BELIEFS


We behave in accordance with the beliefs  that we carry.

We act on what we believe to be true, not what is necessarily the truth . 

 Our minds only allows in information  that  backs what  we currently already believe.

To make real change we must be open to questioning our current beliefs.

  forgive

          FORGIVENESS by rodney Allgood

Can  we  forgive?  Can we let it go?  Shall  we hold on to the hurt, let  resentment  grow?

Is someone truly evil,  for an offensive  word?  Maybe  what  they  meant, was  not  what  you heard

A misunderstanding  might be all it's about., but  is  it  worth all the poison coming from your mouth?

Carrying this  only hurts you.  Revenge....will only make this more true

Maybe its damage done to you in the past, a  few decades are enough, or do you wish it  to last?

Forgiveness…..a word, people mistake it  for weak,  as ego appears  strong,  but true  strength is meek

Better to be humble, and let it all go . You’ll leave  more  space  for your mind to  grow

Forgiveness  is there for us all  to use. Forgiveness  added love, a pair that can never lose

Mahatma Gandhi

 

Forgive others

 

ask for forgiveness


 

Forgive yourself


 

live in gratitude




 

 

 

 

 THANK YOU  by rodney Allgood

TAKE  A  MINUTE,  LOOK  AROUND YOU,  IT’S  HARD TO  IGNORE  ALL THE  THINGS  IN  LIFE THAT  WE  SHOULD  BE  GRATEFUL FOR

THE  SUNRISE  IN  THE  MORNING, THE BIRDS  THAT SING,  ALL THE JOY  THAT  THE LAUGHTER  OF  A  CHILD CAN   BRING

THE  ENDLESS  OCEAN,  THE  GLORIOUS  SKY,  THE  LIST GOES  ON   FOREVER  IF  WE  REALLY  TRY

A  HOME-COOKED MEAL,  THE  ROOF  OVER  OUR  HEAD  A  GOOD   NIGHTS  SLEEP  ON   A  KING  SIZE  BED

THE  FAMILY    THAT LOVES  US,  THE  FRIENDS  THAT  CARE  THE  GOD-GIVEN   TALENTS  THAT  WE  WERE  BORN   TO SHARE

THE  MAGNIFICENT  MOUNTAINS  THAT  PEAK  IN   THE   CLOUDS   THE   WAY  WE  FEEL WHEN  WE  LAUGH     OUT LOUD

A PIANO…….A BASS……. A SAXOPHONE  CREATE  BEAUTIFUL  SOUNDS  WHEN  WE’RE   CHILLIN’  ALONE 

A  STRANGERS   SMILE,   A  CHIVALROUS  MAN,   BUYING  FRESH  PICKED  FRUIT  FROM  A   ROADSIDE    STAND

A  NEW  BORN  BABY,  WITH  THAT NEW  BABY  SMELL., OLD   FOLKS    THAT   WE LOVE, WITH   THE  STORIES  THEY  TELL

LIFE  IS  FILLED WITH GIFTS,  THERE  IS  NOTHING  MORE  TRUE TAKE  A   MOMENT  EACH  DAY,   SAY THE WORDS…..THANK YOU.

    Hi Rodney, Thanks for accepting my friend request. I don't know if you remember me it's been such a long time since graduation. We attended Elementary all the way to high school together. I was the girl no one wanted to know. Anyways I am glad that life has been good to you and that God will continue to bless you and your family. I saw you the other week at fort st. mall, i was taking my lunch break. Well i guess now you can delete me as your friend. See you around May : )

    Hello there! No, I won't delete you, I only delete negative people...lol. Yes its been a very very long time since school, I get very foggy with names, but I usually remember better with a last name too. So what was your maiden last name? Im sure I'll remember, with that, especially we went to school together, since grade school. What a great memory you have if you recognized me after all this time! Wow!

  • Mebelin Saylor
     

    My maiden name was polendey, short filipino girl. See back then i was the outsider who new people's faces and names. I guess you know by the way i am talking that i was not one of the popular girls.

using positive affirmations

An affirmation is a statement of statement of fact or belief. Whether you know it or not  you have been using them all day, everyday, the power is in controlling, and manipulating them to your benefit . This is the secret of high performance individuals.
Here are some guidelines to writing effective affirmations.
  1. MAKE IT PERSONAL : Write your affirmations with the word "I" in them. They are only for you, so it MUST be personal. Change will only happen because of you, and what you do. The picture you will begin to see because of your affirmations.
  2. KEEP IT POSITIVE : Vividly describe what you want in the affirmation. Describe what you want to steer toward, and not away from, what would it look like if you had it  now.

using affirmations

4. WRITE IT IN THE PRESENT TENSE : Make use of your imagination, affirmations MUST be written as if it is happening right now.
5. DON'T COMPARE TO OTHERS : We are all different, and how  you do this will be highly personal, and techniques may vary.
6. USE WORDS OF ACTION : Use words that trigger vivid pictures, words like "simply, quickly, fantastic, achieve, confidently, excites, etc.
7. USE WORDS THAT TRIGGER EMOTION : This is a critical piece. The more you feel a rush of positive emotion when picturing the goal, the quick the affirmation will work.

Using affirmations

8. BE SPECIFIC :  Write the your goal, clearly and specific, don't use generalities. If it's to exercise, describe what kind of exercise, when? For how long? write it so you get a clear vivid picture.
9. COVER ALL AREAS OF LIFE : Don't get stuck on one facet of life, as we don't want one area of life to run away from the other.
10. STAY REALISTIC : Take a moment, and visualize what you want. Can you see it? Feel it? Is it real? If not, it's probably not in your zone of realism right now.
11. KEEP IT CONFIDENTIAL : Please do not share with anyone who you are not absolutely certain of that they will be of the utmost to you. 

Affirmations

  • We behave like the person you know ourselves to be
  • We must change the idea of who we are on our sub- conscience level

  • If written correctly, imagery should be created
  • The sub conscience does not know the difference from reality and vivid imagination
  • Best time for affirmations is before sleep, and when first waking, although the more reps the better

3 step process

1. Read your affirmation aloud, close your eyes.

2. Have your imagination take you there, wherever "there" is, depending on what the words described.

3.  Let in the corresponding emotion (remember,emotion is the fuel)


*Concentrate on your self talk more than, forcing  any desired behaviors.
