Decisions



Hello Readers,

Have you ever had to make a very important decision and you knew the answer but it was not what you wanted to do? I had to recently make this type of decision. I knew it was the right thing to do but my emotions wanted something else. I knew if I followed my "emotions" the outcome would not be what I wanted. Here are 5 tips I learned in the process of making this decision and many others in my life:

1. Take your time. Do not rush the process. 
2. Check your emotions and feelings at the door. Most of the time they are not real and they often lead to the wrong decision. Be of a sound mind.
3. That thing called your "gut", trust it. It is that deep feeling you have when you know you are right. It is called intuition.
4. Seek peace. If you have peace about the decision, then you are okay to proceed.
5. Always and I mean always seek wise counsel. No one does anything alone. 

These tips I shared do not mean I get it right each time, we all make mistakes right? I am sharing what I learned in hopes it will help others and that is a good decision.

Excellence vs Perfection



Hello Readers,

Excellence is defined as the point of a person or thing excelling in a particular area. Excellence means putting in your 100% effort and knowing you have done your best. Excellence does not mean perfection. Perfection by definition means without any flaws. I am not sure about you but I do not know anyone who does anything to perfection. Any process of anything can always be improved. If perfection was the end goal then we would not need innovation. Something can be done with excellence and not be perfect. Remember excellence is in the eye of the beholder, therefore what you put your 100% effort into will show in the long run. Most people are looking for effort and excellence not perfection. Think about it.

Attraction




Have you heard of people winning the lottery and within 3 years (as statistics say) lost it all? There is a cause to this problem and it is called the Law of Attraction. The law itself has nothing to do with how much money you make or the car you drive. Let me explain. The reason a person can win millions and lose it all is because of their daily activities. Let’s say person “A” who has not won the lottery focuses on paying off their bills and saving little by little on a daily basis, this daily thought process will enter the subconscious mind and the subconscious mind will take it as a task and start to steer the person in the direction of which choices they should make, hence attracting what it will take to pay off the bills and save with small steps over time. However, person “B” who won the lottery may have the same thought process but, the kicker is what they were focusing on before they won the money? What were their daily activities? Were they focusing their dreams in small steps or one lump sum (since they bought a lottery ticket)? Whatever thoughts/activities they were dwelling on will eventually creep back to the surface such as bigger house, give to family and friends, a nicer car, ect. Remember the difference is person “B” was not doing anything to achieve these items before the winnings and person “A” was. Once these thoughts have come to the surface the subconscious mind will work in overtime because the fact of the lottery winnings being present will speed the process up, resulting in  the money being spent in 3 years or less. The money did not change them; it just revealed who they really are. Person “A” followed the small steps rule and as you can see person “B” did not. Both examples attracted into their lives what they were already living. Winning the money either helped or didn’t. I have nothing against playing the lottery that is not the message here. The lesson to learn here is, you will  attract what you think about and what you think about is who you really are and it will come out sooner or later, so focus on the positive, good, and great because that is what we all should be aiming to be. Remember, who you attract represents who you really are.

Response




 
Sooo, in reference to last night’s Super Bowl. Yes it was a good game and yes it left many of us with our mouths on the floor. However, people will not only remember the bad call but, they will remember the response. The response one gives is what carries the character and integrity of the person. People will more than likely forget what initiated the rumble on field but, they will not forget the rumble. We all have areas of growth and we all get our feathers ruffled from time to time. Here is what I have learned: walk away or simply do not respond. It is amazing the amount of peace that comes over you when you ignore something that is not worthy of your time. Remember if the situation will not bring positive impact to your life, then the situation may not be worthy of a response. Think about it.
