The Stark Reality Of Pursuing Success
Author : Donald Yartes
Life is only a perception
Can everyone be successful? No! A stark reality is, Life is a perception of who is living it. Anything else is simply a fairy tale and not grounded in reality. I make the distinction because many people are living a fairy tail life every day. They’re always dreaming of success but never seem to achieve it. There’s a difference between dreaming and imagination. A person who is a dreamer exist in a lofty world of make believe, a person who has an active imagination lives in a world of change. The first is passive the latter is aggressive.
Passive people hang onto I’m going to do it, and as soon as I’m ready, but never seem to make a move for action. There’s always an excuse an explanation, for failing to bring their dreams into reality. When I was in boot camp, we learned the phrase, “no excuses sir”. There was no excuse for failure. Failure was because we didn’t perform our duties to our full potential. We were the cause of failure, not circumstance or environment. We had the ability and it was up to us to exercise it correctly to achieve success.
Imaginative people, on the other hand, remodel the world. Their imagination is a driving force that propels them into the future. The problem is, psychotic people also have an active imagination and believe they are also progressive.
In any case weather it be a dreamer or imaginative person they must come to terms with the reality of their situation. They must realize right from wrong and exercise their full facilities for success.
Good and bad complement each other
While, most people know there is good side, they are all too willing to believe the bad side of any situation. When confronted with decision self-doubt creeps into the thought process and the thought or idea becomes, in jeopardy of failure. Faith or assurance is imperative because it is the first step toward action; no action can be completed without faith in its completion. It is when doubt is eliminated that true faith becomes reality. Faith is knowing an end result as a truth. Again, "if you can't believe it you can't conceive it or receive it."
It takes believable action
Every action requires believability before it can become an action. This can pertain to negative as well as positive, the law does not know one from the other. It is your responsibility to experience the law correctly. I have said over and over, use the law to knowingly bring harm to others or to the material world and you will bring the wrath at the judgment. This is not a warning it is fact. Remember, one action gives birth to another action of opposites. In all but this case the opposite action is neutralized by the positive action. To bestow harm is to receive harm. Expansion of the spirit can only come through positive means. Deity expansion can only come through expansion of the soul. You will come to understand this in time as you realize more of who and why you are.
Enlightenment Comes from Inside
To bring enlightenment to an inquiring fellow being is to expand your soul. Good, is the positive step of an action. Good thought is fuel to the soul. When you understand yourself you will illuminate the soul and others will seek you for their enlightenment. Remember, in this world to love your neighbor as yourself first and always. To love your neighbor is to love and know another soul. Do not let the mind confuse you, spirit of the soul, is of another plane while the mind of the body is of earth. Always remember the two are not the same yet the soul depends on the mind of the body for recognition while on earth.
Many forces guide your life
Each person is subject to certain laws and forces of nature that justify their existence. These laws are for self experiencing and control. Here are three such laws;
1. The force of Ethics – Righteousness
Ethics The rules or standards which govern the conduct of a person or the members of a profession. But who sets the rules. Usually the society in which you live sets the standards of acceptable behavior. Good ethics prohibits any action which would harm another person or thing. Cheating, Lying, accepting payment for favor, bribes and so on, all are clearly unethical. Good ethics mirrors the actions of Jesus Christ and guides a person toward righteousness.
2. The force of Health – Longevity
God created humans to last. Through lifestyle and bad choices, people have given up years of life. Health is about quality of life. When does a person die? When they stop breathing? Not necessarily so. A person can be dead and still be alive. Dead in spirit, dead in functionality, or dead in moral fiber. Health involves the physical self, the mental self and the spiritual self. These elements must be in harmony before a person is really alive. If you are physically disabled, non of the others matter. If you are mentally impaired, then you can’t function properly, and physical won’t matter. If you are dead in moral fiber, than your prospective will be twisted and you won’t comprehend life as it should be.
3. The force of Social Station
Acceptance Everyone wants to be accepted. It’s the need for social order that drives people to be cooperative. War prisoners discovered when put into solitude they very quickly broke down. Man is a social being that strives for recognition. He/she enjoys a pat on the back from their peers, for their efforts. The I syndrome places man at the center of his/her existence. This was the first sin, man turned away from God toward self, thus creating a broken relationship. Social Station is only important as a worldly view.
Keeping track
How will you expand your new lease on life, keeping in mind the external forces brought to bear? What will you do to take appropriate and effective action?
If you wrote an incident log, would it identify key components in your life by completion dates as well as the progression of each segment? To be sure that you are thinking of as many possibilities as possible, your incident log should bring all ideas into one possibility. The next segment of dealing with success and the inner person, will delve deeper into certain laws of temptation.
Happy Trails
