Blaming your circumstances for where you are and what you become is the worse thing you can do. The only reason you are where you currently are is because of the person that you have become. It is you who over a period of time has sailed your boat to your current location. The same wind blows on us all. The economic wind, the political wind, and the social wind are all challenges that we all meet at some point in time. It is the direction of your sail that determines where you end up. In other words, it is not what happens that determines your life future. Rather it is what you do about what happens that shapes the results you obtain in life. Your circumstances are controlled by your actions. Your actions are controlled by your thoughts. So you must indirectly change your circumstances by changing your thoughts. This is not something that can be done overnight. We are all controlled by our paradigm which is a multitude of habits fixed in our subconscious mind. These habits have been placed in our subconscious mind from the time we were babies through the repetition of information. To change this paradigm we must change the information going into our brain. Our brain makes the most powerful super computer look like a toy. What we put into our brain is what we get out. The media today is filled with negativity. The more shock and sensationalism the more people will watch and they know this. Watching and reading about the latest car accident, bank robbery, stabbing, shooting, mugging, killing and tragedy does nothing but fill our glass with dirty water. If we do not control what goes into our brain the weeds will grow. We must purposely wash our glass with clean water each day. Just how you let a dirty glass of water run under a sink long enough and it will be clean so will your brain.
