Quote of the Day

"What you do speaks so loudly, that I cannot hear what you say."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Walk the walk

We all know that saying "it's easier said then done," but it seems as though a lot of us out here like doing what's easy because all we do is talk. Talk, talk, talk and nothing gets done and no action is taken. It's about time that we stopped talkin that talk and started walkin that walk. Excuse language but ain't SH*T else to talk about, you know what you suppose to do and what you need to do so do it. First of all people really don't want to hear you talk, especially if you're the type that just keeps repeating yourself talking about what you're gonna do. Who are you really trying to convince?

Worry

I never knew what the meaning of worried was, I mean I had a understanding of what it meant but the true meaning is interesting. I thank GOD for all the knowledge he has blessed me with, I understand that I could never have it all, and the day you stop learning is the day you die..But like I said I thank GOD because the more wisdom and understand we get the less CONFUSION we have and we can live without FEAR, WORRY free...

THE MOST POWERFUL LAW IN THE UNIVERSE

The Most Powerful Law in the Universe

"Our thoughts and feelings are the colors that paint our reality." - Eva Gregory


Are you aware of what a powerful creator you are? Do you know that everything that is happening to you or has ever happened to you is, without exception, in full response to your thoughts — and more importantly — the emotions behind those thoughts? Take a look at your life. There are probably some areas you're really happy with and some areas you're not so happy with. You may even believe you are a victim of your circumstances. I'm here to tell you, you are not a victim! It's simply a matter of understanding how to play the Game (of Life) by understanding the rules...the Laws that define the Game.



Would you agree that whether you believe in the law of gravity or not, it exists? It is the same with Universal Laws. They exist and affect you whether you are aware of them or not. However, Universal Laws are far more powerful than gravity. Gravity affects earth. Universal Laws are infinite and beyond all boundaries.


Of all the Laws, the single most powerful law is the Law of Attraction which says: "That which is likened unto itself is drawn" or more simply put, "Like attracts like". This means that what you are focused on, you draw to you. Here's how it works. When you are focused on what you want, you are attracting to you what you want. When you are focused on what you do not want, you are attracting to you what you do not want.


Okay, I can sense you rumbling out there and your thoughts are probably going something like "So if it's that simple and clear, why haven't we known this before?" Or, "I've been focused on wanting more money for years, so why hasn't it come to me?"


The Law is that simple. However, our thoughts are usually very unfocused and running in many directions at once. For example, you may say "I want a sleek new sportscar." In that moment, the Universe is orchestrating circumstances and events to bring it to you. And yet, usually, in the same sentence, we sabotage ourselves by saying something like, "but I can't afford it." So, in essence, the Universal forces say, "Wait a minute. Now he says he can't afford it." And you stop the energy flow.


So, take it a step further. When you are thinking about wanting a new sportscar, but feeling you can't afford it, where are your emotions vibrating? In most cases, they are vibrating in feelings of lack; feelings that you want something you really cannot have. Can you see how, by not understanding this Law — that our thoughts and emotions are our attraction base — we hold things away from us we could otherwise have?


Let's take the example of money. You say you've been wanting more money for as long as you've been alive. When you think of wanting more money, how do you feel about it? Happy? Elated? Or frustrated? Angry? Sad? Maybe, jealous of those who do have money? In my experience, this particular subject has more people on an emotional roller-coaster than all other subjects combined. The good news is that it doesn't matter how long you've felt this way or how deeply...you can literally turn it around and begin flowing money to you by consciously and deliberately practicing the Law of Attraction through your thoughts and feelings.


Anything in your life you want to change, you can — simply by understanding the Law of Attraction, and choosing to deliberately change your thoughts and constantly reach for the thought that feels better. The way you predominantly feel about any given subject is your barometer for knowing what your balance of thought is on that subject. The circumstances of your life is another indicator. If you're ever wondering which end of the barometer your thoughts are on, check in with your emotions. Your emotions never lie about the way you are flowing your energy.

CONFUSION

Confusion just like fear an earlier blog entry is something else that has plagued us. For years, we have second guested ourselves, wondering what to do, what we should be doing, and how we should be doing it..


Today was a good day we got a lot done. It's funny how when we stopped second guesting ourselves and wondering how we would get things done, and started getting them done. We began seeing real progress..Earlier Brownsville Signs and Printing called me and told me that the "proof" for the Devine Property Management Inc. flyer was ready, so we went to check it out. And it was crazy, we were truly impressed with how it was put together. They hit it right on the head, we couldn't ask for anything more. Another week and we can hit the streets with those. In addition I was able to connect with Straw and he agreed to a merger between UnJust Clothing and Antonio Valourous. We got some money together so we could get some supplies and get started putting some sh*t out. Things are looking very promising on both sides so as long as we keep on pushin, we'll be straight in a minute......




con·fu·sion


1. Disturbance of consciousness characterized by inability to engage in orderly thought or by lack of power to distinguish, choose, or act decisively

2. a mental state characterized by a lack of clear and orderly thought and behavior

Quote of the Day

"Luck is a opportunity for the prepared.."

