You all have heard this before but just to remind you so that you can still stop pointing fingers without even looking at yourself. When it comes to why people aren't rich, most victims are keen to the "blame game." People blame: the economy, the government, the broker, the stock market, their type of business, their employer, their employees, their manager, the head office, the customer service, their partner, their spouse, their parents, God." The issue is that its always someone else that is to blame. Whereas the real problem is anything or anyone but themselves.
Complaining is absolute worst possible thing you could do for your health or your wealth. I believe in the universal law that states, "What you focus on expands." When you are complaining, you become a living, breathing "crap magnet." Many teachers in the personal development field talk about the Law of Attraction. It States that "like attracts like," meaning that when you are complaining, you are actually attracting "crap" into your life.
Have you ever noticed that complainers usually have a tough life? It seems that everything that could go wrong does go wrong for them. They say, "Of course I complain look how crappy my life is." And now that you know better, you can explain to them, "No, it's because you complain that your life is so crappy. Shut up... and don't stand near me!" Which brings us to another point. You have to make darn sure not to put yourself in the proximity of complainers.
If absolutely have to be nearby, make sure you bring a steel umbrella or the crap meant for them will get you too! I stay as far away from complainers as possible because negative energy is infectious. Most people love to hang out and listen to complainers. Why? It's simple: they're waiting for their turn! "You think that's bad? Wait till you hear what happened to me!"
Blame and complaining are like pills. They are nothing more than stress reducers. They alleviate the stress of failure. Think about it. If a person weren't failing in some way, shape, or form, would he or she to blame, or complain? The obvious answer is NO! From now on, as you hear yourself disastrously blaming, or complaining, cease and desist immediately.
Remind yourself that you are creating your life and that at every moment you will be attracting either success or crap into your life. It is imperative you choose thoughts and wisely! It's time to decide. You can be a victim or not at all, every time and I mean every time you blame or complain, you are slitting your financial throat. It is time to take up your power and acknowledge that you create everything that is your life and everything that is not in it. Realize that you create your wealth, your non-wealth, and every level in between.
