Change Your Approach and Perspective
I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted but believe me when I say I’ve been busy!!!! Even so, I felt compelled to write this blog today because of my inherent belief in the power of thoughts. I’ve been doing lots of speaking engagements lately and it seems a good deal of the people I’ve met are experiencing some type of challenge in their life whether it be the fear of losing a job or the struggles of dealing with a child. Many of the people I’ve met seem trapped in the moment and unable to move beyond the challenge. While I’ know it’s a bit cliche, the most important thing I can offer or advise is to find the positiveness or the lesson in the challenge. A challenge is only painful, stressful or any of those things because there’s a lesson we’re suppose to learn. So here’s my advice to anyone enduring a challenge or a struggle:
1. Ask yourself what’s the lesson you’re suppose to learn. Be ready, willing and open to accept the lesson.
2. Pray to God for guidance. I know a lot of times we look to the natural world to resolve our problems, but the power of God is so awesome and overwhelming and he can give you resolution and provide you clarity and guidance that you can’t find by looking in the natural world.
3. Change your thoughts. The power of belief is so awesome. You really do manifest in your physical world what you’re thinking about. So if you’re thinking life is tough, this manifests itself in your physical world. So try changing your perspective. See the challenge not as an obstacle but as learning experience.
In the end, remember God gives you no more than you can handle and through him all things are possible and can be conquered.
