A Life Is Defined By Action

wd oooHow many great ideas are destroyed before they have a chance to take root? How many are discarded by the neglect of time? Due to fear of failure or a lack of self-confidence? The time to wait is over, and the time for action is here. Taking action is THE ingredient that turns the perfect combination of raw materials into a masterpiece. Life is defined by the actions one takes or, in many cases, the inaction.

I wanted to share a few things I have learned about grasping your life by the throat through action. None of them are complicated to do, but they can be daunting, and I continually have to remind myself about these things.

Forget your Fears

We are all afraid at some point. Fear has served its purpose in your life to help keep you safe in a wild world, but it can become too much for people to function at the level of their highest capabilities. What is there to be afraid of? Action will defeat fear. Always!

inactionIf you stretch yourself, reaching for something you want, what is the worst thing? Fear will stop you from getting because you may be hurt, but that cocoon you exist in has become a cage, and it is time to let that go. Action will destroy fear.

Ignore the negative voices of others and even your mind. When someone behaves without fear, it can make people uncomfortable because their worries are displayed in comparison. Encourage the negative to seek positive actions. Actions will defeat fear.

Recognize your fear, thank it for caring and then do what you should. Move forward with all of the drive and ambition that you have in your heart. You are a bright light that doesn’t need to be hidden anymore. It is your time to shine through the dim fog of fear. Action will destroy fear.

Focus on Your Voice

There is a voice guiding our actions in each of us, and it performs this duty perfectly and for our greater good. Unfortunately, many of us lack a practical aptitude for hearing this voice, much less following it.

The voice is not in your mind but in your heart, and it can only be heard when you quiet your mind and listen. This is the guide that can tell you what you need to know and help guide your steps toward your dreams. To quiet the reason is a simple breathing practice, focusing on your breath and not paying attention to the endless stream of thoughts in your mind. 99% of these are not essential or relevant.

If you have a fail, it is this voice that will tell you to keep on going. Regardless of what others or your mind think, your greatness will be revealed when listening to this voice. Quiet your mind and focus on your voice. It is never wrong and will guide you into the action and places you need to go. You have to have faith and follow what it tells you. This is admittedly difficult to do, but what have you got to lose? A life of comfortable mediocrity?

Be Conscious of Your Vibration

Quantum physics has proven that each object globally projects a measurable vibration based on its physical makeup. You and I are no different, with the minor exception that human being seems to be able to adjust their vibration by changing how they perceive the world. Your thoughts are paramount to this. You can’t control all of your thoughts because they come pretty rapidly sometimes. Yet we have total control over the views we pay attention to and, of course, our reaction to those thoughts. 

In a nutshell, focus on the thoughts that come from love, such as kindness, joy, peace, hope, benevolence, empathy, truth, faith, and compassion. They provide a higher vibration and power.   Give no attention to thoughts like envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, resentment, guilt, inferiority, lies, superiority, or ego, which are all thoughts of fear. These lower vibrations will thwart your plans and make your life less enjoyable.

Positive thoughts are the motivation for our best actions. Our actions will define us. Many believe that your vibration will determine what type of life you will experience. Be conscious of which thoughts you focus on, and they will evaluate the experiences that come into your life. The quality of people you meet and the success you ultimately enjoy through your experience.

Kick  It Now

All of this is to urge you to go for it. If you have a mountain in front of you, climb it! Start swimming if there is an ocean between you and what you want. Now is your time.

All people are born with extraordinary abilities, and how much of those the world will see is determined by your conscious decisions to take action. If you want to lose weight, start doing something to lose weight!

If you want to be successful, start doing what you can to achieve your goals. There is absolutely nothing between you and your dreams than a lack of action. 

The Courage

We all have to walk down the dark corridors of our lives, and there are moments we need to find all the courage we have inside to keep moving forward even though fear is gripping our hearts. Courage is the ingredient that allows a person to take their next step, though they are afraid of what might happen. Freedom from fear shifts a person’s energy from the negative to the positive. Courage allows you to dismiss the opposing forces of doubt and fear and replace them with hope and expectation of something positive happening in your life.

