10. JUST KEEP GOING

Many battles have been won in our history by the victor simply wearing out the other side's resistance. They cut off supplies, food, water, heat and power and make life so miserable that the ones under siege finally surrender in defeat, not knowing what else to do.

Just as there are desk calendars and digital apps that give you a new dictionary word each day to stimulate your understanding and encourage expansion into a broader vocabulary, we can do the same thing with our thoughts. Let's find ways to expand and to question the status quo.

First, choose who and what you want to collaborate with. It's our inadvertent collusions that get us in trouble in life, because without understanding the universal laws, we allow ourselves to be drawn into the mental force field of negativity, and thus create unwanted outcomes.

The kind of collaborating we're looking for here is in support of issues and rights that are dear to the heart of progressive thinkers. You may wish to take another

look at the Issues section in Part One to get ideas and inspiration on where to start.

Perhaps you enjoy working with children and teens—look for ways to collaborate on the issues related to education. Perhaps coach a team on weekends and after school. Teach an arts and crafts class in an after-school program. Get involved in your local PTA and let your voice be heard.

The worst thing we can do is come to a halt, like a stalled car on the freeway. It's a waste of our opportunities; it's a waste of the gift of life. If you are feeling stuck, start with one small action every morning that makes you feel good.

By creating happier feelings inside, we attract more happiness for ourselves and others. Soon, ideas will pop into your mind for something that you'd enjoy doing, and it will seem magical how everything comes together quickly in support of your new dream.
