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 |

Last night we watched John Cena’s last WWE match, and like everyone in the stadium or watching at home, we were in shock as we watched Cena tap out while being held in a sleeper hold. The legend whose motto is “Never Give Up” appeared to give up–and in the initial moments of the tapout, I missed the poetic ending of John Cena’s career. But the truth is, he didn’t give up. If you haven’t seen the ending, as he lay in the ring with his opponent’s arms wrapped around him, trying to put him to...
Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to travel to Baltimore to lead a conversation with an outstanding group of men about aligning finances with their Authentic Lives. I was encouraged by many things, but one thing that stood out to me was that most of the men had decided to define success for themselves rather than chase it as others defined it. Then I listened to a podcast for financial advisors this morning where my friend Khe Hy was a guest. He discussed with the host, another friend...
