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 |

Living your Authentic Life requires you to be optimistic. The energy associated with pessimism will never vibrate at a frequency as high as your Authentic Life. Currently, there is an abundance of pessimism in the world. And while it’s understandable why pessimism persists, it keeps those who default to it unhappy and prevents them from living their Authentic Life. Optimism doesn’t mean ignoring the injustices in the world. Optimism doesn’t mean that you don’t get upset or sad at times....
“If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.” -Bruce Lee See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
I hope you had a great couple of weeks! Last week, I was in Sarasota with Roman, four of his friends, and their fathers for a father-son spring break. It was a great time, despite not spending as much time as I would have liked writing. Going down, I anticipated taking the boys to Siesta Key, dropping them off at the beach, and posting up at a coffee shop and doing a lot of writing and creating. That plan changed when we rented e-bikes for the boys, but that was ok. I got to spend some...
