483 - What really changed?

Two years ago there was a pandemic and they say the earth changed.

BREAKING NEWS - The earth is exactly as it was, still in the same orbital position, nothing changed. Nothing is different except that we changed our minds.

Too many people chose fear. Too many glued themselves to mainstream media and believed everything they were told.

Our brains are a miracle we’ve barely begun to understand everything that our brains can do, but we know our thoughts are our own.

No one has control over your thoughts except you.

Each individual, each couple with children, each business owners with employees. We all have the ability to decide how we will think about whatever happens and how to respond.

Case in point: When the US shutdown back in 2020, many businesses and Chambers of Commerce failed completely.

In the small town of Boerne, Texas, near San Antonio, the Chamber of Commerce brought in new businesses every month the pandemic, and hasn't stopped.

The President of the Greater Boerne Chamber of Commerce (boerne.org), @Kim Blohm, held public zoom meetings with the mayor to keep business owners and the public informed.

We added new members every month because of the teamwork and dedication of the staff of the chamber.

There was no hand wringing, no conspiracy theories, and no doubt that we wouldn't pull through a tough time to come out stronger than before.

That's how real people respond to sudden change. They reach out and hold everyone together.

They don't cower behind locks doors like the victims in a B-rated Hollywood doomsday flick waiting for the "hero" to arrive.

They did what needed to be done without thinking about Hollywood labels.

The Earth is exactly as it was and always will be for many lifetimes.

We need people who will take a deep breath and ask, "Who can I help next?".

The world is however you perceive it to be, however you decide to see it.

There will be more sickness, war and more tragedies. How you will respond to them and everyone around you will get through them easier.

How do you choose to show up when there's sudden change for your family, business and employees?
