The World Around Us
Hey Everyone!
Just a few thoughts this morning on mindset and positive thoughts..
I am sure you have noticed that there are a lot of terrible things happening around the world. It seems that all the news on the radio, online, and in print is bad news.
In fact, my wife has deleted the news feed from her phone so she can stay focused on the positive.
We still get the newspaper delivered, and we still read the news online because we don't want to be cut off from the world and ignorant about current events. That being said, we self-edit what we read and try to read the good news more often than the terrible news.
It gets us to thinking about the state of the world. How did we get to this place? Why must people steal packages from other people's front steps? Why are cars stolen so often? Why are stores robbed and gasoline stolen? Why do people hurt others?
I read this quote the other day. It is by John Green:
It seems to me, that if people changed their mindset.and started loving each other, instead of loving things, much of the bad news could be replaced with good news.
Let's continue to grow our businesses, reap the benefits, and reach out to help others.
Just my thoughts this morning. Thanks for listening.
Have a great day!

Thanks for sharing Tom, love the quote! I agree, it can, (is) very challenging trying to redirect yourself away from all of the bad news. I wish the world could take a collective deep breath, maybe even practice some deep breathing exercise!

The lists of reasons 'why' can be never-ending and as complex as you like. Material 'things' is just a part of the problem.
That said, I agree that loving each other uncondtionally would change many aspects of the world in which we live.
