Universal Posilivety

Back with a vengeance

Finally the wait is finished. About 10 years ago I first came up with the idea of Universal Posilivety. It was born out of a negative situation. I was fat, sick, depressed, feeling like my life had no meaning. I watched the Secret like many of you have and first learned about the law of attraction. Easier said than done and while I thought I knew what depression, negativity and bad luck was, boy was I in for a bumpy ride. I guess the universe was telling me, if you want to be a light for those in darkness, if you want to be an example of how to see the positives in a very negative world than I would need to enroll in the school of hard knocks and take the full bachelor, Masters and Doctorate program. It makes more sense to me now, it is hard to help someone out of the mire when you have been given the silver spoon in life. Knowing how to see the positives you need to be well versed and experienced in living through the negatives.

Becoming a positive person is making a pact with the universe. No matter what life throws at you, you will choose to find the positives and focus on those. By all means learn from every single negative situation, and continue your path upwards. I have had to stop dwelling on the past failures and to stop fixating on my next 15 years and decide to live my life one day at a time. Learn from your past, set goals for your future, but do what you can to make the best out of today and prepare for tomorrow. When you wake up in the morning, ask yourself what can you do today? What are some projects you CAN do to better set you up for the successes of tomorrow. We can overwhelm ourselves with the plans of the future but often times, this leads us to getting nothing done today. That was the story of my life for the past 15 years. We read about overnight success. We see advertisements that tell us we can make $1,000 a day following an easy blueprint. If you want real advice talk to people that are successful and have made it. Some of the greatest advice I have received is to have your plan, but implement it one day at a time. Most businesses fail in a year because people give up. You WILL succeed if you continue plugging away. Keep following your daily goal and work towards goals that are easy to achieve. You may have a business selling hats and are constantly thinking, “To be successful I need to be selling 10,000 hats per month and making $100,000 a month.” If that’s your expectations right off the bat you will be met with a ton of negativity as reaching that goal will take a lot of money, a lot of inventory, and many customers. Tell yourself, “what if I can sell 100 hats per month?” When you reach that goal by daily doing what is needed to reach it, then tell yourself, “well, I have made it to 100 sales per month, what about 500?” Continue to grow at a pace that works for you. A pace that you can learn and grow and not be overwhelmed. Just DON’T GIVE UP. Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither will your empire. Do you think Bill Bowerman and his waffle iron were thinking about million dollar sponsorship contracts for Nike back when he was still coaching track and field? Do what you can today with a vision for tomorrow and learn from every negative experience as you grow. See the positives, visualize the success and you will learn, you are the architect of your destiny. Never put off until tomorrow what you CAN do today!!
