Day 52

Holy Smokes it's almost over. 8 days until the end of my experiement. I have a lot to share and will start posting my findings this week. I just received a fantastic email from a friend.....it's leading edge so prepare yourself.....

Abraham on How the Economy Will Recover

This past weekend, Abraham-Hicks (teachers of Deliberate
Creation) were questioned about the economy and they responded in this way:

"It's going to take some people not feeling fear, to focus on vibrational reality until it comes enough into fruition...

Worry not. We've seen this before and we know you will come out of it. Balance will come back." -- 10/7/08

Yesterday CNN published a report citing that 6 out of 10
Americans believe a depression is likely.

Please note: In this same report, not a single economist
thought that this was the case.

Citing social "safety net" programs that were not in place at the time of the Great Depression(Social Security, unemployment insurance and insurance on bank deposits) along with a commitment by the Federal Reserve and world banks to keep resources moving through the system, Anirvan Banerji (director of research for the Economic Cycle Research Institute) stated "We're a long, long way from a depression."

However, Banerji also pointed out the following kicker:

"The fact that the majority of people believe we are going into a depression ensures that the recession will get worse."

And so I ask all of you today:

"At this critical time, are you choosing to align yourself with
the problem or align yourself with the solution?"

What you are thinking matters...

Let's be real, people. What we choose to think and believe right now does matter...in very practical ways.

Putting metaphysics aside, there are dozens of practical reasons to keep our wits about us and to resist the pull of fear.

In terms of the Great Depression, we can learn much from the man who understood what it would take to turn the tides at that time.

In his Inaugural speech, Franklin D. Roosevelt spoke the
following words:

"Our distress comes from no failure of substance. We are stricken by no plague of locusts. Compared with the perils which our forefathers conquered because they believed and were not afraid, we have still much to be thankful for."

And, of course, he understood the challenge at the heart of the matter:

"Let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself - nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."

What you can do today...

There are tools and processes that you can learn today that will enable you to come "back into balance" when you find yourself slipping into fear and doubt.

And mastering this "turnaround" ability is the greatest gift that you can give yourself (and your family, and your community...) at this time.

*So how do you make the turnaround? Just ask, I have a few suggestions......
