When is enough “ENOUGH!?”

There are times in our life that we look at the people we have allowed in and the people we have kicked out and the people we have allowed to stay in our life.  This can range from Friends to family to business partners to church friends etc…  Who we allow into our lives can ultimately design our life if we allow it.  You have never heard someone say, “I have too much positive in my life!”  Why?  It just isn’t true…EVER! As humans we cannot have too much positive in our life.

So where does the negativity come from in our lives and in our thoughts?  “I’m not good enough, I’ll never make it! I’m not skinny enough! I’m too fat, I’m not smart enough, He won’t like me! She won’t like me!  I can’t do that!”  We are instilled with so much negativity and instill so much into our children’s lives!  Every Time we tell our kids “NO” we are instilling a negative into their life.  Instead of telling them to get down or get out or shut up…Maybe. Just Maybe focus their attention in another direction.  If they are getting too wound up and out of control sit them down with a book and read to them for a few moments.  YES what happens is that “MOST Parents” today are “TOO BUSY” to do this.  Then later on wonder why their children are out of control.  Take their kids to the Doctor what they will prescribe a drug to a “bored child”.  Has nothing to do with ADD or ADHD.  Has to do with lazy parenting and not enough time to direct the childs energy to something amazing and positive!  It could be reading, writing, numbers, music…What parents are still not understanding is the products that are being put into the food that YOU feed YOUR children.  Some of these foods contain chemicals that cause a spike in blood sugars and brain stimulants that cause Your child to be fidgety and jittery and seemingly out of control.

Stop being ignorant to what you are putting into your child’s body with the foods you allow them to eat.

Moving into adulthood and You are sitting everyday living paycheck to paycheck and wondering why you’re not getting ahead.  You haven’t taken and opened your life to anything new.  Because You were taught from early on that You had to go to school, get good grades and go to the service or go to college and then get a good job and work 40 hours a week or more trading your hours for dollars and being Taxed to death.  Little did anyone teach you to be your own person and take a look at your parents to realize You did NOT want to live like that and find a different way to live and grow as a person.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When anyone has ever approached you with an opportunity to get ahead you’ve asked what it was and if they stated it was “Amway, Avon, USANA, Pre-Paid Legal etc…” You turn your nose up to it stating “it’s a scheme!” Ohhhh yes because anything that wants money from you to start selling their product is a “Scheme” Yet You will start a “JOB” for let’s say $15/hr and work for a week sometimes 3 for FREE before You ever see a dime!  Yes that’s genius.  All the while Your true fear is what Your friends or family will think.  If You go the rest of your life worrying about what Your family or friends will think about your decisions. My question to you is do you think about your family or friends when you’re sitting wondering how you’re ever going to get ahead in life!?  How you’re going to make the gas, elec. And rent and still have money for food.  Maybe how You can get enough money for a down payment to buy a home or fix your car.  Challenge is you’re surrounding your life with broke ass people with broke ass ways and a broke ass sense of living that You don’t know how!  Why…Cause they don’t know how!  The ONLY way You are ever going to get ahead is if YOU take control of YOUR life, of YOUR surrounding and of the people that YOU choose to put in to YOUR LIFE!

This could be your kids even.  Your own grown kids that have made their own poor life choices that have come back in to share their poor life choices with You.  While as parents we should help them out the question becomes how much do we “help” before we end up “enabling” them!??  This is a major question that one should think about.  We are a nation an era of enablers to our children and it’s getting worse.  Teaching our children from early on how to be self-sufficient is a MUST!

Sometimes You have to stop and say, “Well, I’ve done it my way for so many years and nothing has gone out of the ditch You’ve dug for yourself and start to LIVE a like that is going to bring You up and help get Your life back on a course that is not just doable, but  quite attainable.  Meet up groups, social groups get out of your house and find people who are doing things with their life.  Find out what their doing and how YOU too can move in that direction and NOT stay stagnant (where You are now.)  While I say all this…Remember this!  FAMILY…No matter how good or how bad is the ONE thing You will always have to fall back on.  Careful NOT to burn your bridges.  Always remembering that IF You burn your bridges You cannot rebuild with the ashes that are left behind.  You do not have to “DELETE” these people from your life just decide how much time YOU will give them before You need to get away from them.

Sometimes Enough IS ENOUGH!
