These Things Don’t Have To Kill Us But Might

1 Comment

“We are distracted today by electronics, media, social media and so much more. Our brain space is occupied with alien invaders all day long. All night long. On and on we are bombarded by messages designed to make us weak, powerless, helpless and hopeless.

Advertisers have convinced us that having a human body is a problem only products can remedy. From the top of your head to the tips of your toes and everything in between, inside and out, has a pill, a potion and ointment or a procedure that is required. WOW!

Being human is tough. Then there is your mindset. People are helpless and hopeless, they are anxious, fearful, frustrated, angry and depressed. They need pills or psychotherapy of some form, just to deal with the day to day. Their heads and hearts are broken.

The First Step In Awareness Is To Become Aware Of Your Own BS

Our spirit is ignored. Our relationships suck. Our pocket books empty because we all trying to pursue a vanishing dream, and pay for all the products and fixes we think we need, just to be presentable to others, who do the same thing, at work and play.

We are pressured by social media. We are at a loss without our phones. We battle on Facebook and walk and drive with our heads buried in our devices. We photograph disasters and post it to get likes. We unfriend people because they think differently than we.

‘THEY’ have us convinced we are less than human because we have odors and flakes. We aren’t good enough or smart enough to be anything but a worker bee. So be sure you have multiple jobs so you can afford the products you need because you smell.

Then Become Aware Of The BS Of Those Attempting To BS You

I mean really, we have swallowed this hook line and sinker. We need the next Iphone, the next latest gadget or big screen TV, too. We are consumers pursuing a dream, that is rising in cost, and one almost always out of our reach. We are told to keep buying and spending.

We aren’t told we are smart, intelligent, people who can make their lives a personal and professional success. We aren’t encouraged to become rich and free we are encourage to work hard and retire with a pension promised, but now taken away. It isn’t just the television.

It isn’t just the advertisers. This has become a way of life, of thinking, it permeates our culture. It is in our music, our books, our movies, our clothes, our make up, our parties and pastimes. We are just not ever told we are good enough and the news is WE ARE!

Become Aware And Free Yourself From The Illusions Of Mind

Only we have been hoodwinked and brainwashed to think otherwise. Our pockets empty while their pockets fill. Consider why, they lie. Then realize you don’t have to believe it or participate. You can choose to be different and find and live another way.

I am not suggesting you have to totally disconnect. I am only suggesting you realize that a war is waged for your mind. They want to own it, and so far they have, in so many ways. If they have your mind they have your pocketbook and vice versa. Time to break free.

Live and seek to live the good life of your own creation. Seek to think your own thoughts, not commercialized consumerism and psychological pathologies. Everyone is broken in their book. You’re not. You work perfectly well. You really do. Give yourself credit.

Wake Up To How Incredible You Are And The World Is

Yes, you and I have learned many useless and silly things. We learned to be stuck, to loathe certain things including ourselves. To fear odors and flakes, to desire the next best whatever it is. We learned to work hard at low paying jobs, and that we need more than one.

What we didn’t learn so well is that we were conditioned to be this way. We are conditioned to be citizens so we don’t put up a fuss. We toe the line, do as we are told, buy the products and the sugary drink and we do it all willingly because we didn’t know better. BUT!

We are beginning to awaken. We are beginning to see the seams in the fabric as it is pulled and pushed apart by social issues and unrest, that have remained festering for so many decades. We are waking up to see it is not all that pretty; the mess that has been made.

Celebrate – Delight – Learn – Laugh – Love – Live – Celebrate All

Hopefully, we wake up and recognize there is still a wonderful world, a wonderful people and wonderful opportunities ahead. It isn’t too late and there is still plenty of everything. We can awaken further and learn to get along and help each other instead of compete.

Competition and war are inbred like football and boxing is. We get further, and can better get along, serving and uplifting each other and going the extra mile to add value and respect than we can fighting each other and dividing up everything. Time to stop.

