Ambition

The origin of the word “ambition” is interesting. The Mirriam Webster dictionary states that “ambition” originates from the Latin word “ambitio” which literally meant back then, the act of soliciting for votes. Over time, the meaning of “ambition” moved to an ardent desire for rank, fame, or power; desire to achieve a particular end. Even more interesting one of the synonyms for “ambition” is “aspiration.” Aspiration implies a striving after something higher than oneself and usually implies that the striver is thereby ennobled.

            In this chapter, we look at the steps that lead to success. First, there must be desire. A burning desire leads to ambition. Ambition leads to action. Action leads to success. Success and Happiness are the goals God asks of us.

Monthly Affirmation: I am enthusiastic and confident.

Fear + Separation = Negative Faith

The message today is for those who survived yesterday’s message. You have put a crack in the armor of fear. You have reduced the Devil and Hell to a myth. You have begun to see what great opportunities lay ahead for you. In today’s world a strange situation has evolved, a situation in which people today find it effortless to use faith to attract evil and they find it exceedingly hard work to use faith for good. But, the veil is lifted; evil, sin, suffering, poverty, hatred, the devil, and Hell are just negative faith.

            It is but a simple change in direction to positive faith. We have the tool for this momentous change, it called positive thinking. We must take the Conscious Mind of humanity and direct our positive thinking one day at a time to convince the Universal Superconscious Mind that evil, poverty, hatred, sickness, jealousy, and every other negative thought is an illusion that we as God’s divinity here on Earth have no need for.

            The definition of fear is False Education Appearing Real. The only thing we need to fear is fear itself. To rid ourselves of fear we need the truth. The truth has been handed down since the beginning of time. WE ARE IMMORTAL. Religions call it a soul; science calls it the Subconscious Mind. Jesus called it the father within. St. Augustine wrote:

                        “I Lord went wandering like a strayed sheep seeking thee with

                        anxious reasoning without, whilst thou was within me. I went round

                        the streets and squares of the city seeking thee; and I found thee not,

                        because in vain I sought without for him who was within myself.”

That part of us that is immortal, our soul, our Subconscious Mind, the father who dwelleth within this is God. God does not punish or destroy himself. When our human body is through our soul will go back from whence it came, to God.

Today’s Exercise: Take five deep breaths. If your still here go on to tomorrow.

Today’s Affirmation: The kingdom of God is within me.

Points to Ponder: We are immortal. When our human body is through our soul will go back from whence it came, to God.

To Be Successful You Must Have a Positive Mental Attitude

Why is this so important? Because your mental thinking, your thoughts are connected directly to the Creator of all things. This Creator will do your bidding and if you have a negative mental attitude, then you will receive negative results. This sounds like common sense to me. There’s an old computer saying that goes, “Garbage in garbage out.” Well your mind is the most powerful and most sophisticated computer in the universe. Why would you think it would give you anything other than what you put into it? We are in the information age; technology is doubling every ten years. Five hundred years ago, the average person had an excuse. Today we see it all around us. Use your Subconscious Mind or you will be no better off then the peons of yesteryear.

One’s place in life is largely determined by one’s mental attitude.   

Read that sentence over and over, until it sinks in. Don’t buy the get rich quick schemes of the con artist. There are no quick short cuts or once in a lifetime deals. I said it before and I’ll say it again, “That once in a lifetime opportunity comes along every fourteen minutes.” If you’re not prepared for it, it will go right by you disguised as a problem. A positive mental attitude wins financial success. This is a law. There are no maybes or lucky streaks or being in the right place at the right time. You must prepare for success. It starts with your mental attitude. Positive means confident expectation, self-confidence, optimism, initiative, courage, energy, and expectation of wealth, health, and happiness. Sounds easy doesn’t it, yet you are probably thinking negatively seventy-five percent of the time.

It’s human nature; we live in a negative world. Count how many times someone says something negative in your presence. Watch Everybody Loves Raymond on the TV and count all the negative situations and statements. This is a top rated TV show reaching millions of people each week. Poor Robert. This character thinks negatively ninety-nine percent of the time. Now it’s just a TV show I know, but that message is being fed to our Subconscious Mind as, “This is a normal way to live.” We need a makeover. We need to understand that it is not talent, education, or your job that will determine your success, but your mental attitude that wins success. Here’s the good news. You have complete control of what you put into your Subconscious Mind!

Today’s Exercise: Take a journal and write down every negative thought, word, or situation that happens to you today and turn those thoughts in positive thoughts.

Today’s Affirmation: The kingdom of God is within me.

Points to Ponder: One’s place in life is largely determined by their mental attitude.

Positive Thinking

Faith is nothing more than a concerted effort to convey to your Subconscious Mind the thoughts that you want to manifest in your life. Faith means thinking of what you want not what you don’t want. Faith is discipline; it means refusing to accept the negative or to even think about the negative. It takes a bold person to make this stand and if you pronounce your faith out loud, you will stand the ridicule of all the negative people, which unfortunately is the bulk of our society.

Faith in a sense is trusting in God. Now most people trust in God, and they see no connection between how their lives are run and the intervention of God. Most people feel they have no direct contact with God until they die and then there is this big judgment party and you either go to Heaven or Hell. Imagine standing in line and your number is nine hundred forty-seven billion, six hundred million, eight hundred forty-six thousand, one hundred thirty-nine. That’s a long wait to find out where you are going. Now imagine going to Hell for eternity because of a few transgressions in your lifetime of one hundred years or less. Try to comprehend eternity. I remember in third grade in Catholic school I asked the nun if I ate meat on Friday and I died would I go straight to hell. She said yes, and it rocked my world. I told her that I had a Jewish friend who had chicken soup every Friday night. Is he going to Hell? Well, she realized she was getting in too deep, so she whacked me across the knuckles with a ruler and told me to sit down and shut up.

            I’m kind of curious, all those people who ate meat on Fridays during the 1920s to the 1950s did they get a pardon when the Pope did away with this sin. Think of all lives ruined because of a lack of understanding of our faith. Wouldn’t it be great if the great religions of this planet would teach love, kindness, positive thinking, and our connection to God and to every other human being on this planet instead of fear, pain, judgment, and everlasting Hell? People who die for their religion, die for nothing. People who die for faith, for their fellow human being, make the greatest sacrifice a human can make. God does not want us to suffer, to fail, or be despondent. God wants us to succeed, to feel good, to be happy, and love one another as ourselves. This is the message that Jesus and all the other holy lords have taught us.

“As ye believe, so shall it be done unto you.” – Jesus Christ

How important is Cyber-Security to you?

When I asked this question online in just one week we got 22,451 new users. Cyber-crimes to most people made them feel vulnerable. The vast majority felt violated that cyber-criminals could invade their computer unannounced and look around for anything of value that they could steal. Imagine a professional hacker sneaks into your computer, not for the purpose of crashing your computer with a virus, but for the purpose of stealing valuable personal and financial data. These criminals are hard to catch or stop because they are spread out in coffee shops all over the world. Places like Nigeria, North Korea, Somalia, etc. However there is one thing they need to get into your computer that is an IP address today there are over 1,050,000,000 known IP addresses of cyber criminals. These  IP addresses are listed on government and corporate blacklist. There is only one sure way to be safe that is to block their IP address from invading your IP address.
