What Makes a Break?

There has been a lot of talk recently about a concept that is becoming famous because of the book by Rhonda Byrne called "The Secret." If we understand and accept the idea that we can choose our fates by how we choose to think, that is how a break is made. The following is a quote from "The Secret" that Michael Bernard Beckwith wrote:

"Creation is always happening. Every time an individual has a thought, or a prolonged chronic way of thinking, they're in the creation process. Something is going to manifest out of those thoughts.
What you are thinking now is creating your future life. You create your life with your thoughts. Because you are always thinking, you are always creating. What you think about the most or focus on the most, is what will appear as your life.

Like all the laws of nature, there is utter perfection in this law. You create your life. Whatever you sow, you reap! Your thoughts are seeds, and the harvest you reap will depend on the seeds you plant.

If you are complaining, the law of attraction will powerfully bring into your life more situations for you to complain about. If you are listening to someone else complain and focusing on that, sympathizing with them, agreeing with them, in that moment, you are attracting more situations to yourself to complain about.

The law is simply reflecting and giving back to you exactly what you are focusing on with your thoughts. With this powerful knowledge, you can completely change every circumstance and event in your entire life, by changing the way you think."

So, would you like to be thinking about ways to attract a happy and fun spring break for yourself and your kids, or do you choose to think about ways to get back at your ex instead? If you would like to find out more about "The Secret" and the law of attraction, click on Find out more below.

Greetings!

Are you looking forward to spring break or are you dreading it? Will your kids stay with you or will they go to their other parent's house? Holiday visitations can bring about more stress to people who have divorced than anything! The March newsletter addresses some of these issues and their solutions.


  • Who's Break Is It?
  • Is it a break for us parents or is it a break for our kids? One thing divorce has taught me is that it is never a break for us all! We used to plan a vacation for the whole family of some sort. After divorce it became a time where I had to tip toe through the mine field of hurts and thin skin that my family was now full of.

    When the first spring break visitation was looming I was looking forward to it as a break from the 10 year old child I had been a single parent to for the past year. I had no idea that my ex would use the visitation as a way to get back at me for divorcing him. My divorce dragged on for many years, so I had ample opportunity to see how a vengeful parent can use a kid to get back at his ex.

    Unfortunately for my daughter, seven years later he is still trying to use her as a weapon. Fortunately, she is now 15 years old and the court has afforded her the opportunity to say what she wants to happen now. If any of us parents are using our kids to strike back at our ex's WHO HAPPEN TO BE OUR KIDS OTHER HALF, we need to ask ourselves who's break this is supposed to be!

  • Making Your Own Break
  • If you are skeptical about what I have said, a panel of 29 well known people, alive and dead, have contributed and use the principal of attraction to make their successes.

    John Hagelin, Ph.D has more credentials than I and perhaps you will respect his opinion because he is a world renowned quantum physicist, educator, and public policy expert. His book, "Manual for a Perfect Government", explains how to solve major societal and environmental problems and create world peace through policies in harmony with the laws of nature. John Hagelin was awarded the prestigious Kilby Award, which recognizes scientists who have made major contributions to society. He was also the Natural Law Party presidential candidate in 2000. John is regarded by many as one of the greatest scientists on the planet today. His website is www.hagelin.org.

    John Assaraf, former street kid is now an international bestselling author, lecturer, and business advisor who is quoted in "The Secret":
    "Here's the problem. Most people are thinking about what they don't want, and they're wondering why it shows up over and over again.

    The only reason why people do not have what they want is because they are thinking more about what they don't want than what they do want. Listen to your thoughts, and listen to the words you are saying. The law is absolute and there are no mistakes.

    An epidemic worse than any plague that humankind has ever seen has been raging for centuries. It is the "don't want" epidemic. People keep this epidemic alive when they predominantly think, speak, act, and focus on what they "don't want." But this is the generation that will change history, because we are receiving the knowledge that can free us of this epidemic! It begins with you, and you can become a pioneer of this new thought movement by simply thinking and speaking about what you want." John is a life coach specializing in small business owners worldwide. To learn more visit www.onecoach.com.
