Gratitude when you do not feel grateful

  Gratitude when you do not feel grateful Few years ago I had a good life, and yet I found myself complaining and complaining about all the small insignificant details. I knew I was supposed to practice gratitude, but when you are in a role of complaining, there are no feelings of gratitude coming to you, or so you think, because you start seeing everything from a filter, a dark filter. From time to time, even though I realized what happened then (lost everything I had), I find myself not “feeling” the motivation or whatever you want to call it, to just sit down and feel grateful, let alone write it down. So if you have those moments, how can you shift, and practice gratitude when you do not feel like it? Let me start by saying that you have to understand something, it's ok to have human feelings, even the negative ones!  Most likely, when you do not feel grateful, or even feeling like practicing gratitude, and especially if you are a good person, this can happen, and there are fee

Complaining About The Not So Perfect Picture This Year At The Fireworks Show

  Last year Fireworks Pictures came out amazing!! The parking area was perfect 🤩 this year the parking area was moved out to a place where there was lights on, and people parking with their cars had the lights on as well I started complaining!!! Then I remind myself of WWVVD? What would VV do? My future self … what would she do?   She will take the moment, leave the broccoli on the side, and enjoy the darn chicken nuggets (refer to my last podcast episode about this metaphor)   Check Out My YouTube Channel I remind myself of the effect in the energy of money that brings complaining….   Lets dive into this mindset and see some changes 🌟 Complaining vs. Making the Best of the Moment: Why It Matters for Your Financial Mindset 🌟 Have you ever found yourself stuck in a cycle of complaining about your financial situation?

An Entry from My Journal

I’m not sure why I have been so afraid of using my credit cards, even after paid them off, when I realized, it’s the stupid ideology society makes around debt!  I reject this ideology it’s no longer mine! My new belief is around overflow where money always comes to donate, pay bills, spend, save, invest, enjoy and MORE! Those were the words I said to me after a night of writing on my journal after a meditation practice  Yesterday I finally used my credit card to put gas in my car, and well although the pump seemed slow and part of my mindset is that I value my time more than money, I decided to cut it and fill it out the tank later, but I went “ok I’ll let it fill till $15 for now” after it was done it marked $15.01. I smiled and said, it’s ok money always comes to me and my bill is cover, right before I got in my car I found a penny on the ground!!! I smiled, chuckled  , looked up and said “thank you God”  It came from a deep sense of gratitude. When I arrived home, I received a notif

Why is Manifesting so against some people in certain religions?

  Why is Manifesting so against some people in certain religions? I have to get into a deeper self concept here, yes, reading and searching, but like anything else related to religion, the answer is deep in your soul. Some people I have noticed the tremendous rejection of manifesting, and even saying “Do you mean Manifesting or Praying?” well see the thing is that manifesting doesn't happen without praying. Manifesting is the act of calling into something we desire, want, aspire to into our physical reality, that means, we want to experience that desire into our lives. So if you are calling it, what do you mean? To what process are you calling it? You are calling it through prayer. Prayer is the act of expression to request something (desire, want, aspiration, help, even gratitude) in our lives. I remember when I mentioned the bible and I quote “ Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Mark 11:24.  If you are pr

Scam vs Fraud: Understanding the Key Differences

  Scam vs Fraud: Understanding the Key Differences In the world of finance and banking, the terms 'scam' and 'fraud' are often used interchangeably, but they hold distinct meanings and implications. As a banker with a keen interest in protecting consumers, I find it crucial to clarify these concepts. Understanding the differences can help individuals and businesses safeguard themselves against these deceptive practices. What is a Scam? A scam refers to a deceptive scheme or trick designed to cheat someone out of something, typically money. Scams are characterized by: Deception : The scammer presents false information or creates a misleading situation. Motivation for Personal Gain : The primary goal is to benefit the scammer at the expense of the victim. Voluntary Participation : Often, the victim is lured into the scheme through promises of unrealistic returns or rewards. Examples of Scams: Lottery Scams : Where victims receive messages claiming they've won a large

Ordinary Woman making Extraordinary tiny steps

An Ordinary Woman making Extraordinary tiny steps. From the Instagram Post on Mindful Tasks Academy I remember sitting in my class on the last semester, and the teacher shared the information about the potential career we can expect ahead, on the board he wrote two columns, the financial advisor and the financial planner option, the next line under each career he wrote the numbers that, potentially, these careers can have in return, on financial advisor he wrote 100k a year, and under financial planner 50k a year, he also explain the reason why financial advisor was potentially higher than financial planner, most kids in the classroom, I said kids because I was a woman in my late 30s and early 40s when I return to a classroom, and the kids were mid 20s or even some early 20s.  Ok, so the kids were very enthusiastic about making 100k a year, at this point I had already put on my vision board 90k a year. My military career had just ended, and I was more towards Financial Planner because
