Finally Made Her Happy!!!

"I spent 28 years unsuccessfully trying to give my wife what she wanted in life and finally, I figured out what she wanted. She wanted a divorce. So I gave her one of those too. At least I finally figured it out." - A man who has been enlightened
I should have known. She sure acted like she didn't like me. I bought her houses, cars, nearly an unlimited expense account. Nothing ever made her happy. Then, she asked for a divorce. So, I gave her that as well. She was wanting to get away from me all of those years. Ah ha! Now I get it. She's now (hopefully) living in bliss with her new beaux. I certainly hope so. That would make me finally successful! :)

Do Women Like Men Who Treat Them Bad?
|

The last conversation I had with my ex, shortly after splitting up, was about 'nice guys vs. men who are assholes.' Now, I always knew that her favorite thing to do each day was, fight. She loved it. It was like breathing to her. She thrived on it.
Now, early on, when I was too young (and dumb) to know better, I got right in there with her and mixed it with her. Nothing ever got physical but, words could fly. Hell, if I say so myself, I could hold my own with her. And let me tell you. She held the 'heavy tongued championship of the world' when it came to fighting.
She quit doing it when I chose not to get back in the ring with her. One day, I had evolved myself personally enough, that I just quit. I feel that I outgrew it. She hated it that I wouldn't fight. Now mind you, I wasn't any pushover. I just looked at her like she was crazy and walked off. That was the day that the marriage was truly over. The divorce didn't come for quite some time, but, the marriage was over.
The conversation we had, lasted about 2 hours. I had left when I got up in the middle of the night and found her talking on the phone to her boyfriend. That was enough. There wasn't room for 3 of us in this marriage.
In that last conversation, I was very tender towards her. Her boyfriend had already dropped her for someone else (he did this to her 2 more times and the last I heard, they are back together, again.) I told her that I had no regrets in my life. We had two wonderful daughters. There is no way I'd regret having them. She said that she had a lot of regret. That, 'she could have done more.' I'd put myself in counseling years before and honestly didn't feel any regret. I'd done all I knew to do.
In that last conversation, she told me that, "Not all women are looking for 'good guys'. Some of them like men who are assholes." In telling me that, it was her own confession of apparently what she liked and what she wanted.
Her boyfriend had dropped her in favor of one of his ex-s coming back for a 4 day fling in the mountains of New Mexico. My ex was admitting that he treated her (and other women) like shit, but, that she was going to take him back.
I can't imagine women who want or feel this. I suspect that it is more prevalent among women than anyone would think. My ex is a smart gal. She breezed through college like it was a picnic (I worked like a dog to get through college). She came from a good family. Her mother (my ex-mother-in-law) is one of the kindest people I've ever met in my life.
I need some help understanding this mindset. I gave my ex a lifestyle that most women dream of. She never had need of anything. She didn't need to cook, clean or any other domestic chores. I hired all of that done. In business, I kicked ass (and took names, as we'd say here in Texas). I was a master at negotiation. I never engaged in a battle I didn't win.
Here's how I see it. She traded what she had for a 'trailer trash' relationship. I don't believe that I'm 'all that'. Not by a long shot. I know where I came from. My dad worked for the U.S. Postal service and my mother worked at a local college. We had nothing growing up except a little food on the table and love.
Also, don't get me wrong. There's no way (even for a second) that I ever wanted her back. I'm glad she found her a boyfriend and divorced me. It was one of the best things she ever did for me and my happiness.
Any perspective? Opinions? Discussion. Would welcome the input.

Pros/Cons Wealthy Women vs. Wealthy Men- I Want Your Opinion
|

I've been around this site (mainly as a blogger) for quite some time. I've only met a few people from here. The only one I ever saw more than once was quite an amazing lady and quite likely, a billionaire (heiress). We parted tenderly as friends over issues that had nothing to do with wealth/money (I initiated the parting).
I have obviously discovered that there are far more women on here looking for successful, wealthy men than men seeking wealthy women. I've paid little to no attention to a woman's success/wealth status until very recently.
In your opinion, what are the pros/cons of a man finding a wealthy, successful woman?
What are the pros/cons of a woman meeting a successful, wealthy man?
Should both be relatively on the same status level regarding success and wealth?

