10 Of My Own Quotable Quotes – Part 70
Dec 22nd
1. No negative force can withstand the tip of a sharp pen driven or controlled by a focused mind. Wisdom will not diminish when the inspired keep recording their inspiration for posterity. Wisdom contained in one vessel has limited chances to impact humanity. Wisdom shared is vital for human growth and inspiration.
2. Everything we will ever desire for life on this earth is in God. God lives outside our definition of property ownership. He lives outside time as we know it. If you are willing and obedient to what he desires of you, you will eat of the good of the land, guaranteed. God will step into your zone. Will you ready when He does?
3. When we use God given resources for show off then we are compromising the purpose of wealth. It is God who gives you the power to make wealth. He however puts an expectation for stewardship not misappropriation. Be careful when you get blessed that it does not come to sorrow due to misuse. Ask for Ananias and Saphira for lessons on accounting for blessings
4. The fact that you are out of a situation physically does not necessarily mean the situation is out of you. If you have experienced extreme poverty, you may still behave as if you have nothing even after upgrading your financial status. Its in the mind. It takes determination and willingness to fore-go this mindset.
5. No one ever makes mistakes deliberately. You may see an error prone person but they are possibly at their optimum best. Never use your own thoughts as benchmarks for others. You can short change them.
6. He who gives advice has to be careful to obey what he proclaims or suggests. Life is a culmination of seasons. You may be giving judgment today only to be the accused tomorrow. Be conscious of the reason behind every season. You reaction to the season will determine how far you will go in life.
7. The strength of any family is in the things they choose to do together. There is no place for individuality and isolation. A family that prays and plays together is a healthy family. More-so, a family must be the safest place where the deeper issues of life are discussed without anyone feeling the brunt of judgmentalism.
8. It is easy to see problems and shortcomings in another person than the ones you carry. The reason why you are almost a specialist at judging others is largely because there is abundance of the same shortcomings in you.
9. Leaders are in the business of creating winners in those they lead. Leaders who view followers as competition will never think of hiring people who are sharper and more articulate. Furthermore they cease to develop themselves beyond where they are. Stagnation is a detriment to a leader’s greatness.
10. Your mind, will power and your emotions are constantly driving your body to act on things that will either grow you or destroy you. It is however unfortunate that by the time you discover it, the deterioration would have gone to irreversible levels.
Concentration of Mind
Oct 7th
How many of us really seriously and sincerely concentrate on our goals from start to finish with positive energy and focused concentration of mind?
I’m talking about fixed high-powered concentration of mind on a specific objective or task without thoughts of multiple future tasks, past thoughts, personal issues or fear of unknown!!
I wonder how fast could we reach our goals if we gave them our full concentration of mind consciously and subconsciously.
What’s really stopping us from having super mind concentration powers and making good habits that benefit us in the long run?
What if we made our nervous system our ally and associated feeling real good about working and taking the proper steps toward accomplishing our goals even if we are not sure exactly how yet!
Almost like that pleasurable meal or that pleasurable high from great sex in the height of love!
Most of us want to do the thing that is a dis-empowerment to us more than we want to do the thing that empowers us when we really get down to the truth. Our minds are so scattered with poor concentration that we cannot hold a single thought for 5 minutes without jumping from thought to thought.
This is so true when you sit and really think about it. We probably want to watch TV or sleep or relax more, go to the game or talk more or be lazy more than we want to take that one step to empower yourself which can be so simple when you learn to play the concentration game.
I struggled with this for a long time. I had great ideas and great moments that felt like epiphanies time after time over and over again. I would learn super empowering secrets and principles but for years, I had too much poor concentration to really see long-term goals through to the end.
My goals would shift from one to the next or I would spread my self-thin… especially with my music career.
I had no definite aim. I was overwhelmed with beautiful knowledge and inspiration but I suffered from the concentration problem.
I would go from one good idea to the next and one strategy to the next and one plan to the next and one hustle to the next. Trying to change so much but I wasn’t completing the projects I started to move on to the next in growth.
My energies were scattered and I knew nothing about how precise and specific my mind concentration needed to be in doing a specific task.
I would like to know if anyone else is or was going through this concentration problem or being overwhelmed and how did you conquer it.
I listened to the audio book, “Power of Concentration” by Theron Q. Dumont and “Though Vibration” by William Atkinson and I realized that I had been ignoring and dismissing some very important things. Like how important the sayings are “energy flows where attention goes” or “attention is like a beam of light.”
Can any of you hold a precise shaped picture of a box in your mind for 2 minutes with out your mind wavering? Try fixing your attention to a doorknob for 10 minutes to improve mind concentration!
I had to learn how to harness this power of attention and mind concentration. Then it seemed as though a way started being paved the more and more I realized this power existed. I started understanding and accepting the responsibility of multiple tasks with clarity on when and how to do them.
I understood that a concentrated mind is a powerful force that can create reality and change the flow of energy. Poor concentration comes from weak will.
