Powder or Manna360 ShakeIt's not just for gym rats! Protein powder contains amino acids that burn fat and build muscle. Add two teaspoons to a smoothie for a fat-busting drink. Find it at health food stores. Manna360 Shake has 130 calories. Whey Protein Powder Shake is also 130 calories. Both use just one scoop.Watch out: Make that smoothie with fruit, yogurt, and low-fat milk — adding protein powder to a chocolate shake doesn't make it health food (we wish)

Olive OilEveryone needs a little fat — it controls hunger. Go for monounsaturated fats like olive or canola oil. They will help keep your cholesterol under control and satisfy cravings. One tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil is 120 calories.Watch out: Steer clear of hydrogenated vegetable oils; they're loaded with unhealthy trans fat.

BerriesBerries stuff a lot of filling fiber into a tiny package: Just one cup of raspberries has six grams. One cup of berries are between 86 to 96 calories. Six strawberries are 96 calories.Watch out: Jelly is the junk food of the fruit world. It has almost no fiber and contains added sugar.

EggsEggs contain vitamin B12, which your body needs to metabolize fat. In fact, researchers at Louisiana State University found that people who ate eggs for breakfast every day lost more weight than those who ate bagels. One hard boiled egg is 77 calories.Watch out: Talk to your doc first if your cholesterol is high.

Beans and LegumesBeans are low-cal and packed with protein and fiber, which help you tone up and lose weight. Make a bean-heavy dish, such as burritos, instead of meat once a week. You'll cut a lot of saturated fat and replace it with fiber.Watch out: Refried beans are high in saturated fat. Choose plain black, pinto, or other varieties instead.

Lean Meats and FishYour body burns more calories digesting protein than carbs or fat. Want the leanest meat out there? Opt for turkey, but to cut down even more on saturated fat, choose fish. Go for tuna and salmon; they are full of omega-3s, which help prevent stress chemicals that promote fat abs. One oz frozen salmon and frozen cod is 100 calories. Lunchmeat like Buddig is 90 calories. Got to FitDay.com for calories count on meats.Watch out: Cured meats and sausage have a lot of saturated fat.

Whole GrainsThe right kinds of carbs are actually good for you. Choose whole grains — their fiber keeps you from getting hungry. Go to FitDay.com to get calories count on whole grains.Watch out: Sometimes bread labeled "wheat" has been stripped of all of its fiber and nutrients. Look for "whole grain" or "100 percent whole wheat."

Peanut ButterWho would have guessed that a kid-friendly food could be waist-friendly, too? PB is packed with niacin, which keeps the digestive system on track and prevents belly bloat. Just keep an eye on portion size: Peanut butter does have a lot of fat, so limit yourself to no more than two tablespoons a day. Go to FitDay to get calories count on peanut butter.Watch out: Pick all-natural PB, which doesn't contain added sugar.

Green VegetablesIf their vitamins and minerals don't persuade you, maybe their waist-whittling powers will do the trick. Veggies like spinach and broccoli are loaded with fiber and very few calories. Have a salad before a meal and you'll be satisfied with smaller portions later. Spinach, Romaine are 15 calories per cup. Same as salad mix and lettuce.Watch out: Iceberg lettuce has almost no fiber. Fill your bowl with romaine, arugula, or spinach instead.

DairyThere's a reason the woman in the yogurt commercial fits into her bikini: Calcium helps break down fat and may even prevent it from forming! Go to FitDay.com for calories count on Dairy.Watch out: Always pick low-fat or fat-free dairy over the full-fat versions.

AvocadosIn addition to containing lots of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, avocados are a terrific source of filling fiber (11 to 17 grams per avocado!), making them a great food for staving off hunger, says Bowden. One small avocados are 236 calories.Scarf down: Half a cup daily

Iced tea"Tea, especially green tea, is rich in antioxidants that have been proven to speed metabolism," explains Mark Ukra, author of The Ultimate Tea Diet.In fact, according to Swiss researchers, tea-drinking subjects burn a whopping 266 more calories per day than those who abstain.For consummate calorie-torching, skip bottled teas — processing has depleted them of slimming nutrients. Instead, steep a tea bag in one cup of hot water for two minutes, then cool with ice cubes. Enjoy four cups daily. Teas are generally 0 calories except for caffeine tea is like 5 calories per cup. Stash Chai Spice Tea one cup is 25 calories.

