In my endeavours to create the law of attraction into my life, a lot of times, I allow negative people and circumstances to bring me down and pull me into a place where I find myself drowning in a dark place where I don't want to be.
The main problem we face in not unleashing our brilliance is because we allow too much garbage to pile up and we can’t get through it. As Arbonne President, Rita Davenport says, “Don’t turn your power over to others and never let someone more messed up than you tell you how to live your life.” Our attitude is the one thing we have control over.
Have a joyous and uplifting day!!
Below is an email that a friend sent to me and I wanted to share it with each of you.

Law of the Garbage Truck
One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly.
So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!'
This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.
The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so ... Love the people who treat you right and Pray for the ones who don't.
Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!
Have a Balanced, garbage-free day!
