October 27th, 2007: Thoughts for the day

Life doesn't require that we be the best, only that we try our best.

All the forum BROTHA AND SISTA'S DO! ​



Keep your self burning BRIGHT:

Each one of us has a fire in our heart for something. It's our goal in life to find it and to keep it lit.


==========================================================

Learn from your mistakes and move forward with your lesson:

(Chillen)



Look at life through the windshield, not the rear-view mirror​

==========================================================

Dont let anything overcome you, dont let anything beat you, use the power of your brain to overpower, and action to subdue the problem:


Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death

(Unknown)

==========================================================

Making errors are not bad if you adapt and overcome them. Learn from them.

Experience is the name every one gives to their mistakes.

(Oscar Wilde)

==========================================================

The way you think about your problems and subsequently react determines many things:

The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live.

(Whittmore)

==========================================================
Live and breathe your goals and be appropriately OBSESSED and do not accept anything LESS:

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, that is way great spiritual giants are produced.

(Unknown)

==========================================================

Our attitudes control our lives. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force.

(Brandi)

==========================================================


Jim Rohn:
You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.

==========================================================

Dont be afraid brotha and sista's, engross yourself in your goals be your goal......see yourself there.......

Become so wrapped up in something that you forget to be afraid.

==========================================================

Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of the goal-a commitment to excellence-that will enable you to attain the success you seek.

==========================================================


Life is 10 percent what you make it and 90 percent how you take it.

(Adolf Hitler)-------->hmmm.....this is an interesting comment from him

==========================================================

Dont let this happen to you!

Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.

==========================================================

Life is like a blanket too short. You pull it up and your toes rebel, you yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder; but cheerful folks manage to draw their knees up and pass a very comfortable night.

Marion Howard

==========================================================

Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can.

Danny Kaye

==========================================================

We are born wet, naked, and hungry. Then things get worse.


Author Unknown

(No wonder the author is unknown.......he is still all wet....)

==========================================================

The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.

Henry David Thoreau

(My fav dude)

==========================================================

To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.

Reba McEntire

==========================================================

[Psychoanalysis] is not the only way to resolve inner conflicts. Life itself still remains a very effective therapist.

Karen Horney, Our Inner Conflicts, 1945

==========================================================



All of you mean a lot to me.

I want all of your dreams and hope to be real.

You have to work for them as some of them will not come easy.

Keep pusing forward and keep learning about life and yourself and you will succeed in the things you desire.




I wish all of you the best each and every day.........

On Learning to Do Better​


I walk down the street.
There is a hole.
I don't see it.
I fall in.
It isn't my fault.
It takes a very long time to get out.

I walk down the same street.
There is still a deep hole.
I pretend not to see it.
I fall in.
I pretend it's still not my fault.
It takes a long time to get out.

I walk down the same street.
There is still the same deep hole.
I see it.
I fall in anyway.
It's a habit.
I get out quicker this time.

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole.
I see it.
I walk around it.
I don't fall in.

I walk down a different street.

Portia Nelson


==========================================================

We all must learn from our errors in life...........

The Rules for Being Human ​


You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire period this time around.

You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a fulltime informal school called life.

Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant and stupid.

There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error, experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately "works."

A lesson is repeated until learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.

Learning lessons does not end. There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive there are lessons to be learned.

"There" is no better than "here." When your "there" has become a "here" you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."

Others are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.

What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.

Your answers lie inside you. The answer to life's questions lie inside you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.

This will often be forgotten, only to be remembered again.
==========================================================

YES BABY...........Read that TWICE!



Best wishes to all of you!

What is Maturity​



Knowing myself.

Asking for help when I need it and acting on my own when I don't.

Admitting when I'm wrong and making amends.

Accepting love from others, even if I'm having a tough time loving myself.

Recognizing that I always have choices, and taking responsibility for the ones I make.

Seeing that life is a blessing.

Having an opinion without insisting that others share it.

Forgiving myself and others.

Recognizing my shortcomings and my strengths.

Having the courage to live one day at a time.

Acknowledging that my needs are my responsibility.

Caring for people without having to take care of them.

Accepting that I'll never be finished -- I'll always be a work-in-progress
==========================================================


All of you are the BEST.........




Best wishes to ALL OF YOU!

Comes the Dawn​


After awhile you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
And company doesn't mean security.
And you begin to understand that kisses aren't contracts
And presents aren't promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head held high and your eyes wide open.
With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child.
You learn to build your roads
On today because tomorrow's ground
Is too uncertain for plans, and futures have
A way of falling down in midflight.
After awhile you learn that even sunshine
Burns if you get too much.
So you plant your own garden and decorate
Your own soul, instead of waiting
For someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure,
That you really are strong.
And you really do have worth.
And you learn and learn...and you learn
With every goodbye you learn.