Parmigiano-Reggiano cheeseThis low-cal, calcium-rich treat activates the body's fat-burning hormones, say University of Wisconsin researchers. "Plus, because of its high protein content — it contains more than any other dairy product — you'll stay full longer," notes Dr. La Puma.His slimming Rx: "Grate one ounce on soups or salads daily." One tablespoon is 20 calories.

Cannellini beansWhen it comes to resistant starch, a unique fiber that resists digestion, these legumes lead the pack.Good news for you, because slower digestion means your body has to work harder — that is, burn more calories — in order to process your meal, explains Janine Higgins, Ph.D., lead author of a University of Colorado study on weight loss.Battle the bulge with a half-cup daily. Go to FitDay for calories count on Cannellini Beans.

Joy Bauer Talks About Diet and Memory

2012-01-13T11:02:00.000-08:00

Eating certain foods can help make life's little details unforgettable.

Age, stress, quality and length of sleep, medications, and of course, nutrition can all influence how well your memory functions. Physiologically, good memory depends on your total number of brain cells (neurons), the smooth flow of communication between the cells and the health of the cells.

In many ways, overall health can strongly affect memory. For example, the health of the body's cardiovascular system can affect the performance of brain cells. Every cell in the body needs a steady supply of oxygen and nutrients to stay alive and work properly. Because oxygen and nutrients are carried in the bloodstream, anything that impedes blood flow can negatively affect brain cell function. Simply put, a healthy heart makes for a healthy brain. So it's important to keep blood pressure and cholesterol levels in check and to exercise regularly and not smoke.

Your Mind Power Controls Everything in Reality - an article by Dr Robert Anthony

2012-01-12T12:18:00.000-08:00

Your Mind Power Controls Everything in Reality

Lack of control is an illusion. If you are the creator, all things
are under your control. Some people say that control is an illusion
but the opposite is the real truth. How can you not be in control
when all things are under your control? Realize the aspect of
yourself that is divine, your Godhood. God is in control of all
things, and God is the Self of all, which is your Higher Self. You
are the Higher Self. You create all of your reality. There is no
aspect of your reality which you do not create. Therefore you
control all.

You are not a victim. All power is within and is absolutely under
your control. To say that things happen through another cause other
than yourself is to say that you are a victim. Nothing happens
outside of you. Everything is happening within you. You are
Consciousness, and Consciousness encompasses All That Is. Whenever
you feel not being in control, you are experiencing an illusion.
You created the illusion of not being in control, of not being God.
You are the director of the script and can control at will.

Intention controls results. Everything is created by your
intention. Even when what you desire comes at a time or in a way
that seems beyond your control, it is still your intent that
brought it into manifesting. That is no God outside of you that
makes things happen. Everything is within you and within God.
Nothing happens to you outside of you. When you realize this truth,
you know that you are the creator of everything that happens in
your life. The idea that something else makes things happen is not
truth.

When undesirable things happen, you are simply being moved mentally
or physically towards somewhere else that is closer to what you
want. It is you moving yourself. Those undesirable things are not
created by something external of you to affect you. They are part
of your intent. Your intent arranges and rearranges the universe to
move you to closer to where you wan to be. The rearrangement of the
universe may seem to be something that is happening on its own but
it is you who control it with intention.

Mind Power creates and controls reality. Think of Desire-Force as
the warm, ardent, fiery, forceful energy, underlying the
manifestations of Mind-Power; and of the Will-Power as the cold,
keen, strong, directing, controlling projector of the energy. By
fixing these mental images in your mind, you will be better able to
manifest the two phases as occasion arises. To create a thing you
must want it with a burning desire that allows no denial, backed up
by a will that knows no such word as "can't" or "no."

To live as a powerful creator, you have to banish the illusion once
and for all that you are not in control. Because you will always
arrive back at the core truth that you are the creator of your
reality and that you create all of it. Not being in control makes
you feel like a victim. When you focus on what you can do to create
what you want, you take back the power. Your intent brings you the
knowledge, the awareness and the energy to create what you want.
Everything that happens can be traced back to intent.

