How many times have you heard someone say, if I could go back in time I would be this or that? Everyone has heard this said at least 10 times in their lives. It is a silly thought when you think about it. There is no going back. And, if there was a reset button in life, what would be the use in living.
What should truly be concentrated upon is the here and now and the future. Where are you in life right now? What are your plans for the next 5 minuets, not the next five years. These are the questions that one should ask himself, or herself.
Time travel is just a fantasy presently. There is no magic ship that will take you back to 1975, Bridget, when you graduated from high school. You can't go back to the day before you dropped out of Junior College Michell, back during the civil rights movement. You are here. You are now.
What one needs to do is Change the Mind in order to Change ones Life. Instead of pipe dreaming about what could have been, start using your brain, training you brain to make a new reality for yourself. Use your brain to make things happen in your life.
Our brains are capable of unbelievable achievements. Just look around yourself. The home you are in right now was a thought in a persons mind. Your favorite coffee spot where they charge you $5.oo for a cup of joe, excuse me, premium beans, was a thought in ones brain. The car, train, or bus that you ride to work in was a thought in ones brain. These thoughts and innovations made a change in the world. What makes those peoples thoughts any different than your thoughts? I'll tell you. They put their thoughts into action.
Change your mind from I can't, maybe, some day, into I will, no doubt, and today and watch how fast you begin to achieve what ever it is that you want to achieve. Tell yourself that I can do it, I will do it, nothing will stop me, and watch your life change.
Life is all about conditioning. Repeated stimuli molds the soul either positively or negatively. If you tell yourself that it is going to be hard sometimes but I will make my dreams come true and you make the effort to do so, there is a high probability that you will achieve. But on the other hand, if you feed yourself dread and self doubt, there is almost nothing that will stop you from not achieving. Doom and dread are the killers of achievement.
Change your mind from thinking that everything has to happen for you right now. Most good things in life take time. There are no over night successes. Real progress takes time. It takes planning. Change you mind to think in steps, and don't take any short cuts.
Change your mind into a machine that believes in itself no matter what anybody says. Make that machine force you to set objectives that turn into goals that turn into achievements. This is the key. Make the change that will change your life.
There are really no excuses in life. No one believes people that have an excuse for everything. You have to take control of you. You have to take control of your future. No one else is going to do it for you. You have to change you. There is no going back. There is only experience you gain from the past. There is no reset button. Life is now! Life is not yesterday!
We all know that there are tremendous strains in our day to day. There are economic situations that seem to overwhelm us. Money is tight. Bills are stacking up. Less time relaxing. More time worrying. Stop Letting This Get In Your Way Of A Good Life. Change your way of thinking. Teach yourself that you will make it no matter if you have to live out of your car, in a park, next to a dumpster. As long as you have wind in your lungs, you have a chance to turn your life around. There are going to be bad times. But, how you handle those bad times makes the difference of being admitted into a mad house, or making a plan to put you into a brand new house better than the one you lost. It will be done. You can do it.
If you are healthy, and breathing you have no excuses. As a matter of fact, if you are alive and have a reasonable thinking capacity, you have no excuses in life. There are people that have stage 4 cancer that are making it day to day with a smile on their faces because they have decided to use every ounce of energy to live a good life to the end. There are people who are dying of Aids that have changed their minds into fighting to live out each day to the best of their ability. There are people coming home from the war with arms and legs missing. But, they are changing and adapting to their disabilities and are thriving because they decided that they want to live a good life. Their brains are a machine of change and possibilities. There are homeless people who are using their creative abilities to start businesses raising money in creative, legal, ways. So tell me. What's you excuse?
You have everything you need locked inside your head. It is said that we only use 10% of our brains. Imagine if we used 1% more every day. Imagine the possibilities.
It is as easy as this. Change Your Mind. Change Your Life!

Stand Up America! (Don't Accept The Hot Dog)
I just had a discussion with a couple of friends about the current economic crisis in the United States. Michelle gave a speech about how so many people complain about their job situation and how it is revolting to hear them. I said that the reason we are in such a horrible trouble is because Americans have ,for so many years, not been paying attention to what was going on right under our noses. We have been stupid citizens that did not do our civic duty. We did not pay attention to the game that was afoot.
The reason that we are in trouble is lack of care. We did not care about our jobs because we had one. We did not care about what was being done to a fellow employee because it was not happening to us. We didn’t care if the next man or woman was in need because we were not in need. We did not care how the gas prices were rising because we had a little extra change in our pockets . But, that has all changed.
Now, due to the gas and housing crisis, and the war that is killing the youth of America, we are all in the same boat. Now most Americans are trying to decide how to spend our money. Should we buy gas or food? We are asking ourselves questions that have not been asked since the Great Depression.; where will I live “when” the bank takes my home? These Are serious questions.
While I understand Michelle’s’ position, I do not agree with it. People should complain about having a raise instead of hotdogs at the union hall. People should still complain to their union rep when they are not getting what they are entitled to by their agreed upon M. O.U. . This is part of the problem in the country right now.
We know that people are losing not just their jobs. They are losing every thing. But, ask yourself is this a part of the plan to keep Americans off balance and terrified that we will lose every thing we own in order to have us work harder longer hours for less money? Is it the plan to put so much pressure and stress on working Americans to cause us to just go along with the program and say nothing when we are mistreated and under paid? Isn’t it a plan to keep our young over seas fighting a war that we will never win because there are filthy rich men and women that are making un-heard of amounts of money off of the blood of our children while their children are safe at home?
We are in the situation that we are because we were to busy thinking of right now and not the future. We are in this situation because we saw it coming but we were to lazy or scared to stand up and say something or do something about the situation in the early stages. We were living it up in a false world being manipulated by the powers that be. Now we are being toyed with like a cat with a mouse in it’s claws. We are being played like a two stringed violin, all wrong.
Now! Why should you care? Because you are in the cross hairs. You may be next if you do not stand up and fight for what’s right. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness should not just be a phrase that we hear during an election year. It should be, as it was supposed to be, the plan. You should care because teachers in California, the trainers of the future, are being thrown out into the streets . You should care about these teachers because if you think crime is bad now, wait until a whole generation of ignorant children turn to crime to survive. YOU SHOULD CARE! .
AMERICA COMPLAIN! Kick , scream, and demand a better life! Don’t accept the hot dog. Demand change. Care about the future. Stand up and fight for what is right no matter what. Make this government work for you. Make your local and federal government understand that we are their boss, not the other way around. Stop being lazy and scared. Stand up and fight! Stand up and fight! Stand up and fight for your life America! Don't accept the hot dog!