Creating Amazing Love And Happiness
|

The marriage vows should include, "I commit myself to communicate to you when and how you make me happy. I also commit myself to let you know when you don't. It is my desire and my vow to do everything in my power, each and every day, to insure that the joy and happiness we feel today will reign in our marriage forever."
I created something that has proved to be an amazing tool for giving relationships and marriages a powerful advantage of succeeding and being all that it is dreamed of being.
A few years ago, I counseled a young couple who got married and faced some extraordinary challenges.
She was pregnant when they married. No big deal. However, two days after the wedding, she was in a car accident that caused her to go into labor 2 months early. Within 24 hours, their son was born with major challenges and complications. The couple were both in their mid 20s and neither had ever been married before.
The newborn was care-flighted to Children's Medical in Dallas. That day began a journey that still is daunting and challenging 4 years later.
In the meantime, they got pregnant again. This time with twin girls. If their lives were not already busy enough, it got a whole lot more that day.
The biggest problem was that there was no time left for 'them'. Just starting out, the focus was on everything except their marriage and relationship. They came to me for counsel.
It was my chance to give them a gift that I'd held back for a long time. My gift was an idea, a daily ritual that they could practice.
I suggested that each one start keeping a 'Love and Happiness Journal'. The only purpose for this journal was to make a daily record of things that the other did to make them happy and feel loved. The journal was to be a constant companion with a pen always handy.
Each night, they were to take 10-15 minutes reviewing with each other, their journals. It has transformed, not only their marriage and relationship, but, their lives.
They have shared their experience with no less than 10 other young couples who are all now keeping a 'Love and Happiness Journal'.
A shared this with a psychiatrist that I know. He is the author of over 20 books, many of them, New York Times best sellers. He said that he believed that this simple, daily exercise would give a couple a better than 90% chance of success over those relationships that don't take time each day to build and strengthen their unions.
A committed love relationship is quite likely the most valuable part of anyone's life. As with anything else of value, it takes maintenance. Like keeping the oil levels in an automobile, it must be something that is done on a regular basis.
Can you imagine how this one simply exercise would transform people's relationships and happiness?

Men often like average to thin women. Not always and certainly not all men. But it does seem to be the norm.
Women, well I'm not sure what women like or look for in that regard. I met a much younger, very fit woman in a very upscale club in Dallas a few years ago. Being candid, I made a comment that I needed to lose a few pounds. She said, "Oh, I think you look 'sexy'!" I looked at her and said, "Really?" She smiled big and affirmed. I told her, "Well, sweetie, if that's the case, let's go eat!" LOL
Seriously, is it hypocritical for slightly overweight men to only like fit or thin women? I'm not talking about grossly obese men. Just 10-20 lbs overweight? Do women really put that much emphasis on the outside appearance of a man? Do younger women think that a middle aged man that is slightly overweight represent security or something else?

Set Love Free
You ponder love, you long for hope, You dream of life, not just to cope.
For just a moment, you drift away, With passion's thought, you wish to stay.
You imagine then, what life can be, Release your soul and set it free.
For love denied yearns deep within, It seeks expression, what could have been.
Is it too late to live it now, To take the chance and find somehow?
The love you know, you do deserve, Release your heart from its reserve.
Your soul cries out and wants to give, So take the chance and let love live.
For you may find that love abounds, Your heart engulfed as peace surrounds.
Now in this day your know you found, As love unfolds and then compounds.
You imagine then, what life can be, Release your soul and set love free.

Feel Better In 3 Minutes By Doing This....

