Fear, Worry & Faith..


Life is tough,  ruthless and a bully. This is a valid fact. For every dream or desire that you have and want fulfilled, you must first be willing and ready to fight. There is no other way. Desire is not enough. Most of us are wishful thinkers and so naive to expect that life will deliver our expectations without any struggle or contention. What an illusion!

But in the midst of this, one of the greatest discoveries, you can make in life is to find out that you can do what you were afraid you couldn't do. 

The fear to do it, is faith in reverse. The worst liars in the world are your own fears. Worry is the traitor in our camp that dampens our power and weakens our aim. Worry is faith in the negative, trust in the unpleasant assurance of disaster and belief in defeat. 

Worry is a magnet that attracts negative conditions. Faith is a more powerful force that creates positive circumstances. Worry is wasting today's time to clutter up tomorrow's opportunities with yesterday's troubles. 

Almost 99% of the things that we worry about don't happen. Fear is a poor chisel to carve out your tomorrow's. Faith is daring to do something regardless of the consequence. Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your power. Pray for power equal to your tasks. 

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss it, you will land among stars. You have to think big to be big. The impossible is what nobody can do until someone does. Progress always involve risk. You can't steal second base if your foot is still on first. 

Do you look at the horizon and see an oppurtunity or do you look into the distance and fear a problem? He who does not dare would not get his share. When you dare for nothing, you should hope for nothing. I dare you to live by faith!

Refuse To Live a Targetless Life

The ability to set a goal is the master skill to success. Success is goals, all else is commentary. You cannot hit a target you cannot see, if you don't have one. One of the greatest mistakes and a waste of life is living without a clear purpose or goal. A life without clear goals is a life doomed to failure.  Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved has already defined his own limitation. So the clearer you are about your goal, the more rapidly you'll attract people and circumstances into your life to help make that goal a reality.  Most people have their eye on the wrong goal. Is more money, a higher position or more influence your goal? These are not goals but are the by-products of true goals. We should work to become, not acquire.  Measure wealth not by things you have, but by the things you have for which you would not take money. Happiness is not a reward - it's a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment - it's result. ...

Your Potential Is Your Purpose

Dr Myles Munroe shares a powerful idea that I would like to share with you. He says that the wealthiest places in the world are not the gold mines of South America or the oil fields of Iraq or Iran. They're not the diamond mines of South Africa or the banks of the world. The wealthiest place on the planet is just down the road. It is the cemetery. There lie buried, companies that were never started, inventions that were never made, best-selling books that were never written and masterpieces that were never painted. In the cemetery is buried the greatest treasure of untapped potential. There is a treasure within you that must come out. It is your potential. Don’t go to the grave with your treasure still within you. "There lies within each person a huge reservoir of untapped potential for achievement, success, happiness, health and greater prosperity. It's like an ocean unsailed, a new continent unexplored, a world of possibilities waiting to be released and channeled ...

The Obstacles in Our Way

In ancient times, a king had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king’s wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the big stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. On approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. As the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the king indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many others never understand. Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve one’s condition.