We need to stop labeling the behaviors of ourself and others as bad and begin to see the good. Encourage and emphasize that. Look for solutions that heal and help, that unite and bind. Seek a higher path, a nicer way. We can do this. It begins within each of us. You and I.

If You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You Are Right

Time to wake! It is our responsibility, not someone else’s. It is time we take control of our thinking, feeling and behaving. Make certain it is the very best. Make it exemplary so that is a role model. Let’s become renewed and refreshed. Let’s learn to live, love, and laugh. Then we can change ourselves and the world. Yes! It is time to wake up! AND celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Attitude, Energy, Overcoming Difficulty, Playfulness

You Get Great Benefits Doing This: You Lose When You Don’t!

1 Comment

“Your career is going nowhere. You are in a dead end relationship. Debt is a mountain too high to see past. What to do? Perhaps, your struggling with only one area or all at once. Even it isn’t terrible it can be frustrating. Whatever your situation you need to do this!

Lately, I’ve shared with you the importance of taking a break and being able to walk away, at least temporarily, from circumstances that are brining you down. You want to vacate for awhile to refresh and renew. You want to regroup and gather your resources.

You want to stop considering it a problem and begin to find the blessings within. You need to marshal your mindset and take control. You can’t do that if you are hooked and dangling on a disaster line. You gotta get free to create space and allow things to work out.

Life Is Playfulness – Playfulness Is Sacred And Life Affirming – Play

This IS important! When you constantly fret, are worried or frustrated, in dire spirits about circumstances, when you are spinning your wheels trying to figure out the right move, all you really are doing is continuing to contaminate and perpetuate.

You must get free and optimize your attitude. Take a break. Trust that you don’t know everything, and that somehow, even though you don’t know how, it will all work out. You will land back on your feet. Then keep the faith. Do anything else for a while. Get it?

Take a mental and physical vacation. Leave the situation alone, completely. Get away from it. Camp, hike, swim, play golf, tennis, do anything to create that space to renew your mind and spirit. This is so important I am reiterating much of what I have previously said.

Discover The Magic That Surrounds You Through Playing

‘I don’t know how it is going to work out, but it will and I am grateful.’ Keep this thought in mind. ‘Everything will be fine’. Remember, you can’t see around the bend. Unless you take inspired actions, much of your activity is wasted and does not help. Let go!

You can’t take inspired actions in you aren’t inspired. If your mind and feelings aren’t working together to feel the very best, you are most likely only making things more difficult by trying to figure things out. You are occupied with busy work that is not productive.

Cultivate an attitude of play. You can do this anytime. It is great to spend time doing this when not in crisis mode. Then you have it available if difficult times present themselves. First off, difficult times are nothing but a blessing, if you are wise enough to know.

You Are Either Open And Free To Play Or You Are Not

Second, play increases your high vibes and good feelings. Play with abandon as a little child. Actually have fun. Don’t play to beat someone and make it another job. Play for fun, delight, enjoyment. Let go into wonderful feelings and frivolity. Play enhances learning.

You learned so much as a child through play. You imagined, you pretended, you modeled. You were and are free to play without goals. Simply play. Play games to enjoy. Allow the play to lift your spirits because it will when you abandon concerns and just play.

Be grateful. You can do this anytime, even if it has been a long time. Develop the habit of spending time in play. When you do you clear and free your mind and your spirit. You become more resourceful. You can later, return to circumstances refreshed and renewed.

Never Put Off Fun Until Tomorrow – You Can Have Fun Today

You can get more productively done with a clear mind and clean heart than you can through toiling and worrying. Drop seriousness. Drop the drama. Drop the garbage baggage you have carried for so long and play. Find fun. Then you can bring play to solving problems.

You will fare far better when you do. So play, wildly free and wholeheartedly. Become as a little child again no matter your age or crusty spirit. Become fascinated and adventurous. Let outdoors and wildlife captivate you, while you marvel. Appreciate it all and celebrate everything.” Rex Sikes

Energy, Overcoming Difficulty, Suffering, Worry

Take A Break From Your Troubles Or Else…

Leave a comment

“What can you do when things are wrong? It isn’t going as you want it to go. You struggle and fret and it seems like all you do is spin your wheels. Your thoughts are negative and you feel worried, anxious or worse. Everything you attempt only seems to make it suck more.

