We will learn why this is so.The concept of thoughts as energy is a complex one that has been explored by philosophers, scientists, and spiritual practitioners for centuries. There is no scientific consensus on whether or not thoughts are literally energy, but there is evidence to suggest that they may have a measurable impact on our physical and emotional w

Embrace Meditation Practice

For me, meditation embraces all of life. Like most other things, it's a practice. Therefore I try to link it to my affiliate marketing work, as well as other aspects of my life. While this may sound simple to do, it's not always easy. It takes a fair amount of discipline.But since I think all things, all beings, and connected, it seems to be the right attitude and approach to affiliate marketing and to life that I should take. I certainly don't mean to suggest this way of looking at realit

Great Quotes to Inspire Us

How Do You Eat an Elephant?

One bite at a time.Sometimes I feel that being in WA is like eating an elephant. So much to learn and absorb! But I know that learning can and does take place.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Have I left anything out? I appreciate any feedback or advice. Thanks.Bob

This actually appears to be true.This is much more than simply thinking positively, although that certainly helps.The Law of Attraction can work both ways. Your thinking can produce both positive or negative result