Fire Your Inner Critic
Most of us have an unwelcomed guest living within us. This guess is quite vocal. We've given it its voice and place in influencing our lives. It not only judges us, but, it also attempts to make us feel better about our lives by comparing us to others and criticizing them. It is a servant when in fact, we believe it is an authority directing our lives towards something good.
Your 'inner critic' repeats voices from the past to you. It says, “I'm not good enough”, “I'm not lucky enough” or something like, “I'm don't deserve this or that.”
Notice, right now, if you were to think of someone you don't particularly like. Notice the feelings that you possess of that person and the things which you despise about them. Notice also, what you are doing. You are reminding yourself of how disgusting that person is and you are gaining a sense of 'how I'm not like that.' You tend to accentuate your own goodness and recognize 'how good of a person' you are.
Your inner critic is also the culprit that makes you feel far less than what you are.
It is time, now, to fire your inner critic. Your inner critic is not delivering for you what you need long term. It gives you a short lived, very temporary high. However, it is not serving you long term. It is a drug, giving false promises but no lasting long term benefits.
The best place to start in firing your inner critic is by becoming conscious of its presence. Most of us have listened to it for so long, it is second nature to us. You've got to start recognizing that your inner critic is present when it shows up. You start seeing it as something separate from you. You see it as something that is not serving you well and, 'has got to go!'
Curb (kick it to the curb) your desire to criticize yourself. This is most important. And then, as you're doing that, recognize and fire your inner critic to judge and criticize others. You'll immediately feel better and take your life to a much higher level.

What You Really Are
When you begin to identify the stages of life, it all somehow, starts to make sense. Why do you feel special? Why do you feel 'different'?
I think about the little egg that becomes a tadpole and looks a lot like a tiny fish. Yet, in time, it grows legs and that wiggly tail it once had becomes two very powerful back legs. So powerful that in a second it can leap a foot or two. Those two legs recoil and immediately jump another foot or longer.
I also think about the egg that becomes a long fuzzy worm. Its the caterpillar. Then at a certain stage of life, it grows an outer shell, a cocoon. From that, what used to crawl on the ground without much beauty or aesthetic appeal, it emerges with wings and becomes an amazing beautiful butterfly.
Then there's you. You were once a microscopic tadpole. A seed with amazing potential. You start as an embryo. You emerge into this world as a human being. In those first few years, scientist have proved that you possess genius. You do what is almost impossible for most later in their life. You learn a language. Think about it. You start with no vocabulary at all and in 2.5 to 3 years, you learn the vast majority of words that you'll need to function for the next 70 years.
Then, as time goes by, you learn that you have the capacity to consciously love. You experience that emotion. Then, about this same time, people start to tell you things that literally counteract everything that you'd felt up until that time. They tell you that life is hard and unfair. They tell you that you don't have the same opportunities as many others. They tell you things that stop the natural growth for which you were born.
If you are fortunate enough, as I was, you learn that you are a child of God. You find out things that were definitely true back when you were first born. That you have potential. That you are intelligent. That your life can continue to evolve into something magnificent. That you are in fact, amazing.
This IS YOUR reality. There is no denying just how awesome YOU ARE. Wake up today. Wake up today to who and what you really are. Let your life, even your day today, be transformed by realizing who you are and what you are meant to become.

HCG Weight Loss
|
205 Views
02/24/11

My doctor recommended that I go on the HCG weight loss program. I started it on February 14 and have lost 13 lbs. thus far. I'm amazed at how I'm not hungry and feel great.
The HCG causes your body to burn non-essential fat. Thus, you lose fat where you want to most. For men, that's generally in the stomach. For women, the butt and thighs.
I'm also walking a few miles a day, but, I was doing that before I went on this plan. I will say, it does work. If you need to lose, you might want to check into it.
I've never had a weight problem until the past 4 years. I will get back down to the weight that was before. I will keep it off. I know how to eat for energy and not for emotional reasons.
If you used this or are thinking about, please comment.