What to do? Take a break! Yes, I know it seems counter intuitive. I know you may have many arguments for not wanting to, how you must do something and if you take a break it will only get worse. Except it already has been getting worse with your involvement.

Take a break! Take a breath. Take a day or two to chill, relax, and do something else. Give your mind some space and your batteries a chance to recharge. Seriously, go somewhere fun. Do something fun. Learn to let go and take your mind off it. It hasn’t helped anyway!

Worry Will Never Change The Outcome – Manage Your Mindset

So far, your efforts and thoughts haven’t been most productive. Take a break. You really have to learn how to divert your attention and replenish your positive energy. In hippie terms you’re vibrating ‘bad’ energy. Your thoughts and actions only contribute to the situation.

Remove them, at least temporarily. Go on a mini vacation. Really go and forget about your problems! Go hiking, swimming, golfing, fishing, camping…  Get away from things for awhile. AND while you are away have fun, relax, let go! Right now breathe in and out.

If you are thinking I can’t do that then that is what you must do. If you always do what you always did you will always get what you always got. If you are getting stuck in less than glorious yukkiness , doing more of the same won’t get you out. Get it? Do you?

Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You’re Right

Refresh and renew. Give yourself the opportunity to regroup. Reenergize. Reestablish your power. Focus on the positive. Release expectations of how it will work out. Let go. Give it a rest. Just know that it will certainly resolve. Somehow, someday! Take the break!

If it didn’t resolve to your satisfaction while you were away you will return more powerful, positive, optimistic, and refreshed. You will be better suited to handle the situation than from being overwhelmed. Get it?  Take care of yourself, first! Optimize yourself!  Refresh!

Things always do resolve. Good or bad, they will resolve. If it isn’t to your liking you can change it. If they do work out well or better than expected, all the worry won’t have helped. Learn to let go and trust. Know that everything always does work out! This is important.

Talking About Troubles Is Our Greatest Addiction – Talk About Joys

Learning to know and learning to trust that you will always land on your feet is an important mindset and skill to develop. Learning to let go and recharge are important to have as habits. When the shit hits the wall and it is overwhelming take a break, walk away. Recharge.

Return when refreshed and reenergized. You will be more positive and productive. If you are working on maintaining a powerful and positive mindset, at least a little bit each day, you will soon discover the benefits, if you haven’t already. So stay positive. Stay optimistic.

Know you can’t see how things will work out so stop expecting the worst. Read that again! When you expect the worst you create the worst, you reinforce the worst and attract it. Wouldn’t you rather create, attract and reinforce the positive? Read that again! Well?

Troubles Are Guidelines Not Stop Signs – Refresh And Renew

If so, then do what is necessary. Focus on gratitude and your blessings. Pay attention to what is working. Go have some fun. SOME real fun. Uplift and renew yourself. Put your mind on love, life, peace, blessings, delight, and know everything WILL work out. Trust, let go and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Blocks, Creating The Future, Habits, Overcoming Difficulty

Do This When You Are Gobsmacked By A Block!

Leave a comment

“You’ve encountered a block or an obstacle. You feel yuk. Your feelings, thoughts, and your energy are less than glorious. You want to feel better. What to do? Here’s how you can begin to get free and overcome these challenges. You can move forward. Are you ready?

Keep in mind for manifesting and creating what you want, the goal is to feel the best you can all the time. When you feel good you think clearer. You take action and don’t wallow. Some people don’t believe you can feel good all the time. That is their belief. It is up to you.

You certainly can feel good most of the time. The practical work is to feel as best you are able. If you are down and out, make it your goal to feel a little bit better. All you have to do is feel a bit better. That moves you in the correct direction. Inch by inch you get there.

Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You’re Right

It is too large a leap to go from down and out to absolutely fantastic. It may be possible, but if you are unable to do it,  don’t get down on yourself. It’s natural to incrementally change your emotional state bit by bit, through time. Just do something to feel a bit better.

