It\u2019s so easy to get caught up in the problems going on in the world. You hear and see all the all the problems going on with the economy, international threats, health issues, etc. It\u2019s common take on those problems and feel the weight of needing them fixed. Watching, listening to or reading about all the scary, negative situation can suck you into thoughts about how it needs fixing. You may also feel personally about it all:<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cMY world is falling apart.\u201d
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cWhat will happen if WE invade Iran?\u201d
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cOUR economy just won\u2019t pick up.\u201d<\/p>\n

That may lead to your trying to figure out what options there are and how they can affect your life, as if you have a say in it all. That creates stress! And stress doesn\u2019t feel good. But taking on the world\u2019s problems and allowing them into your thoughts often keep you on a negative track\u2014one which is not good to manifest from.\u00a0 This naturally leads to stressful thoughts with concerns about solutions to problems that feed the negative emotions, such as:<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cTuberculosis is on the rise. What if I get it?<\/strong> The country needs to find the reasons and do something about it. Maybe they can come up with a vaccine. I need to research and find out how to protect myself<\/em>.\u201d If you think like this you send thoughts of disease out to the Law of Attraction and you\u2019re more likely to attract from a place of fear that you\u2019ll get it, upping your chances of actually catching it.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cWhat if nuclear bomb is used in the Middle East?<\/strong> Can the radiation reach me? Will we have another war? WE need to find out if there\u2019s a bomb that\u2019s ready. There must be some kind of technology to detect it, and wipe it out.<\/em>\u201d Al of this mulling over Middle East problems keeps you fearful and on edge. You can\u2019t do anything about it but feel like you need to be part of the process. And you know what I\u2019ve said that fear attracts.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cMany foreign countries have economies that are falling apart.<\/strong> It could hurt our economy. What if our banking system fails because of it. We need to do something to stop it.<\/em>\u201d The only economy you can work on is your own. Worrying about the world economy is useless, unless you like feeling bad. And feeling bad doesn\u2019t create any positive emotions to attract from.<\/p>\n

Carrying the weight of the world\u2019s problems around with you will keep your body from feeling good. Leave handling these problems to the heads of countries and policy makers so you can focus on improving your own little world and bringing more happiness and good feelings into it. When you attract from that positive place, you\u2019ll have the Law of Attraction on your side to manifest what YOU, not the worl, needs.<\/p>\n

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start & Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4214","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4214"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4214\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4366,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4214\/revisions\/4366"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4214"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4214"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4214"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