Seniors caught cheating on final exam District: About 200 students involved

2012-01-08T11:12:00.000-08:00

Wow 200 students!!!!

HOUSTON -

Hundreds of seniors at a southeast Houston high school were caught cheating on a final exam last month, said Clear Creek Independent School District officials.

Teachers and administrators at Clear Lake High School grew suspicious when about a third of the seniors had the same answers on an English exam taken before winter break.

"We believe about 200 students engaged in cheating on the final exam for the English 4 test," said Elaina Polsen, Director of Communication for Clear Creek ISD.

I love looking at lyrics written by famous artists, words that has a lot of meaning, something you can identify with:

"Believe"
(originally by Brooks & Dunn)

Old man Wrigley lived in that white house
Down the street where I grew up
Momma used to send me over with things
We struck a freindship up
I spent a few long summers out on his old porch swing

Says he was in the war when in the navy
Lost his wife, lost his baby
Broke down and asked him one time
How ya keep from going crazy
He said I'll see my wife and son in just a little while
I asked him what he meant
He looked at me and smiled, said

[Chorus:]
I raise my hands, bow my head
I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see
Oh I believe

Few years later I was off at college
Talkin' to mom on the phone one night
Getting all caught up on the gossip
The ins and outs of the small town life
She said oh by the way son, old man Wrigley's died.

Later on that night, I laid there thinkin' back
Thought 'bout a couple long-lost summers
I didn't know whether to cry or laugh
If there was ever anybody desevred a ticket to the other side
It'd be that sweet old man who looked me in the eye, said

[Chorus:]
I raise my hands, bow my head
I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see

I can't quote the book
The chapter or the verse
You can't tell me it all ends
In a slow ride in a hearse
You know I'm more and more convinced
The longer that I live
Yeah, this can't be
No, this can't be
No, this can't be all there is

[Chorus:]
When I raise my hands, bow my head
I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see
I believe
Ohhh
I believe
Oh
Do you believe?
Because, I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe

My Manna360 products came yesterday and now I am starting it today. So each day I will post my results as I go along. This morning I weighted myself and I am at 160 lbs. I have gained 25 lbs in 2 months and now I am going to get it back off. Thank god the holidays are just about over!!!!! I got my little 3 x 5 notebook to start writing my food/calories intake and also what calories I have burned today. I took the 360Mist (ZorbMax) and I was surprised how strong it was and also the energy I have right now!

Here is what ZorbMax is:

360 ZorbMax MistThe biggest thing in product development is actually quite small. At the microscopic level of human cells, our proprietary product ingredient enhances nutrient absorption and supports healthy cell performance. This can increase the energy and mental clarity of those who take our products, often within a few days. In addition, well-nourished cells are better able to rid themselves of toxins, battle the aging affects of free radicals, and support a stronger immune system.This nutritional breakthrough is both cellular and electromagnetic, as research scientist, electrolyte expert, and product developer Dr. Shawn Mueller explains.“An electromagnetic charge is critical to every process in the human body. The quality of these charges is linked to the health of cells. My patent-pending technology speeds absorption, enabling the body to take maximum advantage of the nutrients in food and supplements. The cell is where health begins and ends. That’s why the difference increased cellular energy makes in the body is so profound and powerful.”Dr. Mueller holds a Ph.D in Naturopathy with degrees in Exercise Sceince, Psychology, Phlebotomy, and Neuromuscular Therapy. His revolutionary technology is the result of decades of research and testing in sports science, fitness, and physical therapy.360 promotes cellular health for all 360 degrees of life and encourages a healthy diet and regular exercise.

THE DREAM STEALERS ~ ~ Don’t let ANYONE steal your dream!

