How has things been going in your life? Do all things or most things that you engage in turns out in your favor? If so, that’s good, keep doing what you are doing. On the other hand if it seems like no matter what you do, most things that you engage in turns out bad, it is time for you to learn how to do the opposite. Don’t take what I just said lightly because this is one of the most difficult things that we of human nature can do. Because of our own programming of our minds we are set to continue doing the same wining or defeating habits. It will be a tough fight to break free of defeating habits, but if you want to change the outcome of the way things go in your life; this is a fight you must participate in. The way you should prepare yourself is to get your mind in shape because there is where the fight and your change will take place. There are two different opponents in your mind, the one that want to keep doing the same loosing habits and the one that want to change for the better. You must begin to seriously train the second one.
Some of the ways that you can do this is by learning to meditate, self hypnosis, and reading of personal growth material. There are others, but it is up to you to seek them and apply them to your advantage. Always remember any change in you is up to you.

Lets Talk Church
My reason behind choosing this subject had to do with me attending church services today. The topic of discussion today was a vision and focus for this year. I have been a member of my church for about 7 months and in that time frame we have had a little growth in our church membership. We do not have a large membership but the church minister has chose a goal of bringing in more members and leading them to a life of understanding the Christian way. Now this is how I see it, that has been a goal of many churches for many years. Ministers have preach for years that God word never changes, which may be true, but people do. It is my belief that individuals in these times are more concern with world pleasures, and see the church as a place that only tell them how things will be better once they die and only if they follow a strict set of rules until then. I personally believe that if membership of small churches are to grow, ministers will need to get people to understand that God intentions for us as Christians ,is to live successful and abundant lives while we are here on earth and also that the church purpose is to teach them that by following the teachings of Jesus that is what they can expect to do. No God word don’t change, but ministers got to, if they are to succeed in following through on Jesus instructions.
