Chance or Purpose
I have always been curious as to how or why?
Have you ever found your self listening to a conversation and wondered
why it seemed so important to those involved.
There seems to be a need for so many humans to know why things are.
We need to rationalize, we need to know.
Have you heard people speaking about success on the internet and
you wanted to know how?
That brings me to a thought.
Would we really care if everything in life truly came by chance?
Would there be a why?
If luck and happenstance were the normal order of things,
would effort ever bring results?
Success is a result of effort not a chance occurrence?
See I don't believe in luck, chance or random circumstance,
and I will tell you why.
Random occurrences do happen as much as good luck being a bonus under the normal sequences of life,
but I wouldn't want to sit around waiting for luck to change a bad time into a good one.
It would mean we have to wait for solutions to arrive
to set a course to live and
not by making them happen for yourself.
You make your own luck
I am sure of that
Call it influential existence if you like.
The happy successful people I know
are not sitting on their hands or their mind waiting for something to occur,
they are totally involved in making results happen.
How do they do that?
Well for one thing they are not WAITING for things to change.
They are courageous about taking a chance at making a motion toward what they want and
then start doing it with spirit and enthusiasm.
If you want to be something, be it!
You can only arrive at your destination by heading toward it!
It seems we humans are capable of being what ever we wish.
Sadly that means we wished ourselves into our present condition,
which means some of us that are unhappy, got there by choice.
Let us consider for a moment what makes us happy.
How many of us choose the circumstances that cause that happiness and
how many wait for it to occur so we can have a good time when it arrives?
Isn't it true that when you find something you enjoy,
you then pursue more of it at every chance you can get?
Why not think of life that way?
Why not consider that life is the happy time and
it can be shaped to be the moment of joy you look forward too?
Why not live life with purpose and not by chance?
Some people would say in response to that "It is too much work!"
Well you could be right if play to you has become work because we are playing at life.
The greatest attribute of our existence is the grand forgiveness we are given by our friends, family and the world itself.
We stumble thousands of times in our lives and we laugh,
our friends laugh and we move on.
We stumble making meals, we stumble building houses, we stumble being a civilization,
yet the only condemnation we get is from people who set themselves up to be superior to us
with no evidence and
sadly our worst critic is........... ourselves.
We are our own worst critic
Did you ever wonder why a person of success appears so strong?
Think about what would make you strong.
Compliments, less criticism and a boldness to continue testing new ideas and
learning by doing without hesitation,
sort of beyond the fear of condemnation for lack of perfection, right?
Who is the critic you most worry about?
I will bet it is you.
You have built in limitations as you have developed what we can call fences or borders,
as you have grown to define yourself
by the things you have decided you don't do well or don't like doing,
as they cause the need for effort and involvement.
Face it. We humans are lazy.
We seek comfort and security while less involvement feels safer than more.
Less participation feels like we are controlling how much we are going to do and
makes us feel like we are in control,
but in truth we are out of life
Hiding off to the side being a watcher not a player.
Do you think maybe you have lost the ability to trust yourself
or fear a change may occur
or that you may grow into something you can't recognize?
Maybe we all fear the future because we have settled on the safety and security of the now.
If you are comfortably waiting for a chance occurrence to make you a success,
you had better bring along some comfortable clothes and some sleeping gear,
because chances are you'll be a sleep when the opportunities come by .
Success is built!
Success is a plan well executed!
Success is you being actively involved at dropping the habits of stagnation and failure aside for better habits.
You will make your own luck
with a good plan and a desire to leave your present condition behind
along with those comfortable clothes and sleeping gear.
It is time for you to wake up with a purpose to succeed!
This is true in business especially if you are an independent
That your vision set your limitations
If you have developed the habit of envisioning a poor outcome then that is what will be achieved!
I'd like to bring you some good news, habits toward success are available here.
