Back in the office
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Mathew 11:28
It was a quiet day today nothing out of the ordinary. Just took a couple of tech calls, finished building a computer and installing software on that same computer.

Back home
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mathew 7:21
Continuing with the second AHA this one says that to be an Enlightened Millionaire you must love what you DO, add enormous value, and leverage it, but to do that you must first BE an Enligtened Millionaire. The Enlightened Millionaire doesn't get out of survival he/she starts outside of survival regardless of how much money he/she initially has.
The Enlightened Millionaire knows and acts from the space that: For the Enlightened Millionaire, it's all about giving. It is never about getting.

An inventory of my thoughts
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Luke 6:45
This is an inventory of my predominant thoughts from yesterday 6/26/2003:
- Early in the morning I felt guilty because of my lower back pain I feel that that's happening to me due to the fact that I have been gaining weight and also due to a lack of exercise.
- Later after I did my exercises and while having breakfast I felt a little tired and that robbed me of some of the excitement of starting a new day.
- Later during the day I went to a computer store to buy some parts that I needed to continue doing the installation and I remember thinking of my not having money to buy some things that I would like to have for myself then that reminded me that I haven't found the money for my daughter's quinces and that made me feel powerless.
- In the evening I went to a restaurant to have dinner and a group of ladies sat down beside me at the restaturant bar where I was sitting. All of them looked pretty much alike, similar hairdo, similar clothing, similar interests and I thought wow! is nice to be able to connect to another human being at that level. Be able to build relationships and friendships and I felt alone because I don't have that. I don't know people who have my same interests and that I could build that kind of relationship with.

Hello world!!
The first AHA; Everyone Manifests
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
Luke 6:38
This AHA explains that pretty much everything you see started as a thought in somebody's mind. The word that describes the turning of thoughts into things is called To Manifest. First you think about something and then you turn it into reality by manifesting it. You are the result of your thoughts if you're not getting what you want you need to examine your thoughts. Everything around you is a manifestation of somebody else's thought and therefore that manifestation made that person a fortune. The computer you're working on, the TV you watch everywhere you look, everything you see has made or is making someone millions. So if you really want to create abundance in your life you need to create thoughts of abundance so they can help you change your financial situation.

Yesterday's post
Here's what I wrote yesterday.A day traveling...
Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?
Luke 5:23
This morning I'm traveling to Las Vegas but not for fun though. While I write this I'm somewhere up in the sky. Of course I won't be able to post this while I'm on the plane but It will be posted as soon as I get somewhere that I can get on the net, whether the hotel or the office I'll be working at.
On the plane I found the last issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine and reading through it I found an article that caught my attention about a guy named Augusten Burroughs who has written a couple of books one called Running with Scissors and another one call Dry. Running with scissors is supposed to be about his really weird childhood. I will read it an then comment on it.

In Utah...
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
Luke 6:31
I couldn't publish anything yesterday because there is no Internet connection at the hotel I'm staying. I will post some of yesterday's thoughts later on today.

Today's thoughts
The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Luke 4:18-19
I started reading the 24 AHA Printouts. These are the steps anyone should follow to become an enlightened millionaire. From today on and for the next 24 days I am going to be writing about my experiences and what I've learned from applying these principles in my life.
I consider very important at this point that I make something very clear. I want to become wealthy but not out of simple love for money but simply because I believe in God's words and that he doesn't want his kids to wonder about life struggling.

Another weekend gone. This week I have to travel to Las Vegas to do an installation, this promise to be an easy one because I have to do fewer things than usual like installing the server, installing the Client software and training the TSR's. Easy huh?
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mark 16:15
I went shopping for a car yesterday, a used one though, and boy there was a surprise in store for me, obviously they had to check my credit, and it was a real disaster. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it, there were all kinds of junk in there even accounts that had been settled long time ago were recently posted to the credit bureaus making my credit score look even worse. Now I have a long way to go trying and dispute all this junk, for what I understand it will be a long and painful process of sending letters back and forth for months to the credit bureaus until it gets resolved. Hopefully in the rather near future I will be able to post an update of how it went.

Three more days have passed and I still haven't come up with an idea to get the money for my daughter's quinces. This is becoming a little too stressfull for me but I have no excuses I have to find the way to get that money. Any ideas???
And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Mark 10:44-45
This is how I should have started my blogging today and this is how I will start it from now on. I will take this opportunity to meditate about this specific bible quote and this will set the mood for my daily morning prayer.

Note for myself: make space for productive activities.
After some thinking I finally got it. I finally know what I need, I NEED TO EXPAND MY HORIZONS, period. I have been stuck in the same rut for sooooo long that I finally got to the point where I understand that I Need to stretch myself and get out of my comfort zone. Another thing I need to do is to make a list of all the unproductive activities that I engage on during the course of a normal day.
June 16, 2003
I'm running out of time... my daughter's quinces are in less than a month and I still don't have the money to pay for all the party's expenses, my wife is putting a lot of pressure on me and she wants me to borrow the money. I do believe it is crazy to borrow money to throw a party but this is a very special date on any hispanic girl's life so I better hurry up and find that money before it gets too late.
