Through the years, as programs began to advance into the modern-day era, we were bombarded by all sorts of issues that we never had to deal with before. It was okay to divorce. It was okay to cheat, lie, steal and mistreat your friends. It was okay to listen to offensive lyrics of songs and to watch videos that depicted all sorts of depravity. And what did we do about it, absolutely nothing. We just sat and accepted it.

An entire generation was lost to MTV. We now watch shows that are billed as “reality T.V. which are so far from reality that we should be ashamed of ourselves for even watching. And we wonder, as adults, what has happened to our society. DUH!

Let me tell you now about the Magic Button I mentioned in the headline of this article. It is called the ON BUTTON. We get up in the morning, push the ON BUTON and then go about our day with this mindless “entertainment” filling our heads and stealing our valuable time. We don’t even give it a second thought. But what has it really done as it relates to how we live our lives and advance through life? Most importantly it has stolen our willingness to learn. We now believe most if not everything that is presented as fact on the programs we watch. Elections are run through our T.V. rather than our going to sources we trust and deciding for ourselves what is truth and what isn’t. Unless you are able to advertise on T.V. your business won’t succeed…or so we’re told. It’s all a bunch of bunk!

So what is the solution to the ON BUTTON? Well, here is the hidden secret you’ve read this far to get to. It is called THE OFF BUTTON! If you’re willing to push the OFF BUTTON on your Television an entire new world will open up to you. Amazingly enough you will discover that you have a brain and that it still works. Your business will thrive because you will have time to actually think about what is important and worthy of your time. You’ll find that you have original ideas that produce income and you didn’t even have to hear about it from anybody else! Whew, what a relief!

So, the next time you become frustrated over the fact that you just aren’t getting ahead in life, that your business isn’t doing as well as you had hoped or that your family just doesn’t seem to be close… do this one thing:

Hit the off button!

I guess I’ve rambled on long enough for this posting. I hope it has opened some eyes. If it has, let me know by posting a comment. I really enjoy feedback on my articles and postings. I’m still learning too. And yes, I have learned to hit the Off BUTTON myself. Guess what? The grass is green, books are getting read that I bought months ago and my family actually wants to go on a vacation. WHO WOULDA’ THUNK’?
