On Virginia Tech... Energy flows where attention goes.

"Energy flows where attention goes." With the latest example of violence at Virginia Tech, millions of Americans and people around the world are asking, "What's the cause?" We are a nation inundated with violence from every angle. One manifestation of this is the current ever-increasing popularity of violent horror films. In fact, according to an article I recently read in a major paper, "the more violent the better." Graphic images of violence in the media are now common place, and our senses have become deadened to depictions of violence. Is it any wonder that since Generation Y (or the Internet Generation) has grown up their entire lives watching graphic violence in their own living rooms night after night, that this would be programmed into them as "normal?" To add to that phenomenon, as a nation we've spent the last half a decade totally consumed with the "war on terror." Our news brings terror into our living rooms every single night. "You cannot solve a problem from the same level of thinking that created it." --Albert Einstein As Americans, we are surrounded by this "war," and yet the greatest terror we experience is in our own homes and airports. I travel over 200 days per year, and I cannot tell you how many times my bags have been "terrorized" and ransacked... all in the name of national security. Every single time I'm in the airport of late, I hear the announcement repeated over and over again, "The TSA has raised the security threat level to orange." What the heck does orange mean, and how are the colors decided? I've never heard of the threat level as anything other than orange (as close to red on the visible spectrum without being red). Will it ever drop to sky blue, white or pink? Doubtful. That wouldn't be scary enough. Terror has now crept into our school system at great magnitude and the message is loud and clear that we must wake up! In my book Practical Spirituality, I wrote a chapter entitled "Stand 'For' Something Versus 'Against' It." If our full attention continues to focus upon terror, we feed the beast... It's a raging bonfire, and we're throwing another log on it day after day, week after week. Bottom line: The "war on terror" feeds and propagates terror... Violence in our media and in our homes feeds and creates more violence. I'm not suggesting that the "war on terror" or any other single philosophy is totally and completely responsible for the tragedy at Virginia Tech. Virginia Tech is the outcome of a momentum of energy that has pumped violence and terror into our homes and minds over time. The Virginia Tech incident is the REAL "code orange." And if we don't wake up soon, it will only continue to intensify. The only way to stop the madness is to increase our consciousness and shift our focus. And it seems that our friends across the pond are on the right track. A member of Tony Blair's cabinet, International Development Secretary Hilary Benn, said they are no longer using the term "war on terror." According to Benn, "the phrase strengthens terrorists by making them feel part of a bigger struggle." It's definitely a step in the right direction. I encourage each individual to release the "war on terror" from their vocabulary and minds and begin focusing on "propagating peace." As we begin to shift our individual consciousness, we shift the consciousness of our country and, eventually, the consciousness of our planet. It may not occur overnight, but let us begin... "You cannot solve a problem from the same level of thinking that created it." --Albert Einstein Get more quotes like this in my free, daily Thoughts of Power.

It is a sin to be poor.

To quote George Bernard Shaw, "It is a sin to be poor." If you trace the etymology (roots) of the word sin to its Greek origin, you'll find that it comes from an archery term meaning "to miss the mark." In today's society, you're compensated monetarily based upon the value (real or perceived) that you provide. For example, we obviously place more value on our own entertainment than we do our own evolution, transformation and growth. Witness the difference in remuneration between an actor and a teacher. We also have no problem compensating our sports figures multiple millions of dollars per year to chase balls around a field (Tiger Woods pulled in over $80 million last year), but we think that our spiritual teachers are supposed to be paupers. That's faulty logic. It's interesting to me that many of us in Western culture are conditioned to believe that it's not "spiritual" to make (or desire) large sums of money (green energy). This is ludicrous! In the creative story in Genesis, God stepped back on the 7th day to observe His handiwork and determined it was all "good." All of it. Anytime you "damn" any part of creation, you dam God. For where is God not? Where is spirit not? Where is energy not? It's all the same stuff. When you truly understand that the money in your world (or lack thereof) is directly related to the value you provide, then you'll realize that those who aren't making enough of it aren't providing enough value. This is the REAL mistake or missing the mark: an incorrect focus. Quite frankly, I've never had a money goal for the entirety of my life until just recently... and yet I've become a multi-millionaire. Why? My entire focus has been to learn, grow, love and give more value to myself and others. ...and money has come as a byproduct of this focus. "Why do you have one now?" you may ask. Only because I believe that in our society, like Warren Buffet states, "Money is just a convenient way of keeping score." I use the money my company generates as a feedback mechanism to how much value we're providing to the world. No more, no less. One of the messages in my daily Thoughts of Power (sign up free online) is this: "A feast is made for laughter and wine maketh merry; but money answereth all things." --Ecclesiastes 10:19 If you look at studies of those who are "poor," it's comprehensive. Poor is a state of mind, not just an empty wallet or purse. Those in our world who are poor are also invariably poor in their relationships, their intellects, their health... All of which are pillars of Harmonic Wealth®. Poor is a focus, a vibration and mindset that attracts more of the same. Only when you change the fundamental cause of this vibration will you ever experience different results and indeed "hit the mark." Mr. Shaw was dialed in.

Are you ready to make powerful, lasting changes in just minutes a day?

I recently told you about some incredible CDs I've come across, sure to bring you results beyond belief. It's called Paraliminals, and here are a few reasons you've got to hear them: Boost your energy level in just 10 minutes... Improve your memory in only 16 minutes... Feel great in just 18 minutes... Acquire a new behavior in only 24 minutes... Change memories in just 30 minutes... Let's face it... One of the biggest challenges to creating success in any area of life is changing the habitual programming that's buried in your unconscious mind. I'm talking about the programming that's embedded after years upon years of exposure to limiting beliefs of what we can and can't do. These are the kind of beliefs that can sometimes take years to reprogram and replace. Isn't it time you released these beliefs that have held you back from the kind of soaring success, wealth and joy that you deserve? Well, now you can with the help of these powerful Paraliminals CDs. They're created by my friend, Paul Scheele, a true master in the field of whole-brain thinking. And I know you're going to love his Paraliminals program to achieve lasting results in your own life. The break-through technologies of neuro-linguistic programming and whole brain learning coupled with over two decades of research and field work by Paul have made this program possible. Paraliminals work by helping your inner-mind learn new strategies to respond to what's going on in your world. For instance: If you have procrastination issues, your mind learns new strategies that get you moving... If you have negative self-talk or self-sabotage, your mind learns strategies to set you on automatic pilot toward your goals... If you have fears and anxieties, your mind learns how to deal with them and project strength in any situation... If you have money hang-ups, your mind learns how to handle them so you can embrace a prosperity consciousness... Best of all, the program couldn't be easier. There's nothing to study or memorize... No homework or exercises to do. Simply put on the Paraliminal CD of your choice (there's 26 of them to choose from), kick back, listen and enjoy. Most of these sessions are only 17 to 20 minutes each, which means you're spending just a fraction of your day to reap exactly the results you're after. It's really just that easy... And the results are powerful. Download a free booklet to learn more about the 26 Paraliminal CDs... How they work and why they will work for you. You'll also get a discount when you invest in a set for yourself, as well as a money-back promise. Paul will even throw in lifetime Success Coaching to make sure you receive a high value return on your investment. (If you happen to have any challenges in downloading the booklet, email Webmaster@LearningStrategies.com for assistance.) Your collection includes titles such as Prosperity, New Behavior Generator, Deep Relaxation, Get Around To It, Instantaneous Personal Magnetism and Ideal Weight...
