Why Ask Questions?

It is better to know some of the questions rather than to know all the answers.  – James Thurber

another quote

"He that knows not, and knows not that he knows not is a fool. Shun him

He that knows not, and knows that he knows not is a pupil. Teach him.

He that knows, and knows not that he knows is asleep. Wake him.

He that knows, and knows that he knows is a teacher. Follow him."

– Attributed to :: Omar Khayam, 13th century philosopher

questions

When we’re lost does it not help to ask rather than to assume and act as though we know? Well it’s the same way in life. To seek and find answers to life’s most difficult and mysterious questions; we must ask. If we go about thinking we already know, that would be true, except limited to what we already know! Let’s think in questions! Refine these questions. Journal all questions. We grow when we do that.

Where Are All The Answers?

New souls look to secrets, rites, and rituals. Advanced souls look to science, math, and evidence. And old souls look within. Look within.  – The Universe

superstitious?

It’s hard not to be superstitious. We think we’re responsible for us in this world. And not being in control we’re often afraid and unsure. What should we do?

look within

Better advice has never been given. Better advice has never been received. Look within…

How To Be More Creative…

The thoughts that come often unsought, and, as it were, drop into the mind, are commonly the most valuable of any we have.  – John Locke

pop in

There are indeed thoughts that just ‘drop’ into our minds. The valuable ones are of the kind that help us find direction, provide positive motivation, ask us to connect with someone, remind us of an important chore or reveal that idea we were searching for!

source

Where do you think these thoughts come from? I have my own theory; however the way to increase the prevalence of these thoughts, is to have a still mind through out the day. A still mind is possible when we witness all happenings and catch ourselves from being caught in the usual maelstrom that is our thoughts!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM still so that I can receive valuable thoughts…

What Are We Choosing?

You can choose to be a person who has resulted simply from what has happened, or from what you’ve chosen to be and do about what has happened.  – Neale Donald Walsch

events + choice

How we react to life events is a decision we make! Jack Canfield shares the following formula:

E + R = O

Event plus our reaction to that event results in an outcome. The event is what it is; how we choose to be (sad, happy, indifferent etc.) and to do anything (shout, smile, lash out, learn…) is a choice we make every time.

being

Our peace is entirely up to us because we control our reaction to all external stimuli. How do we choose to react? Rather how do we choose to be?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM choosing the higher reaction!

Why We’re Enough…

…by design, who you are is always the greater than what you now face.  – The Universe

challenges

Life challenges are ever-present. Why do we get overwhelmed by them? How can we best face them?

greater

We’re always greater than any challenge presented to us. What if we always held this strengthening idea within us? This also means that we can pretty much succeed at anything we can dream up. What then will we set out to achieve?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM big enough for any challenge!

How Dreams Choose Us…

Always trust your dreams. They’ve chosen you, as much as you’ve chosen them.  – The Universe

dreams

Dreams are not dreamt up by us alone. Dreams are the stuff of the Universe. Just like many of our ideas, dreams are how the Creative Force acts in the realms of time and space. If we don’t dance the dreams that we dream, the Universe doesn’t get to play!

chosen

God creates us and then he creates through us and in partnership with us. The dreams that he dreams must find fertile ground. And so God’s dreams choose us as possible recipients and co-creators. It’s a divine responsibility of the highest order.

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM dreaming big dreams and feeling good!
