It Still May Be Us

Some things never change, do they?
Time to think about some things.

Some time ago I wrote an article, that if the same things keep happening to us just about everywhere we go, then we have to take a look in the mirror. That it's not the world against us, it may be us against ourselves.

I think many of us had to learn this lesson or at least learn some version of this lesson that it wasn't all about us. Some of us needed to get a revelation that it was us who needed to change in order to grow. I know I learned a few lessons that I simply had to do things differently for different things to happen. I'm continuing to learn as I go and the fact that we are still learning is a great thing. Nothing wrong with that at all. Continuous learning should be just that, continuous, no matter how old we are. It puzzles me when people don't want to change and their rationale is, 'I'm just being me" or "I'm too old to change" or "I'm stuck in my ways" or "It's them, not me and I'm not changing.' Wow, so is what I'm hearing here, that we are always right and everyone else is wrong? Everyone else? Really?

Free our minds and the rest will follow.

Nobody has arrived and all of us can learn something new no matter who we are. We would be surprised what happens when we just open up and listen to people. If we're hearing the same things everywhere we go, we should take self-inventory and ask ourselves, what can I do differently? Our world can open wider and we can do the things we never thought we could do, go places we never thought we would go, and be the people God always had for us to be.

That involves us having an open attitude and working on ourselves, not expecting others to.

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up. We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves.

In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines.

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately.

Protecting My Peace - Day 95 - We Have to Stop Giving Away Our Power

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. Are you giving away your power? Are you letting people take control over our lives? If so, it’s time to stop operating like that. If we’re letting anyone influence us to the point that it’s causing us emotional pain or taking our peace, we have to move away from such people. It doesn’t matter if it’s in a personal or professional environment. Stay positive and productive in the process though, because dealing with challenges are part of the life process. Nevertheless, we can “fight” for our right for peace and respect. We just fight smart and continue to know who we are, especially who we are in Christ Jesus.
