New perspective!

Hmmm, well, you know how sometimes you let outside forces or people attempt to redirect your energy? Well thats kind of where Ive been lately. Folks, just so you know, I'm more of a positive, rose colored glasses kind of guy. I see the world as good with a lot of possibilities. Since I've been out here in the country life, I almost got sucked in to some of the negativity that goes on here. There is so much good in all aspects of life. I wake up in the morning and think of all the good things that can happen today! Its like the world is Golden Corral! Its all there for you!

Its like this little boy with his dad at the Tractor Pulls here in town, he was one scared little kiddo when he first came up to the monster truck ride. But after a few positive words, he was ready for the ride of his life! How many of us have missed the ride of our life due to fear or negative thoughts????? Whether it be positive or negative thoughts that we have on our mind, there's a saying "wherever you go, there you are". Folks, if you want to move forward on anything in your life, if its doing good on your job, a great relationship with your spouse, or your hobbies or sports, a positive mindset can get you farther can you can ever imagine. Ive had my fair share of bumps in the road. If I chose to look only at the current circumstances and say, oh wow, there's no good way out of this one, then that would be true. But if I say "okay, how can I make this situation work to my advantage and learn from this," then I'll find a way to make some very good things happen.

Folks, all I know is that I truly believe in the ability of keeping a strong positive mindset. It opens more doors to fantastic opportunities and elevates the quality of your life and happiness. I've noticed here in the country town that I'm in, people love to always talk about the negative things they think they might know about other people. What I've found is the majority of it is nothing but ridiculous rumors. If that same time and energy was spent seeing the good in each other it will definitely change the complete attitude and mindset of this town or any other person or community.  I believe most negativity is derived from fear and insecurity.  I could write a book on this subject alone. But there's no need to, there's enough of them out there for you to read. My purpose here is to direct each of us to begin to assess ourselves and make a positive change for the good. Even if it's just a sincere smile to our self in the mirror and to say "I believe in you"! If we believe in ourselves, then we can begin to find the good in each other. Take a moment and think about the possibilities. What would happen if you walked up to your spouse, looked them sincerely in the eyes and told them that you dearly loved them and you want to do your best to make them happy? The people in your circle, shake their hand or give them a hug and say "what can we do to make some good things happen today", your job, "what can I do today to make my day at work the best possible day yet? How can I be more productive? More proactive in a positive manner? :) Well I hope this gives us something to think about! May God Bless all of you! Keep it powerfully positive people!

Rainy Evening on Main Street

Well its a nice rainy evening here on main street. The street is quiet and the main street bar has the local drunks doing the usual. I'm sitting here at my desk thinking about all the new business ventures that have been created over the holidays! Our Lamb Meat is going into a number of Five Star restaurants in the surrounding major cities! And we are starting to ship to a few all natural stores across the country! The year is definitely starting off on the right foot! I'm learning a lot about the need for farm to table foods. With Monsanto desperately making attempts to keep the public blinded to the GMO's and other forms of modified foods, is only increasing the public awareness and desire for an all natural diet. So farmers, pay attention! If you can tend to your crops in an all natural fashion, you have an audience that is truly looking to you to do the right thing and supply them with a chemical free product. You can go to www.eatwild.com and choose from all the all natural foods and farmers that are there you. Enjoy, and I hope you have a great evening!

A Nice Christmas Day!

Good morning and Merry Christmas to all of you! Well, the Christmas parades are on TV, people are heading to Church to celebrate this wonderful day, and the landscape is cool and quiet here on the farm. I'm sitting here with you drinking a cup of Hazelnut coffee with honey, thinking about the mistakes that have been made as well as all the wonderful things that have taken place this year. Ive watched children smile as they get to pet a baby lamb, families having fun as they ride the horses and enjoy a nice steak dinner by the pond. Ive had the pleasure to meet people from all across the globe that have come to ride with us. Ive met someone from the IMF in France, National radio hosts, Ceo's from major companies, and tons of fantastic people that have shared their hearts and lives with me while sitting at our campfire in the woods with a few glasses of wine.

Now to look forward and see what the future has in store. I'll take my lessons learned from the past and will improve going forward. I was doing my typical thing last night of watching a netflix movie with popcorn, and one of the actresses made a statement, "The ones you care about, you have to be involved in "their" lives." The town I live in has a lot of negativity in it. I almost let it get a hold of me. I came here with a very positive mindset and a can do attitude. I plan not to lose that. Jesus said let your light shine before men. hmmmm, a little time for reflection, are we conscious of doing that? Its amazing as brilliant and profound that Christ truly is. Something so simple goes so far and does so much good. Well I'm not going to get on my soap box here! But I do think this is a wonderful time to think about the future and those around you that you might not have let your light shine around them. Have a wonderful Christmas ya'll, and may the Light be with you all!

Morning Thoughts.

Good morning ya'll! This morning I'm sitting at my dining room table looking out across the arena into the pasture over the road where a neighbor has a heard of cattle grazing. The morning air is cool and crisp and the ground is damp from the winter rains yesterday. I take a sip of my coffee and begin to think about the tasks and events that will go on today. First on the agenda is to go out and feed all the critters her on the farm. The chickens and the geese are already starting to sound off, saying "where's my breakfast!" Scout, one of my German Shepherds, is barking and wanting me to come out and play with him. Scout and I usually go into town together. He enjoys the rides!

The rest of the day will consist of thinking about Christmas and what it truly means. Sometimes we get caught up in our day to day life, that we actually forget to care for one another and do good for each other. One of the best things that a person can do, I believe, is to build other people up. The town I live in, I see so much negativity and pessimism, That can be so destructive to a persons life. Positive reinforcement can build and create so many things in our own lives as well as our community. I'm a strong believer in this.
