Maybe We “The People” Are To Blame For Our Current Economic Woes…

Think about it.

An economy slows down and heads towards a recession.

Why?

Because we stop spending due to a fear of losing our jobs and livelihood…  Jobs are lost because we stop spending. You see the cycle?

A recession is just an illusion that we create out of fear feed to us by media speculation and the doom and gloom they paint.

Maybe it’s time we stop taking all this garbage and start taking control of our lives.

Below is a short text that I recently came across written by Dr. Joe Vitale.  He was one of the teachers featured in the book/movie The Secret.

Stop it!

Stop paying attention to the media.

Stop paying attention to the doom and gloom of anyone and everyone around. Stop getting sucked into being a victim.

STOP IT.

You won’t go anywhere buying into the cultural trance that there isn’t enough and times are tough.

You won’t accomplish your big goals, or do anything of real greatness, as long as you give in to outer circumstances.

You have to take back your power.

You have to take back your control.

You have to “awaken.”

Recently I told a woman who was interviewing me that I was homeless and in poverty only as long as I stayed stuck in survival “thinking.”

As soon as I put my mind on what I “wanted” to have instead, I began to shift and get better results.

This can happen for you, too. It took me ten years. You can do it in one weekend.

But you have to stop listening to the media paint a picture of darkness.

The media paints it by finding something dark to report on, whether it’s true or not. You and others listen to it, believe it, and before you know it, you have “created” what the media painted.

They predict a recession before there actually is one.

But people believe the media, fall into fear, stop spending, and suddenly a recession is here.

This has to stop. And it can stop right now.

Break free from money worries.

Break free from job worries.

Break free from health worries.

Break free from love worries.

Break free — PERIOD.
