What We Believe


What We Believe

From where did you get your beliefs?  Did some coach, parent, teacher, politician hand them to you?

And have you held to those beliefs all these years later, never examining them, never questioning them? 

Authority figures love to tell you what to believe, how to believe, even down to the words and phrases with which to express those beliefs.  And how do you feel about that?

Perhaps, it is time for all of us to come to grips with our own set of beliefs and life principles.  Yes, books are helpful, as are parents and coaches. 

But thinking a thing through with completeness is better.

Is it true?
Is it reasonable?
Is it real or an illusion?
Is it fear-based?

Use these as guidelines as you THINK.


Something to think on,

You Can't Change Others


You Can’t Change Others

Try as we might, we can’t change others.  Oh, we can cajole, we can encourage, we can nag, we can brow-beat, we can put down, we can harp, but we can’t change anyone.

THEY hold the key to that door.  If they change, it is because of a decision on their part to do whatever the changing is that needs doing.

Just thought someone might need to read this today.

What Type of Person Are You


What Type of Person Are You?

That’s an interesting quote over there on the right.  Of course
it’s a play on what is commonly called The Golden Rule – Do Unto Others as You Would Have Others Do Unto You.

Here’s the people I want to meet.
Encouragers
Honest
Faithful friends
Good sense of humor
Respectful

Who do you want to meet?
