If you have any sort of investment or watch TV/read the news or even the front page of yahoo! you have heard about the stock market yesterday, and markets around the world for that matter.

Brutal day on Wall Street

Dow tumbles 416, biggest one-day point loss since 2001, as investors eye China, drop in durable orders.

A lot of people woke up with an aspirin bottle and a glass of water, contemplating how they could have lost their life savings while others woke up with a glass of champagne and some strawberries contemplating how to spend the many millions that they made yesterday. Read more…

There seems to be a lot of talk about religion around here lately, and I just want to put the focus back to where it belongs when working with Law of Attraction: on creating good feelings. A commentor - commenter? - made some good points about how whether we are talking about LOA or religion, it is of benefit to anyone to be able to feel good about themselves, and create good things in their lives.

A lot of people practicing Law of Attraction have a syndrome. You hear about it every day but no one gives it a name - so presenting the JUST IN CASE syndrome. I’ve spoken about it before but I believe this is the first time on this blog.

You are a child and you say Mom I want to be a movie star she says Honey, get a degree - just in case it doesn’t work out…You go to the grocery store and you say double bag it for me - just in case it breaks. You say I’m going to be self empolyed you hear Make sure you have 6 months worth of income - just in case it doesn’t work out. You say I’ve asked the Universe for $2k to pay my mortgage but just in case I’m going to get a part-time job. We call it our backup plan but the Universe calls it lack of trust or lack of faith. Read more…

Personal Development/Selp Help is all about growth - Growth not only for the people who listen to you but also for your own growth. A few days ago some comments on a blog post had me screaming in my head STOP all this God talk I don’t believe in God, but I was afraid to write those words, afraid I’d get hate mail damning me to hell and limbo.

I cannot help but put my two cents’ worth out there, as I am watching the Academy Awards and notice what a difference I feel this year as compared to years past.

I have in the past been of two minds about such awards shows, as I felt the excess Read more…

How much faith do you have in the things you have asked for?

Yesterday we had a conversation - you know, with the regular culprits, my prosperity partners. I wanted to work on resistance to money and winning the lotto. After all, I asked for a billion dollars to make it to the Forbes 400 richest list, so every little bit helps. Anyway I wanted to work on any limiting beliefs I may have to the winning the lotto, so one by one I asked for a list of reasons ‘Why I couldn’t win the lotto.’

During this little ‘find out what’s holding you back’ session I had an important thought about faith. I asked the question ‘Could I go to the Bentley dealership and go test drive my Bentley based on the belief that I’m going to win $177 million tomorrow? Could I take that leap of faith?’ The answer was no - I’d feel utterly stupid to tell the sales guy ‘Hey, be back tomorrow after I win my $177 mill to take this baby home!’ Then it hit me. Wow! That means I say I’m gonna win the lotto but I don’t truly believe that, do I? Read more…

I just read my email from one of the many groups I’m a part of, and here on this bright Thursday morning as I am getting ready to go work out, I read about someone’s life and how they are fighting the forces of evil in their lives. The stories seem to come from everywhere, people telling you what happened to them yesterday and then someone else says “You think that’s bad? Wait till you hear what happened to me!”  Read more…

LOVE.

This word is so frequently used it almost has no meaning these days…it also means very different things to different people. This post is about love….what started out in my mind as questions about love for someone else became a gift I am giving myself…and because it is so amazing, I want to share it with you, too.

Darn! I am going to have to stop hanging out with Ophelia…now that we have really started noticing lack programming in the media, it seems I cannot get away from it.

I am not a big TV person because I know it is not the best of influences, plus I usually have better uses for my time. However, last night Read more…

I keep hearing those words from the Astronaut Farmer, a movie by Billy Bob Thorton. He says growing up we heard that we could be anything we wanted to be NO MATTER WHAT, but somewhere along the way we stopped believing Read more…
