The Truth About Judgments

Feb 11 2012 Published by under Forgiveness, Judgments, Self-Awareness, Understanding

The intensity of the judgments you have about others reveals how strongly you judge yourself for the same offenses. To demonstrate, next time one pops up, insert your own name in place of theirs (‘Joe is mean’ turns in to ‘I am mean’) Can you see the truth of this? The very thought that ‘Joe is mean’ is actually you having a mean thought about Joe. Just like you learned in kindergarten…

What you say is what you are.

Attention is Powerful

Feb 10 2012 Published by under Acceptance, Attention, Choices, Focus, Intention, Perception, Understanding

What you focus your energy on determines the results. Focus on a fear, you feel anxiety. Concentrate on a problem, it becomes magnified. Contemplate your love, it grows. Search for a solution, you find it. Only you control the direction of your attention.

Right?

If someone’s behavior is bugging you, remember that your reaction is based on the way you’re framing the situation. Others may see no problem. Whatever the ultimate truth, you’ve got several options: 1) ask them to change; 2) distance yourself; or 3) find a way to accept them. You have every right to feel the way you do…

So do they.

Merci

Growth Through Fire

Feb 07 2012 Published by under Acceptance, Self-Awareness, Understanding, Wisdom

If you want to step up to the next level in any area of your life, you have to face and change whatever thinking is keeping you where you are now. It’s not always comfortable or pleasant, but it’s the fire that makes the metal strong.

Forge ahead.

Merci
