Real Steps You Can Take to Turn Your Ideas & Goals Into Successful Reality

Our government has indulged in incredible financial and economic irresponsibility. They have made a series of disastrous monetary decisions. So, how can you rely on the very people who are breaking our system to help you?

We have a president who has spent more money and put every citizen of the United States of America into more debt than any other president in history. We have record numbers of people who are no longer working in the labor force, despite the government's doctored unemployment numbers. Economic data is terrible. Retail sales are terrible. Corporate earnings are horrible. The stock market is falling because the Fed has raised the interest rate a teeny tiny quarter of a percent, but our economy is too weak to handle even that. All of this is going to lead to more businesses losing money and more people losing their jobs.

Which brings me to what this article is about. Helping you take control of your life and being able to take your ideas and successfully turn them into reality. Now is the time to understand that you can achieve the life you desire, even in these dismal economic times.

How understanding economics and liberty changed my left-wing liberal stance (article)

It was 2007, a little under a year away from the very memorable 2008 presidential election. It was a very chilly, winter evening in Los Angeles (the temps were in the high 40s!!), I was cozied up on the couch with my then boyfriend watching the political debates. These debates were before the primaries. It was pretty much the first time I had ever paid real, lasting attention to any type of political debate in my life, they had always seemed so boring before.

It seemed exciting this time and there was a charge in the air. Maybe it was for the same reasons that so many others were fascinated with the election that year - the fact that Barack Obama was running for president. Hilary Clinton made it interesting as well. The possibility of either America's first black president or first woman president was alluring. Plus, there was the big housing crash that had just occurred and spiraled so many people into financial ruin.

4 Important Things About Money I Bet You Didn’t Know

I've been hurt by it. I've cried over it. I've dreamed about it. I've made future goals with it. We have joyful moments together. We have a past. We have a present. Hopefully, we will have a full and prosperous future together. My boyfriend? No no. I'm talking about money.

We all have stories about money in our lives. It's a relationship. And like members of the opposite sex, if you don't really understand how it works in general, you won't know how to apply it successfully to your life. For example, the woman who doesn't realize that many men want the chase when pursuing a woman, might make the mistake of instead chasing her dream guy and squashing his attraction for her before it ever even got off the ground.

Same with money (and prosperity for that matter). If you don't understand general properties of it, you might squash your chances of attracting more of it into your life. Or you could lose what you've already got.
