"The Distinct Facts of Living... Get To It"

Embarrassment is one of the most unnecessary, ridiculous things that we seem to exhibit at various times. It can be known as an emotional and/or thought state of intense discomfort with oneself. Why must we even go through it and experience it? There's no legitimate purpose for it. The thing is, we choose to under-go embarrassment. It is based on our mindset and how we've been conditioned growing up. Here is an example of what I mean.
One day I was hanging out with my friends and let's just say some of them are truly rambunctious. We were driving to the mall and when the car got parked at the mall parking lot, a song started playing on the radio. It was a love song from the 80's. My friend that was driving turned the car off and we all got out to then proceed to enter the mall. In good spirit, one of my friends began to sing the 80's love song out loud. Singing while dancing with extreme hand motions.
He was serious, but at the same time joking just to make us laugh and anyone else walking by us. Immediately I began to laugh followed by another friend that couldn't hold in the chuckles any longer. Then there was my other friend, he didnt even turn his head towards us as he began to speed walk to another entrance door, which was a further distance. This friend was embarrassed by the idea of walking with us to the much closer entrance because of my other friend goofing around, singing for the fun of it.
What was the big deal? Nothing, we were just having fun, but he didn't want to have people thinking a certain way about him. He didn't want to be judged. He was embarrassed by the idea. Why is it that my friend and I were not embarrassed by our other friend singing? How come my friend that was singing wasn't embarrassed? Yet, why was my other friend embarrassed? It is simple, we did not care what others thought. If you care what others opinion are on you, then embarrassment can happen. If you don't then embarrassment doesn't have to happen.



There are things that we want and things that we would rather not have, and yet, the fascinating part about this idea is that it differs for everyone. Don't get me wrong, there are certain things that we all want and certain things that no one wants, but for the most part it does differ for everyone. Success is one of those things that everyone wants. We all want it and yet even what defines the word success is different per individual.
An old man once stated that it's not the material things one has that makes them successful or not, that the attitude and mindset are the factors that can make or break if one has success. That was his definition of success, Though that is the case for him, I know many people that would beg to differ. Many would equate success with the exact opposite of his idea of it. Here is the thing though, it is most beneficial to feel good, it really is because feeling bad just doesn't cut it. So first and foremost, do what makes you feel good because whatever your definition of success is, that will come a whole lot easier when you are feeling good.
Like attracts like. The law of attraction. Your definition of success is a good feeling, it will arrive much slower if you are feeling bad and negative, or will not arrive because good feelings and positive frequency do not like conjoining with bad feelings and negative frequency. They are like oil and water, one rises while the other sinks, there is no mixture. There is no harmony in that. An example I can give is this, go back to a memory in which you recall you were feeling good, really good and just had positive frequency. Either that day ended with you in a great mood and a great feeling, or someone rained on your parade that day with their bad mood and negative energy.
When you are feeling good, you like most individuals do your best to stay away from those who are negative because you do not want to end up feeling that way. So if your definition of success has a good feeling to it, which it does, and you are feeling good, then that is good because success wouldn't mind conjoining with you. If you are feeling bad, then success will try its best to flee from you. Think of success as an entity, it like us wants to feel good, not bad.
So, whatever your definition of success is, do your best to feel good. Success is the big fish you are trying to catch. You feeling good is having the right type of bait on the hook in the water. You feeling bad is the equivalent of no bait on your hook.
Success. The word has 7 letters. 1, 3 & 5 are odd numbers. 2, 4 & 6 are even numbers. The letter 's' is odd in the word success because there are 3 of them. The letter 'u' and 'e' are both odd because they both only have 1 letter each in the word success. The only letter that is even is the letter 'c' because there are 2 of them. -'C'- is the only even letter in success because we need to SEE clarity that we must feel good to reel in whatever success means to us. In any event, feel good about living because Living Is So Big. Remember that.

My husband gives me a reason to live every day. On many days I want to give up. I've had surgeries, I've lot a cat we had for many years, and now my best girlfriend has decided that she needs "space", which to me, means "goodbye". But my husband is a rock, and he is a man who changes when needed, and leaves me notes every morning in my coffee cup.

Hey, what's up everybody! How have you all been? I, personally, have been fantastically amazing! So much has been going on. If you have been checking out the website and following up with each post that we post on here and wondered why we haven't been posting anything for the last couple of months... well that is because we have been SO busy. But this kind of busy is GOOD busy. Let me explain.
We have been working on writing a book! It takes much, much time. From the writing, to the editing, the the reviewing, to the formatting, to the publishing process, etc. Yes and although we have written books in the past, this book is the icing on the cake. Can't give away the title just yet, but it is really intense. This book is truly one of a kind and unique due to the content within it. The goal of this book is to bring the reader a new understanding on how to truly appreciate life as well as the many formulas, tips, suggestions and stories that are within the book. It will be sold online as an e-book fairly soon, so keep posted as to when it will come out!
