When we are experiencing lack in any area, it is natural to look at the outside factors.  

I'm sure many of you right now are thinking, "That's all well and good Randy, but MY situation is different.  I was laid off at the factory, my mother is sick so I have to take care of her, the economy is bad in my area, and the transmission just dropped out of my truck - two days after the warranty expired! I am the victim of circumstance."

Sorry kids, I’m just not buying it…

Because it wasn't that long ago, that I would have been saying the same thing.  I was the "victim" to a host of tragedies, and saw absolutely no possible connection to what I had to do with them.  They were bad things that "happened" to me.

Thoughts attract their kind...

If you think about being sick all the time, you probably will be.  People who are running around spraying phones with disinfectant, carry a sweater, umbrella and facemask everywhere, take 87 supplements a day, and read 27 health newsletters are always sick.

I don’t think the issue is as simplistic as portrayed in “The Secret.”  But I do know that everything is energy, and the thoughts we give precedence to influence greatly what we attract into our lives.  So here's your homework:  Please work on this, and post your thoughts below.

What is the worst thing that happened to you?  Did it really just happen to you from fate, coincidence or circumstance - or did you have a part in manifesting it?
