A Global Solution Begins With a Personal Responsibility

Whether we like it or not we must all accept personal responsibility for the state of the world we are now living in. A global responsibility that equates to a social awareness and ultimately a personal responsibility to bring about the changes necessary to guarantee a world fit for future generations. Packing our bags and moving away from the problem isn't an option, and if the time ever came when a space age Ark 2 became a possibility, current human nature being what it is its fair to say places would be allocated not with the intent of saving the species but based on position, power and status. Premier VIP class would be the order of the day, and everyone else written off as expendable and left to fend for themselves among the ruins of civilisation.

If you feel this kind of decision would never happen simply open your eyes and you will see these judgement calls being made every single day on a global scale. Life has become a very cheap commodity unless you have power wealth and prosperity to protect you from the realities of life in the 21st century.

We are a human race living in a large global village that is shrinking by the day. Where once upon a time travelling large distances would take weeks and months, the same journey is now completed in a matter of hours, and information takes longer to type than it does to travel around the globe. The more technically advanced we become the more ignorant and unconcerned we appear to be about the consequences of our actions, and the effect they have on the planet that sustains us. Politicians, world leaders and financial power brokers are making short term decisions in order to generate further wealth and prosperity for themselves, decisions that will have lasting and long term negative effects on generations to come.

War, corruption and the pollution it creates in the hearts and minds of those it touches is big business. When war generates trillions of dollars worldwide peace has no value in the eyes of those who see no further than the profit to be made from the next conflict. When pollution is seen as an acceptable price for progress and the destruction of wildlife, tree's rivers and oceans, is written off as nothing more than collateral damage, conservation is simply viewed as an irritation that is paid lip service for the sake of public relations, and then totally ignored and its business as usual.

Division is a means to an end. It is generated and manipulated, created in order to divide influence and control. Politics, religion and wealth are the great dividers that segregate and alienate. Once we buy into this belief it becomes easy to convince us that we have something to fear from those who we are conditioned to believe are different from us. Colour, creed race and religion are just some of the many categories and stereotypes used to reinforce the belief that we have nothing in common with the people we share our home with. This planet is our only home and the people we share it with are not neighbours to be ignored because we think they are not our kind of people, they are our family we must learn to get along with if we want to secure a life and tenure for future generations.

Each one of us has the power to make a difference and that difference begins in our own minds and the way we think. Education is the key to change and the mind that can think for itself and has the courage to break free from its own ignorance and fear is the greatest threat to those who would seek to control the world's resources, the environment, society and the world as we know it. The individual is only powerless as long as they believe themselves to be, each one of us can bring about change in our own lives which must then impact on the lives of those around us. In a universe composed of energy a small solitary action on our part has the power to create a ripple that has a lasting effect and far reaching consequences.

In standing up for what we believe to be right; in speaking out for those who are unable to speak for themselves, in helping those less fortunate we make a difference. Every time we refuse to accept bigotry, hatred and abuse we give strength to others and help them make a stand against insidious forms of injustice. There may be times when we are a lone voice and find ourselves standing alone against what appears to be overwhelming odds but it's at those times we come to realise what's important to us and what we are prepared to take a knee for, or stand up and be counted.

The planet we live on is the only one we have and whether we like it or not each and every one of us has a duty of care to do our bit to look after it. A responsibility to leave it in a fit state for those who have to come after us, a responsibility that we can't negate for it's our life and we alone can live it. We are not asked to become environmentalist overnight, or political activists ready to overturn governments, we simply need to become more aware of the world we live in and make changes in our own lives that reflects a new level of consciousness. We are energy beings whose fabric is that of the universe, any changes we make no matter how small must affect both the global and universal consciousness for in reality there is only one conscious mind on this planet we call home, and we are it.

The Training

Preparation is the Mother of skill. Understanding is the Father of skill. We all love to win, but who loves to train? With all of the variations of those quotes I have used over the years so many times, and in so many ways. I still act and genuinely feel that my own advice is fresh meat I am biting on as if it is new meat freshly killed for survival. Indeed, I am like a rabid wolf chomping on reality when it comes to what counts. I named this article the training because reality is mostly preparation, and the actual action compared to that training is not too much compared to the training it takes to take the genuinely winning actions.

I remember the "Rocky" movies (yes, the "Rocky" movies with Sylvester Stallone), every last one of them including the "Creed" movies so far. Most of the movies as you would astutely notice are not about the fight, most of those movies are about the preparation, training and drama, actually very little winning when you really and realistically think about them. So, that brings me to a point: Reality that is won and successful depends mostly on your preparation to handle it. Think about a singer like Susan Boyle, as a better example than the "Rocky" movie example: She was at least thirty years of preparation, singing in her bathroom mirror and in small halls and training, and a few moments on a big show of winning. That is my point, miracles happen, I believe in them and everything, but they take preparation to be valid and working in a genuine sense that is lasting, or the miracle is just genuine "flash in the pan" luck without that substance to make it last if the miracle successfully happens.

