Fw: Help Me Stop Rita!

Have you heard of Joe Vitale before? If you’ve been subscribed a little longer, you must have…

Joe is an author and the world’s first “hypnotic marketer” and with his book “Spiritual Marketing” he really got my attention!

Joe lives in Texas; pretty close to Houston. And that means he’ll be facing Rita pretty soon…

However, he’s taking a very unusual and empowering approach to this and he’s inviting as many people as possible to join in his (spiritual) efforts. Here’s the message in his own words:

Please distribute this to everyone you know. Also, please *do* this. Together, we *can* make a difference. Thank you. - Joe

Help Me Stop Rita
by Dr. Joe Vitale

As I type these words, people in Houston are scrambling to leave the city.

The Mayor has urged many to evacuate.

The next hurricane, Rita, is bigger and badder than Katrina, and it’s headed this way.

Yes, our area is in the path of the hurricane, too.

With luck, by the time it hits mainland Texas, it will have dropped from a category 5 to a category 1 hurricane. We’re stocking up on supplies, like everyone else.

While the world is still reeling from the effects of Katrina, we’re now bracing for something that could be just as bad, or worse.

As I listen to the news, and watch people, the key word that everyone says or seems to breathe is “victim.”

We’re victims of storms.

We’re victims of chance.

We’re victims of a poorly run government.

We’re victims of gas prices, gas shortages, inflation, recession, taxes, wars, and now — the worst of all — Mother Nature.

I’m going to say something unusual. It may upset some people. I’m hoping it will inspire you. Here goes:

You have more power than you think.

While you may not want to stand in the path of Rita, you don’t have to cower under the bed.

As odd as it may sound, I believe that if enough of us think positive, we can create a counter storm of sorts. We can protect ourselves and our loved ones with our thoughts.

I’ve described and proved this with the research in the back of my book, “The Attractor Factor.” Nineteen studies *proved* that when a large group of people hold positive intentions, those intentions radiate out and become reality.

No, I’m not saying ignore the storm warnings. I’m saying don’t get caught up in the fear that the warnings often trigger.

Look. If you think the storm will get you, then it’s already gotten you. You’re living in fear. Your life is dark, gloomy and in a cage. The media is flawless at whipping us into fear.

So I suggest ignoring the media. It’s not information, it’s propaganda. It gets large groups of people to think negative, which of course then becomes reality.

Why can’t we do the opposite?

Why can’t we get large groups of people to think positive?

At this very moment, as I type this and you read this, all is well.

Isn’t it?

Aren’t you ok?

Aren’t you feeling fine right now?

Yes, be sure to have batteries and water and supplies.

But also check the storehouse in your mind.

Are you living in fear, or living in trust?

Are you focused on the negative, or are you doing something to create a positive?

We are all, always, at choice.

My plea is that the readers of my ezine — you — will stop, breathe, and focus; pray, or in some positive way send out an energy that will help dissolve the fear in and around us.

I’m asking you to do this on Saturday, the day Rita is scheduled to visit Texas.

As I was finishing this article, UPS delivered two books to me. Both are timely and worth mentioning.

“Unconditional Bliss” says you can find happiness in the face of hardship.

I think this is relevant. While the media is making us shake in our boots, we can choose to take care of ourselves and others *while* remaining happy.

Happiness is a choice.

The other book looks just as fascinating. It’s “Megatrends 2010″ by Pat Aburdene.

To my surpirse (and delight), the book declares that the future will be more focused on spirit.

Well, let’s create the future right now.

Let’s focus on spirit.

What I’m asking you to do is be happy, right now. Smile. Send that loving energy out, in the direction of Texas. Intend for all to be well, for, in reality, all is well.

In fact, pretend you are the eye of the hurricane. That’s the center where all is at peace. *Be* that peace and send that peace from the eye to the hurricane itself, imagining it dropping in intensity.

We can make a difference.

It begins with you.

What will you choose to think?

Dr. Joe Vitale is the author of way too many books to list here. His latest title is “The Attractor Factor: 5 Easy Steps for Creating Wealth (or anything else) From the Inside Out.” It’s in all book stores and available from Amazon, too.
