With a steaming mug of hot herbs in my quiet enclave, it is wisdom I seek.
We alone have the power…it’s inside, of course y’all know this.
Thought is a potent radiating energy. So when we aim thoughts, lovingly and happily, accomplishing what we want to be, do or have, after overcoming hurdles, set-backs, character assassinations, money deprivation, gender bias, race prejudice, or not hanging with the “correct” political or religious group, then we know it was our own choices, beliefs and attitudes coming from inside ourselves and we were responsible for all the efforts we have put forth that have successful results, that we take kudos and credit for.
The great soul, Mahatma Gandhi said, “Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny.” This truism has been said many times, in many ways, over thousands of years. Our life, our love, our beauty is an inside job. To say what you mean and mean what you say, is therefore good advice.
Who’s to blame for our failures, poorness or lack of any kind? Have we allowed others to do our thinking for us? Has our total lack of efforts to take the high road, to stay focused on integrity and goodness, been the real cause of our non-success?
People can encourage you to be good, or to do bad, to succeed, be afraid, or hate, however, despite all influences, you ultimately must choose, you are the only one that can choose your “inside-thoughts” on any given area of your life. Love? Success? Just ask, and you will receive.
“Yes, I know sweetheart, that you are not happy with the going-on’s in your life, however, since you are 100% responsible, YOU can fix this.” …CLICK! “Are you there?” Feeling guilty vs being responsible for your life are not the same.
This has been a deb’s witty ditty on deb’s ditty blog.
