There are basic laws and principles that control our mental world just as there are basic laws and principles that control our physical world. One of the physical laws that control our physical world is the Law of Gravity. As you know the force of gravity works 100 percent of the time and is not dependent on whether you are aware of the existence of the law or not. The law in itself is neutral; meaning that it is consistent and continually occurs correctly. Although many of us have experienced a negative money glitch during this financial crisis, the law of gravity is ongoing and recurrent.
Mental laws occur 100 percent of the time as well. Deepak Chopra a spiritual leader, physician, and author defines mental laws as being, “the process of which the unmanifest becomes manifest, or the avenue through which the dreamer manifests the dream.” If you never explored the idea of mental laws that generate positive or negative outcomes, I encourage that you learn more about this process. Generally there is believed to be 7 mental laws that influence your success. These 7 laws commonly have the same meaning however; the terminology may differ from author to author. The 7 laws listed in Dr. Dennis P, Kimbro’s book What Makes the Great, Great are:
o Law of Practice Law of Mental Equivalency
o Law of Control Law of Expectation
o Law of Reciprocity Law of Forgiveness
o Law of Habit
While all play an important part in how you see our world and the type of success one might or might not attain; I am choosing to focus only on the Laws of Habit for this article. We are all creatures of habit, and those habits virtually control everything that we do. Hence, demonstrates the importance of ensuring that your negative money glitch does not become habit forming during this economic recession. If you were used to “viewing the glass half full” prior to this year then chances are that you have a positive outlook for surviving this recession and regaining all that you have lost.
Take a look at what you are saying concerning your present money glitch situation. If your talk, walk, and thoughts are self-defeating to the success you desire in the future then you must change the habits that are no longer consistent with your objectives. Generally it has been said that it takes only 30 days to change a habit or create a new habit. So begin by choosing positive words to replace the negative words you have been using. Read, read, and listen to positive material that will in turn generate positive thoughts. Seek mentors that mimic the person you want to become. And remember a money glitch technically is neutral in that it can be either negative or positive. So form great habits and continue to move forward through this financial crisis into your bliss. Here’s a great poem for generating thought:
I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half the things you do you might just as well turn over to me and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed—you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done and after a few lessons I will do it automatically. I am the servant of all great men; and alas, of all failures, as well. Those who are great, I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a man. You may run me for profit or run me for ruin—it makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will place the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you. Who am I? I am habit! –by Anonymous

My negative money glitch happened 16 months ago, when I was laid off from a job that had lasted almost ten years. Fortunately, I had the opportunity to have access to DBM one of the world’s leading providers of global outplacement, coaching, and career management firm that provides services for effective career transitions. This company assists you in locating and re-evaluating your career path, revamping your resume, improving you interviewing techniques and so much more. My previous company paid for this service as part of my severance package for a little over a month. I toiled over rewriting resume after resume to create that perfect one. Within that month I attended webinar after webinar on interviewing etiquette, face to face networking, and so much more. The last webinar training was on social networking and how important it was to build a network of people before it became necessary to do so. I know a little late for me to find this out, hence creating another little money glitch. However, it was explained that social media not only should be used in finding a job, but to create a network of people that could keep you informed of opportunities that were happening within the workforce for the duration of your career.
This occurred prior to the near financial collapse and admittedly at that time I had only a few people that were actually connected to me within a social media group. I discovered that my friends, family, and co-workers when it came to social networking online; they were not interested or just were not that internet savvy. The negative money glitch recession that we’re presently enduring has increased job competition to tremendous new highs. There was a job fair a few weeks ago in Houston, in which 2,000 people showed up for the 500 jobs that were available. Presently, these 1 to 4 ratios or more exist though out the country while we wait for the economy to rebound. For this reason job seekers have to look for ways to become more marketable and create an edge to become the winner of a new position. Some of you are probably thinking that you don’t have the time to interact with strangers or you may be like me in that you want to keep your privacy. Well, based on my personal struggles in becoming more marketable in order to attain that right job opportunity; I can tell you that it is important to learn to utilize the networking tools.
If you are online using any of the social networking tools like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter, I’m sure that you have noticed the high numbers of HR, hiring managers, and recruiters that are also using these tools to network and make new contacts. It has been said that some jobs are advertised only on these social media sites because the employers feel they have a better opportunity of getting to know the “real” individual they are hiring. If you don’t belong to any networking groups then you are unaware of the positive money glitches that you are missing. It is “in” to be LinkedIn the professional networking group designed for the job seekers and employers in mind by creating relationship building opportunities and keeping its members informed of new opportunities. On Twitter you get short tweets from businesses, marketers, recruiters, the latest news, and more. There have been several tweets and stories concerning members that have heard about jobs here first. VisualCv allows you to create your online resume, interact with other professionals and submit your resume to jobs that are posted with that website. Facebook started out to be mostly for friends and family to communicate, however, during this money glitch recession, it too has become a tool for businesses, marketers, and job seekers to interact and conduct business. There are many, many other social media sites that offer some or all of the services that the fore mention does. In my opinion if you are a job seeker and you are not using at least one of these networking tools you are crippling your job search.