2011-12-20T12:41:00.001-08:00

THE DREAM STEALERS ~ ~ Don’t let ANYONE steal your dream! No Shows or Lookie Loos aka Tire Kickers - People are going to promise you that they will come to watch the company video, come to a presentation, etc.; and they don’t. That happens. It’s just a fact of life. You spend time with some who eventually say “not for me”. This happens in everyday life situations and it will happen in your LiveSmart 360 business. Drop-outs - People are going to dropout of this business. People dropout of school, people quit their jobs, people even dropout of life. This business is no different. People are going to dropout. Go to a fast food restaurant and see what kind of a turnover they have. They have a 200% annual industry turnover. The turnover in the Insurance industry is even higher. It happens. Replace them. Alligators & the Rut-Riders - In this business you are going to come across what we call alligators and rut-riders. We all know people like the rut-riders. They have been riding in the same rut for the last 20 years and they will be riding for the next 20. There is a difference that a lot of people just don't understand. You can have 20 years of experience in something, or you can have one year of experience - twenty times. That's what the rut-riders do. There are the alligators. Now the alligators are people, but we call them alligators because they have very small, tiny, little brains and huge, big mouths just like an alligator. The average alligator has a brain the size of a lima bean and we all know how big their mouths are. Alligators in life are well meaning people who think it's their responsibility to tell you that their sister was in a company like this and all she ended up with was a garage full of product. They think they're helping you by advising you to just go out and get a "real job". They tell you that you'll never be any good at this because you can't even balance your own checkbook. If you know this you will be better prepared for them. You will face some rejection and negativity from people, even people you know. When this happens, think of Colonel Sanders. Colonel Sanders received his social security check and decided he didn't want to live that way for the rest of his life. (I doubt that SS will even be there for anyone under the age of 61…that’s my age) He had his recipe for fried chicken and so he started searching around for people who wanted to franchise his recipe. He went to 1,039 restaurants before he got a yes. Do you think you would stay in this business if 1,039 told you no? Do you think you would stay in anything if 1,039 people told you no? But he did stay in and now there is a Kentucky Fried Chicken on every corner in every town in America. Do the same with your LiveSmart 360 business! Ignore the Alligators and...never quit! As you persist in your LiveSmart 360 business, think of the rewards that you will receive: A. You can own your own life - Be your own boss.B. Choose the hours you want to work.C. Choose who you want to work with.D. Help lots of others do the same and everyone be more healthy. You can have everything you want out of your LiveSmart 360 business. The only thing that separates you from those who get it and make good money and those who don't is learning to be and do prospecting right and staying with it! ONLY THE QUITTERS ARE THE LOSERS IN THIS BUSINESS! Don't quit before payday!!!!! Invite people to look at the 8 minute video at www.earnsmart360.com/panda2011 and www.manna360.com/panda2011 … every day…except Christmas Eve and Christmas day and it will only be a matter of time before you find someone who is ready to join. Then repeat, repeat repeat. Onward and Upward! Jack M. Zufelt“Mentor to Millions”

Who's whispering in your ear? - Article by Dr Robert Anthony

2011-12-17T15:58:00.000-08:00

Many years ago I had a profound insight on taking advice from
others.

I stopped taking financial advice from people that were broke. I
stopped getting health tips from unhealthy people. I stopped taking
relationship advice from people with toxic or boring relationships
and I stopped looking for spiritual guidance from people that
couldn't demonstrate the manifestation of Universal Principles in
their life.

It sounds pretty simple doesn't it? But take a look at how often
you take advice from people who have not manifested what they are
advising. I follow the rule that "if they don't SHOW it, they
don't KNOW it" and I stay away from these people like they had the
plague.

Instead, I find people who have manifested what I desire and ask
them for help. Without exception they have been more than happy to
assist me. And the best part of the "advice" I am giving you right
now is that you can prove this to yourself!

Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestation
that you are making progress - IF YOU LOOK FOR IT! No matter how
large or small, please record it in your Evidence Journal. It will
only take a few moments and will AUTOMATICALLY put you in the Flow.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Here is a thought...In addition to all the other cool gifts...why not give Manna 360 as a Christmas gifts?

Soon the company will have a completely automated system that will allow Members to send FREE SAMPLES. The Company goal is to send out a MILLION FREE SAMPLES in 2012.

If you want or need more cash flow then it's time get serious about your LiveSmart 360 business. It can be a cash cow that provides milk every Monday...which is when we get paid!

