Is It Wrong To Want More?

As I sit and write this to the sound of crickets and a delicious aroma of jasmine filling the warm September night air, I ponder on why it is that I could possibly want more than this. I am immediately transported back to a time when experiencing this was but a distant dream and I smile as I remember the things that in the back of my mind I always knew; that there is more to us than our physical bodies and that you will never get it done and you can never get it wrong and that with the passage of time I forgot this truth and then I remembered it and then I forgot it and then………..a little bit I guess like going to sleep and then awakening and then going back to sleep again.

Although I know to some people this may seem like nonsense, I am a firm believer that we create our own reality, and the reason I know this is that I know that I created everything that is in my life now and the reason I know this is that I can remember putting the dream together so well.

It was such an enormous relief for me when I realised that we will never get it all done and that to want more from life is our natural state. There will never be a time when we will be “sorted” because when we reach that place we always thought “sorted” was, and we may be happy settling there for a while, we will always be looking to the next thing, we see that in our children and it is true for us too. It’s funny and strange when you live a life that was once a dream to you and still you find yourself in a situation where you want more and you feel a tinge of guilt because this was once something you wanted and yearned for so much and here you are saying; yes, this is nice but now I want….

What I have come to believe over time is that in essence we are growth seeking beings that have come here to grow, to expand and to experience more of ourselves so it’s natural for us to want more and the best part about it is that is that it’s okay. If we stood still and never looked beyond where we are we would never grow, new inventions and new ideas would never come about and we would cease to evolve.

Some people might say I am happy where I am, I am not wanting for anything more. But I tell you this my friends in the privacy of your own thoughts you will be thinking about the things you don’t want and in doing this you set in motion what you do want whether you are consciously aware of it or not.

So what we need to do is to take our power back, to stop blaming this person or that person or our parents or the government, and take more responsibility for the life we want to create for ourselves. Sometimes in our lives things happen that turn us upside down. Why do these things happen that we say we don’t want in our life?  Why is it that some people seem to live such incredibly prosperous and happy lives while others seem to struggle and just barely make it past the minimum wage or even worse settle for what they have, never understanding that we all have enormous potential locked within us to experience life the way we are supposed to.

Over the next few weeks I want to expand further on the subject of how we can create the life we choose and how we can create the life we want. As I embark myself on creating the next chapter in my life my sincerest hope is that you will come here often and that you will reap tremendous benefit from what I will be sharing here over the coming weeks.

Life is supposed to be good for you and to want more is reviving and rejuvenating. The easiest way to enjoy it fully is every day little by little to flow with the stream and not against it. The ride downstream can have it’s obstacles and you need to master how to get round them instead of letting them stopping you in your tracks, once you master this the ride downstream will be fast and fun and in the end you will realise that it really is much easier than you thought.

Be blessed my friends and please share this with others by pressing the facebook like button above or sharing it on other social networks :-)

In appreciation of you all

The Secret Of Success

by admin on July 14, 2011

The late Earl Nightingale from the Nightingale Conant Corporation called it ‘The Strangest Secret’. Strange because he couldn’t understand why the secret of success was a secret!

The law of the Universe tell us that it requires no more effort to aim high in life than to aim low, that there is no difference with taking on a small idea or a big idea and yet only 5% of people achieve true success.

So lets define success first and I think Ralph Waldo Emerson states it beautifully in this quote;

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded”

The secret that Earl Nightingale was alluding to is that man becomes what he thinks about and we’re not just talking here just about positive thinking. So why is it that so few achieve any real success and why is there such a disparity between what people intend to do and what they actually achieve. Earl quotes Rallo May form his book Man’s search for himself that ;

“the opposite of courage is not cowardice, it is conformity”

and so it is that one the main reasons that so many fail to achieve success is that they conform to their situation running around acting like everybody else and not knowing why.

So what is the key? In a nutshell I do believe that the essential elements of success are; Vision – Purpose – Passion – Goals.

Vision – You must have a very clear idea of what you want. You must be able to feel it and believe it is yours.

Purpose – We were all born with unique talents and gifts and it is up to each one of us to find out what we are good at and why you are here. From these specific talents you will be able to determine your definite purpose.

Passion – Once you have your vision and purpose clearly defined, fall in love with your idea. Remember the first time you fell in love? you couldn’t put that person out of your mind and you felt butterflies in your stomach whenever you thought about seeing that person again. Put that same feeling and passion into your idea. When you do this you will find that you will stop pushing and you will find that it will guide you.

Goals – You’ve got to know where you’re going and an idea of how you are going to get there. I say an idea because sometimes people get so caught up in plotting their journey that they never begin, just have the foundational elements in place and BEGIN.

Let’s not forget the power of our minds in this equation either. Learn to master you mind, most of the problems people have are mental in nature, conduct a bit of mental housecleaning to sharpen your senses and clarify your mind. Being aware and trying to change the way you think may require a lot of effort, but it is highly constructive. It will result in an increase of your power and bring about a life that is fulfilling, meaningful and successful for you.

I found this old recording of Earl Nightingale on the secret of success on You Tube. Watch and enjoy!
