MY JOURNEY
LOOKING DEEPER WITHIN
Today, I felt it necessary to speak about the person within us that gets very little to no attention. What constitutes living true to ones self? How do we know at the end of our lives we'll have fulfillment? What could we do in our daily lives to feed the desires of our inner being?
We cannot become fully functioning in our lives without acquiring the knowledge of who we are. Much needed information comes from truly knowing yourself. What makes you feel deeply satisfied inside? What are your passions? What do you desire above all things in life? What are your true fears? What buried emotions from the distant past erode your present judgment?
These are questions we should be able to readily answer. Yet they evade us. Taking time to be alone with yourself and talking over these subjects can prove to be very beneficial. How much time does it take? It can be an hour or two a day. In my own experience, I sat for 5 hours unwilling to move until I got the answers I was looking for. I discovered many truths of myself and also of life. After months of training my mind in this way not only did I have a clearer perspective of my life, but answers started to come quicker. Any questions arising from my day-to-day life began to unfold before me on that very day. Soon the answers came within the hour.
I can't express how desperately needed this is amongst our generation. In my imagination, I see a parade of people walking together. They seem to know happiness, because they have such laughter. I then, realize they are a group of fools with no direction. They have gathered into a great multitude, those that love to follow, but didn't have a leader. Those who never understood their purpose, wandered aimlessly into the desert. When they come to their senses they won't know their location or how to return from where they came. Even if they knew their way back, time would not permit another lengthy journey.
Take time out of your day to get to know yourself better. Trust me, you'll see the difference.

SOUND PHYSICAL HEALTH - DAY 2
MY JOURNEY
SPIRITUAL FOOD
There's another realm that makes up who we are and that's the spirit. We can eat healthy food and feed ourselves positive thoughts and still not be completely healthy. The spirit man within us also requires food to stay healthy. Spiritual food uplifts our spirit, and in turn our spirit produces happiness.
There are plenty resources to find Spiritual Food, the best being the Bible. Words of Life will generate life within us and spring us to new heights. It shows us what's possible and causes our hope for greater things to flourish. It calls upon our faith which is so important in any endeavor in life. Faith causes a man to dedicate his life to his work like Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Napoleon Hill, etc. Men like these gave many years of their lives to create what would come to be known as their life's work.
Throughout the history of the United States, the leaders have been men of faith. Faith in God causes the heart to seek peace with his fellow man. It causes our perception of life to widen, allowing us to see a bigger picture. It'll cause you to think of eternity, and thus deepening your pattern of thought.
We all display a type of faith on a daily basis when we work without being paid up front. We have faith that our employer is able to satisfy his obligation. We do this without questioning it. Nine hours of your life dedicated to a person of business that promises to pay you at the end of the week, two weeks, or end of the month. If we put the same faith into something greater we just might be motivated to chase after greater things.
Honestly ask yourself, am I where I thought I would be, in life at this age, when I was in high school? Chances are life is a little different than what we imagined. This can be identified and traced to the inner workings of faith in our mind. We lived into the limited reality we felt was possible at the time we made our decisions. Step back and take a look at everything you've learn from life. Look through all of your experiences. Now ask yourself, if I could go back would I do things the same way? If you're like me the answer is No. This is a good thing! We now have the opportunity to change our lives right now to incorporate all of our findings into our decisions.
We can become that person we always thought we would be! Make the decision to make a change in your life. There's no better time than now!
