Being real means being true to your own beliefs, thoughts and opinions and not the beliefs, thoughts and opinions of others.
Being real means telling 'your truth' to yourself rather than mentally parroting the truth of others. 'Your truth' will always make you feel good while the truth of others will not. If 'your truth' doesn't make you feel good, you are not telling your truth to yourself, you are lying to yourself. (For more in-depth information about lying to ourselves, click here.)
Being real means you don't feel bad because of other people's troubles and you don't do things for other people comes from feeling bad about their situation .What you do feel about their situation is love for them. And what you do see is if they were powerful enough to create the troubles they have by the choices they made, then they are powerful enough to make the choices they need to make to solve their problems for themselves.
When you believe people can't solve their own problems, you weakens them. Thinking people aren't capable of solving their own problems is an ego trip. An ego trip most commonly taken by parents whose children are having troubles. Parents take this ego trip out of guilt and blaming themselves for the troubles their children have.
If there is something you can do for people having troubles (family members, friends, strangers) coming from a 'feeling good state of mind' because you genuinely want to do it, and guilt is not part of the equation, by all means do it.
Being real means you do not allow yourself to get dragged into other people's soap operas. You no longer accept the false belief that you must feel bad for others when others feed bad. Feeling bad empowers no one, especially yourself.
Being real means you tell your ugly truth to yourself (things that upset you, piss you off or make you angry) as a way of releasing your 'ugly truth' from your mind so you can be as happy and carefree as you want to be.
Being real means admitting 'when you don't know what to do next' and instead of feeling bad about not knowing what to do next, you relax your mind instead and go play. As my friend Frederick Zappone says, 'In the spirit of play, life is easy'.
Being real means you accept the fact that all thoughts that make you feel good are from God (by whatever name you call God *) and the rest are not.

Once upon a time I faked my way through life. I was very successful by pretending to be something I was not. Pretending was very stressful and robbed me of my peace of mind and dignity. I no longer pretend about anything. On this blog, I am as real as real can get. - Jonathan

I'm an IDIOT, Let me Explain (RTW)
Real Time Writing (RTW) is writing 'your truths,' unedited, moment by moment.
On this blog today I feel the pressure to give you something, not just something but something that is electrifying or something that will dazzle your mind. I fear if I do not, you won't come back and if you don't come back, how will I ever build a solid readership for my blog.
I apologize. I have nothing to give you this morning; no insights, no advice, no smart ass comments. I am depleted and uninspired. I feel like I am trying to satisfy the appetite of a very huge monster I call the vast Internet audience of silent people.
The Internet has cheapened information, especially for people who have a passion for writing like I do. The Internet 'free mentality' has all but killed off the possibility of me making money from my writings on the Internet.
The Internet, is what it is, a massive storehouse of unending free information and thinking I can make money writing a blog like this one is the thinking of a fool. So why do I write a blog and spend money on advertising to have people visit my blog and read what I write? I am an idiot that's why.
I am not only an idiot, I am a contradiction in terms. I understand how the law of attraction works but in this one area of my life I haven't yet made it work for me. In fact, making a living from my writings has resulted in so little money coming into my life that I can claim, without pride, that I have mastered making the law of attraction work against me. I have mastered attracting a lack and scarcity of money in exchange for my writing efforts.
HERE IS THE REAL REASON I CREATED THIS BLOG
I created this blog so I don't have to pretend any more about being a law of attraction guru. I must admit, I am a much better teacher of the law of attraction than a practitioner of the law.
My students have produced amazing results in their life using my L.O.A. teachings. I, on the other hand, do not practice what I preach. God knows I have tried. It is too painful to try any more. I much prefer to be real like I am being with you, right now, rather than pretending to be something I am not,..
If you are looking for an excellent law of attraction teacher visit my friend Frederick Zappone's website. I mentored him for 10 years, He is the best student I ever had, far exceeding my ability to master using the law of attraction. Frederick, over the years became a very good friend of mine and he is the very first person I revealed myself to in regardless to what a fake and a fraud of a person I felt I had become.
My spilling my guts to him shocked him, at first, but then he realized that just because I felt like I was a fake and fraud that didn't negate the value of what he learned from me. My teachings helped him become a master of the law of attraction. My student became the master. He became what I wanted to become and could not.
From this experience I learned my purpose in life was not to master the law of attraction myself. My purpose in life is to show people how to gently peel away the mask of 'who they are not' so they can become the person they are suppose to become, the powerful, magnificent person God intended for them to become. There is nothing like 'being real' to make you genuinely feel magnificent, powerful and lovable to the core..
Now it is your turn, leave a comment, tell me a little about yourself. Why you are here? What do you like about my blog? What do you want to change about yourself? Share with me as much or as little as you like. - Jonathan

I'm Angry. It's Unfair
If something isn't working for you, sometimes the only way to make it work for you is to curse it out of your system. This is akin to the process of a baby passing gas, only in a case like this, you are passing mental gas.
Here is an example, from my past, how I passed 'mental' gas.
I am angry because people don't recognize my genius. I am angry because I am not paid what I am worth. I am angry that my hard work goes unrecognized and unrewarded. It is unfair..
Now I could go on and on in the above example but I won't bore you to tears. I did however go on and on when I wrote the above 'venting rant' to myself.
I vented not to get anyone's pity or understanding how unfair I felt life was to me at that time. I did it as a way to release the 'mental gas' that was between me and what I wanted out of life..
You see, in accordance with the law of attraction, you can't attract what you want to yourself when you are feeling bad or when you are stuffing or supressing what is true for you. I resisted doing the 'venting rant' I shared with you in the above example for a long, long time because I thought I was better than that.
The problem was, by not expressing what I truly thought and felt, back at the time, I was stopping myself from attracting what I wanted which was money, recognition and appreciation. By ranting and releasing my anger about what I didn't have, I moved into a feeling good state of mind.
The feeling good state of mind allowed me to start attracting what I had been angry about in my past, the lack of money, recognition and appreciation. And the attraction of those things was natural and effortless
Regularly venting (telling your awful truth to yourself) is like giving yourself a mental laxative. You will feel so much better after you do...
As a result of feeling better, you will start attracting better things to yourself. It worked for me and there's a good chance that 'venting' will work for you too.

Not a Nice Guy, Not Any More...
The people in my life think I am one of the nicest people in the world. I am definitely not nice. Yes, on the outside I can act like the nicest person you ever met but on the inside I don't feel very nice. In fact, most of the time I feel bad. I feel bad because I have spent so much of my life pretending to be what my domineering, controlling parents wanted me to be, perfect in all ways.
The sad part is I didn't realized I had turned into what my parents wants me to be rather than what I wanted to be until thoughts of suicide entered my mind.. Thank God, I am way past 'suicidal thoughts' these days. In part, those thoughts left me because I am no longer pretending to myself. Yes, I am still pretending with people who know me but not with myself. I am very real with myself and if you read and follow this blog at all, you will find me being very real with you.
I am not the quiet, altogether person most people know me to be. I am a energetic, crazed, fun loving lunatic of a person. I am a person who is content to be me and have made up my mind to live the rest of my life alone rather than spend one more minute of my time trying to get people to like or approve of me. Screw them and the horse they rode in on... These days I am only interested in ATTRACTING people like me, real people who hate to pretend as much as I do..
I gotta tell you 'pretending ' hurts because you have to put a lot of energy into pretending rather than feeling comfortable enough to relax and be yourself...
(More later.....)
