It\u00a0has to do with the mind. We attract what we ask for.\u00a0Why do people stay poor all their lives\u00a0is because they\u00a0say negative stuff like &#8220;i am uneducated, unskilled and i can&#8217;t find a job&#8221; and it\u00a0becomes\u00a0their reality.\u00a0WHEN they could change it around by just saying &#8220;Qualifications doesn&#8217;t matter, i have what\u00a0it\u00a0takes to succeed&#8221;\u00a0and\u00a0BOOM\u00a0the universe will give them\u00a0what they ask for.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Before Jeri came into my\u00a0life, i asked for someone who will truly loves me for who i am. I asked the universe for someone to protect me and guide me from all harm. When Jeri came, the universe was responding to my request. If i had not believe that someone like Jeri would come along, i would probably still be a depressed+not\u00a0eating+sleeping well and not doing\u00a0artsy stuff like writing\u00a0a script and\u00a0photoshoots (can you see the difference it makes!?) \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It might sound like bullshit but that is how the world works.\u00a0Pick up any self help\u00a0books and they will say the same.\u00a0 <strong>Because we doubt what we could receive for asking, we might not receive it.\u00a0<\/strong>By\u00a0casting all doubts and negativity aside, we will get what we ask for.<\/p>\n<p>I have been staying away from negative people\u00a0ever since i found this out. I can&#8217;t stand them. It irks me to be\u00a0around them. Especially people who manipulate others\u00a0to attain their means. I believe in a win-win situation when it comes to business. Both sides should benefit, it\u00a0balances out the\u00a0equilibrium. By taking advantage of people, it destablizes and\u00a0karma will make up for it.<\/p>\n<p>Then again,\u00a0majority of the people around us are pretty negative.\u00a0<u>They doubt and doubt and question and question our calibers and\u00a0use it for comparison for some\u00a0make believe\u00a0competition in their head.<\/u><\/p>\n<p>The only way is to not let them get into your head! Tell them to fuck off and look\u00a0at themselves before criticising others.\u00a0 I\u00a0don&#8217;t exactly say that out loud, but they are trying to put some\u00a0negative\u00a0influence to cripple the people around them so they will always stay\u00a0&#8220;below&#8221; their level. Remember that before\u00a0letting\u00a0other&#8217;s bring you down in future.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I used to be a very negative dark person who is skeptical of the world and the people around me.
