Build Your Positive Expectation Muscle
When you look into your future do you expect to see good things that could happen or bad things? Or perhaps you live day by day and have more of a Zen like attitude, letting life unfold without any attachment to the outcome (Ya right! Wouldn't that be great!).
I prefer to have an attitude of the first and I'm a "wanna be" of the third and admit to occasionally finding myself sabotaged with fearful and worried thoughts.
Now, here is what I know about having expectations - good or bad, ultimately no one knows how the future will unfold so it's your choice to decide how you want to direct your thinking.
If you are looking into your future and worrying about all of the potential problems that may arise, you may feel a sense of safety, however it certainly isn't any fun and it will rob you of your creative juices, inspiration and energy.
I'm not saying you shouldn't be a grown up and look both ways before you cross the street. That would be foolish. I'm simply saying that by spending your waking hours worrying weeks before hand just in case something might happen is hazardous to your health and you will ultimately deprive yourself of present moment enjoyment.
I suppose the upside to expecting the worst is that it may in fact turn out great in the end and you could be wildly surprised. Think about how many exams you were worried about and ended up passing with flying colors! I just don't think the negative energy expended is worth the while.
So, truth be told, the gremlins (negative voices) in your head can run wild in a desperate attempt to keep you from harm but in doing so, it means you will live in a constant state of fear. So to avoid possible harm you will actually get the definite feelings of fear and deplete positive energy instead and that's just not cool.
I'd also like to add that I've been the recipient of challenges that have made me start to question how "secure" life really is but the deal is, stuff happens, sometimes really bad stuff, and it's easy to let our battle scars build and our expectations dwindle.
On the flip side I've also been the recipient of several "good fortune moments" which reminds me how powerful it is to fill your positive expectations with enthusiastic energy.
Ultimately the vibration of positive expectant energy has been proven to be way higher and will attract to you many good fortune moments, in the most unexpected ways! Just last week we had 4 young girls come and rake our yard for $5.00 - I gladly paid them $20.00. We also just received an unexpected $3000.00 out of nowhere and had my book keeper find me money I didn't even realize was there!
So my message today is to start strengthening your positive expectation muscle. Let some enthusiasm out. It's a powerful magnet that will attract to you good things.
Or while you are taking the reasonable precautions that keep you safe, ask yourself what is the really yummy stuff in your life that perhaps you have felt inspired about but have not been grabbing or working towards because of negative expectations?
Are you over reacting to worry and under reacting to excitement?
Your Success Assignment
What have you been doing or contemplating doing that you've been worried about? Perhaps it's writing a blog, transitioning into a new career, taking a dance lesson, starting a new meet up group.
Take out a piece of paper and write that one thing down at the top.
Next, write down what you would really want to come of that situation. What would make this experience truly yummy and make your heart sing? Let yourself go here -no editing!
Now, notice that the sky didn't fall when you let yourself indulge in the positive expectancy and visioning. Notice how you felt in your body. Did you get excited?
Last thing, commit to doing one thing towards what you wrote down. Start with a small step - and expect the best with each step you take. And while you're at it, let yourself have fun! Write me and let me know how it goes...

Re: Great start, but no finish
- My advise is FOCUS on your business.
Focusing is the main factor to succeed on business. If you have a great idea, then follow it only, don't look anywhere else. It is especially essential in an online business. Because there are a lot of mind blowing sales letters promising millions dolllars or overnight success, people find it difficult to concentrate on one business and they lose their energy.
Concept is simple.
1- Have a good idea;
2- Build your business on it;
3- Monetize your business;
4- Promote it;
5- Build list of responsive customers;
6- Maintain You Business.
Focusing and not fearing from competition (instead you can learn from competitiors) are main tips of billionaires ,BTW.

Re: Stay positive!
- Great theme
My favorite book the ageless "Power of Positive Thinking" and I do not read many of these Motivational Books, Attitude is everything - a positive one is ore likely to bring positive results
According to my Pisces horoscope - I am told that by my birth I am to be moody. We all have those bad days, but even though moody by nature, I tried to keep those days down to 4 or 5 a year - not bad for a Pisces
Hang with the positives, lose the negatives
