Times Are Changing

How To Change With The Times And Come Out Stronger Than Ever Before!
by Dani Johnson

Times are different. They are difficult. They are causing many to worry and be afraid. In fact, fear is floating in the air and people are being crippled by it.

If you’ve been around as long as I have or even longer, you’ve discovered these facts about life: there is no guarantee of any good thing lasting forever; there are good times and bad times; challenging times and easier, peaceful times; times of struggle and times of strengthening. Life will throw you a few curve balls, at times. But I can assure you that you can succeed regardless of the circumstances.
In my twenty years of business, I’ve found that it’s never the circumstances that determine success. It’s what you do with it!

Right now, one of two forces are either pulling or pushing you. One force leads to destruction. It starts in a mediocre path with habits, mindsets, and beliefs that dig their claws deeply into your very being. It starts with being comfortable and having no goals or vision for a better future, just existing every day. The only goal becomes to merely exist throughout the day. But this mindset will ultimately lead to terror—the terror of losing what you’ve managed to keep in these uncertain times.

We hear this everyday. “My God, I’ve already lost 50% of my retirement!”

No you didn’t. You never had it. Anything you have that’s in an ambiguous place under the control of other people means you never had it in the first place.

There was actually a time in American history when people actually kept their retirement cash under their mattress. Since that time, our society has undergone major changes in our habits, mindsets, and beliefs. The entire pitch became about comfort and convenience. This is why we began putting our money into savings and into no-risk stock. Little did we realize that putting our hope and trust in other people would cause the problems that our economy is currently suffering from. Right now, people are terrified about losing the rest of what they have managed to keep, whether it’s their house, their investments, or stocks.

If you’ve fallen into the zone of least resistance, I want to alert you to another force that also exists today. Believe it or not, it is calling you by name. This force will lead to the deepest yearnings inside of you, which most people choose to ignore because it is not comfortable.

What is this force that 2% of the population has discovered? It’s the force that leads to life—true living! It’s the ability to live your wildest dreams; the liberty to take the risks that will lead to you moving, growing, and investing in your own personal development. It ain’t easy, but it’s very rewarding. It’s living life out of the Lazy-Boy chair!

This force requires personal change and decision. It requires risk. It requires a changed attitude. It requires a change in work ethics. It requires a change in mindsets, habits and beliefs. It has many benefits, including putting more control of your life into your own hands and removing it from others. It fights fear and activates faith.

This force happens to lie dormant within 98% of the population. They have stifled, ignored and repressed the voice of the free, the voice of the risk-taker, and the voice of the faith-walker that they were born with. Instead of true life, they are living in self-defeat.

With the changing times, business as usual has to change! It starts with not allowing the circumstances of life or this economy to determine our success. It starts with us taking control of our own lives, minds, habits, attitudes, and belief systems. It starts with a decision to change.