You can choose to bring your courage into your conscious thought every day by recognizing the daily fears you face and still do what you have to anyway. Here are three significant concerns we all need to overcome at some point; 1. The anxiety of the future 2. fear of rejection 3. Fear of failure. With a shift in focus and awareness, we can deal with what scares us, and it starts with noticing your thoughts of fear and answering the question: Do I have the courage to face my nightmare?

Courage for the Future

Fear about the future is what many worries are based on. Somehow people believe that if they play out every nasty, negative, and painful scenario of what might happen in their mind, they will never be hurt or disappointed. Worry is negative energy that brings negative things into your thought process, the words you use with others, and, of course, the actions you take. Fear never brings anything good to anyone, and it robs you of the good things you have in your life right now. Isn’t this what anxieties of all kinds are based on? The future may have challenges in it, and those things will help you grow. Eventually, our death will come, and the ending of everything will ultimately happen. Worry won’t stop that. It just makes your experience of today far less enjoyable.

Put your worries away and focus on the positive things in your life right now. Enjoy the good things you have at this moment. Prepare for the future, as any responsible person would. But realize that whatever is coming your way is coming. There will be loss, sadness, and pain. There will also be joy, laughter, and great experiences. Have courage that you will be able to weather the negative, and the positive will be present in much larger quantities. Have courage about the future and the positive things it will bring to your life. There are no guarantees, so embrace the joy when it comes to you.

Courage about Rejection

People may reject you or something you do for many reasons, and the truth is, most have little or nothing to do with you. It is their past experiences, choices, and consciousness making those choices. Don’t take any of this personally. It is them, not you. Put your plan in action and do it in a way that makes you happy. Even though you may have lost someone or something you treasure, look for the good in the situation. It may not be easy to recognize, but it will be there.

Changing your perspective takes courage to do because there will always be naysayers and doubters. And often, the biggest doubter you will face will be in your head. Ignore their noise. People will come into your life who will discourage you. Make you doubt who you are and affect you negatively. If they put as much effort into pursuing their dreams as critical of others, they could accomplish anything. They are the definition of negative mediocrity. Give their opinions about all the attention they deserve. Non Have courage, try, create, do, go, find, build, and believe!

Fear of Failure

Now we come to what I think is the most common fear, and that is a failure. What is a failure but a label? We are trained in education to view breakdown as the worst result. Things are not always going to go perfectly. But it isn’t. If you are genuinely creating and reaching for something new, there is a real chance you aren’t going to get it right the first time. But each attempt at something provides information, experience, and skill. Those can work to a challenge, and the next time you will get a different result. The courage to ignore a negative view of failure and see how this situation provides an opportunity to grow, learn, and ultimately gain success. That is how it has worked throughout the history of man.

It takes real courage to face this challenge. Our society views anything but perfect results as a failure. There is little margin for error. Why is this? Could it be that if we encouraged thinking and fundamental knowledge, people would be less controllable? Individuals might develop ideas that would change things. Be brave and let your courage drive your process of learning. Not the expectations and judgments of narrow-minded small people. Give them all the regard they earn. They have no idea where you are going and what you can do. Unless you accept their narrative about you, it’s your choice to be more conscious of your courage.

Have Courage and Do It

Let your consciousness continually become aware that life is a little game. There is a beginning, a middle, and an end. We are all moving toward the inevitable, don’t waste your time in fear. Find your courage to make changes in your life that leads you toward living like your best self.

People fear change naturally, even if it is clearly for the better. Be brave and have the faith that it will work out in the end. Nobody can be sure where that end is, but having the courage and taking action will lead to a result. Find your courage today, and it all begins with a higher awareness of your thoughts, words, and activities. You can then learn, evaluate, grow, improve, and make better actions. You are eventually becoming and achieving what you want.

Courage- the ability to do something that frightens one.

We all have courage inside us that will allow us to achieve all of the great things we want to accomplish if we learn to use it.

