This makes no sense. How come you can be positive yet everything can go wrong? How come disappointment exists if your thoughts control reality? lol. How come Native American Shamans didn't use their thoughts to stop their lands from being stolen? lol. See how FALSE all this is? Why do you LIE? Don't you have a conscience?

Agree, much of the US is politically correct. Seattle is very much like ancient Egypt. You know, the great pyramids is a symbol of their secretive culture.Winston wrote: ↑September 19th, 2013, 2:07 pmAs you might know, pretty much all the popular New Age self-improvement gurus out there claim that changing your thoughts and attitude will change your life. But none of them advocate that the answer is in changing your location, like we do. We seem to be the only ones that advocate changing your location as a solution. Why is that?
I think it's because it's politically correct to blame yourself, but not to blame your society or culture. You see, if you focus on changing your thoughts, that connotates that the problem is within you. But if you focus on location as a solution, then you are blaming your society or culture, which is not politically correct. Even personal transformation gurus have to be politically correct.
In reality though, both are factors. Your thoughts do affect your health and your life, but so does your location and the people around you. The problem with these popular transformation gurus, is that they only focus on the former and not the latter.
What do you think?
Here is what I mean. See this video below by Dr. Wayne Dyer and Dr. Bruce Lipton where they talk together on stage. They are both great speakers and authors, and make a great case scientifically for why your thoughts can change your health and even alter your genes. However, they do not recognize the limitations of thoughts, nor do they explain that thoughts and attitudes are merely a factor and that you can't blame everything on them. That's where their flaw lies. But they do present a lot of fantastic groundbreaking information about how attitude affects your body and health more than you know.

Then again, some people go all the way (cognitive dissonance/fallacy of incomplete evidence).
