Be Encouraged

Why are you indecisive?

The root of indecision derives from either lack of knowledge or self-confidence. Indecision cripple’s creativity and drowns self-confidence. You cannot build self-confidence when you are not confident in deciding.

How to decide? Find out if “you can’t decide because of lack of knowledge or lack of confidence.” The difference is do you know the pros and cons? If you do then it is a confidence issue. You cannot decide because you are not confident it will work out or not confident of the outcome. The real question is why are you afraid of making a mistake?

AN ODYSSEY

Who am I? This question is crucial, but more importantly the journey. The question really is what journey am I on? A journey is an explanation of who you are. The obstacle and types of people you meet define who you are. Your response and understanding throughout the journey reveal who you are.Being in situations that challenge your mental and feeling is an indicator of what you are. For example, being in a situation where you feel stuck and helpless are indicators and hints that you are indeed an ambitious helpful person. Being in a relationship that drains you is a hint that you are full of life. An issue can’t exist without an answer. You are the answer and the opposite of your “issues”. They are only problems because they are the opposite of you. You are the opposite of your troubling situation and the answer.©2021

Creating

Creation is a powerful thing. We all have this incredible power. Creation comes from the imaginations. Everything that exist comes from the unseen world we create in imagination. Therefore, imagining something is how you create its existence. However. To create something means to build, to setup, to establish. To do these things require an action. So technically you need to create something in the imagination then build it here. In other words, gather a vision then action plan that builds it. You can’t build without a vision of what it is you are building.

Delayed

Your Attitude is Delayed

Mastering patience is a virtue. A virtue that is beneficial toward your character. Understanding patience is the key to understanding yourself, understanding your circumstances, and understanding your next level. Simply put, patience is understanding that what is on the way is delayed. Delayed only because you want it now. But mastering patience is all about understanding and realizing that what you want is “on the way”. The key is knowing It is on the way Therefore, you should focus on not getting upset or frustrated. Frustration only makes one focus on the “delay” rather than the “on the way.”

Mastering patience is mastering your attitude.

The blame game

A lot of people want to blame God for things that are not happening or they don’t feel is happening. But, have we ever took the time to EXPECT it has already happened? Maybe the miracle you are waiting on is waiting on you to see it. God states, “faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” These are things that are not seen by the naked eye.

What is seeing? One definition of seeing is to form a mental picture of i.e. Visualize. When one visualizes and lives out the visual, they internally see beyond their actual physical sight. Then just maybe, you will be able to see the miracle that has been there the whole time. Could this be an example of executing faith? ©2021

Position yourself

Being willing to position yourself for change or an opportunity is important to self-growth and success. Sometimes we have to be willing to do something new and different to enter a new phase to be elevated to a new experience. ©2021

-Position yourself for success-

what is your plan?

The lack of a vision produces hopelessness. Hopelessness is a feeling of despair, meaning lost. You can only be lost if you do not have a vision.

What causes one to have vision? The answer is enlightenment. You need an enlightenment of who you are or who you want to be. Once you understand this, you can develop a vision (Plan) that produces hope which can be your light during hard times.

-Hopelessness is the lack of vision-

What are you committed to?

Why commit to things that only give a temporary result? If you are going to commit to something why not something that makes you grow or develop as a person. For example; why date someone that does not make you grow in anyway. Why be with someone just for company or to fit in? Why not be with someone that wants you to be better in something of importance, such as; health, spirituality, mentally, or family?

When you are on your death bed these are the areas of your life you will judge.

I should have been healthier!

I should have been closer to my family!

I should have been more spiritual!

I could have pushed myself harder!

I should have chased my dreams!

Why commit to someone who do not help you achieve these things?

Genesis 2:18- The lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

Are you fantasizing or are you making it happen?

Obstacles are actually opportunities in disguise. The power of an obstacle is that it causes one to think outside their norm to be able to overcome. All obstacles can be defeated. You have to develop the mindset that you will not allow a small stumbling block prevent you from achieving what you are after. Many make the mistake assuming an obstacle means it cannot happen or they can’t do it but that is further from the truth. An obstacle actually means its obtainable but only if you want it bad enough. Look at it as a test to determine if this is truly something you want. That’s the difference between someone who wants something and someone that has to have it. A would like to have person only fantasize. A I have to have it person makes it possible.

Your Purpose is In the Vision

Vision gives power and hope. Vision is motivation. Vision gives perspective and clarity.
One of human’s basic needs is a sense of belonging. You can’t have a sense of belonging if you don’t have a vision of who you are or what you want to become. Vision is crucial to the quality of life.

Vision gives purpose which produces hope. Hope is the core of humans. Without hope there is only death. Death spiritually, or physically. We are meant to grow and have perspective. Vision is what motivates motivation. Motivation evolves unto hope. © Anastasia Chapman
