Day Four - Oh Be Wise

With all of our getting of understanding and learning, how many of us are in control of what we do and how many of us feel no matter how hard we try, we can't "seem" to do those thing we know to be right? Everyone has weaknesses... this is normal, so don't feel down about it. Sure, you should feel bad, because these kind of feelings are there to help you correct the mistakes you make. It is normal to mess up, to trip, to fall down, get tired, etc. When we do, we feel bad and have the tendency to get mad at ourselves. Well, even this could be our weakness... getting mad at ourselves and living in regret, but you don't have to feel this way. Remember, ALL of us make mistakes and have the "temptation" to feel like failures, but the only time you can really fail is to die not trying. Life is all about progressing not winning the race, getting up each time we fall. Again, opposition in all things helps us grow. Sometimes we are given burdens to bear and it is up to us to look at the burden as a blessing to help us grow or wine about it.

We may not always understand the "why". To me, not understanding the why may be part of the burden itself. Again, just another opportunity to grow. I can't help but want to say, there is more to life than just living and dying. We can all know for ourselves whether this is true or not by how our actions make us feel. Do you feel like you are growing as you "repent" of a mistake, trying again with renewed hope, feeling bad for past mistakes, trying to make better what we did wrong to the best of our ability? If you are not sure what I mean, give it a try. Attempt to "repent" and make better what you did wrong and see how it makes you feel. How does it make you feel when you accomplish something hard that you set out to do? Have you ever set out to accomplish something? We can all be achievers in life, accomplishing things makes us feel more complete, messing up on something humbles us and should tell us what we need to work on, overcome, and/or improve. We are all people, the CEO you work for isn't really much different then you. We can all accomplish great things.

With this said, let us be wise with what we learn each and every day. Take what you learn and put put into practice what we feel makes us and those around us happy.

Day Three - Muscle (cont)

I'm sure you are all aware of the things that you can do in a day that are productive or waste time. Usually the things that are most productive are the things that are harder to do. It is easy to sit down, play games, watch TV/movies, etc. It is a lot more difficult to do service, educate yourself, work, raise kids, etc. I'm sure we can all agree that being productive is the correct choice with an occasional break (not longer then what is needful). I'm sure each of us can honestly feel when we have rested for too long.

Each time we choose to follow the tougher decision, we develop higher self worth (empowerment) and greater strength (just like muscle). In summary, we may be able to get by without working at the physical/mental/spiritual gym, but our abilities will be limited. Lets not sit idly, letting life happen. Lets improve our skills and self worth. Lets make a positive difference, unlocking our full potential, becoming what we are meant to become. Heroes!

The more talents you develop (less time you spend idling away time) the more "super powers" you'll develop, becoming more powerful/influential to those around you!

Day Two - Muscle

Do this, do that, don't do this, don't do that. I'm sure you've encounter these type of statements multiple times a day whether you are conscious of them or not. Whether someone verbally commands or ask you or whether they just happen to pop into your head. In the end, you do it or you do not.

Now, after you have taken action, the decision will instantly or gradually result with a powerful affect or it may have felt or may feel there was no affect at all. We all make decisions based upon what we know, how much time we have, and what we have hope in. We may not want to exercise, but some decide to do it anyways because of what they know (benefits vs cons). We may want to play, but some decide not to because of time constraints. We may want to eat out because of this or that, we may want to stay home and eat because of this or that. Maybe we are given a condition that more forcefully makes us do or not do something. In the end, a decision is made.

Decisions that are made where we are in complete control will weaken or strengthen us in a positive or negative direction. Every decision has it's opposite. Light and darkness, joy and pain, happiness and misery, hot and cold, etc. When we make a decision and we honestly feel it is the correct decision, it will build self worth. Symbolically speaking, lifting weights, in spite of the pain and soreness, when the tissue repairs itself though proper nourishment and rest, we gain strength. Can you imagine the empowerment strong people feel? The extra freedom they have to do physical things that others may not be able to do?

Decisions that are made where the decision is basically made for you or in other words, you didn't have any say in the matter, I'll save this topic for another time to discuss.

I'm not done with the current topic of "Muscle", but I'm out of time today.

Day One - Purpose

DISCLAMER: I'm not responsible for your actions, for better or worse, but I hope it’s for the better. Please make note that the links found among this content are NOT those annoying advertisements they will just link you to the definition of the word highlighted. When you click on them, they open in a new tab so you don't have to worry about losing your place (where you are reading). Enjoy!

Technology has presented itself, why not use it? I'd like to put you on a virtual journey via these words. Try to understand them the best you can. I like to write symbolically.

Words can have a powerful effect on each of us for better or worse. If you don't understand something, ask questions and I'll try to improve the content so it is easier to understand. I promise to do my best so that these words have a positive effect in the lives of those willing to read them. Thank you for taking the time to read.

Now, to start out... there is power within every individual... and yes, that means you too! I'm not sure if you are already awake, symbolically speaking but in a sense, I hope when you read these words, if you are asleep, the words will awaken you to some degree if possible. Where there's a will there's a way someone once said. We all have the potential to dream and think big for better or for worse. Hopefully for the better for all mankind. We are all a part of the same planet and share a common goal. Overcome weaknesses, make progress and feel the happiness of accomplishment.

As you read on, I hope you will begin to feel the power that is within yourself, that the human being has great value, more value than anything can buy. Our lives aren't to be wasted, but accomplish and achieve. Whether you believe these words or not. Experiment with them, plant them in your heart like you would do a seed in the ground. If the seed is good, it will grow and you will feel this growth. If it begins to grow, it must be that the seed is good and you should continue to nurture it and strengthen it that it may bring you fruit. If what I say fills you with hope, joy, peace, everlasting happiness and power, read on!