Loving Yourself
If you read my column much at all, you will know that I advocate possessing a 'powerful attitude.' As I like to say, “A positive attitude believes that you 'can' do a certain thing or achieve a great goal; a powerful attitude, does it.”
Well, in this season of love, the middle part of February, I want to share with you a vital part in having a powerful attitude. That is, choosing and learning to love yourself. The essence of true faith is love. The scriptures say that 'God is love.' They also command that we love. That love is directed three different ways. Love to God, love to others and love to yourself. The biggest struggle that most people have is, loving themselves.
Loving yourself involves forgiving yourself for past mistakes. When you stop right now and think about it, you know what you're beating yourself up about things you've done in your past. In fact, you've likely beat yourself up over past mistakes to the point that you've repeated the mistake several times by now. The key to getting free of such actions is, forgiving yourself.
Next, realize that you're worthy of love. How do I know that you're worthy of love? Well, you're worthy of love because regardless of what's happened in the past, you know that deep in your heart, there is 'goodness' there. There is something deep within that causes you to feel compassion, care and love in your life. I like to say, 'if you're able to give love, you're worthy to be loved.'
Next, recognize that love is the essence of truly living. You can't really live a quality life without love. You certainly won't live a happy life without love.
Last, I think most importantly, you'll never be able to love others until you love yourself. The fact is, love is a spiritual act. You love yourself from your spiritual capacity. To love yourself is one of the most powerful spiritual acts you can engage in. Loving yourself brings happiness, satisfaction and even, good health.
I want to encourage you to continue to love yourself each and every day. When you do, you'll develop and realize a powerful aspect of living with a powerful attitude. You'll be happier and feel better emotionally, physically and spiritually in your life.

How you feel, what you think and what you say, defines your life. And only YOU, are in control of all three. YOU can direct your mind what to think. YOU can determine what your emotions feel. If your emotions aren't feeling what you want them to feel, then, start telling them what YOU want them to feel. Demand that they feel it. If you aren't happy, tell your emotions, "I'm taking charge over you and demand that you feel happy today"! YOU decide what you're going to say; the words you speak from your mouth. Make them positive words.
Once more. How YOU feel, what YOU think and what YOU say, defines your life. YOU are in CHARGE of all three!!

One day, Some-Day, must become To-Day......

When Does 'Someday' Become 'To-Day'?
I hear people all of the time talk about how they are going to start living their dreams 'someday.' Its like they have experience in reaching a goal or achieving the dream of something they've never done before, yet they know what all must be right in their lives before they can. The truth is, most of us are in uncharted territory when it comes to achieving our dreams. Its not that someone hasn't gone there before. Its simply that 'we' have never been there before.
I doubt that John D. Rockefeller had any experience in building the world's largest oil company when he started out in the oil field. I think I can safely say that Bill Gates had no experience in building the world's largest software company when he started out (since there had been 'no such thing'.)
I'm fond of the inspirational writings of C.S. Lewis. I've read everything that he ever wrote. In his Chronicles of Narnia, the great lion, Aslan, asks, “Why? Why not? Why not now? Why not you?” These are four life transforming questions if you seriously apply them to your goals and dreams.
In my book, 'Powerful Attitudes', I say that, “A positive attitude BELIEVES that one can do a certain thing or accomplish a certain goal; a powerful attitude, does it.”
When people from my past hear that, 'Michael Murphy has written some books', many of them are perplexed. Rightly so. I barely passed English in high school. I know why they might find that hard to believe. The difference in me and the people who 'want to write a book someday' is, one day my 'some day' became 'to-day'. What am I saying? I'm saying, I got started. I stayed with it until, I finished it.
Someone asked me, “Michael, how did you get a mega best selling author to write your book's introduction?” Or, “how did you get someone like Mark Victor Hansen, the co-author to the world famous 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' books, to endorse and promote your book?” I answer with two words. “I asked.” Yep, that simple. I just asked.
I'll leave you again with this simple question. “When will your 'someday' become 'to-day?”

