How To Practice Wonder!

The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.  – W.B. Yeats

dull eyes

Are our eyes dulled and dead to the magic out there? Are we hypnotized to the magic within? Are we essentially not living? The unfortunate answer is ‘Yes’…

open them

To come alive we must open our eyes wide. We must get out of our heads and walk with your hearts wide open. We can then recognize the beauty and magic that surrounds us. We’ll see the multiple shades of green in the grass and the trees, we’ll see the wild colors that spring springs upon us and we’ll become aware of the loving peace that dwells deep within us…

Why We Must ‘Act’!

You are quite capable of reacting in a happy and healthy manner to everything that happens to you.Vernon Howard

react

We are creatures of habit, so we almost always react to most life situations. Especially as they relate to folks near and dear to us. Why is that?

act!

It’s funny, if we breakdown the word re-act, it connotes a meaning quite opposite of how it’s used [a thought-provoking sidebar]! Let’s act while being fully present and conscious of what we’re doing. That way we’ll design a far superior outcome than the most likely one!

How To Change Everything…

Life has no remote. Get up and change it yourself.  – Life Has No Remote

what needs change?

We await the savior. Or we await an external agent to come and rescue us. We don’t need rescuing! Is there something we don’t like about our life or about us?

us

Let’s face what it is that’s not working. And then resolve to act on it. Acting on ‘it’ really means acting on us. We need to change us and our perspective on things. That’s it, the rest follows…

The One Essential Trick To Effect Change…

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.  – Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

it’s us

It is a broken record. We must change self. We must change self. We must change self! The other person may not change and all personal issues stem from the way we look at the world!

perspective

We change our selves by changing the way we look at us, at them and at everything else. We can assert control over our minds and gain victory by doing so!

Why We Must Create!

We were created to create, not to react!  – Neale Donald Walsch

react

We mostly react our way through life. We wait for things to happen. We bury our heads in the sand. We let things get out of hand. We don’t think that we are creators. We don’t think we’re worthy enough to be children of God!

create

But we are the offspring of the Creator, we do spring from the very bosom of the Universe and we are much more than we imagine. We must awaken to our heritage and our inheritance, we must love boldly, think like creative children and live without abandon! Let’s create beauty all around us, in our relationships and in everything that we attempt! Are we up-to the challenge?

How To Improve Character…

 

inherited urges

We are animals who are becoming children of God. We battle animalistic urges daily. Whether it has to do with an appetite, anger or jealousy, we must assert control!

moral character

The way we react to life and events is akin to using the chisel on a sculpture. That sculpture, a masterpiece, is us. That’s how we artistically design our lives. Are we willing to take on that responsibility?