Talk a walk, go for a swim, read a book, listen to music, hang with positive friends, work in the garden, exercise, yoga, get a massage, listen to an inspiring audio. Simply do something that helps you feel better! It isn’t the amount of better, it is the direction you move in.

Blocks and dips and dives are there to provide contrast. They are there to learn from, go through, and learn to go through, unscathed. These are opportunities. We have been conditioned to avoid, to run, and attempt to eliminate disappointment and challenges. STOP IT!

Drop By Drop The Tub Fills –  Step By Step You Get There

How you learn to go through these determines how much joy you experience in your life. If anything can upset the apple cart, you will always be victim to circumstances, thoughts and feelings. You will be like a cork bobbing in the water. Going the way the current goes.

When you learn to take charge of yourself, and consider everything an opportunity and a blessing, then no matter what happens you can move forward undeterred. At worst, you make yourself feel a bit better. It’s up to you and no one else. Only you, can change you.

Take control of your thinking. It is much easier once you’ve built the habit of filling your mind daily with positive thoughts. It is easier when you’ve already built the habit of thinking well, feeling good and acting right. That is why we read, affirm, listen, and attend events.

The More We  Do The More We Are Able To Do – Take An Action

Condition yourself now. Begin. The going may be slow at first to over come the inertia of the habit of being stuck, but you will do it as you stick with it. Then it gets easier and easier. You may not be able to lift 50 lbs but through exercise, eventually you will be able to, and more.

Get it? That is how we do it. You may have heard this before and this is why. It works! This is how you will do it. Become aware. Take charge of your thinking and feeling. Notice when you feel yuk. Embrace the opportunity to change. You got a signal to change.

Be glad you noticed! Take action! Be glad you took a step! Persist. Be grateful and things will change. Feel the best you are able. Keep going. Inch by inch. Fill your mind. Surround yourself with happy, successful people you can learn from. Do something positive. Help someone else. Smile more. All will be good. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Affirmations, Directed Questions™, Learning, Overcoming Difficulty

You’ll Keep Getting Crap Magnet Results Until You Learn This!

Leave a comment

“Some people have difficulty making affirmations work. They just don’t do it correctly. Then they give up. There’s a way to make it work. When you do you can expect wonderful and powerful results.  It can be incredible! I wrote an article about this many years ago.

I was one of those who had difficulty. I tried many times and quit many times. In 1980 I developed a method, Directed Questions™ that skyrockets the power of affirmations and results one gets. Since then, a number of people have re-published aspects of my work.

They’ve had good success, too. However, those I’ve seen missed the heart of my work for getting the most benefit from the process. Questions are incredible. They work amazingly well. I use both. I write about both, usually at different times, for different reasons.

Everything Remains The Same If You Don’t Control Your Mind

I use both. Sometimes you want to go around blocks that have stopped you. Other times you want to power through blocks. You learn different things by doing different things. There is a reason for learning both. Everything can work. I use both for greater effect.

Sadly, most people affirm negative things. They get things they don’t want! Worry is negative planning. Many people ask wrong questions and get disastrous results. It is important to know the right way of doing things. That’s why I write about each. Get it? You can learn it.

You must learn how to take control of your mind and your mental habits, if you want to make yourself and your life better. You must change some things, if you want things to change. It won’t happen if you do nothing. You remain the same. Start acting in your own best interest. Learn how to do things. Practice gratitude and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Alignment, Conflict, Overcoming Difficulty, Sabotage

Believing This Lie Harms You Big Time!

1 Comment

“If your life sucks, this is a huge why. A friend posted this Carl Jung quote. ‘Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.’ This is the issue for most all people in a nutshell. Your unconscious processes run the show.  You don’t!

How you handle the issue is crucial. Your subconscious does what it does in direct conflict to what you want. You try to get ahead but something prevents you. You want to be happy but think and feel crappy. You end up in debt or doing the same bad habits repeatedly.

