Be ready to fail, understand this is where you get wisdom. Embrace the unknown and capitalize on the benefits. Surround yourself with people that support you. Set small goals toward a bigger goal, so that bigger goal doesn't seem out of your scope. Remember you have the power to live a life you want. It is up to you to take action. Did you know your body releases adrenaline in uncomfortable situations. So step out of your comfort zone, let your body help you. Consistency is key. You won't do it tomorrow, unless you do it today.

Abundance… My life didn't start that way. As I got more wisdom and matured, I found that it was how complex I was making things that made them worse. It was the simplicity of my adventures that made them extraordinary. Having this avenue of events gives me more wisdom in allowing me to see other aspects of the rewarding adventures of life. It wasn't until I surrendered to the Holy Spirit that I found peace. It was then I realized that peace could only be found in Him. I haven't discovered my purpose, but I am slowly finding my interest. I do like writing. I will see how far this can bring me. For now, I see it helping me to instruct my children. One day, it will prove to help them well in school and life! I really want to improve, not for me, but for my kids. I know I won't live forever. I want to pass on all that I have learned. Everyday is a new chance to learn more. Don't take life's challenges as a stone wall but a hurtle. If you haven't reached that glass ceiling, then put your head down and keep pushing. I am grateful for my pursuit and development of my relationship with God over the years. Before my relationship with Him was forced by going to church on Sundays. Now I am having my own thoughts about it. Being connected to Him is something I now want. It did start from my Mom introducing me to the concept of Him and now it is so much more. He is able to give me perspective and freed me from society’s B.S. God has given me much in life. When the accident first happened I asked God for help and he guided me to my recovery and eventual success. He also gave me the little things in life. Financial security allows me to live a comfortable lifestyle, and also provide my family with one as well. On a deeper level, he gives me air to breathe, food to eat and a home to live. He allows me to have intuition to know what is good for my body. On this note, He is giving me the strength and perseverance to quit smoking cigarettes. Be thankful for all He gives you big and small. PLEASE SHARE YOUR ANSWER IN THE COMMENT SECTION BELOW by clicking on the word "comment." Part 3: Communication As we become more mature our communication develops. With greater intention, we develop a steady approach that leads to a more enjoyable and balanced adventure. We use the events of life as inspiration. This helps us develop resilience, finding a sense of self and purpose, and then adapting to life. We can only adapt by using resilience, so don't despair when life knocks you down. Live through the challenges as effectively as possible. Expand using the experience as a channel of growth. Use the Advent, the birth of Christ, for strength. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Part 2: ForgivenessUse openness in your exploration to find resolve in forgiveness and the purification process to make sure your intentions are unadulterated, in kindness.
Ask for help from God. We are all his children. He only wants the best for us. Take time out of your day to pray and ask for guidance in all things, Amen. Part 1: He works through usHe is good, everything is going to be all good. He works everything in our favor. Amen. Yes I have a TBI, DAI(Diffuse axonal injury) through Him all things are possible.That has made this process challenging having a TBI, DAI. Through Him all things are possible, when you think of hope you should be thinking of God. God is hope. I keep Him in my mind as we all should, be more open to His guidance. In our lives we are all trying to find our purpose, stop “trying” and let God guide us. He has a much better plan. You will not know it, but you can trust it’s better than what you come up with. It is shaped. It is the trials that you go through and circumstances that shape who you become.
What I have discovered is not to be too hard on yourself, because I like who I have become. God poured me from heaven. I declare it was strength he poured. I don’t want to make it seem that I am saying I am strength because everything I am was given to me by Him. I have intuition only an 80 year old might have, but not the physical strength of an 80 year old man. He has allowed me to be in a place where I’ve been able to get strong. Remember, you want to get strong now, and not wait until you are 80. Take advantage of today. It takes time to get strong. Give yourself time to achieve greatness. What is your end goal? COMMENT BELOW-> I was reminded of my mother's words, "Let it roll off your back, like water on a duck's back." My trainer called this morning. My first thought was, why is he calling me….? After talking to him he told me our session had to be canceled. I was laughing not because he canceled, but because of why he had to cancel. His car, a Camaro, was stolen right out of his driveway. I started cracking up. Not to add insult to injury. At least he had a good reason. I told him he had no way of getting to me. He started laughing as well. I just thought I would share this story as a way to remind us all how someone else always has it worse. We sometimes get caught only thinking of ourselves and how things affect us, and stuff like this reminds you that everyone has “shit” happen all the time. At least my Camaro wasn’t stolen today. Let me know what you think in the comments. If you were ever put in a situation like this, what did/would you do? “I used to be impatient. I am learning patience.” Even though I have not reached 80 or 90 years old, He has provided me with wisdom and understanding. Patience is one of those things. It is not just me, it is Him working through me.
It was a long process, going back and forth with my doctor, case manager, and everything in between. Patience has played a big part in helping me with this. Although I'm unsure about not being able to go home, I am finding grace throughout the process. I humble myself in the process so impatience doesn’t turn to anger. In moments of frustration, with learning patience, I walk away. I collect myself. This is important so the fuse does not reach the bomb. So anger doesn't fuel my anxiety. So I do not explode. Patience stops the bad habit and breaks this chain reaction. I can instead meditate and pray. It helps me stay grounded. This coincides with patiences. Learning these techniques, and having this internal conversation with my maker, helps me stay more calm and have more patience. Overall it makes me a more pleasant person to be around. Patience is learned but it is not mastered. You are always growing deeper with patience. **COMMENT BELOW |
