Yesterday I go to my favorite place to get caught up on the news.  The first news headline was a Michael Jackson story.  So was the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, ……. all told this site had 11 different stories about a dead guy all on the same day.

Why?

Why do you buy tabloids?  Why do you go to the movies? Why are you so curious about a dead guy, celebrities?

In 2007 I stood before a pack ball room on the top of the Hyatt Hotel in West Hollywood California on the Sunset stripe.  Right around 200 people come out to hear my message.  As a former professional speaker, my message was very simple and people paid me thousands of dollars to deliver that message.  I remember this event like it was yesterday.  The mood was low, the energy gone and the faces empty.  To me this was a collection of people who were looking for something and I knew the moment I looked into their eyes that they had lost their HOPE.

I believe that society has stolen your HOPE!

Your looking for something right now.  Laughter, more money, a better life, less stress, a better career, this list goes on forever because I’ve heard them all.  As a kid playing with your friends in the sandbox, you didn’t conscientiously say “when I grow up I want to grind out a commute to a job I can’t stand, in a professional workstation (cubicle) that’s so small I can’t fit my fat ass in it.  I further want to be under paid and under appreciated, I want to drink heavily because of the stress and ingest artificial substances to numb my emotional pain.  I want to make my boss look good and to be passed over for the big promotion.  I want to feel tired, empty, alone and since this is as good as it gets and god has abandoned me, I guess this all I can do.”  But deep down you want more out of life…………..and you’ve lost your hope so why even try?

Your entire life is psychology.  You do outward actions hoping to find inward answers – That’s Golden Write It Down.

Ask yourself this question?

Today create a list of the top 5 things you want to do or see before you die.  Now pick one and set a date when you will do it.  Tonight, tomorrow start working to make it happen and I promise you hope will return and you will start to dream, energy will return and your smile will return.

I know your shy so I’ll start by sharing two things I still need to do.

1- Amateur’s night at a comedy club – In process, writing material
2- Audition for a motion picture – Aug 30th 2011
