Doing What You LoveWritten by Daniel N. Brown
My six year old son thinks that being rich has to do with having money. I try to help him understand that being rich involves a whole lot more. If you have your basic needs met, like food, clothes, and shelter, and you have good health, good relationships, and enough income to cover your living expenses, then you are already rich. Now, if you have all those things and are also doing what you know you should be doing with peace in your mind and joy in your heart, then you are super rich! So, most people in America are rich. So then, how is it that so many people are sad and continue to live their lives in disappointment and frustration? I believe answer is they are not doing what God designed them to do. Everyone has a purpose in life. People say they believe that, but many don’t know what it is. I disagree.
| | The Power of ThoughtsWritten by Daniel N. Brown
How often have you gotten started on something new with great positive energy and everything went well in beginning? Whether it was a new job, a new relationship, moving to a new area, a new project, anything. You started off with zeal and passion. But after a while you grew tired. Your positive energy began to turn negative and your thoughts began to work against you. Before you knew it you started creating things you didn't want. It all started when you lost focus on what you wanted. Instead of creating what you wanted you started saying things like, I hate my job, my boyfriend/girlfriend is difficult, I don't like it here anymore, and pattern continued. Then things get progressively worse and you wonder what went wrong. I believe this is what went wrong. You lost control over your thoughts and stopped creating things you wanted in your life. Thoughts are powerful forces of energy and can only come from your own mind. Since you are only person in charge of your mind, you create thoughts that create circumstances in your life. Since your thoughts create reality, you create your reality.
