Do you really trust, or are you secretly expecting the worst?

Trust is act of choice to be brave, let go and move through fear and beyond to peace — to believe in the best outcome, without negative expectations based on the past.

Of course there are always opportunities in life for harmful situations and to get hurt, but that doesn’t mean you should spend it focusing on the fear of pain, waiting for it to happen or choosing to invite it into your life.

THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE

Expecting the worst doesn’t protect us from pain, instead it projects a looming wall of FEAR  — of being hurt and disappointment, until it’s all we can see and all we receive.

Whereas looking on the bright side of life means you choose to focus your attention on joy, happiness, love and trusting in the beautiful way life always works out for the best when you let it!

You ultimately become what you repeatedly do.  If your habits aren’t helping you, they’re hurting you.  Here are a few examples of the latter that will steal your happiness if you let them:

1.  FOCUSING ON EVERYONE’S STORY EXCEPT YOUR OWN.

Don’t be so satisfied with the success stories of others and how things have gone for them that you forget to write your own.  Unfold your own tale and bring it to life.  You have everything you need to become what you are capable of becoming.  Incredible change happens when you decide to take control.  This means consuming less and creating more. It means refusing to let others do your thinking, talking, and deciding for you.  It means learning to respect and use your own ideas and instincts to write your passage.

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they don’t want to hear.” –George Orwell

Orwell’s 1984 is one of the most influential novels of all time. In it he predicted with uncanny accuracy our current state of affairs. Big Brother has become a metaphor for the surveillance state erected around us without our permission.

In a true democracy, one actually ruled by the people, such an entity would never exist. But since we live in an oligarchy, and more specifically a paranoid plutocracy, we the people have no say, except when we join together in solidarity. In this article we will break down the four main culprits of the mass surveillance state, using the four overreaching and insidious tentacles of Big Brother as a metaphor, and see if there’s anything we can do to overcome them.
