Reaping what you sow?
There has never been a time in recent human history and evolution where the biblical notion of “reaping what you sow” or the Law of Attraction has been more evident.
Since 2007 when the economic downturn was forecast and widely reported by the media the situation for the world economies at its people have spiralled seemingly out of control.
Everyday, and that’s everyday without fail, the media reminds you of how bad things are and how worse they are going to get, but is that really the case?
Predictions of companies going bankrupt, house repossessions and job losses have now come to bear fruit, but why have you allowed this to happen, because you have all been by focusing your energies on self serving negativity.
Realistically there will be some which will benefit from the current situation; those who have built flexibility into their personal and professional lives. Those who have understood that in every area of their lives there will be peaks and troughs and have factored that into their strategy for survival and continuing to lead rewarding and productive lives.
Whilst some were wringing their hands, feeling sorry for themselves, what have you been giving to those who have always struggled, for example those in third world countries, or those struggling in closer to home, the unemployable, the homeless and those others who struggle with various issues which blight their lives and mean they need support to survive.
From every trauma, crisis, drama which occurs on the local or national stage there are lessons to be learnt if only you opened your ears to hear, your eyes to see and your hearts to feel.
So where are you on your personal journey?
Do you know or care that your life impacts on so many other people lives?
If you don’t believe that’s true then let’s look at the car and banking industry as prime examples at this moment in time.
What do you need to learn from this moment in time? What does mankind need to learn from this moment in time?
Remember just that, this is a moment in time.
From adversity and difficult times hope can rise from the ashes like a phoenix. The election of Barack Obama has bought hope to an entire nation who has also been blighted by economic catastrophe, and galvanised a section of the American people who had given up on the idea that “change would come”.
How remarkable is the human spirit? Start to celebrate your essence and value your skills, abilities and accomplishments. Share your humanity with the rest of humanity because every one of us can make a difference in our own way, and if we all did one thing all our lives would be so different in so many ways.
So what will be your legacy and how far have you got to making it real or has the trials and tribulations of life diverted you from your goals. Remember goals are dreams in action, wake up and live the dream.
Ask yourself these 5 questions:
- What are the positive aspects of your life right now?
- What are the things you would like to change?
- How committed are you to making the changes you desire so you can have the life you want and deserve?
- When do you want to effect this change?
- So what’s stopping you?
My favourite quote comes from Thomas Edison the inventor, who apparently said
“Many of life’s failures are people who did not realise how close they were to success when they gave up”.
I wonder how close we all are to success and how it could benefit not just us, but our families, friends and communities, be they local or global. Surely that’s worth aspiring to and in the words of a Diana Ross and the Supremes song…
“Reach out and touch somebody’s hand, make this world a better place, if you can”.
