NO PAIN NO GAIN

If you ever want to improve on something, you need to work at it. There is no easy way through life without ever having to put our soul into doing, into applying, into practising – those very things that promotes a ‘growth mindset’ and ‘conscious leadership’.

It is not enough to just read e.g. quotes, inspirational or motivational books, attend inspiring seminars etc., without having to apply those underlying principles. I am referring to some basic underlying principles such as ACCEPTANCE, GRATITUDE and HUMILITY. Those principles that govern how we live our lives on a deeper and more meaningful level. These principles that strengths your learning, your practice, and enables you to take responsibility for your actions (rather than blaming others).

The results are evident in the application – taking some form of action (in doing), otherwise things remain the same. If they do change, it may just be on a superficial level. Those principles have in many cases been tried and tested by yourself (without being fully conscious), and others that you respect and admire.

The challenges which we face are in the application of those fundamental principles (apparent in our materialistic world), which are difficult to live by let alone practise. That is our real test!

 

Materialism v Spiritualism

When God orders changes to occur, chaos ensues, as struggle breaks out between materialism and spiritualism. For decades, materialism was allowed to reign, in promoting a material culture.

Materialism was happy in taking full responsibility, dominating whilst promoting technology, economic wealth and advancement in science.

Materialism prospered globally, though selfishly destroying our oceans, our land, our food, and our mind, all for its own personal gain.  After a series of global setbacks, struggles, wars, greed, caused by the materialistic culture, the next stage of civilisation, is to give spiritualism the reigns again.

As we move forwards, the responsibility will be bestowed to spiritualism, as a civilisation that is to become more God-centered, spiritual way of thinking. We should not lose sight, of the writhe caused by materialistic gains.

More of us are leaning towards spirituality, and that which leads to increasing happiness and prosperity. No wonder things are not going well in our lives, as we selfishly continue only thinking of our own convenience.

Personally, I welcome a world in pursuit of spiritual wisdom and values, rather than material gains.  As we are all fully aware, material gains, does not necessarily lead to peace nor happiness.

No more excuses!

How much longer are you going to keep making the same excuses, and mistakes?

How much longer are you going to keep saying that ‘No one is perfect’?

That adage is just an excuse in my opinion, for not striving to do better, not striving for improvement, not striving to raise your standards or game.

Without practise how can you ever improve?  You have to work at something to improve it and perfect it.  Giving up is such a cheaper option, and a less challenging one.

In the same way we seek to increase the value of our property by making improvements to it, is the same way we increase our self worth and value by improvements also.

We have to make every effort to make conditions better in various aspects of our lives, and not just leave it to chance.  We have to make every effort to make things better than they were before, or better than we did before.  Either way it is an improvement of what it was previously.

If you no longer want to live a life, that no longer serves you, then apply those positive things that will add more value and enhance your life.

‘Practice may not seem perfect; it certainly is an improvement from what it was to what it is…NOW’.  ~ Olive Guillais-Lazure

MY HEARTFELT CONDOLENCES

Dear Reader

First I would like to say that I am sorry to hear about your loss, and send you my heartfelt condolences, including waves of love.

Loss and grief is something that we are all going to experience at certain stages of our lives, and no one is immune to it. It will never be easy to lose a loved one, whatever the circumstances, and no matter the age.

I feel that our experiences albeit loss or otherwise, is to be shared, which in turn, will help you (the Giver) to heal, and others too (the Receivers). I also believe, that our experiences has a profound message attached to it, and as profound as it may seem, is all part of our life journey.

Nothing can replace the love or loss, though, the experience (the loving experience you shared with your loved one), when shared with others can help quicken your healing process, whilst proving support to others during their healing process.

Going by my own personal example, the POWORDFUL page consists of my own thoughts and experiences. I share these, knowing that it is helping, healing, supporting, inspiring, motivating as well as transforming others.  This is my way of sharing my message with the Universe, which I might add, find spiritually healing in return.

I hope that this message shared today, will bring some positive relief to YOU.

I am here, so should you need to write to me again, please don’t hesitate.

Thank you also for your very nice compliments about my posts.  It is with love that I write.

Sending you waves of love and blessings!!
