“If you change the way you look at things…”

by startoverevie, posted in 2020, dear me, life, love, Purpose, Wayne Dyer

I could provably leave this post with this image and keep it moving. I’ve been thinking about this quote so much. Every time I repeat it, multiple experiences, relationships, things, food etc. come to mind. I have either experienced exactly this once I looked at them differently, or I realize that if I would have changed the way I looked at them, the situation would have changed, and the experience would have been a more positive one.

For the rest of this week I want to put this into practice, activel and intentionally. Because there is something amazingly powerful in this statement; better yet this statement is empowering, because the power to change we look at things lies within you and me.

IF I CHANGE THE WAY I LOOK AT THINGS
THE THINGS I LOOK AT CHANGE… -Wayne Dyer

Living Judgement Free (is hard!)

by startoverevie, posted in COMMITMENT, Growth, life, love, Purpose

Have you ever been intentional about not judging? Not judging yourself or other people? That has been my goal this week and OMG, I never thought about how much I judge. I judge people on TV, I judge other drivers, leaders, family, and of course myself.

As I was getting ready to write this post, I decided to look up the dictionary definition of “Judgement” and this is what it says:
“the ability to make considered decisions or come to sensible conclusions.” For the word “Judgemental” we get a very explicit definition of what I’m always doing:
“Having or displaying an excessively critical point of view.” I am this person… maybe not as bad as others, but judgemental I am.

My goal this week is to be very aware of my reaction to others and myself in terms of judgement. I want to be judgement free as a whole. Is it possible? We will see.

In the meantime, please don’t judge me 🙂

Purpose…

In my “purpose” I want to live.

I am on my way to achieving my dream and because I’m clear about what my purpose in life is my journey towards achieving that dream is much easier. My life’s purpose is to use the time I spend with people, in particular young people, and plant a seed of hope, and for those that have the seed already planted, I want to water them each time the need arises. I want to motivate and encourage people to look at how truly valuable they are and to understand that their existence in love makes this a better world to live in. Ultimately I want to teach that we have within us everything we ever need to push forward and push through to the other side to live each day in our “purpose”.

Have you figured out what your purpose is? Here are some quotes, images and resources to get you just a little closer and hopefully help you arrive upon that great responsibility we have as human beings which is to figure out our purpose and to live in it.
