Only Truth Can Guide Us

We all fear in life. It’s what we do when we feel fear that creates leaders and improves one’s probability of success.

Sometimes overcoming fear is simply admitting the truth to ourselves and others. I’ve seen barriers and walls crumble after admitting a truth.

I’ve had my own life circumstances change for the better after admitting the truth. Admitting I could or could not carry on with something or someone in my life.

It’s when I lie to myself and say things will be ok, things will get better, things will change, people will change, that I find myself down a path leading no where. It’s a lie. A lie to myself. A hope nontheless but still a lie.

It’s not until we admit it to ourselves and others that we can break free from what imprisons us. The truth shall set you free they say!

Even recently in my life I had a believe in my life about a person, and found that the exact opposite was true, but I didn’t find out the truth and they didn’t admit the truth until I took the first step to admitting how I felt. Admitting my truth, my real feelings empowered them to do the same.

How many times in my life have I had a false believe in my head assuming that someone thought one thing or felt something that was completely contraty to what they were actually feeling? How many times have I shot myself in the foot or walked away from someone or something because I believed the opposite of what was the truth?

Although inconvenient for the ego I now firmly believe that the truth is the only way forward.

Acting it out and committing to what it will ask from me, I believe, will be the future challenge.

Let the truth set us all free =)

Trust Your Entreprenuerial DNA

This is a great article about the law of attraction and works in our lives. There were five core beliefs of a good entrepreneur.

1) It’s never to late for a new beginning
2) Be real and gain trust
3) Take smart risks
4) Pay attention to serendipity
5) Take time to think

Release your self from your self limitations. Those thoughts in your head that say that I don’t know how, I can’t, I’m too old, I’m not smart enough, whatever your self imposed barrier is shrug it off. See life through I’ve accomplished it already mindset. Do this and everything seems to just fall in place

“Trust in faith, you don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step”
—– Martin Luther King Jr

I think making the jump, as I call it, the most freeing of all the human experiences. It means that you’ve finally taken responsibility to explode through the layer of impossibilities and inabilities that the secret societal storytellers of human history have glued across the eye of mans consciousness.

It’s a beautiful world every. Every moment off it. Engage yourself in your life. Let your truth set you free.

what do people think about teenage mums?

I got asked that question, so here was my reply.

Most childless older people have lived their life without kids while they watched friends and family have kids and the life that they led.

Many see it as a blessing to have children.

Many see life as a blessing.

With years of life comes experience and wisdom.

So some people think live the blessing of life, explore the world, get to really know yourself, fall in love with the world around you and then enjoy the blessing of children.

I guess some people think that once you have children, your own life will be buried under kids and other responsibilities.

It’s not that you won’t be a great mom, because all you need is love for that. Love will brings all you need to protect and provide for your child.

It’s that perhaps you were too young to evaluate some of the gifts life has to offer without child as well as with a child.

And perhaps it would be fair to give a child an entrance to the world through the eyes of a human being that has seen much, accomplished much and is now ready to pass on leanings that have taken decades of study and life work.

Hope it helps. Keep your head high, learn about yourself and the world around you and always look to relieve your offspring of the burden of not knowing about what the earth’s people can do.

Your life is but fleeting: like a grain of sand in the wind.

Do You Want To Know Who You Are?

Here is an interesting thought. We can very much be consumed with life. A life of work that, in a way, is not optimal, not a even a choice.

You worked a certain job because it was the only job you could get? Perhaps you got settled young and found dreams buried under family life and kids?

Now your free time consists of trying to tear away from the kids and family, dogs, job, and more just to get a breather of life?

Are you to blame?

If you can identify with those questions and then take a deep look at yourself and ask yourself are you truly to blame for where you are, then I think you may be surprised at what your answer is.

So why are we where we are? Why is not what we really want it to be?

Well, to understand that you must take a look at where your opinions come from. Where do your theories or ideas come from?

Are you proactive in your gain of knowledge or are do you take what information is given to you from the mass media of television and newspapers?

The internet has brought many things to the world and one of those is truth. Truth can now be found by those that actively search for it; found in pockets of world wide web in the form of bloggers, editors, and those reporting the truth in their findings of this world. May it be in Metaphysics or social engineering.

More than likely, your entire life, your opinions were given to you by your parents, teachers and media channels. How do you know what’s in fashion? Or what one government thinks of another? Or what is the latest bank scandal?

