Out of Synch

Last night my wife and I had a fight. It got ugly at several points and then it calmed down, but even today it is not brilliant.

I think it is because we are out of synch. I realize and understand that when I'm officially old enough to retire that there will not be any social security money left. That to me means that I'll either be working all my life just to exist or I can put in a whole bunch of smart work now to avoid that.

I think my wife "gets it" but then when it comes to the crunch she just wants her life the way it is. No discomfort, not even for a short time, no long range planning except for having children and no desire or as she says drive to become a business owner, salesperson or entrepreneur.

To be honest - I don't have a drive to become those things either. I do however have a drive that suggests some minor inconvenience would be acceptable, certain risks are acceptable and having a certain (but open) mind set is acceptable for just one purpose: Providing for my wife and family now and into the future. I'd really like to be able to spend every minute with my children as they grow - their first steps, first words and so on. I'd like to be with them on birthdays, holidays, schools shows and recitals. Most importantly I'd like to be with them because I just can and not because I was able to sneak out of work early or took some vacation time.

To me, my dream of being wealthy is not about the money itself, but what it can do for us. It can buy us time from jobs we do not enjoy, it can buy us the time to be with family and friends and it can buy us the tickets to go and visit those family and friends. Any where at any time. Not a bad request when you realize that my wifes family are spread across 4 states and mine spread across the UK and New Zealand.

I think she "gets it". I know she says she does. It's just that we are out of synch on "how" all the above dreams are going to become reality.

The ironic thing about this is that providing we are clear with the universe on "why" we want something then the rules of the law of attraction state that the "how" will take care of itself.

Maybe yesterday was just a day to be out of synch.

Don't just take my word for it...

Or More Law of Attraction Stories and Links

There are many authors and blogs listed below, many are experts in the field, some are keen amateurs like myself, some wish to earn fortunes, others to simply lose weight or find the person of their dreams. Many are fans, some are sceptics, some not so keen but not so firmly opposed. Each writer tells the stories and facts in their way and I am pleased to be able to link to them all here.

To my casual or unconvinced readers: Now you have other places to go, other sources of information about the law of attraction (and natures other laws in some cases) to read up on. Educate yourself. Determine if I really am just a raving loony with one foot in the funny farm, wriggling around trying to get out of that nice white jacket with the sleeves that do up at the back, or someone who just like you has a dream and wants to see it become a reality.

If you are one of the authors to whose blog I have not got around to yet, please be patient I'll get there soon. Thanks and keep blogging.

Busting Loose

Just the other day, my friend gave me a book to read, called Busting Loose From the Money Game: Mind-Blowing Strategies for Changing the Rules of a Game You Can't Win and it is "out there", I mean, really "out there". I can say that safely because it absolutely makes sense to me now, because of the journey of mental, physical, spiritual and metaphysical learning and understanding I have been on as I get closer each day to realizing my dream.

If I had read this book back then it would have blown my mind, but not now. I am finally getting it! It's all just a game - everything we do, everything we are, feel and see, is one game - created by us to have fun and challenge ourselves. I kinda like that.

If any of the following statements make sense to you or have ever popped into your head as thoughts then please read the book. Your journey is about to change speed again.

1 - I am the Universe
2 - God is the universe
3 - Therefore I am God, or put another way, God is me
4 - I believe in a higher power of infinite intelligence and believe that we are all interconnected
5 - Quantum Physics makes sense to me
6 - We are all one.

For the lay person reading this, No - I am not a barking loon, who needs to be locked up - this is the next evolution of my understanding of life and the universe and my role or position within and it's ability to help me achieve my financial, personal and health goals.

I survived Friday the 13th

A strange set of coincedences were abound on Friday 13th. I had just read and chuckled at Yaxlich's Friday 13th post and was talking to a friend in England about it. At that very moment I was heading off to Lake Hartwell in Georgia. My wife and I were meeting up with 3 other couple friends and planning on letting the dogs play.

That's 8 people in total, a lake and Friday 13th. My friend expected that I would not make it back from the trip but here I am, alive and well. Maybe it's because I'm the cute one who also happens to be the virgin?

It was a little scary though - the house next door to the one we stayed in had been burned to the ground and there were eerie noises coming from pipes and metal that got caught in the breeze. There were no street lamps and the only flashlight we had was the one in the house that died just 2 minutes after turning it on. Leaving me and my friend to trip over brush and half-path until we found the lighting for the walk down to the lake front.

To be honest - I'm a 37 year old, 6'5" man who doesn't get scared by much but I'll admit to breathing a little short and generally puckering my butt as I made it out to the homeowners boat dock which was lit up like a Christamd tree it was so bright. That was quite a scary 200 yards I can tell you.

Still, we proceeded to make an amazing (even if I say so myself) fire in a fire pit on the beachfront and sat there eating s'mores and drinking. As for the other coincedences? 13 drinks, 13 stumbles in the woods, 13 ghost stories told. ( I really wasn't counting......) And the final one: Is there any coincedence in the fact that I couln't play pool when I was 13 years old and the fact that I cannot play after 13 vodka and red bulls now?

I got my energy back

Wowee - I feel all supercharged again today, my mind is clearer, I feel like I have focus and clarity with everything that is going on. To be honest, I have a lot going on.

Yesterday was a real down day, it didn't seem to matter what I did I was just in a funk. I had to pull out of 2 real estate offers I'd made because the sellers couldn't bring themselves to sell at my price and I had one of my investor partners drop out of a deal too.

The reality is, these things happen all the time, and as I now know - for a really good reason, but somehow yesterday I just hit an energy low. Right up until I went to my cashflow club. It's our little club where we meet every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month to play the Cashflow game created by Rich Dad Poor Dad creator Robert Kiyosaki.

I love to play it and it doesn't get boring, I even tell people that the books will encourage you to change your life while the game will ACTUALLY change your life, and I mean it. That's not the whole reason for my energy boost though. It's the people. We have all sorts attend, varying educations, employments, histories, ages and it's a mix. It's a great mix. While we are playing, before and after we will sit and discuss new books we are reading and experiences we are having as well as sharing our dreams, goals and plans with likeminded people.

I need reminding once in a while that not everyone thinks like everyone else and I know that for sure because a lot of people consider the law of attraction a wacky idea and others think that Rich Dad is just a bunch of hot air to sell books. I do believe in both of them a lot and it's just great once in a while to hang out with others who agree.

Today, I'm bouncing like a child and full of the joys of spring. I have made myself a new day today and everything is just perfect, it feels good and I'm ready for the world. Bring it on.

Watch The Secret

This is a great 7 minute clip of the movie The Secret I told you about. The story about the genie is how this blog got it's name. I recommend anybody to watch the whole thing. It really is worth your time.

Do you know friends who are glass half empty types? This might just convinbce them to change.

I haven't been on for a while because I am busy, busy busy, now I know that is no excuse but in the last week alone my goal is starting to take on a more realistic form. My wife and I and our friends/business partners are about a week away from closing a deal on a liquor store, an 8 unit apartment building and a 3/2 condo. All of which are great deals and all of which will both contribute to our bottom line and our monthly passive income.

What has been interesting is that way back I said we would make $36,000 in 49 days. Well it didn't happen by the calendar dates but I was reminded to be absolutely specific in my requests. The original goal was to hit that $36,000 in 49 days, but I didn't say which 49 days.

Now it looks like it is going to happen. I'll let you know.

Until then enjoy the Secret and I hope you can make it work for you.

Richard
