Have you been doing what you always have done and getting what you always have got? If you answered yes to this question, then you probably have been on the right track but the track is set on the wrong field. There are so many people that feel like they are doing the right thing but often find that they could be doing better. Instead of doing the right thing, consider doing things right. People often learn about business, strategy, total quality, six sigma, and a host of human resource practices but they cannot apply what they have learned to their daily life.

By Guest Blogger, Amanda Taylor

First off, I am honored to be invited by Joy to share this guest post with the Life Passion Network.

God and the Law of Attraction

By Guest Blogger, Nena Jackson

When I read the book, The Secret, I found myself intrigued by the connection to God and the Law of Attraction. The Secret presents the Law of Attraction has something generic in our universe that is available for everyone to use in their daily life.

Have you recently found yourself in a financial slump? Do you find it difficult to connect with and establish a win win situation with people you just met? Does it seem like the walls are closing in on you and you have no place to go? Many people find themselves in these same situations due to their limited knowledge and personal beliefs – all the while, longing to experience love, importance, prosperity, health, and lasting relationships. Recently, I had a conversation with a friend that really embodied an act of random kindness and the law of reciprocity.

Why Do Bad Things Happen To Me?

By Guest Blogger, Ashley Dais

My client came to me the other day and said, “why can’t I get a break, why do bad things keep happening to me?” I explained to him that his thoughts of, “bad things always happening to me,” creates his reality of bad things actually happening to him.
