Seven Split $319 Mega Million Prize--Thank God It Wasn't Me!

I'm certain you've heard about the seven government employees in Schenectady, NY who are splitting a $319 million Mega Million Lottery prize. You may judge me crazy, but I thank God it wasn't me who won. Cuss me out if you must but I think it's best that you didn't win the prize either. I cite three common-sense maxims as old as human history but as fresh as the morning sun:   A reward most cherished is one fully earned, not one granted, won or inherited. As you and I look back, aren't our fondest memories the anticipation, plenning and striving for worthwhile goals rather than actual goal accomplishment? A future absent clearly defined goals and inspiration for tomorrow really is no life at all.   You will never gain lifelong satisfaction with the sole objective of accumulating wealth. The only true and lasting prize from winning life's financial lottery is peace of mind and the freedom to choose. For most of us, goofing off full time for the next 30 to 40 years simply will not cut it! A key quality-of-life issue confronting wealthy individuals is how well they choose to spend their time.   I believe you and I can establish a lottery-winner's mentality without winning a dime! Are you aware of the universal law of attraction?  First visualize those circumstances you most cherish in life and turn to God and the universal consciousness to help convert your dreams into reality. As a start, before returning to your normal daily routine take a few moments to infuse upon your subconscious mind two guiding principles:   Yes I did win life's lottery--emotionally. I have taken control of my future and have appointed myself CEO of me. I have absolutely no doubt that over the coming months and years I will accomplish every single life objective truly important to me. I will make any difficult financial and emotional sacrifices up front. These short-term sacrifices will buy me a life-long lottery winner's mentality! Once committed to my subconscous mind, I will pursue my dreams as though I had won the lottery. Next to good health and loving relationships, there are two treasures above all others: a life in financial and emotional balance and enjoyment of every aspect of daily living, including "work." It is an unfortunate and misleading heresy to assume that no one will pay us to have fun, so long as an activity we enjoy contributes benefit to others. What do you truly want to do with your productive hours? How best can you employ your talents in enjoyable service to others?   Once a positive vision of your future is firmly entrenched in your subconscoius mind, you will begin thinking and acting like the successful, self-assured person you were intended to be all along. You will have accomplished a genuine lottery winner's mentality. You will be fully prepared to venture outside previous comfort zones to create your own destiny. Now go for it!   Should you have difficulty implanting a success-oriented mentality, I highly recommend the book or movie The Secret on the law of attraction. To learn more about a lottery winner's mentality along with a comprehensive step-by-step pathway to mid-life renewal, please review my book, A Mid-Life Challenge--Wake Up! which is previewed on our website, www.middleagerenewal.com.
