How sad that we often diminish our best gifts

By struggling valiantly to develop in someone else area of ability. It is better to focus on your uniqueness and do that with excellence than to end up with mediocrity in several areas.

Use this rule of thumb for organizing your work strategy:

Work where you are the strongest 80 percent of the time.

Work where you are learning 15 percent of the time.

Work where you are weak 5 percent of the time.

Here is a thought for you to ponder on Discipline at a higher level:

“Rules should arise out of your understanding. They should not be imposed from the outside. Discipline should not be slavery. All true discipline is self-discipline and self-discipline is never against freedom. Only disciplined people become free, but their discipline is not obedience to others: their discipline is obedience to their own voice.”

Now that you have made the decision to be married, take the initiative to arrange for pre-marital counseling.

Most people think that the dynamics or a good marriage depend on some magical blend of the “right” people and that all you need is love. NOT! Both individuals must be open to attending these sessions. You will be asked to complete a pre-marital profile, which will address key topics including such as:

  • Sound beginnings & expectations
  • Communication
  • Sharing feelings
  • Personality/relating style

Movement of Power

When we think as a victim – we think something is happening to me

When we speak of transformation  by renewing the mind

We speak of the instantaneous or gradual process of consciously changing thought patterns until the subconscious surrenders its old pattern for the new. Changing subjective thought patterns by supplying spiritual ideas will create new conditions in body and affairs and this is what we all seek. All the theory in the world is useless unless we know how to apply it and make a change.

The basic principles for practical application of changing are:

1. Continued willingness to let go of the past

2. Controlling what we think about all day

3. Learning how forgiveness of self and others releases us from the past and brings about physical healing

The question is……

Where and how do we begin to create an environment that cultivates evolutionary support and partnership?

Begin by asking yourself these important questions: –

1. Of everyone I know with whom can I really be my highest self?

2. Among my friends, family and colleagues, who truly shares my deepest values and highest spiritual aspirations?

3. Do I have any social structures in my life in which I feel free to stretch myself and my relationships beyond my comfort zones? To reach into new territory without being concerned that I’ll rock the boat or scare others off in my efforts to awaken and evolve?

“Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment.” ~ Lao Tzu

How well do you know yourself, I mean really know yourself? The first essential aspect of living a more authentic life is to know who we truly are at the deepest level. Some of us may be more aware of ourselves than others. Knowing ourselves, like being authentic itself, is a life long process. The more intentional we are about this, the more we can grow and evolve.

Given our depth, complexity and constant evolution as human beings, it’s not possible for us to get to a point in life at which we know everything about ourselves. However the majority of us stay pretty unconscious and unaware of ourselves for much of our lives – which often causes a great deal of confusion and suffering for us and those around us. Our goal, therefore, is to continue to discover more and more about who we really are as we go through our journey.
