Weather Rain Or Shine ?

Greetings Everyone 

Me personally I love rainy weather especially if I have a good rain coat and umbrella.  I love walking in the rain hearing the “DRIP DROP PLITITIE PLOT” on my umbrella. 

 I enjoy walking the streets and only having silence as my companion, since most people prefer to stay inside in rainy weather.  

The weather these last few days made me wonder, and what I was trying to understand was. Rain is a wonderful thing for the universe, since rain brings us fresh drinking water and helps make food grow etc., I’m sure I can go on and on. 

 But with all the good the rain brings it accompanied with the nuisance of no sun, getting all wet, (besides when it gets outs of hand that can cause flooding and death).

So why is that that such a great gift to the universe comes in such a wrapping to make people actually complain when receiving this great gift shower?

A while back listening to the Success magazine CD that comes included in each issue, I listened to Tavis Smiley being interviewed about his new book Fail Up.  He explained how the people that achieved success in life, usually their success was due to having failed beforehand, and from the failure, by chance or by learning from their mistakes reached greater success  -you can follow this link to read the article http://www.success.com/articles/1605-information-power .

Now this understanding that long lasting success usually comes with overcoming challenges, taking control of yourself, staying focused, etc., this lesson is a vital one, to those who are on the beginning of the journey looking to achieve success to whatever success means to them.

I can even venture to say that this concept of failing and struggle is in the foundation of this world, a big part of happiness is because there is sadness that walks beside it, beauty is appreciated more because there is ugliness to measure up against. 

The real beauty of a sunny day is when there is a rainstorm preceding it.   So I can only say, next time it rains listen closely to the message the rain is trying to tell you.

DRIP DROP PLITITIE PLAT TODAY WILL BRING A GLORIOUS SUNNY TOMORROW!!!

The best of success and if you liked what you read please spread the message.

Blue Eyes Or Grey Eyes- Part 2

Part 2

We started off this article with Charles Hannels words from his book Master Key System, about how the eyes of a person show their nature, be it a happy nature be it a sad nature etc. 

The question that I threw out to you all was, does this mean that we have no choice in our actions since we are born with the natures that we have.

Well let’s get down to business and I will try to explain my view on this subject and trust me, this question has been churning in my head since I have been a teenager.

From the moment a baby enters this beautiful and intriguing world, no one could agree more, that the child has no say on what ,where and how it came about.

For starters every person is born with his unique nature, personality and talents. I will refer to these as the Core Natures, and I may add that it’s fair to say that there is no one else in the universe that matches this exact blend of nature and talent. So right from the start a child has no choice in the matter what kind of nature and personality they will get.

Now there are added factors that influence a child in their journey to adult hood, and this is, what the child picks up from his parents and the people he is associated with, these I will refer to as Adoptive natures . 
How the parents and teachers, friends etc. act will have a dramatic part in the child’s view of the world and they integrate and become part of his personality and nature that they become almost as strong as the core natures.

To sum up, until this part of the journey of life, we can basically say that we are born with no choice in the natures or habits we acquire.

Just to clarify  my goal in this post is not to clarify our power of choice in choosing right or wrong, but more about our choice of nature being happy or being sad, being fearful or being courageous, being negative or being positive etc. that effect the outcome if we will achieve our goals and aspirations or we wont reach them. 

Core natures = the nature that you are born with, are your core natures, they are your strong points they are the true you, as I heard from one of my favorite coaches Chuck Bauer that even though a person is usually a blend of natures and personalities, from those he is born with, to those what got added as part of his society but under stress a person will always fall back to their dominating nature that is their core nature.  Your core nature and you are one, that’s your basic individuality that’s your real uniqueness.


 Once you recognize what they are, you can learn to use them to your advantage and achieve with them and not run away from them or try to change them. 
The other adopted natures have to be worked on and examined if they are compatible with your core nature and if needed adjust them to assist your core personality.

You have to nurture your natures and understand them and accept them and then, only then, can you attempt to take your aspirations and dreams and achieve them.

A lot of people are out in attack against themselves by criticizing themselves on their actions or behaviors, and this leads us to an important concept about nature tendencies. Natures are not bad or good, its how they are used that makes them look bad or look good. Each nature has good parts and vice versa, the work of a person is to tame and channel his personality so they shine and gleam like a diamond with all its curves and cuts and brilliants.

Once you understand these points I have mentioned you will come to feel and understand that the choice is up to you, how and what you are going to do to reach your goals.

I hope I clarified this subject a bit as I know how complex it can be, and there is a lot more to elaborate and expand, but as the saying goes Rome wasn't built in one day.

Good luck to all of you to finding and accepting your true self
