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 |

“In indigenous ways of knowing, it is understood that each living being has a particular role to play. Every being is endowed with certain gifts, its own intelligence, its own spirit, its own story. Our stories tell us that the Creator gave these to us, as original instructions. The foundation of education is to discover that gift within us and learn to use it well.” - Robin Wall Kimmerer Thanks to The Leading Edge for putting this quote in front of me today–it may have to go into the copy on...
If what you are directing your energy towards is not aligned with your Authentic Life, redirect it towards things that are. Not only is it a waste of your energy, which isn’t infinite, but it will probably begin to weigh on you over time and begin to spill into other areas of your life. Use your energy as an extension of your Authentic Self, directing it as much as possible to things aligned with your Authentic Life. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
Earlier this week, I experienced my first energy mapping session, and it was really cool. I’ve begun to enjoy exploring these different tools that I probably definitely would have dismissed in the past–I have yet to experience one that hasn’t made sense to me where I was at that time. This particular session covered multiple relevant areas, but in particular, there was a lot of energy and conversation around “letting go” in simple terms. I’ve written about the importance and difficulty of...
