Some things are easy to change through behavior. Sometimes it is about having a more positive outlook on life, and going forward. Sometimes it takes a little more.
This Christmas and New Years I was able to kind of take a minute and reflect on the past year. This can be hard to do while you are living it, and you have a lot of stress from different things. Nothing like taking stock during vacation!
A lot of really great things have happened this year that I am so thankful about. I know I harp about the economy a lot (because it’s so freakin bad and scary!!!) but in such a bad time, I have a lot of good. I really want to embrace that good and try to keep it going for another year. Sometimes spellwork can be done just to keep the positive flow going – physically and emotionally.
My sister has gone through some major changes in her life. She attributes them partially to reading “The Secret”. She is not a very “new age” type of person. She is very practical, and incredibly smart. She does not throw herself into self help books looking for the answers to life, but does acknowledge the positive things they can provide.
So anyway, she said she gets it. And to paraphrase her, she said that her understanding of it is that if you are negative and down all the time then you are going to receive negative in return. You put the bad out there and the bad is all you are going to get.
Now it is much easier said than done to change your outlook on life. When things are going badly whether it is love related, money related, or something else, it is hard not to feel isolated in your pain. It hurts! And it is a fresh, in your face, down and dirty kinda hurt! It is. I understand. I have been there. I have been through hard times in love, I have been broker than broke, and I have experienced losses.
But wallowing in the bad will not help you. You have to find a way to turn it around and love your life. Love the positive you have been given. Of course, make goals and strive for more, but start with yourself. Start within.
Ask yourself some hard questions. Figure out what you are putting out there. If you want love but you aren’t willing to give love, then why do you deserve it? Why do you deserve to get this job more than another person does? Why do you deserve to get money in your life? If you have been cursed then did you do anything to bring that curse upon you? Do not be a victim. Take responsibility and make a change. Think hard about these things and try to make yourself the person who does deserve the good. And if you are a good person that doesn’t mean you get to stop! Keep striving! Keep being a good person!
