True Blessings

Most people do not recognise a true blessing because there is no money involved.

We live in a world today where money has become the benchmark for measuring everything. The person who has lots of it is highly respected and regarded by our society as the most successful above everybody else, even if he is a fool.

It is pushing everybody over the cliff to work hard and find money so he too can be recognised and respected. I guess the famous American psychologist, Abraham Masloc was right after all. Every human being has a burning desire inside him,   which is the need to want and command respect from everybody.
Because of this behaviour, we usually do not realise or appreciate the true blessings we have each day right before our eyes, until we lose it.
For some of you, your true blessing is the breadth of life you have right now giving to you by God each day. You have been in and out of the hospital over the past few years continuously. Battling some strange illness the doctors can't even find answers to yet.
But you are still alive today, yet you place your career above your life.
Why don't you thank God for life instead.

Some of you, your true blessing is in the good family support system you have that you don't see or value much. You have got a loving husband or wife that adores you like crazy, but you always measure his or her lovely dedication for weakness. You'll never find another person like him or her if you don't wise up fast and start being appreciative.  It could also be the unspoken love of your friend, mother, father, sister, brother, grandparents or even the love of your children.

We always have a choice between deciding what we want to stay committed and dedicated to. I just hope you don't let the love of money or your crazy ambition  over crowd your common sense to see that there are other important things that need your attention too.

Money, success, ambition, targets, aims and goals are really great to aspire to achieve or have them but it should not blind you to lose sight of the little blessings that are already in your life.

Let the lessons of this Corona virus and the quarantine period  humble you a little.

Your Competition

Just remember, your competition isn't other people Your competition is; Your procrastination to getting important things done Your ego, that makes you think you are above everyone else Your unhealthy eating habits and health choices The knowledge you neglect because you think you know it all or because you think others don't have an opinion on a matter because they are not intelligent The negative mindset and behaviour you're nurturing because because you think you are not worth something Your lack of Creativity. Failing to explore new ideas or try new things because you think you will fail or not succeed again. You're not in competition with anyone but yourself.

The  Inconvenient  Truth

We hate the truth so much today. We hate hearing about it and hate  it even more when it is coming from other people who we feel are not close to us. We are quick to swallow and lend our ears  to any lie that flatters us but find it hard, almost impossible to live with the truth because it may appear bitter to us. Meanwhile, it would have been much better for us and our lives to live knowing the truth and painfully taking the long path to do the right thing than to take a shortcut or a detour of many deadly pleasures just to do wrong. No matter how hard or  harsh, it may sound for you to hear the truth or receive it, if it is going to put your life in the right direction, please listen and listen good. Stay away from people who will hail you at every turn, people who find everything and anything you do to be nothing but good. Because none is perfect, we all have our good and bad sides. It is impossible for you to always have a good side all the time even if you fake i...

Change Your Words Change Your Life

Our brain while listening to words uses two separate areas to identify the mood and the real meaning of the words. Words are passed to the left temporal lobe of the brain for processing, and intonation is channelled to the right side of the brain, a region more stimulated by music. Do not speak negatively about yourself, not even as a joke. You know why?? Because your brain and body doesn't know the difference. Words have energy and they cast spells on your body. Change the way you speak to yourself, change the way you speak about your life. What you are not changing in your life with positivity, you are actually choosing it to remain the same. How do you change negative words?? *Speak to Yourself* It directly influences how you experience things in life. Our words play an important part in shaping our existence, so if your internal self-talk is negative, your external experiences will most likely be negative as well. *Start with a small shift* Replace just one word th...
