Words of Wisdom

Jason W. Moxon
I think sometimes even if people don't want to actively listen, you can't help but hear. And then it's stuck in your subconscious mind for you to ponder beyond your control, eventually leading to a change.
Heh, yeah I guess so but no day is a better day to tell someone something uncomfortable.

like I said, I was in the weird mindset too, normally I probably would've bit my tongue, even though I have been wanting to talk to her about it.  I think I planned to do a more thought out approach though, and then I guess she just caught me with a scared moment at the wrong time heh

Money and Nothing

I've realized that while I had a well paying job and plenty of money to spare, I never used it wisely. That goes well beyond not investing in stocks and bonds, IRAs and other typical retirement plans.

Now that we've had to deal with a low income (nearly nothing) for the last two months, it actually helps to give me clarity on what I need to do with those extra bucks when the time rolls around that we're back in a more abundant lifestyle.

We need to use our money for advertising any and all ideas we have. There is no reason why I can spend $1,000+ a year on RedBulls but not dedicate the same dollars to ads online or even in radio spots. Spending $1,000 annually would be a great start for any business and while there is clearly a chance it will net nothing, the reality is the money is clearly a waste otherwise. The worst that can happen is that we learn from our advertising mistakes and get better and spending in the future.

Finding My Passion, Finding Your Passion

For the last couple of years, I've been reading more and more about wealth building. I've always had big hopes and dreams -- but I've never had the circumstances in place to dedicate myself to an idea for long enough to realize the full potential (or failure) of a given idea to learn from the experience.

That's a weak excuse and only six months ago I would have immediately corrected my mindset to a more positive perspective. And to some extent, I feel myself doing it internally as I type. I don't want to believe -- or even allow myself to believe for a short time -- that I don't have what it takes to push through to the big idea that's finally going to click in all the right places.

The cold hard facts show a pattern of getting excited about something and diving in head first, going strong for a week or two, then always get halted by something. Life happens. I tell myself, "You can take care of this issue, and then you'll be right back to work on your latest idea... this is the one."

But... life has a way of taking longer than you expect. One little distraction easily becomes two, and next thing you know... it's been almost three weeks since you touched your big idea. By then, my passion is always gone and I struggle to pick back up where I left off.

My rational mind quickly observes the obvious: "This wasn't your true passion. If you were passionate about something, it would show. You'd have the burning desire to make it happen no matter what you have to do."

There Are Too Many Awesome Things.
There are so many things that interest me. I could read for days at a time about random subjects that I stumble across online while searching for a totally unrelated subject... I'm sure everyone has been there once or twice.

I see things that are interesting and new. I feel the urge to explore it and learn it inside and out. I read all I can about the subject and I feel like I could take on the world. Silly I know. But deep down I'm a dreamer and a big dreamer at that... I have something big to offer; my guts know this to be true. I just have to figure out what, exactly.

Why can't I back away from everything - every distraction of life; and spend some time soul-searching for my perfect contribution to the world?

My passion is a moving target. I can only keep shooting and hope I hit myself right in the target some day.

Random Thought of the Day

I get these feelings of purpose when I see numbers that increase with sets or groups.

For example, this morning I was looking at the pricing structure of this game development platform/framework called Moai. They have tiers of price packs which include, among other things, the number of API calls included with each level.

They go from a free tier of 100,000 to a paid tier one step up that increases to 2,000,000. Something about these numbers and this jump reminds me of the time I spent playing EverQuest.

I like progressive numbers.

Why Little Kids Die

Thought: Why Little Kids Die

Maybe the parents project their fear onto them and being so close to their source of life (spirit) they are more prone to absorb this negative energy and therefore their bodies take on the sickness. Imagine a pessimistic parent who during their entire pregnancy fears losing the child or a deformed child. Then, after having a healthy child fear them being hurt or injured. The child senses the fear and lowered energy vibrations and knowing nothing else by their innocence can only manifest the sickness their parents fear.

Or maybe, given that we all have a choice in everything we do, a child that is the result of two parents who's life paths have not gone the way to their true purpose and therefore aren't the proper environment for this life to reach their purpose. Perhaps the struggle they will have is too great, and instead of looking at it as an act of cruelty, it should be viewed as an act of forgiveness and mercy. In other words, maybe when two people who shouldn't have had a child together do so against all odds, the universe has to bring itself back into balance by ending the life of the child that should never have existed in the first place.

This may sound heartless but that is only the case if you believe there is nothing but darkness after death. Perhaps they will go back to the ultimate life source and be in peace having neither failed nor succeeded in a life on Earth that was never intended. It might have even been their choice to come ever so briefly to serve as a lesson in love to the parents.

Allergic To Negativity

I'm allergic to negativity.

When I read negative responses to concepts I want to believe in, I start to question everything that I've ever known to be true. To keep an open mind to every idea that each person rightfully believes makes everything seem such a delusion. 

What is real?

What can you believe?

What can you dedicate your life to and not discover to be a fraud only when it's too late?

What is the meaning of everything that happens outside the tiny scope we call our lives?

The world seems to be way too complicated at times, which is why the very thought of the Law Of Attraction makes so much sense and is so... attractive to me. Why wouldn't we be in control of everything that happens to us; and what could we accomplish if all of humanity were all on the same page in this way of thinking?

I know from personal experience that my life got exponentially better once I stopped dwelling on the negative events from my past. Everything is the past; the very moment you end this sentence the thought is already the past. 

Thinking of a positive future has brought me to this stage in my life where I feel like I am finally seeing clearly for the first time. When it comes to money there is surely no guaranteed "get rich quick" plan that any random person could take advantage of on a whim. However, it doesn't seem the odds against you are as unlikely when you consider that most people aren't even open to that kind of possibility. They would ignore it as though it doesn't exist while those who can look at the world with hope and a positive mind are free to casually take from it what they please, including as much money, success and happiness as they want to achieve. 

There is always a certain level of action that is required and, with this action, a risk that can only be overcome by perseverance. The truth to me is evident in the world around us. Everything that exists is an example of someone making something happen. Everything. Why would you doubt reality? Even if we don't comprehend fully the universe we live in, no matter how much some people would like you to believe they know it all, at some point you have to decide on a path and stick to it until it takes you to the next phase in your life. Fear of failure and change combined with the inability to have an open mind to better possibilities is the reason people live their whole lives in poverty and despair.

Ideas are worth something. Even if they fail they are worth experience. How you use failure as a means of growth can and will only lead you to greater successes down the road.