Amazing Power To Attract Anything You Want

Amazing Power To Attract Anything
Cindy Sissom found herself frustrated in her pursuit of living life on her own terms. She had tried everything imaginable to do what she sensed she could do.
Down deep inside, she felt that she deserved more in living the life that she'd always imagined for herself and her children. She expressed her heart to me.
"My conscious mind always said that there 'had to be a better way', but my unconscious mind seemed so confused. The more I pushed to do better, the further away from me my goals and dreams seemed get".
Cindy remained hopeful in her pursuit of living the life she had always imagined for herself.
Maybe you to haven't found the golden key to living the life that you know that you deserve, yet. Perhaps you feel that 'if only I could find the right opportunity, discover my real passion and have someone to show me, I will get on the right track of what I've always dreamed of in my life.'
People can discover their passion and realize their dreams when they understand that 'Certain Way' (as Dr. Wallace Wattle described in his book, 'The Science of Getting Rich'). Some people are calling it, 'The Secret'. Some call it 'The Power of Attraction.' It goes by a lot of different names.
So what is that a person can do that will get them on the road to living out their 'dream life'? Is there a 'missing link' to opening up the possibilities that your subconscious mind tells is 'out there for you'?
If you are one who has read book after book, attend seminar after seminar, bought program after program, then I know how you think and more importantly, how you feel.
Like Cindy Sissom. You may have felt that 'nothing is ever going to work for me'. You kick yourself, mentally for continuing to hope and look for the answer. You would like to give up but for some reason, you get back into the ring for another round.
You may be aware of that same feeling of hope rising up even as you read this article. I've felt those same feelings and been in that very place.
That feeling of hope that feel is something that is indicating to you a truth. If it were not a truth, it would not persist in showing up in your life. Why won't that feeling that says, 'I can have, be and do whatever I desire in my life', go away?
I want to set your mind and heart at ease. I want to let you in on 'The Secret' of letting you know why it won't leave you. Then I'm going to share with you what you can do about it beginning right now.
That nagging sense of living 'your destiny' won't go away for one simple reason. As much as you may fear that hopefulness rising up again, I still am compelled to tell you what it is.
'That feeling that you sense right now in your heart and mind, won't go away because YOU ARE MEANT TO LIVE IT OUT. There, I said it. You really are meant to live it out. The second thing that you need to know is, 'YOU CAN LIVE IT OUT, WHEN YOU KNOW THE WAY TO ATTRACT IT INTO YOUR LIFE'.
My friend, I feel so deeply with you in your pursuit of living out your goals, dreams and vision. I've been there. It isn't fun. However, there is a way for you to finally begin to have what you want. You can rest assured that the Certain Way is actually within your reach right now.
I learned it by reading an ancient story about a king. In fact, the story begins just days before he becomes king.
This 'king in waiting' was out leading his mighty men of war in a battle. They had left their wives and children in what they thought was 'a safe encampment'. When they returned to their families, they discovered that other enemies had taken their families as slaves.
This 'king in waiting' had a huge problem on his hands. Little did he know that in just a few days he would be crowned the king. He felt anything but 'successful'. Not only had his own wife and children been taken captive. Not only had all of his men's wives and children been taken captive. But now, his own men were about to incite a mutiny and kill him for letting it happen.
The ancient story says that this king did the one thing that he knew to do. It says that he began to talk to himself and encourage himself. He had no one left so he found his inner voice and began to use it as his own cheerleader.
The key to breaking through to living your dreams is to find your inner voice and start using it to empower and encourage yourself. It is the power of affirmations. It is the power of self-encouragement. It is the power to train your subconscious mind to begin the attract the life that you've always imagined and even more.
I call my affirmations, PowerFirmations. In fact, I created tools for myself to begin to 'encourage myself'; that is, get back my inner courage to realize my dreams and goals as reality.
The greatest voice you have in your life is you own. The voice that you listen to most is your own. Doesn't it make perfect sense? Your voice is the closest voice to your ears. You have to listen to yourself more than anyone else. Your inner voice is always there.
You can choose how you will use that voice. I read recently, 'If you don't run your own subconscious mind, then someone else will'.
Take charge of your life. Your voice and your words, both inner and outer, serves as the rudder that steers the ship of your life. Start using it. If no one is there to encourage you, then encourage yourself. If no one is there to 'cheer you on', then cheer yourself on. As you do, you will transform your life and attract the dreams, goals and vision that you've always longed for and know that you deserve.