Vision and Knowing

"Just because your eyes are open don't mean you are seeing, just because your eyes are closed don't mean you are sleeping". It's another day at the office trying to make it happen. Having all the knowledge doesn't mean that you have the power but having all the knowledge and applying that knowledge is having the power. We are now taking the neccesary baby steps to accomplish our mission and pushing harder everyday. It's something like being at the begining of a forest and not knowing where to start but some how finding your way through and being able to see where you are going. Now you have your vision it's time to get real active, down and dirty and hit the pavement. As the famous Bob Marley would say " I can see clearly now".

7 Qualities of a Successful Person

7 Qualities of a Successful Person
Guest Author - Katie Byrd

The qualities of a successful person can vary – depending on the person. But there are 7 main qualities and only one success quality they all share in common. Guess what?

Persistence!

Persistence is the only common success denominator of all successful people. As Calvin Coolidge said in one of the greatest quotes of all times:

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is filled with educated derelicts. Perseverance and determination alone are omnipotent.”

Seven Main Success Qualities of a Successful Person

1. Know what you want. I’m not just talking about business goals. You need to be crystal clear about all your desires. Everyday hundreds of things tug at our attention. If you don’t know what you want, you’ll end up someplace else or all over the place.

I’ve known people with lots of great success qualities who worked hard, but still ended up just spinning their wheels and getting nowhere. You need to be crystal clear what success means to you. That's how you know when you get there. Only then can you say, “I made it! I achieved my goal! I am successful!”

2. Prioritize. It’s not enough to know what you want; you need to have your priorities in order too. There are many times when you have to choose – even among your own goals. So write down what you want in priority order and check your list whenever you get confused. But don’t engrave it in stone. You’ll need to make adjustments as circumstances change.

3. Manage your time effectively. Effective time management is an essential skill that takes time and practice to master. Few people become successful without it. When you’re on the track to success, organizing all your activities, goals and priorities in your head is just way too difficult. It needs to be written down.

4. Think and speak positively. Although positive thinking sounds like a cliché, pessimists never succeed. Successful people generally use optimistic self-talk, an attitude of gratitude and a positive perspective to stay enthusiastic, creatively motivated and consistently moving towards their vision.

5. Take action. No matter what anyone says, you can't get what you want by just thinking about it. However, if you’re intently focused on a clear enough vision of what you want, you’ll just naturally start taking the appropriate actions to reach your goal. You’ll get great ideas, know what to do and be motivated to do it.

6. Pay the price. Sorry, there are no free lunches. You have to work to get what you want. But when you know how to properly motivate yourself, it’s easy. You'll feel excited about pursuing your goals and truly understand that “the joys in the journey.”

7. Be persistent. Finally, we return to the only quality that all successful people share – they never give up! And, because of that, they tend to make far more mistakes and have far more failures than unsuccessful people. But failure only stops failures. Successful people get right back up on their feet (possibly to fail again), and keep on keeping on, until they finally succeed.

And if you follow these guidelines with patient persistence, you'll succeed too.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

“You block your dream when you allow your fear to grow bigger than your faith.” - Mary Manin Morrissey

FEAR

It seems as though fear stops us from following our dreams and doing what we really want to do..Fear of failure, fear of change, fear of the reactions of others are just a few that hold us back. Why is that, why are their so many people unsure of themselves, talents, abilities, know how?

"Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world." - Ralph Waldo Emerson


"Don't waste life in doubts and fears; spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour's duties will be the best preparation for the hours and ages that will follow it." - Ralph Waldo Emerson




On the path of greatness

Today was just another day on the path to greatness.. (on the road to riches) Everything is going well right now and it seems like everybody is on a emotional rollercoaster. Excitement, anxiety, fear are some of the most common. But, rather we're ready for it or not it's coming. So, we'll keep taking these baby steps on this great path.

THE PATH OF GREATNESS WITHIN YOU
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are quick to take offense, then you'll be under the control of those who you find offensive.

If you are easily angered, then your actions will be dictated by those who anger you.

If you are obsessed by what other people think, then you will be imprisoned by their thoughts.

If you yearn for easy answers and quick solutions, you'll fall prey to people who offer you nothing but promises.

If you find the truth too difficult to bear, you'll be enslaved to those who tell you what you want to hear.

When you have the courage to think for yourself, the strength to accept what is, the commitment and discipline to make a difference, then you experience freedom.

You have true freedom to live with purpose, joy and fulfillment.

Let your life be defined, not by reactions to what others do, say, or think but rather your own unique vision.

Raise your eyes above the pettiness and follow the path of the greatness that is within you.

"If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got."

Why is it that people naturally resist change..

Slow Motion, Better then no Motion

Today was a good day a lot got accomplished. For one we got this wack a*s 3 in 1 scanner, print, fax to work. Well, at least scan and print, the fax won't work with the video phone, so.. Being able to print is a start I was getting tired of paying that ol head in the resource center $3 to print something off the internet. On a larger note we were able to apply for a DUNS number (google it if you aint corporate thuggin) Also today we started the business account with Chase bank today, the starting balance is none of your business just know it's some zeros behind it...

No One Can Hit You as Hard as LIFE can..

The world is a mean and nasty place, it doesn't matter how tuff you are, it will beat you down to your knees and keep you there if you let it. Nobody is going to hit you as hard as LIFE..It's not about how hard you get hit, it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done, you have to be willing to take the hits and not pointing fingers saying you not where you want because of him or her or anybody. That's what cowards do and you're better then that. -Rocky