All I am saying is, the more you understand how much you don’t know, the more you can begin to know.

Actively pursue knowledge, knowledge of the world, and most importantly the knowledge of yourself. What makes you happy? Happy each day, each hour, each moment. Then pursue it for all that it has. Don’t let go it for even a second, hold happiness in the front of your mind constantly.

What is happiness, so that I may keep it at the front of my mind?

That’s a journey of every single being on this planet. You’ll know it once you see it. You must give chase to it as soon as you see it. Don’t think just cause you caught a glimpse of it, then it will return. No. No. No.

You must give chase to it or it will escape.

Let your instinct take over. Life is about the chase. That’s what we are designed for. Designed to chase and capture those things that we want.

Go get em!

Keeping Moving Forward

Today is a big day for me.

I move house and country. But most importantly it represents a new era in my life. An era of entrepreneurship.

I quit my job at IBM and have now several ideas that are starting to gain traction.

In order to keep them moving forward I had to make this choice.

A choice to focus my life on getting them off the ground.

Only three weeks ago, I had two cars, a 3 bed house (rented), 3 chickens and coop, 2 dogs ( dalmatian and Manchester terrier) and a finance.

Now. I will be renting a room from someone and will have a bag a clothes. Back to college days.

The good news is that my css web design skills have improved quite considerably and coupled with my online marketing skills and previous consulting experience I can test any many ideas.

So that’s it. Today I pack up all the great memories and will try to store them close by my consciousness.

I’ve moved 28 times in 29 years. It something I’m used to. I know that as long as I keep moving towards my ambitions and dreams that they will materialize. So here I go again.

Can you change a selfish person?

Is it even possible to change a selfish person?

Can they see the need to change outside their immediate wants?

Can they see that there is a benefit to giving?

We all know who these people are. In fact when we realise who they are, we seem to give them less. Simply because we know that they are selfish and are only serving their own best interest.

So how do we as a people of this world help others to see that there is much to gain from giving.

If you doubt that their is any benefit to giving then I challenge you to give your love freely to your family and friends and see if they don’t give you more love in return.

Give your time and energy to helping someone achieve their goal and see if they don’t smile, be thankful and look for ways to repay you…..without you having to ask for anything in return!!!!!

How do we do this practically? What structure do we put in place to help selfish people become giving people? because lets face it…….when we see these people in the world and in our life’s we don’t want to give to them……we don’t even really want to be around them……so how do we make a practical way of helping these people to learn?

Perhaps we have just have to catch them as a child……because then we have bargaining chips……staying up late, chocolate, etc……

but what bargaining chips do we have with adults? Especially adults that don’t want what you are trying to give!

Just a thought……….

I always welcome comments……I’d appreciate your thoughts…..please leave a thought.

How do you define who you are?

There are certain occasions or blessings in our life. They serve to define who we are. Sometimes we don’t have the courage to create who we want to be.

How many times have you thought why didn’t I say that, or why didn’t I do that?

How often have you done something that was completely opposite to what you believed in, all because you thought you had no choice in the matter?

They say that life is truly lived fully when you live on a higher level of consciousness, when you understand what the world is asking from you and you allow you moral compass guide you.

As part of this journey I have begun to make those hard choices.

The reason we don’t make the hard choices, the choices that will define who we are, is because we aren’t sure where it will take us.

I’m happy to try this path in my life. I can only it hope it takes me where I want to go. However, I do know, that living in my skin, I will be happy that I have made the choice to define who I am and be truthful to who I am. My life has been created. My personality. My path. I don’t have to worry because God has made me. Made me perfect for my mission. Knowing that. Knowing that God is one my side. I have nothing to fear.

Most of the greats that have come before us. Even those that are making it now face the same situation. People in the world, even family and friends will tell you that you’re mad trying to do what your doing. You live in a fantasy land they say. This is true. Those people that have stuck to what was in their hearts, whether the world thought was plausible or not, got to the that place other call “fantasy land”. The land of freedom. Freedom in the self!

I know the path of a job,  a career, a life of servitude, the mortgage, the family, the wish that there was more time: I see this path everyday with just about everyone I meet on daily basis. I don’t how the other path works. All I know is I am trusting it. And pleased with myself for having the courage to enter the unknown in search of fantasy land.

As always people, we only live once, we get one shot, act now, not tomorrow, not later today, ACT NOW!
