The highest form of control is internal resistance against external force. This control, defined as resistence, is self-mastery at its finest. The more you resist what others force (emotional, social, physical) upon you, the more self-control you create and the more courage you develop. 

Some days you feel like you are getting better. 

Some days you feel like you are stuck. 

Emotions are instant. Feelings are a chosen response. 

Choose how you want to feel, then adjust to match that choice. 

Talk is cheap. Talk is also priceless. Depends on the message. 

Enocuragement is priceless. 

Negativity is cheap.   

Anything that needs to be done, needs to be done right. 

Anything worth dreaming about, deserves big, wild dreams. 

Anyone worth having in your life, is worth taking care of. 

Ideas are born. 

Solutions are created and formed from ideas. 

You can actively pursue both giving birth and creating. 

Acitivity creates momentum. The more we do, the more strength we achieve to keep going in that direction. 

Courage is complex. 

Courage is doing the right thing in the face of fear, pain, or grief. 

Sometimes, knowing what is right is difficult. That is where the complexity comes in.

Yet, as we:

• strive to take the right risks, without taking on unnecessary risk…
• focus on our values…
• focus on our principles… 
• focus on the needs and wants others… 
• focus on truth… 

We can find what is right based on how we feel and the alignment between our heart and mind. Once we know what is right, courage is found in taking action. The more action we take that is right, the more courage we create.   

 

 

 

Help those who know they need it. 

Help those who don’t know they need it. 

Help those who help you. 

Help those who don’t help you. 

Help those who ask. 

Help those who don’t ask. 

Often, what we think we are learning is just a new form of remembering. 

Questions prove curiosity. 

The more right questions you ask, the more engaged both sides beecome. 

Engagement creates the space for real relationships and is the start of interest and influence.
