I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I hope you'll be able to reconnect to your home and memories through the movie.

I think that as with any kind of writing, responding to a prompt can sometimes spark nothing... but for me, if I just start writing something, anything, an idea will come.

Sometimes I have to really think hard and if nothing comes just admit it and move on to the next one.

I like these 3 prompts too.

These are good prompts. I've been around the 30-Day for awhile so some were familiar. Now I'm trying to learn to spin them in a new way or make the old news work better.

Paradigms

PROMPT March 17th

Is success a result of luck, or hard work? Neither? Both? Read this article and share your thoughts. https://jamesclear.com/luck-vs-hard-work

Sadly I am not a fan of James Cleer. Yes, he has some ideas on how to improve habits, but what he subscribes is only one piece of the prescription. And it might not even be the underlying issue.

I believe success is neither luck nor hard work. It's a matter of shifting your paradigm. We are all born with paradigms we've inherited but we also need to acknowledge, then accept, then shift those paradigms. It's what we believe within ourselves that brings us to success. It's not really who we are that holds us back, it's who we think we're NOT.

I believe we should realize our DNA is perfect. Perfect! And yet, we allow old paradigms to hold us back and prevent us from becoming who we really are. I believe we reject what we REALLY want because of old paradigms that hold us back. To change our results we must shift our paradigms.

A great thought leader named Thomas Troward wrote an essay called, "Yourself". It's beautiful and anyone can find it for free online. But it speaks to who we really are as individuals. No luck involved.

I believe we can break through and shift the paradigms that hold us back. Case in point: myself. I studied hard and shifted some detrimental paradigms in my own life. And now I feel I'm exactly where I should be. Thanks to Bob Proctor, Sandy Gallagher and of course, other thought leaders like Thomas Troward.

I realize my opinions here may not be popular. My intent is not to offend anyone. Honestly, I'd love for everyone to check it out...Paradigm Shift. There's lots and lots and lots of good stuff out there.

So here's to your success, and happy St. Patrick's Day to Everyone!