Indeed, we must evolve, grow and prepare to make a miracle work for us genuinely and permanently. The genuine failure in life is to depend on luck and miracles from the beginning without preparation or understanding of what is happening. To appreciate and understand anything fully without doubts or fears, we must train. As Yoda essentially said in "Star Wars, Episode Five: The Empire Strikes Back": There is not try, only do. In the sense I am writing about, that is reality. The person who depends on luck and miracles without preparation essentially tries even if they do succeed, and does not do and just depends on a lucky break or a "miracle" prayer to succeed without consciousness or conscience. The prepared person always does, especially when they genuinely succeed, and if they fail, it is a slip and not a fall, only to succeed later through a better of consciousness and conscience of what needs and wants to be done. So, essentially, to really win without doubt and repeatable results, we must genuinely train and desire, or winning means nothing but a "flash in the pan" like the lucky single three-point shot in a basketball game from mid-court that is not easily repeatable because it is a "buzzer miracle". In this sense, there is not try, only do, also. Reality is training, and our genuine actions and results in it are the championship game, always.

Feeling Frustrated - God Has the Right Timing for Everything

Ever wondered why your dream goals are not manifesting? Be patient. God has all the answers. For more insights, read on.

You may have waited for too long with hope in your heart. But you didn't see your dreams materialize. You needn't change your dream goals. You can meet all of them but you need a shift in mind or attitude or you may think about a detour in the direction towards your goals.

Still feeling frustrated? Affirm all your dream goals and let go of them. In reality I have seen the dreams I let go of and forget, get manifested quickly. While the dreams I cling to and get attached hardly get manifested. So, after you have written down your goals and intention and addressed to the Universe, it is very vital that you let go off gracefully and do not think or worry about them at all. Because the longer you attach to them, the longer and harder it becomes for the dream(s) to materialize.

Another important tip I will pour over here is work on one important goal at a time. After it gets realized, take another goal and work on it. And the process goes on smoothly and effectively.

Still another tip I could dispense here is that even if you are detached from your dreams, you may realize, they are taking too long to manifest. This is because God has the right timing for each of your dreams to manifest and keep your faith. Do not let self-doubt creep in at all as it will hamper the manifestation process.

Your emotions also play an important role in the realization of your dreams. Happy and joyous as well as cheery mood always help to give you what you desire fast by the universe because you become the right vibration match for it and it is able to land on you your most desired goal.

On the other hand, bad energies such as anger, sorrow, worry and doubt will cripple the vibration around you and the Universe finds it difficult to reach you your goal. So remember to be happy and full of fun after you have affirmed your dream goals.

Summing up, yes those are all the reasons why your dreams haven't manifested yet. Abide by the tips in this article and you are sure to have all your burning desires land on your being. Gotcha?

When Your Present Life Isn't Working

What can you do when you believe, that your present life isn't working properly for you-or that it isn't working at all?

This may be a tough question, but it's an important one.

Symptoms that suggest you're not satisfied with your present life include agonizing over your past, feeling sorry for yourself, complaining that "you didn't do this or that," and repeating your old failures.

After taking all the above indicators into consideration, there's one more that's a sure sign you aren't satisfied with your present life: your excuse for not making any positive changes.

Let me tell you something. Whenever people ask me to tell them about my previous traumatic experiences, such as how my family escaped war in my homeland, I refuse to tell them anything.

Am I being rude by not responding to their request? Not at all. I'm protecting myself from allowing a past traumatic experience to ruin my present life.

When people start to talk about previous negative or traumatic experiences, they actually bring those past traumas into the present. In those moments, they live in the past.

Is dragging negative past experiences into the present helpful? No, it isn't.

Bringing a bad, sad, or traumatic experience into the present also brings very strong emotional charges that are connected to that experience.

Of course, if you've had a strong emotional experience, the neural circuits of your brain will remember it forever. Each experience is accompanied by strong emotions, either positive or negative, and each negative experience leads to the release of "bad chemicals" (stress hormones).

When you talk about your past traumatic experience, you're reliving it in the present time, thereby releasing the same stressful hormones twenty or more years after the event has occurred. Your brain doesn't know the difference between the real-life event and your memory of that event, which is creating the same emotions.

The problem begins when people think and feel about the past and do nothing about the present.

You can't change your past. You can change only your present. However, notice that I didn't say you can change everything in your present life.

However, if you believe that something's wrong with your present life, try to change it if you can.

