Million Dollar Portfolio

Today a friend of mine came over to tell me that he bought a newer bigger TV than the LCD one he currently has and wants to give me his old one. How can I say no? The current TV I have is great, really nice picture and it has a built in DVD player, but the player has trouble with some discs.

I know it doesn’t really count toward the Million Dollar Experiment, but it’s still positive energy coming back to me.

I heard Russell Simmons say something on Bill Maher tonight that really struck me. I am paraphrasing but basically he said about the world…that if you look around you and you percieve that things are good, and that you feel good, then the world tends to be a good place. And the opposite is also true. If you always see the bad things in people and in life, then in general you will percieve the world as being a bad place.

I think that’s really profound because I don’t think we really take stock of how we feel about things in general. In terms of how the world works and how we treat others, A lot of how we feel is dependent on how we percieve the world around us. If you walk around feeling scared and unhappy then you are sure to continue feeling those things because you see the world as oppressive, unhappy, overcrowded, and generally not going in the right direction.

I don’t look at things this way. I like being positive, I like to believe that we are good people by nature and that sometimes we just make bad decisions. I know that sounds simplistic but think about it. We all basically know right from wrong.

A friend of mine said it best when talking to his 10 year old son. He said, “If you think you are doing something wrong, then you are.” Doesn’t that just sum it up nicely?