Too many, for too long have blamed themselves for the conflict between conscious desire and direction and prior, chronic conditioning. It isn’t sabotage. It isn’t yourself fighting yourself in darkness. It is your brain carrying out automatic learned habits.

Stop Standing In Your Own Way – Get Out Of Your Way

Acquired thinking, feeling and doing habits that do run the show. The subconscious mind carries out all functions. That is its purpose. The conscious mind directs it. Just as a rudder on a large powerful vessel can steer the entire vessel. You have to know how to work it.

Unconscious processes do what they do, until you alter or change them. We have grown up conditioned to blame them rather than to embrace them. Once you embrace your own self for being an incredible learning machine that serves you, it will be different.

Many therapies exasperate the ‘issue’ by labeling it sabotage. The public seems to have adopted this less than glorious, and less than productive, manner of thinking. How you think, how you relate and direct the subconscious makes all the difference. It is crucial!

If We Defend Our Habits We’ve No Intention Of Changing Them

You don’t resolve the conflict by blaming yourself for sabotaging yourself. It drives a wedge between you and your subconscious. It keeps the rift wide and alive. There is a better way. Align. Bring the two together. Heal the rift. Learn to direct the mind how you want.

The subconscious mind is a faithful servant and will do whatever you teach it to do. It is already doing what you learned, without your approval or awareness, while you were growing up. That isn’t your fault. It is however, if you do nothing about it but blame it.

Now is the time you can change from deep within. You can heal conflict and resolve differences. You can befriend yourself and discover an incredible new you. You can be the person of your dreams, happier, freer, complete; living a wonderful life!

I Think It Is Time To Be Happy Again – Enjoy Life Now

You need to learn how to direct your mind so it delivers what you want instead of what is was conditioned to deliver. You need to teach it new productive habits so you start getting what you want instead of bad habits, negativity and worse. Get it? You need to do it.

I’ve shared how to do that, in blogs, videos, seminars and workshops. But no one can do it for you. It’s time to stop being a victim of your own mind and become the victor of your mind. Learn to be thankful for your unconscious processes. Discover how wonderful it is and you are. Get it? You must take action. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Abundance, Mindset, Money, Overcoming Difficulty

The 1% Versus You: You Versus The 1% And Money!

Leave a comment

It is sad there is such disparity between the rich and the poor. Yet, typically the rich, did what others aren’t willing to do. I mean the good rich people, not corrupted rich and criminal rich. The good ones did things others, who aren’t rich, aren’t willing to do.

It’s true, there are some who have nothing, yet, work very hard. I don’t believe, most people want entitlements nor, are most people lazy. Most people want a good life. Most work hard to try to get it. The disparity between the wealthy and those not, is not laziness.

The wealthy worked hard to get ahead too. Instead of working jobs and living pay check to pay check they figured out ways to serve people by creating businesses. Many are smart enough to automate their business. Then, it can work, while they do other things.

Your Beliefs Create Your Reality – Mindset Determines Results

They created business, made investments and got  their money earning for them so they didn’t have to work a ‘job’. They created freedom. Whether they are in the office, playing golf, boating in the Bahamas or dining with celebrities, they are making money. 24/7

They learned not to trade their time for money, but to make their money work from them, so they had more free time. Many still work hard. It doesn’t mean they’re always out partying, but they enjoy the benefits of their money working for them. We should all  learn this.

Some inherited wealth from a person, or persons, who created it. Some had the advantage of growing up with a wealthy, ‘I can do anything’ mindset. If you and I did not, we can still cultivate that attitude and make it work for us, just as those who ‘lucked’ into it.

Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You Are Right

Most of the wealthy spend time reading and improving themselves. Few watch more than 1 hour of television. They are driven by a larger purpose. Many work longer hours than their employees but don’t consider it work. They love doing what they are doing.

That makes a big difference! They love their ‘work’. Many created passion businesses or solved a need of people around them. They solved problems of the multitudes or delivered something people really needed and/or wanted.  The following are a few examples.

