My Message




Is My life affected by my circumstances or do I build on my dream





I have a friend who spent several years in prison. When he was released he made a comment to me that everyone he seen after his release was a lot happier. What he came to realise was that he was the one who was happier. Because he was happier he spread this where ever he went. You see he had made some decisions for his life and these decisions were not based on his circumstances but on what was important to him. So when something went wrong it did not alter his happiness. His focus was on where his life was going and not on what went wrong. He would count his blessings and name them. It is like the saying – two prisoners looked out the window – one saw stars and one saw bars. It is important to take in to build up our lives – it is also important to give out, this also builds up our lives. We learn as much from giving of ourselves as we do from taking in.



What we speak with our tongue needs to be guarded.



So when we lift others up we also do the same for ourselves. People who achieve in their lives are always aware to do this. Encourage another and build a friendship. You have someone who then has your interest at heart. They want you to prosper. Working together brings an added strength we would not other wise have. It is like a rope with 2 strands or 3 strands – the more the stronger – the more load it will carry – the less the load is on each strand. Building positive relationships is a wonderful way to live. For example - it is better to have a friend than a title. A title is a function – a friendship is life. Life is best fulfilled when you learn to give away. What is your message? Is your tongue speaking things that are wise – do you use your tongue to build people up? What you speak out you will receive in return. Voice out negative words and that is what will have most effect on your life. Speak positive truthful words towards others and be amazed at the return you will receive.

Objectivity – Changing Habits

The nature of the entrepreneur will put you in unprecedented situations constantly Past experiences; - most of the decisions we make on a daily basis are based upon our previous experiences. The reactive observation, “That looks off - I was hurt once - don’t touch it.” This is really a rather simplistic decision to a situation. The idea of understanding, evaluating and deciding our decision making process, is quite possibly one of the most effective, yet difficult things to do. We are always being confronted with decisions, both big and small. These decisions usually carry with them some sort of emotional process that is important to us as individuals and are like an emotional compass that helps our decision process. We need to cultivate a discipline for making good decisions that seem contrary to our emotions or our initial thoughts based on past experience and feelings. Sometimes though, I find myself so far out of my comfort zone that I don’t know what to do and with no prior experi...

BELIEFS

If we want to understand what we believe we need only to look at what we are involved in. I know that amongst successful business people they talk about things like leadership, innovation, persistence and longevity. I know that all of these are important and I feel and speak passionately about these things often. How ever to achieve in any of these areas it is our beliefs that will set our values and our character will be the example of theses. We all believe something – what we believe is important to success. Belief is not a gift – it is learned from others – it is something we can teach others. We can give someone a dollar, but it soon will be spent and be in the pocket of another. Teach someone something valuable they can believe and they set a value they can use to reproduce that dollar. We can give presents, compliments, advice and embrace one another in moments of despair. But to teach another a right belief is a commodity for which time passed, or circumstance can never take aw...
