Greetings Everyone,
A paragraph in Charles Haanel’s book Master
Key system chapter 27 caught my attention and I quote “blue eyes indicate a
light, happy cheerful, active disposition. Grey eyes indicate a cool
calculating, determined disposition. Black eyes indicate a quick, nervous,
venturesome disposition. Brown eyes indicate sincerity, energy, and affection “
I’m a fast reader I don’t enjoy hovering over every word
in a book, I usually skim thru the book to have an idea what point the author
is trying to bring across.
Even novels, I enjoy having the thrill of the whole
story rather than hover over each particular elaboration and descriptive point
of the story that the author is trying to paint.
When speaking about self-help books or business books if
it catches my interest I usually go over the book a second time and knowing
what to expect gives me the opportunity to delve in to the parts that interest
me the most.
But this paragraph made my forehead crease in concentration
is this so? are we all an open book and are our natures and destiny carved in
stone?
But as I am well in to the journey of life,
experience and reading has shown me that it’s up to us all, how to channel our
emotions and natures. True that a lot of our circumstances in life
we do not choose, since we have no choice to what parents we are born to,
and to what society and upbringings we are exposed to, but here is the BIG
BUT.
Let me pause for a second to expand my thoughts, I feel
this is a discussion worth pursuing, since I have been struggling with this basic
question a long time. Do I have a choice in the actions and direction I have
been taking and can I change the direction I have been going. Even though I always
believed and felt it in my inner self that I can change if I want to, but in
actuality I didn’t see or feel it that way.
I think the thing that kept prompting me on even when
facing constant failure was due in part of me being a dreamer, as long as I can remember since I have
been a small child I have always dreamed of
some goal or something great I wanted to achieve. The wanting for something better and
bigger did not let me give in to failure and defeat.
I will leave this question open for you now what are your thoughts on this subject of will and choice, till my next blog
that I will continue Part 2 of what my
view is, how and what, do we contribute to our success and is it up to us
or not, because I believe that a great percentage of us struggle to some extent
with this question.
So long till my continuation to Part 2.
Wishing you all the success.