Amazon, Uber, AirB&B, toilet paper makers, doorknob and widget manufacturers, Apple, Microsoft, trash removal, name it. Someone has made a fortune helping others live better. That is an incredible key. Serve more people. Make more money. Get it? Serve others!

Even fast food, horrible as it is today, was designed to save people time and money. The poor laborer, or average worker, could do similarly, even in today’s world, but few will. They complain about the rich and sadly the rich complain about the poor.

If You Want Your Life To Change You Must Change Some Things

Today, some think, things are a little more stacked against the worker, trapped living paycheck to paycheck. I do believe some of this is accurate. It is also accurate that there are more opportunities, and in some ways, it’s easier than ever. Mindset makes a difference.

If you believe you can, you might. If you believe you can’t, you might not even try. It’s been said that when America was the land of opportunity and promise, poor immigrants came, worked hard, and became millionaires, because they believed in the promise.

More immigrants became millionaires than the people who lived here. Why? Because citizens felt the government, economic climate, and the wealthy stacked the deck against them. They didn’t try as much or as hard as the immigrant, who wanted to improve their life.

People Don’t Improve Because They Don’t Believe They Can

Attitude may not be everything. Positive thinking may not work miracles, but at least it helps you try to do things you might otherwise not. Mindset makes a difference. You can do the research if you want to learn more about the wealthy and the not wealthy

The rich 1% do not need any more advantages. Some want the wealthy to have more entitlements, more than the poor. This is wrong. They created theirs in numerous ways, even buying legislators. The wealthy can take care of themselves, and do.

The poor can use some help while they transition and learn the skills that can help them improve their lot. Still, many will never move beyond their limiting views of themselves and the world around them. If they did that number 1% would change to 2, 3, 5 or 10%

If You Can Conceive It And Believe It You Can Achieve It

Many of the vanishing middle class, even the upper middle class, won’t do anything either. They could but don’t, because they are comfortable. If you are comfortable you do little to change it. You take more action when things get uncomfortable.

Still, you must act smart. Napoleon Hill pointed out you could THINK and grow rich. That doesn’t mean, as some erroneously believe, that all they need do is think. It meant, you could learn to work smarter, instead of harder. Mindset can make a difference!

Still, many will never even bother to improve themselves. It isn’t a poor, middle class or wealthy issue, it is a personal issue. It is up to each of us, regardless of our lot in life. If you do nothing to change, nothing will change. To be different, you must become different.

Dare To Dream Dare To Dream Big Make Your Dreams Come True

There could be a power play to hold the poor down. I think it is even likely, obviously.  Yet, it is still possible to get ahead, even in today’s world. It is unrealistic to think no one could break through. However, if no one attempts it, no one will. What about you? Where are you?

Even if the is deck stacked, you can either complain about the stack, or attempt to do something about it. I prefer to do whatever I can, in spite of the odds. If you think you can’t do anything to improve yourself or your life, then it is as you say it is. You probably won’t.

Those who think they can, will do. Those who don’t, won’t. Stacked or not doesn’t make the difference.  Some people will triumph in spite of ridiculous odds. Some never try. It is a decision each of us makes. I refuse to let the 1% or reports determine my future.

You Live As Large Or As Small As You Accept – Mindset Matters

I do believe the 1% will do anything they can to hang onto their lion’s share; including, making it seem impossible you, or anyone, could do better or become one of them. They want limited membership. They will make it seem through the media, of all kinds, that you are stuck.

Don’t believe it. Believe in yourself! Nothing is impossible to those willing to attempt it. If they don’t make it as big as they hope, they still get further than if they never try. Mindset matters! Put your mindset to work for you. Get your money working for you. Develop yourself and your life. Learn how to celebrate everything! Rex Sikes

Why Be A Loser When You Can Be A Winner?

Leave a comment

Why think positive? Isn’t it unrealistic? As I point out, what if it is unrealistic, so what? What is the alternative? Realistic and bummed out? Realistic and a wimp? Realistic and stuck in problems of one’s own making? Nope, I prefer positivity to that. Don’t you?

