Your Destiny is NOT Unhappiness

Your destiny is never determined by your critics or those who condemn you or those who complain about you. It's time to realize that not everyone is going to celebrate your empowerment as you go forward, moving ahead with your dreams while enjoying your life AND SUCCEEDING!

Jealous people want what you have, but they're unwilling to do what you did to get it or accomplish it. Some people see everything through a filter of negativity and condemnation and fear. That's all about THEM, though, not you. When you do good things but they choose not to see them, that's their problem not yours.

Hurting people hurt people, too. And there are some people who will never be happy, never understand what you're doing or why or how, no matter what you do to help them be happy, understand, etc. They have their own issues -- and you are not responsible for their choices or decisions.

When are you going to stop feeling bad about other people's bad choices?

You can't help people who don't want to be helped, either. God doesn't want you to be unhappy simply to keep somebody else happy. Sometimes there's nothing you can do to keep others happy and therefore you finally need to stop trying.

You can tell them everything you know, but they'll still be unhappy, miserable, confused, scattered & unfocused, jealous, and filled with anger, bitterness, resentment, and fear. So what! That's THEIR stuff, not YOURS.

Too many people, these days, also have the entitlement mentality, the "something for nothing" syndrome -- they really believe everyone owes them this or that, and they want all the perks without the works.

So here's some wisdom for all this:

The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy. But I came that you may have and enjoy your life, in abundance, to the full, until it overflows. -- John 10:10 (AMP)

It's okay for you to tell people:

"Look. If you choose to be unhappy and miserable and make choices you don't like, fine. But that's YOUR life, not mine. And I AM NOT going to let your choices infect mine. I'm going to enjoy my life regardless of anyone else's feelings. So there!"

Namaste.

Who are you being and what are you doing?

If you merely copy someone else's words or have someone spoon-feed you words to say about yourself, your business, etc. you will NEVER be able to succeed because you have no knowledge of how the wordsmith arrived at choosing those words for you to spit out. In other words, it's a "something for nothing" mentality called being greedy, needy, needy and greedy. Such people are insecure and destructive to themselves.

Why? Because they refuse to stop and REALIZE who they are, what they do, and why they do anything.

I've had soooooo much experience in dealing with such greedy, self-entitled people who think they're better than what they really are and what they claim to be able to do. They're what I call the Great Pretenders.

They lie, cheat, steal, are pretending while they work their mischief, and they are living sad, pathetic, angry, jealous, covetous, envious lives full of strife, scoffing, and negativity. Why? Because they don't know who they are, what they can do, and why they're here.

I love wisdom and here's one of my favorites...

John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy, but I (Jesus) came that you may have and enjoy your life in abundance, to the full, until it overflows."

Until people make direct contact with the holiness within themselves, they can never ever really be happy. They live according to their feelings, their shifting preferences, moods, and greedy desires for things they don't really need.

Let's rise above the negativity and relate to something bigger than ourselves and our bank account and feeling attacked.

 

THANK YOU to 53 countries and their 1,556 visitors Who Read My Blog!!!

I've been busy working on and creating my next big project -- which is also the most ambitious one to date: producing my national TV show. It's a lot of work, a lot of fun, and I hope it will make a positive difference in the world and actually help people who are willing to receive. ALL YOU VISITORS keep me going and I want to personally thank you for coming to my blog and visiting. Hopefully you're getting something out of it in ways that can heal your life and help you get to where you really want to be!

I'm also writing my next book... I want to talk about the lessons I've learned so far in my life and how what I know has helped me and others -- because good advice is good advice, it doesn't matter if it comes from a famous person or not. If it works, it works! Confucius said "Do not ignore what is said just because of who says it." I think that's REALLY good advice.

America is undergoing massive new changes to its economy because Americans are experiencing the transition from one generation to another, which always involves a change in values, philosophies of life, methods of working and getting along (or not), etc. I'm actually optimistic about the direction some of us are going in -- let's hope the rest of America will either get on the train that works or just admit the old train ain't going anywhere!

I'm looking forward to new changes, new methods of production, and different ways of looking at old situations and problems. There is light at the end of the tunnel, and it's going to take a lot more work than we ever thought possible because the forces of darkness are very strong, very rich, and they're everywhere.

it's important that people don't sit quiet and be passive -- that allows darkness and evil to spread. The saying is correct that goes: "The best way for evil to spread is for good people to do nothing."

That's why I'm doing what I can given my talents, resources, gifts, willpower, and abilities. We all have to contribute and that's the only way to have a win-win. Enough with strife, suffering, scoffing, and all things negative. Negativity does NOBODY any good. Don't you agree?

I no longer want to help people who don't want to be helped. I really KNOW from experience that unfortunately there are millions of people in the world who only want to complain and thus remain in their self-made misery. Why is it self-made? Because while we can't always control the situations we're in, we CAN control how we feel about them. Only YOU can feel your feelings and think your thoughts. NOBODY else does that. This isn't woo-woo- nonsense either, it's pretty darned obvious common sense.

I'm trying to make it more common and thus spread around wisdom that good and willing people want to know about so they can actually use it in their own life.

Thanks again, visitors. Let's continue creating positive, loving, good changes in the world.

 

Cheers,

David
