Start To Finish - #IdeasStation5

Molweni iFamily Yami E Ntle!

Greetings from Tshwane on yet another blazing hot day! The heat is really coming down these days here and it is something to behold.

I pray that you are awesome where you are and growing with me as we continue this fantastic series.

In the last post, we were introduced to yet another important ingredient to add to our mix of success, being 'Delight'. 

We also discussed that the lack thereof in oneself is really unfruitful and won't yield the kind of results we should attain.

Let's go a little deeper into this and then move out onto the deck to catch our train.

The ever-present google search engine gives these results for the definition of 'Delight"

'Please (someone) greatly', when seeing it in the perspective of a verb; and
'Great Pleasure', as a noun. The noun is the one we are talking about here.
'Pleasure' in its own definition is, 'A feeling of happy satisfaction and enjoyment'

It is rather hard to genuinely commit to a cause that does not delight you in any way. In fact, frustration becomes a constant state of mind and daily activity includes the search for something else.

Now, remember the theme we are dealing with here. Turning thoughts and ideas into channels of prosperity and fulfillment. Where we are now is called #IdeasStation and we are exploring how to bring them to life. For more on this, go ahead and read the previous posts in the series, "Start To Finish"

As you wake up every day to an influx of thoughts and ideas, remember that you are a human being and there are things that delight you and others that you do but they don't bring a smile to your face and fulfillment to your heart. Identifying those that delight you is going to be very important as we continue.

Don't forget about it as we now move out of #IdeasStation onto the train.

Start To Finish - #IdeaStation4

My Beloved Fam!

Greetings to you on this rather hot day in Pretoria.

I thank God for yet another day to share with you as every day passes by.

We have a series to push forward as I hope you remember, and we need to keep at it.

On this train ride, we are still at #IdeasStation and we are getting ready to make our way out onto the train. In the last post in the series, we spoke about the pivotal importance of 'Commitment' to the fruition of our ideas. Without it, there will be no success in getting things done.

Now then, let's add another ingredient that I believe is so key to fueling our commitment to the cause of bringing our ideas to life.

I know many people who go to work, seminars, even visit certain friends and do it because of nothing more than 'Duty'. I have heard some of these phrases a great deal, "I hate my job but I have to pay the bills" or "I would rather be at home watching soccer than to go to this seminar, but if I don't, I will lose my job" or even, "Well, this guy is a pain to be around, but he has a lot of money and I need him to invest in my business"

Although commitment exists in the above examples, it will be pretty short-lived once something else comes along and can provide an alternative to them. Therefore we need to have the addition of "Delight" to our mix.

If you don't 'Delight' in yourself, then committing to anything that comes out of you will be difficult to impossible.

You must find Joy in yourself and therefore in your application to Ideas becoming something more.

#Progression

A Blessed Day To You My Beloved Family And A Glorious New Year!

2018 has come upon us and as is custom with many people around the world, taking stock of the victories and losses of last year need to inform necessary progression for the this new one.

I continue to come across more and more people who shun the notion of “New Year’s Resolution/s” and are increasingly conforming to another, “Whatever Comes, Comes”.

The general reason for this change in ideology is the protection of oneself from dissatisfaction and possible despair from a dashed expectation. Others look at the matter of aiming for the moon and even if missed, they could land among the stars, with a more negative outlook. Instead, what is said today is along the lines of, "Aim wherever you can reach and leave enough room for disappointment".

One can blame this on an ever changing social status quo and the ills that we are facing as a country, or even the families that we come from or our own physical challenges.

The truth is that we can NEVER go beyond our own unique ability to cage ourselves inside of our own perception of ourselves. There are far too many stories of people who overcame their dire circumstances and gained life-altering victories to change their lives, to deny this fact. For this reason, I challenge you my dear fellow human being to take stock of your own perception and opinion of yourself and work out what limitations YOU have placed on YOURSELF that keep you from one of life’s most rewarding state of being, PROGRESSION.

Then take action and remove these from yourself!!!

To God Be The Glory!
