MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

RELEASE

Sometimes we need to have discussions with others because they may ask questions we do not consider, view aspects we do not realize as “important”, seeing us and the world through “fresh” eyes and a change in perspective. I had a conversation a few days ago that caused reflection; a question asked that made me sit back and think because I had never considered it before. Why is it that we can “not” do certain things when they seem so simple? What is “preventing” us from doing it? What is “blocking” the “flow” of action and ease of interaction with not just others [at times] but also with ourselves?

What IS it that is holding you BACK [no matter the area of your life]? You might need to search deep to find the answers; it might be uncomfortable and difficult and there could be inner turmoil as you struggle with your demons in the darkness and depths that have to be ventured into, but when you find those answers life will become much EASIER. You need to be OPEN to what you find, understanding that the answers may not be what you thought; perhaps an issue you never even realized was an issue or something long thought resolved. Whatever it is, you need to “see” and KNOW it with your ESSENCE.

To do that you have to uncover whatever it is that is holding you back, do more than “discover” it, because that is just the first step of the process; you need to not just “see” it but UNDERSTAND it and truly KNOW in and with everything that you are, because only when you do that can you ultimately RELEASE it. When you release and “let go” of it you can then “speak” far MORE than words. When you speak “knowledge” from your CORE and not just from your mind, you are one step CLOSER to being able to walk and live the life you want [and need].

You OWE it to yourself to take that step; to stop and reflect and ask yourself the “hard” questions you might not have wanted to ask or not known until now to ask; to search BELOW the surface of what “appears” to be to what truly IS; to understand and get to know yourself on a level you might have never known before. When you are in true alignment with your soul you need not doubt, but simply act, because everything else becomes simpler; life becomes simpler, because you know what you need to do and have NO hesitation or unconscious inhibitions in doing it.

2013 | Day 19: ACCOUNTABILITY


MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ACCOUNTABILITY

I am accountable to MYSELF first and foremost. Yes, it is important to have others to whom we can hold ourselves accountable, especially when it comes to our goals, but in the end, we must RESPECT ourselves enough to be able to be accountable for our own person in our heart. Being accountable to yourself means being HONEST with yourself. It means taking RESPONSIBILITY for your own actions, accepting that you and you alone made the decision to do whatever it is that you did, and you and you alone are your source of achievement or disappointment. When you are able to do that you are able to GROW. When you are able to grow, you can become an INSPIRATION for others who may have or are struggling with the same issues that you have experienced. It helps you to MINISTER to others, able to empathize with their situation, and offer some source of comfort. It allows you to start being able to be honest with OTHERS. When you are honest with others, it lets them know that it’s ok to be human and be flawed and make mistakes, which in turn might help them be able to open up and SHARE their experiences and hardships with others, to create more COMMUNITY. Community, the coming together of different cultures and people from all walks and ways of life, begins to create a UNIFIED world.

2012 | Day 254: GOOD FOR THE SOUL


MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

GOOD FOR THE SOUL

Sometimes doing the very thing that you DON’T want to do is what you NEED to do to bring your soul PEACE. Comfort with yourself, confidence in who you ARE, the ability to let your worries fly free, are all markers of a soul that has come to terms with their ROLE in the world, knowing and ACCEPTING their deepest and darkest secrets, often hidden for so long from themselves at the core.

It’s GOOD for the soul to FACE your secrets, to face YOURSELF, to learn to let GO of the world you cannot change and focus on changing what you CAN, knowing that if you are NOT happy with what you see and know and are doing, changing a small part of the world, the one you are IMMERSED in.

It’s good for the soul to KNOW thyself, to get a grasp on WHO you are and WHERE you NEED and WANT to be. Change is a CONSTANT evolution and we must ensure that we are NOT left behind in the progression for BETTERING ourselves, the pursuit of our PURPOSE.