(Veronica A.)

=========================================================


Best wishes to you!

Insights and Wisdom from Dick Olney​


"There is only one wound of the mental body, and that is the wound of self-criticism or self-judgment"

"Self-criticism or self-judgment is self-hatred. It will always hurt you. There is no exception to that."

"One definition of insanity is to do something for twenty years that has not worked, and then do it again as if it will work."

"To see what you are not is most important. Then what you are will naturally emerge."

"The goal of a good therapist is to help someone wake up from the bad dream that they are their self-image."

"Your thoughts come automatically. It is to the extent you identify with them that they make you their slave. You become the mistress of your thoughts, not when you can control the machine, but when you do not identify with it."

"Emotion will not drive you crazy. What will drive you crazy is the fear of emotion."


===============================================================




ROCK ON!

"The shell must break before the bird can fly." ​

==========================================================

"If you bring forth what is within you, it will heal you. And if you do not bring forth what is within you, it will destroy you."

==========================================================

I should be content
to look at a mountain
for what it is
and not as a comment
on my life

(David Ignatow)
==========================================================

Your Inner Being​


Your Inner Being is always guiding you toward what you are wanting. It is never protecting you from something else.

Your Inner Being would want you to manifest everything that you decide that you want. Your Inner Being would want you to know that you have value and the ability to have or be or do anything. Your Inner Being would want you to fulfill every wish and whim that you could identify.

==========================================================


ALL OF YOU have this INNER BEING............ROCK IT!





Best wishes to all of you!

Are we what we think, lets see:


The thoughts that you think, regarding those things that you want, set into motion the creation, and eventual fulfillment, of that which you want. And likewise, the thoughts that you think, regarding those things that you do not want, set into motion the creation, and eventual fulfillment, of that which you do NOT want.


The thoughts that you set forth in combination with great emotion are the most powerful of your thoughts.


Understand that all thoughts create -- and the more emotion that is present at the time that a thought is set in motion, the faster the creation will be received -- and as frequent thought is given in any direction, without the hindrance of negative thought, there is certain creation, eventually.


Your emotions are not from your physical world. They come forth from the inner world and are directly communicated to you from your Inner Being.


As you are feeling positive emotion - such as love, peace, happiness, joy, excitement, exhilaration ... it is your Inner Being communicating to you in that moment that you are feeling the emotion - that your thoughts are in harmony with that which you are wanting, As you are experiencing negative emotion - such as fear or doubt, anger, hatred, jealousy, stress, guilt, anxiety .. it is a communication from your Inner Being telling you that in that moment - that which you are focused upon is not in harmony with what you are wanting.


A belief is nothing more than a thought that you have thought before, that you continue to think.


Your thoughts are powerful creators, and your words are even more powerful than your thoughts, but your actions are more powerful than your words or your thoughts.


==========================================================



You are what you THINK...............ROCK ON.........



Best wishes

A New Beginining:​





Do not worry. Your experience, your hard work, your growth, is not being wasted, for your Inner Beings accumulates every particle of every experience that you have ever lived, or that you are now living.


The process of Deliberate Creation is twofold: It involves the thought that you project, and the corresponding feeling that comes forth. You offer the thought from your conscious, physical perspective -- and your Inner Being offers you a corresponding feeling. Therefore, you are literally co-creating: You, the physical you, and you, the inner, Non-physical you.


To stand in your now, looking forward with deliberate intent and anticipation of what is to come, is infinitely more satisfying than to stand in your now, looking back, retracing your steps as to how you got where you are.


You can move much more swiftly and effectively toward the joyous success you seek in life by giving your attention and emphasis to the way you want to feel, or to your state of being, rather than to the action.

==========================================================



ROCK ON!

Just shy of 175 today (actually just shy 174.9.......HEHEHE)

All weights on all lifts are sky rocketing.......

Im gonna put my current working rep weights up today, at 174lbs (Im UP about 16 lbs, or a tad over 2lbs per week...spot on projections)

Im out growing my medium shirts. I have put on a small amount of fat (not much, but this is expected, waist is at 32" up from 29"/30")

Armed with my prior experience of cutting.....its a piece of FRICKEN CAKE.

My 46 year old body will happily pack it on and take it off (except for the last small portion----but I know what to do with that now...as May-June proved to be beneficial and a worthwhile experience on what to do)


My aging body surely suprises me; I wish had known my genetics 20 years earlier.......


EVERYONE ROCK!