Do You Believe in 'Co-Incidents?'

Do You Believe In Co-Incidents?
Have you ever had something to happen that, just before it did, you had this very vivid sense that it was going to? Or perhaps you were thinking about someone and then, almost at the very moment you were thinking about them, they called you? Or, this happens to me a lot. You are talking with someone and they say something that, deep within, you knew they were going to say?
A lot of people call these happenings, 'coincidence.' I like to think of them as a little different. I call them, 'co-incidents.' It might sound like a play on words, and, it is. But its more than that. Here's how I see it broken down.
You have two incidents of the same thing happening. You think it and then, it happens. And, more realistically, you have often have times where you have predetermined to do something at a certain time, or in a certain place, and then, you go do it. We don't consider these coincidence. The reason being is, we've done it before and we know that there is a reasonable expectation that we are going to have the same experience we've had in the past.
I believe that there are frequencies of thought. We might express that we are on the 'same wavelength' as someone else. We mean that we are 'like minded.' We are saying that there's something there that is beyond our actual 5 senses that is an element which assists us in our expectation. And the truth is, there is. We call it 'intuition' or, an 'inner knowing.'
I've learned to trust my inner knowing. I've also learn to direct my thoughts so that I have a desired expectation of what I want to see happen in my life. I expect positive outcomes and rarely am I disappointed.
I want to encourage you to begin reconditioning your mind to expect positive outcomes in your life. It is just as easy to expect a positive outcome as it is to expect a negative one. Start expecting what you want to happen, not what you fear will happen. Direct you thoughts towards what's going to make your life better and then, watch what happens. You'll see far more desirable results and gain the full meaning of 'co-incidents.'

Women want more

O.k. I saw the blog regarding 'Oversexed Women' but that's not what I've found the case to be.
Most mature women (and some, unmature and immature) are not oversexed. THAT is a myth. If you ask the women that I know, they aren't oversexed. They are far 'undersexed'.
And not just in engaging in intercourse. But touching, flirting, playing, alluring, etc. Most men are lame at these. They 'talk' and don't do anything (especially married ones).
I'm not talking about laxed morals either. I'm talking about true intimacy (def. 'in to ME, see'). Men are lame at it. How do I know? Well, go ask their wives (if you can get them to open up).
Do this. (I've not done it but the idea just came to me). Go out to a dating site and search on married women 50 years old or older. Ask them why they are on there. You likely won't find many married ones there. But, I'm betting there are some. Pose the question non-judgmentally and ask them why they are on there. I'll make a bet that you'll eventually find out that they are 'undersexed.'
I've been out in public, at social gatherings and heard the talk about sex. The biggest thing I've heard women say is how they don't get enough. And I'm talking about satisfying, emotional love making. Being oversexed won't be the problem.
I welcome any thoughts, disagreements, agreements, notions that I'm insane, hate, love, etc. :)
Cheers, Michael

No Box Thinking

"The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it." —Michelangelo I hope you're not just an 'out of the box' thinker. To even consider 'boxes' when it comes to living out purpose, passion and potential, is to say that you are limited. You are not limited. Limitations actually occur, not in a box, but, in a ball. A ball of gray matter in the larger ball, your head. I believe that it was Robert Kennedy who said something to the effect, "Most people see things as they are and ask 'why'? I dream things that never were and ask, 'Why not?'" That's 'no box thinking.' Why are we here on this site? To connect with people, significant others, who have just escaped the box in obtaining and possessing wealth? God, I hope not. I know I'm here to find that one amazing woman who dreams as RFK did; as I do. I was at the top of my game 2 years ago. More money than I'd ever dreamed. I saw nearly all of it go away faster than you can imagine. And, I couldn't be happier right now in my life. I'm watching the phoenix of my soul rise from the ashes. I allowed the crucible of life to make me better (not bitter). Some amazing lady is going to join me (and I her) in this incredible journey. I know she is waiting just for a man like me. One whom she knows has heart, passion and the burning deep within to live out dreams. To create fairytales and live them. There are no boxes. Only ones you create in your own mind. Elimiate 'box type' thinking and live your passion and potential. Create the life you've always imagined.

