Protecting What Matters Is Necessary Now More Than Ever!

If “what matters” is for you to function in a free society; if “what matters” is to protect your family, friends, and relationships from the fallout that is in a future without freedom, safety, and security; and if “what matters” is having peace of mind, then you need to accept some things you would rather not know or be bothered with and confront what you would rather not face.

You may want to investigate this though more. We need to become proactive in what Congress is doing to protect our businesses and our way of life. If we don’t, we will lose what we have enjoyed throughout the years.

Don’t take the last statement as a political point of view because it is not; it is a reality we are facing right now. Consider what you can do to counteract the mistakes of policy makers and take action in protecting your family. That’s why I have posted links to OurdayShopping.com changing over to WhatMattersStore.com.

I have been paying close attention to what’s been going on in Washington the past ten years and so I know things you would rather not know, believe me. Please heed my warning and spend money on food storage, seeds, and greenhouses, as well as emergency supplies.

Don’t believe me and just let things happen is putting your family in jeopardy. I wish you would trust my judgment and, at least spend a little money now to put a few items aside in case I’m right. Like my son said, when I told him to put on a long sleeve shirt and long pants before riding the motorcycle to work, “I’m glad I listened to you” after a car hit him head-on as it came around a blind curve. I may say it too many times and become a squeaky wheel, but I am hoping some of you might listen.

I’m telling you that I have been paying close attention to what’s been going on in Washington the past decade and I know things you would rather not know, believe me, so please heed my warning and spend money on food storage, seeds, and greenhouses, as well as emergency supplies.

Don’t believe me and let things happen is putting your family in jeopardy. I wish you would trust my judgment and, at least spend a little money now to put a few items aside in case I’m right. That’s all I will say on this subject for now.

It is usually easier to live in default and allow things to come at you and then react –throwing up your hands and saying “I can’t do anything about it anyway”. . . I am only one person and what I think or say or do won’t change anything” — than it is to do something proactive that’s uncomfortable but necessary. Being in the driver’s seat to have “what matters” requires effort and often means swimming up stream and against the current.

You’ve probably figured out by now that, with 24 domain names and more than that in blogs on WordPress and self-hosting, I am very committed to helping people who feel as I do or who suffer from the type of depression I spoke of earlier.

Every day it gets harder to handle the news we hear on television (what little truths they allow us to hear) or read some of the propaganda they put in newspapers and magazines today. It is even harder to sift through the abundance of information available to us on the Internet without learning more than we want to know.

It is no wonder that people are feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the chaos that comes with living in our times, and no wonder they feel helpless in protecting “what matters” to them.

I am here to help you with all of that, but in some cases, I will add to your stress level by reporting on things you need to know but would rather not know right now. I realize that this is a strange statement to make because it is not what you expect to hear from me after reading the previous paragraphs. However, YOU MUST know the truth about what is going on every single day that threatens “what matters” to you and to me.

Even though you probably don’t want to know all that I know, there are some things I can tell you that you need to know but without stressing you out or causing you to become overwhelmed. If you resist the truth and not face what you should, it will only get harder for you to protect “what matters” and find peace of mind.

You’ve probably heard it said that FREEDOM is not free because someone has to pay the price for it. The more of us who share the load and pay the price, the easier it will be to protect that which the enemy among us in sheep’s clothing is trying to steal from us. . . and they will succeed in that mission if we continue to be in default and not engage ourselves.

We cannot depend on mainstream media to report honest and unbiased news anymore, which to me, is unacceptable. For a candid look at events that are not being reported by NBC, ABC, or CBS, and sometimes CNN, then perhaps you will check on my blog at CanWeBelieveIt.Info. However, be prepared to deal with truths you may not want to know and to be proactive instead of staying in default.

If “what matters” is for you to function in a free society, and if “what matters” is toprotect your family, friendships, and relationships from the fallout of a future without freedom, safety, and security, and if “what matters” is peace of mind, then you need to consider my comments in this posting and ask yourselves if you are prepared to pay the price for what is required of you to make that happen.