“True courage is not the absence of fear—but the willingness to proceed despite it.”–Unknown.

“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.”― Winston S. Churchill.

 

One of A Kind

The human experience can be a confusing ride. We are all created with unique gifts,  Be Differentpersonalities, talents, looks, and likes.  Each of us a one of a kind wonder, but in our society, it seems that our individuality is either discouraged or ignored.  We spend a whole lot of time trying to be the same as others and worrying about fitting into the expectation of society or, more significantly, the approval of others. As I grew up, I was inundated with messages to fit in. Being unique was a horrible fate and avoided at all costs. Life was a struggle to continually “be normal” and not deviate from what society told me we could and should hope to be. If I was experiencing this struggle, I am sure others did too. There have to be others who are hiding their true selves just to fit in.  Don’t let life take away your individuality.  Letting society tell you what you should be, rather than working on being who you should be.  Be unique today, and it all starts with a greater awareness of your thoughts about yourself today.  Notice these ideas and the emotions they bring to the surface in you. The words you use, and the actions that you take.  We are all gifted, and it’s a journey to find our gifts and share them with the world.

Strength Arise When You are Unique

be differentEach of us is unique, and it is one of the gifts that you get just being alive. It is a cruel joke that so much of our programming in life is to deny us the awareness of our unique magic inside. It is no wonder that there is rampant drug use and increasing cases of depression when nobody is really encouraged to be themselves. What could be more painful than not being allowed to be who you are in your natural state?.

I believe that denying our skills, talents, creativity and unique abilities is a punishment that causes much pain and suffering in the world. We should develop a society that embraces differences, not criticize them. All differences bring strength to a family, a workplace, a school, a town, a city, a country, and the world. It is only fear that stops this from happening. Be Unique. Don’t fall in line like a sheep, color your way, run, don’t walk. Be who you feel you are, and never apologize for it.

Defeat Fear, Be Different

Our society has done a masterful job of making all people feel inadequate with themselves in every way be differentpossible. We are bombarded with images of “perfect” people that we should try to look like. This is impossible, so we feel inadequate, and we try to fill those insecurities with “stuff.”  Which is what the marketing propaganda wants. Buy this, and you will feel better. The story we are told makes us believe that we will never be happy until we have all of the “things” we are being sold.  But this has never worked to ease the pain I have felt. You end up with a lot of meaningless stuff and an empty soul.

To allow uniqueness to be really celebrated,  we have to find a way to get over this type of brainwashing, be happy being ourselves, and be comfortable being different and wonderful.  This will only happen when we start to appreciate our unique talents and perspectives. That will allow us to look for and appreciate the uniqueness of others as well. It starts by noticing the programming that you are inundated with and ignoring it. Be different, be yourself, and be proud of being who you are.

 Uniquely You

So how does it feel to know that you are the only one that has ever existed exactly like you? In all the billions of people throughout time, nobody has been like you, and you are one of a kind and unique to you. Others may try to imitate, but they will fail in matching the real thing. That is you and your special ways of doing things.  From how you make cookies to how often you work out at the gym.  You are the only one who does it like you.

There is power in this knowledge. Yes, we are all connected and have similarities with other people, but there isn’t anyone who can think as you do, talk like you do, act as you do, provide the joy you do, or do anything that you can do.  One of the things I find is people who really learn to like themselves. Their strengths and their flaws become unique and special in their lives.  In the end, it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks about us and the things we have done. It matters what we think, and those thoughts are one of a kind to us.  Look at and notice your thoughts today and how they make you a unique person ready to contribute to the world. See how your unique thoughts lead to your emotions, your words, and, of course, your actions.  Your choices are unique to you.

“You are unique, there is no denying it, and that gift makes you powerful.”

“Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.”-  Margaret Mead

“Being the best is great, you’re the number one. Being unique is greater, you’re the only one.”  –  Anonymous.

“Embrace your uniqueness. Time is much too short to be living someone else’s life.”  –  Kobi Yamada.
