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 |

“Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?” - Mary Oliver Are you just going through the motions, or are you really living life? And by living life, I mean living life that leaves you fulfilled, joyful, and full of purpose? Or are you just existing?

Complexity sells. There is no shortage of complex systems to help you achieve any goal you may have. It seems the more complex, the more sophisticated, the more expensive. I’m not convinced the results are any better than a simple approach based on fundamentals we all know exist. Want to change your body composition? Probably just need to track what you’re eating, lift weights, walk more, and sleep better. Want to improve your financial picture? Probably need to review cash flow, identify...
Time. Energy. Money. These are three currencies in life. Money is the most obvious. Time and energy might be more valuable and even more scarce. Are you aware of how you’re spending your time and energy? Is it aligned with your Authentic Life? See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