Magic of Kissing

It was the third date. They thoroughly enjoyed the laughter, the sharing, just the essence of each other's presence. Similar interests. Sometimes it seemed as if their thoughts mirrored each other. So far, it was platonic yet mildly affectionate. A little teasing. Some innocent flirting. And then, just as she was about to go inside, she said, "So, are you ever going to kiss me?" He was almost surprised by the question. He thought for a few seconds and asked, "Sweetie, do want a toe curling, soul reaching, stirring passions of your soul kiss, or, do you just want a peck on the cheek?" She was obviously taken a back having never been asked that before. She opted for the first one. He gave it. She prompted propsed to him. A buddy of mine said, 'Oh hell, a kiss is just a kiss. Either you can do or you can't." I disagree. A kiss can touch a part of your soul that's possibly never been stirred before. Think about it. I've found that part of the magic of a kiss is that words cease. Physically, words have to cease. But a kiss is something that are beyond words. Its an expression of every thought and every word ever spoken. A French kiss is even more so. It completely disables the tongue from its normal function of speech and engages it in such a way that it penetrates the same essence of the other person. A kiss isn't just received. It is eomething that is willingly engaged in. One time in my life did I ever 'go for the kiss' and was denied through none engagement. The thing is, later on, she thought she was in love with me and made every attempt imaginable to prove it. But something was never right. Kissing is vital to love. It is vital to a healthy relationship. Its the one form of intimate intercourse that you can engage in while in a public place. Think about it. I think it is an art the is too often forgotten. I suppose that's why I wrote this blog entry. Your thoughts, feelings?

Rude Women! What to do?

My buddy can't figure out how to take women who are rude to him from this site. He winks at them or writes an email. He (like me :) likes women older than him. Its the maturity, intelligence, wisdom (and amazing sex; just kidding; not really HA!) that attracts us. He said, he winks or writes them something very complimentary and endearing and they are rude to him. He ask me, "How do you handle that?" Actually, he says something back to them that's rude in defense. ME? Hell no. I don't bother with rude women. I'm not going to waste my time or emotional enegy to engage them. No way. I told him, "Buddy, that's why you have a delete button to click on. You simply check that email and hit delete. Then, in 30 seconds, you don't remember what they even looked like (at least I don't)." There's 3.5 billion women on the planet. There's 150 million in the U.S. alone. There's at least 15 million within my acceptable range for a relationship. There's at least 3 million (in my estimation) that I could be attracted to. Out of those, surely I can find one who thinks I'm their dream guy. In fact, there's probably far more than that who would think I'm their dream guy. But I'm only looking for one. Hope this helps some one who might feel a bit insecure when they are rudely (or otherwise) rejected. Listen guys, "IT'S NO BIG DEAL. MOVE ON AS FAST AS YOU CAN."

Life Transforming Thought

You ego has a plan to give you the love, happiness, health and success that you desire. Its plan involves blaming others for your lack of any of these. It will continue to lie to you (and you will continue to believe) that it will work.
IT WON'T! Please, make no mistake about this. It will NEVER work!
Looking within, taking responsibility for your own love, happiness, health and success is THE KEY to getting all of these. Go to work on making YOU better. You have the resources already to make all of your dreams come true. Its there. Right inside of you. NOW.
The ego's plan will always fail as it always has failed for you. It is unreliable, inconsistent and always leaves you more empty than you were before.
Looking within your own heart, getting to your spiritual source within, will always succeed. It cannot fail you. It will never fail.
Stay with me here on the Powerful Attitudes group this year. I'm going to give you tools to transform your life in 2011. MY life will be transformed as well. Let's do it this. TOGETHER.
Peace and love, Michael
