Stinkin- Thinkin

This subject is more common than we all realize . Every one of us knows someone who is struggling to find that piece of mind , part of happiness or who struggles with the daily torture of Stinkin Thinkin .
What is Stinkin Thinkin ? It is the art of negative thinking which destroys the actions and the results that any person wants to create . They only see problems , despair , disruption and FEAR . What is worse it is compounded by :
• financial despair ,
• debt ,
• lack of confidence
• with drawn attitude towards people and friends
• alcoholism to cover the pain
• Right down to suicide to remove the pain .
Beyond the Smile is my incentive to help Rural People and anyone else who is suffering or has suffered with this withdrawn attitude to productive thinking . For the last 2 years I have found a program which has helped me to discover my issues and change my life and start again a prosperous way of thinking and acting .
I dedicate this page to four deceased friends who never had the chance that I have had to help myself and the comments from one young boy have haunted me for years .
“ you were here for shearing , branding , pulling bores and fencing , every time we needed a hand you came , how come you didn ’ t help this time ?”
This boy ’ s father was my best mate . We shore together , worked on stock camps , played up at B & S and all this time he suffered from a depression he hid behind a smile . He ended his life and the answer to the question above has made me seek new ways to help anyone in the situation .
