Entertainment Value

You are, where you are in life because it is where you have seen yourself headed.  

Okay, maybe you did not specifically wish to go there, but you are there now because it was the direction your focus took you.  

We have all heard the saying, “What you think about, you bring about.”    So we think about where we wish to go and we get this nice warm feeling.  We are not talking about THAT kind of thinking in this case. We are talking about the rest of the time.    The things you focus on when you are not focusing on your goals. 

Let's think about entertainment:  TV shows, Movies, seemingly meaningless banter between friends.  The news, gossip, meetings, discussions, and in particularly Facebook posts.      

These inputs of information all build up in energy and have either a positive effect on your life or an adverse effect.     Let's look at these like you would look at your bank account.   You have deposits and withdrawals. Each entertainment that you put your attention into, has an effective value to it.   Some of the values are increasing your energy and some of them are depleting your supply.    

Just like activities in your life increase the surplus in your bank account while others make withdrawals.   Such as: Working at your job increases your funds while going out shopping decreases it.

Let's take a look at how you will know if an entertainment is increasing your supply or decreasing it. As you are enjoying reading through your friend's Facebook posts.  Notice if the post left you feeling inspired or agitated? Uplifted or let down?  

If you notice that you have a friend whose posts are always about things that are pulling from your supply...   Send that person a blessing and ask for their focus to be changed to one of appreciation.   Then use the filters provided by Facebook and stop following that friend's posts.

If the post itself is an upsetting topic, send a blessing again to the topic and hide the post from your timeline. If you feel it is important to pass on this information.  Write a short blessing for the situation and send that on.  

Let the awareness of what is happening remind you of what you want to see happen and that you wish to fill your account to overflowing.        

Do this with all of life.   When you are watching a movie notice if it is making you feel uncomfortable and bless the situation in the movie.  You can either stop watching or keep blessing your way through the film.      

Use your entertainment to enrich your life and add supply to your life force energy.