Manna 360 works!

I started on the 23 lbs. that I want to lose and I'm happy to report that I am down almost 8 POUNDS! I've lost nearly TWO INCHES off my waist too! I also take 2 Manna Slim to help speed things up!!

I am hearing about people experiencing a 5-7 pound drop the first week and then 2-4 pounds each week thereafter. Pretty amazing.

There are also lots of reports about lots of other IMPROVEMENTS in peoples health issues now that their body is getting 100% of the nutrition it needs.

Take the Manna 360 product and then let me hear back from you.

This was featured on the famous Dr. OZ website!….This expert validates that shakes have a major role to play in weight loss and health. Put Manna 360 where it says protein shake because MANNA 360 IS FAR BETTER than any “protein” shake on the market and we PROVE it!!

Breakfast Shakes: Drink Yourself Skinny

By Lisa Lynn

Meal-replacement shakes are an effective, easy way to drop pounds. They teach you how to eat less and lose weight quickly and permanently – and the right shake can boost your metabolism by 25%. Who doesn’t need that?

The fact is, when you’re trying to lose body fat, you can’t skip breakfast – but you may be too busy to think about calories and to make healthy choices. That’s why drinking a protein (Manna 360 shake) first thing in the morning is a simple, foolproof weight-loss method. When you drink the right protein shake, (like MANNA 360) you give your body the nutrients it needs and you can also:

Boost your metabolic rate by 25%.
Save calories by avoiding fatty foods (if you drink a shake for breakfast, you can save an average of 400 calories per day). (Or more with Manna 360!)
Keep your blood sugar levels balanced, allowing your body to burn stored fat as fuel.
Increase your energy levels which enables you to increase your activity and automatically burn more calories.
Reduce high blood pressure, cravings and appetite
Increases stamina and energy
Improves focus and mental clarity
Improves cardiovascular health
Improves skin condition
Enhances mood
Improves digestion

Why do meal replacements or protein shakes for breakfast work? Simply put, weight loss occurs when your metabolism gets moving and you put out more calories than you take in. If you were to replace your 750-calorie bagel and orange juice meal with a 130-calorie MANNA 360 shake, you’d save 620 calories per day. And you’d see the results on your bathroom scale in no time.

We can’t be perfect all the time, so we need calorie safe havens that keep us anchored while we learn how to eat correctly. Protein shakes that contain nutrients offer those safe havens. (Manna 360 does it's better than any other shake!) Most people love them because they don’t have to think about food, plan meals or buy expensive products. You can even make them yourself.

Go to http://manna360.com/panda2011 and check it out for yourself - print the PRODUCT OVERVIEW and look at the comparisons - ALL OF THE GOOD - NONE OF THE BAD!

If you or someone you know wants to LOSE WEIGHT there is NOTHING BETTER than Manna 360. If you or someone you know wants to get 100% of all their NUTRITION, DIGESTIVE ENZYMES, FIVE SERVINGS OF FRUITS & VEGGIES and ALL THEIR MINERALS in a shake that tastes like vanilla ice cream - then Manna 360 is the ticket.

This product took over a year to produce from 77 all natural ingredients at a cost of several million dollars and BEATS the daylights out of EVERY product in it's category - nothing like it.

Go look - http://manna360.com/panda2011

We'll even show you HOW TO GET YOUR PRODUCT FOR FREE!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS

2011-12-16T14:36:00.000-08:00

Do you regard yourself as religious, traditional, spiritual or other? Regardless of how you define yourself, one thing that unites us is we all want to be loved and appreciated for who we are and show our love and appreciation to those who we perceive have contributed to our lives. Just know, no matter what you have done, or not done, you are worthy of love.

