Have a Magnificent Day!

This is a very important moment in your life.  This is the time when you can choose to make a decision and a commitment for the best possible life you can have.  No matter what has happened in your life up until now, it makes no difference.  The past does not equal the present and now you have the choice and ability to start fresh right now and make a commitment that will change your life forever.

Anyone who has ever succeeded in any area of life has made a commitment and kept it consistently.  They have a strong belief in the power of commitment.  Look at anyone who has succeeded in life and you will find they have the strongest commitment.  They are ‘all in.’  Nothing will stop them from moving forward and completing their commitment to themselves and others.  Commitment is power.

The following passage by W. H. Murray with the Scottish Himalayan Expedition is one of the most powerful definitions of commitment.  You can read this passage every day and build and strengthen your commitment.

The passage by Goethe is incredible and states that the present is the greatest point of power and that you can do anything now.  Begin it!

‘Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back,
always ineffectiveness (and creation) there is one elementary truth,
the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans:
That the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred.
A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man
could have dreamed would have come his way.’

I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe’s couplets:

‘Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. 
Begin it now.’

                                                W.H. Murray

It is so important that we make a commitment to grow and thrive in all areas of our lives. 

Life is a process of continual change and growth as we expand and unfold into our divine potential.

‘He is the cleverest, who finds God,
He is the cleverest, who gives the time to find God,
He is the cleverest, who finds that supreme happiness within,
You can stand unshaken amidst the crash of breaking worlds,
He’s whose peace, the riches of peace, cannot be taken away
by all the robbers of circumstances and trial.’

Albert Einstein is considered to be one of the most brilliant geniuses who discovered many powerful truths in life.  With all of his life experience he came to the conclusion that it was so important to keep learning and asking questions, that imagination is more important than knowledge.

Scientists have discovered that we use about 4% of our brains, so that means we do not use 96% of our brains.  We know what we know, and we do not know a lot more than we know.  So it make sense for us to live our lives from the place of asking questions and discovering how life works and being open to what we do not know instead of acting or thinking like we know it all or how it is.  Don’t you agree?

There is a concept called Beginner’s Mind.  Beginner’s Mind refers to being open to learning about life.  What would happen if you approached life every day, every moment with honesty, openness and willingness to learn and discover?

The mind is like a parachute, it works best when it is open.

Here is a wise approach to life.  Be an anthropologist.  Study successful people, spend time with successful people.  Discover what their values are, their level of energy and commitment.  What do they do and how do they do it?  What is their mindset, their belief systems and their values?  How do they dress, speak and present themselves?  What is their recipe/strategy for success?

Are you a student of success, because to become a Master or Teacher, you have to be a good student first?  Study how life works on this planet.  Isn’t this a wise approach to being as successful as you can be?

Quotes by Albert Einstein:

‘The more I learn, the more I realize that I don’t know.
The more I realize I don’t know, the more I want to learn.’

‘In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.’

‘With deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.’

‘Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.’

‘No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.’

‘The most important thing is to never stop questioning for curiosity has its own reason for existing.’

‘Imagination is more important that knowledge.’

‘The only real valuable thing is intuition.’

‘There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.‘

I want to know God’s thoughts, the rest are details.’

This is your life and you either shape your perceptions or someone else will.  You either program your mind or someone else will.  No one can affect us unless we choose to let them.  No one can do anything to us unless we allow them to.  No one can hurt us unless we choose to hurt ourselves with the information they share or by allowing people to take advantage of us.  We can live our lives as the SOURCE of our own lives or we can live our lives as a victim.  It is either Victory or Victim depending on our choice.  Also, not making a choice is actually a choice.

Life is a process.  Do you notice that although formal education and school does end at some point when you graduate college or finish your degree, you never really stop learning and growing.  The true process of life is a constantly evolving and changing universe.  Everything is always growing and evolving in life to its highest potential.  This is the very nature of life.  When you choose to stop learning or growing you stagnate and there are consequences.  By continuing to be open to life’s changes nature, you allow yourself to unfold into your divine plan.

The only constant in life is change. 

This is a fact, so by being open to continue to learn and grow you can consistently improve you and your life and prosper.  Now the Game of Life requires that we grow spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically and financially.  You have heard the expression that you have to grow in all areas of body, mind and spirit.  Yes, it can be a lot to deal with.  How do you keep all aspects of your life balanced and growing and take care of your health, daily activities, job, relationships, families and all of your responsibilities? 

The answer is by being present and taking life one thing at a time with balance, harmony, honesty and integrity.  Being in the flow, in touch with your heart and intuition (feelings) and higher faculties of awareness and perception allows you to have a magnificent life.  This also allows you to use you mind and brain appropriately.  However, if you live in your mind and in your head without accessing the other key resources that we are blessed with, it makes life quite difficult for you to fully express your divine potential.

‘The Quality of my life is directly related to the quality of my communication, with myself first and with others.’

‘Sometimes in the wind of change we find our true destiny.’