For me, I like that I can move ahead and not be stuck, or not be stuck for very long, when I think positively and powerfully. Life is good and life is great. The world is abundant in my way of thinking and there is plenty for all. They deserve it. You deserve it. I deserve it.

I prefer to think positively, about possibilities and solutions. I like thinking optimistically. I enjoy moving through challenges optimally. Life is a process. Life is contrast. Life is all sorts of things. Life is flow. I enjoy going with the flow and all the sights I see along the way.

Never Underestimate The Heart Of A Champion – Winners Win

There is light and dark, good and bad, positive and negative. One can focus on whatever one chooses. Whichever one chooses has an affect and consequences. I prefer to focus on the light, the good and the positive. I prefer to take responsibility for my focus and my life.

Some people are stuck in a quagmire of their own creation. I have been. I could be again. I prefer, learning and developing to minimize that as much as possible. I want to accept responsibility for making my life the best, for how it turns out, good or not so good. Get it?

I prefer the attitude of Conor McGregor who determined to win against Floyd Mayweather.  He spoke well of his opponent. Took the loss graciously. Stated he didn’t anticipate some of Mayweather’s moves or skill and is moving on. He may box again. Cool!

Every Champion Was Once A Contender Who Didn’t Give Up

He is still a winner and a champion. Defeat doesn’t appear to rile him. I like the attitude I can see from him. Though he lost the bout, his attitude was marvelous. That is what I want to do, don’t you? If you get knocked down, get up and keep going. Smile and move.

Learn from it but don’t wallow in it. Cut the losses and decide to make new  things happen. Get up and move forward. Make the day a better day. What we focus on is what we get back. We attract WHO we are back to us. So, who we are and who we become is important. Be the best. Be happy and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How To Transform Your Crap Magnet Into Your Opportunity Magnet

Leave a comment

“Are you ever concerned, as others are, about bad things or negative events? What should you think, and do, about them? Do you wonder why they happen and how to enjoy better things, events and circumstances? I’d like to help clarify some important concepts.

Bad things are blessings! This may seem difficult to comprehend but you will benefit  greatly, once you are able to embrace this. ‘Bad things’ help you to know what you do want. Whenever ‘bad things or negative thoughts occur you think or say, ‘I DON’T WANT THIS’.

What do you want instead? This moment, is an an opportunity to find, and focus on, what you want, and make what you want, begin to happen. Immediately ask, ‘WHAT DO I WANT?’  Focus on this. Then, instead of hoping, start committing.  Decide to be different!

Speak What You Seek Until You See What You’ve Said – Create

Hope is fine, but wishing and hoping won’t change things. Resolve to make it different. Decide. Commit. Find, what you  want. Clarify it. Specify what you want. Focus on that. Decide to bring it about. Think, ‘I am going to do this, that’s it! I’m going to make this happen!’

Stop being a victim of negativity and circumstances. Resolve that you are bigger than any obstacle. Mindset is important! Fix your mind on the positive good you want! Determine to make it happen. Become invincible. Marshal your positive resources. It’s up to you!

Don’t worry about how you will do it. First, decide to do it. The how will come after you make the decision and begin taking action. You go as far as you can see, and when you get there, you will see farther. Get it? YOU are the force that changes things for the better.

What You Focus On Expands – You Get What You Focus On

If it is going to change for you, YOU are going to make the changes. You are the one who makes the difference. Get this right! You are the positive, powerful, force in your life, or you are not. Which is it? Make the decision to take charge. Set your attitude. It’s everything!

When you focus solidly on what you want, when you know precisely what you want, your subconscious, looks for opportunities, you would otherwise miss, while preoccupied with negative events and thoughts. When you change your mindset, everything changes!

Move forward. Be willing to make good happen. Begin now. Focus on the good. Be grateful for the opportunity. Consider the negative events, not as negative, but as a blessing for you to get clear and make good things happen. Feel the gratitude. Feel the resolve. Feel the energy and flow. When you do EVERYTHING CHANGES! Energy flows where you attention goes. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