It is usually easier to live in default and allow things to come at you and then react –throwing up your hands and saying “I can’t do anything about it anyway” — than it is to do something that’s uncomfortable but necessary.

When you identify the things that really matter to you, and make choices that protect those things the best you can, then everything else doesn’t matter does it?

Are you living in default or are you in the driver’s seat?

First

Consider that it doesn’t matter if you are dissatisfied with life’s situations and the problems you face; it is what it is. What you need to do is accept things as they are and find a way to deal with it in a manner that you can accept.

Second

Consider that your attitude about life events affects the habits you develop and what you get back from life.

• In general, a positive attitude reaps positive responses from people you interact with and life gives back what you reflect in your expectations.
• A negative attitude reaps negativity from people around you and sets you up for a negative response from life.
• A healthy attitude makes a huge difference in your ability to make wise decisions,
  • affecting how proactive you are in engaging yourself in life,
  • and affecting the position you place yourself because of choices you make and the consequences you receive.

Did you catch what I just said?

Let me break this down for you.

• Attitude makes a difference in how proactive you are in choices you make, and whether you are living in default or sitting in the driver’s seat of life.
• Sitting in the driver’s seat means you are making your own decisions instead of waiting for something to happen and then let it drag you down.
• Instead of looking at your attitude and accepting the lesson you can learn from a bad situation, you go to the same place you always go to when you don’t like what life dishes out to you: being angry with God, your parents, your employer or anyone you think has it better than you.
• Living in default means that, instead of realizing life sometimes hands out doses of misfortune to everyone and you are no different or think you are singled out for some reason, you just throw up your hands and give up!
• You develop a bad attitude toward those who have a better life than you when you live in default instead of being proactive.
• You blame people for what they have that you don’t and want, rationalizing that they had better opportunities than you without knowing if that is really true, and then expect them to help you out because they live better than you.
• Sitting in the driver’s seat means that, instead of forcing someone to make decisions for you because you can’t or won’t, you make your own decisions and take responsibility for them.

Be around positive people

I am talking about being around people who are positive thinking, who have a healthy self-worth, and hope and vision for a better tomorrow. These type of people keep you motivated and focused on what matters instead of caving in to the problems going on around you.

Does this mean

You ignore reality and keep your head in clouds? Of course not. You have to be balanced in your life and have a healthy perspective of what is going on around you. It means you associate with people who understand the situations you face and know how to appropriately respond to challenges and still be in the driver’s seat of life.

Comments

As always, I invite you to leave a comment on this subject. I would love to hear from you.

GOD

I suspect one thing that matters is your faith in God, that He is in charge of what happens on earth without dwelling on the fact that He allows evil to prevail through agency and choice, and that He will protect and guide you.

FREE SOCIETY

Another thing I suspect matters is your ability to function in a free society, that you have a choice to bear arms, to speak about things that are not politically correct, to protest government policy that you don’t agree with,  and to make dreams come true if you are willing to work hard and do the right things that get you what you want. Not many nations have this ability, and so you appreciate your own power to affect destiny.

RELATIONSHIPS

I also suspect “what matters” is your family, friends, and relationships. You value them and want a positive situation that allows you to enjoy the benefits of their association with you.

INCOME

In addition, I suspect “what matters” is having safety and security, peace of mind, and a job or profession that allows you to earn an income and acquire possessions.

Now let me ask you this:

• How many of the things that matter to you are at risk of being compromised or lost today?
• What do you plan to do about it and to protect what you value?
• What will happen to “what matters” if you choose to live in default, allowing the world around you to dictate your life?
• What will happen to “what matters” if you choose to live proactively by putting yourself in the driver’s seat?

I would like to hear your answer to the questions I just asked you. I would also like to know what you are doing to protect “What Matters” to you and your family?