Bed of Roses

2011-12-15T14:22:00.000-08:00

Bed Of Roses lyrics
Songwriters: Bongiovi, Jon;

Sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano
Trying hard to capture the moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares, I think that he's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and french kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps it's own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love, the truth, what you mean to me and the truth is
Baby you're all that I need

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses

Well I'm so far away the step that I take's on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night
To see through this pay phone
Still I run out of time or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to
You I'll just close my eyes, whisper baby blind love is true

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses

Well this hotel bar's hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's is flirting with me
And he's giving me the eye
Well I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died
Ooh yeah

Now as you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my admirer he calls me to stand in his spotlight again
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I've got nothing to prove for it's you that I'd die to defend

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses

My California Psychic Horoscope for Today 12/9/11

2011-12-09T13:06:00.001-08:00

Pisces HoroscopeFriday, Dec 9, 2011

You'll be asking yourself some serious questions about where your life is headed today. And if you feel that some of the people closest to you haven't been fully supporting you, then maybe you need to stop counting on them. Just be aware that if you're not totally honest or if you misrepresent things to anyone today, some real disappointments could be in store for you.

A variety of different family issues will really be weighing on your mind at the moment. And if you don’t make an effort to clarify some confusing situations right now, then some unpleasant conflicts could result. Just be careful that you don’t end up spending too much time dwelling on past difficulties if you really want to get things resolved.

Mantra: I will treat others as I would treat myself.

Do you believe this? Another great article by Dr Robert Anthony

2011-12-07T15:59:00.001-08:00

Why are so many of us struggling? Because we have forgotten WHO WEARE.Who we are is our True and Authentic Self that is always connectedand one with Source Energy. On the other hand, who we THINK we areis how we show up in life. If we are struggling we will never bewho we are. Let that sink in for a moment.Who we THINK we are comes from listening to other people ratherthan listening to ourselves. For a large portion of my life Ibelieved what others told me to believe. I learned early that whatother people think of me is more important that what I think ofmyself. At least this is what I thought. Living in the Flow and living in abundance is about focusing on WHOYOU ARE and what you can do in this moment. It is not about who youare not, what you cannot do, and what you don't have. WHO YOU ARE is everything. It is the ONLY thing that really mattersbecause everything hinges on your ability to be yourself and to dothat you must become intimately aware of the false beliefs you haveabout yourself and about the way life works. When you live in the Flow and in Alignment with Source Energy youknow you already have what you need. People who live in the Flowand in Alignment are more than just positive thinkers - they areattraction in action.They accept life is not always easy and doesn't always follow astraight and convenient path. They let life unfold through theminstead of putting their life into a box of expectations. Your greatness is not dependent upon anything you accomplish. Youdon't need to prove anything to anyone - even yourself. I am hereto tell you one thing - you and everyone that comes in contact withyou are already great. To live your greatness, you must know WHOYOU ARE and you must do what you can do in THIS MOMENT. Nothing elseis required.Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestationthat you are making progress - IF YOU LOOK FOR IT! No matter howlarge or small, please record it in your Evidence Journal. It willonly take a few moments and will AUTOMATICALLY put you in the Flow.Truly Caring for Your Success!Dr. Robert Anthony

Most people don't know "how" to think...article by Dr Robert Anthony

2011-12-07T14:01:00.001-08:00

Most of us have been taught to follow the crowd. We subscribe to"tribal" thinking, which is the thinking of the masses. It is noteasy to break from this type of thinking, or non-thinking. A lotof people find this a huge stumbling block because they believewhat social, political, religious and other authority figures havetold them is "true". There is a lot of fear tied up in leaving the tribe. However, youwill never experience true freedom or riches unless you learn tothink for yourself. But to do this, you must be capable ofcritical thought - which is something the members of the tribecannot do.Put another way - most people don't know how to think. They havebeen told WHAT to think for so long, they no longer know HOW tothink. What's the lesson for you?I'm convinced that true freedom and riches requires you to thinkcontrary to what the tribe is thinking. And it ALWAYS requires youto question the beliefs you hold. On everything. This is not easybecause we are addicted to certainty. We would rather be certain about our beliefs than face the factthat what we believe may not be "true". But the more you questionwhat the tribe believes the more you will realize that they arehypnotized. You don't have to wait for them to wake up from thetrance. You can do it right now!Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestationthat you are making progress - IF YOU LOOK FOR IT! No matter howlarge or small, please record it in your Evidence Journal. It willonly take a few moments and will AUTOMATICALLY put you in the Flow.Truly Caring for Your Success!Dr. Robert Anthony
