I'm on a mission to help more people find and live their authentic life. Check out my Daily Notes where I write a short note each day about the connection of spirit, mind, body and money on the Pursuit of your authentic life.
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 |

“Your own self-realization is the greatest service you can render the world.” -Ramana Maharshi I spoke about this on a new episode of AlignedLife recorded just yesterday, and I can't wait to share it with you. I have this belief that if we all were able to live our Authentic Lives, the world would become a perfect place–heaven on earth. I know that is not possible for several reasons, but that doesn’t mean we, on an individual level, can’t strive to do our part to move the world one person...
I was inspired by Chris Williamson’s Christmas episode of Modern Wisdom, where he and a few friends share their favorite “hacks” from the year. While I was listening, I started making my own list in my head, then decided to write it out and even record a video, hoping to put you on to at least one new company or idea for the new year. Apple Podcasts Spotify None of these recommendations are sponsored by the companies–I’m not “big” enough to have sponsorships, lol. I’m making these...
