Missiles or gifts?

“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”— Mother Teresa

“Handle them carefully, for words have more power than atom bombs.” — Pearl Strachan Hurd

Your words are either missiles or gifts. 

Choose wisely.

We all have five boxes in our psychological house. They are the intellectual, emotional, spiritual, physical and financial.

I am not certain if along our educational trek we were taught anything about compartmentalization.

I know that I wasn’t until much later in life. However, learning this is extremely valuable as we begin to create dialogue with others along our journey. When we react instead of responding intelligently, we arouse feelings that stir up missiles instead of gifts.

The words that we choose determines the outcome good, bad or indifferent.
Sometimes, all it takes is taking a deep breath and pausing in order for our present moment thought to make it to the finish line at our frontal cortex where rational thought takes place.

We’ve all been there and this is far from easy at times. There are always individuals that have to prove that they are right no matter what. Basically, it’s not about who’s right or wrong but rather at times agreeing to disagree.

Sometimes, we just have to walk away from the situation until emotional missiles have subsided.

The words that we use with our spouse, significant other, coworker, employer etc. can either propel us forward or remain stuck. It’s a personal decision and no one can decide except the person that is front and center in the scenario.

I remember an instance where a young person was being rude and impolite at a community event but later stepped up to the individual in question and apologized.
I said, “It takes a big person to step up and apologize. I’m proud of you.”

In another situation, I met someone that was really artistically talented and mentioned that her real talent was buried much deeper in her core. I said, “You are incredibly talented, bright and creative, so dig deep in your talent bag and retrieve what you can really do.”

The next time that I saw her she was so proud to show me her most recent sketches. They were amazing beyond words.

We don’t live in a perfect world and none of us are perfect however we are all continually evolving as caring and nurturing doing beings.

Yes!

We are doing beings that want to create a better life for our young people. What we do and say in their midst begins to create a social paradigm for them.

Let’s collectively try to choose our words more carefully so we are able to impart a legacy worth leaving.

Carpe momentum.

All the best as the best is yet to come.

Believe that you can

“Your belief determines your action and your action determines your results. But first, you have to believe.” – Mark Victor Hansen

“To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.” – Anatole France

Get rid of the naysayers & believe that you can do it.  If you are not strong, confident, and inspired by a burning desire, you will pack up your suitcase at the very first obstacle.

Some people have a suitcase on the ready in the event they have to use their escape hatch.

Be a sentry of persistence, resilience, tenacity and everything else that you can muster.

Challenges are everywhere however these challenges allow us to move  forward towards opportunities that might have never appeared.

You are intelligent, creative and  have the innate ability to press onward in spite of any difficulties. It's so easy to pack up our suitcase when obstacles show up in our face.

As you embark on your personal journey, abandon the need for approval from anyone.

The odds of anyone showing up on the planet are four hundred trillion to one.

You’re perfect just the way you are right now and you are in a process of a wonderful enfoldment according to God’s divine plan. You are special, unique and are a member of the DNA exclusivity club.

The doubters, the naysayers and everyone else that resides in that negative camp will never have the stamina, persistence and determination to press forward.

You do as you are taking your precious time to read and continue to empower yourself.

Release the naysayers to the universe, as they are piranhas.

Be aware as other piranhas that are not so easily identifiable lurk in the background. These show up in your thought life, conscious and subconscious. With discipline, you can easily master the conscious ones but the subconscious ones require more deliberate and determined effort.

Continue to build your awareness daily in order to shore up the treasures in the vault of your glorious mind.

Stay in the game and believe that you can.

Carpe momentum.

Know yourself

“You’ve got to know yourself so you can at last be yourself.” – D. H. Lawrence

“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” - Aristotle 

The more that you get to know yourself and what causes you to behave 24/7, the more incredible results begin to show up right on time and right on schedule.

Know yourself was inscribed on the Temple of Apollo at Delphi in Greece approximately 2,600 years ago.

These two words still resonate today with the word results in 2024.

Getting to know yourself is a lifelong quest towards self-awareness and understanding one’s own nature. This is a work in progress towards achieving an individual’s goals and aspirations.
Continually hone this recipe 24/7 and 86,400 seconds of each glorious day.

Thoughts = Feelings = Actions = Results

If we are not aware of our conscious thoughts, the subconscious ones will always create havoc in our lives.

I call it the X factor.

All your efforts to move forward will be in vain as the controller has a history of controlling you. It basically has you in a jail cell and it has the only key.

The X factor paradigm will do anything to continue to control you and your desired results. 

Don’t believe it? 

Just look at our global results.

Bob Proctor explained it in this manner.

“Understand this. X cannot be trusted. Your X factor remembers and reminds you. It’s devious. It’s insidious how devious it is. It will take any path. It has no rules. It will win at any cost. It does not want your Y factor to win. It does not want you to take over. For every failure, for every settling, for everything that’s rote in your life, that’s just not what you hoped it would be, that’s your X factor paradigm assuring you that status quo is the way to go. But who wants status quo?” – Bob Proctor

I don’t know where you are on this amazing planet  but if you get the latter, you are well on your way towards amazing results. 

Carpe momentum.
