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 |

“All you need to know is that the future is wide open and you are about to create it by what you do.” -Pema Chodron Too many people believe their current situation is beyond their control, failing to realize that their past actions and inaction greatly influenced where they find their Selves. And if their past choices created their present moment, then their current choices will create their future moments. How will your current choices make your future Self feel?

Suffering and pain come from attachment. This afternoon I arrived home after getting a haircut and stopping at the grocery store to find Silas outside shooting hoops alone in the driveway before his game later in the day. I smiled–my heart was full. Silas hasn’t been a lover of sports until recently, so finding him getting up some shots on his own was a very cool moment. My joy momentarily left me as I realized he was shooting with my brand-new basketball–a leather indoor basketball. I...
