Month: December 2013

Merry Christmas! As I sit here and reflect in a quiet house because the kids are at their mothers I am once again reminded that TRUE Happiness comes from with in. It can be easy to get sad when you are alone especially during the Holidays but when you are at peace in your heart and at peace with your creator you KNOW that you are loved. Having something to look forward to also makes it easier, for example I will be picking up the kids later and going to my parents for Christmas dinner but for life in general we have to have something to look forward to. A few things that I have learned over the years to get through tough times and find inner peace and Happiness is to know with out a shadow of doubt and unwavering faith that I am loved by my creator, family and friends, despite how things my APPEAR at times and I stick to this belief because I know it to be fact. As for having something to look forward to I have learned that we can have, do and be anything that we set our minds to. The Bible says ask and ye shall receive, he that knocketh the door will be opened. Now we all know that it is not always that simple but when you do things for the betterment of others, maintain a clear focus of your goal/dream and remember to LIVE in the moment and enjoy the journey, the process becomes so much easier. Everything starts with a thought so DREAM big and take massive action. Anything worth doing is worth doing badly, meaning that if it is action towards your dream don’t wait until you are perfect or for the perfect moment just get moving. Find an accountability partner a mentor, study, learn and take action every day towards your dreams whether it is the perfect soul mate, improving your current relationship, making money, raising your kids, getting healthy because it is up to you to make it happen. Here is a little quote for you “If it is going to be, it is up to me”. And remember that the reaching of one goal is just the beginning of the next one, when you stop growing you start dying so keep growing as a person and striving to be better than you were yesterday and in return you will make those around you better and this is how we make the world a better place one person at a time starting with ourselves. I wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS an Very Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year.

Yes! It is your fault.

 

How often do you blame your situations and circumstances on other people, things or places? I have adopted the philosophy that I am accountable for absolutely everything that happens to me, both good and bad. Yes, that means take credit for the good things, that also means take credit for the bad things even when it is obvious it was not your fault. Now I am talking about taking blame for a car accident when some one rear ends you but do take responsibility for the fact that you were there in that moment in time that put you in place to be hit. Let me explain why, this is not about whose fault it is a bout moving forward and how can you move forward and have control if you are giving the control to other people and circumstances? This is about you looking deeper in to yourself to see how you can make things better because or you could have done things differently for future reference. We both know that just sitting around waiting for answers or for some else to fix the problem is just very unlikely.

 

Try it for a week, take full and absolute responsibility for everything that happens to you. Some things will seem a little absurd at first but you will be surprised at how liberating it is and how empowered you will feel. You will start to see solutions to problems that you never thought possible because you have now taken ownership of them and become responsible for the solutions.

 

I often like to refer to the Serenity prayer – “God grant me the Serenity to accept the things that I can not control; the courage to change the things that I can and the wisdom to know the difference. Of course in life there will be things that we cannot change that were not our fault and just random act of the Universe, this is when we ask for the strength to move on and power through. Release the idea that God is dictating your life (ask ye shall receive) you have heard the phrase “be careful what you ask for”? God is and always will be on your side, we are our own worse enemies so start taking a closer look at your thoughts and wishes. People that think marriage sucks have bad marriages and people that think marriage is great have great marriages. You can have 2 people working at the same place and one thinks it sucks and the other thinks it’s a great place to work and this is because of what YOU bring to it with your thoughts and attitude. I use to not like the phrase “things happen for a reason” then I realized that it is true and the reason is YOU! Some things are random but most things that happen to YOU are brought on by YOU. It is up to us to find the positive lesson from the things that happen to us.

Are you a Hypocrite?

 hyp·o·crite

noun \ˈhi-pə-ˌkrit\

: a person who claims or pretends to have certain beliefs about what is right but who behaves in a way that disagrees with those beliefs

 

I would be so bold that most if not all of us have been hypocritical at some point or another in our lives. Some of know that we are hypocrites and some just don’t even realize it. I find it funny that my 14 year old daughter openly admits that she is a hypocrite.

 

Now I am not necessarily talking about being a hypocrite in a negative way as I always try to find the positive in everything. I was once a hypocrite on many fronts for many years and I used that as fuel to make a change. I was once a smoker, I only smoked about a pack a week never around the kids or in the house and I did not take breaks at work to smoke but none the less I smoked and did so for many years. The bad part is that I used the fact that I didn’t smoke a lot to be hypocritical of those that did smoke more. The good news is that I quit cold turkey. I was also hypocritical of those whom were over weight just because I worked out and carry my weight well I was still over weight (FAT) up to 275 at one point in my life and my I ideal BMI is 195. I am happy to say that I am now down to 205 pounds and feeling great.

 

Ok, great Ron you quit smoking, lost weight, stopped drinking blah blah blah but what does this mean to me, well my friend it simply means that you to can change. Starting today every time you start to talk about or criticize some one I want you to take a look at your self and see if there is some thing that you can improve in your life. Use this as fuel to make yourself and your life better, this is a simply way to give us the reminder to help us to focus on ourselves instead of others. It takes a lot of discipline, motivation help and encouragement to make change even though we know that we need it. Enjoy and embrace the journey, we are not perfect creatures but part of our purpose in life is to get better each and every day as we lead by example to help others to do the same.

Is it time for change? Of course it is, we should always be challenging ourselves and changing for the better. If we continue to do what we have always done we will continue to get what we have always gotten. Change can be as simple as changing how we put on our shoes in the morning, or where we sit at the table at dinner time so go ahead and get a different perspective on life just be making small changes. Many species have evolved over the years with small changes for the purpose of increasing the chance of survival and the quality of life; I can certainly relate, can you? Go ahead use your imagination and try a pattern interrupt and see what happens.