Don't dwell on the past while making excuses about life not being "fair." (Whoever said that life is fair, anyway?) It's just one more excuse for doing nothing to change your present life.

Start to change your life by changing your neurochemistry; you can do that simply by changing the way you think about things in your life.

Remember: Your thoughts and feelings create your present.

When you break the cycle of negativity that surrounds you, your present life will work for you.

Abraham Hicks ~ If You're Thinking These Thoughts, You're on The RIGHT PATH!

Cleaning And Thinking (The Best Action Article You Will Ever Read) (By Joshua Clayton)

When things get stagnant, there is a reorganization needed. With that said, I begin this article. When your thinking, acting and doing reach an impasse, something needs to happen. That something is growth. Are you surprised or shocked at my basic answer? Sometimes growth is the most painful action we can take, conscious or unconscious, but it is needed, always needed if we want to better ourselves or get to a better place. I mean, face it, when we "make it" and are "too content", that is when growth really needs and wants to happen (in that order).

Sure, the above paragraph was rather bluntly real from beginning to end. Sometimes, though, a "big time kick in the pants is needed" for us all to get going and take necessary actions, metaphysical or physical.

Growth! Sure, sometimes "out with the old and in with the new" has love or hate connotations with us in life, but rest assured, in reality growth and change are laws in life, not options right down to multi millennial old growing redwood trees burning down and new forests growing in their place or stagnant societies getting replaced with something that needs (and sometimes wants) to happen.

Lethargy, stagnation, spoiled realities, "comfortable apathy" and sickening decadence, those only happen when growth is genuinely stopped. After all, when you stop thinking and let "others take over", what do you think or ponder that I am talking about. "Once retirement happens, death of some sort is around the corner" is said by so many people who understand while those who do not understand genuinely say those horrible words, "I want to retire and go on to something easier."

So, I end with an example of this of my own: When I was in Junior High School/Middle School in the seventh and eighth grades, I took a basic math class, because I had already taken Statistics, Advanced Calculus, Calculus, Algebra II, Algebra, Geometry and Advanced Fractions (in reverse order from beginning to end, Advanced Fractions all the way up to Advanced Statistical Analysis Math) in the fifth grade and passed with flying colors and "A plus" grades at the private school I was going to before I went to middle school. Near the end of the year, I realized the meaning of "I want to retire from a challenge and go on to something easier" in the worst way. Nothing is worse than a mind that is not growing and does not work to grow productively, nothing is worse than, in a word: Stagnation. Worse than that word is these two words: Decadent stagnation. When things get stagnant, there is a reorganization needed, and decadent comfort and sickening stability or lethargy do not help. Are you ready to go down or grow up now?

Listening to podcasts

Many people have this courage and audacity to read those gigantic books which are good down the line. But for those who do not have time to sit and read, for them there is this thing going popular around the block called" podcasts". Podcasts are nothing but the audio version of video files and are the series of episodes of famous interviews, books and many more things. Download your referred series and listen to it while travelling or while doing any chore. Listening to the famous person's interviews and successful entrepreneur's story will give you more positivity and meaning towards life.

Solo Trip around the Places Which You Desire to See

We people have been chained in a system, where we worship dependency on others majority of times to do even a basic task like going or visiting nearby places. Who said you can't step out of the home without any company. Go try the new places like café around your locality, watch a movie, try a new theatre or maybe sightsee the famous monuments that are drawn in your history books. Who said your trips has to start with bigger things, try taking a stroll in a park alone daily and see the difference. This will completely help you to get ahead in your life peacefully and give you more courage to get out of your comfort zone.

Learn Everyday Something New

Is there any passion or activity you love to do? If yes, then go on and learn about it in a detailed manner. The passion no matter how big or small is if it is your go-to thing, then go ahead. Make a promise to learn each day something new, whether it is cooking or forms of dance. You will inherit that positivity and confidence that no other regular doing can provide you. Be your boss and learn whatever drives you or motivates you to live each day.

Get Up and Dress 

Who said you can dress well for big occasions only, why can't you dress up each day for cheering towards the life that you wanted to live. Dressing doesn't have to mean roaming around the house in tuxedos or ties. It means dressing up clothes that makes you feel pumped up. Wear a nice scent and experiment with your styling and then go do the daily task. The amount of confidence and love you will receive towards your body will ultimately quench your soul only.

Be Grateful

No matter how big you become, you should be thankful to your life and must owe this life which taught you so many things and gave reasons to live. Pay gratitude to things that came your way no matter positive or negative, they came for a reason. Try putting this gesture and see how negativity will be blown out from your life.

You do not have to be big enough to live a leading life, you need to make your life big enough to let you live.
