we are born with the freedom to choose our thoughts
|
“Each of us is born with the freedom to choose the thoughts that will direct our lives. We choose the path we want to walk down. We have the power to choose what we wish to carry along the way. With that in mind, it would seem to make good sense to choose thoughts that will form positive attitudes and that stress our unlimited potential. Negative thoughts and attitudes weigh us down; they make our journey through life so much more difficult. Every thought we allow into our mind affects the thoughts, feelings, and actions we express. If we hold negative thoughts, our actions are going to be negative, and, in turn, negative results will be returned to us. However, positive thoughts return positive results and life becomes a happy, motivating adventure in which we see ourselves and all others in the true light of what we really are. We suddenly see that each of us is a wonderful, magical, mysterious expression of life. As long as our thoughts remain positive and are grounded in accomplishing the goal in front of us, the progress we make on the path of life will be steady and rewarding.”
- Sir John Templeton, Discovering The Laws of Life (Week 33, Law D)
I hope you choose to continue down the path of positivity, opportunity, and abundance---regardless of outcomes. I’ve said this before, but Templeton was writing about the importance of spirit, mind, body, and money a long time ago—it’s still a mystery to me why no one in finance references his work, his writing never turned up outside of my reading in finance, and that I happened to stumble upon his writings on the Laws of Life. I love reading his work because it gives me more confidence I'm on to something important and meaningful. JC |

How well do you understand your relationship with money? Money is probably something that you think about often, but at the same time don’t REALLY think about. What I mean is that you probably think about day-to-day spending, maybe your savings and investing, and most certainly whether you feel you have enough. And those things are important to consider, but your relationship with money is even more important to understand. The relationship you have and the stories you tell your Self about...
“Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart.” - Roy T. Bennett Notice how our fears live in the mind and our dreams live in our heart, at least according to Bennett. This is because the heart is your connection to your Creator, and it is through our heart—through our passions—that we are guided towards our Authentic Life. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
Yesterday’s missed Note was not intentional. I was reminded of just how reliant we are on technology, specifically the internet. We were without internet for most of the day, which kept me from doing much of the work I needed to, including writing a Daily Note. Once our service came back, I prioritized a new show on the AlignedLife podcast that I was really excited to get out yesterday—I needed to download, edit, upload, write copy, and post the episode on my website; it’s a lot of work...
