Halloween and The Holiday Season for Photographers

These are the times that try our souls. The Holiday Season.


Photographers are busy getting the Halloween photos of the goblins and ghouls prepared for the proud moms and dads, deciding on their Christmas card promotions, identifying their "drop dead deadlines" for the Christmas market and trying to prepare for the January and February "Dead Zone".


Some of us are busy as well with charity work and financial planning.


So there is no time left. None. Zero.


Here is my advice. Say aloud, "Thank You".


WHAT?!? Thank you for what? To who? For what possible reason?


There is a law of the universe, called the "Law of Attraction", which works whether you know it or not.


The thing that you concentrate on the most is what you attract to yourself. It always works - but here is where "Thank You" comes in.


When you give thanks, you are concentrating on your blessings, not your troubles. Concentrating on THEM, attracts MORE blessings, more business, more money, more love and more fulfillment.


Concentrating on that darned bill, the mountain of debt you have and the cool reception you got at home last night, yep, you guessed it, brings to you MORE of exactly what you are concentrating on. Think instead, on what makes you happy, and what makes you fulfilled as a person and as a professional.


I, for one, have been thankful for being busy, and I am, truly, busier than I have ever been. 


So as we approach Thanksgiving, what are YOU thankful for? Think on it. Dwell on it. Say aloud, "Thank You" for those blessings. 


Let the law work for you!
