THE NEGATIVE MEDIA IS A BAD HABIT

A CONSTANT DIET OF BAD NEWS ISN’T A LIFE OR A LIVING

From the Inspiration & Encouragement Network

There is no question we are what we swallow, and it has become the drum that I am going to pound for the rest of my days. I maintain that if we mix our head and our heart in something (anything) too long – that is what eventually takes over our thinking. And I sense we all know that “good news” doesn’t sell, so the only thing we get now days is just how “bad” life is. In fact we are getting an automatic weapon full of negative news. So, after a few years I just tuned out the bad news and I am going to encourage you to do the same. If you want to figure out just how “habitualized” you are to the news of the day” — just take my little challenge. Turn off your addiction and see if you can pull yourself away from it. IT WILL QUICKLY SURPRISE YOU HOW FAST YOUR ATTITUDE ABOUT LIFE WILL IMPROVE.

There is another way to live and enjoy your self and I found it almost thirty years ago. You can grow old gracefully too. THE SECRET IS TO FIND A GREAT HOBBY. If you find something fun to do, and let “that something” take over your life you will never be strung out again. In fact, I am a part of what I now call the HOBBY EXTREMIST CLUB. Nothing I have ever done has brought me more satisfaction and pure enjoyment in my life – than my new ParaGraving hobby. And for these last enjoyable thirty years I have become sorta/kinda the town crier for the blessings of something that can actually capture your heart and there was actually a time when my professional career almost buried me in the ground.

I was a very busy (but very unhappy) young dentist who was right in the middle of his career but I started having some serious misgivings about my “constant flow of negative days.” I kept thinking to myself. “Surely there must be some other way to go in life than just work – work – work?”

I did make a great living, but what I wanted more than anything was to have A GREAT LIFE. There is a religious scripture that fits my life and living dilemma. Seek and ye shall find. So, I did – and something showed up that was rather profound. I call it now my ORDINARY MIRACLE and it was so fun from the get-go I pursued it with every ounce of my heart and soul. And trust me, if you are lucky enough to discover what a whole bunch of us are playing with – you will light your own fire within that is so sacred and your passionate hobby will rise to the top of your quality lifestyle list as well. When a miracle hits our life, it is a big deal. They don’t show up all the time.

There is a great thought that could help you open some incredible doors of opportunity in your own life – if you swallow it that is.

BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE – FIND A

MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION

My whole life is mixed up into what I call a BETTER LIFE & LIVING SERIES. Because of the fact that so many people are “seeking a better way to grow old” I have been sharing what I “discovered” for a long time now and I encourage you to dig into your own soul a bit deeper and find something that will get that fire within your own soul started. Yes, it takes a little doing, but it sure is GOOD MEDICINE for whatever ails you and I can promise that. It is a passionate prescription and it is the only medicine I prescribe any more. I retired from dentistry “years” early to go play for my life and living and it has been such a blessing in my life. You need to seriously re-consider your own pathway and “come climb with all of us.” We are headed up the PATH LEAST TRAVELED and you are most welcome to climb with us.
