What a year 2011 was - a year during which uncertainty, anxiety, fear and desperation seemed to be ever present from local to global decision making.The more I think about these decisions and their probable negative impact on our community – the more I realise it is the individual (yes, you and I) who are responsible and who can turn this “sun-stroked mentality” into some common sense.
Common Sense is not dead – I know so many people who apply it daily to their family, business and social lives. They do amazing things and give so much to their community.
So why is it that when it comes to information, on projects and causes - promoted by media and community leaders – we do not question or consider their consequences?
Charles McKay in 1841 wrote: "People it has been well said; think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds; while they only recover their senses slowly one by one".
Like so many people I believe in abundance. I believe that mankind will always innovate, be ingenious and can overcome almost all challenges. I am certain we cannot control death or the climate. The more books I read about Climate (for example), the more amazed I am about the Earth we live in.
So take a personal pledge in 2012 to stop letting other people influence your attitude, your hope for the future & your potential to do something great.
Whoever or whatever is controlling your mind is also controlling your LIFE. It’s time to take back control of your mind & live on your terms with your values, your standards & your decisions about the world. Be well informed and just believe. This is the only way to live a free, abundant, peaceful & joyful life!
So: "Fear less, hope more; eat less, chew more; whine less, breathe more; talk less, say more; love more and all good things will be yours."
This is the day to start…………Mario
