Right Direction

-


We all have this sort of sixth sense within us when making decisions.  Women tend to be more attuned to it.  In a fast paced society, very few of us take the time to make decisions. . .let me correct myself here.  Very few of us take the time to make the RIGHT decisions.  We have become a knee-jerk society full of impulses deemed as happiness.  It is conditioned happiness!  Just because it makes us happy does not make it right.  Wouldn't it be nice to have a more abundant flow of happiness based on right decisions?  Here are four questions to aide you in making the RIGHT decisions:


  1. Is it the truth?  The heart has a way of telling us whether it is true or not.  My priest once told me if I had problems hearing my heart it was best to ask before I went to bed.  Then, when I wake with no outside noise or societal influence; I could hear the answer.  It usually comes to us when our whole self is the quietest.  I tend to wake up at least 15-30 minutes before I know I have to get up just to tune in to my inner radio.
  2. Is it fair to all concerned?  Being fair does not just include the other parties but yourself.  Doing right for all parties will help you be comfortable in the decision and go down the right path.
  3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?  This has to be one of the most important questions to ask.  Life is about the relationships we build and should push toward a win-win situation every time [or get as close as possible].  Start today and build goodwill and friendships; not more walls. . .
  4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?  Final question in our path to the right decision and enlightenment.  The truth will set you free!
Tune into your sixth sense.  Always remember we are a conditioned society.  We are the only ones' who can do something about it.  Take time to react using the four questions above.  This will help us to be more aware of the truth within us and make sense of the world around us.  Be prepared to make the right decision which is usually down a path less traveled.  There will be a virtuous integrity that radiates within you when truth is your path. . . lead your heart there!

Say A Little Prayer For Me

It was a busy day for The Gym as it began well before sunrise.  Lana Hofman, Erica Cobb, and Jesse Lehmen head to Chicago, IL with their coach, Chris Williamson, and The Gym support team to compete at NPC Junior Nationals.  Upon sending them off, Erica met me with a gleam in her eye and a huge smile.  "I just want Saturday to get here.  I'm feeling really good."  It was refreshing to see how pumped she was. What most people do not understand is this show is a qualifier for your Pro Card and by two weeks out; your body and mind are usually fighting themselves.  They ache, feel sick, mentally & physcially are drained, and sometimes fight to keep motivated.  It takes a lot for these competitors to compete let alone compete nationally.  I commend these athletes for their time commitment, their motivation even if they have a few doubts, and their willingness to be vulnerable in front of thousands of people.  They are some...
